Plucky American Woman Who Has In

Plucky American Woman Who Has In
vaded the Polar Regions.
1t is a matter of news that Mrs.
Willis, of Tacoma, has gone into the
far north in search of a business open
ing, but there may be some readers who
have heard of the brave pioneer, and it
is for their benefit that the following
dispatch, sent from Tacoma, Wash, is
quoted:
Mrs. Willis, of Tacoma, the first white
woman to attempt a journey through
the widest and most dangerous part of
Alaska, left to-day on the steamer Will
lapa for Circle City, situated on the
Yukon river, just inside the arctic rim.
She made the journey last year and
found an admirable opening for q
bakery, and returned here for the nee
essary supplies. She takes two sleds
heavily loaded, which will be hauled
over the snow 1000 miles by dogs. With
her own hands she will fell trees and
build two canoes in which to cross Lake
Linderman and go down two rivers to
Circle City. River navigation is eX-
ceedingly dangerous, and in several
places it is necessary to carry the canoes
around high waterfalls. Speaking of
the venture, she said:
"Yes, it is quite an undertaking, but
there is no real danger. Hundreds of
weak men successfully accomplished
the journey. All it requires is pluck,
energy and plenty of nerve. Dogs af-
ford me ample protection from wild
animals. see no reason why q woman
should not brave the perils of q short
journey like this to make stake
MY husband is an invalid, and the
opportunity for the establishment of a
bakery at Circle City is good. Any
honest, persevering woman can engage
in profitable and respectable business
there and return in few years with
thousands of dollarS"

sidered reliably Republican. Figuring
has shown that out of these eight coun-
ties could be certainly carried by fusion
of the elements opposed to Republican
rule, and four could be carried with a
better organization than the Democrats
had in 1892. If fusion is brought about
in the Republican counties, as it bids
fair to be, the Republicans will not be
able to carry half of them and there will
not be the slightest chance of the legis-
lature being captured by them.
''The election of United States sen-
ator to succeed Vest comes up this ses-
sion, and harder fight Is going to be
made than has characterized any cam
paign in recent years.. Fusion means
that under no circumstances can the
Republicans elect a majority of the legis-
lature, and it means the reelection OF
Senator Vest and the blasting of the
hopes of Chauncey I. Filley, the Repub-
lican leader, who is understood to aspire
to the place."

mitchell Solid for mckinley
Telegram.

Senator John 81. Mitchell for while
will be the guest of his daughter, Mrs.
Robert P. Heimbold, at 561 Irving street.
Although he has spent considerable
time travelling through the Eastern
states since the adjournment of congress
and encountered many hot wave, he
looks the picture of health, and as he
expresses it will be in excellent trim for
the fall campaign in which he hopes to
take an active part. Notwithstanding
his reputed silver proclivities, he is a
Mckinley man, and wears a Mckinley
and Hobart button. It is his purpose to
stump the state for the Republican nom
inees and tell the people in plain words
why it is for the best interest of the
country to elect Mckinley. The indica-
tions in the East, he says are decidedly
in favor of the election of the Ohio states
man, as the free-siiver craze in many
places has run its race. People are COM
ing back to their sober senses and study
ing the situation with more calmness
and deliberation. He basis his hopes
for the election of Mckinley on the
intelligence of the average American
voter, and says when the votes are
counted it will be seen that there are not
so many fools as the Bryan following
would have people to believe.
Senator Mitchell will devote some lit
tie time to the arrangement of his busi-
ness affairs, but when the campaign
opens in Oregon, he will be found in the
front ranks for Mckinley and the Re-
publican party.

about SO persons were present.

formed by Rev. George F. Magill, D. D.,
rector of Trinity church, of which Mr..
Vanderbilt is member. Bishop Potter
delivered the benediction. The bride

clining chair.

issued today to the F'friends of bimetal-
ism in the United states,'' signed by A.
J. Warner, president of the American
Bimetallic Union, and George E. Bowen,
secretary. After declaring the import
ance of the silver question, in the pres

''The contest is now on, and it can

that the decision may be right the

To all interested IN the cause we say,

we will aid in the work of organization
and education to the utmost of our

The spirit seems to be irremedial. Each
side will name full state ticket if the

ASOUND- RALLY
Reed Addresses Many ThOus-
and Maine Republicans.
EMOcRATIC RULE DENOUNCED
Causes of Present Industrial Depression
Clearly Set Forth-The Ex-speaker
Well Received.

