Great Britain and Germany

Berlin, April 2S.-Dr. Theodore Earth, the leader of the Freisinige party, has written an article for the May Contempor- ary review on the relations between Great Britain and Germany in which he shows that Germany's position as a world-power requires good relations with Great Britain and the United States. Germany's con- demnation of the Boer war, he declares, was not dictated by self-interest. but by the feeling that Great Britain had desert- ed her traditional peace policy.

When Sir Ashley Cooper lived In Broad

The room into which they were shown

dismissed without having seen the doc

his masters dignity, would say to disap-

ed on the following morning: II am not
sure that we shall be able to attend to
you, for our list Is full for the day, but il

THE ceiling Of the saloon was support

10 inches square, standing in a line par
allel with the counter Of the bar and
about two feet from It, The front of the
bar was crowded with customers, when
suddenly, to my establishment, they, one
and all, put down their glasses and hur-
riedly backed into the spaces between
the columns. At the same moment a shot
was fred from the street through the
giles with the front of the counter and
the columns.
THE bullet raked and splintered the
holdings of the counter front. but with
no other damage. The shot was returned
from the upper end Of the bar, and then,
for the first time, l became aware that
two men with leveled reyolvers were
shooting at each other through the sa-
loon.

protected by the wooden columns. The

was smashed. and my glass had part of

Thousands Bound for Cane soms Reeion.

Up to June 10, says the San Francisco
Argonaut, there have started or been
scheduled to start for Cape Nome u steam.
craft and 81 ships and schooners, with a
capacity of from 30 each to 200 or over.
Eight ships, with accommodations for
1000 each, are expected to make four
round trips. these vessels alone being
counted upon for at least 10000 passen,
gers into the North.
The rush has created activity in indus
trial circles. involving as it does increase
in freight transportation. Freight ships
go laden with tents, portable houses, coal.
lumber, food stuffs and machinery, repre-
senting the investment of enormous capi-
tai. One steamer recently carried from
San Francisco $350,0OO worth of min
ing machinery, and others have taken as
much Barges and steam tugs and sam
pans have gone to assist in lightering at
Cape Nome, for there is no port admitting
ships of more than eight-foOt draft.
Among the multitude seeking Nome are
men who have made millions and lost
them: men who have fortunes they will
endeavor to increase: but by far the
greater portion have little and never had
much.
Statements are made that Nome is the
richest gold camp ever discovered, that 1t
affords n chance for all; but similar state,
ments have been made concerning every
new camp. Marvellous yarns are spun OF
fortunes won in n day. All this must be
taken guardedly. Expenses are high. lOca-
tons scarce. labor will be plentiful, and
the value of territory not already staked
is conjectural.
