WOMEN N IA

but They May BE snowbound.
Several days ago city man, in gray
corduroy suit, and two ladies passed over
the lake on the way to Jocks lake, where
q good, warm camp had been provided.
It was so cold at the time that even old
Ben Jones, who has dragged lumber
when the thermometer has indicated
thirty below zero, was none too warm
near the stove in Bob Boyle's barroom.
The guides, who are the only human
beings around just now, looked at the
stranger in wonder. Jones, who has a
frank, outspoken way, wanted to know
what brought the dudish stranger and
his fair companions into the woods in
this unpleasant weather.
"Oh, don't mind the cold" the stran-
ger said indifferently, land the ladies
have been camping before. They thought
it would be jolly fun to come up and
hunt foxes. ! guess well manage to
keep warm enough in our camp. We've
got plenty of warm clothes, big blankets
and good stove, and besides the camp
is well shinked."
"Humphr' exclaimed Jones, II guess
you'll git all the fun ye want before
we've hunted many foxes. 1t amt such
a gol darned pleasant place to be in a
blizzard. Be it, boys?"
The boys laughed, but the stranger re-
manned undisturbed. Jones continued
to enlarge on the unpleasant features OF
stay in the woods at this time of year,
but it did not seem to impress the city
man. He was strapping big fellow,
active and muscular, and he seemed to
know what he was about. The ladies
were buxom and healthy looking, and
although the wind whistled as they start
ed away they didn't seem to mind it a
bit.
None of the party said how long they
expected to remain in the woods. The
snow may be very deep before they re
turn. Ben Jones says he can remember
winters when the snow was five feet deer
on the level throughout the woods be
fore Christmas. Winters have been milo
of late years, but if a blizzard were tt

selves snowbound. The part of the

WANTED TO HAUNT THE COOK,
Fred Andrews Choice Of q Cell
for Hanging Purposes.
He Was Cut Down and Di sappointed
to Find Himself Alive.
An Exciting Incident Yesterday in the
County Jail-A Pris oner Who Was
Tired OF Life and Its
Troubles.

"When l hang myself tomorrow, I'll
do 1t in that 49, cooks cell, so as | can
haunt him, and make things lively for
the -"
Fred Andrews, awaiting his trial for
burglary, made this remark to one of his
fellow prisoners on Sunday night.
At little after o'clock yesterday
morning Andrews was discovered hang
ing from his window with the blood
gushing from his cara and mouth. Jailer
Henry cut the man down and removed
him in an unconscious condition to
another apartment. DR.. Wernigk was
sent for, and, after working on the
would-be suicide for over an hour, the
man recovered. The doctor stated that
had the jailer found him minute later
life would have been extinct.
Andrews, on regsining consciousness,
was extremely annoyed at his safety
and declared his firm intention of kill
ing himself before leaving iail for trial.
He stated that mis- business affairs were
in confusion, that he was no good to
anyone ana J1au n0 Wh5 butS W BO W
states prison. He was especially dis
pleased at losing the opportunity of
haunting the cook, to whom he had a
particular aversion.
Andrews is one of the mac" brigade
and confirmed morphine fend. He
was to have been tried in the superior
court yesterday for having burglarized a
painters store some time during last
month.
The man is painter by trade and has
been~empoyed of late in repainting the
interior of the county Jail. He Appeared
to be cheerful until Sunday night, when
he heard that Deputy District Attorney
Dupuy was not to prosecute his case.
On hearing the name OF the attorney
who was to act az the attorneys substi-
tute, he exclaimed: "That settles me;
that - = would send me up if l were
twice innocent"
AT present Andrews is confined in the
insane cell for additional safety, and is
carefully watched. He is stated to be
man Of fine education and ability, but
his addiction for the last ten years to
the use of morphine and other drugs
has entirely undermined both his moral
and physical constitution.

