ception.

Some hundreds of townspeople gather
ed on the piers and slopes of the mar
row bay and gave detached, irregular
cheers as the squadron advanced.
Prince Henry sent his navigating Of
ficer and the captain Of the port down
the bay early in the morning to meet
the Americans. They met the latter at
Orlateau, as the squadron was firing
it's salute off the fort of Friedrichsort.
The flagship Kearsarge swung into
her mooring next to the Hohenzollern,
followed by the San Francisco, Chi
cago and Machias, all of the German
ships being dressed in the visitors

ships then called on Prince Henry, who

WONDERFUL GOLD FIND.
Quartz Found In British Columbia Goes
Over 100000 a Ton.

Quartz Found In British Columbia Goes
Over 100000 a Ton.
Kaslo, B. c., June 25.-Frank Mar
quis and George Gilbert came in from
the Lardo-Duncan country with reports
of gold find that casts everything be
fore heard of in that belt completely
in the shade. They have pieces Of
quartz that are more than one hall
gold. These specimens will run in
values to the ton up to figures almost
incredible. Intense excitement was
aroused and the room where the find
was on exhibition has been thronged
all day. In the fruit can brought down
there is about 500 worth of gold
Parties are being rapidly formed to
giving every assistance to others who
may wish to make additional loca.
tons. Mr.. Marquis, who is a reliable
and experienced mining man, states
that he has at very lowest estimate
over ton of ore ready to be sacked
that will give at least 100000.
The property, which is called the
Gold Park group, of two claims, is on
Poplar creek, tributary of the Lardo
river, about one mile from the Koote-
nay & Arrowhead railway and about
20 miles from Lardo. The find was
made while doing assessment work.
Some 20 open Cuts have been made,
in all of which good ore has been I'M
covered giving fair values, but moth
ing like this find was met with. The
ore is white quartz and carbonates,
carrying big quantities Of free gold and
chloride of gold.
The vein from which this ore was
taken is about seven inches wide, wild
ening in places to 10 inches, the whole
gangue being impregnated with filigree
gold. The vein has been uncovered
in places for several hundred feet.
The owners came to town to procure
supplies, more tools and sacks to sack
the ore. and will return at once. A
large party is preparing to accompany
them. Several parties have already
left for the ground.
The country is very heavily timbered
and the immediate vicinity is rough
and precipitous. Numerous finds have
been made on the Lardo and its tribu-
taries of gold quartz carrying gold
but nothing approaching this
has ever been met with.
The strike is about 40 miles from
Kaslo and is not far from Tenderfoot
ind Meadow creeks, where good prop
critics are being now worked. Marquis
md Gilbert say that they are in the
same mineral belt with the Silver Cup,
he Triune and the Ophir Lode groups,
I'll of which carry the same character

ment of naval militia will also be added to the
naval forces. Eight army and twenty-five navy
umpires and twenty-five army and ten navy
observers will keep the record of every incident
in the struggle. The technical programme so
far as outlined. states the problem as follows:
Two blue squadrons Of battleships being To-
Gated at Guantanamo and CuIebra are covered
by superior allied fleet of red and black When
the political situation in the United States is
suddenly strained to rupture a strong red
fleet, including torpedo boats, sails at o. m.
on August % from the port of y. heading
south, with the following sealed orders:
The red fleet at y viii proceed at once to
Portland, Me, seize and hold same as the base
of operations"

parture The time required for the red fleet To

embrace reconnaissance in force. an attempt
to destroy mined fields. day attack, night at

Preparations Will be made TO resist attacks on
forts by the landing parties. All forts in the
artillery districts of Portland. including Forts
Williams, Prebe. Mckinley. Scanned, Levett
and the fortifcations Cow Island. will be
modified a basis. allowing two reliefs
of the artillerymen. During the period of hos
tilities the conditions are to approach those of
actual warfare as closely as possible In under
taking these operations the controlling idea will
be to test the training Of the personnel and the
efficiency of the material The army observers
and navy umpires are to assemble at Rockland
Me-. on August "a. for preliminary consuIta-
ton. and the navy observers and army umpires
are to assemble at Portland on that day for the
same purpose.

coast in midsummer, but is rarely observed in
Gravesend Bay off Southampton before Oc-

short time in June. Then it goes off and
comes back in September. 1t is less abundant at
Y OOds Hole than formerly The angel fish is
nat and thin. Though sometimes attaining a
length of four feet it rarely weighs over thirty

shape 1t is sometimes called the shark ray and
little bullhead shark. Other names given to it
are monk, monkey fish, Kingston and fiddle fish.

HIS SOLE CONSOLATION.

Miss Cynthia Roche. one of the most popular
young girls at Newport, took, the other day, a
bong ride through the country on a motor car.
Its occupants becoming thirsty, the car
stopped at little farmhouse, and there the old
farmer was gallant. He gave the party de-
Hcious water from deep WELL and he led Miss
Roche little tour of his estate.
Among other interesting things that he
showed to the young girl was a tremendous
potato patch. Over this patch he shook his
mead gravely. He said that all the vines in it
had been ruined by a parasite.
Miss Roche sympathized with the old man
She murmured:
Il am sorry to see this fine field of potatoes
seriously diseased"
Yes said the farmer its a great pity I
have only one comfort
What is that?" Miss Roche asked.
Why. ThomsOn's field. to the east there. and
shannons, on the south. are as bad as if not
worse. than mine"
