NEWS READINGS IN DAWSON.
An EnterprislnE Man Who Made 1900
by Reading to the Miners
All About the Maine.

Claude Smith tells a novel story
about the way the news of the blowing
up of the Maine was received in Dawson
City. An enterprising Yankee got hold
of the first copy of a newspaper con-
tanning the account. He made arrange
ments for getting the news abroad in
this businesslike fashion, says the Port
land Oregonian.
Renting a vacant saloon building, he
caused bulletins to be issued giving an
inkling of the news that had been re-
eeived, most judiciously worded, and
announcing that the full account would
be read III public i'll the evening in tho
mammoth one-story log editice next
the Blue Ruin dive on Birthstone street;
admission, two pennyweights of gold
ranging in value from $50 to S1.75.
At the appointed time the miners
gathered to hear the news, and 200 or
more OF them tossed their gold dust
into the doorkeeper's scales and crowd
ed inside. The reading was satisfac-
tory, if the news was not, and there was
no grumbling about the investment.
No less than $500. and probably much
more, was realized from that idea. The
reader was liberal sort of chap, and
he read the other news in the paper
merely as a courtesy to the assembly.
This practice grew as the nation
neared war. and after the war began.
and 1t is a frequent occurrence for a
public reading of important news to
be given IL Dawson at so much per head
for admission. And the cooped-up men
pay for nothing more cheerfully than
for war news. Their liberaiity in this
matter is sometimes taken advantage
of, and stale stuff palmed off for news,
and even the Daw son City public rs dis
eliminating in this particular, and is
strongly disposed tC resent the swindle.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The danger of
war with the Philippine insurgents was
discussed by the secretary of war, the
acting secretary Of the navy and the
president. The gravity of the situation
was acknowledged and preparations are
being made to hasten reinforcements to
the Americans at Manila.
By the terms of the armistice with
Spain neither side can move any troops
Into disputed territory, but orders have
been given for all the troops in the Pre-
sldlo at san Francisco, about 1000, to
proceed at once to Honolulu. The trans
ports carrying them are not to return.
1t Is believed by those who should know
that these transports will not stop at
Honolulu longer than day and will at
once steam across the Pacific to Manila.

The governments severe measures to
