Oregon to ltematn In Dock
Washington, July 9. Tho Navy De
partment was informed today that the
Oregon has arrived at Che Foo. She
will start for Kobe, Japan, to dock,
July 10 or 12. The cablegram is from
Captain Rodgers, of the Nashville, who
made a flying trip from his station at
Che Foo out to the scene of the ground
ing of the Oregon, 35 miles northwest of
tbe port. His dispatch reads as follows :
"Che Foo, July 9. Oregon starts for
Kobe dock, Japan, about 10th or 12th,
stopping en route, if weather is bad.
All well on board Oregon. "Rodgeks"
The dispatch conveys indirectly the
information that wire communication
j with Che Foo is open again.
A rough estimate made at the Jsavy
Department consigns the Oregon to the
dry dock about three months. The
courtesy exhibited by the Japanese
Government in allowing the Oregon to
use the dock, which is owned by the
government, is much appeciated by the
Navy Department officials here.

Lincoln. Neb., July 9. Plans for the
democratic national campaign of l'JOO
weie outlined and practically agreed
upon today at a protected conference
between the leaders of the party. The
plan includes the appointment of a
campaign committee, as agreed upon
between the representatives of the Dem
ocratic Silver Republican, and Populiet
parties at Kansas City. This commit
tee will include members of ull three
parties, and perhaps also democrats not
members of the national committee, but
who are prominent in the councils of
the party. This committee will, it is
said, have charge in a measure of the
practical working of tho campaign, and
will work for fusion on state and con
gressional tickets where over possible.
The press and executive committee,
it is expected, will, with one or two ex
tions, bo the same as hit t year. The
personnel of ull the committees was left
in the hands of Chairman Jones. The
question of national headquarters was
also left in his hands. It was stated
that Chicago would probably be select

In a, totter received recently, Lieut.
Wallace M. Craigie, Seventh United
States infantry, now stationed at Cape
Nome, Alaska, in charge of an army
substation, snys::
"Cape Nome, according to the old
timers, will be tho greatest mining
camp in the world. Nome City, as it
is now called, is right on the coast of
Behrhig sea, and extends for some
miles along the shore. Along the beach
the miners rock out gold and make
from $5 to $50 or more a day one man.
This sounds like a statement that ad
mits of doubt, but it is a fact. One man
told me himself he had worked with
three others for 14 days, and they had
rocked out just $0,000, all hard-eiirneil
gold, but they hnd it to prove the state
ment. Then up along the several
creeks -Anvil, Discovery, Snow Gulch
etc. the v ield is really enormous. The
famous claim here is known as No. 1
on l)iscoery, nmMias turned out about
$1,000,0011. A few days ago a nugget
weighing 30 ounces was found, and
about a month ago one weighing a little
over 19 ounces was taken from the
sluice boxes on the same claim. Some
men have a centrifugal pump down on
the beach below the town, nnd hau'
sluice boxes running back to the soil
called tundra by the natives, which if
filled with fine gold of a very pure
quality.
"The tiling that impressed me most
was that in less than n month after
the town started'the 'diggings' was the
circulating medium, and valued at $1C
an ounce, although no otUeial ntsa.v
had been made. Men go out with theii
rockers and pans, and come back tc
town, and eat and drink, and pay foi
it with the result of the day's diggings
There are numerous propositions t

A certain amount of freshness ia
natural and desirable in youth, but
there is a young man in social Wash
ington who is olVenshely and incura
bly fresh. One day last wee;, how
ever, he had a setback, which to most
persons would have been ample I'oi
all purpOMs. He was at a tea, and
had been presented to a young woman
from Ohio who believes in heroic
treatment of desperate cases, which
idle ver.v soon perceived his to be. In
the course of the conversation she
suggested that something might be
learned from the past,
"Oh," he said, "1 am the heir of. all
the ages in the foremost files of lime,
and I can't waste my precious mo
incuts looking back, 1 1 Kit Lot's wife."
"At least," she responded, with a
sweet Insinuation, "the result in the
ease of Lot's wife could scarcely he
possible iu you I'M."
"I don't quite iindcrslnnd," he said,
groping for her meaning,
"Don't you remember she
turned into a pillar of salt'.'"
He understood it then, for a
tier, and somehow afterward
cm ' i- a hM interest fir- !
was
won.
