England Is GAY.

London, Feb. 26.-The fierce fighting
that has made the past week memorable
in the history of Great Britain, has, in
spite OF the heavy casualties that accom-
panied it, acted as an exhilarating tonic
upon the nation. 1t is almost with cheer
fulness that the people of Great Britain
are taking their punishment, for now
there is something to show for it, in pleas
ing contrast to the weeks of waiting and
suspense that scarcely ever passed without
largely adding to the death roll and never
seemed to bring Great Britain's forces
nearer to the goal. Hand in hand with
the relief of Kimberley and the daily
expected relief of Ladysmith, has come
the relief of London With the fate of
those beleaguered places off their minds,
with the national honor free once more to
take its chances on a fair fight in the
field, London has evolved itself from the
depressing gloom that for months over
hung it. There is now talk of balls, din
ners and entertaining; there are brighter
looks in the faces of the crowds that
throng the streets, and even the women
seem to have brought out gayer gowns.
Apart from the dramatic condition that
came over the situation in South Africa,
the event of the week was Joseph Cham
berlain's vigorous, almost vicious, self-de-
Tense in the house of commons. The col
onial secretary met the accusations and
demands with one of those terrible fight
ing speeches for which he is noted. With
venomous retort and scorn he once more
denied completely in the Jameson raid,
denied the so-called revelations of the In
dependence Beige, and with strong phrases
resented the opposition's agitation as a
personal attack upon his much prosecuted
self. In the heat of the debate, and with
an overwhelming majority ready to cheer
every bitter phrase, Mr.. Chamberlain car
ried all before him. But after reflection
many of those who thoroughly believed
Mr.. Chamberlain to be absolutely I'M
tainted, and who place no Importance
upon the letters stolen from Mr.. Hawkes.
ly, counsel for the British South African
company, regretted that the colonial Sec
rotary took up the matter in such a per-
sonal spirit.

London, Feb. 26.-The plague in India
continues virulent. There were $50 vic.
Tins in Bombay City during the week
ending February Is. With over 8l,0OO,-
600 of people affected by the famine and
only about 100000 in receipt of relief,
India seems in a bad plight, though the
death rates over the $4,000 square miles
of the famine area are decreasing. The
Indian government has issued resolution
approving Professor Haffkins' anti-plague
innoculation, and the viceroy, Lord Cur
zon, is advocating it throughout India
and is paying high tribute to the professor.

in coarse gold. Outside of Anvil, Glacier
and Dexter creeks and Snow gulch, the
prospecting was only superficial. No l

the result of four months sluicing. The
largest nugget was found in this claim,
valued at $4lS. Men were sinking holes
through the ice off the beach in December
TO find if there was gold in the bottom
of the ocean. Cummings took the biggest
nugget pile from the beach quarter of
mile from Nome. He is said to have
realized $4,000 for his seasons rocking.
The rich spot on the beach, the split

was all worked out and the best pay OF

was taken out. Little development work
has been done in the tundra, so its value
was unknown.
