A Soldier Wanders About the
Prairie Ten Days Without
Food.
Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont, Feb. IAN inter-
esting story is told by Corporal Pruden,
of Fort Keogh, who was lost for ten
days, and was returned to camp the
early part OF this week with his ex-
tremities badly frozen and out of his
head. During his absence from camp
he had nothing to eat. His mule he
p ermltted to Craze during the days,
and at night the animal would return to
him and by the warmth of its body the
soldier was able to keep from freezing
to death. He was recovered by Fire
Wolf, a Cheyenne scout, who, with
others, had been sent to search for him.
Prudent finding he was lost, had set
tied down about five miles from Stacy's
ranch, thinking his chances of being
found would be best if he did not move
about.

The Behring Sea Dispute.

LONDON, Sept. 29.-Lord Salisbury
has instructed Sir Julian Pauncefote,
the British minister at Washington,
to consult the convenience of secre-
tary of state Blaine in reference to the
discussion of the Behring sea dispute.
Negotiations are to proceed quietly
and continuously and inquiry is to be
carefully pursued into the question of
Canadian compensation for the sci
zure of vessels belonging to Canada
In the waters in contention.
No immediate pressure, however, is
to be exercised upon the government
at Washington with regard to settling
the international question involved
and nothing like a formal demand for
a speedy conclusion of the affair is to
be allowed.
The line of action, which has been
decided upon by Lord Salisbury, is
based on his expectation that secre-
tary Blaine, who is just now hampered
by the lease of the Alaska Sealing and
Fishing company, will be more ready
to accord what England regards as a
just settlement of the dispute upon
the approaching expiration of the
company's lease. When that occurs
it is expected that the British govern
ment will push the negotiations with
a little more energy.

The Fish Eggs Were Boiled.

The fish commissioners have been
anxious to make display of salmon
eggs, in process of Matching, at the
fair, and a few days since, a water
pipe having been fixed for the pur-
pose, commissioner Reed brought
down a Mcdonald jar and few thou
sand eggs, and soon had the water
running into the jar, and the big pink
eggs moving around in great shape.
Sometime after, on going to look at
the eggs to see how they were getting
along, Mr.. Reed was astonished to
see that they were all dead. Accident
ally placing his hand on the water
pipe, he was surprised to find that it
was quite hot. Further investigation
showed that the water from the boiler
in the restaurant had been blown into
the pipe, and that the eggs in the jar
had been literally boiled. Thus were
some three or four thousand salmon
cooked at one fell swoop. Before
another batch of eggs is put in there
will be a change in the plumbing con-
nected with it.-OregOliG1l.

DECEPTIVE ADVERTISING.

w. 81. Mills addressed the Califor-
MIA Editors Convention at Sacra-
mento, on the relation of the newspa-
per to the public. He paid his re-
spects to the various advertising
schemes which are worked in every
place In the country, and in which
enough money is thrown away to build
up good papers and force the commu-
nifty onward. If there is anything
which the average merchant don't
know, said Mr.. Mills. it is how to ad-
vertise. You will see their cards
stuck up on maps and directories
whichsfew people look at, at an expense
that would keep their business before
the readers of the daily papers, for
months. The promoters of a book
got out by the Denver & Rio Grande
made $1,000 out of it, and in a few
months not copy could be found.
The First National Bank of San Fran
cisco, got out picture of its building
to be sent to its correspondents, and
for four inch card on the margin
800 was charged. A couple of hun
dred of the sheets were issued and
hung up in places where few people
will ever see them, and yet all the spa
ces doubtless were taken by merchants
who wouldn't put a line in a newspa-
per. Look out for the foreign paper
that comes into your town to get up a
special edition, and which will make
more profit out of an issue than q
country paper can earn in a year. Be
ware of the occasional sheet that gives
you an affidavit of the job printer as
to the copies printed, for most of them
are probably left in the cellar. 1t is
not copies printed, but copies circula-
ted and read that makes an advertise
ment valuable. Yet merchants rarely
consider this. The railroad company
some years ago assisted in a financial
way the issuance of 1900 copies
(printer's affidavit) of a pamphlet
showing the resources of a certain
county. Lately 1900 copies of this
pamphlet were found in an old loft
and offered to the company for about
a cent a pound. All the advertisers
who had counted on drawing business
through their cards in this pamphlet
were blissfully ignorant of the fact
that they had simply enriched a
sharper.

With the same benefit. ROBERT STEWART,

Explanatory Note-The mineral iodide of
potash, which is the basis of nearly all other
sarsaparillas, attacks the blood direct, hence
forces impurities through the skin, creating
more boils and pimples. joys Vegetable sar-
saparilla acts oppositely. Its vegetable alter
atives stimulate the various secretive organs
and thus eliminate all impurities through the
natural channels, hence dries up pimples and
skin eruptions at once. The above tsstimon-
tRl Is case IN point.

congress to protect these waterways,
for the reason that ''the competition

asks that where private individuals

cured, by state action -or otherwise:
privileges on such waterways to the
injury of commerce, such obstructions
be removed.

THERE is a secret society in Balti-

protect its members from unfortu-

club feels that he is falling in love,
he confesses to his fellow-members
and they appoint committee to in
yestigate the matter and advise him
therein. In certain sense the in
stitution is trust in hearts, but its
object is higher than that of most

unhappiness of the world to mini
mum, and has been fairly successful
in its restricted field. The sad news
comes, however, that all the members
of the organization are in love with

FINDLAY, Ohio, is cited as an illus
tration of what the incipient develop
ment of natural gas has done for the
localities that have been able to use
it. Findlay has in less than three
years grown from a population of
5000 to $4,000. and there are thirty
five factories there, against two be-
fore the gas was introduced. The
reason is found in the fact that
enough natural gas to run a glass
factory of thirty-three pots can be had
at a cost of 35 cents day. Other
towns have enjoyed similar prosperity
