The Method of a Great Treat
ment for Weakness of Men.
Which Cured. Him AFTER Everything

Painful diseases are bad enough, but when
man is slowly wasting away with nervous
weakness, the mental forbodings are ten times
worse than the most severe pain. There is
no let up to the mental suffering day or night.
Sleep is almost impossible and under such a
strain men are scarcely responsible for what
they do. For years the writer rolled and
tossed on the troubled sea of xual weakness
until it was question whether he had not

all his troubles. But provdential inspira-
tion came to his aid in the shape of combi-
nation Of medicines that not only completely
restored the general health, but enlarged his
weak and emaciated parts to natural size and
vigor, and he now declares that any man who

The Omaha Bee of July 30th says ::
DEGREES of sale Of the Union Pacific
railway under the foreclosure proceed!
ings instituted against it by the United
States were passed upon by Judge
Walter Sanborn in United States court
here yesterday. There was 10 objection
to the entrance of the Ames- Dexter
decree, and after few corrections had
been made in the printed copy of the
decree, it was passed upon by the court.
The entrance of the governments
decree drew forth a vigorous debate
between Ex-Governor Hoadey, special
counsel for the United States, and Wins
low S. Pierce, counsel for the reorganiza-
tion committee. The debate was upon
the right of the court to reserve to the
United States all rights of the govern
ment not expressly stated in the decree
1t was decided in favor of the governs
ment. The upset price under the first
mortgage will be $50,637, ,455. Judge
William ID. Cornish of st. Paul will act
as special master in the matter. He will
sell the main line, the 1904 miles of
road from Council Bluffs to Ogden, and
its immediate branches, in this city.
The date of sale will not be fixed until
twenty days shall have expired, the
court giving that much time to the
Union Pacific Railway company to re-
deem the property.

Spain wants war with the United
States because it will help her to let 60
of Cuba. This seems a little curious
statement but it seems to be the button
from the crucible of Spanish diplomacy.
The Spanish are proud people, the
nations finances are about exhausted,
the insurgents are stronger and daily
becoming more bold. Senior Conovas
sees plainly that he cannot subdue the
Cubans, but to surrender to a small
band Of natives, or abandon the contest
on the island, would be so exasperating
to the people that he would be deposed
and revolution would likely ensue.
The premier sees but one way out OF
the dilemma, resist the demands of the
United States and make them pretext
for declaring war This would bring the
opposing factions in Spain together,an a
wave of patriotism would sweep over
the country and Spain would be united
OF course the Spanish government could
have no idea of conquering this coun.
try, but could surrender by acceding to
the demands of Uncle Sam, let Cuba GO
and save her disgrace by surrenderine
to. strong power, instead of weak
one, which is nevertheless too strons
for Spain to overcome. And thus Spain
will GO to war with the United States tc
make peace at home and Uncle Sam
must accommodate her.

The Alaska Boundary Line.

A Washington dispatch of July 3lst
says: Nothing can be done more than
already has been done toward marking
the boundary line between Alaska and
the British possession along the l4lst
meridian until the senate passes upon
the boundary treaty now before it.
There is, however, now doubt of the
location of the line along this meridian
and most people in the locality know
where it is. The demarcation work was
superintended by General Dufield in
charge of the coast and geodetic survey,
on behalf of the United States. General
Duffield has spent considerable time in
Alaska. He express the opinion that a
railroad can easily be constructed from
Taku inlet to the Klondyke gold fields
and believes the enterprise well worth
undertaking.
"The gold,' said General Duffield in
discussing the question, "has been
ground out of the quartz by the pressure
of the glaciers which lie and move along
the courses of the stream, exerting q
tremendous pressure. This force is
present to a more appreciable extent in
Alaska than elsewhere and l believe
that as consequence more placer gold
will be found in that region than i'll any
other part Of the world"
General Duffield thinks the golt
hunters on the American side have
made the mistake of prospecting the
large streams instead of the small ones
"When gold is precipitated," he said
at sinks 1t does not float far dowr
stream. 1t is, therefore, to be looked
for along tie small creeks and about tht
headwaters of the larger tributaries o
the Yukon There is" lie added, "n'
reason why as rich finds may not b,
made on the American side of the lin,
as in the Klondyke district"

Rich Gold Discoveries in Peru.

A San Francisco dispatch Of July oath
says: Recent advices from Peru. which
have been confirmed by C. DE Morauda,
petroleum magnate now in this city,
states that the wonderful strikes re-
ported from the Klond"ke region have
been totally eclipsed by fabulous dis
coveries Of gold in the South American
republic. In an interview Mr.. De
Morauda says that there is no longer
any doubt that the famous Inka gold
fields which have been considered as
myths among the intelligent people OF
Peru have at last been discovered. The
location ofthe newly discovered bonanza
is in the department of Cuzcob and
Pana in the eastern border of the coun-
try which have long been famous fcr
their richness in precious metals
Among the successful prospectors in this
new field is Californian named Har.
rison, who left San Francisco six years
ago in search Of petroleum and pene'
trated into the interior. In June last
he took out Of one of his many claims
279 pounds Of gold, and many English
men arc reported TO have been equally
lucky.

