longing to William q. Coates on Coats
Island, Lake Champlain, burned to the
ground Tuesday, entaling loss Of
about $4,000, only a small part of which
was covered by insurance. The origin
of the fire is unknown. The barking of
dogs and the kicking OF horses in the
barn first attracted the attention of Mrs
Coates, who was in the house short
distance from the barn. Three horses
and four cows were saved, but large
stock of farm tools and wagons, sleighs,
ETC.. was destroyed, in addition to two
calves and about 20 hens.

RUSSIA JOINS CHORUS.
With England and Germany. Will Stay
Away From Frisco.

St. Petersburg. Aug. 1.-The Russian
government today decided not to par
ticipate officially in the San Francisco
exposition
Berlin, Aug. although the German
secretary Of the interior declared to-
day that Germany had not yet taken
any action in regard to the question
of participation in the Panama-Pacific
exposition at San Francisco in 1915, the
opinion is freely expressed in official
circles that the German empire will not
be represented there
1t was pointed out today that the
British governments decision not to
participate settles also the action of
Germany, as the only factor which
might have induced the German gov
eminent to bring pressure to bear on
unwilling business men to exhibit was
the fear of unfavorabIe comparison
with Great Britain
Business men in the majority Of
cases declare themselves tired of the
expense connected with frequent expo
sitions and say they see no prospect
of financial returns should they exhibit
