! "People who are crazy with impa-
tience to get to the Alaskan gold fields
should possess their souls in patience, )"
said Colonel r. B. Latham, a Cali
fornian forty y-niner." "There is no
need to worry about getting to the
Klondike in hot haste. If one fails to
get there this season he can go next
year. There will be good diggings in
those valleys of the Yukon and its
tributaries for the next ten years, and
the prospectors who go in later need
not fear that all the gold will be taken
out before they get there By the
way, 1 remember that celebrated
Austrian scientist gravely asserted q
few years ago that the worlds gold
supply had about given out, and that
no fresh discoveries of the yellow
metal of any consequence need be
looked for. Since that prediction the
rich fields of South Africa have been
developed, and now comes the great
strike in Alaska, that bids fair to ex-

How Lightning Kills.

Last Saturday afternoon Will Pougn
tcoloredD was struck by lightning and
instantly killed while at work on Mr..
Z. M. Tharpe's plantation. The man
was plowing cotton when the bolt
struck him. The horse he was plow-
ing with was knocked down but not
seriously hurt. Pough'sstraw hat was
torn up, but there were no marks on
his body. He was very limp, however,
and it seemed that every bone in his
body had been uniointed. A piece of
the singletree was knocked off, but
there was no other damage to the plow
stock. Pough's wife was standing
about thirty yards away, and she was
knocked down and considerably
stunned by shock. When she got up
her husband and the horse were both
down. There were evidences that the
horse had stumbled along about fifteen
feet before he fell and carried the man
with him. Marion County (Ga.) Pa

The waterfalls of Sweden are about
to be put to work at smelling iron.
The idea is that of NJ. de Laval, the
inventor of the steam turbine, and
with him in the undertaking is NJ.
Nobel, of dynamite fame. Bog turf,
which is required also, is abundant in
the neighborhood of the iron works at
Bofors, which have been purchased.
The smelling in the new process is to
be done by electricity generated by
the water-power, and NJ. de Laval ex-
poets to manufacture rails, ship plates
and rolled joists at fourth of the
present cost, and to transform the
Swedish wilds about his works into an
important center of industry.

With heart full of hope and shouting

Where the great river winds to the sea,

Many man is digging to-day,

Following this the common council
declared the company'S franchise for

not expected, however, until next week.
During last night the police placed

holders of the company have vainly
tried to agree on a basis of settlement
of the trouble, the bone of contention
being a debt of $45, 600, which the bond

This summer the springs in the bot
tom of the basin seem to be stronger
than usual and there is a continual
overflow of several barrels of water a
day. The pond is three miles west of
the city on Sixth street. The banks
were walled up with stone, boat house
built and the pond put in excellent
shape by Mr.. Gage for his own gratifi-

The pond is 200 feet in length by rs in
width and ranges in depth from four
feet to fifteen The water is from
springs in the bottom and is clear.
