Knocks Out KandivOhi

The supreme court has handed in a
decision, signed by Judge Canty,
knocking out the claims of the Randi
yohi county people to the state capitol
site. 1t seems that years ago tract
of land was set apart in that county
for capitol purposes, but the supreme
court holds that the legislature can go
about building a capitol without first
disposing of that land, given for the
purpose.

Dead Indians.

Five Indians, including Chief Wee
Sug, are dead at Malone's Point. on
Mile Laos Lake, and several others
are expected to die as result of drink
ing pain killer hair oil and other
preparations containing alcohol. The
Indian payment has been going on
there, and the Indians gorged them
selves with this stuff, which was
bought from Malone's trading post.
Indian riders are now securing every
part OF the reservation to bring the
band together at the Point, and seri-
GUS trouble may result, as the red
skins think Malone is to blame for the
deaths.

Finland is paradise for wOmen-at
least for those Of the sex who are desir-
GUS of being placed upon the same
plane as men socially, politically and
industrially. Nowhere else in the CIV
ilized world are the sexes so nearly upon
an equality as there, and the expert
ment has proved an unqualified success.
For more than 25 years the gymnasiums
have admitted both sexes, and in the
University of Helsingfors there are
now 200 women students. There are
two fiourishing clubs of women.
About 900 are now employed in post
offices. railroad and telegraph bureaus
and other departments of the public SER
sice. More than 900 are engaged as
teachers in schools of various grades,
and it is not uncommon to see among
their pupils young men of IS, who are
preparing for an academic or CONNER
cial career. At least 5000 women are
in business. Fifty-two of the 80 poor
houses have women superintendents,
and all the dairies are managed by
women.

Seattle, Aug. 23.-At $50 tonight,
the Al-Ki sailed for Dyea and Skaguay.
She carried 145 passengers and 600
tons of freight. Among the cattle on
board were % long horned steers.
Shortly after the collier Willamette
left for Dyea, the passengers organized
for police protection, the organization
being named the Willamette and Klon-
dixie Protective Society. Care was
taken to prevent fire and all suspicious
characters were watched. Before the
boat reached Dyea, eight suspected men
had been imprisoned.
Valentine scrip jumped in price to
$35 and $40 per acre, as the result OF
the rush to the Klondike gold fields.
Large blocks of scrip have been sold in
this city, the intention being to locate
property at Skaguay. Next Sunday
the steamer Queen leaves for st.
Michaels, with lumber. The A. S.
Kerry Lumber Company sends the
frame and lumber all fitted to build a
hotel there to accommodate $50 people.
The Queen will reach there in three
weeks.
Deputy Sheriff Calderhead has LET
ter from ex-Deputy Adam Baker, dated
Skaguay, August Z. He went on the
Rosalie. The passengers formed a
company to unload. Trouble ensued
by one man assuming to boss. The
miners drew guns and then took their
individual goods ashore.
The river, but mile from camp, is
800 feet wide and swift, and there is
continued loss of goods by horses fall
ing in the current. Packs must be cut
away to save the horses. Several
horses were drowned August and Z.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Downing, Hopkins company's Review
OF Trade.

Wheat sold at above 81 per bushel in
all Eastern markets during the past
week and there are prospects for much
higher prices in the future.
The marked and rapid advance in
values during the week must be at
tributed to legitimate influences.
Speculation played but minor part in
causing the advance. The export de-
mand has been the principal factor in
advancing values. fhe general posi-
ton Of supplies is considerably stronger
than week ago. The European re-
quirements for American wheat as
estimated by Bradstreet are now l92,-
600, 900 bushels as compared with pre-
vious estimate of 100, 600, 900 bushels
Estimates of American exportable sur
plus have been somewhat reduced ow-
ing to general unfavorable thrashing
returns from the spring wheat crop OF
the Northwest. In this connection
while America must be congratulated
upon having bounteous crop of wheat
with which to meet the increased ex-
port requirements, it must not be over
looked that reserves from previous
crops Of spring and winter wheat are
almost entirely exhausted. 1t will he
impossible to meet any such export de-
mand as estimated by European statis-
ticians and also establish normal re-
serves in America. Conditions of sup
ply and demand therefore apparently
warrant still higher values, but the
rapidity of the advances has momen-
tarily checked the export demand and
some reaction is probable. There are
several purely speculative conditions
that may upset expectations and result
in an unnatural advance Stocks OF
wheat are abnormally small. The Eu-
ropean shortage has encouraged large
speculative purchases. The advance
in values has reduced short selling.
The result is a congested market, es-
pecially for September deliveries. The
forward movement of the winter wheat
crop has been small considering the
large sales for export, and it is now too
late for any material accumulation OF
wheat in this market until after Sep
tember. We can only conclude after
careful consideration that while tenn
porary reaction is naturally to be ex-
pected, present values are fully war
ranted, higher values will obtain later
and that wheat should be bought on all
recessions.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-

