No sooner was the news of the
vast inheritance of Marius Bonnaud
flashed through France, than women
from all parts of the country began
making him offers of marriage. The
modest and demure ones wrote, while
the impatient and the imaginative
hurried to a telegraph office. Seven
million dollars, thirty-five million
francs, to an unknown shepherd of
Sernhac from an English uncle he
had never heard of, was romance
enough to hold French attention for
three days during which Marius be-
came famous.
mistake: no such fortune had been
left When Marius was informed he
could not believe IT, particularly as
the offers of marriage still continued
to come in every mail, the late WOO
ers declaring their eagerness to wed
the good looking young shepherd,
money or no money. Today he is
saying: Il shall watt | am not yet
ready to choose wife" Some of
the love sick women offer substan-
tial fortunes of their own. and this
may help in the solution of the per-
plexity of Marius. The shepherd has
many friends who believe in his in
heritance, and he himself seems to
be convinced that he will yet receive
the fortune. Nevertheless, he takes
his flock daily to the pasturage, and
in the evening considers his many
offers of marriage.

The municipal authorities OF Paris
have under consideration an ordin-
ance making it obligatory for all mo-
tor cars to carry a device by means
of which passengers in the interior
of their car may stop 1t instantly
without the assistance of the chauf-
feur. Such a measure would prevent
accidents similar to that in which the
two children of Isadora Duncan met
their death. Another preventable ac-
cident of the same kind was caused
in Paris a short time ago by chauf-
feur fainting on his box. The pro-
posed device which the technical
committee Of the prefecture of the
Seine have before them for consid-
Grafton, is said to BE- easily applied
to any automobile at a cost of about
ten dollars.

tician to satisfy the demands of the ffty-nine thousand interests which exist through the length and breadth Of the land. It would never do to have the hardihood of saying anything that might smack of doubt of the tremen- dous capabilities of the last legisla- ture, or the first legislature. or what ever 1t was. A more sensitive body of men never sat in legislative halls and they take very i'll any effort to prove that they were not infailible but it may be taken as certain that much greater care will be exercised in fut- ure elections. This is not that the members of the legislature were not good men. They evidently did as well as any other legislature could do but it cannot be denied that the people gave them a lot of power without knowing what they were doing.

CALUMET, Aug. 12.-Judge Alfred J. Murphy, the special representative of the government. arrived here today for the purpose of offering himself as mediator in the strike which has been going on here for some time. Mur- phys mission was decided upon by President Wilson and the members of the cabinet when 1t was found that the strike would continue for an in- terminable period unless some effort V ere made to bring the conflicting sides together. It was also feared that some of the miners would become des . perate and precipitate a conflict which would result in the opening of fire by the military and the killing of many.
 Judge Murphy comes here with the reputation of man who understands the situation and who is in sympathy with workers. He has been received with friendly feelings and it is hoped that his mediation will be accepted and that the great strike will be final ly brought to conclusion.

EsKiMo WOMAN UNDER ARREST
 ON SERIOUS CHARGE.

Richard Griffin, a soldier, ig now in the hospital at Fort Davis as the re- suit of a wound received about o'clock this morning while he was in house west of Steadman avenue and behind the U. s. Mercantile com- pany's warehouse. A native girl nam ed Carrie is under arrest on the charge of doing the shooting.
 Four or five men. 1t is said, were in the house at the hour mentioned when the wound was inflicted. In addition to the woman named Carrie there was also present another native girl named Jennie. Both of them are well known in the city and are said to belong to the under world. It has been admitted by the woman Carrie that she held the gun at the time but she claims that the shooting was altogether acciden- tai. The soldier witness also says that the shooting was accidental and it g stated that Carrie only took the gun down for the purpose of playing or 'fooling," or, at least. that is what the witness Is said to assert. The gun was an old shot gun and the wound Is said this morning to be of such a nature as to render 1t impossible to save the limb.
 Griffin is a man who was arrested some months ago for stealing a parka from squaw. At that time the squaw caid that he wanted to marry her, but the woman Is not the one mixed up in the present case. The girl who has been arrested for the shooting Is one that was in the penitentiary and re- turned from 1t last spring. The mar shaPs office was informed of the oc- currence and both women were taken into custody.
 Dr. Neuman, who attended the wounded man assisted by Dr. Sloan. says that the right leg Is badly shat tered below the knee. He was called to the scene by the woman who Is ac-  cused of the act. She ran excitedly into his room and was almost hyster- ical. She even tried to drag the doctor out of bed. When he arrived on the scene he found others already taking the wounded man away. All seemed to be drunk who were present whea the shooting took place.
 Roth doctors seem to think that the leg cannot be saved. They think that at present there is no reason to be- lieve that the man will die if no com plications set in.
 Griffin's time will be up fin March, which means that he has served more than two years in the army. Word was received at 9 o'clock thls afternoon by Dr. Neuman from the doctor at the fort oyer the phone that Griffin is likely to die from loss of blood and shock.

