GERMAN REICRSTAG WARNED
EntAusiasm of Germans for Japan Deprecated as Fostering of
 the ..Nellow PeriI.''

Berlin, Dec. S-In the reiChstag Herr Lieberman von Sonnenberg (eonsery- ative) expressed regret at the enthusi- asm of the Germans for Japan. He said race consciousness should be awakened
 We are white. They are yellow" the speaker added.
 All the European peoples must stand together against the yellow peril. /"
 The socialists and radicals laughed at this remark
 The Russians. continued Von Sos- nenberg, are defending against Japan the most sacred possessions of Europe They are fighting common yellow en- emy."
 This statement caused renewed laughter. and some socialist shouted: They don't fire on defenseless fish ermen"
 Herr von Sonnenberg added: If the Japanese conquer, their next object will be Kiao-Chou (the German port in China), as drunken Japanese off cers have already admitted" "

 nn eter hill.

Tollio, Dec. S.-Completely riddled by the Japanese shells fairly rained upon Port Arthur harbor from 2o3meter hill, the Russian battleship Poltava has sunk at it's anchorage. The battleship Retyizan is also so seriously damaged as to be practically out of commission.
 The Poltava, one of the finest yes sels in the czar's navy, was an armored turret ship of l09G0 tons, carrying four 12-inch, twelve 5.9-inch and thirty-four small caliber guns and complement of TOO men. IL went into commission in 1898. costing nearly s6,000000.
 The Retyizan, which has figured prominently in the naval engagements of the present war. is 12.709ton bat tleship, armed with four Pinch, twelve 6-inch. twenty 3-inch and twen- ty-three smaller ealiber guns.
 Another battleship in the harbor has so heavy a list as to indicate that it will be of no value in fight. The Japanese observers on 203-meter hill have not yet been able to determine the ships identity.
 There are reports that the cruiser Bayan is aground.

THE FORESTRY CONGRESS-
It Has Been Called to Meet in Wash

tions of Great Economic Import ance to the Country.

Washington. Dec. s.-Extensive ar engagements are being made for an American Forest congress to be held at Washington. D. C.. January 2-6. 1905. The congress will be under the auspices of the American Forestry as- sOciaGon, of which Hon James Will son, secretary of agriculture, is the president. The purpose of the con- gress, as announced in the official call. is to establish broader understand ing Of the forest in it's relation to the great industries depending upon it; to advance the conservative use of the forest resources for both the present and the future need of these indus tries to stimulate and unite all ef- forts to perpetuate the forest as a per manent resource of the nation" Fol lowing the announcement, an exhaus- tive programme is being arranged. which will make the congress by far the most notable event in the history Of American forestry.
 The congress will be thoroughly rep resentative of the great industrial in- terests which are directly and inti- mately dependent for their well-being upon the forests, as is shown by the prominence of those who have already notified Secretary Wilson of their in- teEGon to attend.
 The interest of the federal govern ment in the congress is evidenced by the facts that the president of the United States will deliver an address and receive the delegates, that the sec retary of agriculture will preside, and that the different government bureaus especially concerned with the forests. irrigation, and the public lands, will be fully represented.

London. Dec. S.-The Daily Tele- graph pays a tribute to President RooseveIts courageous recognition of thoSny problems, and says:
 1t is positive relief to contrast his virile language on the subject of fore,gn policy with the anaemic femi- ninities which find shrill utterance in England.
 The Standard says that on the ques- tion of a strong navy President Roose- welt will carry with him the sympa- thetic concurrence of most English men.
 We see in this message the words of Police Constable Roosevelt of the international police" says the Daily Chronicle in an editorial, the sentence concentrating the aspect of the mes- sage of the president of the United States which most fereibly presents itself in that journal.
 On the whole, the press of London regards the message as statesman
 
 document. which the Morning Post ventures to think will do more than any public utterance of recent years to increase sympathy between Britons and Americans" following this ex- pression with the passage from the message where President Roosevelt speaks of his foreign policy as one for which the English-speaking world will HOW and hereafter be thankful.
 A majority of the newspapers edi- torially approve of President Roose- velts advocacy of a strong army and navy in order to preserve the peace of justice, and acquit Mir. Roosevelt of any jingoisms.
 Some. on the other hand. consider the message injurious 10 the ideals of disarmament and arbitration The Daily Graphic, for example. thinks the message will strengthen the advo- cates of bloated armaments in every country.

HESTER HAD HER REVENGE
Boys Made Fun of Her and She Vented i, Her Indignation in Queer Way.

