Schley, who is about to assume COM
mand OF the South Atlantic squadron.

and had long conference with Acting

ship. giving her route and destination.
have not yet been issued, and il is said
q definite determination has not been
reached on this point.
The admiral's visit led to renewed
conjectures as to the probability of his
going to some of the South African
ports. As to this, however. the admiral
declined TO say a word. and there was
the same reticence throughout naval
circles. 1t is understood. however, that
the governments general line of policy
as to the South African war will be
made known to Admiral Schley before
he sails, as thereafter he will be the
executive officer in closest touch with
that field.

ASPHALTUM IN THE LAKE.
Proposition Which Is to Receive At
tention In Near Future.


For several months past Jeremiah
asphaltum proposition. located on the
north shore of the Great Salt Lake.
which at one time created quite a stir.
1t will be remembered by some that a
few years ago men engaged in boating
Suano from Gunnison island sought a
landing on the west side of Promon-
tory mountain, near the point where it
begins to penetrate the lake, and were
surprised to find oil floating on the
water; that on approaching the shore
they ran into sand mounds which had
accumulated about the place where the
oil dubbed up, and that before leaving
they located the find. The outcome of
the discovery was that Mr.. Schemes,
was given a bond on the property and
force of men were put to work to de-
termine its value A pipe was driven
down by hand through a blue clay for
distance of 12S feet, when a hard cap
ping was encountered which arrested
further progress. During the work per-
formed little strata were encountered,
from which, Mr.. Schenck relates. a.
small flow of pure asphaltum was OBJ
tanned, sometimes mixed with petrol
cum, but the main source of supply
was never reached. For several months
past Mr. Schenck's time has been so
fully occupied with his mining and
other interests here and in California
and Oregon as well, that he has not
been able TO give the oil-asphaltum
proposition much attention, but as soon
as he can get around TO it he proposes.
he says, to put diamond drill at work
and get under the hard Gaping which
put an end to his former work and
learn just what there is beneath His
theory is that an explosion of gases
beneath the capstone had cracked it,
and that the small assures thus created
had allowed the material found in the
clay above TO escape. the oil finding its
way to the surface. AT any rate, he
says he proposes. as soon as he can
conveniently. TO demonstrate Just what
there is there.

! friend, that an Esquimaux is an Esqui-

as such. That he considers whale

Il lived among the Beers nearly four
years and found them a gentle, hospi-
table people, but bitter against the

at their hands" What Beers did you
live among, Mr.. Geoghegan. and whta,
in the name of common sense, what
wrongs had the Beers you lived among
ever suffered at the hands of the En-
glish? l have enlightened you on a
point or two. SO far. now please be a
good fellow and eniighten me on this
point.
How do you happen to know, Mr..
Geoghegan, if the Uitlanders had been
given the right to vote. their first eff
fort would be to depose the government
of Pretoria and annex the state to the
Cape Colony and the. British crown %

Isn't it his capital, his enterprise. his

Seriously, Mr. Editor. your reporter
must have made an error. / cannot
bring myself to believe that Mr.. Geo.

with the slightest pretense of intelli-
eence could have lived for any length
of time in that country and then write
as carelessly on the present situation
as Mr.. Geoghegan does. The gentle
man says. very confidently: This war
is the result of a personal matter be-
tween Mr.. Chamberlain and Cecil
Rhodes" 1.-The war was opposed by the
brightest minds in England: unless
some signal successes come to the Brit
ish arms soon there will be such a re-
vulsion of feeling in England as to wipe
the present ministry out of power and
