PubIisners, Statement.

In view of the following and unsolicited

requires no special appeal from us to our
readers to demonstrate the worth and
work of Humphreys Homeopathic Speci.
fcs in the family:
Publishers ~Canandaigua, N. Y, Jour
mall The smallest case in an average
sized family, when intelligently used,
must save a largo bill from the regular
physician. Clinton, Wis Herald: We
find these remedies very useful and rec
ommend them to our friends. Manhat-
tan, Kas., Telephone: Have used two
of these cases of Specifics with excellent
effect and desire another. Niagara
Falls. N. Y, Courier: Our senior has
used your Specifics to such good purpose
that we desire a full line. Toms River,
n. j., Democrat: The case received from
you a year & is exhausted. Please send
another. Waupaoa, Wis Republican:
Our wife is a homeopathic physician and
desires another case. New Holland, Pa i,
Clarion: There are many families in this
vicinity using your remedies with wonder
full results. We need another case.
Council Bluffs, Ia, Herald: A case of
these Specifics is Indispensable in the
family. Send us .wo......A perusal Of the
above proves that there is no use in argu-
ing the question Of the potency OF

Tho salmon,s Feeding Grounds.

Where the sea salmon go is as much a
mystery today as it has ever been. After
leaving the coast they disappear. Stray
fish have been found in very deep water
hundreds of miles from any salmon river,
but their marine feeding grounds are still
undiscovered. In the spring they sud
denly reappear at the mouths of rivers.
While in salt water they never jump at
a fly; the moment they strike fresh they
rise freely. When going up stream they
frequently stop in pools as though to rest,
and when descending go most of the
time tail first, letting the current carry
them and keeping head up the river

The Chicago Strike.

CHICAGO, Oct. l5.-There still seems
to be much dissatisfaction IN existence
among the North Side street men and it
may be possible hat the end is not yet.
They say it was their understanding that
the new men were to be retained as lex
%tras," while all of the old men were to go
to work regularly. They now find that
the extras are to be supplied from
their own ranks.
A request has been sent to the master
workman of the district to call a meeting
which is to consider the matter at mid
night tonight.
This morning one Of the new men was
attacked by four old employees and in self
defense drew a revolver and fred several
shots at his assailants, wounding one of
them named Burlev in the foot.
The general meeting of the North Side
men assembled some time after midnight
tonight to discuss the course to pursue to
meet the unexpected construction being
made by the company. Up to 1:30 a. m.
no conclusion had been reached.

New Gold Fields.

OTTAWA, Ont, Oct. l5.-R. j. Nc
Cornell, of the geological survey office,
has just returned from a geological explo-
ration of the Yonkon and Mackenzie riv-
ers. The Yonkon is described as a river
of immense size and volume, 2, 300 miles
long and navigable for fully 1000 miles.
1t runs through about 200 miles of gold
range, and precious metal may easily be
seen by the naked eye in the lodges of
rock that abound On either bank, but SO
far all mining for gold is done in placers,
Miners are washing out at the bars on
the river from $50 to $25 per day, but
this can be carried on for only about two
months in the year, owing first to the
high water, and secondly to the frost,
which comes early and stops all opera
tons. Precious metals are abundant and
can be met with in many districts, espe-
cially in the rougher country, and on
nearly all the rivers which he traversed.
