TWO THOUSAND GRAVES.
Only Beginning Of the CHASTITY Record
OF the klondyke.
Minneapolis Tribune.

There are said to be already 1000
graves in the iKlondyke gold region,
filed by poor fellows who went there
in search of wealth and met death
through starvation and other priva-
tion. Two thousand must be very
large percentage of the people who
have penetrated that region. 1t is
natural to expect a heavy mortality
in such a country, but two thousand
graves tell tale of horror.
1t is to be feared that before the
excitement and rush are over there
will be many times 1900 graves in
that bleak and desolate country.
Adventures are crowding in there
now beyond the means of the trans
portation companies to carry food to
supply them. 1t is, up in that arc
tic latitude, virtually the edge of
winter. BY the time those who start
now arrive the winter season will be
fairly upon them. Then there are
seven or eight months of arctic
night, during which nearly all COM
munication will be cut off from the
outside world. The supply of food
will surely be inadequate to last
until spring and the imagination
can easily coniure up picture Of
rough and famished men fighting
with each other like beasts for
enough snstenance to keep body and
soul together.

Clippings.

The following was taken from the
Klondyke "Lyre:"
Our esteemed townsman, Bud GRAY
ell, placed upon our desk yesterday a
handsomely shaped nugget. 1t weigh
ed 81 lbs. We have credited him
with three months subscription to
the "Lyre." We are pleased to see
that Mr.. Gravel, who is one of our
best citizens, is doing well. He is
one of a syndicate who expects TO buy
a quart OF whisky on Saturday night.
The high wind yesterday raised con-
siderable dust. Jake Luckenbill, who
was out on the road driving, says he
was nearly blinded by the dust. When
he got home he coughed up $3.50.
One OF our greatest needs is a street
sprinkler
Dawson Pettibone has finished his
new well In the rear of his kitchen.
1t now has ii feet Of ice water in il.
lie also washed over $S5, 900 worth of
gold dust while digging.
A subscription is being raise d by
Widow Larklns, who lost her pig one
day last week. 1t was fastened In
the sly during rain storm. The
water coming down over the hill wash
ed a quantity Of gold dust into the
pen aud choked it to death
While fishing in the river yesterday
Ike Sigman struck Il snag with his
boat. Investigating, it proved to be
a 600 pound nugget. He will place it
in his front yard for flower stand.
Bill Jacobs made big strike yes
tefday on the Big Juniper. He struck
plenty of gold at three feet, but as the
Jumps were too big to carry, he closed
up the hole and went farther up the
creek to stake another claim. Pitts

BETTER THAN GOLD
Cure is the Waverly Tank Cure for
for Jays.

We will wager that Waverly has
the most original way Of taking care
of her unruly citizens of any town
in the State.
On the lot just in the rear of the
depot in that famous village is an
iron tank about ten feet in diameter.
In the top of the tank is hole about
eighteen inches in diameter, or just
about large enough to shove a man
through. As the tank is turned
over ON its side it is no hard matter
for gang of able bodied men to
shove man through this hole and
into the tank Once inside the fun
begins Half dozen men will roll
the tank around over the lot while
another crowd will play tune on it
with rocks and clubs, causing a most
hideous din. The noise on the out
side is earsplitting but what the
poor inmate suffers must be plen-
ty. There is no way for him to get
out while the tank is being rolled
around and if he is under the inhu-
ence of Waverly tangle foot as is us
ually the case, it is struggle all
the time to keep from standing on
his head. Thursday new citizen
arrived in Waverly in the person of
Dump Sherman, shanty boater. On
the evening of his arrival he imbibed
pretty freely and got little noisy.
The tank gang thought that he
might as well be initiated then as any
time so they put him under arrest
(2) and walked him to the tank. AT
ter struggle OF few minutes
Dump was dumped into the tank
and the fun begun. Owing to the
resistance he had offered in taking
his medicine the tank was given a
few extra rolls around the lot and
an extra large gang played on the
tank with clubs. Finally he was al
lowed to pull himself out Of his pris-
on and he straightway made for
home perfectly sober and wiser
and better man.-Parkersburg Jour

Young Man Work.

