SHORT ITEMS GAzETTED.

Mrs. Emma Markham of Beaver
Dam, Wis, is visiting her parents,

J. P. Cooper left on Tuesday of
last week for the Pacific coast,
where he will join Mrs. Cooper and
their son, Robert Cooper, on an in
spection of the Lewis and Clark ex-
position. Mr.. Cooper expects to be
absent for six weeks.
The crappie harvest from the
lake is good one. The early
morning fishermen seem to have the
best of it and come up with strings
of from 10 to 20 of the chubby little
fellows. About next year the steel
headed salmon will be after baited
hooks.
Otto G. Goetze returned last Tues
day evening from a visit with his
wife who is at DR.. Taylor's san
itarium FIVE miles out of Pine City.
He reports Mrs. Goethe improving

NO REAL CAUSE FOR WAR.
II Will Likely Depend Upon KaIser's
Answer 10 French Note.

Paris. June 27.-For the first time
since the Fashoda incident the French
public Is in the throes of the war
fever. Whether 1t will result In any
thing serious depends on Germany's
response to the French note on
Morocco, but without considering the
exact status of the diplomatic nego-
tiations a considerable element of the
public and press seriously thinks of
the possibilities of resort to arms.
Army circles are particularly active
and at the military clubs the officers
are mainly engaged in making com.
parison of the forces of France and
Germany While the financial lead.
ers scout the idea of war, yet the
speculative element has been quick
to seize the opportunity to raid
French rentes, which when they clos.
ed tonight showed a fall of one franc,
eight centimes within the week. The
official view Is that the situation,
while delicate, does not present any
aspect of danger or q crisis involv.
ing a rupture of relations. This is
the governmental view and naturally
presents the most favorable aspect OF
the controversy. However, the am.
bassadors of the leading powers ex
press impartial opinions fully sustain
ing the view of the government.

ADDS TO SPLENDOR
MEN or BUSINESS RECOGNIZE
ADVANTAGES OF AcETYLENE.
Famous Summer Hotel, the Grand
Union Of Saratoga, Has Installed
This Best Of All Artificial Llghts--
Means Increased Comfort and
Health.

Saratoga, June 27.-The very name,
Saratoga" brings to every mind
yhealth-giving springs, unsurpassed
hotels and beautiful drives It
has been for many years the
Mecca for all who admire nature,
enjoy good living, and are searching
for health, or are simply taking va
cation.
The Grand Union, the largest sum-
mer hotel In the United States, set
among green trees with its long wings
enclosing a court with fountains and
flowers, grass and trees, music and
light, is throughout the season throng-
ed with guests. With the progressive
spirit always shown by Its manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to its attractiveness by introduce
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The ge.
NAL proprietors believe In furnishing
their guests with the best OF every
thing, and now, after investigating
and finding that Artificial Sunlight
can be had, they have installed COM
plete acetylene gas plant to produce
1t, and have connected upwards Of six
thousand acetylene burners in and
about the house and grounds to this
little gas plant.
Like many discoveries Of recent
years, which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene, one of the most re-
cent, is very simply produced. 1t is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light Is needed and the necessary ap-
paratus can be understood and oper.
ated by anyone.
The generator In which Acetylene
Is produced by the automatic contact OF
carbide and water might be termed q
gas plant, as 1t performs all of the func-
tions Of a city gas plant. The acct.
ylene generator can be purchased for
few dollars and in any size, from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to
ten or a dozen burners for cottage,
up to the large but still simple ma
chine such as is now furnishing
Acetylene for six thousand burners
In the Grand Union.
Outside of large cities the use OF
Acetylene is quite common. The
owner Of the country home now de-
mands running water, gas and other
conveniences which few years ago
were considered as luxuries, and
acetylene gas has met his require
ments, and gives him better and
cheaper light than is ordinarily fur
nished in cities.
1t is well known that rooms lighted
with Acetylene are more comfortable,
because cooler. and more healthful be-
cause the air is not vitiated.

Far East Negotiations Seem Doubtful
Just al Present.
VERY LITTLE PROGRESS MADE.
Announcement Of Plenipotentiaries
Was Expected Last Week, But the
Gar Seems to be Waiting on Some
Developments.

