HOUSE IN WHICH ADMIRAL
NELSON WAS BORN.

The humble residence at Burnham
Thorpe in which was born Horatio Nell
n, destined to live in history as the
hero of Trafalgar" is the pride of
Norfolk, England. 1t is a remarkable
fact that when a man prominent in
British politics was recently asked who
in his opinion was the greatest popular
idol Of his country, he replied, Lord
Nelson" When asked who came next
IN the popular fancy, he again replied,

GIRL STUDENTS AT ABERDEEN.
Life in the University Town Between
the Don and the Dee.

the Don and the Dee.
According to London Lady, the Alb
erdeen University Court, after a ten
years trial, has no reason to regret
the admission of girls to Aberdeen Uni
versity. There are two ancient col
leges-King's, founded in 1894, and
Marischars, founded about a century
later. Not only in arts, but in medi-
cine, do the girl students distinguish
themselves. In the former, for ex-
ample, the "Dr. Black Prize in Latin"
and the "Seafield Gold Medal in Lat
in" were won in the winter sessions of
1901 by the same young lady, while in
Greek many honors have fallen to the
lot of the girl students. The Fife
Jameson Gold Medal for Anatomy"
the "Lizars Gold Medal" for the same
study, have been carried off by girl
students, and it should be noted that
the first-named prize is considered the
blue ribbon" of that branch Of study.
Girl students have also won laurels
for practical work In the dissecting
room.

girl student life in Aberdeen is quite
different from life at Girton, Newn-
ham and other girls colleges which
are "among the universities, but not
of them" Aberdeen is university for
women students as well as for male
students, and the former are on exact
ly the same footing as the latter, and
share along with them every privilege
of their alma mater. Side by side they
sit in the classes, together they go up
to the exams, and the girl student

These girl students are interesting

city, attired as they usually are in the

copper property on the Summit be-
tween Idaho and Montana says the
company has had c. M. Allan Of Butte
examine the property to consider the
erection of a mill. Mr.. Allan spent
several days at the property and he
says that if the ore runs as high as ne
thinks it will there are sufficient values
there to warrant the construction.
The Jenkins bill relating to the tax
alton of mines, recently passed by
both the Idaho senate and house, is
now in Gov. Morrison's hands, with
every likelihood that he will soon at
tach his official signature to same. The
bill is virtually a duplicate of the law
now in force in the state of Montana,
and is conceded to be just and equit-
able to the entire state.
The Bon Homme Mining company of
New Orleans, of which G. M. Saria is
president, has filed suit in the United
States district court In Denver against
James F. Steinbeck to recover posses
sion of certain mining claims said to be
worth at least 100000. Steinbeck, the
complaint alleges, was the sole repre-
sentative of the company in Colorado.
He is charged with having allowed sew
eral of the companys most valuable
claims to be sold for taxes and fraud
ulently securing to himself title there
to by purchasing the tax sale certiti-
Gates.
Immediate development of the
Homestake group of mines on Beaver
creek, in the Big Greek district, is
promised by J. M. Hand, known as
Jim" Hand. The property is situated
about 35 miles north of Thunder noun
tain and about the same distance south
of Buffalo Hump. 81 have just given j
bond on my two-thirds interest in the
Homestake for $12O,OOO," he said. "A
party of New York men headed by
Lewis G. Van Ripper have secured the
other third interest and taken a bond
on my part. They plan to Immediately
push development work"
The big mining deal, or rather, deals
for there are two of them-continue
to attract attention at home as wei
as on the outside, says the Kendall
MONT, Chronicle. The report thai
Monday was the date fixed for making
the first payment, was not founded Oh
fact. The truth is there is no payment
due on the Barnes-King property til
about the middle of the present month
and the bond on the Kendall runs til
July. 1t is the popular belief that one
bond covers the whole transaction
Such is not the case, however. There
are two bonds, and one has no connec
ton with the other, beyond the fac
that the same people are interested il
them.
The Barnes-King and the Wrigh
property, as it is called, are grouped
together in one bond, and the Kendall
group of claims is another bond. TIL
sale of one property does not affect tn
other.

1T is NOT PROOF
FRAUDULENT PENSION MONEY
MUST BE RETURNED.
DEMANDS OF The GOVERNMENT
A Pension Case From Georgia Under
Consideration-Where Woman I'M
personated Diseased Brothers Wife,
Causes PRONUNCIATION of New Order
by Treasury.

WASHINGTON.--It is stated at the
sion certificate has been issued to a
woman who impersonated the widow
of a deceased pensioner, and pension
agents checks have been drawn pay
able to her and delivered to her upon
vouchers executed by her, and the
bank cashed such checks, which were
in due course paid at the sub-treas-
ury upon which drawn, the govern
ment will make reclamation of the
amount In other words, bankers
and other persons who cash pension
checks are charged with the respon-
sibility of establishing the identity of
the payees of such checks to the same
extent that they are charged with the
responsibility of establishing the iden-
tity of the payees and of the checks
issued in ordinary commercial trans
actions. The exhibition of q pension
certificate is not Identification of the
! person named therein. This ruling
was held in case arising in Georgia,
wherein one Clarissa Owens, whose
real name was Molly Melton, obtained
pension, it is said, by impersonat-
ing the deceased wife of soldier,
and received payment at the rate of
So per month from April 8, 1901, to
May 4, 1908.
1t developed in the examination Of
this claim that the soldier left
widow, who is supposed to have died
in Florida. Molly Melton, a sister
of the soldier, impersonated her de-
ceased sister-in-law, obtained the pen
sion, forged endorsements of her de-
ceased sister-in-law to the checks and
| obtained the money. For this Of
tense she was tried in the United
States district court at Savannah, Ca,
and was sentenced to one year and
one days confinement in the peniten-
tiary.
The officials of the Northern Pacific
railroad deny the statement attribut-
ed to Frank Waterhouse, manager Of
the Boston Steamship company of
Seattle, in mis- recent testimony before
the interstate commission, that his
company had q contract with the
Northern Pacific which prohibited
that railway company from accept
ing freight brought in by tramp
steamships. They assert that while
the company has no exclusive con-
tract and no agreement beyond
division of rates on business from the
Orient, it is the general practice Of
railroad companies in the transaction
of their business to make conces-
sion to establish and maintain perma-
nent lines with a fixed and regular
schedule of sailings and arrivals, and
with advertised routes, with dockage
facilities, etc, over transient steam
ships, mostly foreign, which have hap
pened to pick up cargo and have nc
regular business.

