Climbing Mountains.
Is a fascinating and invigor
ating pastime. It developes not
the body only, but the mind. The
Alpine Peaks of Switzerland have
their counterpart in our ownfrom
country, in the Sierras, the Cas
cades, and parts of the Rockies.
The greatest glacial peak of
the United States is Mt. Ranier
in Washington, more than 15,500
feet high. This magnificent
mountain has 15 or more giant
glaciers creeping down its sides
and discharging their glacial de
tritus into the Columbia river or
Puget Sound.
A climb to the summit of this
is a mountaineering feat worthy
of any mountaineer. For 25centf
Chas. S. Fee, Gen'l Passenger
Agent of the Northern Pacific
railway, St. Paul, Minn.will
send to any address an illustarted
booklet, called "Climbing Mt. Ra
nier':
describing a climb over gla-
ciers to the top of the moun
tain.

LUNATIC OF THE "JACK THE RIP-
PER" TYPE AT WORK IN
DETROIT.
HIS MUTILATED REMAINS FOUND
WHERE MURDERER HAD HID-
DEN THEM.
MANY SIMILAR CRIMES IN CITY
POLICE ARE WORKING ON THE
THEORY THAT A MANIAC IS
RESPONSIBLE.
Detroit, Mich., Aug. 20.Murdered
by a maniacal "Jack the Ripper"
doubtless was the late of Alphonse
Wilmes, a four-year-old boy whose mu
tilated body yesterday was found in
the rear of the Michigan stove works,
wedged between two molding boxes.
The hands were tied behind with wire
and a handkerchief had been stuffed
down the boy's throat. The body was
partly stripped of clothing. The abdo
men was ripped open and the left
wrist was nearly severed. The thighs
also had long cuts in therm Alphonse
had been missing from his home since
Monday noon.
The police are satisfied that the
boy was murdered by a maniac, and
they are working along these lines.
The officers are inclined to believe
that the child was killed in some
house, and that afterward the mur
derer carried the body in a sack or a
wagon to the spot where it was found
yesterday.
Several Crimes Against Children.
There have been several other
crimes against children in tue city re
cently, and many persons believe that
a maniac is responsible.
It is evident that murder was not
committed near where the body was
found, for, although there is scarcely
a drop of blood left in the body, there
practically was no blood on the boards
where he was found.
A search for bloodstains to and
the scene was inaugurated with
out result. Perhaps the strangest
phase of the mystery is that there
were only a few small stains on the
body and clothing of the boy, despite
the horrible character of his wounds.
It looks as though the murderer, after
committing the deed, washed the
blood from the body and then carried
it to the lot -where it was found.
Similar Case in Illinois.
Rockford, 111., Aug. 20.The murder
of the Detroit boy is identical in cir
cumstances -with the murder of Dick
Tibbitts, a seven-year-old newsboy,
here last month. The details cor
respond so closely that the local au
thorities believe the murderer wa's
the same man, a lunatic of the "Jack
the Ripper" type, and they are now in
communication with the Detroit police
department on the subject.

Canadian Pacific Liner Collides With

Empress saved 170 of the crew of the
cruiser. The c :!:.in '.'.o [I..a^j

ARRIVAL OF RUSSIAN FLEET OFF

A SCARE.
TO SUPPORT DEMANDS MADE I
REGARDING MURDER OF RUS-
SIAN CONSUL.
AWflil SLAUGHTER GOES ON
MUSSULMANS AND CHRISTIANS
ARE BEING KILLED BY THE
HUNDREDS.
Constantinople, Aug. 20.The Rus
sian squadron of warships which loft
Sebastapol Monday, yesterday arrived
off the Turkish coast to support the
demands made on Turkey by Russia in
connestion with the assassination Aug.
7 of M. Rostkovski, the Russian consul
at Monastlr.
The fact that Russia is to make a
naval demonstration in Turkish waters
was kept a profound secret here, the
public being entirely ignorant of the
Russian movement, and the arrival of
the fleet created almost a panic.
The notification received here of the
sailing of the squadron was an unwel
come surprise to the Turkish govern
ment, which has pretended to believe
that the Rostkovski Incident had been
closed with the punishment of the
guilty parties.
Ready for Any Emergency.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 20. Russia's
aggressive diplomatic attitude toward
Turkey is evidently Intended to notify
the rest of Europe that the internal
and external preoccupations of the
czar's government must not he taken
to indicate that it is unprepared to as
sume an important part in any crisis
that may issue from the Macedonian
trouble.
Mussulmans Massacred.
Constantinople, Aug. 20.The most
recent advices received here from
Monastir were forwarded Sunday
night and announced that the fighting
between the insurgents and Turkish
troops in the vicinity of Krusbevo con
tinued and that many refugees from
neighboring villages had congregated
at Monastir. Several villages inhab
ited by Greeks, It was added} had been
$et on Are by the insurgents.
According to advices received at
one of the foreign embassies at Con
stantinople, no less than 800 Mussul
mans have been massacred through
out the district of Monastir by insur
gents, whose movements continue to
gain ground.
Entire Population Wiped Out.
Sofia, Aug. 20. Reports received
here from Constantinople and believed
to be authentic, confirm the previous
statements to the effect that when the
Turks recaptured Krushevo they
slaughtered the entire Christian popu
lation without exception, and it is
pointed out that among those killed
were the employes of the government
tobacco establishments, which were
under European control, as the pro
ceeds from these establishments were
assigned to the service of the Turkish
debt.
A fierce battle is reported to have
occurred in the neighborhood of Mon
astir. Three Turkish battalions at
tacked 1,000 insurgents, and, after the
fight had
Had Raged for Six Hours,
the Turks were repulsed with a loss
of 210 men killed or wounded. The in
surgent 'oss is not given.
A reign of terror is reported at
Uskab, where the Christian inhabi
tants are afraid to leave their houses.
The vali has issued the strictest orders
to the Mussulman population to re
main quiet and not molest Christian
neighbors but the Mussulmans-, meet
ing in masques, have resolved at a
given signal to massacre the whole
Christian population immediately the
first insurgent band appears near
uskiib or any other pretext. The Chris
tians are terrorized.
