y 1 THE EVENING GAZETTE BAGK FROM . ALASKA. The Return of a Steamer \Vit-h Thirty Discouraged Prospectors. Seattle, Wash. Sept. 18.—-The steamer Farrallton has arrived from Skagguay and Dyea with 30 passengers who have given up the .attempt to reach the Yu— kon goldfields this winter. C.‘ F. Shaw, representing an English syndicate, ac- companied by a. party of seven, took passage on the Farrallton from Fort Wrangel and all are at Seattle. Shaw has been prospecting in the divide be- tween Cass‘ier and the headwaters of the Yukon emptying into Teslin lake. He reports the existence of large quartz ledges of the same grade as the Treadwell, «but :they cannot be worked with profit‘on account of inability to get machinery. Mr. Shaw says that the difficulties would be overcome by the construction of the Cassier and Teslin lake road, which is now being surveyed by the Canadian government. Mr. Shaw intends sending, in an outfit of 20 men ‘via Wrangel, the Stickeen river and 'Teslin lake next spring to prospect the more remote districts oi the headwaters *of the Yukon, immedi- ately adjacent to the old Cassier gold diggings. The placers on this divide have undoubtedly, derived their gold from quartz reefs in the immediate vi- cinity, as Shaw ‘had in his possession a quantity of placer gold which is quite unworn and full of quartz. The pursei of the Farrailton says there is a scarcity of boats‘ at Lake Benntee and that they bring upward of $300 each. None of the returning miners had .‘heard of the reported lynching of al- leged thieves on the Skagguay trail by vigilantes. Victoria, B~ 0., Sept. 18.——Two mem- bers of the mounted police arrived here to learn how to use the maxim guns at the fortification. They will command the. guns which have been sent‘ to the Klondike. Unhealthy Conditions In Dawson. San Francisco, Sept. 18.—-John Sibley Webb, attorney at Washington, D. C., for the Alaska Commercial company, has returned from a visit to Dawson .and the Klondike mining district, made for the sole purpose of informing him- self of the conditions of living there and in Alaska generally, in order to be posted when matters affecting Alaska are discussed in congress, especially as to the feasibility of postal arrange- ments, schools, etc. - “I have been all around the coast route and up to Dawson,” he said. ”1 have visited the mining camps of B0— nanza creek and some of those on El DOradO creek. Dawson is low and flat, and even in the height of summer the ground is frozen half a foot below the surface and ice is encountered beneath the muck. The development of the creeks was followed by the washing down into .the river Klondike and thence into the Yukon above Dawson of large quantities of filth and refuse. ”Passing by the very doors of the in- habitants of Dawson it is no wonder ~that there should be sickness and death. 'In «the little cemetery there there lay no less than 20 victims of typhoid fever, and now the number has no doubt been increased considerably. The drinking water at Dawson is very bad, and this adds to the sickness.” _ Damages For UrbanaLynching. Cleveland, Sept. 18.—-An administrator was appointed at Urbana for the estate of Clark Mitchell, the negro who was lynched this summer. It is understood that the administrator will bring suit to recover $5,000 damages under a law - passed by ,the Ohio legislature. The law gives this sum to the next of kin of a .person lynched. The amount is to be paid from the county treasury, and county commissioners are prohibited from compromising any claim fanless than the'full amount. Gas Competition at Chicago. Chicago, Sept. 18.—The Universal Gas company having failed to come to a satisfactory conclusion with the People’s Gas, Light and Coke company, the newly ’formed Chicago trust has determined to extend its mains into the territory of the Gas, Light and Coke company and become its active competitor. The Uni. Vérsal company will increase its capital from $1,500,000 to $5,000,000, and will sell gas at 90 cents per 1,000. White Slave Going Home. San Francisco, Sept. 18.——Emma Da— vis, the little English girl who was res- cued fromslavery at Maderia by the California Society For the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, is on her way home.‘ She will be in charge of the train agent until she reaches Chicago, where representatives of the Y.

