large number OF the young men here were

Canadians and they think it would prove
a favorite sport here ii the game we're

War rumors were the talk OF the town
for the p, st few days. A number OF fic
tit,ous stories concerning war were circu-
lated and were SAID to have originated in
the fertile mind OF some broker in the
eastern stock market who wanted to
create panic 10 coppers. The rumor
didn't take here worth cent and failed
to brighten any one as nothing confrma-
tory was received. The rumors we're
widely circulated in the mines and about
the shops, but there proved to be no
truth in them. One story hal it that
Spain had declared war against the
Uoited States and another was that
England had declared it against Russia.
