Yukon in the harness of electricity.
Standing in the Northwestern station
last night he took. out a pencil and
traced on map of Alaska the route
that will be followed in building the new

great Yukon valley. Incidentally, it will
be extremely valuable to commerce
and will connect the miners with the
outside world.
. Two hundred miles of the line will be
cable laid down in the ocean. Starting
at st. Michaels the cable will run to
Cape Nome, and from that gold bearing
beach across the Blight to Unalaska
Thence the telegraph will proceed

ROYAL VISITOR TO PARIS FAIR
HAS SECOND ENCOUNTER
WITH AN ASSASSIN.

An attempt on the life of the shah of
Persia, Muzaffer- Din. was made this
morning, but luckily 1T resulted in no
harm. A man broke through a line of
policemen as the shah was leaving his
apartments and tried to mount the royal
carriage step. He was seized and placed
under arrest.
He had a revolver in his hand, but as
soon as his intention was OWNED, the
police disarmed him before he was able to
fire.
AT the police station the man expressed
regret that he had been unable to carry
out his Intentions. He said: This is an
affair between me and my conscience

of policemen, overturning a bicycle officer
and jumped upon the royal carriage
steps. In one hand the man had cane
which he raised as though to strike, but
this movement was only intended to hide
his real purpose, for, in the other hand
he held a revolver. The attempted as.
sassination then came to an end. for the
grand vizier struck the weapon from the
mans hand and at the same time officers
caught his arm from behind and over
powered him. crowd of 400 people who
witnessed the attempted assassina ton
made rush towards the would-be inur-
derer and tried TO attack him, but there
were many police in the n-ighborho BOD

prevented the mob from doing violence to
the miscreant.
The prisoner was taken to the police
station.
The shah carried out his programme
for trip down the Seine to Versailles.
The would be assassin declined absolute
ly to give his name or his nationality.
He speaks but little, and that with
southern accent. The police believe him
to be an Italian. He is about 26 wears
o.d. Just before starting from the palace
the shah received a letter dated from
Italy, signed with an Italian name. but
rosted in Paris, announcing to him that
he would be assassinated to-day. The
police believe the man who attacked he