Montgomery, Ala; Sept. 18.—A dis- patch from Dale county says that the residents of the piny woods district six miles above (Ozark are exercised over the mysterious actions of a stout, dark complexioned stranger, about 40 years old, who made :his appearance at that place two weeks ago. He has been living in the woods ever since and car- ries two revolvers and a rifle. Yester— day he ventured out .to the road, and when asked what he was doing and who he was replied: "‘None of your business. I’m from the east." The stranger is well dressed and ex- hibits plenty of money. Last night he began to fire his revolver at random in the road, and one of the shots struck Alex Fabel, a negro, in the chest. An attempt to capture him was made to- day by the sheriff, but the mysterious man got the drop on the sheriff and his depmy and made them return to Ozark. The man has no tent, but sleeps on the bare ground and cooks what game he can find. It is said that the man is a yellow fever refugee who has become crazed by fright on account of the strict quarantine. He has a satchel with him marked R. K. F. THE LUBTGrBRT TRIAL. Judge Vincent Objects to Putting His Cli- ent Upon the Stand. Chicago, Sept. 18.—When the trial of Adolph L. Luetgert opened today the cross examination of Professor Dorsey was resumed. He was questioned as to the comparative nature of the sesamoid and femur bones of a calf, of a sheep and a human being. His answers were technical and admit, but of a character that supported his original identification and testimony with refer- ence to the bones in evidence. There is said to be a difference be- tween Luetgert’s counsel with reference to the defendant taking the stand in his own behalf. Attorney Vincent is not in- clined to permit Luetgert to do so. At- torney Phalen believes the sausage maker should tell his story to the jurY. Luetgert himself is quite determined to go upon the witness stand. He not only desires to tell his story, but he also wants to address the jury. In all likeli- hood he will testify. 'State’s Attorney Deneen hopes to rest his case shortly. “I have only two more witnesses,” Said the state’s attorney. "They are Frank Bialk and Frank Odo- rofsky. By them I shall ShOW the motive for the crime—namely, Luetgert’s in- fatuation for Mary Simmering.” Postmaster-s Appointed.

The Morgan & Wright single-tube quick-repair tire must be regarded as a distinct improvement in bicycle tire construction. It has the following ad- vantages: While punctures in it can be re paired with plugs, or semi-liquid in- jections, as well as in“ any other single-tube tire, it can be permanent!) repaired by using the quick-repair strip inside the tire. See cut No. 1. / V7 By- injecting M. & W. quick-repel: cement through the puncture, an: then pressing down on the tire with the thumb. as in cut‘No. 2, the repair No.3. No.2. strip inside’ 1s picked up by the cement, thus closing the puncture, as in cut No. 3. The Morgan & Wright single-tube quick-repair tire is guaranteed not porous. This is on account of the way in which it is made. Nearly every rider has heard of tires that “leak like a. sieve.” Many tires rot, because water gets into the fabric between the two layers of rubber. The Morgan & Wright fabric' 15 proof against moisture. Everybody knows how comfortable Morgan & Wright tires are, and yet how seldom they puncture. This is due to the fabric. Ask any bicycle dealer whether other ‘sites last as long as Morgan & Wright tires. Ask, also, what the Morgan & Wright tires are repaired free of charge, at the factory ' in Chicago or at any of the Morgan & Wright free repair shops, located in the principal cities. N. B. -—When you have a puncture, get right off. Riding a tire flat, when - .it has a tack or nail in it, may: ' iamage it considerably. kl Saving Lives. Doctors declare that cancerous growths cannot be cured. Surgeons say they can cut them out, but that it only postpones the in- I, evitable. The old . 42’,“ trouble comes . l I; _ back. The poison \ if“ is in' the blood. ’I l 3. \ TF- I ii You can’t cure it from the out- side. Make the blood pure and rich, then the disease can’t thrive. That is exactly what Dr. David Kennedy’s Payorite Remedy is good for. Rev. 1. W. Hill, pastor of the M. E. Church at West Almond, N.Y.,some years ago suffered with a cancer of long standing On the lip and concluded to have it removed. About three weeks before the operation he. purchased Dr. David Kennedy’s Favor- ite Remedy, and continued taking it for some time after the cancer was removed. Ten long years have passed since then, and no trace of the ugly thing has returned. This wonderful medicine acts as a nerve and blood food. It makes permanent cures of Nervous Debility, Sleeplessness, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism and all Women’s Weaknesses. It restores the disordered liver to a. healthy condition and cures constipation. ‘1 a bottle at drugaists’. 9.0% That you can save money by buying youi Meats and Fish at F. W. SMlTH’S 55 Main Street.
