their interest in the Transvaal gold mines

Perhaps the same question might aPPro-
priateIy be asked OF the United States In their
great sacrifice OF lie and tremendous expen-
Iiture OF money with Cuba and the Philip.
pines, TO say nothing OF the war with Spain.
LOOKS wAKLIKE. .'.

many, and Japan, each have numoer OF
war ships in Chinese waters TO guard thelr
interests and protect life and properly from
mob violence now wagipg war in the Chlnese
Empire Trouble Is evidently brewing be.
