convict's Discovery.

Several months ago man named
Kurzpeski, having committed a seri-
GUS offense, was sentenced to a long
term of imprisonment in Germany, and
since then the public heard nothing
about him until the other day, when the
news spread that he had discovered q
cure for consumption which he claimed
was infallible. In letter to the min
lister Of the interior, Kurzpesli gave a
glowing account of the new remedy, stat
ing that 1t had worked wonders on HIM
self and others who are imprisoned with
him at Luneburg, and requested to be
set. at liberty for time in order that he
might continue his investigations in a
properly equipped laboratory. With this
request the minister has not yet seen fit
10 comply, but he has thought the matter
Of such importance that he has instructed
committee of scientists to go to Lune-
burg and make a thorough test of the
alleged remedy.

SEVEN THOUSAND MONKS.
British Apply TO Largest Monastery
In the World For Food


LASSA, Tibet, Aug 15,-The British
mission is experiencing difficulty in oh
tanning supplies, and no attempt has
yet been made to start negotiations.
Tibetan officials having been warned
that if supplies were not forthcoming
the British would be obliged to seize
them, replied that they were unable to
compel the peasants to sell their grain
One Thousand troops, with four guns
marched TO the Dalpung monastery, IA
mile distant, containing 1000 monks
and probably the largest monastery in
the world. a sEiall party was sent
ahead with letter asking the abbot
for supplies and Offering to pay liber
ally for them, but notifying the abbot
that If the supplies were refused they
would be taken by force.
Crowds of monks collected at the en-
trance to the monastery They declined
to take the letter and threw stones at
the party, which then left the letter in
a prominent place and returned to the
main body.
The monks then took the letter and
sent a deputation with a white flag.
This deputation, seeing the troops de
ployed and the guns ready. promised
to bring all supplies possible, After
some hours delay the monks produced
a hundred maunds Of barley and flour
"a maund is a weight of about eighty
pounds. With these the British had to

troubles on the trip.
Seeing the Sun Rise From Grtyiock
With loads of grub we started out

The day was fine without doubt
On rain we were not counting
There were Geo Hudson and his wife

And Johnny Harder full OF life

The Akrisegs and Kneollers too
With Mrs Harder leading
To most Of us the scenes we're new
To an they were most pleasing.
And even when the rain me down
with lighting and with thunder,
Our spirits they did not go down
Although we'd made blnnder.
A short cut road was pointed out
To us AS we departed,
We took this way, drove round about
Aud landed where we started
when half was up the mountain side
In the drizzng rain at night
We built Our camp ne u the wood side
BY the aid OF lantern light
And is where tie fun began
For the uncles aunts and cousins
Then we devoured beans by the pan
And boiled eggs by the dozen.
When horses, dogs and man we're fed
And every body happy,
Some yelled some. sang some went to bed
For they fell rather nappy.
AHA NJ we broke up camp
And started Up the mountain,
We followed Geo K0ut and h,s lamp
And rea ned The top a shouting.
with battle sx we cut the fog
Johu Harder look the pieces.
Down the hill he rolled them like log.
And thenhe took recess.
Our tent we pitched again right here
To wait for the sun TO rise,
But alas the sun did not appear
Damp fog only flied the skies
And now we had some fun once more
Filled ourselves with beans and eggs,
On bread and bake and other stores
Drank hot coffee to the drsggs.
At Ia. the dismal fog broke way
Awe and wonder filled us now,
For by the glorious light OF day
We behsld brindle COW

no harm.
Baseball, where the yelling disturbs
residents, is nuisance, though | should
not care if the boys went way out INTO

of golf. don't approve of the Sunday
band in town, as at Emma Square or
Thomas Square or the Capitol Grounds,
but can see no reason why it shouldn't
have chance to play in the Park as IN
San Francisco. People who don't like
to- hear the music are not obliged to

Pratt is city sanitary officer under the

capacities Mr. Wood, On leaving the
Territory, wished to have his resigna-

early return. The lack of a member is
embarrassing when a quorum is want

Governor Carter said yesterday that
Superintendent Atkinson ~had been in
consultation with him for some time
about filling the vacancy on the Board
of Educa ton. They had concluded to
appoint Dr.. Pratt and the Governor
gave these reasons for the selection:
