LONDON, April 23—Tin* British government has stopped
all traffic between England and Holland. No reason has
been given for the embargo, and the only possible cause for
the action of the government is either to prevent spies from
coming into England', or else it means that the seas are be
ing cleared for a big naval action.

treasure supposed to have been hid

shafts and dumps dug long before

he a railroad terminal. He returned
day before yesterday from that quar
ter. and at the time the search was
on. There aro two stories about
the gold. One is that It was hidden
by convicts, but for the sake of lo
cal color convicts are always dragged
Into stories of Russia. It Is said
that some of the natives have nug
gets In their possession from the hid
den bunch, but they keep It quiet not

UMBRELLAS NOW THE
8TYLE ON THE TRAIL
The old day* are gone forever from
Alaska. It has often been prophested
that the people coming on the rail
road stampede would be gentlefolks
of the sweetest culture, altogether
more delicately nurtured than the
Swlftwater Bills and Onehorse Ikes
of those beastly vulgar pioneer days.
Yesterday, as A Erlcson, the game
warden, came In over the trail he met
many "mushers,” bless the mark, hit
ting It out for the wilderness And
do you know what they carried over
their heads? Umbrellas!* This fact
Is on a par with the Incident in Mark
Twain's “Court of King Arthur" when
the king was about to be hanged and
a lot of knights appeared suddenly
racing on bicycles to the rescue. But
King Arthur must have blessed those
bicycles aBd umbrellas aint bo bad
after all.—Seward Gateway.
