st. Michaels, where the vessel could be
safely beached and repaired. After leav--
ing Nome, the rudder post gave out, but
temporary repairs were made. AS the
leak had not Increased and did not appear
to be dangerous, Captain Neeley decided
he could reach Seattle in safety and did
not stop at St. Michaels. With the
pumps going continually he found it i'm
possible to keep the water down, and as

compelled to put into Dutch Harbor and

Cost of the Boer War.

The staggering cost Of the war to Eng
land is indicated by these facts: The
cost in money to the English is nearly a
billion dollars. From beginning to end
the British had 100000 men in the field.
They lost 1856 men by death, including
1,Os6 officers; more than 9,uvv were cap-
tured or are missing; and nearly $1,000
we're sent home as irvalids Two thirds
of the dead succumbed to disease, which
shows that the worst enemy even In war
fare Is disease. Prevent disease by
