WHAT THE WAR Is ABOUT.

A good deal has been said about the
wal between Italy and Turkey, but
very little has been printed as to
what the war is about. Italy wants
Tripoli as the gateway to the great
northern African country; a country
of wonderful promise; but n of
which little is known. She called upon
Turkey to e~vacuate, and when the
Turks didn't move, Italy did. Her
reason for demanding that she be
permitted to occupy Tripoli was to
insure the safety of Italian residents.
In addition to this Italy demands
satisfaction for a series of incidents,
among them being the arbitrary and
unwarranted arrest of a number of
Italian subjects in Constantinople;
their Imprisonment in spite of the re-
monstrance of the italian govern
ment; the seizure of an Italian bark
in the Red sea; the abduction of a
young Italian girl by an Ottoman
and the refusal of the authorities at
Constantinople to compel her release.
These are said to be only a few of
the grievances which Italy has
against the barbarous Turk. The
Turk is the same old Turk who har-
ried and harrassed the Greeks in an
inhumane war waged against TIM,
ending in the occupation of much
Greek territory; until the Greek
awoke and drove back the barbarous
hordes, in which work he was assisted
by free lances of this country and
England, and those countries them
selves finally taking a hand in the
matter. What reason there is for
the existance of the semi-eivilized
monarchy of Turkey in these en-
lightened days does not seem ap-
parent; and the prayer of the Chris
tian world should be hat Italy, nov
that she has started upon the holy
war of determination, makes a first
class job of it.

THE BIG SMOKE is BROKE.

News comes from merry old Eng
land that Jack johnson is bankrupt;
that he cannot pay the salary of his
secretary, the wages of his valet, of
his chauffeur or wife's maid. The
big smoke is broke. The white
mans hope has doomed up in the
shape of extravaganza and expensive
and luxurious tastes, and johnson
has been knocked out before the next
champion of the ring could reach up
and yank the laurels of the arena
from his dusky brow.
1t has been the old story of put a
beggar on horseback and he will ride
to the DEVIL The champion of the
fistic arena choose an automobile
instead of a horse, and his pace to
the demnition bowwows was all the
faster. 1t Is little more than a year
That he came into fortune through
his fight with Jeffries, and he Is
credited with having gone through
$4,000 in that time. Johnson got
the swelled head worse than any
champion OF the ring ever known.
He got a white wife God save the
mark a valet, bless you; a secretary,
too, mind you and a maid for the
white wife and then a chauffeur.
Then he went over to England, where
they don't draw tile color line; and
was going right into the coronation
of the king and queen. But the
white mans hope, in the shape of a
policeman, backed him and his men,
age off the boards-back to the
wilderness and the darkness.
Nobody will be sorry for johnson
in his financial straits. The money
came easy to him, and 1t filtered
through his fingers like water through
a sieve. The courts in England have
enjoined his last arranged match;
and the people of England have failed
to make of him the popular idol they
usually do of champions. He has fall
en- fiat in the old country where he
had fondly hoped to meet the great
est of receptions, and greatest of
rakeoffs 1t will perhaps be a long
lime before he will again participate

ago last July, and rake in $40, 900

Most of those attending the school
are employed in the mines, mills and
cyanide plants of the vicinity, and
the existence of the school enables
them to perfect themselves in their
chosen lines of work. Aside from
the material advantage of this policy.
1t makes possible a comparison of
local methods with those of other
districts.
The school opened this week under
favorable auspices, and the prospects
favor a large and enthusiastic atten-
dance. A fine equipment for the
course in physics has been ordered.
which will place this department of
the school on an up-to-date plane.
A course in prospecting has been ad-
ded to the regular work of the school,
and this section promises to attain a
distinct and enviable fame. 1t aims
to equip the man afield with COM
plete knowledge of the law of To-
cations and field test of metals. In
a general way the prospecting course
deals with surface alterations of ore
minerals and the consequent effect 1t
has upon the value at the surface,
rock formations and their chemical
alterations and determinations. Nc
other state in the union suffers SO
much from careless or indifferent
prospecting, and the course pres
cribed by Virginia City with special
reference to the Nevada field is one
OF the most m%eritorious devised by
any school on the continent.