Eustachian tube. When this tube gets inham-

hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever

MAIL SERVICE AGREEMENT
Semimonthly Trips to the
Klondike Region.
AGREE TO EXCHANGE OF MAILS
Canada's Proposition Formally Accept
ed by Acting POstmaster-G eneral on
Behalf the United States.

NhnadA+s fFopositiVh Hoh""hJ
ed by Acting Postmaster General on
Behalf the United States.
Washington, Aug. 2S. The Cana.
dian and the United States govern
ments have agreed to cooperate in aug
menting the postal facilities of the
Klondike region, and the result will
shortly be evidenced in a substantial
doubling of the mail service from the
coast into that district. Canada made
a proposition for exchange of mails at
Circle City and Dawson City, agreeing
to perform the service from Dawson
City to Dyea by means of contract OF
her own, with reimbursement to be
made by this government for its share
Of the service.
This differs from this country's prop
osition in that under the latter the
United States was to let the contract
and look to Canada for reimbursement
for the latter's share. The counter
scheme, however, is satisfactory to the
postoffice department here.
The Canadian service provides for
the exchange of mails at Fort Cudahy
and two other stations between Daw-
eon City and Dyea.. The exact route is
not out ined, but in all probability 1t
will strike off directly southwark from
Dawson City, which is on the British
side OF the line, down to Dyea. AT
present, the district gets the benefit oil
mails once month. The new arrange
ment will furnish an additional SER
vice, giving semi-monthly mails, the
trips probably being sandwiched be-
tween the dates designated in the pres
ent contract of the United States.
Canada's proposition for carrying
the mails one round trip month be-
tween Dawson City and Dyea was for
mally accepted this afternoon by Act
ing tmaster-GeneraI Shallenberger,
and the Canadian government notified
Of the action. In the communication,
this government is stated to be ready
to assume its share of the responsible
ity, and Canada is urged to put the
service into operation at the earliest
possible moment. Dyea, which is 100
miles above juneau, on Lynn canal,
and Dawson City will be declared inter-
national postal exchange offices. The
British mails will be carried by the
United States from Victoria to Dyea
The service will bring about the crea-
tion of postoffice at Dawson City, and
also at Fort Cudahy, Forty Mile, and
probably at other points, although
these mentioned are beyond Dawson
City. The service will be under the
immediate supervision of the Canadian
mounted police, and the carriers will
be equipped with dogs and sledges, and
will have Indian drivers The first
contract will be at least one year.
Wherever the British mails can be ex-
pedited by carrying them over the
present Circle City route between the
dates of the new service this will be
done.
Last April an order was issued by
the postoffice department. discontinuing
the steamboat mail service from Seattle
to Juneau, beginning April l3. This
order has now been modified to read
"omit service from that date to the
3lst of this month, when the perform
ance of the service is to be resumed. )"

The late william S. Groesbeck, OF
Cincinnati, never took another law case
after his defense of President Andrew
johnson. THE brilliant speech which
won that case,n says the Cincinnati
Commercial Tribune, proved the
mans remarkable will and intellectual
powers. He had been so i'll as to be
confined to his bed, and on the day OF
the trial, while lying in bed, he jotted
down on a sheet of foolscap paper the
main points of his defense. He was
driven to the tribunal in carriage,
unable to walk, and spoke extempore
for four hours and half. AT the close
article XI was voted upon, and the
president acquitted of the other arti-
cles. Since that time Mr.. Groesbeck
has lived a life of quiet and retirement
In 1872 he built Emhurst, noble
house OF superb proportions, command
ing a river view of unsurpassed beauty.
A bulletin (No. y OF the division of

securing almost an immediate coating
OF cobwebs to new wine bottles, giving
them the appearance of great age This
industry is carried on in little French
village in the department Of Loire and
near Philadelphia, where "Epeira vul-
garis" and "Nephila flumipes" are
raised in large quantities and sold to
the wine merchants at the rate of $40
per 100. This application of entomol-
ogy to industry is one which will not
be highly commended.
