THE RAINY LAKE COUNTRY.
It's Room IS Gone, but Gold Prospects Are


It's Room IS Gone, but Gold Prospects Are
Good.
J. G. Foley, who is. operating on the
original Wiegand mine on the Seine
river section of the Rainy Lake gold
fields, came down from the gold country
today, on his way East, where he will
remain until about March /, says the
Duluth Herald of February 13. Mr..
Foley expresses himself as even more
satisfied with the outlook for his prop
erty than he was when he was located
in Duluth, and has just got the gold
fever. The boom up there has fattened
out completely, as all booms do, whether
they are backed by anything or not, and
the result is that the country is quiet in
comparison to what it was in the palmy
days.
There are hardly a dozen people there.
There are some good claims on the
American side, but everything is SO tied
UP with litigation that it is impossible
to do much of anything. Along the
Seine only two concerns are working,
Foley's and the so-called English syDdi-
cate. All the rest are holding out and
waiting the outcome. As for the two
concerns above mentioned, they are pro-
ceeding with their developments, and
will be ready for actual operations next
summer.

Foley land we are we'll satisfied with

though it were permanent. widening as it
goes down. We lost the vein on our first
shaft on No. 5 vein, but it is now devei-
oping again and the fissure is filled there.
By September /, if it holds out as it has
all the time, we shall be turning out bull

could put in a 5-stamp mill now, and
work in small way, but we prefer to
wait until we can run a 20-stamp mill. y

Big Game shrinks on the Scales.

The heaviest moose, when fat, weighs
about 400 pounds, perhaps 1900 There
was a grizzly bear in a Chicago cage
which hunters said was the biggest bear
certainly weigh 1900 or 1000 pounds.
They had killed bears weighing 1900
pounds easy, but never such monster as
that. AS a matter of fact, the bear
weighed exactly 1853 pounds. It is just
the same with deer up in the Adiron-
dacks. When a big deer is killed it
but on the scales he shrinks. If guide
says deer is big one, weighing 200
easily, it is rule of visitors not to
weigh the animal lest the guide be proved
wrong. There is an instance on record,
however, of a buck deer that weighed
OH the scales upward of 318 pounds. It
would be interesting to have a 400
pound" black bear weighed.-New York

to run down the calves less than year

in getting 10 per cent. of these calves to
a ranch alive They often drop dead
while being pursued. The destruction of
elk now going on is said to be very large.

doctors Failed to Relieve Her
How the Disease Was Conquered.
From the Press. Appleton MINI.
Of all the ordinary diseases to which
humanity is heir, there is, perhaps, none
more general or more painful than rheu-
matism. The Press having learned that
Mrs. Mary A. Marshall, a well-known
lady of Appleton, Mimi, this city, had for
some time past been sufferer from this
complaint, and that she had found a rem
edy which not only gave almost immediate
relief. but which effected complete cure,
and believing that the dissemination of
few facts regarding it would perhaps be of
interest and benefit to many of our read
ers, interviewed the lady upon the mat
ter. The reporter found Mrs. Marshall at
her pleasant home busily engaged in per-
forming her household duties in a man
ner which did not in the least indicate
rheuma tiSm, and secured from her the fol-
lowing statement:
ut is about a year and a Eaxlf ago that
| first experienced these attacks Of rheu-
matism AS they became more frequent
they became more painful and while l
used the prescriptions of several doctors
| failed to find relief. About a year ago
l noticed in paper testimonial as to the
effectiveness Of DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People, and was so impressed by
the statements made therein that / deter
mined to try them. My husband accord
ingly sent for supply of six boxes, and
| am free to say that before l had used
two boxes Of the pills / became aware Of
a change for the better. | continued to
improve until to-day am as free from all
traces of rheumatism as l was before
these attacks. | can also truthfully say
that aside from speedily and effectually
curing the rheumatism the pills have done
me a great deal of good in generally reno
waiting the system, purifying the blood
and relieving those numerous little all
ments to which women are most common
ly addicted"
Mr.. Marshall was present during the
interview and was sincere in his praise of
what the pills had done for his wife, be-
lieving them to have been the sole and di-
rect cause of her relief.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie are considered an unfailing specific
for such diseases as locomotor ataXia, par
tial paralysis, st. Vitus' dance, sciatica,
neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache,
the after effects of la grippe, palpitation
of the heart, pale and sall0w compilations,
that tired feeling resulting from nervous
prostratiOn; all diseases resulting from
vltiated humOrs in the blood, such as scrOf-

DUST STORMS AT SEA.
Peculiar Phenomenon Encountered by
the Steel Ship Scottish Dales.

