There was an old geezer and he
 had a lot of sense; He started up a business on a
 dollar-eighty-cents- The dollar for stock and the eighty

 smile on his face The customers flocked to his two
 by-four And soon he had to hustle for a
 regular store. Up on the square, where the peo- ple pass, He gobbled up a corner that was all plate glass. He fixed up the windows with the best that he had And he told 'em all about it in a half-page ad. He soon had e'm coming and he never, never quit And he wouldn't cut down On his ads one jit. We'll, he's kept things humping fin the town ever since And everybody calls him the Msr- chant Prince. soluu say it's luck, but that's all bunk Why, he was doing business when tho times were punk.

NEW PLAGERS ON
 HE kLOTASSIN

Dawson News, Sept. 14: A placer strike made last March on Rude and Dip creeks, tributaries of the Klo- tassin, is reported to be attracting some attention. The KlotasSin is a tributary of the White river, and Dip is a tributary of Klotassin. Rude in turn flows into Klotassin. The Kotassin is the easterly branch of the Donjek, and heads in the same vicinity as the Selwyn. The new trail built about two years ago ly the Canadian government from Coffee creek to the head of the White in or6er to get the Chi sana trade crosses the Klotassin, and Dip is understood to flow into the klotassin, six miles above the trail crossing. The discovery on Dip is said to be about 2S miles from the mouth Of Dip,
 The discoYerers were Jens Rude and George Jensen. They record ed adjoining discovery claims on the first stream last spring, and named it Rude, after one of the partners. After the lapse Of 60 days they were entitled to To- cate again, and in August they located again, getting claims Nos. 1 and ? above discovery. They al- so located on Dip in August. When here recently they recorded and told the mining recorder they had fair prospects. Rude and Jensen left here three or four days ago by boat, and it isunderstOod they are On the way back to their claims on Rude and Dip. They are under stood to land at Isaacs creek, on the Yukon, near the mouth of Brit annia, and to cut across country from that point to the new locality.

MYSTERY IN TIE MURDER
 IF AN INDIANA PASTOR

nearby in q lot Postmaster Snyder advanced the theory that the preach CTS tragic end was the continuation of a series of anonymous letters he had received warning him to cease his at tentiOn to a woman in Gary
 The woman denied any relations with the pastor. Less credence is paid apparently by the officials to the theo- ry that KaYser was killed because of his Germanism, his private and public utterances, favoring the Germanic pre- tensions in the war.
 Several months ago Kayser turned over to me a batch of threatening let ters.'' said Postmaster Snyder. "The letters warned him to cease his atten'- ton to a Gary woman. Postal inspec- tors questioned the woman who denied having any relation with the pastor.
 Chief of Police Heinz ordered that the Gary woman be questioned.
 Kayser was shot in the chest and through the jugular vein. His death was due to the loss of blood. according to the coroner. Presumably dying, he was dragged forty feet away from the light of the windows Of his home and tied with a window cord about the wrists and ankles. He had been dead more than an hour when his body was discovered.

 Most States Have Sev- eral Governors Instead of Only One

 BOARD SYSTEM
Well Adapted for Logisla- tive or Judicial Work, They Fall Down When It Comes to the Executive Duties, He Declares
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcH1

BOSTON, Mass, Aug. Ex-Governor Winfield $. Hammond of Minnesota, who addressed the Governors Confer ence here today on "EGficiency and Economy in State Government. said that one reason for the present lack of efficiency was that, in effect. most states have several governors instead of one. Enumerating the varies state com missions and boards which have come into being as a part Of the executive department of d state administration, he said:
 "All this has resulted in giving the state not one governor but number of governors, one of whom is elected. the others appointed by various boarAs and commissions. The governor of the state bears about the same relation ship to many of these boards as he bears to the courts. and it is fundamen- tai that the executive and the judicial departments shall be independent of each other. If judge resigns, the gov ernor may appoint his successor, so if one of these members should resign, the governor could appoint his success sor. but he has about as much to do with the policies and the work of these bOdIuS dS IlC ItiS Wllll lllt lttii HIS eAAAAA determination of cases of law.

Salaries and travelling expenses are continually increasing. while in political campaigns the cry for economy goes merrily on.
 Tn Minnesota for some time there has been a feeling that there should be a thorough reorganization of thSse various offices that they should be in cluded in the executive department. and should be under the control and direc- ton of the executive himself or depart ment officers selected by him.

May Satisfy United States

WASHINGTON Aug 25.-The president has been informed unof
 ficialIy from sources close to Count won .Bernstorff. the German ambas- sador. that the next communication from Berlin on the sinking of the Arabic will he of a character to satisfy the United States. Coming close on the telegram the ambassa dor forwarded to the state depart ment yesterday by direction of his government declaring it was not the intention of Germany that any Amer ican lives be sacrificed. this develop ment is regarded as indicating that Germany will make some proposal satisfactory to the United states respecting the submarine attacks cn purely passenger carrying vessels
 Officials are at a loss to coaiecture what the German government will propose. but assurances that there IS every desire in Berlin to avoid break with the United States relieved the situation here very much
 Heretofore Germany has contended that neutral lives could not insure a bellicerent ship against attack, espe
 cialIv those carrying munitions. In it's reply to the first Lusitania note Germany proposed to designate cer- toin ships which would be guaranteed against attack. but the American gov ernment flatly rejected that proposal. officials are eager to know what position Germany will now take with out surrendering her contended right fo submarine warfare against enemy commerce. The aim of the president and all administration officials to avoid a rupture with Germany, but to do so without any surrender of neu- tral rights for which the United States has been cOntending in the name of international law and hu- manitv was reflected by officials ln- formally while discussing this latest phase of the situation. They are hopeful a disavowal of the submarine commanders act in sinking the Ara Die without warning will he forth coming but the administration IS ready to listen to Berlin's next word

They also saw the aerial re- pulse of an attack on the destroyer flotilla by dreadnaughts.
 While the governors and guests were absorbed in the interesting and beautifully executed maneuvers of the big dreadnaughts, the destroyer flo- tilla suddenly disappeared and with Q dash that thrilled the spectators made an attack on the east of the battleship line from ahead. After the larger vessels countered the att tack the destroyers drew off to the southward. Later the battleships es- corted the Wyoming until Gloucester was approached. when all but the flagship headed eastward and steamed towards the southern drill grounds off the Virginia coast for target practice

Takes Him from Luncheon Party and Confers With Him for Half an Hour on Arabic SittIatiOn-Result Not Revealed
 NENTC0NMUNICATION TO BE SATISFACTORY President is Informed In officially That NcEt Com munication from Berlin Will Be Satisfactory to the United States
IAssncIArEn PRESS p1sPArcHl

BERLIN. Aug. 25.-Ambassador Gerard at two o'clock this afternoon received g. request from Foreign Minister von Jagow to call upon him. and immediately left q luncheon party to respond 10 the invitation. The amhassador conferred for half an hour with the foreign minister Gerard afterwards would say nothing rcsard- ing the conversation.
 While the situation regarding the case of the Arabic is by no means clear, indications are noticeable of a belief that a moderate amount of optimism regarding the case is well Justified. and that way will be found out of the entanglement even should it be established the steamer was torpedoed without warrington assumption which the German govern ment as vet in the lack of any of ficial report on the subject. has no reason to accept.
 Newspapers and the public seem hardly to have awakened to the nature of the situation. Between the diver gent views of Theodore Roosevelt and William J. Bryan which they were given today. they find little en- Iightenment regarding the real state of American public opinion. The for eisn office. however. is evidently fully aware of the delicate nature of the situation and is disposed ts avoid crisis