Bob Burdette rang the bell when
he said There are young men who
do not work, young men who make
a living by sucking the end of a
cane; whose entire mental develop.
ment is insufficient to tell them
which side Of the a postage stamp
to lick; young men who can tie
necktie in eleven different knots and
never lay wrinkle in it, and then
they would get into West Hill
street car to go to Chicago; who can
spend more money in day than you
can earn in a month, who will go to
the sheriff's to buy postal card
and apply at the office of the street
commissioner for marriage license.
But the world is not proud of them.
1t does not know their name even; it
simply speaks of them as old Scan
SOS boys. Nobody likes them, no
body hates them. the great busy
world doesn't even know they are
there, and at the great day of resur-
rection, if they do not appear at the
trumpet, and they certainly will not
unless somebody tells them what it
Is for and what to do, / don't think
Gabriel will miss them or notice
their absence, and they will not be
sent for nor disturbed. Things will
go on just as well without them.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous lin
ing OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which Is nothing but an innamed con-
dition OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of deafness Caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

PAYNE TAKES A GLOOMY VIEW.
Republican Politician Dees Not Think
Prosperity ut Hand.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, July 3l.-Hen-
ry G. Payne, who was Mark Hanna's
assistant in conducting McKinley's
campaign, does not believe that the
advance agent of prosperity has
booked his attraction in Milwaukee
as yet. He takes gloomy view of
present conditions here, and cannot
see any rainbow. In speaking about
the situation to-day he said:
Il wonder if it is really true that
times have improved. l am some
times led to doubt the accuracy of
the information of those who declare
that business is better than it was
six months ago. The reason for this
is the large number of applications
for work that come to my notice ev-
cry day. The applicants have many
hard-luck stories to tell. They say
they have been out of work for
long time, and are willing to do any
kind of labor that is offered or that
they can obtain. Most of these men
out of work are residents of Milwau-
kee and the heads of families. L
wish something could be done for
them"

Is Life Worth Living?

Ii there is an individual on earth
who is excusable for thus interroga-
ting himself, it is the unhappy NOR
tai who suffers from malaria in one Of
its diabolical forms. This is no difficult
conundrum, however. Life is worth
living by any man or woman who en-
joys good health, and is not harrassed
by reproachful conscience. The
malaral scourge, heavily laid on, is
a terrible one for the poor sufferer to
endure. A series of freezings, scorch-
inge and sweats-the last leaving one
as limp and as strengthless as a dish
rag, are hard indeed, recurring as they
do with flendish regularity. Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters is the world
wide known preventive and curative
of this class of maladies, either in the
form of ague and fever, bilious remit
tent, dumb ague and ague cake. Used
with persistence they will, rely upon
it, eradicate disease from the system.
They also conquer rheumatism, kid
ney and bladder complaints, nervous
ness, dyspepsia, liver complaint and
constipation, and renew falling
strength.

What the Wise Bachelor Says.

Women always pretend that they
can't deny their husbands anything.
A realist is man who would paint
an angel with side whiskers and no
feathers.
The older and more sensible wo-
man gets, the more she wishes she was
young and silly.
A fat woman can never think badly
of man after he has once told her
she looks delicate.
A woman can never resist the
temptation to let on to other women
that her husband tells her all about
the inside of his business.
Probably the real truth of the mat
ter is that Joseph had got one of
the new red and green golf coats
and was showing off before the 9TH
ers.

WORRIED BY WEALTH.

William Former, the old gentle

Gently been poured in almost faster
than he could count it, has his pc
culiarities. If he has more than the
average man he can well afford them,
for his income averages about 1920
a day. He says that he has more
money than he wants, and this is
probably true, for he was wealthy
before he received penny from the
oil.
In what was to him a small trans
action recently he received $4,000
for his share of the proceeds of a
certain deal. He was handed check
for the amount, but reached for it
with seeming reluctance as he re-
marked that he had no use for it,
whatever.
"Just leave it with me-" said the
lady of the house where the deal
was conshmmated, II can take care
of it, and will be glad to relieve you
of such burden"
But the old gentleman put the
check in his pocket with peculiar
smile, and probably no American
eagle therein represented will ever
stray far from the place which it
now occupies.