a period of four years, unless sooner
relieved: Brigader General Aaron

jor Robert w. Dowdy, Arkansas.
While serving on these details the of

wHlTELAW REID ON EXPANSION
Seems to Fear Result of Extending
American Possessions.

NEW Notwithstanding to the
toast "Forefathers' Day" at the an
nual dinner of the New England soci-
ETY., Whitelaw Reid said in part:
Shall we find a safe course by
roaming the oceans to drag in semi
tropical and revolutionary communi-
ties to be made states in the Ameri-
can union equal from the start to
ourselves, with sometimes, perhaps,
balance of power that may enable
thSSi to govern us and the land Of
our fathers? Such questions have
burst upon us too suddenly out of our
expansion to justify at the outset
harsh criticism of any rash or ill-con-
sidered proposals that may rise to
the surface in the first froth of public
discussion. But | venture to predict
that the time will come when the man
who shall propose the incorporation
into a state of this government of the
United States of America, of any is
land of the sea, the Philippines, the
Sandwich islands, or Porto Rico, will
be hunted from public life as a ma.
tional enemy, whether he be animat-
ed merely by lingering "reminiscences
of the filibusters and slavery propa-
ganda, or whether he represent SUI
gar trust in Wall street or a sage
brush trust in the United States sen!
ate"

A SECRET TREATY
RUSSIA SAID TO HAVE SECURED
A VANTAGE POSITION.
ARMY AT CALL OF THE BEAR
This is Secured by Having it Drilled
and Commanded by Russians
Greatly Increases Tension In East
Japan Also Gains FoothoId.

NEW YORK.-A dispatch from Lon
don says the Tien Tsin correspondent
of the Standard revives the report
which was started a few days ago, to
| the effect that a secret treaty has been
signed between Russia and Corea,
whereby Russia obtains the control OF
| the Corean army through Russian In.
structors. The correspondent declares
this will greatly increase the tension
in the far east.
TOKIO.-At an extraordinary meet
inG of the cabinet it is learned that
IT was decided to issue an emergency
ordinance authorizing the guarantee
of the principal and interest of an
issue of 100000 yen debentures on
the Seoul.Fusan railway which is OK
pected to be finished before the end
of next year.
At dinner given by the Oriental
association, former Minister Kato,
who presided, said he deeply regretted
that the people had not been taken
into the confidence of the government
regarding the position of affairs be-
tween Japan and Russia Neverthe-
less, he said, should the emperor de-
clare war, the nation would be found
ready to give him unanimous support.
Count Okuma. the former premier,
said he agreed with the view express
| ed by Mr., Kato and he thought it was
now high time to let the people know
| the actual position occupied by the
government He also declared that
not only a feeling of chivalry, but a
| desire for self-preservation required
that Japan should buttress the integ'
rity OF China. Both speakers thought
that the situation had reached an ex-
tremely critical stage.
| ST. PETERSBURG. - The Russian
government is still considering the re
| ply of the Japanese government to its
note, which was sent in answer &c
Japan's demands relating to the stu
alton in the far east. A reconsidera
| ton of the proposals made in the Rus
sian note is considered as a matter
of course here Russia has never
been disposed to take any step which
would lead to an abrupt termination
of the negotiations with Japan. In
answer to many inquiries made by the
Associated Press the Russian foreign
Office has always insisted that the
Russian proposals were so liberia
that it would be scarcely probable
to conceive any further concessions
While the foreign office Is unwilling
to admit that Russia is preparing tt
offer more than the concessions out
lined in the last note, it is considered
possible that the government ma!
suggest changes by which the Russian
requirements may be met and salts
faction given to Japan.

READY FOR ANY EMERGENCY
Gets Transports in Shape to Take
Troops to Panama.

Troops to Panama.
WASHINGTON-War department
officials admit that the transports
Sherman, Buford and Crook, now al
San Francisco, are being made ready
for sea. Primarily these vessels are
intended for the Manila service, but
officials make no concealment OF the
fact that they want to be ready for
any emergency which may arise, and
should the government desire to use
any of them for the transportation of
troops to Panama, the ships will be
ready for that purpose. Still the pos
tive assertion is made that no orders
have been received at the quartermas-
ter's office with this end in view. 1t
is simply, they say, a question of be-
ing prepared.
The Sherman recently has returned
from Mania. She is in need of some
repairs, aud the present intention oi
the quartermaster's Office is to send
her back 20 the Philippines on Feb
ruary /. The Buford has been Land
up at San Francisco for two years
and just now she is being overhauled
and some coal-saving appliances in
stalled. The Crook Is in need of q
thorough overhauling and renovating
which is being given her
