GOLD DOES NOT EXIST,
President Owen Addresses a Let
ter to The Gazette.

To THE ED1ToR:-I regret to see IN
your paper of the 23d that you call
Mr.. Hoxie a "Prospector." This does
him great injustice and l wish you
would, correct it. He is in no sense a
"Prospector" but an experienced min
ing and civil engineer, man who has
had charge of developed and operat-
ing properties in California, Old Mex
leo. and for the last three years a
property in Venezuela that yielded
S5OO,OOO per month.
Recent work in the mine seems to
show pretty conclusively that gold
bearing quartz, in paying quantities,
does not exist there.
If, however, those owning land in
the vicinity will give our company
permission to prospect on their land,
without asking much money for the
privilege, we may do little more
work there before abandoning the en-
terprise permanently.
Respectfully yours,
H. r. OWEN.

MORE CONSPIRACY
And the Senate Now Has a Silver
Majority.

To THE EDITOR: In your issue of
the 9th inst, in an editorial, you COM
ment on the fact of the United States
senate finance committee being in
control of the silver men, id in
which article you also suggest some
large and important questions for
consideration, all of which I shall be
pleased to take up in future issues,
but for the present must confne my
self to the demonstration of the ques-
ton already propounded, viz; that
this country, and in fact, the world, is
suffering from contraction of cur
rency brought about bv a conspiracy
OF the money power, whose headquart-
ers are in London and it's ramifications
extend to the ends of the earth. The
demonetization of silver in Europe
and this country, is but an incident in
the great scheme, and the heads of the
various governments OF the world are
but puppets in the hands of these
men. At the head of the scheme
stands the Jew Rothschilds of London
and Europe, which family acts as a
unit. These are backed by their Jew
compeers and thousands of Ango-
Saxon Jews scattered through our
and other National bank systems. So
great is the power of the Rothschild
family, that no European nation can
make war without their consent, in
proof Of which I will mention an
incident which occurred in Prussia in
1866.

DRUGGED WILLARD.
The Owner of the Big Farm Mon
keyed With in Chicago.

The Chicago News of the Goth inst.
says, relating to the disappearance
from the Leland hotel of John A.
Willard, of Mankato, and his subse-
quent discovery at the Palmer:
cat an hour shortly after midnight,
Mr.. Willard walked into the Palmer
alone and asked for room. Shortly
after he was domiciled he rang for a
bell-boy and ordered some whisky.
After drinking the whisky Mr.. Will
lard passed into a semi-conscious
state. All efforts towards arousing
him exerted by his friend, Mr.. Dukes,
proved fruitless and DR.. Vile was
called. Mr.. Dukes met the doctor at
the door, and said that a gentleman
within who mad never been addicted
to drink, was seriously afflicted.
DIR. Vile made an examination of
the unconscious man. The conclusion
was that Mr.. Willard had either been
on protracted celebration, had been
drugged and robbed, or else struck
on the head by thugs and his proper
ty taken. A great bruise, almost a
cash, across the forehead, would seem
to corroborate the latter theory. His
clothes were neither torn nor bedrag-
gled, as would have been the case
had he been robbed in the street.
Every pocket was empty. Valuable
papers, which Mr.. Dukes says must
have been on his person, had disap-
peared. He carried but little money.
A large diamond ring which he wore
still made it's presence known by the
gold band on the finger, although the
setting had been removed. It may
be that the man was decoyed into a
room, then drugged and robbed. He
lay in semi-conscious condition dur
ing the whole afternoon"

GRAHAM FLOUR.
A Satisfactory Adjustment of a
Food Disagreement.

To THE EDITOR: If you will kindly
allow me space will tell the readers
of your valuable paper something
which will be of benefit to them, if
put into practice.
First, 1 will say; although Miss
Thomson and I did not agree upon
the use of the entire wheat or graham
flour, 1 fully endorse everything else
that she said or did in the culinary
department of the farmers institute,
but we did not separate without set
Ting our differences; I invited her
out to spend the night with me that
we might reason together. reasoned
with her like this: Wheat, more than
any other article of food, furnishes all
the elements required to nourish the
body, and in the right proportions.
Complaint is sometimes made
against this excellent and nourishing
food, that it is too harsh for delicate
stomachs. This complaint should
rather be made against careless mill
ers who put upon the market an article
ground from the lowest grade of
wheat, ,often,too, without any cleaning.
When wheat is properly prepared by
skillful miller and also by skillful
cook, very few will find any difficulty
in its digestion. Once accustomed to
the flour of the entire wheat, white
flour seems toasteless and insipid, and
none will return to it's use from choice.
The effect of this food in alleyiating
and curing constipation is something
that all should know. Indigestion, as
the most common ailment affecting
the human family, is the foundation
of every other disease. "A good di-
gestion turneth all to health" If we
will study the laws of health, also the
dietic habits of the American people,
we will not wonder why disease and
suffering is rife everywhere, neither
will we wonder why our children's
baby teeth are decaying and their

THE AIR sHIp.A
A Redwood Correspondent Touches
Up the Ballon.
From the Pioneer Press.

