The young married couple who are crown
ed with good health are really a king and
queen. They are possessed of an armor that
enables them to withstand all the hardships
and mBfortunes of life. Accidents aside,
the will live long, happy lives of mutual
helpfulness, and they will be blessed with
amiable, healthy children. They will sit
together in the twilight of old age and look
back without regret over a mutually happy,
helpful, useful, successful cotipanionship.
There are thousands of young couples
every day who start welded life with but
one drawback. --one or the other, or both,
suffer from i'll -health. There can be no true
welded happiness that is overshadowed by
the black cloud of physical suffering. The
man who contemplates matrimony, and re-
alizes that through overwork or worry or
neglect, he is suffering from i'll health,
should take the proper steps to remedy it
before he assumes the responsibilities of
husband. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is the best of all medicines for men
who have neglected their health. 1t makes

Mining Operations Established IN Cecil
County to Get the Yellow Metal.
Elkton, Nd, Oct. l4.-Much excite
ment has been caused in Northern Cecil
county by the discovery OF gold near
Oakwuod. A few weeks ago Richard
West and W. W. Davis of Port Deposit
purchased two properties about Oak
wood. They were those of q. A. Grubb,
for which 81, 700 was paid, and that of
William Dorsey. for 81, 500. Since then
james E. Haines has joined Messrs.
West and Davis and it is their in
tention to engage in mining on their
properties as soon rs possible.
Samples of the flint rock have been
assayed and the result shows that it
carries from S4 to $40 in gold per ton.
Philadelphia parties have interested
themselves in the matter, and not only
will abundant capital be furnished for
development, but machinery necessary
Tor handling the rock, including con-
oentrator, will he set up at the mine.
The supply OF gold carrying rock in

valuable mineral has set the country

in Cecil and Hartford counties have for
years been reducing their gold carrying
rock to powder and shipping it by the
ton to potteries in Trenton, N, j.,
where it ia converted into chinaware.
The party operating the flint mill
nearest the properties on which gold
has been discovered is B. Gilpin Smith.
Tho properties in question are on what
are known as the Pilottown ann Rock
Springs roads. Facilities for shipping
are goon, the Columbia and Fort De-
posit railroad being within easy access.
Years ago Rock Springs was noted as IA

and Philadelphia, who drank of the
waters that dubbed out of the rock
and also used them for external pur.

NOW EMPEROR OF KOREA
Transition Of That Country From a
Kingdom to an Empire.
CHANGE EFFECTED LAST FRIDAY
Final Stroke of Progressive
Party.
ANNOUNCEMENT MADE AT WASHINGTON


Washington, Oct. 10. Tho Korean
legation received an official cable to day,
stating:
'Ths King has proclaimed himself
Emperor from this date, October 18th,
1897"
The transition which Korea makes
to-day, from a kingdom to an empire,
is felt to have considerable Significance
in Oriental affairs, although the cable
to the legation gives no details of the
change and the officials here are with
out any information rs to the causes
leading up TO it. II is understood, how
ever, to he part of the progressive
policy on which Korea has embarked,
following the lead of japan and China.
The King is member of the Progress
sive party. and shares the wish of that
party to bring Korea up to modern
standards. The opposition element is
known as the Conservative party, and
is DESTROYS OF preserving the old tradi-
tions and governmental system OF the
country. Mr.. Sob, who recently died
here, was the Leading figure Of the
Progressive element, while the Korean
Minister is member of the Conserva-
tive party. The last step taken by tho
King, in proclaiming himself Emperor,
is regarded as the final stroke OF the
Progressive element.
The change also has another aspect.
China long has asserted a Huzerainty
over Korea, and il was this claim that
brought on the China Japan war.
While the claim ia dormant, yet China
has never relnquished what she has
regarded as a hereditary sovereignty
over Koren. With the latter country aa
abingdon. some apparent assent waH
given to the claim OF an imperial
authority in China, hut Korea, herself,
advancing TO the rank of az empire,
throws off every evidence of dependence
on any outside power. This independ-
ence would apply also TO japan and
| Russia, which have been seen to gain
| influence and control in Korea, owing
to that country's extensive coast line
and valuable harbors on the North
| Pacific. 10 Russia in particular the
| ACQUISITION of Rorea's Pacific coast line
has been regarded as of great strategic
| importance, as Russia'H present ports
on tho Pacific are closed by Ice during
| the winter, while those of Korea are
| omen the year round. The advances
made by Russia and Japan in Korea
| have led 10 much conflict between the
two countries, the last move being
protest by Japan against the assign
nent OF Russian officers to drill the
Korean army. With Korea an empire,
it is felt that she gives unmistakaole
evidence to other aspiring nations that
she has no intention of becoming alb
sorbed hy or a petty Kingdom of any
other empire, but will exercise imperial
authority herself.

OF course can't volich for This bill, but
lithink it possible. Aunt louisa strongest
emotion is her patriotism. When she saw
the queen at the time of the jubilee she
saluted her by waving the ! american iIag 1t
her, and some people, frivolous people, do
not hestateto say that the queen winked in
recognition. Aunt Louisa believes that this
is the greatest country in the world, that it's
fine to be an American. and while she is
civil to the English, she doesn't forget that
little affair Of a few years ago when orr
fighting forefathers appreciated the fit of
the backs of their red coats.
If anything can console anybody for
leaving this world it must he having Aunt
Louisa NJ the funeral. She is a ellspring
of sympathy and then she is so perfectly
beautiful about remembering the virtues of
the dead l hope that Aunt Louisa will
never die. In these DAYS. when electricity
does so much, why can't she be kept alive
forever? We all want to have her ut our
funerals, and none of us want to 90 to hers.
When that sad day comes, if come il must,
be sure that there will be many tears Of real
love shed for her, who never forgot those in
want and who catered to the comfort and
happiness of many a little child. Here's
long life and good health TO Aunt Louisa
God bless her Bah.

The dredgo Pacific, owned by the
Pacific Dredging Co., had another ner-
row escape from being run down on
Thursday oteninE whilo lying OF
Cherry island Flats. The Steamship
Cabrsl ran into the rores which held
the ttredee at anchor aud cut her loose
and grazed tho side OF the dredge. Tbs
escape of this dredge from being cut in
two is probably due to tho fact that
the anchor ropes had something to do
with the steering off OF the vessel.
