Miller, aged 16, living within three miles of Beebe, when golnS it Thursday morning to turn cut the stock. was attacked by the ouil. which knocked him down and gored nitG.

The animal had never been considerd vicious and therefore no special precaution was taken to prevent any such occurrence.

POSTAGE TO ENGLAND DOWN.
Beginning Today. Rate to British
Isles Will BE Only = Cents.

WASHINGTON. Oct. Begin
ming tomorrow. letters to England
Ireland, Scotland and Wales will re-
quire only a cent stamp, instead
of > cent stamp to ensure delivery
at their destination. This reduction
in rates has been agreed upon be-
tween the two governments as the
best means of promoting commercial
and friendly relations between the
United States and Great Britain.
At present the new rate of postage
will apply only to the British Isles,
but eventually II may be extended so
as to include all of the British colon
ial possessions as well. If the result
of the new move sustains all that is
hoped for H. il is quite certain that
before long Germany, France and
Italy will be asking for similar ar
rangement with regard to letter mail
to those countries.
Until October 1907, the rate on
letters to England was ; cents for
every half ounce On that date, by
agreement of the Postal Union, the
rate was made cents an ounce.
There has been considerable prof
il to the government in the ; cent
rtae and last year about 20, 100000
pieces of letter mail were carried at
that rate. 1t is expected that the
volume of business will gradually of
set the diminution OF revenues.

MONTE CARLO BANK BEATS
LORD ROSSIIYN'S SYSTEM.
Gamblers Calculations Proved Wrong
in Ten Day Test Game With
dummy" Money.

LONDON. Oct The unique
gambling contest between Sir Hiram
Maxim and Lord Rosslyn came to an
end this afternoon with defeat for the
system advanced by the latter.
Lord Rosslyn claimed that by his
system of play it was possible to win
at roulette against the Monte Carlo
bank. Sir Hiram said this was i'm
possible. and to settle the eontro-
yersy the two men began playing
roulette in a Piccadilly club ten days
ago, Sir Hiram conducting the game
in the same way 1t is played at Monte
Carlo. Lord Rosslyn started to play
with $4,000 in dummy, money
and the bank had an equal amount
Lord Rosslyn's system has been
proved to be utterly fallacious. At
one period of the contest he was
about $4,000 to the good, but for
three days the bank has been a steady
winner, and his lordship's capital in
dummy money became exhausted
this afternoon.

next few years the islands are likely
to rival or possibly suruass Alaska.
Before the Spanish conquest, gold
dust in considerable quantities was
exported from the Philippines TO
China. For centuries. in a primitive
way the Fillipinos have mined for
gold, more or less successfully But
not until recently. as the result of
exploration and development work
by Americans, have been discovered
the extent and value of Philippine
gold fields.
Modern mining in the Philippines
is in It's infancy. In fact, work on a
large scale has scarcely commenced.
Yet next year from the mines OF the
islands will be eXcavated yellow metal
to the value of $l.000,000. And the
emplaeement of modern methods and
the installation of improved ma
chinery will make possible a produe-
tion of at least $5,000,000 yearly.
