TO BUILD OVER AGAIN.
His Majesty's Royal Yacht Rolls Too
Mnch

New York. Sept. 23.-His majesty's
beautiful $4,000, 600 yacht. the Victoria
and Albert, which tried to turn bottom
upward when she was launched, which
had to be almost wholly rebuilt and on
which an army of workmen who were
needed sore1y for the construction of
new British war vessels, has been kept
busy for two years, officially was de-
c1ared 10 be seaworthy when she re-
turned from her trial trip to Gibraltar,
a few days ago, says the London COR
respondent of the Press.
Unoff1cially, however, it was under
stood generally that this remarka bic
vessel had rolled to such an extent that
no monarch would consent to go to sea
in her. Even the crew had been sea-
sick
This report was denied at first, but it
now is stated that the admiralty, whose
officials are responsible, have had sew
eraI experts make an examination OF
the yacht and of her performance on
the trip to Gibraltar, and that these ex-
perts have reported that in order to
make the boat sufficiently steady she
will have to be rebuilt partly, once again
at heavy expense, and allowed four feet
additional draught, although the lowest
port holes are already only a few inches
above the water line. 1t originally was
intended that the vessel should cost ST.

FROZEN IN ICE
Herds of Montana Sheep En-
tombed in an Icy Glacier.

Vancouver, 3. c., Sept 23.-The Daw-
son News prints a remarkable story
about the prospecting tour just com
pleted of H. W. Bracken, who has re-
turned to Dawson after six months in
northern Alaska. According to Braclz-
ems narrative. while in the Romanzon
mountains, about one thousand miles
from Dawson, he and his servants as
cended a mountain glacier At a
mountain sheep frozen in the ice. The
theory is that some extreme mid-Winter
blizzard had caught them while STAN
peding over the dome. Then the sheep
huddled together and persisted, the snow
gradually forming an icy coating.
Whatever portion of the bodies of the
sheep were above the ice were de-
voured by Arctic bears and wolves
Bracken is said to be scientific
miner of rs years experience, having
resided three years in the Yukon.

TO INVADE LONDON.
An American Chamber of Com
merce to Be Established.

New York. Sept. pa dispatch to the
Press from London says:
1t seems possible now that an Amer
lean chamber of commerce will be es-
tablished before long in London. The
rapidly growing colony of American
business men here has been wanting
something of the sort for a long while.
ard at last definite steps are being
taken to that end. Perhaps the move
nent for the establishment here Of
Canadian chamber of commerce, and
OF another for Australasia, may nase
something to do with fastening the or
sanization of the American institution.
According to 5. G. HObSon the Lon
don representative of the Iron Age
there is no branch of American trade
in England to which the advantages OF
a commercial association of the kind
proposed appeal more strongly than TO
the iron and steel manufacturers.
There is no doubt about the benefits
that would accrue from an organization
of the kind we hope to establish said
Mr.. HObson in an interview.
In the beginning, in order to pop
ularize American trade over here, it is
essential that our traders should know
each other. If American trade is to be
a real factor here, American traders
must help each other. Every American
representative in London constantly is
in receipt of inquiries as to who are
eialties. If he knew he could refer the
inuuirers to the manufacturer imme-
diately and put the latter men in the
way of business.
Such a chamber would facilitate
trade relations between American
houses and British companies who want
to trade their goods. Dealers over here
are wideaWake to the possibilities Of
American products and are anxious to
obtain the English agencies, but the re-
plies they receive to their proposals
often are surcharged with suspicion,
and more often than not the negOtia-
tons end in nothing
An American trade association
could accomplish a great deal in the di-
rection of getting lower freight rates;
in other words, toward solving the
American traders greatest problem. If
the members of various trades knew
each other better different ones who
had comparatively small shipments of
freight coming over could combine
them and save a substantial sum every
time this was done. An increase in
volume of trade always tends to de-
crease rates, and lower rates of course
would mean the possibility of lower
prices. Then there exists at present in
England a lot of annoying little dock
charges which, if American dealers
We're organized, could be got rid of

TALKS ABOUT EsQUIMAUx.
DR.. Lerrigo Says They Are Better
Than Some Whites

DR.. P H aLerrigo. who has spent the
past two years on st. Lawrence island,
In Behring sea, doing missionary work
among the Esquimaux, but now on his
way east to take postgraduate lectures in
medicine, spoke at the Sunday afternoon
meeting of the city Z. M. G. A. His talk
was an interesting description of the
characteristics. habits Of living and le-
gends of that people.
''lrhey are better" said he than the
majority of the whites who come there.
They love their families as much as an
ordinary white man does. They never
allow their children to suffer in any re-
spect, and to their wives they. are very
good But there is a. seany side to their
Character, and that is that you can't trust
them farther than you can see them, ex-
cept those who have come in touch with
the missionary work The worst thing I
had to contend with was the superstitions
regarding the spirits of the air, the lake
and the like of that
Dr. Lerrigo's address was heard by a
large number of men He viii remain in
Topeka for q week or more.

No he replied. but I was hoping
there was q limit or some restriction
that would make it necessary to use it

Miss Aldrich wore a handsome fawn
driving coat with a pretty black hat
and when she drew off her gloves as she
entered the town hall her diamond en-
Eagement ring told Miss Williams. as
sisrant clerk. that it was time to get