MEMBERS OF MINE
 SAFETY ASSN. MEET

WASHINGTON. Aug. s.-Mine operators. mining engineers and mine surgeons representing practically all important mining companies in the United States will gather at Pittsburg on September 2s to discuss methods for reducing the death toll in mines and quarries. These men are members of the American Mine Safety Associa- tion which held its first meeting one year ago in Pittsburg.
 Here is the problem they have on hand. In the year 1911. s.sos men were killed in the mines and quarries of the United states. sixty-thres thousand three hundred and one were injured during the same time. The death rate for m mining that year reached a6s mon h every 1.ooo employed.

MILAN, Aug. 12.-A general na- tional strike has been proclaimed in this country which is hoped to have the same effect as the strike which took place in Belgium some time ago and brought the government of that country to it's knees. so to speak.
 Most of the labor organizations of Italy have declared their Intention to stand by the order to strike and should the walkout be as general as 1t is ex-. pected to be most of the industries of the country will be brought to . standstill.
 The opinion here Is that the coun- try is too large to make such strike effective. Belgium Is SO much more compact and the population Is so much smaller that general strike could be organized more easily. The workers. however. are confiden. that they will come out victorious.

ASSESSMENT MUST BE
 IN THE SAME YEAR

The register of the land office re- ceived a lengthy opinion on the last mail from the Secretary of the Inter for which states that the assessment work on claims must be done within the calendar year on which, they are located. The Wickersham bill pro- vided for the accomplishing of as- sessment work in the calendar year but much objection and doubt was ex- pressed. Many people believed that the assessment could be done in the year after that in which ground was staked but the Secretary of the In- terior now decides the question once for all when he says that the work must be done before the first of Janu- ary following the stalking.

Time seems to have the effect of causing that Shushana strike not to look so very much "better than Daw- son or Fairbanks or Nome at their best" Evidently some of the Anvil creeks are like Peluk sreeks and those two men who took out a fortune in few hours are probably the same two men who have done service since the Nugget published the story of the strike last month. Still that camp may be really good although 1t may not be as rich as some people wished to make it appear. When the Nugget first heard the news of strike 1t pub lished 1t for what 1t was worth and with the hope it was a fact. Evident ly the thing since has been exag- gerated. This paper has tried to get the real news about it. Such is dif- ficult as 1t is impossible to reach the section itself direct but it is to the best interest of this paper as we'll as to the whole community to have the real truth. The Nugget would have nothing to gain by trying to hide things for a day or two. Of course the Nugget wants to see Nome flourish more than other places. It Is not a, paper that sees failure ahead of 1t and that might feel sore at the people of Nome and try to injure them as/a last satisfaction by creating stampedes to other regions even at the expense of the men who are broke. But 1t would gladly tell so if it was sure that the new strike were really rich. At present it certainly does not look 50.

ALBANY, Aug. 11.-Governor Sul- ger has issued statement in which he denies absolutely the charge that he used campaign funds of his party for private speculation or for any other purpose than that for which they had been contributed. The statement is made in strong language and gives the lie direct to his ene- mics:
 q deny," he declares, "that used the campaign contributions for my personal use. I deny that I speculated in Wall Street, and deny that I used the money contributed for the cam paign to buy stocks anywhere, or in anything"
 He appeals to the justice of the peo- pie of New York to wait until matters have been completely investigated and he promises to show that the accusa. tions made against him are only thu inventions of his enemies amongst whom he places first the members of the Tammany hall organization.
 Needless to say,. the papers of the city and the whole country, have been filled with accounts of the evidence given last Saturday before the com- mittee which was appointed to make an investigation into the accusations made against the governor. Some of the newspapers take the evidence pro- duced as fatal to the career of the governor but others. amongst which are the Hearst papers. say that the governor will be cleared of the stigma. One fact that is particularly dwelt upon is that 1t will be easy to prove which is right and which is wrong The enemies of the governor assert that they can prove without difficulty the truth of the charges on which the impeachment will be founded. The formal impeachment proceedings will be commenced as soon as possible.

Suffice 1t to say that such people as those mention ed when let loose are a menace to many. not only in what might be called the obvious sense, but from the point of view of health. They should receive less freedom than the whites of the same genus" This ought to be enough to draw the necessary at- tention to an evil which should be eradicated.

of New York, be impeached, flor will full and corrupt conduct in office and for high crimes and misdemeanors." ]"
 This resolution when put to the house was passed and SO is the way cleared for the great ordeal out of which a governor of the greatest state of the union may come disgraced and degraded.
 Unfortunately, perhaps. the country seems already to accept the guilt of the governor as fact. The witnesses who swore before the committee about the use of the campaign funds for private uses were men whose word has already been accepted by public opinion. It is pretty we'll known that Tammany has caused the governor to be placed in his awful predicament. It accused him of betraying 1t and his best supporters when he had reached power and it left no stone unturned to ruin him. But 1t is also pointed out that even Tammany could not have destroyed him had his record e1d character been clean. That Tammany is 1ubilant goes without saying and never has the great organization gain ed such a complete victory whether the Impeachment proceedings go against Sulzer or not. The general opinion today is that those proceedings will end in Sulzers political destruction.

