n reading Of the assassination Of the
premier of Austria people are inclined
to rank him as the principal officer OF
the government but as matter of
fact he was not even an official Of
the Austro-Hungarian dual monarchy,
but merely of one Of the PROVINCES
that compose that monarchy. For a
comparison it would be proper to
rank the murdered Stuergkh about
with the governor Of one Of the larger
states OF the American union The

age and i'll health OF the emperor
Franz Joseph, Won Burian and his
cabinet are practically the governing
power in the country.

 It is reported that plan is now on foot to hold a Carnival of the Midnight Sun with view of gain. ing sufficient finances from the pro- ceeds of the festival for the estab-I lishment of a children's playground at Barrack Square or elsewhere. The movement is said to be headed by Dr.. Heimlich. The Health De- partment has now cleared off the rubbish off the open space off old River street and to the tide water by the. dog house which is the pro- perty of the city. This makes a fins playground for children as it is a. though the proximity of Snake river makes it in one way hardly safe. It's busy scene along tho water front these days from the Sandspit to Standard Oil. Duffy O'Connor has been putting in a new stem and foremast on the Hettie B. repairing the damage inflicted upon the schooner by the steamer Victoria last open season in Golovin Bay Leo Seidenverg has bought out en- tire the interest of Wheeler in the Mary Austin which is also being given an overhauling.

The boat also has had mechanical fitting placed upon the anchor winch SC that the hook can be heaved with power M'Lean has devised handy automatic clutching device for the hatch elects and within and without the vessel has been given a general revision, overhauling and repairing. The boat will be all ready for na- vigation when the ice leaves and open water permits it. The Flyer is being painted mad repaired for the summer trade between Nome and Solomon and when Cap Brick son arrives on the first boats he will be pleased to take her over as good as new. The Belinda which is lying on the waves by Snake river is also being re-fitted and repaired. The Challenge is being very extensively over-hauled for trade in the Arctic and very extensive improvements have been effected. All the boats in fact are well on the road to readiness for launching and it is certain all will be ready long be- fore the ice condition admits their

PEACE FAR OFF, - With Lloyd
George premier of Great Britain
peace is a long way off. His policy
was outlined weeks ago when he said
the war must go to a knockout. Now
that he is on the job as the big boss
he will no doubt mobilize all the re-
sources of the empire to rechange
the cap of Europe before listening to
peace proposals. Lord Northcliffe
says Lloyd George more than any
English statesman understands the
American people, The hidden sig
nificance of the remark may be that
the new premier may hurry along
home rule for Ireland for the effect
it will have on American public SEN
timent, With Ireland free, the en-
pire and her colonies united and
ready to fight for common cause,

been making shells and spread to the
main shop. 1t undoubtedly was caused
by spontaneous combustion, as much
oil was used in the work incident to
the shell making" Mr.. Emmons said
the damage would be repaired so the
work could be resumed, possibly to-
morrow, but at any rate within two
or three days.
Fire Causes Much Excitement.
The city fire department was not
called upon, the blaze being extin-

maintained by the company.
When news of the fire spread about
the city it caused much excitement
This was increased by reports that the
blaze had been accompanied by several
explosions. Mr.. Emmons said the explo-
sions probably were caused by the ig-
milton of barrels of oil. several of which
were stored in the building.
The fire started before the workmen
had arrived and no one was injured.
