Lcndon, Aug. 4.���Jack lleaton Arm-1 Strong, whose brother. Captain lleaton | ; Armstrong, is private secretary to the ! king of Albania, has just returned to ! London after a stay of several weeks ' in Albania, during which he accom- | panied the loyalist force to l'renk , Bib Doda on its march from Alessio j towards Durazzo. Mr. Armstrong, a debonair, monocled young Englishman, commanded the "I'renk's" artillery, consisting of one Austrian mountain gun. The "l'renk," who is a .Mirdite chief, and, according to Mr. Armstrong, a most polished gentleman, set out from Alessio at the head Of about one thousand of his own ! tribe and an equal number of Malis- i sorl to go to the relief of the king : beseiged in his capital. The first oh-1 jective was the rebel stronghold of I llshml, where a few shells from the J mountain gun soon cleared the rebels] | out of the town. "It was curious," said Mr. Aim-! strong, "how the gun was a sort of '��� fetish to the Albanians. The rebels would never stand shell fire, while pur own men would run to me for the gun on the slightest excuse. M> jeyegiass was an object of great In- ( teres! to them. They believed it was , essential to the working of the gun, and I did nol dispel the illusion, bul I kept the glass In my eye whenever an Albanian was ln Bight.

Durazzo Quite Secure. "I then determined to get the gun Into Durazzo by sea, if possible, i sent out a boat, which reported thai ! there were no signs of the enemy, and then set out myself in the leading ��� boat with the gun, and two other boats following with the ammunition. At the narrowest part of the channel the beat ran aground, and the Albanian arsmi u, assuring me they had come ' '/lit to fight and nol to work, stopped rowing. In the i nd I had to get out up t( my armpits In water and pull our bout off the nhoi i_ Ith a rope, fl nally we got to Schllnza, and thenci 5 n sailing ship to Durazzo.

London, Aug. 4.���The newspaper situation is au extraordinary one. Everybody feels and knows that events of the most momentous nature ai> taking place on the Russo-German frontier, in the Baltic sea, in Servia, on the Franco-German frontier and at dozens of other important points, but the governments concerned have pui so complete an embargo on news that nothing whatever is being received in London from the scores of war correspondents which have been sent out, nor trom the regular correspondents Of the news organization of papers throughout the war scene. Official News Censored. Even official news is being rigidly censored and every government concerned is forbidding the transmission of news likely to afford the slightest assistance to a hostile power. In con- sequence the London papers present a curious appearance, being denuded of everything except occasional short dispatches directly concerning tiie war and even these contain but few facts and cannot be accepted as au- '��� then tic, Telephonic communication with the continent has completely stopped and all the telegrams from the continent are being closely scrutinized by official censors before being dispatched and again before delivery, very few being permitted to pass in any form whatever. Newspapers Patriotic. All domestic news concerning military and naval movements also has to be submitted to censorship before being published and the newspapers are unanimous in their patriotic response to the appeal of the governments to refrain from the- publication of any news calculated to be of use to possible enemieB of the country. Furthermore, all out going cables, no matter what their destination, are being severely censored and badly delayed in consequence. All this means that the vast complicated machinery of news transmission in Europe is utterly crippled for the time being and it will be weeks, even' months, before the world secures reliable and accurate information regarding the tragedies now being enacted in the vast theatre of war.

Such was not j the case but it gave the Chinese in the city the first intimation that trans- shipment of drafts or currency had j been stopped between Hritish Colum- bia and China. Due to the fluctuating money market thai exists in the English seaport of the celestial empire, local Chinese frequently wait their chance until exchange is low and then take advantage of this by shipping money home. Prom now until further orders this mode of procedure has been stopped, neither the banks nor the steamship companies caring to take such risks. Yesterday morning many of the local banks received telegrams from their headquarters to the effect that only notes must be given out over the counter for the time being. This order is merely a precautionary meas-j ure and will not prohibit the small i tnorpe, investor from securing gold or silver.

The Monitor says: Nobody knows in the least what is happening inside the foreign offices. I here is guesswork enough, much of it sufficiently authoritative in tone to have come direct from the European cudnceaenes, but this only deceives ' ahe ignorant. It is said that Austria acted without consulting Berlin, but that is inconceivable.

The ciistomB-uninn between Aus-j tria anil Hungary has rendered these! countries a. commercial unit; but.1 roughly speaking. Hungary is the agricultural and pastoral country, while Austria is the industrial. Hungary is also the richest country in Europe in ! mineral deposits, the range of which is singularly wide. "Austria is, after Switzerland, the | most mountainous region in Europe, more than four-fifths of her vast ter-: ritory being over 600 feet above sea level.

