PILLAGED BY SOLDIERS.
Disturbance Attributed to Arrival of
 Cotton's Squadron.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5. - Minister bled that riot occurred at Beirut in which seven Christians were killed and several were wounded. Two houses oc- eupied by Christians were pillaged by the soldiery. The panic was general. 1t was due to a shot fired by Mussul- man upon a Christian employed at the American college. The Christian was wounded.
 The fight broke out while the vali was on board the United States cruis- er Brooklyn, returning Rear Admiral Cotton's visit.
 An official version of the Beirut af- mir says that Christians were the as- pailants, they having fired upon four Mussulmans. A fight ensued, during which MussuImans and Christians went to the assistance Of their respective rompatriots-
 This, says the report, compelled the troops to intervene, and they succeed ed in restoring order. Three soldiers were wounded and one was killed, while one Christian was killed and one wounded.
 The British consul at Beirut immedi- ately after the riot called upon the vali and threatened to ask Rear Admiral Cotton to land marines from the Amer lean squadron in the event of renew al of the disturbances.
 Tn official circles here the disturb Rnces are attributed to the arrival of the American squadron and the belief Is expressed that the Christians at Bei- rut are endeavoring to bring about the landing of marines from the war ships.
 A detailed report regarding the re- cent attack on United States Vice Con- sul Magelssen says Mr. Magelssen was tiding home in q hired carriage in the evening when on passing street near the Ras Beirut, a headland about three miles from Beirut, on which stand the buildings of the American mission, he heard sounds of pistol firing. He turn ed round to see from whence the shots came, and a bullet whizZed past his face. The vice consul at once had the carriage stopped and jumped out to dis rover his assailant, but could see no ona-

Brickmaking in Cathedral Town

Peterborough makes enough bricks in the course of a year to put girdle four times round the earth. It is estimated that the busy brickmaking yards, which have grown up in great number round the ancient city in the last 20 years. turn out 800, ,o0o,oo0 bricks annually. AS the length of brick Is about eight inches, then, if Peterborough's annual output were laid out in single line it would stretch over 100000 miles, The brick industry has revolutionized the trade of Peterborough. Such is the wealth of clay and the profit to be drawn from it that one part of the brickmaking g district has been fitly named ''Klon- dyke. Westminster Gazette.

WARREN DISTRICT MAP
ENGINEER GEORGE c. CLARK HAS
 JUST COMPLETED ONE.
He Covers the Entire District-AII Claims Are Shown and the Names Are Marked on Each.

It will not be long until Engineer George c. Clark will have completed a correct map of the Warren mining district on which he has been at work for six months. It will cover the en- tire district from Naco to the Modern and from one mile east of the Coper Glance to Packard station. The map will show each claim and give its name and each group will be outlined and bear the name of the owners.
 It will be complete and accurate in every respect and will be a great con venience to all who own property in this district MT. Clark has checked and connected many of the original surveys in order that his work should be complete.
 The new map is about ten foot square and the scale is 500 feet to one inch. MT. Clark will secure a copy right on the map before he offers it to the public. He has not yet fully de- cided but it is likely that he will re- duce the map to three-foot square and have Autograph plate made of it.
 Such map has long been needed and Mir Clark is to be congratulated on supplying it. He, no doubt. will be able to dispose of a sufficient number to pay him for his trouble.

 Billy Delaney, acting for Jeffries, and Jim Corbett. representing hls own interests, selected Eddie Graney as referee and stakeholder for the big contest which is to take place next month. The club and Corbett each deposited s2.50O forfeit money, and De- fancy has put up his deposit also. Delaney says that Jeffries weighs 225 pounds. and began his road work for the first time yesterday. Jeffries is determined not work so hard on the road as he has done in the past, as all he needs is quickness.
