KLAMATH FALLS. WEDNESDAY EVENING. AUGUSTS. 1908
wwt Misi:n wim.n.
c.nlili'Eratui have boon received In
Uncago that tho King of Sorvla de
sired to form alliances with Chicago
heiresses for hit two son Alieady
nn emissary I on bin wuy to t tils
country to choose two Amcrlran girl
for the honor.
The Idea of the King of Scrvla baa
so greatly pleased tho Ciar of Russia
that ho bat gono to far as to agree
that ho will itand godfather to the
first born to either Prince through
hla American unton.
Chicago girls wore chosen n the
pro.jHithe wires of the Itojnl Prin
ces ok lug to tho fivorable Impression
created on the Kit-whin tud Sertlan
people by the Princess Cnntaciuene,
a niece of Mrs. Potter Palmer, and
daughter of (lenernl nnd Mrs. Fred
)). (.-ant.
To (ieneral Arthur Toherep Splrl
dovlch. Preslden of the Slawiule
league of Moscow wns given the del
icate work of deciding on the two
marry. He has already left Sorvla
und Is expected to reach Chicago be
fore many weeks
The General admitted he was on
hla wny to America for the purpose
of finding wives for the two Princes,
but that while he desired to find the
girls In wealthy families, poverty
was not n bar to a union with the
royal house.
He declared tho King wished his
sons to marry Into the "blue blood
of America," and all tha: ho requir
ed of.the girls was benutv, birth and
breeding.
IIH1TI.MI COI.IMIHA FIRK.
Tho most dreadful conflagration In
tho history of Canada Is aweeplng
the Elk river vaKey In East Kooten-
ay. Kor forty miles a tremendous
bush flro hat burned everything bo
fore It. It has-held full and terrible
sway since Saturday afternoon, l-at-est
estimates are that 170 people
have met death In the flames. The
property loss It estimated at $3,000,
000 to $10,000,000. The following
places have been destroyed:
Fcrnle, with a population of 3,500,
Coal Creek, with a population of
1,500, Hosmcr, with a population of
no. The homeless will number COOO.
The fatalities are growing hourly.
In one caso at Fernle every ono In
five families perished. At least 70
persons perished there. Seventy men
In Elk river camps perished. The
Crows Nest Pans Coal company hat
11.000.000 In property at Coal Creek
which It reported destroyed. Rail
road bridges are swept away. Tho
fire Is still burning.
A territory 100 miles squaro had
been burned over. The wboln Crows
Nest Pass country la In ashct. Tho
hills on all Bides were seething mas
ses of flames and escape was almost
Impossible In any direction. Flro ap
paratus was of no avail because fan
ned by a terrific gale tho flames have
spread with lightning rapidity.
KEEPING A "DEATH WATCH."
The Kaiser's only avowed friend Is
Emperor Joseph. Kven Arch Duke
Francis Ferdinand, heir to the Aus
trian throne, favors the abandon
ment of the Oerman friendship for
Eogtlih support To prevent rurh i
coalition against la 1 tit thero Is lit t It
doubt that the Ktlser would declare
war Bgalnst one or more of his un
friendly neighbors.
Germany pines for tho West Aus
trian province with their outlet to
the Mediterranean at Trieste. Itatj
wants the terrltorv on her on front
ier, v-llh Its Italian population. Tur-
key would gladl recover lunula and .
llenegovlna, which she lost In liTS
Bervla covets a slice of Dalmulla
Houmanla would lay till in in Hit-,
kovlnu and Itussln would Mil foi
Gnlllcla. A port's t well, therefore. ,
of new Intrigues, alliances und unit- ,
plications Is sure to follow the An
trlan emperor's death.

Realizing that when Francis Jos
eph, the aged and Infirm emperor of
Austria, dies, tho political balance or
Europe Is likely to bo rudely upset,
the European nations arc today keep
ing a "death wutch" on tho emperor.
They have not gono to I ho limit of
Turkey, who had a secret service
agent shadowing the emperor at
ischl, bit summer homo Uut' what
the sultan attempted to do openly,
tho other powers are doing with sec
recy and with regard to the emper
or's feelings. The keynote to the
prestnt European situation It tho
half open, half veiled antagonism-between
England and Germany. Eng
land Is muttering every possible pow
er to maintain her predominance
and Germany It striving to obstruct
thlt policy and to gain tho position
England now holds. France, Russia
and Spain aro friendly' to England,
and it Is believed that In (be event of
a crisis, Portugal, Denmark, Sweden,
Norway, and even, Italy could be won
to the English' aide.
A general exodus of ArmenlniiH
from this country to their native
lands Is expected as the testill of the
edict of the sultan of Turkey grant
ing autonomy to Armenia and re
mitting all penalties nnd liabilities
for attempts made by Armenians In
the past to get such government nnd
the right to testify In a Moslem court
Chicago's Armenian colony Is greatl)
excited and for several das ine.tlim
have been held dlscusslnr; the advis
ability of returning to Armenia. Ik
cause of the vigor with which the
sultan pursued Armenians who had
sought autonomy, SSO.OOO rame to
the United States to escape Imprison
ment. They organized tho I lunch
klst society to obtain funds to fight
for their cause. Whether the new-
edict will mean the abandonment of
this society la problematical.
