Special cable Despatch to Tnr SIS.

LONDON Sept. IA white paper was
issued Tonight containing despatch
from former British Amba ssador Sir
Maurice de Bunsen at Vienna dealing
with the Incidents leading TO the rup-
ture. The white paper says that all
the Ambassadors except the German
Amba ssador were kept in ignorance of
what was happening. Sir Maurice de
Bnnscn first learned privately of the
Developments on July Is. When notifi-
cation of the Austrian ultimatum to
Servia was given IL was first rumored
that 1t had been Internationally ac-
Cepted. There was keen disappointment
at this. but when II became known that
Servia had rejected the ultlmatum Vienna
was frenzied with delight and clamored
for punishment Of the hated Servians.
In subsequent negotiations aiming at
peace the German Ambassador did not
invite cooperation OF his British and
French colleagues. An arrangement be-
tween Austria and Russia seemed al
most In sight. The white paper CON
tinues:
Austria in fact had finally yielded
but unfortunately the conversations he
tween st. Petersburg ana Vienna were
cut short by the transfer of the dispute
to more dangerous ground of direct con-
fiict between Germany and Russia"

Found in a GIacisr.

Sir Martin Conway has recently told
this story of finding a lost az in tho
Alps: Z%urbiggen, one of the cc.c-
brated mountain climbers of tho
world, in scaling a peak Of Les An
glaises, near ChamouniX, accidentally
let his AK fall near the summit of the
peak. 1t fell some thousands of feet.
In the normal course of things it was
buried in snow and swallowed up in
the glacier, being covered deeper and
deeper each year, and at the samo
time being carried slowly downward
as the ice flowed on. Seven or eight
years afterward Hon. c.. G. Bruce and
Harkbir, a Sepoy chief, in descending:
a peak of the Alps just as night was
falling, and a great a barred,
the way, being unable to find ti,a
bridge ove it, cut a path down to
to bottom, where Harkbir stepped on
an ak which had M. q. Zu%rbiggen's mi
tials on the handle. There could be
no mistake as to the identity of the
ak, as Harkbir had seen it and used
it before.

HER TRUE CHARACTER
FloorWa.ser Has Observed That Wom-
an en- Shopping Expedition Re-
veais Herself as She Is.

Someone has said that you a al
ways Judge the caliber of a man by
the manlar in which he amuses him
self. My experience Of Is years as
floorwaiker in one of the largest de-
partment stores in the country has
convinced me that o can always
judge a woman by the way in which
she shops-which, after all, is only an
other way Of saying the manner in
which she NUS herself.
I have learned to realize that when
the average woman goes on a shop
ping expedition-when she has taken
up the trail of the bargain, determined
to track it to its native counter-she
brings all her cleverness into play. and
in the zest Of the chase she Is certain
to reveal her true self and uncon-
sciously drop the mask she wears on
most social occasions.
Always on the alert always eager
to bring down the game, big or little,
with a timely purchase, these shoppers
you will see browsing about the coun-
ters In and out of season. You will
see them questioning the s~alesgirls,
trying to learn in advance when re-
auctions are to be made. You will see
them pick out some article and then
come in day after day and watch its
price tag. Then when the price is low
cred to the point where they think it
is a bargain, you will see them pounce
on 1t and carry It home.-Woman's

Call Of the city.

Life in the city is needed for a real
appreciation of the country. Blake,
the painter and mystic dreamer, lived
in the heart of London! Millet, the
painter of French rural scenes, de-
lighted in his life in Paris; Turner
commenced life in Seven Dials. 1t is
possible for people to live in the midst
of earth's glories and not appreciate
them till someone from the city re-
veals to them the charm. OF late years,
we have heard much of the cry: Back
to the land" 1t will eve be much
more than a cry. Men in the mass.
will not go back. Mans ideal is not
the Garden of Eden. He has left that.
far behind and will never return to
.it.-Rev. w. H. Armstrong in the Daily