Washington, June 27.-Peace nego-
tiations between Russia and Japan
have come to a dead halt owing to the
illness Of Count Lamsdorff, the Rus
sian minister for foreign affairs 1t
is explained officially that nothing in
the form OF hitch has occurred, but
that the negotiations merely have
been suspended temporarily
Count Cassini, the Russian am
basSador, had a brief interview with
President Roosevelt today, but he had
no additional important advices from
his government to communicate. He
called merely to pay his respects to
the president prior to the latter's de-
parture next Monday afternoon for
The summer. They discussed in
formally the peace situation, the
president expressing his earnest hope
that another general engagement on
the battlefield of Manchuria might be
avoided by the negotiations for per-
manent peace now pending.
1t Is learned that up to this time
suggestions for an armistice have not
been received with absolute favor by
either Russia or Japan. Quite natur-
ally each government is seeking an
advantage over the other In the d.
plomatic sparring that Is now going
on, and among those in touch with
the situation it Is regarded as unlike
ly that definite arrangement for an
armistice will be concluded-even II
they should at all-before the formal
meeting OF the plenipotentiaries of
the two powers.
AS heretofore noted there is serious
apprehension that unless temporary
suspension of hostilities be arranged
a great battle may be precipitated,
the result of which might wreck COM
pletely the pending peace negotla-
lions.
1t was expected confidently that an
announcement Of the names of en-
voys of the two powers to the Wash
ington conference could be made by
the end Of this week, but as matter
of fact, the negotiations have not
progressed in the least since Tues
day That both Russia and Japan
have decided upon their representa-
tives at the conference is quite GER
tain, but each government Tor rea-
sons Of its own declines to make
formal announcement of them.
1t seems scarcely probable, at this
moment, that President Roosevelt will
be in position to authorize -furth-
err official statement of the status of
the pending negotiations before he
goes to Oyster Bay for the summer
While both Russia and Japan have
indicated they may be ready to open
the conference about the first of Aug
ust. the belief in well informed quar-
tiers now Is that the converting Of the
plenipotentiaries is likely to be delay
ed and that they may not get to-
gether until the middle or latter part
of August.

Yokohama.
Why patriotism should grow with
absence Is question for cynics and
philosophers and would be answered
by them in differing way, no doubt.
That 1t does SO grow is fact, and
one well exemplifed by the attitude
Of foreigners in the far East toward
their national holidays.
The days Of the British guardian
saints, st. Andrew, st. George and St.
Patrick, often forgotten at home, are
each marked by some especial festiv.
ity here, says correspondent, writ.
ing from Yokohama. The French col.
onies seem to double in numbers on
July IA, while the attitude of Ameri
cans toward the Fourth is quite in
contrast with their usual feeling al
home. That uproarious birthday Of
the republic whose celebration in our
cities is apt to drive the average mid.
die aged American born citizen to
country solitude is here anticipated
for days with real delight and cele.
brated with genuine enjoyment.
One Of the most topsy-turvy things
about the earth's other side, perhaps
is the fact that 1t never rains on the
Fourth. So says tradition; and ira.
dition has been justified, in Yokohama
at least, for ten years.
Early in the morning sounds the
old familiar popping Of firecrackers-
but 1t is intermittent merely and one
can breathe without inhaling brim-
stone. All along the streets, over the
gateways, flags and flying, at each
gate swings the Stars and Stripes,
crossed with the Japanese, the
French, the German, the Italian, Dan
ish, Dutch and most satisfactory OF
all, the British fag-"celebrating the
day we got rid Of you," as the Eng
lishmen say with smiling humor
About noon day fireworks are set
off all over the town, bombs that ex-
plode high in air, liberating fanclful
paper figures that float through the
sky until it seems full of creatures,
pretty or grotesque-a cat, bird, a
balloon, horse, tiger, Japanese
knight upon a rollicking charger. On
the streets everywhere, watching
these flying things, are children; the
Japanese with their gay kimonos and
butterfly bows, the English in shocked
frocks, the Americans in soft muslins
with ribbons-the little faces all
turned skyward, the little lips all
forming "Ohs!" or "Ahs!"

THIS RAZOR CUTS GLASS.
Discovery of New Steel That Will Cut
. Like Diamond.

A new steel that will cut glass like
a diamond, carve railway sandwich
with impunity, slash knotty billet
of redwood and yet retain an edge
keen enough to accomplish an easy
shave is the latest invention Of the
Sheffield steel makers.
The new steel is made by water
hardening process, and is guaranteed
to maintain its keenness of edge long
err than any steel now In use. Files
made from this steel will last four
times as long as those made at pres.
ent, while in pocketknives and razors
the new steel promises durability
and keeness that the makers say will
prove a veritable blessing to man.
kind.
The steel is to be put on the mar
ket in July.