SI66I H7H1COs
The steel ship Scottish Dales arrived
at Tacoma, Wash, last week. When
off the River Platte, in the Argentine
Republic, the Scottish Dales had a most
peculiar experience. The mast and spars
were covered with fine white dust
which came in clouds. 1t was of very
light nature and fell over the deck in
large quantities. When rubbed between
the fingers it would gradually evaporate
and disappear 1t is believed the dust
was from some volcano then in erup-
ton in the Andes mountains.
Capt Thomas Mccarthy of the Scot
fish Dales said it was one of the most
remarkable phenomena he had ever seen.
The captain also had a mutinied crew
to deal with, but subdued them without
loss of life. The Scottish Dales is from
Hamburg, Germany, with cement.

Convention Call.
Minneapolis, Oct. rs, 1896.
To All Labor Organizations in
Minnesota, Greeting:
. The semi-annual meeting of
the State Federation of Labor
will convene in St. Paul on Sum-
day, Dec. 10, 1886. All affiliated
organizations and those DESTROYS
of utilization are hereby cordially
invited to be represented by dele
gates at said meeting. The basis
of representation is one delegate
for each rs members or major
fraction thereof, but no local
organization shall be entitled to
more than five delegates. The
revenue of the Federation comes
from the collection of serni-an-
nual dues of ST per delegate, and
an utilization fee of 81 from each
organization on it's entrance.
Bodies heretofore affiliated, but
which are unable to be repre-
sented at any meeting, may con-
tinue themselves as affiliated or
CARNATIONS in good standing by
transmitting to the secretary
the semi annnal dues for a least
one delegate.
The chief work of the Fedora
ton SO far has been to guard the
interests of the wage-workers
before the legislature Of the state.
That this work was well per-
formed before the lastlegislature
and was of great value to all
the labor organizations in the
state, and was indeed vital is
now known by all who have
given the matter attention. So
well were our interests looked
after that persons and organic
atoms outside our lines sought
our aid for measures in which
they were interested. Next win
ter comes another legislative
session. There are yet many

friends, and our lives shall prove
our appreciation of the affection
which we prize as the richest re-
ward which this campaign has
brought. In the face of an enemy,
rejoicing in it's victory, let the
roll be called for the engagement,
and I urge all friends of bimetall-
ism to renew their allegiance to
the cause.
IF we are right, as believe
we are, we shall yet triumph.
Until convinced of his error, let
each advocate of bimetallism
continue the work. Let all silver
clubs retain their organiza ton,
hold the regular meetings and
circulate literature. Our oppon-
ents have succeeded in this cam
paign and must now stand the
test. Our cause has prospered
most where the money question
has been longest discussed among
the people. During the next four
years it will be studied all over
this nation even more than it
has been studied in the past.
1.-THE year 1900 is not far away.
Before that year arrives those
who have called themselves
gold standard democrats will
be bimetallists and republicans,
and thus open enemies before
that year arrives; the trusts
will have convinced the people
that they are menace to pub
lie welfare and safety; the evil
of a gold standard will be even
more apparent than now, and
the people then be ready to de-
mand an American financial
policy for the American people,
and will join with us in the i'm
mediate restoration of the free
and unlimited coinage of gold
and silver at the present legal
ratio of Is to 1, without waiting
for the aid or consent of any
other nation.

Gently acquired the old John
Brown homestead, and it is to
be preserved in "memory of his
heroism and lofty IDEAL" What
strange changes few years
bring forth! John Brown was a
revolutionist, a defer of estab-
lished law and custom, man
hunted like a wild beast and
hung as a public enemy. All
over the North the Abolitionists
hung their heads when he made
his raid on the slave power at
Harpers Ferry. Like Peter they
denied him. "Hus-s-sh," they
whispered, "he has broken the
law!" and they crawled into their
shells and hid. In twenty years
the children of the nation were
taught to sing peans to his men,
DRY, and in forty years he is dei-
fled! So short-sighted is the hu-
man animal! So little does one
generation know what the next
one will do. So strong is ex-
pediency, so potent public opin-
ion. In the next generation the
children will be singing the praise
of men whose names are now
greeted with yells of derlsion
and contumely, and names that
now bring forth hurrahs from
the Roman-like rabb1e will be
covered with infamy. In forty
years hence, an advocate of prl-
vate property in land and ma
chinery will be looked upon as a
Socialist is now looked upon
with a squint at his sanity.-Ap-
peal to reason.
