Then appears for the first time, on

to bear simultaneously on Vienna and

Again, on July 25, Russia impor-

date from St. Petersburg to Sir Ed

II said that England could play the

this Interesting side light
to his government:
According to confident belief of
quiet during chastisement of Servia,
which Austro-Hungary is resolved to
infict, having received assurances
that no Servian territory will be an
nexed by Austria Hungary.
The German ambassador replied that
Servian concessions were all a sham.
Servia proved that she we'll knew
that they were insufficient to satisfy

tack upon Austria by Servia would
endanger the whole peace of Europe.
Perhaps You might see your way to
saying to them that such action on
the part of Austria probably would
mean Russian intervention, which
would involve France and Germany,
and that it would be difficult for Great
Britain to ekep out If the war were
to become general.

The German note emphasized the
view that It was a quarrel for Austria
and Servia to fight out, and that "the
imperial government desires urgently

Mistook Basket Running on Wires
Overhead for Bird and Gave Chase
Left Ruin Behind.

Nick heard a sudden, swapping clang
and then he saw something fly along
over his head. Nick is dog and his
business in life is hunting birds with
his master. Nick saw the something
above his head and quite naturally
thought it was a bird So he set off
to catch the bird. He did not step to
remember that he was in drug store
with his master and that drug store
is not a proper place to hunt In. He
was thinking only of the bird Over
counters and displays he went, scat
tering bottles and packages that drug
stores usually have set out for people
to buy, and he ended the chase at the
cashiers desk. There the bird had
stopped, and as his master and the
store proprietor came running through
the ruins Nick had made, Nick under
stood. 1t was not bird, but only a
basket that runs on wires from the
sales counter to the cashiers desk
and back again.
