Yukon Gold fields.

A dispatch from Montreal, April %
says that among the petitions presented
to the Dominion parliament is some
what remarkable one asking for the
incorporation of the British Yukon
Chartered company, with very great
powers. The petition is remarkable in
that it is signed by the duke of Teck
and about forty member of the British
house of commons. bankers and CAPT
talists of the United Kingdom, and also
in that it practically offers to reproduce
in Canada the British South Africa
Chartered company. The company
proposes to construct a line of railway
from the Lynn canal between the 13ith
and both parallel of longitude, over
the White Pass to the head center of
the Yukon river, and pace a fleet of
steamboats, on the river, to build a
branch line of railway, to establish tel
egraph and telephone lines, control
mining and carry on almost any kind
of business it p,eases. 1t also offers to
administer the affairs of the country
subject to conditions to be prescribed
by the Dominion government.

The Best Remedy for Rheumatism

J
Mr.. James Rowland of this village,
states that for twenty-five years his
wife has been sufferer from rheuma-
tism. A few nights ago she was in
such pain that she was nearly crazy.
She sent Mr.. Rowland for the doctor,
but he had read of Chamberlain Pain
Balm and instead of going for the ply
stefan he went 10 the store and secured
a bottle of it. His wife did not approve
of Mr.. Rowland's purchase at first, but
nevertheless applied the balm thor
oughly and in hours time was able to
go to sleep. She now applies it when
ever she feels an ache or a pain ard
finds that it always gives relief, He
says that no medicine which she had
used ever did her as much good. The

they found thirty Spanish soldiers still

fully 900 Christian EndvavOr socie-

OF nearly 100000 This is an increase
OF about 5000 societies during the

There are now 4, 4S2 Christian En-
deavor societies in Great Britain.
Ireland now reports 15H Christian
Endeavor societies, Ulster county hav-
ing ll2 socities.
So far three delegates from India
and two from Australia are on the
way to the San Francisco convention.
Mexico now contains 100 Christian
Endeavor societies, with 2,O47 men,
bers. Twenty eight of these are
Junior soc.eJles, with 469 mem ers.
Last We ar there were only seven Junior
societies in the country.
The first society OF Christian En-
deavor was established February 2,
1881, at Portsmouth, Me-, by Rev.
Francis E. Clark, with about twenty
mem bers. The present membership
shows an increase that has never been
equaled in any movement In the world ;

The grocer stated that the money
saved would be ample to provide all
the goods enumerated. There are, no
doubt, many men, who spend 20 cents
day, or more, for liquor, whose
families would feel that the millen-
MUM was near if they could only have
one half of this bill of necessities
stored in their kitchen or cellars.
Many a merchant who with a moderate
profit on goods enough to properly sup
ply those who would naturally buy OF
him, does dull business and is obliged
10 credit where he knows there is dan
ger of loss, while the saloon near by
gathers in the dollars of the heads of
families.
