SEATTLE, July 2—Two steamships ar- rived from Nome ‘to-day and a third one will arrive before morning. The first to reach here was the steamer St. Paul of the Northern _ommercial Company, op- erated this seuson under charter by the Alaska Steamship Company. The St. Paul was soon followed by the James Dollar. The steamer Roanoke, the treas- ure ship of the North American Trading and Transportation Company, is due to- night. The St. Pau! brought fifty-four passen- gers and a quarter of a million dollars in ireasure from Nome. Of the treasure $4179 was destined for Seattle and $206,- 202 for S8an Francisco. The St. Paul sailed trom Nome on June At that time there were in port at Nome the steamers Indiana, Conemaugh, Roanoke and Elihu Thomson and the United States steamship Thetis. The steamer Nome City sailed on the evening of the 22d of June and should arrive in Seatlle soon. —_————— LONDON, July 2.—The first foreigners to join the ‘‘passlve resistance” movement against the educational act are two American taxpayers living at Wimbledon, the Rev. R. W. Farquhar, formerly pastor of Portland, Or., and E. H. Gaston, who at one time lived in Chicago. They have both refused to pay the education rate and consequently their house- hold goods will be seized and eold at auction to satisfy claims for a few shillings, L e e e e e o e e e o) of some of the faculty were lowered.

Then it found that the axle was within the smallest fraction of an inch of being se¥ered.

Keene's mishap caused the greatest re- gret, next to Jarrott's accident,.of any incident of the day. Amid the representative crowd of Hng- lish and Irish well known men were the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, Field Marshal Lord Roberts and the Earl of Mayo. C.

HEIDELBERG, Transvaal, july 2.—A | meeting of burghers for the purpose of | discussing important public matters was | held to-day and adopted resolutions re- gretting the proposed introduction of Asi- atic labor and asking the Govarnment to | not place the $325,000,000 war debt on the | country before representative institutions | had beea granted. General Botha made a | speech, in which he said that the Dutch did not wish to obstruct but to assist the | Government. The land, however, be- | longed to the Afrikanders, and theirs it must remain. The Boers would be ready to work for the British when the am- | nesty that Lord Kitchener had promised was granted, and not until then. He had reason to believe that this amnesty would be granted within a fortnight and the Boers must preserve their nationality. | Two thousand burghers were at the meeting. The moderate Boers are said to disapprove of to-day’s assemblage, which | they regard as the initiation of a highly dangerous movement. —_———————— Carpenter Killed by a Fall. A victim of heart failure, Stanford Hil- ton, a carpenter, 74 years of age, was in- stantly killed yesterday shortly before noon by falling off the roof of a one- story frame building in the rear of 1074 Dolores street. He was engaged in shingling ‘the rocf for his son-in-law, C. ¥. Stone, when he was observed to roll down the incline, falling to the ground, | a distance of twenty feet, and striking on his face. The unfortunate man had been under treatment for years for heart fail- ure and it is believed he became affected by the heat and swooned.
