STRIKE ON STEWART RIVER

DAWSON.-A new placer strike has been made on Nelson creek, tri- butary of Mayo lake, in the upper Stewart river district, and big stam- pede has been on to the place for the last several weeks. The latest news of the strike and the stampede is brought by Rev. Frank H. Buck, of the Anglican church, who is just back from a trip to the Mayo country. Chester A. Thomas, who was in the district recently, also confirms the news of the discovery and the stam- pede. The creek is said to be l5 to 30 miles long, and at last accounts, when Mir. Buck left Minto Bridge, 70 to 50 claims were known to have been staked, and more were still on the way there to plant their posts. The creek on discovery was about six feet to bedrock, and a summer proposition. The discoverers got 20 cents in gold to 16 pans. The best pan went 16 cents. Dawson News.

RUSSIAN MOBILES SENT TO
 SIBERIA BECAUSE THEY
 KEPT GERMAN NAMES
Special to Gateway a/ 'nited Press)

Special to Gateway B/ .nited Press)
 PETRoGRAD, Apr -L.-Premier sturmer is about to nange his name. He will adopt his wife's-Panin. Sumner is German name; Panin is Russian. That's why. Many Russian nobles with German names have been sent to Siberia because they refused to change them
 Ex-Procurator of the Holy Synod Sabler recently made similar change. So did Councillor of the Elm pire Neidhardt. So have many other Russian dignataries, civil and miIi- tary, who bore German patronymics.
 The anti-German wave throughout Russia is not purely a war sentiment. The war just gave it a chance to manifest itself. 1t is a popular re- action against German tuteIage which has lasted for generations and is generally held to have been largely responsible for the governments severity.
 It is not known that pressure was brought to bear on Sumner Sabler and Neidhardt to change their names, but this actually has been done in many other cases and possibly, secret ly, in theirs. Barons von Drummer Stempel and yon Rennenkampf lost government posts not long ago be- cause they declined to make the re- quired change.
 Baron Hahn and Count FahIen, who were marshals of nobility respocti- vely at Nitau and another Courland district, have been asked to resign their positions and leave for districts not in a state of siege.
 Baron von Mirbach, marshal of nobility at Dvinsk, Mayor PfeiAer of the same place, Count KayserIfng, Barons Meyendorf and von Heyking, who held high posts under the czar, and many other nobIemen of the Baltic provinces have actually been sent to Siberia for the duration of the war.
 All business either wholly or partly owned by Germans and, in some cases by Russians of German descent, have been closed, compulsorily wound up or placed under government control.
 Land ownership or tenancy by Ger mans or Austrians has been prohibit ed and even in cases where such own ership has continued for generations, the land is to be disposed of vo,untari- ly or at public sale.
 A number of Russian towns bearing Germans names have either aske0 that they be given new ones or have already affected changes
 In many towns and some entire provinces the use of the German lan- guage in the streets has been pro- hibited under severe penalties. Most of the secondary schools have elimin- ated it from their curricuIms.

With pleasure, mademoiselle," an
swered the comte. THE facts are
simple. As you should know, my
grandson here accompanied me to
England, recently. Ostensibly as a
member of the French military mis-
sion in the coronation; actually to ne
gotiate an important treaty between
England and France, In which three
foreign powers are vitally Interested
we were warned that cmissaries
of these powers were prepared to go
to all lengths to obtain a draft of the
treaty. To render it absolutely se-
cure. my grandson kept only a few
rough jottings of the French govern
ment's proposals upon place of pa
per in his coat pocket. He thought
that none would have suspected he
would carry 1t there. This paper was
stolen from his pocket at the doors
OF Westminster abbey"
