A FIVE WEEKS TRIP.

When those Of us who are now mid
Of our spare time reading books OIL
adventure, Jules Verne wrote his story
of the man who Travelled around the
world in eighty days. OF course we
knew that the thing couldn't be done,
any more than other wonderful jour
neys to the moor could be taken, out
the idea was one to fire The imagina-
ton, the story was we'll told, n IL
had about il an air of plausibility.
Most of us admitted that after a while,
when facilities for travel had become
perfect, an approach to the realization
Of the Frenchman's dream might be
possible. Then somebody actually did
the trick. Then the time was cut a
few days at a time, and n good many
men filled considerable space in the
papers by breaking the globe-trotting
records. Yesterday evening, unless he
met with a mishap on n last day, a
mar completed the trip around the
world in just thirty-five days, n not

ion knew that such a race was on, or
will care much about it now that it is
oyer. So accustomed have we become
to rapid transit that putting a eirdle
around the earth in five weeks can
scarcely attract more han a passing
thought.
This journey was commenced by Mr..
Mears at 12:43 a. m. on July 2, and
by the time he landed at Victoria the
traveller was exactly one month away
from home. The first leg of this UNI
ique trip was across the Atlantic
aboard the Cunarder Mauretania. His
itinerary took him by way of London,
st. Petersburg and Mukden, Nlad-
livestock, Tsuruga and Yokohama. Mr..
Mears caught a boat from Vladivo-
stock to Tsuruga, and left the latter
port by the 7:40 express for Yoko-
hama. arriving at S:23 "A. m. on July
"a. He boarded the steamship Em-
press of Russia at Yokohama some
time prior to her departure at 4 p. m
His trip is estimated to occupy 1881
hours and 35 minutes.
From Victoria Mr.. Mears went d.
rectly to Seattle and then continued
his journey by way OF Spokane, Mime
apolis. ST. Paul and Chicago. He hoped
to reach New York by shutdown on
August 6.

A o DAY SCARE.

For certain tempera ments these
midsummer days are prolific of scares.
We have had-on paper-several in
vasions of the United States by Japan,
and the subject is beginning to pail
a little. Mexican reports have been
worked for all they are worth. and
then some. There Is some promise
in the announcement tina old Porfrio
Diaz has started for Mexico by way of
Japan. where he is to he met by his
nephew, Felix, and that the two are
to return together and settle affairs
in Mexico. 1t has not yet been an
nounced that they are to bring the
Japanese army and navy along with
them, first to settle the hash of Next
Co. n then to s%ubiugate the United
States . That story has not been start
ed yet, but it will be.
Just as an interlude we are given
q little British scare. Great Britain
has announced her intention not to
participate in the Panama-Pacifc ex-
position at San Francisco. Immedi-
ately the finders of mares nests re-
called that there has been some diff
ference of opinion over the matter Of
canal tolls, and interpreted the Brit
ish announcement as a direct slap at
Uncle Sam on account Of hat con-
: troversy. They failed to note that
Germany also is not to be represented
at the exposition. The British authori-
tics hova CfaSa6 craoiGool IL, tL,% 49,
thing that troubles them Is the mat
ter of expense, M that canal tolls
have nothing to do with the subject.
1t might also be noted that no effort
Is made to induce any Of the British
colonies to remain away from the fair,
that Canada is preparing to make a
big exhibit, and that Canada is really
=, more interested in the tolls dispute
than is the mother country. But now,
to add fuel to the flame, comes the
news that Great Britain Is to be re-
habiitate Bermuda. which has been
in a state OF desuetude for some time,
as an important naval base, and ex-
citable people naturally see immedi-
ately the Monroe doctrine shot full Of
holes, and demand information as to
what lie to be o n about it. They put
n and one together and easily make
seventeen Of it.
Anyone who knows anything what
ever about the history Of this country
knows that h Monroe doctrine was,
in its inception. more British than
American. The PRONUNCIATION OF such
4 doctrine appealed to the British Sec
retAry Of state a. a very desirable
thing for his country at a very inter-
ssting. II not critical. period of that
eountry's history. 1t was politely sug-
sested to the American government
that the announcement of such a doc
trine would be q e a thing. and. al
this also appealed to u government

great proclamation was made.

government at Washington should an
nounce to the world tina after mature
elaboration it had been decided that
the Monroe doctrine vas not worth
all the fuss that it raised, that il was
hereby and herewith called off. and
that the nations of Europe were at lib
erty, for all we cared, to play checkers
that announcement would he one of
the most costly things thai could hap

European nations as we'll. As it is,
they cannot fight over possessions in

involve fighting the United States.

tions. would he a rather large order.
All those nations are we'll satisfied to

1t appears that what Great Britain
