BOLD ATTEMPT
AT BURGLARY
Residence of George G.. Mahy En-
tered Yesterday Morning-Vis-
itor Was Frightened Away.

An attempt was made early yester-
day morning to burglarize the resi-
dence of Secretary of the Young Mems 8
Christian association. George G. Mahy,
but the would-be burglar was fright
ened off by Mr.. Mahy, before he could
secure any plunder. Mr.. Mahy fired
a revolver at his visitor, who made an
exceedingly rapid retreat the moment
he perceived him.
The attempt was made at 3 o'clock
yesterday morning. His sick child
had caused Mr.. Mahy to leave his bed
to attend to the little one. AS he was
walking about the room he heard a
noise on the ground floor. and seizing
a revolver he noiselessly descended the
steps and there perceived his early
visitor. The latter saw Mr. Mahy
at the same instant, made dash for
the door and disappeared from sight.
The police We're notified, and Detect
i've Moir is now working on the case.
Mr.. Mahy but recently moved into
this house, which was burglarized Just
year ago when occupied by T.. A.
Hintermester. The man who COM
mitted the crime was arrested and is
now serving term at the peniten-
tiary.

EUROPE VS..
ENGLAND
Russian View of the
Crisis.
A SIGNIFICANT THESIS
Frank Statement of What Great
Britain May Expect From
Her Neighbors.


Vladimir Holmstrem and Prince.
Ookhtomsky under the title Great
Britain on the War-path," in the jan
uary number of the, North American
Review give their views of the cause
of the intense European hostility to.
England. and prophesy European inter-
vention. The following Is the SUBJ
stance OF the article:
In 1896, when the English started on
their famous Dongola expedition, l
wrote a leading article in the st.
Petersburg Viedomosti, under the En-
glish title, ,"The Robbers of Posterity."
In it l endeayored to demonstrate that
it was a part of a far-reaching scheme
which involved an advance into the
very heart of Africa, intended to make
the. English masters of the whole
course of the Nile, thus giving them
in reality complete control of Eastern
Africa, and rendering their pressure on
| the Mediterranean and the countries
| bordering on it quite formidable,
| Not only have the English, in the
course of the last. three years, acquired
/ the whole of the Nile Valley, planting
their flag in Khartoum, but, likewise,
after bringing matters to the verge OF
war in connection with the Fashoda
incident, they have extended their
claims over regions far in the interior
! to the west of the Nile, acquiring by
a convention forced on Traiice Daffsai
and Kordofan, and lying in wait for an
occasion of expanding their dominion
in the eastern direction by the conquest
of Abyssinia.
The sinister significance of the Brit.
| ish successes mentioned above lies in
the fact that all these achievements oi
British diplomacy and military power
are parts of vast preconceive6
scheme. The present Transvaal war is
but the realization of one of it's details;
and that it is unfairly and unscrupu.
lously waged against a State whose po
litical and international status is quite
clearly defined only shows the exten
to which the bad faith and mischievou!
purpose of England may go. Such i!
the Russian view of the present crisis
in South Africa.
1t is no secret that the greatness o
the British Empire dates from the con
quest of India. To develop communica
tons between this vast dependency ant
the metropolis, to shorten the way
that lead to India, has been the chic
preoccupation of generations of British
statesmen. Such an idea is by n,
means in itself discreditable, but, un
fortunately, England's greed has le'
her people to set no limits to their am
bition and to fulfil their historic tasl
with utter disregard of the vital inter
: ests of other nations and races. In he
) efforts TO establish the security of Indi
she has thrown net over the States @
Europe (as well as over alien races i
2 other parts of the world, though in
J justice in this case does not count, &C
? cording to the code of the Christia
i civilization of today, a net that