A great deal of interest is being
taken in an air ship model constructed
by Attorney M. M. Madigan. which he
has sent to the patent Office at Wash
ington and for which he expects to
secure a patent in reasonable time.
Mr.. Madigan has been engaged on
the construction of the air ship for
fifteen years or more, has now got it
completed to his entire satisfaction,
and is convinced that it will be an
agent of immense Importance as an
engine of war. Many experts in
mechanical contrivances have exam
ined the model air ship and they, with
the inventor, share the conviction, that
it will effect all the inventor claims
for it.
The air ship consists of three pieces;
a conically shaped balloon, propell-
ing attachment and a car. The pro-
pelling attachment is the piece in
which the ingenuity is displayed.
Madigan does not wish this described
meantime, but it may be said about it,
that the propeller is of such simplicity
that Altman, after seeing it work,
wonders that some child long ago had
not been able to solve the problem
which it accomplishes. 1t simply
takes advantage of natural forces in a
way that boys at play can be seen do
ing almost any day in summer.
The inventor asserts that moder-
ately sized air ship can carry thereby
five tons, can be as easily steered as
an ocean steamer, and can go right
against the wind as easily, if not more
easily, than an ordinary ocean steam
ship.
"What is supposed to be the chief
value of the air ship?" was asked.
cit may be used for any purpose of
locomotion, but is especially meant to
be utilized in war purposes"
"What do you expect it's velocity to
be-"
"From 10 to 500 miles an hour, ac-
cording to the state of the atmosphere" ."
"Can you fire a gun from the air
ship?"
"That is not anticipated. If you
get high enough and let ball fall
without firing it, the firing will not be
necessary. The anticipation is that
the projectiles will be of the dynamite
character, or some equally deadly ex-
plosive."
eff the Venezuelan affair should de-
velope into war with England, would
an air ship be equal to an American
war ship as against England?"
"Yes,to several dozens of war ships"
Madigan is waiting anxiously the
report from the patent office, and is
enthusiastically hopeful that the gov
eminent will take hold of the scheme.
All the scientific heads around here
who have seen the air ship are as
anxious and hopeful of the result as
the inventor is.

In the above article Mrs. Whittet
has pointed out the special advantages
of graham flour. Graham flour con-
tains more calcium phosphate, which
is an important bone food, than
white flour, and consequently it is a
valuable food for growing children
above ten months of age. Ladies
will certainly find the recipes given
very excellent and worthy of a trial by
them. MARY G.. THOMSON.

After partaking of supper pre-
pared mostly from entire wheat -four,
graham -four" Miss Thomson and I
began to agree virtually. She ex-
amined the -four and pronounced it of
superior quality. She attributed
much of her dislike for graham bread
to very inferior -four that is now put
upon the market For the benefit of
those who desire to begin using
graham flour, I will give a few recipes.
First, bread. Put one cake of
yeastfoam to soak in tepid wates, mot
hot.) Boil and mash finely four fair
sized potatoes, add two quarts of
luke warm water to the potatoes, also
the yeast cake. Now measure into
your mixing pan eight quarts of
graham -four, Use enough of this
flour to make thick batter. Set it in
a warm place and cover with blankets
and let rise over night. In the morn
ing warm the remainder of the -four
to about IS degrees. Salt to taste,
pour in the sponge and mix as quickly
and as little as possible. "Much
kneading will surely spoil the bread"
Set it where the temperature is about
70 degrees for about two hours or un-
til it has doubled it's bulk. Now
shape it into loaves with as little
handling as possible, then prepare
your oven. AS soon as it is the right
heat turn the loaves out on to the
kneading board; settle down careful
ly. Replace into baking pan and set
into oven immediately. eff your
loaves are light when set into the oven
they will surely fall" Bake about
one-fourth longer than common white
bread.
Second, "gems." Break one egg
into mixing bowl, beat it we'll, then
add two cups new milk, 3 cups graham
-four, and stir all together quickly
Drop into we'll buttered gem pan.
Bake in very hot oven. Omit salt in
anything which is made light with
egg.
Third, graham mush." Take thr ee
quarts boiling water, add three tea
spoonfuls salt. Keep the water boil
ing while stirring in enough -four to
make a thick batter. Have another
vessel OF boiling water to set this into
Pour little boiling on top of the
mush to prevent a crust forming.
Cover closely and keep it boiling
steady for at least two hours, the
longer the better. Serve with milk
and cream equal parts. If you wish
to preserve the health of your children
do not allow them to use sugar. Ora
ham mush is delicious fried, after be-
coming cold.

THE CUPID AND QUlVER.

In the Faraway country whore story folk
dwell,
In the beautiful sunshiny weather
think 'twoud be pleasant to wander, my
belle
OF course ! mean wander together
A demure little inn we should meet on the
road,
By the side of gay little river.
And whereof be the harm if we made our
abode
At the sign of the Cupid and Quiver2
Young couples would saunter along in the
shades,
While blithely the sign swung above them,
And wochcgone gallants and wcariful maids
Would find some nice person to love them.
Grim Clotho would wear such holiday look
We should find it not hard to forgive her
For Fate is a shephcrdcss, waving her crook
AT the sign of the Cupid and Culver.
A sweet, idle day dream, I wish it were true,
wish that the year were all summer.
And that Time were maiden as pretty as
you
Instead Of toothcss old hummer.
My fancies grow cold as the year onward flies,
And the chill winter winds make them
shivcr.
But they re warmed and rejoiccd when they
see in y, m yes

Quality

The difference in cost between using
Worcester SaIt-thc standard for dairy -and the
very cheapest is about one cent in every fifty bonndS
of butter made The chance of loss in expert
mcnting with the cheap salt would be from fifty
cents to one dollar, and possibly more. Is the
saving (?) of cent with chance of one dollar
loss a wise speculation? We leave the answer

today - Worcester
