ACCIDENT 0N
 5. $. SEWARD
E. Erickson Dies From Injuries Re. ceived When Boat Rolls and He
 is Hit By Part of Cargo.

E. Erickson was killed and P. An derson injured on the Alaska Steam ship Company freighter Seward when hit by piece of machinery which was part of the cargo of the big boat and was destined for Latouche. The steamer was very light, having dis charged almost all of her cargo and was en route to Latouche from here to take on ore. The sudden and ter rife storm raging in the Sound caused the boat to roll and the freight to shift, and the two men were engaged in fastening down the loose pieces when caught by the three ton mass of iron which crushed and broke the leg of Erickson just below his hip and also inflicted internal in- juries from which he died this morn. ing at the marine hospital.
 Anderson is reported as not ser iously injured and will be out in a few days.
 Captain Johnson, immediately after the accident, which happened at six o'clock last night, turned his ship for Valdez and reached here at midnight and tue men were immediately cared for by the marine surgeon. Every possible relief was given the men en route to Valdez, but nothing could have saved Erickson as his leg was also cut off and he was severely in- jured internally.

PLACID CHINESE WOMEN.
An Illustration of How We'll Their
 Emotions Arc Hidden.

Emotions Arc Hidden.
 "Chinese women are trained to show no emotion, to appear absolutely placid under all circumstances" says Eliza beth Cooper, author of My Lady of the Chinese Courtyard" Il saw 1t H. lustrated at reception given to the wife of one of the high Chinese off, cials. All the women of the foreign official colony were at my home, about forty in number, and the great lady was announced. Every one rose. The room was q very long one, about sev- enty-fve feet, and had a very highly polished floor covered with Persian rugs.
 '"The Chinese lady came to the door, way, with a servant on each side of her to help her walk upon her tiny bound feet At the entrance they left her, and she started to come to me-; but, being almost helpless upon her golden lilies.' she stepped upon rug, which slid upon the polished floor, and instead of swaying like the bamboo in the breeze as she came to me she sat down suddenly and slid to my feet to the consternation and horror of the as- sembled guests.
 "She was raised to her feet, and, all though she must have been covered with confusion and embarrassment thus to make her first entrance into a foreign home, she gave her hand to me without a trace of emotion visible in her face or manner, nor did she apolo- gize. One would think by her appear ance that 1t was the usual mode of en- trance into q roorn."

be forced back by weight of num- bers and should retire into Belgium, the allies would not gain by that fact, as the French have been able to hold their present positions only because of the great French forts at Verdun, Foul and the other big modern forts on the border and around which the beaten French army has been able to reform when driven back from the attacks upon the German field forts. Place Both Armies On Equal Footing.
 The retirement into Belgium will place both armies on an equal foot ing, when the German army officers say that they can beat the allies with ease, as in almost every encounter in the present war where the forces are about equal the Germans have show ed superior fighting ability over the allies.

HoIIanders InsuIted By British.

Hollanders lnsulted By British.
 ROTTERDAM, Oct. 3.-The Hol- flanders are greatly enraged because of the action of the British command CTS of the North Sea warships, who ruthlessly search all ships flying the flag of the Netherlands; take from them German reserves, confiscate many ships and cargoes and insult the captains when they protest. The ship owners and commanders have made a protest, to the queen and have ask ed for protection, but the crown is powerless to aid them, as England is determined at any cost to stop Amportations of foods or war sup plies through Holland into Germany.
 Fear British Invasion.
 Many people in Rotterdam fear that Holland will be involved in the war within a month because of the oper- ations about Antwerp. Should Ger man troops violate the neutrality of the Netherlands without being op- posed by the Hollanders. the British would take advantage of the oppor- |'tunity to land troops, blockade the coast and declare war.
