into curry of excitement, says the St.

called into one OF the recitation-rooms
and put through a rigid examination
about the humber of callers each had
and description Of each caller. They,
were told that ii was highly improper
to receive a caller from out of the city,
and that many of the young men of the
city were not proper persons with
whom to associate. go r..
1t was also considered. highly i'm
proper to receive call which was Of
more than 20 minutes duration. In all
over dozen questions were required to
be answered. all Of which were in regard
to the subject of gentlemen callers. ..
A number OF rules were given to the
young ladies, which they were told they
must obey. Among them was one for
bidding the same young men to call
upon them more than three times a
year. and then the call must be purely
formal and not exceed is or 20 minutes.

SLIM PICKING
For Gold Seekers in the Vicinity of
Kotzebue Sound.

Port Townsend, Wash, Aug. ia
letter received here announces the ar
rival at Kotzebue Sound, July IA, of the
steam schooner Elk, which sailed from
this port early in June with party of
prospectors for the mouth of the Nc
Kenzie river. The Elk made the run
from Dutch Harbor to Kotzebue Sound
in seven days, arriving there July IA.
The letter states that there are more
than 500 people on the sound and that
already provisions are scarce.
The schooner had two years supplies
for fifteen men for which a handsome
figure was offered. Parties have com
menced prospecting in the mountains
and along the various streams empty
ing into Kotzebue sound but no strikes
have been reported. Many who are
short of supplies are making prepara-
lions to return south.
The only gold reported from the
vicinity of Kotezbue sound this season
is about S15 600 which was in possession
of three men who had arrived at Dutch
Harbor Just before the sailing of the
Elk. They had exhausted their supply
of provisions and came to Dutch Har-
Dor in the hope of replenishing their
stock. They refused to give the exact
location of where they have been work
ing.
The following vessels were reported
in the vicinity of Kotzebue sound on
Julv IA: United States revenue cutter
Bear, Laurel, Evelyn Johnson and
TOvaI.

HOW 1T HAPPENED.
Englishmen Claim Share in the Sue
cess ST the War.

london. Aug 15.-The Times, this
morning. in a special article reviewing
the operations of the HispanO-American
war, says:
1.-THE fact that the war was brought
to such a speedy end was due primarily
to the single cause of Spain's naval col
lapse The vigOr shown by the Amer
quality of the naval OfHcers-Qualities
inherited from the mother country
suficed to cOunteract the effects of
Americas unreadiness. The manner
in which a large number of warshipS
and auxiliary vessels were rapidly
equipped and manned, together with
the conspicuous ability with which the
lied. was supplied and handled is ex-
tremeIy significant.
ut is impossible to speak in the same
terms of the military measures The
causes of the failure of the war depart
nent to rise to the emergency are not
vet fully known. 1t will be interesting
to see whether the American people will
demand an investigation. Before San
tiago. as before SebastOpOl, in the Cri-
and hardships were inflicted upon the
troops and in both cases disaster was
averted by the gallantry of the officers
and men.
'eWhile it is clear that the command
of the sea is more than ever important,
naval commandments of coast defenses
are less effective than they were in
Nelson's days.
THAT they were recently attempted
on a considerable scale is probably due
to the desire to give American seamen
and gunners practice rather than to
any special prediction on the part of
the American naval officers"
