SEEING THE FUTURE.

A so-called magician in London has been
coming money lately by showing people
pictures OF their future life. One strong
man saw himself depicted as an aged,
worn-out wreck of humanity, broken down
with care. a woman iii robust health saw
herself transformed into gloomy invalid.
There was trick about it, OF course, but
every visitor went away feeling heavy
hearted and despondent.
There are thousands of men and women
to-day who would be filled with similar
terror ii they could only see the future in
store for them unless they do something
at once to prevent il. They are nervous
weak, tired langud, exhausted in nerve
power and physical strength. Thew are
sleepless and awaken tired and unra.
freshed, without energy for the davjs
WORK.
When people get to feeling like this if
plainly shows that their systems are badly
run down. These symptoms are the snrs
signs OF malaria, of debility, and the hast
way to get rid OF them is to take a mira
medicinal stimuiaut which will bnild mn
the strength. Fhe best stimulant is nure
whiskey, but it must be absolutely pure,
and there is only one whiskey-Duffvis
pure malt-which fully answers this de-
scription. This whi,key drives out ma
laria and bnilds up the whole system. 1t
makes weak, weary people strong and
well. All grocers and druggists keep
Duffy's pure malt whiskey. There is no
other whiskey like Duffy's, and nothing
else that can possibly take its place.

ROBBERS MURDER
A USAL RANCHER
John Mudgett Slain for His
Store of Hoarded
Wealth.
Assassins Set Fire to His House
to Destroy Evidence of
Their Crime.
HIS BODY HALF CREMATED.
The Conflagration Dies Out When the
Building Is but Partially
Consumed.

CAHTO. CAL, Nov. 2.-The half cre-
mated body OF John Mudgett, wealthy
rancher of Usal, was found to-day in the
embers of his half-burned home at that
place by w. H. Davis, neighbor. Mud
gett lived alone on an immense tract of
land. He was a reputed hoarder of veal th
and 1t was rumored that he had money
stored about the house. His body bore
unmistakabe evidence of death by vio-
lence before the flamesr ached him. Both
lower limbs are missing.
The house had been fired and the con-
aagration, after burning for time,
had been extlnguished by lack of a
draught. Kerosene oil had been used to
start the fire, as two cans hurriedly picked
open with hatchet were among the par
tial ruins.
That Mudgett met foul play seems an
assured fact since the discovery that all OF
his winter supplies are gone. 1t is wei
known that he recently received a large
consignment of -four and other provisions
necessary to tide him over the winter
months. Persons suspected of the crime
are under surveillance. The Sheriff and
Coroner are expected 10 arrive on the
scene at daylight.
The deceased was unmarried, 46 years OF
age, native of Belfast, Me-, and had q
cousin of the same name in Fortuna,
Humboldt County.

BETTING ON Los

Mckinley Men Offer Even
Money, With Few
Takers.
Bryanites Unwilling to Risk
Cash in Support of Their
Claims.
REPUBLICAN SUCCESS CERTAIN
A Remarkable Change in Favor of
Sound Money in the
South.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Nov. 2.-One of
the most remarkable campaigns ever
known in Southern California closed here
toni bit. Com binations and fusions of
every sort have been entered Tito, while
party lines have been broken in a manner
never before equaled in the history of
politics in this country. Owing to this
condition everybody is considerably at
sea as to the result of to-morrow's vote.
Predictions and estimates of the parties
are as wide apart as the oceans. The
Bryanites claim the county by 1000
majority, but, with nothing tangible upon
which to base their representations, the
Republicans claim the county by from
1000 to 1900.
At betting headquarters here a remark
Able change has been observed in the past
two or three days in favor of sound money.
The principal betting is on the State and
county. Even money is offered by Nc
Kinley men that the county will go Re-
publican, but there are few takers An
offer which is attracting considerable at
tention is one OF even money that Mckin-
ley will receive forty more electoral votes
than Bryan. The Bryan hackers are
somewhat shaky, and if they have any
opinion they are not anxious 10 back it up
with coin.' On general results 21z to l on
D Mckinley is freely offered with but few
takers.
A bet of $25 to $35 was placed to-day
that Mckinley would receive fifty more
electoral votes than Bryan. Mckinley
money was freely offered on Illinois, In
diana and Iowa with no takers.

The Governor, Mrs. Budd and John W.

The Governor stepped on the balcony
and delivered short address, which was

After this speech the visitor was piloted
over to the free-silver headquarters, where
he spoke Tor ten minutes.
Afterward an informal reception was
held in the parlors of the hotel, many old

In company with several invited guests
the Governor and Mrs. Budd were then

This evening Governor Budd spoke to
many thousands of people, first at the

PORTLAND, Or, Nov. 2.-Incoming
trains and steamers to-day brought home
many leading campaigners, and at the
respective headquarters encouraging re-
ports were given out. Outside OF Port
land and Multpomah County, which are
overwhelmingly Republican, the question
OF which way the State will go tomorrow
is much in doubt.
Betting is lively and much Mckinley
money was placed to-day at to l. A
rumor was started this afternoon that
there was money waiting for takers that
Bryan would have some kind of majority
in Oregon, but the cash was Withdrawn.
There is every indication that large
vote will be poiled tomorrow in this State.
The campaign has been the most exciting
ever experienced in the Northwest, and
all forces are active and determined.
The weather forecast for tomorrow is
occasional rain, warmer in eastern part of
State and some sunshine. 1t is thought
the storm which has been raging on the
coast will abate tonight and that it will
not interfere with the vote. The Repub-
licans say tonight that Coos and Clack-
amas counties, not thickly populated but
overwhelmingly Populistic, will 60 for
Mckinley.
The city has received within week an
alien population of several hundred, in.