OLD ORCHARD, Me-, Aug. 25.-The
Republicans of Maine, according to Gus
tom, held grand rally here this after
noon, at which were gathered thousands
from all over the state, as well as from
other parts of New England. Among
the speakers were Hon. Thomas B. Reed
and Hon. Lee Fairchild.
Mr.. Reeds a pearance was the signal
for wild demonstration from the en-
thusiastic crowd which lasted for several
minutes. At its close Mr.. Reed thanked
the people for the fattering reception
rendered him, and then proceeded with
his discussion of the political issues of
the day.
In conclusion Mr.. Reed said:
"These financial matters are governed
by natural laws and take their course
like the rolling of the round earth or the
glitter of the stars. Suppose man was
created full grown and set upon soli-
tary earth facing the dawn. AS the
panorama of sunrise, the march of the
fountain of light across the sky, the red
sunset and the black darkness came
over him, what could he make of this
termination of this gorgeous pageantry
of the skies? Nothing but darkness,
desolation and death and wild calling
on the unknown God to help. But the
man who has from earliest boyhood seen
the sun disappear into its bed to peep
up another day, may be ignorant of
Kepler's law and of Galileo's faith, but
he knows no greater certainty on earth
than that the day follows night.
ga man who has only seen 1898 might
well wonder and call for rescue, but we
who have seen 1873 and have read of
1925 and 1851 In England and 1887 in
America, know that we shall as as
suredlv rise again 10 business and pros
perity as that the sun shall rise.
Be not deceived by false prophet.
In the West they tell the people that
Maine is faltering. You and 1 know
she never was so steadfast. Here in the
East they tell us the West is blazing
with silver crosses and is crowned with
silver thorns, but when the tug of battle
comes the gallant West, peopled by our
children, will show to the world that
brothers true and tried who have fought
so many fights, shoulder to shoulder in
the great conflict of human progress, will
never be separated from each ether OF
from that great party round which clust-
cred all the glories of the most illustrious
years of this country's history"

First station Officers Have n Time

Yesterday morning about 3 o'clock.
while Sergeant Whitiock and Officer
Hackett were in charge of the First Po-
LEGISLATION. their attention was attract
cd TO an uproar downstairs. Male and
female voices blended in an augury,
which made the early morning hours
hiaeous Thumpl Thump! came a bowl
ing trio up the steps. The officers soon
D observed a stout negro man, with baoy
' in his arms, leading chorus. joined IN
by two negro women. who were singing
alto and contr8lto with an energy worthy
of the best talent I'm the land.
The man was wild. apparently. His
eye. were starting from their sockets,
while insanity leered out from their
raging depths. The tiny child was all
most hidden beneath the broad brawny
arms. and the thought flashed over the
officers minds that a terrible fate await
cd the infant unless some one else should
be given its care.
Sergeant Whiuock saw his chance IN
moment. and. assuming his most COM
handing voice. ordered the man, whose
name proved to be Carter, 10 give the
child TO the elder woman. This. much
10 the surprise Of both officers and wo-
men. the apparently mailman did. Though
Carriers language coming up the steps
was very vile and vulgar, the Sergeant
got an inkling that the man was re-
lipfous fanatic, and. acting quickly while
he was under his power. bade him step
into a certain room, If he wanted to
preach to tho people Carter fell into the
trap. and the door was quickly slammed.
Later in the day. when the prisoner
had become more quiet he was sent up
TO Jail. where a commission Of lunacy
was held. with the result that the man
was pronounced thoroughly demented.