Leon Godchsu, the owner Of the
seven sugar plantations in Louisiana,
and the largest producer in the United
States, has telegraphed to the manager
of his several places to advance the
wages of all field labor l64 per cent the
advance to commence August /, in con-
sequence, he says, of the passage Of the
Dingley tariff bill. In sugar circles the
opinion is general that this advance will
be conceded by all the planters to labor
employed in sugar culture or manufac-
ture. The skilled labor employed in
the sugar houses or reineries are paid
according to the price the sugar COM
mands, and will get an increase in
wages of from 90 to 80 per cent as com.
pared with last year.

The monument of General John A
Logan, was unveiled in Chicago Thurs
day of last week. 1t was the anhiver-
sary of the battle of Atlanta, fought in
1864, in which Logan distinguished
himself, and reached the summit of his
military fame. 1t has been said that
republics are ungrateful," but when
we come to consider the enormous pen
sions which are paid to the survivors
of the war, and the many comfortable
homes erected for their comfort all over
this broad land, the many monuments
of stone and bronze which mark the
last resting place of our heroic defend
ers, al exception must be made, Amer.
ica is not ungrateful.

The ninth annual convention of the
Transmississippi commercial congress,
which was held at Salt Lake City from
July l4th to 18th inclusive, was repre-
sented by all the states and territories
west of the Mississippi river. The OBJ
ject Of this congress is to discuss the
different matters of interest to the west,
with view to the procuring of favor
able legislation upon measures which
are deemed of Importance to the nation
at large, and more particularly to that
portion which has been too much
neglected in the past, which has been
aptly described as "The Mississippi and
beyond" To promote business inter
ests, to cultivate fraternal relations, and
spirit of cooperation in all that per-
talns to the building up of the western
region, these are the central objects of
the congress without regard to party bias
or afliliation. Reference is made to this
important gathering at this time not as
a matter of recent happening, but be.
cause their speeches and actions are all
to be published, and the concensus of
opinion of such representative body OF
men cannot fail to be very interesting
and instructive reading.

Prospective gold seekers in the north

Prospective gold seekers in the north
are aroused over the action of the
Canadian government in collecting a
duty at Victoria or Dyea on every
miners outfit from the United States.
A mass meeting has been called by the
merchants and outfitters in this city to
outline plans for retaliatory action.
The idea is that this action Of the
Victoria collector is not taken in the
interests of collecting revenue, but to
try 20 compel parties to buy their out
fits in Victoria. The secretary of the
treasury will be memorialized and re-
quested to withdraw his order making
Dyea support of entry. 1t was so de-
signated, it is asserted, for the purpose
of permitting British steamers to land
freight and passengers there.

A young man by the name of Marconi

A young man by the name of Marconi
has discoyered a method of telegraphing
without wires. In speaking of his dis
coyery he says: II made the discovery
almost by accident. l had been study
ing electrical phenomena three years,
when two years ago l found that by
putting Heroes radiator to the earth,
connecting it with q wire extended
vertically in the air and repeating the
process with modified Brambly re-
ceiver, a current could be transmitted
about 100 yards without connecting the
wires. Then 1 found that without in
creasing the battery power, but by
simply increasing the height of the
vertical were, the influence of the
instrument extended over a distance
increasing in geometrical ratio to the
increased height of the wire"

&The coal strike in the east is still on,
but it is predicted that the end is not far
off. The De Armitt mines are still the
key to the situation, and according to
the latest advices twenty of The miners
were persuaded to quit work on the 4th.
This SO reduces the force at work in
those mines that only few car loads
each day are mined, and President
Dolan Is confident that the strikers will
succeed. The owners and operators
have had meeting, and have agreed
upon n uniform rate and committee
appointed to visit all the mines whose
managers haye not yet signed the uni
formity compact, and it is not expected
that there will he any difficulty in OBJ
tanning their signatures. When this is
done (Which is not expected to be COM
plete before the end of the month), the
operators will then be ready to confer
with the miners about settlement of
the strike. The miners have thus far
restrained themselves from committing
any act of violence, and their peaceful
attitude, while it has been a source of
wonder, has gained them the sympathy
of the country at large. s.,

1t is said that Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson will put in his time for annual
vacation in travelling through Colorado,
Wyoming, South Dakota, Utah and
Montana. His object is to study the
facilities for raising horses suitable for
the cavalry, not only Of this country
but of Europe There is a general i'm
preston that the horses raised on the
western plains and mountain ranges
are too small for the purpose. We in
cline to the opinion that in this respect
there is a surprise in store for>our Sec
retary when he comes to travel through
this country, where instead of finding
the little cayuse ponies of 20 years ago,
he will now find whole bands of horses
which will average a thousand pounds
each. They would make the very best
cavalry horses in the world, having all
the requisites of size, strength, speed and
bottom. The next question which sug-
gests itself to our mind is have they got
any soldiers oyer in Europe who can
ride our horses. Secretary Wilson will
also look over the different sections OF
the country with a view of seeing what
can be done to develop the sugar beet
industry We are glad to learn that
our secretary takes an interest in these
matters for they are the very things in
which we of the Black Hills may claim
to be we'll 'hooked up."
