INDIANS DYING
 FROM STARVATION
OirefuI Reports Sent to United States from Parts of
 Alaska

Port Townsend, Wash. September 25.- According to reports from Nome brought by the steamer Oregon the Indians of that section are threatened with starva- tion. During the past three months about 200 natives have visited Nome bringing furs to trade for supplies. As soon as their goods were disposed of. however, whisky peddlers got among them and they exchanged the proceeds of their camped on the beach, generally in a drunken stupor, allowing the season to pass in which they could lay in supplies of fish for use during the long winter period. Unless they are assisted by the government 1t is said suffering and star vation will surely follow.
 Destitute miners from outlying districts are arriving at Nome. The United States steamer Bear on August S1 landed eigh- teen men at Nome. These men were found on the beach at Kolzebue sound, penniless and out of supplies. They had for months been depending on what fish they could catch and game they could kill. This party joined in the rush to Kolzebue In 1898 and have been there ever since. They report that during three years they failed to find more than a few colors of gold.
 The Nome banks have given out an es- innate of the output of gold for that dis. trict for the season. They place the amount at $5,000000, which is only half a million more than last year.

STORMY VOYAGE,
New Vessel kronprinz Wilhelm Did
 Not Make Fast Time.

New York, September 25.-The new twin screw steamer Kronprinz Wilhelm ar rived in port today. She left Bremen on September r, and Southampton and Cherbourg on the 18th From the time of leaving Cherbourg harbor, the huge steamer plunged into head seas with heavy southwesterly gales. The sea broke over the steamers bow, smashing the forward rails stove in the deck houses and let water in the forward sa- looms.
 A companlonway was smashed also. The weather was so rough the steamer was obliged to run under reduced speed for three days and half. The screws were reduced to fifty revolutions. The great steamer was unable under these conditions to make any attempt at record breaking and most of the time 9500 horse power was used.
 However the speed increased when the weather moderated and on the 23d she made 564 knots and on the 2Sth she made 795 knots, which l-.e chief engineer claim ed to be the best days run ever made on an initial voyage.
 The time of passage was six days ten hours, fifteen minutes. Total distance 3o45 knots; average speed per hour, 1874 knots
 The Ktonprinz is built on the general lines of the Kaiser Wilhelm Der Groosse, but Is fifteen feet longer.

CHINA AND JAPAN
Exchange Greetings and the Feeling
 Is Now Most Cordial.

London, September 25.-The Times. in an editorial today, says there is nothing theatrical about the exchange of mes sages between the Emperors of China al d Japan, yet 1t may prove of greater and more lasting importance in eastern politics than more ostentatious perform ances. There is, says the Times, a ring of relative sincerity in many passages of Emperor Kwang-Su's letter not observ- able in all his recent autographs.
 The most progressive of the Chinese viceroys and governors are, says the editorial quite sensible to the services Japan has rendered to China. They know that Japan owes her present greatness to the skill with which she borrowed all that suited her from western civili- zation, and they have an instinctive feel ing that China cannot attempt to find better guidance than that of Japan. To Japan belongs the credit of being the first power to tell the Chinese plainly that permanent peace in Asia will be best gained by speedy reform. The edi- torial concludes: Her (Japan's) manly, statesmanlike action stands in rather re- markable contrast to that of the great powers. who deliberately ignored this vi tai aspect of the Chinese question throughout the Pekin negotiations"

An Excellent impression.

Berlin, September 25.-The enthusiastic welcome accorded the German soldiers re- turning from China at Trieste has made an excellent impression in Berlin. It is also commented upon in most favorable terms by the Austrian press generally.

 'The close alliance between the two states and the intimate friendship be- tween the two monarchs, the sist CTS of the German tongue, have secured for Europe peace of nearly twenty years. This alone Is sufficient to justify a warm reception of the troops of neighboring state"

"The Burqomaster."

On next Monday and Tuesday and Tuesday matinee that jolly old "Burgo- master,' and his frivolous, witty and clever coterie of mirth provokers, will play a return engagement at the Jeffer- son. This merry melange is one of the musical comedy successes of the sea- son.
 There Is much sprightliness of humor in the dialogue, and rather high grade of composition in the lyrics more artis- tic than one would naturally expect in work of this sort. The theme of the play Is sufficiently quaint to be diverting, and the extravagances indulged in offer much opportunity for effective costum- ing and staging. There are no less than seven scenes, an innovation in a pro- duction of this sort
 Judging from its last appearance here, the audience was quick to respond to the

Special to Times Republican.
Cedar Falls, Dec 26-Hon. F. N.

Tuesday at the age of 81 years. He was
one of the oldest and best known resi-
dents in the county and well known
thruout the state because of his career
as public man.
Mr.. Chase was born on March 8. 1885.
at Royalston, Mass. He came to Cedar
Falls on his Goth birthday. He engaged
in the grocery business at different
times and also had the management of
the Carter House, now known as the
Burr Hotel.
The last eighteen years OF his life had
been devoted to exposition work. He
was appointed assistant commissioner
for Iowa at the Cotton Centennial at
New Orleans in 1884 and also to the
North and South American expositions
held at the same place later. He held
the same position in 1893 during the
worlds fair at Chicago and at the Om-

authorities and settled the Judge Hub
bard and Judge Trimble matter by pay
ing the fines and costs in full which were
assessed against these gentlemen last
summer. 1t will be remembered that
the two judges came to this county and
shot three prairie chickens on Aug. 81,
just one day too soon, according to the
Interpretation of the law by the authori-
ties here. They were hailed to Algona
and fined, whereupon Judge Hubbard
put up the most unique defense that has
ever been presented in a case of that
kind, arguing that yesterday is today
and today is tomorrow. He gave notice
of an appeal to the higher court, but
has evidently thought better of it since,
having had plenty of time to consider
the matter, and sent the money to Mr..
Lincoln to square it all up. The fines
and costs amounted to about $3.50, which
the two judges will no doubt consider
an extravagant prices. considering the
chicken supply last summer was not
particularly limited.