Incidents in Somaliland Said to Have Resulted in Serious Situation There. Capetown, South Africa, Aug. 4. - A recent issue of the East African Standard states that the latest ad- vires report a disquieting situation in British East Africa, due, In a largo measure, to recent incidents in Somaliland. Recently, the Standard says, the coasting steamers in Northeast Africa have been carrying to Momba��sa large numbers of refugees from Berber;!, members of tribes in the interior of Somaliland who have established friendly relations with the British administration, and whom the authorities have been powerless to protect against the depredations of the Mul- la... and who have been pushed out from the interior to the coast. From Moinhassn they scatter themselves along the Uganda railway, and, not being agriculturists, many of them engage in business as native traders. The prohlem of the native trader in East Africa Is already one which causes some concern to the administration, and the large influx of Somali* is adding to the difficulties of the | situation very considerably More- i over, the Standard adds, as may be imagined, the presence of these refit- ��� gees, who have found the British go.

The last dry ! season was the riist one during which | Gatun and Miraflo'res lakes were approximately at the operating level, j thus exposing their maximum service to the influence of evaporation. The records for the season are Indicative ot what may be expected in the com- t iiiL- years of canal operation. Works I The run-off from the watershed of (.atun lake during the dry season. signed I jar)Uary to April, inclusive, amounted um of to 16,963,000,000 cubic feet. This is 81 ���efund- per cent, of the normal dry season, run-off as determined by the average of 25 years of record. The lake was maintained at approximately normal elevation throughout the season. The total wastage of water through the spillway amounted to 4,864,000,000 cu bu* feet. The amount consumed by lockages to and from the Atlantic entrance was 266,000,000 cubic feet, and the amount of lockages, filling tests and pumping to and from Miraflores lake was 681,000,000 cubic feet In addition 137,000,000 cubic feet were passed through the tunnel at Que- brancba divide for supply to Brazos brook reservoir. It is estimated that if none of the water had been allowed to pass out of the lake, except by evaporation, the run-off was sufficient to have raised the surface of the lake to 86.18 feet : above sea level. The record ol the ; season of 1912, in which the run-off ��� from Oatun lake watershed was the smallest observed during the past 22 J years, demonstrates its capacity for | all the traffic that ran be brought h the canal. Assuming that Oatun lake was at elevation plus _7, at tin beginning of the tlrj season, on December 1, and thai the hydro-electric plant at the Oatun spillway was in continuous operation, antl thai is lockages a day were being mnde, the elevation of the lake would be reduced lo Its lowest point, plus 79 ... on May j 7. at the ciose of the dr> season, af- | ter which II would contlnuousl. rise, rt itii tiie water at plus 7h in Gatun lake there would be 39 feet ol water In Culebra cut, which would be ample for navigation riie surface of Gatun lake Is to be, at the end ol the rainy season, al s7 I feet above M-a level, making the minimum channel depth In the lake and i cut 17 feet As mn Igatlon can be i carried on with about 39 feet ol water, there will be stored, as B dry season surplus, mi r seven feel of water.

Captain Duniont of the Rochambeau displayed copies of two wireless messages intercepted by his operators on Sunday. In Secret Code. Both messages were in a secret code, all except the initial call and the signature. Both were addressed to "Karlsruhe, New York," via the station at Savville, L.

The Rochambeau also intercepted fragments of other messages from the Sayville station, also in code, and ad- dressed -Dresden." One of these enclosed the words "Relayed irom Berlin." Captain Dumont said that both messages from "Dresden" came so faintly to the Rochambea uthat the opera-! tors could scarcely distinguish them. By the relative capacity of the Rochambeau's apparatus and the probable sending radius of the Dresden, he estimated that the German cruiser was about 200 miles away.

I By D. Maxwell Merry About two million families in Canada use everyday, at least, one domestic product or another, which is advertised. That is to say, they wash with a certain soap, drink a certain tea, eat a certain breakfast food, take a certain medicine or go to bed on a certain mattress, when they would have used a different soap, tea, food, medicine or mattress, if the particular kind which, in fact, they do use, had never- been advertised. But not one of these two million families habitually use any one of these or of the hundreds of other advertised articles because it was advertised. The reason is quite different. These advertised articles are used because the users like them; if a woman once tastes a tea that she does not like, no amount of advertising will make her drink it again. If a woman washes her face with a soap that injures her complexion, advertising will never induce her to change her opinion in regard to that particular soap. You can introduce your goods by advertising that it is the quality of the goods themselves that keeps the door open to them. Thus we arrive at a bed rock. It is the merit of the goods advertised which sells the goods. Clever advertising will self good merchandise, but no advertising will sell twice to the same person merchandise that is not, or is not believed by that person to be, worth the money- Here we come to a curious mistake held by-people whose own practice should show them their error. I mean the common idea that advertising will sell everything���that it is noisy advertising and not merit that sells the goods. As I have frequently stated in these articles, the simple explanation of an article and the special features that are likely to appeal to the public is the best advertising that can be used. Big words and resounding phrases may look good to the advertiser, but they don't sell goods. The shortest words and the shortest sentences tell the tale of any product better than the most academic story that could ever be written.