OAKLAND. Aug. 13.-Miss Eleanor Fay attempted to commit suicide yes- terday by jumping into the bay near the Oakland ferry but she was res- cued by the plucky action of man who was a ferry passenger. After having been taken from the water Miss Fay declared herself to. be the wife of Louis R. Glavis, who was so much in the pubic gaze during the troubles re- lating to Alaska coal lands and when he accused Ballinger, the secretary Of the interior: and others with derel!c- tion of duty. Later. however she stated that she is not his wife but only his iiancee. The statements of the girl coupled with the attempt to com- init suicide have given rise to some- thing of sensation but most people are inclined to believe that she is suf- fering mentally and that her state- ments are not to be given credence. The facts are expected to come out at the hearing which win take place la ter.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-Senator Fletcher introduced bill today pro- viding for the establishment of rural system of banks which would be own ed and managed entirely by the farm CTS. He states that after careful study of the system in vogue at pre- sent he believes that such an inno- vation would mean at least that the farmers would save the expenses which they must now meet because of the loans which they find necessary. The bill proposes to have these banks under government control and the banks would be operated as national banks. ~-@.
 Opposition to the bill has already been made evident and it is sure that the bankers will not consent to give such bill their support. It is feared that the establishment of such sys- tenn of banks would have the effect of injuring to an enormous extent the banks which are already in exis- tence in rural districts.

This paper has tried to draw at. tention for some time to the fact that Nome will have a hard task to keep its head above water and at last nights meeting of the city council the chairman of the finance committee an- nounced some figures which show clearly that the municipality will "be in the hole' at the end of the present fiscal year. In giving warning about this the Nugget was contradicted and even told that 1t was actually lying. The word lying was actually used but here we are now up against the very condition which was foretold.
 Nome has now about ss,000 balance. The most 1t can get from licenses is $10,000. If it raises as much city taxes as 1t did last year it will receive from this source about s21.0oo. That means altogether $34.000 and that is giving the receipts the best of it. But that sum has to meet an expenditure of about $40,000 which will leave bal ance on the wrong side of $6,0O0.
 This is a nice "how- do- you do' for a municipality that had thousands of dollars to the good a couple or three years ago.
 It would be the worst thing in the world to let education thing in the world to let education suffer for lack of funds. Education is the spark which ignites the light in the minds of mankind and that spark must be provided even if the people must go down into their peck. cts in the cause of education. Tn other countries parents are compelled to pro- vide for the high school education of their children out of their own purses and if all comes to all they will do 1t here. but as taxes are supposed to meet the education expenses in this country taxs will have to be met. and country taxes will have to be met. and by that means education must be pro vided.
 All this should have been seen be- fore. however. and when we were told that Nome was in a financial con- dition that might make the mouth of old Croesus water we were told some thing that was not a fact and now the truth is out and the tax payers can see the matter as they have been ask ed to see 1t since the last city election by this paper.

According to those who came in on the Victoria the money situation in Europe and the United States has been such during the winter that many enterprises have been stopped and many new ones postponed. Advices from all parts of the world declare that the Balkan war and the possible outcome of it with respect to the whole continent of Europe caused a tighten ing everywhere. Some of the effects were felt directly in Nome although 1t would not be advisable to give the story in detail. In one particular case the Balkan war had perfectly direct influence on one undertaking on this peninsula and this little fact demon strates the strange conditions that prevail under the present international arrangements.
 It is becoming more clear all the time that the interests of all lands are interwoven more and more by the facilities for the intermingling of the races. It is probably considerations arising from such facts that prevented war between the great European powers when they had mobilized their armies and navies within the last twelvemonth. Indeed the fact that war in the southeast corner of Europe could exert an influence on the northwest corner. of America Is a vivid example of the strangeness of the times we live in.

The arrival of Envoy Lind ip Mex
 leo was certainly an event that was surrounded with that electric quality
 which is called dramatic. Had the
 Mexicans not been able to restrain themselves on his arrival and if they had insulted him there would probab- ly have been nothing left to this coun. try but to declare war. Al 1t is the event passed of quietly, at least on the first day of his visit. and . very great load must have been removed from the minds of the administration The picture of Secretary Bryan waiting until the small hours of the morning for the news of Lind's re- ception .is one that would do credit to the painter of dramatic scenes. 4 man in Bryan's position feels the weight as outsiders cannot conceive War is always bad but war with Mexico promises very little or no ad- vantage to this country. The acquisi- ton of more Mexican territory would bring with 1t the govsrninE oe Mex jeans and the United states haa learned enough by fts experience In the Phillippines to know that this would be very poor reccmpense for the loss o3 money and lives consequent ssupon conquest of that republic.
