brief statement in the house of lords,
Tuesday, the premier continued: "The
blockade will be carried out by Great
Britain and Germany along different
portions of the coast, and though the
two fleets will have the same OBJ
jects, they will not act ms one force.
We never had any intention OF land
ing troops in Venezuela or of occupy
ing territory even temporarily We
do not think IL desirable on either
military or other grounds, All the
conditions governing such n blockade
have been carefully considered, and
will be published In due time for the
information of neutrals, The gov
ernmcnt is most anxious that these
operations, the necessity for which
we deeply regret, should be MS little

possibly be made. No difference will

side a moment. Mr.. White told me that
unless there was a shut down he could
neither take his family abroad next

"Do you consider that a hardship?''
exclaimed the young man, stopping and
turning toward his father.
"Why shouldn't it be? The poignancy
of ones disappointment depends upon
how one has been reared. May not this
be felt quite as keenly by his wife and
daughters as the wives and daughters
of our men will feel the loss of their

meet with disappointment and depri-

The strike had been on for month.
Mr.. Gray had disposed of his stock
in the works and was no longer treas
urer. One evening number of the
idle men had gathered in his store,
where he also kept the post office. The
river was rising rapidly and the men
were discussing the probability OF
cheap fuel in the near future and the
consequent reopening of the works.
Harry Brown was there, too. He had
had a good deal of business to trans

the works were in operation and the
business hadn't seemed to lessen any

While Harry was talking to Miss
Gray through the opening in the glass

domain there was commotion among
the men at the other end of the room.
Superintendent Brown had come in
with others and appeared to have
some interesting information. Harry
was called, much TO his disgust, and
joined the group.
Mr.. Gray had received letter from
the president of the Broadway Bridge

written:

Death in Alpine Climbing
OfAu Exercises Pursued In the Name Of
Pleasure, This Is the Most Perlous-
Appalling Record of Lives Lost

the same peaks and facing the same
dangers.
The greatest number Of fatalities
are reported from Chamouni and the
general region thereabout. The Mat
terhorn claimed several, but its dan.
gers appear to be decreasing. Since
it was first conquered and its summit
was reached some siXty-five years
ago, the famous mountain has lCred
several hundreds to their death.
The most appalling record for any
single section was that of the Swiss
Alps during the season of 1886. Ac-
cording to the statistics of the Alpine
club eight peaks were assembled dur.
ing the year, and in these expeditions
a total of eleven lives were lost. This
refers, of course, only to the highest
and least accessible mountain tops.
The record was therefore about three
deaths for every two peaks assembled.
The dangers of north pole exploration
seem trifling by comparison.
The greatest number Of deaths
among climbers has been caused each
year by slipping. The bulletins issued
by the Alpine club would indicate that
fully three.fourths of all the fatalities
are due to this. The climbers are
constantly being reminded OF the nee
essity of wearing proper shoes. In
many cases, of course, this is the re-
suit of carelessness. The men wear
shoes improperly supplied with cleats
or they wander outside of the path.
The next greatest danger, according
to the records, is of death from ava
lanches. All the experience and skill
of the oldest mountain guides is moi
sufficient to avoid this danger. The

The Economical Widow.

Once upon time man who had
become quite wealthy through the
careful management of clever wife
died. His wife's passion for saving
was strong, even in his death, and
though the demands of fashion re-
quired that she should show her grief
by wearing mourning, they did not de-
mand that she should be extravagant.
She was well equipped with clothing,
ana instead of putting 1t to one side,
to go out of style through lapse of
time, she took her outer garments to
a dyer and had them changed to the
mourning color.
Moral-Widows sometimes dye on
account of grief.
