sRHE automobile girl is the new girl
of the season. Each summer brings
its novelty-the tennis, golf or
j mountain maid-but none more
catching than the prettily gowned
creature who, in bright attire, sits aloft
above a whirring dynamo and guides the
destinies of the new steed. which, though
less than year old. is driving the poor
old horse, once cherished, from the field.
It is simple enough to be an automobile
girl, say you. if the vehicle is provided
But when you know the truth you will
admit that it takes courage as well as
possession: that it requires nerve and wis
dom to guide the strange, hOrseless thing,
and when courage, nerve and wisdom are
all provided. with their small essentials,
such as activity, strength and will, there
must be added prettiness or the automo-
bile girl will not be a success.
1t is only a little more than year since
the Countess de Castellane, an American
girl abroad, appeared upon the boulevard
in her motor carriage and with the lever
in hand and tiny foot upon the brake,
guided the carriage down the street,
through the Bots and home again with
out accident, stopping en- route to pick
up the Count her husband, who settled
back in the cushions and watched his
wife contentedly. The Countess wore a
gown of deep scarlet, with a scarlet hat
trimmed with black. thus supplying that
touch of ebony which makes Paris cos
tune so chic.
Next we heard of the automobile red,
that dark, rich red which seemed at
tached to the automobile in some subtle
way. Then came the automobile hat, a
turn-back affair and soon there were au-
tomobile gloves of white, with black
stitching. From all this beauty came
forth the automobile girl
But she did not long remain French

A TAClT UNDERSTANDING
In Regard to the Alaskan Boundary

Countries.

Washingto July S. Ambassador
Choate has not communicated to the
state department the result of any repre-
sentations he has made to Lord Sails
bury respecting the modus vivendi under
his instructions of yesterday. Although
it is believed almost hopeless to expect
a successful outcome of direct negotia-
tions with London, it is not regarded here
as inevitable that a hostile clash will
follow the failure to secure a modus
vlveldi. Confidence is expressed in the
sutficiency of arrangements, backed by
the sound common sense of the officials
of th,. United States and Canada now in
the disputed territory in Alaska to pre-
vent a collision.
AS a matter of fact, the United States
and Great Britain have been actually
working under tacitly understood
modu.s vivendi. The existence of an un-
derstanding on this point is manifested
in the ready acquiescence by the United
States government in the suggestion by
the British foreign office that it nigh.

The Tennis Experts.

Chicago, July S.-The annual tennis
tournament to decide the championship
of the west in both singles and doubles
began today at the Kenwood country
club. The Kenwood will continue for a
week. In all 67 players are entered, and
among them are the best in the country.
Never before, with one exception, have
so many entered for championship hon
ors in a tennis tournament. The excep-
ton was at Newport five years ago, when
81 players participated. Some players
have entered who have not engaged in
championship contests for at least two
years. Prominent among them is Carr
Neil, who held the championship prior to
the time when it was won by the present
holder, Kreigh Collins. At the kenwood
club there are % courts, and they have
been put in the very best condition. The
entries in doubles have not yet been
given out, but Secretary Gardner says 2S
teams will compete. The value of the
prizes aggregate over $500. Hackett and
Allen, the Yale champions are looked
upon to make a strong bid for the honor
in doubles.

Klondike'S Output.

Tacoma. Wash, July S.-Dr. O. L. Will
coxson of Chicago, who has arrived from
Dawson, brings authentic news of an
enormous cleanup that took place in the
Klondike during June. During the first
half of June pack trains arrived at Daw-
son daily from Bonanza Eldorado, Sui
phur and Hunker creeks, each bringing
in 100000 to $1,5O0,OOO in dust. One big
pack train made several trips from Pro-
fessor Lippey's claim on Eldorado, which
produced over two tons of gold dust.
The largest nuggets yet found in the
clean-ups. One from claim No. 4, below
on Bonanza. Weighed 601a ounces, and
was valued at $96S. A still larger one,
but impregnated with quartz, was found
on Gold hill. 1t weighed over 1O6 ounces,
and is valued at $1.S04 Steamers We're
leaving Dawson almost daily for ST.
Michaels. bearing rich Klondikers and
their dust. The steamer Robert Kerr
leaving Dawson on June 20. carried over
$3.0G0,000. He thinks that $5.000.0O0 and
their owners will arrive on the first
steamers from ST. Michaels.
Coming out, Wilcoxson learned of two
important discoveries. one on Thirty
Mile river, where 81 per pan was found.
and the other on Big Salmon. where VIM
ter dumps averaged $3S per day per man.
Wilcoxson goes home but will return
north in August.

Texas Loss is Large.

st. Louis, July S.-A special to the Re-
public from Caldwell, Texas. says: E,s-
Inmates made by competent cotton buy
ers as to the damage resulting to the cot
ton in Brazos badly tax the credulity of
those unfamiliar with the flood condi-
tions. Not less than two hundred square
miles of cotton bearing land have been
flooded. Every acre of it would have pro-
duced a big bale. Basing the loss on five
cent figures the crop destroyed on these
plantations was worth almost $4,000 900.
Well informed persons are of the opinion
that this unprecedented rise in the Bra
Zos has cost the people of Texas little less
than 1000, 900. Thousands of mules have
been drowned, all of the domestic ami
mails, rented houses and negro quarters
have been swept away, the gins are near
ly all ruined, and hundreds of plantation
stores carrying a big stock of general
merchandise are under water. Not a
bridge has escaped and not a train has
passed over the Santa Fe railroad be-
tween Brebham and Milano for week.
