THE latest social sensation in
high life at Gotham is the approach
ing marriage of George Vanderbilt,
the richest young bachelor in Amer
lea, to Mrs. Wagner, young and
attractive widow with two children.
There is a touch of romance con-
nected with the affair that reads
like q story in sensational novel.
Several years ago Mr.. Vanderbilt
met Mrs. Wagner at Monterey, Cal,
were she and her invalid husband
were staying for the benefit of the
latter's health. Untiring in her de-
votion to her sick husband, think
ing only of adding comfort to his
waning days, the wife attracted the
admiration of all who saw her.
Among those to whom her tender
ness especially appealed was George
Vanderbilt. Afterwards in her be-
reavement, he recalled all her affec-
ton and tender care of her departed
husband, and subsequently when
the acquaintance was renewed, the
widow proved to be far more charm
ing than the wife, and as the story
goes, coincidence and admiration
ripened into love, with the result
that the merry wedding bells will
ring out soon after Easter.

would have tendency to create a

region of bis royal spinal column.

He Hath Said It.


The President-elect thinks the
Mckinley law will be repealed by
his party. He also acknowledges
that he favors the repeal of the
Sherman bill relative to the pur-
chase of silver. The following dia-
logue occurred between Mr.. Cleve-
land and reporter at the Syracuse
station, the day Of ex-President
Hayes funeral:
"Do you believe a repeal of the
Sherman bill will be passed."
81 hope So"
''Do you oppose free coinage?'
II have nothing to say on that
question"
"Have you anything to offer the
public on the tariff? Will the Nc
Kinley tariff law be repealed?"
II would like to know what else
we are in power for"
That is volumes in a nut shell.

ing on to their claims and expressed
surprise that so many men should
be coming in there. Around their
camp were but few men, and while
many were daily arriving as many
were going away, so as to leave
only few there during any of the
days. Men came in with heavily
loaded teams expecting to find a
good sale for all kinds of supplies,
while the demand vas SO limited
that they could not sell, and with
fagged-out animals they would un-
load the goods, piling them on the
ground and leaving them"
Correspondent Goodwin says on
his return trip, "At Pleasant Creek
we arrived just in time to meet: the
first of the tide of disguised pill
grims returning from Dandy Cross
ing and Henry mountains. A num-
Der of these were miners known by
members of the party and whose
word can be fully relied upon. They
reported having talked with friends
who had been at the San Juan
placers, and had reached Dandy
Crossing on their way out. They
had gone in from. Colorado points,
and being so much disappointed,
decided to 60 to the Colorado river
placers and Henry mountains in
stead Of retIrIins the way they had
gone in. They reported that there
was nothing at San Juan to justify
people going there, and fully cor
roborated the information given by
Mr.. Gardner and his party. Re-
garding the Colorado river placers,
they found them not only richer in
gold than those in the San Juan,
but the gold is not so fine and can
be easier saved, with the exception
that machinery will be required to
raise water, hence the placers must
become the property of companies
to make them profitable. All agree
in the statement that the Henry
mountains contain large deposits
of minerals, that the gulches are
good placer ground, but water is
scarce. .
Con the quartz lodes but little is
being done This winter, the Bromide
people simply running tunnel in
which two men on a shift is all that
are employed, making only four
miners at work. Miners who had
gone there to get employment
found the situation as above stated
and were compiled to walk out.
"They were on the San Juan at
the camp where the reported slaugh.
ter of men was said to have taken
place, just after the time the story
was published, and heard nothing
of it and did not see any dead men
or signs of a sanguinary battle.
ave met all the others who
started from Salina or had come
upon the route via the intersectine
roads, and a careful tally shows
that we met 1870 men, cighty-eight
two and four-horse teams, which,
| with extra animals for packs and
riding, made total OF 283 animals
We learned of five saloon outfits
wagon loads of flour, groceries and
other camp supplies, all the teams
being we'll loaded. There must
have been 30 or 40 tons of goods
on the road, the owners of which
expect to find ready sale for them
at big prices.

ready to- start, and they will mostly

NO BLANKS IN THIS CONTEST.

This Is competition of rather an unusual
nature. 1t is common to offer prizes for the
best story, or picture. or architectural plan. all
the competitors risking the loss of their labor
and the successful one merely selling his for
the amount of the prize. But the Press Claims
Company's offer is something entirely differ.
ent. Each person is asked merely TO help him
self, and the one who helps himself to the best
advantage is to be rewarded for doing it, The
prize is only a stimulus to do something that
would be well worth doing without 1t. The
architect whose competitive plan for a club
house on a certain corner is not accepted has
spent his labor on something Of very little use
to him. But the person who patents simple
and useful device in the Press Claims Compa-
nys competition. need not worry II he fail to
secure the prize. He has a substantial result
to show for his work-one that will command
Its value in the market at any time.
The plain man who uses any articles In his
daily work ought to know better how TO i'm
prove 1t than the mechanical expert who stud
les 1t only from the theoretical point of view.
Get rid of the idea that an improvement can
be too simple to be worth patenting. The
simpler the better. The person who best sue
ceeds in combining simplicity and popularity,
will get the Press Claims Company's twenty
Ave hundred dollars.
The responsibility of the company may be
judged from the fact that its stock is held by
about three hundred of the leading newspa.

THE LITTLE THINGS The MOST
VALUABLE.

Comparatively few people regard themselves
as inventors, but almost everybody has been
struck, at one time or another, with ideas that
seemed calculated to reduce some of the little
frictions of life. Usually such ideas are dis.
missed without further thought.
why don't the railroad companies make its
car windows so that they can be slid up and
down without breaking the passengers backs?"
exclaims traveller. IF were running the
road would make them in such way"
What was the man who made this sucepan
thinking Off" grumbles the cook. He never
had to work over the stove, or he would have
known how 1t ought to have been fixed"
Hang such a collar buttonl'' growls the man
who Is late for breakfast IF I were in the
business I'd make buttons that wouldn't slip
out. or break off, or gouge out the back Of my
neck"
And then the various sufferers forget about
their grievances and begin to think of some
thing else. If they would sit down at the next
convenient opportunity. put their ideas about
car windows. saucepans. and collar buttons in
to practical shape, and then apply for patents.
they might find themselves as independently
wealthy as the man who invented the iron UNI
brella ring, or the one who patented the fifteen
puzzle.