It would be hard to improve upon Hester's coffee. and the rest of her cooking was in keeping; but 1t was quite within the limits of possibility, at least. to imagine improvement in her temper, relates Youths Compan- ion. When angered. her old black face would work frightfully, she slammed the cooking utensils down with shock ing emphasis, and went about meditat- ing revenge upon the exciting cause of her wrath. But she always did medi- tate. and the delay thus involved. cou- pied with her sincere religious con- yictions that forbade her 10 injure others. was often the salvation Of those who annoyed her.
 Two small and very troublesome boys who lived across the street were ire quently the cause of Hester's indigna- tion.

- SOME RICH GOLD MINES!
...+s...*
Report Of the Operators Of a Moore
County Company.
OLLIE, Moore County Nc,
April IS, 1903.
Mr.. P. H. LAUFMAN,
President Laufman Gold mining
Company,
Southern Tines, O. G.
Dear Sir We, the undersign-
ed, would respectfully submit to
You and the directors of tile Lauf-
man Gold Mining Co., the follow.
ing report in regard to the mine,
its extent, distances, measurements
with also rough outline map Of
It's boundaries, etc.
We lind by actual measure
ment the distance along the line
of the vein on the Jackson prop
erty is 1913 feet, across the
Shields property 1925 feet, total
length Of vein 273S feet.
The highest point of ground is
on the jackson property in The
line between that and the Shields
property, and is 1875 feet above
the level of the creek and 1875
feet from the creek.
This hill is composed of decom-
posed slate or rock. and for a depth
Of forty feet it carried gold at an
average valuation of $500 per
ton, based on 20 cubic feet to the
ton. At that depth the solid vein
has been cut and followed down
as feet on an incline, shaft Sx9
feet timbered all the way. The
shaft is in solid ore body, ore on
the sidss, overhead and bottom. II
is not known how wide the owe
body is as neither hanging wall
or foot wall has been discovered,
buta 6 foot drill has been drove
the whole length both ways to-
ward both walls without reaching
either, and the drillings carefully
PINNED and found to carry gold
both ways. So it is positively
known that the vein is at least
90 feet thick at this point.
As to the richness, several as
says made from different places in
the shaft run from $4,000 to $54.-
90 per ton. The ore from this
shaft was milled in what is known
as a CHILEAN Mill. ~
The last ore taken, out in the
bottom ofthis shaft t8x9 feet was
worked il the above CHILEAN
Mill. The. mill was run three days,
70 hours per day, about one ton
IF ore per day, and cleaned up
$4,000 or bout $40 90 per ton.

the side hill about so feet long and
25 feet deep in its deepest place,
Il en- shaft sunk IS feet to the
level of the creek. A part of the
dirt and rock from the open cut
was milled and produced from
$500 to $40 90 per ton.
In the shaft several assays have
been running from $1,000, the
lowest, to $334.OO per ton, the
highest, with several assays inter
mediate.
10 sum up, we find the vain to
be at least 10 feet wide in the
new workings and 20 feet or more
in the old workings, which will
give an aveIage width OILS feet
for 1900 feet in length and an
average depth of 80 feet. or II

| : 100000 cubic feet, divided by
10, number Of cubic feet per ton in
a vein, we have S3,075 tons at $40
per ton would give 1861, 10000
on the jackson property alone,
and this is what is termed Gas in
sight" according to miners mea-
surements.
Now ten stamp mill working
90 tons per day for 800 days per
year would give 5000 tons per year.
and would take nearly II years to
work out the above amount or
number of tons of ore, that is on
the jackson property between the
two points mentioned, via. the new
and the old workings, and to a
depth of only 60 feet which seems
rather insignificant compared
with workings that range from |, 0
to loco feet in depth.
If richness increases in depth.
as miners say, what would would
there be in this nine at depth of
from loo to 500 feet.
Nor is this all. We, have 33S
feet Of ground ON the west side of
The creek which has never had
pic k in it and but little is known
about it.
Now we have the Shields prop
erty, with 1926 feet of vein on it.
But little is known about this
,nly on the west side where the
I'D shaft was sunk right on the {
inc. This is on the highest ground 6
nd we can see what is there from {
he old workings. Here we find :
'odv of soft ore about 300 ,eet long

veraging about $500 per ton,
1hicn is represented thus, 3ooy9o
40 100000 cubic feet, divided
y 90 cubic feet in a ton gives 81
10 tons at $1,000 per ton, equals
100000. Part of this is on the
