chairs are conducted in the universities
of England, Germany and France. re-

LOST HIS GUN.
Man Attempting Life of Japanese EN-
peror Disarmed.
(By Associated Press.l

(By Associated Press)
Vancouver. b. G., Dec. 3O.-Japanese
papers received by the steamer Athenian
tell of what appeared to be an attempted
assassination of the emperor by for
eigner named Thorsen.
This man, with an ex-member of
of the Japanese parliament, Tanaka
Sjoseo, waited for the imperial carriage
after the ceremony of opening the diet
had taken place.
The Japanese member wished to pre-
sent document to his majesty, and
threw off his coat and hat to approach
the carriage. AS he rushed forward
Thorsen also ran up with a pistol in his
hand, but before he could do anything
was overpowered and disarmed by the
soldiers of the guard.
1t is alleged that ThOrsen had an inter-
est in the document which the ia panese
was attempting to present to the emperor,
and that he br2ndished the weapon mere
ly to impress the Japanese with his inn
portance.
Thorsen is still in Jail, while the
Japanese was Professionally pardoned.

The governor of Montana has ap-,
pointed the undersigned as an auxiliary
committee of the Mckinley Memorial
association to manage, each in his re-
spective county. the solicitation and re-
ceipt of contributions, to erect at Cam
ton. Ohio, monument to the memory
of the late president, and to preserve the
same.
It has been thought desirable, on con-
sultation, that the duty of providing
facilities for gathering these contribu-
tions and designating the persons in each
locality who shall have charge of the
same, shall be committed in each county
to the committeeman from such county
hereinafter mentioned. 1t is desired to
afford to each citizen an opportunity to
contribute such sum as his means and
inclina ton dictate, not doubling that the
patriotism and generous impulses of our
people, seconded by that healthful re-
sentiment at the crime which stained the
opening year of the century, will induce
such an expression as will be creditable
to the new state which, in it's crea-
ton and admission, owed much to the
Astounding friendliness of Mr.. Mckinley.
1t was his cherished hope in his last
days to visit Montana and familiarize
himself with it's people and it's needs,
that he might wisely execute the great
duties which were given him to dis,
charge an ambition and hope cruelty
ended by tragedy decreed to be pill
lOried in history beside that of the first
great murder.
Each postmaster in the state, by re-
quest and designation OF the National
Mckinley Memorial association, is au-
thorized to act as an agent In the col
lection and receipt of contributions. Each
bank in the state is requested likewise
to act in the collection of contributions.
reporting likewise. AS it is especially
desirable that each community shall at
it's own door be afforded the opportunity
to contribute to this fund, the members
of the auxiliary committee is authorized
and requested, each in his county; to
designate some reliable person who will
accept this labor in each locality, to take
contributions in his neighborhood. for
warding the same to the county member
of this committee making the appoint-
ment. "
1t is confidently hoped that such ac-
tivity will be manifested as will enable
the committee to report creditable con.
tributiOn to the treasurer of the national
committee by the 18th day of January,
! 1902 the anniversary of the birth of Mr..

duty the committee invokes activity,

STARVING THE NAVY.
Hicks Beach Will Controvert the
Charges Against Him.
(By Associated Press

(By Associated Press.)
London. Dec 3O-Rumors are rife as
totthe intention of the treasury to starve
the navy on account of the cost of the
war in South Africa.
They are based on the assumption that
the six armOred ships which We're voted
last session to be built by contract, are
not to be placed out until the end OF
January.
While Sir Michael Hicks-B Beach keeps
a tight grip on the national purse, he
knows very well that he could not re-
main long in office, If, owing to his par
simony. the British navy fell below the
combined strength of any other two
navies in the world. and it is therefore
probable when parliament reassembles
next month he will be as readily able to
meet the charges which are now !evelled
against him as a year ago he was able
to meet the accusations that he was
starving the army in order to balance
the budget.

who have been in Holland. Belgium and

versation with Sir Thomas Upton in
London shortly before leaving.
sir Thomas told me-" said Mr.. Tams,
"that he would challenge for the cup
until he either won it or was convinced
that it could not be won.
II certainly think Sir Thomas is very
much in earnest and that his desire to
win the cup comes from sporting mo-
tives only. I wanted to get him to talk
about other things, but his heart is set
on that cup"

while taking out some rock from the ex-
cavation at Broadway and 1S9th streets.
one of the employees, who had formerly

the authorities.
An investigation demonstrated that the
gold could not be obtained on a paying
basis, owing to the limited amount pro-
duced.
