Scott to Chippewa county for prelimi-

Judge Bowers and County Attorney
Smith that a we'll organized mob was de-
termined to lynch the criminal as soon

the edge of Chippewa county, and drive
two miles In a northerly direction to
farm house, where court was held, JUS
tice Jacobson Of Montevideo presiding, as
sisted by County Attorney Smith.
The mob learned that the prisoner and
sheriffs were in the locality, but by per-
sistent effort and the cooperation Of
Sheriff Headline Of Renville county, the
plans OF the mob were futile and the pris-
oner was conveyed by teams to this point,
arriving at a. m.
The mob followed the sheriff's and pris-

Situation la serloua.

London. July 23.-The delicate, not to
ray critical, situa ton In the far east aris-
ing from the rivalry between Russia and
Japan, Is causing no little anxiety to the
British government.
Japan Is firmly determined to oppose to
the utmost Of her ability Russias aggrss-
sion in Korea, for it is there rather than

touched. Russia's operations in the for

In Toxic, where they are regarded as a
definite military occupation. Rather than
submit, Japan Is prepared to go to war.
She Is not disposed to carry on diplomatic
correspondence for an unlimited time, and,
feeling herself ready to put the matter
to the final test Of arms, she does not
shirk the ordeal.
The contempt Of General Kouropa tkin,
Russian minister Of war; and other high
Russian officials for Japan's military or
ganization endangers the situation, espe-
, cially as each country considers that fur
Their delay in settling the question tends
to benefit its rival. --.
Coal Supply Augmented.
The British government realizes that
the situation holds serious possibilities.
The admiralty recently has been unusual
ly silent regarding the movements Of the
British squadron on the China station,
while it is known that enormous stocks Of
coal have been going to the far east depots
for weeks past conourrentlly with the
issuing Of orders to keep the stocks re-
newsd to tie fullest capacity.
In view OF these developments, 1t may
be relevant to remark that the reasons al
legged for the abandonment Of Earl Rob-
erts' visit to the United States appear to
be ouriously insufficient. A section of
the British press lately called attention
to the fact that Sir Ernest satow, the
British minister to China, who was re-
turning to Pekin from his absence.

PrOsp cts Favorable for Big
 Travel to Tananl.

Those arriving from the South say that there will, in an probability, be a big rush Co the Panama early in the summer. There are many miners and others in Seattle and other lower coun- try cities, who are waiting for the opening Of navigation, when they will start North for the new diggings. Most of these are old time Alaskans, but many are men who were never in Alaska before.
 While there are enough of these Co make the increase in the summer travel more than offset the loss on the early spring travel Co the North, no matter what the first reports may be from that country, should the news come out that the Panama is holding up to eNpccta- tions the rush win be so great that the carrying capacity of the steamers ar- irving at Skagway about the time for the first fleet of river steamers Co start out from Whbohorse, win be taxed Co the uttcrmo,t of their capacity.
 The fact that the reports from those comprising the first bunch of stamped CTS Co new camp i, almost always dis couragiug. will have the effect of caus- ing many Co refuse to give mp planned trips to the new diggingS, no matter what the nature of the early spring news from there may be.

Tonnage For 1908 Will Greatly Exceed That For 1902. Increase Will Be At All

Seattle office at a corresponding date last year.
 It is believed that the regular Daw- son freight offering will exceed that of last year. while the Atlin business will show remarkable gains. It is also the belief that there will be a tremendous gain in. the quantity of the shipments to the American side Of tra line on the Yukon.
 One of The principal causes that Is expected to contribute to the increased tonnage for the year 1905, i, the con- stantly growing popularity of the Skag- way route, as compared with that via St. Michael, and the large increase here will be partly the result Of de- crease in the tonnage by the ocean and the lower river route.
 The increased demand for merchan- disc on the American side of the line will be in part caused by the growth of the Panama as a mining camp.

A Puzzled Monkey.

Yesterday was a good day for the
monkeys at the Fair grounds, and
they liked it. They frisked about in
the sunshine, and cut their antics
with an abandon that showed them
to be bubbling over with fun and
mischief. There is one that by some
amusing p liarities becomes an
Immediate favorite with every spec
tator. A gentleman in the crowd
yesterday happened to have small
pocket-mirror, and just for sport
passed it, the favorite. The mon
keys behavior, on seeing his face
reflected in the glass, kept the crowd
in roar of laughter for nearly an
hour. The monkey of course failed
to recognize the reflection of himself,
and took it for another monkey, and
his anxiety to get hold of that mon
key was what made the fun. He
would look behind the glass, and feel
for it in such comical way while he
was looking in the glass that one
could not help laughing. While the
glass was close to his eye he gradu-
ally bent over, casually, and noticing
that the evanescent monkey was on
his back, apparently, he dropped the
glass and made sudden grab for
him. When he didn't get him he
looked surprised, and commenced
looking under the straw to see what
had become of him. He was then
seized with a luminous idea. He
picked up the glass and ran to the
topmost branch of the dead tree that
is erected in the cage, and climbing
to the extreme end again looked in
the glass. 1t seemed he reasoned
that in such position the monkey
could not get away. He felt for it,
grabbed at it, and tried all sorts OF
strategy to capture it, notwithstand-
ing repeated failures.-St. Louis
Republican.
That monkey made more fun than
all the rest of the show. A Gagged
or confined bird or animal can often
be made very happy by little mir
ror so placed as not to dazzle. Edi-
