summer months. Although grave fears
we're felt from the first, Mrs. Davis
wonderful vitality, which brought her
safely through similar attack year
ago, gave hope OF ultimate recovery
until Monday night, when decided
change for the worse was evident and
the attending physician announced that
the end was near. 1t was then believ-
ed that Mrs. Davis could not survive
the night, but che rallied slightly dur
ing the early hours OF yesterday.
Shortly after z o'clock yesterday
morning she had a similar spell and
Rev. Nathan A. Seagle, rector of st.
Stephens Protestant Episcopal church,
was hurriediy summoned to give religi-
GUS comfort to the patient in her last
moments Of consciousness. The clergy
man remained some time and an hour
later it was announced that Mrs. Davis
had larsed into state OF coma. The
period OF unconsciousn ess lasted to the
end.
Mrs. Davis has for some years made
her home in this city, where she had
wide clrrle OF friends. Throughout her
illness solicitous inquiries regarding
her condition were continually made
at her apartments.

CHINA AIMING. FOR FIGHT.

increasing Army and Revenue Under
Two Great Statesmen.
Washington. Oct. 18.-Conditions in
China, which were generally supposed
to have improved since the cessation of
the boycott on American goods and its
consequent agitation, are really much
worse, and the anti foreign feeling ia
greater than it ever was. Information
OF an absolutely trustworthy character
has reached Washington to this effect.
The Chinese army, under the guild
ing hand of Yuan Shin Kai, considered
by those who know China to be- the
greatest man In the country, is being
increased at tremendous rate, and the
government is putting great deal of
money into its main fighting force.
Yuan is viceroy OF the province of Chi
II, in which Pekin is situated. He has
very great influence and his main poll
cy seems to be to increase the army.
This fact, coupled with the show of for
elgn hatred, which is becoming more
and more apparent, makes the situation
serious.
Tank Shao vi is rapidly becoming
one OF the most powerful men in China
Not only has he an enormous salary az
viceroy, but he is also vice president of
the foreign Office and director general
OF the railway between Hankow and
Pskin. and occupies the same position

put from t24, 90. 900 In 1895 to more

increased by 90 per cent over 1904.
IN important fact in the advancement
OF Alaska's mineral industry during the

reduction in mining companies.