from what threatens in the future.
There Is not gold enough to be the basis
of ell our promises, nor need there be,
II only the promises are believed in.
A recent writer points out that the
highest priced bond in our market--.he
West Shore 4's-is not gold bond; and
that many Of our most desirable securi-
ties-not q few OF which are held
sbroad-like the Lake Shore, New York
Central, Erie, Illinois Central. are pay
able in currency. This is fact OF great
significance, but not usually parsded
before men. Let us hold fast to that
which is good or what can be made
good. Above all let US not be frightened
by false cries. Silver may possibly be
over-used and cheapened-at least in
mems minds and theories-but let us
be made calm in contemplation of this
by remembering that less than forty
years ago, by more than one school of
economic writer's, gold itself was de-
clared likely to be discredited as money
because of the vast amount of that me-
then coming into the market.

That Is the Prediction of San Fran
cisco Paper.
The San Francisco Evening Post" OF
Saturday says: e ap''a't
1t is now said to be an open secret
. among prominent politicians that Irwin
@. Stump will be seated in the Senatorial
chair made vacant by the death of
Senator Stanford.
The announcement, though authorita-
tive, has not yet been made public for
the reason that to give il out now would
be exceptional bad taste.
ltis we'll known that the former chair
man of the Republican State central
committee is prominently spoken of as
o candidate for the Gubernatorial chair.
The gentleman has been a leader of
his party in this state for many years,
and it is said by politicians close to the
governor that as soon as the latter re-
turns from Chicago he will make the
appointment, and in reasonably de-
cent time the announcement will be
made public.
81 know" said a gentleman standing
in the Office of the Palace hotel, with
q cipher dispatch in his hand from
Governor Markham, "that Irwin G.
Stump will be the next United States
Senator from California. This dispatch
tells me co."
On being assured that the name OF the
receiver of the dispatch would not be
disclosed the telegram was read as fol-
lows:
Assure Mr.. Stump that no one else
has been considered in relation to the
United States Senstorialship nor will
they be. MARKHAM.
"Why did not the governor send the
dispatch directly to Mr.. Stump?' was
asked.
''Simply because the gentleman has
not solicited the Office, and this is an
answer to dispatch sent by three of us
in his behalf only two days ago." he
answered.
Have you informed him yet?v
"Oh no, / have just received it. You
may announce it through the papers,
and it probably will be before l show
this to Mr.. Stump, as he is too much
affected by the death of Senator Stan
ford, and absorbed in the event of his
funeral just now.
He would not thank us for the infor-
nation at this time'

whose purse was always open to the de-.

1t is conceded on all bands that the
preferred man is eminently qualified for
the high position and will take the in
tereste of California to heart.
In surveying the field no one else APP
pears to have the same prominence for

SILVER struck its lowest water-m ark
yesterday, 78 8l0 per ounce. This is
the lowest point ever reached in the
history of the metal. 1t is ascribed to
the announcement that the mints of
India ihave determined to close against
the coinage OF the white metal, and that
that country is going to adopt the gold
metal basis. This is easier said than
done. India has from the earliest times
been silver country. Her people have
always carried out all their transactions
in that metal, and the great mass of her
lower classes, whose wages are infinit-
isimally small, adjust their labor en- the
silver idea. The discrepancy between
the value of the two metals will bear
with terrific weight upon the masses of
India, and Great Britain may find that
she has more difficult task ON hand
than she thinks for in forcing this
radical change upon 80 conservative a
people.

Chinese have been regularly smuggled
into the country from British Columbia
in great numbers as regular business,
and everybody knew that opium was
surreptitiously brought into Washington
from Victoria on the arrival at that'port
OF every China steamer. Indeed, the
traffic in contrsbsnd Chinese and opium
has been steadily carried on for years in

and they are handled by many persons
who take great risks, without knowing

described as in horrible condition, and
the council ought to take immediste
steps either to suppress this crying
nuisance or compel the contractor to i'm