the bloody scenes at the primaries last
April and June, when the Bloody

Trouble is feared and the police will have
their hands full preserving order. All
business is to be suspended and offices
closed. As no Congressmen are to be
voted for here tomorrow, the ballot is
simple and the result in Oregon should
be known early. although from interior

EUREKA, CAL, Nov. 2.-The greatest
and most exciting political demonstration
ever witnessed in Humboldt County
marked the close of the campaign in Eu-
reka tonight.
Both silverites and Republicans held
rallies, preceded by parades. and there
was presented the odd scene of long lines
OF torch bearing adherents OF the opposing
factions marching along the principal
streets at the same time and frequently
passing each other on the same street, the
one shouting for Bryan and Cutler, the
other for Mckinley and Barnam, all good
naturedly chatting each other but withal
maintaining the best of order and good
feeling.
The Republican line, which included
the Mckinley Drill Corps. 200 strong. ali
uniformed and wearins golden chrysan-
themums in their caps. outnumbered by
two TO on the silverites, whose principal
organization wes the "W hart Rats Union,"
composed largely of longshoremen.
The Republican meeting was at Gen.
tennial Hall while the silverites rallied at
the Fair Pavilion. the attendance about
equal-1500 at each.
Frank W. Cushman of Washington,
Hon. Frank MCGOWAN and Ernest Sewer,
OF Eureka, the latter a recent convert
from the Democracy, addressed the Repub-
licans, while +. A. Cutler OF Eureka fu-
sion nominee for Congress, spoke to his
party. The silverites' meeting was purely
a Cutler meeting, but while there was as
many Republicans as siiverites in the pa
yilion the meeting at Centennial Hall was
almost wholly composed Of Republicans.
Conservative estimates for tomorrow give
the county to Mckinley by about 300.

JUDGE HANFoRD's DECISION.
Rules That Both Vessels Aided in
Rescuing the Foundered
Steamship.

SEATTLE, WASH, Nov. 2.--Judge Han
ford OF the Federal court held a special
session this evening and decided the fa-
nous Strathnevis case, which few
months ago was the talk of steamship
men not only in the United States but in
the Orient and In Europe. In his decision
Judge Hanford awards salvage claims
against the Strathnevis. which is North
ern Pacific ship, amounting to upward of
$4,000.
The Strathnevis left the port OF Tacoma
on October II. 1895, for the Orient. 1t
touched at Victoria. took on a passenger
or two and some freight, and then started
on its long journey. On the seventh day
out its propeller shaft broke and the ves-
sci found itself so thoroughly disabled
that 1t was unable to proceed. Then
came on heavy storms and the Strath-
nevis was in bad way, and the news went
out that it was lost. After being out
fifty nine days the Canadian Pacific steam
ship Miowera, running from Vancouver
to Australia, encountered the Strat hnevis.
AT the time the Strathnevis was flying
signals of distress. The Miowera sent q
man aboard and it was agreed that the
Miowera should tow the disabled ship
back to Puget Sound.
But difficulty was encountered. Several
times the hawser broke ana as many
times 1t was repaired. and the Miowera
worked many days to get the Strathnevis
back to the sound. On December 20 the
Strathnevis and Miowera were about forty
miles from Cape Flattery. Again the
hawser broke, and on December %, while
the Strathnevis and Miowera were sixty
three miles from Cape Flattery, having
been unable for several days to make any
progress, the two ships got separated.
The Miowera searched for some hours for
the disabled ship, but was unable to find
1t. Finally it proceeded on its journey to
Australia.
About the same time the Mineola,
owned by the Pacific improvement Com
pany. and en- route to San Francisco from
Tacoma. encountered the Strathnevis. 1t
was flying signals of distress and the
Mineola went 10 its rescue and succeeded
In getting the vessel back to Puget Sound.
The Miowera and M,neola both filed
libels for salvage and the case was argued
the Mineola's owner $12. 900, its captain
$500 and the individual mem bers of the
crew sums ranying from 5000 to 500 and
amounting in all to abon $1200 He gives
the Miowera's owners SIS 600 and the
mem bers of the crew about 500. in sums
of from $500 to $50. The court holds that
the two ships which went to the rescue OF
the Strathnevis were responsible for its
heing saved, and says that although the
Miowera was com pelled to desert the
Strathnevis in the eud, it nevertheless
towed the vessel out of immediate danger
and placed il where it was saved by
another ship.

J. G. Campbell and Judge Van K. Patter-

given with will. NJ. T. Noyes, a promi-
nent San Joaquin County farmer, was
Chairman of the meeting, and paid his re-
spects to what he termed the two hum
bugs-free silver and free trade.
Judge Patterson was the first speaker.
and he offered one of the most logical and
convincing arguments of the campaign.
Campbell followed in fiery speech, which
added to the enthusiasm of the big audi.

one OF his old-time speeches, full of logic
and delightful 10 listen to.
