Apropos OF all this. and other. news from
Paris. we take this opportunity to express
our admiration of the extremely able and
interesting news service from Paris and from
London which The Chicago Tribune has
been running daily in its columns for several
months past. Several of the New York dailies
have excellent cable letters from London and
sometimes other European capitals in their
once week. the brief dispatches which they
get on the other days OF the week not amount
Ing 10 much in the way of an Ineligible and
adequate presentation of European news.
The Chicago Trbune's foreign SERVICE
signed Grace Corneau' from Paris and
H j. Wiigham' from London, taking it
all the week around. is a long way ahead of
the foreign news service OF any of the New
York papers.
One or Two of the New York papers have
had for years deservedly high reputation
terest from foreigi. parts. and the public will
not forget its indebtedness 10 them on that
account. But II IS heyeaa dispute that the

Manila. Sept 4. via San Francisco,
Oct 1.-THE army in Luzon has lost
more men during the past fortnight by
drowning than by bullets. All the little
streams which in dry weather We're

rivers. With unexpected and treacher-
GUS currents and eddies. Ten coiored
soldiers of the Twenty fourth infantry
We're drowned at the Lariquina river on
the 22d of August in a drift exactly
duplicating the loss of five soldiers in
the Pasig river three months ago. Sol
diers are conveyed across streams on
bamboo RATS, whose motive power is a
rope stretched between the banks. In
both cases the ropes broke. the RATS

Four men of the Third infantry sta
toned at Quingua We're drowned IN the
Bagbag river before daylight on the
morning of the 18th. when the regiment
was starting against the rotee OF Pillar,
which was threatening the railroads
near Malolos. Corp Peter Larson was
the hero of this accident. He was
drowned in a brave effort to save 9TH
ers. Lieut. Chauncey b. Humphreys
rescued several of his men by great ef-
forts and was himself nearly drowned
during the work. The regiment started
from Qungua at o'clock in the morn

milton and haversacks. The river is
wide and shallow, and most of the dis
lance was fordable, but the current had
become so swift that many We're car
ried off their feet. Seventeen We're
compelled to drop their guns to get
across. Corp. Larson had reached the
farther shore when he heard the cries
of the drowning men, and plunged back
with his gun still strapped to his back.
He carried one man of his company TO
safety and turned back a second time.
He was heard to say: Il don't think |

ANOTHER ALASKA TALE.



Capt. A. j. Patch, of this city, who
left here for Alaska eighteen months
ago. is in the city, arriving a few days
since in Chicago from the land of gold
and towering mountains. Capt. Patch
is interested in steam dredge boat
that has been working on the lower
Yukon river. When he left Anvil City.
In the Cape Nome district. three weeks
ago, the beach, where gold has been
discovered in the sand, was white with
tents. The Cape Nome gold district
was discovered last fall and fourteen
of Capt. Patch's party have gone there.
He says that from $40 to $50 per day
is cleaned up. The beach for certain
distance from the ocean is government
property and 1t is not necessary to file
claim. The captain expects that there
will be 10000 people at Cape Nome by
next August. 1t Is an untried district
of Alaska and 1t is thought that a
large amount of the yellow stuff will
be found But he says that not one
person in hundred brings dollar
back. In Illustration of this he says
that fifty-seven boats loaded with gold
seekers went up the koyakuk river
1000 miles but did not get anything
He would advise all who have the gold
fever and who intend going to Alaska
to buy return ticket and not take any
chances of having to starve next win

LOAN AT Low INTEREST.
LIT. Dodge Messenger.l

ut. Dodge Messenger.l
j. f. Drake of this city made a mort
gage loan on Monday on farm in Clay
township which. so far as we have
learned, Is at the bottom of the market,
and is worth publication to show how
cheap and abundant money is when
the security is absolute. The loan was
for $4,000, to run for five years, with OPP
ton of paying any time after one year.
The rate of interest was Az per cent,
net. One year ago that loan would have
cost per cent, two years ago it would
have cost ~ per cent. and it would
have been the legal rate prior to that
time, with nobody especially anxious to
make the loan. This loan at Az per cent
to the borrower passes through two
agencies from the loaner to the borrow
er, SO that the loaner, which is Massa-
chusetts estate, does not net over 3 per
cent.
TYPHOID FEVER IN OTTUNIWA.
COttumwa Courier.l
DR.. j. +. Herrick, city physician to
the board of health, In presenting his
monthly report to the board last eve
ming prefaced it with extended remarks
on the necessity of guarding against
contagious and infectious diseases. In
his report, which was published in
last Fridays issue of the Courier, there
were fifteen cases OF typhoid fever un-
der the head of communicable dis
eases, and the doctor stated last eve.
ming that he was quite certain that at
least three or four cases have developed
within the lastfew days. He attribut-
ed this condition to improper sanitation
and lack of the Observance of hygi-
enic laws. The physicians of the city
could, in great measure, prevent the
spread of this disease by giving advice.
where it is necessary, and the people
themselves can prevent it by observing
precautions such as cleaning their wells
or taking every care to purify their
supply of drinking water.

TRIAL CONNECTION.
Huntington Hawkeye, 1Oth.l
Yesterday morning, bright and early,
Chief Engineer Willis, of the Nlusca
tine North and South Railway began
his survey of the line for the construc-
ton of the new railroad, the Iowa and
Mississippi Valley, from Burlington to
Elrick. the now proposed junction point
with the Iowa Central.
Engineer Willis has with him force
of eight or ten men and they began
yesterday with the proposed terminals
between Front and Main streets, near
High. and will proceed north and
around the bluff and thence almost due
north across the bottom BY tomorrow
the difficult work around the bluff will
have been completed and then the yard
room in Wightman's addition. this. side
of Flint creek, will occupy their atten-
ton. From that point on the work will
be comparatively easy and rapid.
The now proposed line of the raod is
shown In the map herewith reproduced.
On the return from California Presi-
dent Stewart. of the Muscatine South
and North road, and General Man
ager Martin, Of the Iowa Central, by
which time it Is expected that En-
gineer Willis will have completed his
survey, it is predicted that the actual
work of construction will be ordered.
