BROOK MAKES 4 SENSATIONAL
 ADVANCE

The most sensational advance in the Times contest today was made by Brook Lamprey, who jumped from the cellar to third place, with gain of 2,O0O votes, thus illustrating the ease with which any boy with but a few votes can jump up among the leaders. Another 2,O0O votes would put Brook in the lead.
 Harry O'Neil today comes in with 2,00O more votes, thus placing him. self in the lead and forcing John Rosswog to second place. Brook 8 sensational jump forces Sam Hedges to fourth.
 All the other boys retain their same relative positions, excepting that Charles Royal is now occupying the cellar, vacated by Brook.
 The spirit of the boys is unbroken' and the ease with which Brook man aged to jump up among the leaders will prove an incentive to the other boys now at the bottom.
 The only advice the Times has to offer to the boys is to seek out people who are not now subscribing to the Times and get their subscriptions They count twice as much as the old ones, and are easy to get if you can find them.

GERMANY MUST FACE NEW
 HATRED AFTER WAR

BERLIN, July 12. Prince von Buelow asserts that Germany must have something more than pre-war conditions when peace is declared, in the preface to his book, German Poli- cies."
 The former imperial chancellor maintains that the return of national lines as they existed before the war would mean loss to Germany.
 Declaring that Germany will have to reckon after the war with the bit ter hatred of France, England and Russia, he continues;
 This fact must disclose the condi' tions which we will have to face at the end of the war. This hatred and new lust of revenge in the west and east and across the channel can only be guarded against by increased pow CT. Our enemies, too, will strengthen armaments on land and water, and we for our part must meet this con dition We must make ourselves stronger and harder to be attacked on our borders and coasts than we were at the beginning of this war, not for the sake of striving for world su premacy with which he have beer falsely accused, but in order to main tain ourselves against our foes."

BIRCH AND BRIDE ARRIVE LIN THE
 MAR|POSA

stephen Birch, accompanied by his bride, arrived at Cordova today or the steamship Mariposa on theil honeymoon trip, and will remain 1T this vicinity for several weeks.
 The private car Kennecott has beer provisioned and will be at the dis posal of Birch and his wife during the time they remain here. For the accommodation of the bridal couple, the steamship Mariposa was remodelled. Several large staterooms were thrown together, forming an at | tractive suite, equal in every way tc the accommodations usually found ir the best hotels on the coast.
 The fact that Birch comes north now with his bride in rooms as com fortable as those of an Atlantic liner and is met at the dock by a private car as finely equipped as any in the world, emphasizes the contrast of con ditions as they existed when he first came to Alaska.
 When Birst first came north thia country was a wilderness, and t IS due to his efforts, more than to those of any other man, that the Copper river valley has reached its present stage of development He was tho first to realize the great richness of this section, and at the same time possess the necessary qualifications to enlist the support of the big money interests of the east in the venture.
 Birch first came to Alaska in 1888 in company with a government eXpGdi- tion in charge of Capt. Abercrombie. This expedition crossed the Valdez glacier and made it's way to the Yukon river. In 1900 and 1901 Birch ac- uuired interests in the famous Bon anza mines, purchasing the property from the original locators. The par chase of the Bonanza property by Birch was followed by litigation, ort- ginating over the title given to Birch by the original locators, the Chitina company, claiming that their title was invalid.
 This litigation lasted over period of three years, during which time teG- timony bearing on the case was taken in different parts of the United States, France and the Philippine islands. The case finally was decided by the court at Valdez in Birchs favor by Judge Wickersham, who was on the bench at the time. This decision later was confirmed by the circuit court of appeals, which settled the title and vested it in Birch and his associates.
 Following the acquisition of the pro perty. Birch devoted his energies to- ward building a railroad to the pro perty, This he accomplished, with the result that today one of the rich est copper mines in the world is pro ducing millions of dollars worth of copper each year.
 Had it not been for Birch, 1t is as' serted, the cannery at Orca probaply would be the extent to which this sec ton of the country would be devel- oped today His efforts have result ed in the opening of the Kennecott mines, the building of the Copper River railroad, and the founding of Cordova. Without him there would be no Cordoya.
 The people of Cordova recognize these facts, and are glad to accord him the credit to which he is entitled, and extend to him and his bride hearty welcome to the city.
