Provo, May 19.-Professor n. L. Nell
son has conducted throughout the
whole year a very valuable course of
study in the Sunday school 1.-The Per-
sonality of Cod 1.-The Trinity" and
various subjects pertaining to the gos-
pei have been discussed with the great
est interest. Last Sunday he delivered
an excellent lecture on tn philosophi-
cal side of faith and repentance. This
course has been much appreciated by
those who have been able to follow it
through.
The class of 1901 held business meet
ing Tuesday TO decide upon something
suitable to leave in their academy home
as a memento of their school days. 1t
was the universal vote of the class
that they erect a monument to Brigham
Young, to stand upon the academy
grounds. The monument will likely
consist of bronze bust mounted upon
a marble pillar. The members of the
class now in school pledged themselves
TO give S. each year for the two years
remaining, the money when received to
be placed on interest and reserved for

FRESH TROOPS FOR ALASKA
BRITISH GOVERNMENT HAS
WITHDRAWN ITS OBJECTIONS
No New Posts In the Disputed Terri
tory Will Be Established - Gil
mate Bad For the Men.

washington, May 20-The war de-
partment turned over to General Shaf-
ter the complete direction of all mill
tary affairs in Alaska. The only gen
eral instruction sent to him has been
to relieve the soldiers who have been
stationed in Alaska by fresh troops, IL
being deemed unwise to attempt to re-
tain men in that climate for more than
one year at a time. Therefore two
companies of the Fourteenth infantry
now divided up among Dyea, SkagWay
and Wrangel island are ordered to be
withdrawn and sent to the Philippines.
The same order is given to detach-
ment of the Third artillery and the
Eighteenth infantry, now stationed at
st. Michaels near the mouth of the
Yukon.
The movement of troops needed in
making these changes has attracted
the attention of the British authorities,
who are naturally sensitive ABOUT the
presence of American troops within
that part of the territory, the title to
which is in dispute. Without going
to the length of protest the embassy
here has made discreet inquiry as TO
the purpose of our government, inti-
mating that it would be the part of
prudence for both sides to refrain from
taking any steps calculated 10 increase
the feeling of jealousy and suspicion
which now exist to some degree among
the miners of both nationalities scat
tered along the border.
The result of the inquiry has been to
convince the British that our govern
ment does not contemplate the occupa-
ton by military force of any of the
disputed territory. Under this con-
struction therefore the United States
forces will be retained at Skagway
and Dyea with the change in person
mel. No attempt will be made to es-
tablish new posts in the controverted
territory.
Colonel p. II. Ray is the officer
charged by the Or department with
the execution of ,ne details as to Alas

arrival at San Francisco of the diplo-
matte conditions which are to govern
him.

New York, May 20ffi.-Ferd w. Peck,
Paris exposition of 1900. reached New
York on the American line steamer st.
Louis today. He was accompanied by
Mrs. Peck and ]. H. McGibbons, direc-
tor of exploitation, of his staff. Mr..
Peck said:
During my brief stay in Paris much
was accomplished for our American
tive period of our task. The plans of
all the United States buildings have
been approved by the French authori-
ties, though many changes were made
in them to conform to the require
ments of the French government and
to meet the limitations of our appro-
priation. Work upon these buildings
will begin Immediately.
There will be five buildings in the
main grounds and two in the Bots de
Vincennes. the annex of the EXPOSE
ton, which will be made most import
ant as a part of the whole Our pa
vilion will be the only expensive build
ing we will contract. This will be on
the banks of the Seine, alongside the
structures Of about thirty other ma
tions, with Austria on one side and
Turkey on the other. Our buildings
will be annexed on the main structures
built by the French administration, and
will be for exhibit purposes only. These
will include annexes to the main ag-
ricultural building adjoining the Amer
lean section, an annex to the manufac-
turers' building In the Quincenes, an
addition to the forestry building; also
to the merchant marine building, whose
water transportation models will be
exhibited with our weather bureau.
For Railroad Exhibit.
"At Vincennes we will build a struc-
turc for American machinery in oper-
alton. We will divide with the French
exposition the cost of the building for
railroad exhibit and for automobiles.
We secured a site upon which our BIZ
cycle manufacturers will erect the
beautiful structure.
1.-The Bots de Vincennes is about
six miles from the main grounds. and
will be accessible by railroads and by
the Seine river, connecting with a
tramway for one mile, which latter
route will be known as the American
route the boats and cars carrying the
American flag. l believe a very large
proportion of the visitors to the eX-
position will go to Vincennes, as it will
be made prominent and most attract
i've, and the trim especially the river
route, will be delightful.
