Officers on the steamer Evans state that the gas schooner White Bear is seven days overdue at Nome and that there is much anxiety among the peo- pie of that place as to her safety. as 1t is feared she is caught in the ice in the recent heavy storm and carried out to sea. Only two A. s. C. boats were in port at the time and one of quested that the other go to the res cue, and offered to charter the tug Genevieve. which was owned by the company. The request was refused. whereupon the people held mass meeting and seized the vessel and placing it in command of the local coast guard started out on the work of rescue. Up to the time the Evans came into the narrows nothing had been heard of the rescue party.

AGAIN
 RAID ENGLAND
Eight Killed and Twenty -One are In- jured by Bombs from German
 AirplaneS Last Night.

LONDON, Nov. 2-The Germans again raided the English coast last night, dropping a number of bombs and killing eight persons and injuring twenty one. The report of the raid given out by the war office is very meagre. merely giving the number of killed and wounded, but making no mention of the damage done. The clamor for immediate retaliation against German cities by the British airmen is growing vehement, and 1t is anticipated that the government will take steps in this direction in the near future.

on one good crop OF alfalfa of about
three tons to the acre, no matter what
kind Of season it may be, and then
excellent pasture for stock through the

Ond growth, but his experience has

crop In a season.
