BRYAN AGAIN
 MAKES A TALK
SAYS WE SHOULD PREVENT BRITAIN OPENING MAIL TO
 NEUTRAL COUNTRIES.

WASHINGTON, June 18.-William Jennings Bryan issued the third in stalment of his address to the public today. In it he advocates mediation between the warning powers and speaks in favor of the formation of an investigation commission that might draw up a peace treaty plan that would be acceptable to all the powers engaged in the great conflict. He declares that the United States should insist on preventing the gov ernment of Great Britain from open ing mail sent from the United States to neutral countries and from them to this country. The statement will prob ably be continued into a series that will last for some time.

CHAMPS AND SCRUBS
 WILL MEET TONIGHT
Darlington and Burley May Be On the Side of the men Who Will
 Face the Pick.

The All-Seward Nine will face the Also Rams this evening on the home diamond for the first practise game in the series intended for the training of the local champions. The so-called scrubs have a hunch they can show how little difference there is between the men who came under the eye of the selection committee and the others. Darlington will pitch for the Of-Colors and it is said that Burley will be we'll enough to give them a hand. The managers still retain sil- ence as to the composition of the championship team. In addition to Campbell, the skipper, it is sure to contain Darlington, Grady, Nickerson, Slugger Reed and few more could be guessed at with a good chance of being right, but all the rest would only be a guess and nothing more.

MANY ARE PROSPECTING
 ALONG THE RAILROAD,
Several Veins or Small Ledges Dis covered and Men Are Follow
 ing Them Up.

From Mile 41 to Mile 52 on the AL aska Northern railroad about fifty prospectors are now busy following up several veins and lodges that have recently been discovered. Some of the lodges are said to be very good. One party is prospecting on the north side of the track, and about half mile from it, near Mile 40. About half a dozen locations have recently been made about one mile southeast of the track about opposite Mile 41 or half mile beyond. A ledge has also been discovered on the east side of the track at Mile Forty-fOur and a half.
 The first discoverey around Mile 40 was made last summer. Quite a camp of prospectors is located on the flats about Mile 51. These men are pros pecting at the head of Bartlett Glaci- CT at the foot of which they found rich float. On Placer river, about Mile 56, more prospectors are working. The people out there think they have the continuation of the Port Wells formation.
