INFERRED AT JUNEAU.
Funeral of w. T. Rambusch Sunda
Afternoon.


Funeral of w. t. Rambusch Sunday
Afternoon.
The mortal remains of w. T. Ram
busch, the defaulting real estate agent,
passed through this city Sunday noon
on freight train and arrived at Juneau
at about 1:3O P. NJ, having been
shipped from Fredericksburg, Va :,
Friday night, after Identification by
two nephews of the deceased, F. E.
Rambusch, of New York City, and
Captain II. A. Dagger, of Brooklyn.
Upon arrival at juneau the body was
taken to the Rambusch home, where
it was exposed to the view of citizens.
Brief services, conducted by Rev. J. J.
Simpson, of Horizon, were held in the
house and the interment then took
place IN the cemetery near the city. A
jury to decide upon the identity of the
dead man was summoned by the sheriff
and sworn in, this proceeding being
taken to circumvent any groundless
stories that might hereaftergaln current
was hoax to make good his escape.
Regarding the status of affairs in the
Rambusch case, last weeks Juneau
Telephone said: Things have quoted
down some here within the past three
or four days, and the register of deeds
and his deputy are having breathing
spell, after the big excitement, caused
by the discovery Of Rambusch's de-
falcation. No new discovery of any
crooked work has come to light since
Monday, but enough was found out up
to that time to show that Rambusch
had heeced his customers out of an
aggregate of 100000. The amount of
money he secured by fraud may never
be found out, as some people are re-
luctant to make their losses known.
From such memoranda as have been
kept, 1T Is pretty certain that his swim

Some PEOPLES Folly.

Why some persons will suffer with
the excruciating pangs of rheumatism,
when they can be so easily cured by
that greatest Of pain-cures, Salvation
Oil, is past human comprehension.
That Salvation Oil does cure rheuma-
tism is evidenced by Mr.. G. F. Schra-
der, Pierce, Neb., who says ST have
used Salvation Oil and think there is
no liniment on earth like it. I had the
rheumatism for several months and
could get no relief until I used Sal
walton Oil, two bottles of which effected
cure, and feel as we'll as ever. No
home should be without it." Salvation
Oil is sold everywhere for Is cents.
When dealers offer a substitute be-
ware, you'll be victimized. Insist on
having the best, Salvation Oil.

AFTER The SPECULATORS
G.rmany's New Law Will Prevent
Gambling in Stocks.
Recent Heavy Losses to the Public
Said to Be Responsible for
the Act.

The State Department has just issued a
report in regard to the new la W in Germany
to govern the price Of grain and mill prod
ucts. Its purpose is to raise the prices OF
these articles, and the method employed is
the regulation Of speculation in them, and
the prohibition of what is known as time
contracts.
The rapid growth OF this form OF specula-
ton and heavy losses to the public are said
to be responsible for the passage or the
law. The State Department gives cur
rency and effectiveness to the opinion that
the legislation will prove wholesome il 1t
prevents stock gambling.
The more important provisions OF the law
aresummarizedin In the following paragraphs

Northern Arkansas the rain was accompa-

growing crops. The damage to railroad

MAGNETIC SURVEYS.


Ihe most important work of exploration
that remains at the present day, and the
work that will be Of the most immediate
benefit, Is a magnetic survey of the terri
tory Immediately surrounding the North
Magnetic Pole
ihis pole is situated in the vicinity of
Cape Felix at the northern end of King
williams Land, and near the seventie.h
parallel OF north latitude
In ls31 1t was approximately located On
the west coast of Boothia Felix by Cant.
Sir James Clarke Ross. Since then it an
pears to have been travelling In a westerly
direction, or, rather such is the theory of
some magnetsts, drawn from the fact that
there Is at present a constant westerly va
riation of the magnetic needle.
o'her magnet:sts say that. as nothing Is
more fixed than the poles of a magnet. th,.
ear'h being magnet, its magnetic poles
cannot move Those who agree upon there
being movement OF the poles are not all
agreed upon nthedirection and rate 20 fmotio,i.
These are important facts that await in

On the 4th OF July, 1873, Lieut.
schwatka stood at Cape Felix and

century before Sir James Ross had estab-
iished that pole. Unfortunately, their OBJ ject
not contemplating visit to this point, they
were without instruments with which In

But some day that work viii have To he

America, it, is fitting that the work should
be done by Americans.
