ESCAPE WAS MIRACULOUS.
Arthur Saunders Thrilling Escape in
the Marvine Mine.

Arthur Saunders, employed as a la
borer in the Marvine mine had an ex-
perience yesterday that he is not like
ly to forget for many a day. He was
seated in the chamber in which he
works waiting the coming of q car
when a large piece of coal weighing a
ton and half fell upon him.
Workmen removed him from beneath
the mass as quickly as possible and
were surprised when they found he
was not dead. He was removed to his
home on Bright avenue, where he was
examined by physician. There was
not the slightest outward trace Of an
injury but it is feared that Mr.. Saun-
ders is seriously hurt internally.

ONE OF Two WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine,
and as such it is not liable TO any form
of disease except by one of two ways.
The first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second way is from
careless local treatment of other dis
eases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. So the womb, like the bladder,
was created for one purpose, and if not
doctored too much is not liable to weak
ness or disease, except in rare cases. 1t
is situated back of and very close TO the
bladder, therefore any pain, disease or
inconvenience manifested in the kid
neys, back, bladder or urinary passage
is often, by mistake. attributed to female
weakness or womb trouble of some sort
The error is easily made and may be
easily avoided. To find out correctly,
set your urine aside for twenty.four
hours; sediment or settling indicates
kidney or bladder trouble. The mild
and the extraordinary effects of DR.
Kilmer's Swamp Root, the greatest kid
ney and bladder remedy, is soon real
lied. If you need a medicine you should
have the best. At druggists 80 cents
and 81 90. You may have sample bot
tie and pamphlet, both sent free by

The Thorp party, whose expedition has
been mentioned in THE HERALD, have
been having very hard time trying to
get their cattle and outfits over the Dal-
ton route. A blizzard caught them jus,
as they were crossing the summit. So
heavy was the snow that Q man could
not see the head OF the horse he was
leading. tDuring the storm, fodder for the
cattle ran short, and -four, rice and corn
meal WAS fed to the animals. Willis
Thorp then decided to turn back. Young
Thorp refused to turn back with his ia
Their and the bulk OF the expedition. He
picked eighteen horses and went forward,
determined to push through. Before he
got over the snow, which was up to his
horses stomacha, he lost ten OF the ami
mails. The last heard OF the young man
he WAS pushing ahead with the remain
ing eight horses.

right. We have enough money lett to
pay for everything and perhaps a little
more. 1t has been impossible for me to
keep a correct account Of everything l
have paid out. 1t took lots OF money to
buy horses and horse feed. Most every
one on the trail is broke. We had $50
pounds Of goods stolen on the lake. Most
of it was flour; one sack OF bacon and
all of our rice. But we are fixed for a
year yet. l caught one fellow who stole
blankets out OF our tent. had him ar
rested and got our blankets back. He
was only sent out of the territory for it.
| met him later on in the day and fixed
him plenty. There are lots of boats 60
ing down and lots of people still packing
but most of those who are on the trail are
building cabins and are preparing for the
winter. II you want to write 10 me you
can send the letter to Dawson as that is

From Dick McDaniels.

The following letter to Mr.. W. L..
Steinweg from Dick McDaniels was dated
at Lake Bennett. Oct. 18th. He says:
"After 80 long time We have reached
Lake Bennett we'll and in good shape ex-
cepting we had 500 to 900 pounds OF gro.
ceries, one pair OF blankets, wooden goods,
underwear and socks stolen from US. We
will sail tomorrow II the weather permits.
This has been much more expensive
trip than any of US anticipated. l am
down to $50 but some Of our party have
not dollar left. Norby. Jungst and
Krober are travelling with John Miller
and me. John is all right to travel with
and very good worker. We five have
owned % head of horses on the trail; all
have died excepting seven, which we
sold to-day for $l20. Feed has been very
high-as much as $75 per sack, but we
never paid more than $25 per sack. Our
chances seem favorable to getting
through, although great many travellers
are located along the trail for the winter.
We will soon start, so will close. With
regards to all, f. McDANIELs.

The report of the first months school
work has been made by Superintendent

not only to him but to every person in
North Yakima who is interested In
school matters. The work OF the schools
has been 80 satisfactory that many par
ents living in neighboring districts are
sending their children to the city schools,
and and large number OF families have
moved into town to give their boys and
girls the full benefit. The agreement of
the trustees at their last meeting to re-
fund portion of the tuition money at
the end OF the year. II possible, will prob
ably be the cause Of making still other
additions to the present list OF scholars.
The report is as follows and the present
enrolment shows an increase of more
than 40 per cent over the first days at
tendance and nearly 100 per cent over
the first days attendance last year:
