Metucheh, N. j., is noted for the
number of intellectual people living
there. That, however, did not prevent
its becoming the prey of burglars and
midnight robbers. Night after night
the thieves visited citizens houses and
plundered them till veritable reign of
terror began. Nobody knew when his
turn would come. Watchdogs, burglar
alarms, pistols and clubs were kept
handy and doors and windows were
triple barred. Few remained out late at
night unless they had urgent business.
Still the robberies continued. Detectives
took the, case up and cracked their
brains over it in despair. They could
find out nothing. Among the intellec-
tual inhabitants of Metuchen there was
one who did not seem to be affected by
the general panic. She was girl law
yer, Miss Mary Board. She seemed to
have business at night in various parts
OF the town. She wandered hither and
thither and said not a word to anybody
concerning the burglars. In truth she
appeared not to know there were any
burglars in Metuchen. But one morn
ing Miss Board stepped into the county
prosecutors office and laid before him
some facts which revealed what the
young woman had been about for two
weeks. She had been quietly doing de-
tective work on her own account and
had tracked the thieves and discovered
them beyond doubt Acting on the in
formation she gave them, the authori-
ties arrested the guilty men. 1t will
now be some time before they steal any
thing again.

caused him to be in most miserable
condition. 1t was undoubtedly a bad
case OF la grippe and recognizing it as
dangerous he took immediate steps to
bring about speedy cure. From the
advertisement a. OF Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and the many good recon-
mendations included therein, we con-
cluded to make first trial of the
medicine. To say that it was satisfac-
tory in it's results, is putting it very
mildly, indeed. It acted like magic
and the result was a speedy and per-

Jones & Son, Cowden, ILL.,, in speaking
OF Dr. Kings New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with

serious that physicians at Cowden and
Pana could do nothing for her. It
seemed to develop into Hasty Con-
sumption. Having DR.. Kings New
Discovery in store, and selling lots of
it, he took a bottle home, and to the
surprise of all she began to get better
from first dose, and half dozen dollar
bottles cured her sound and we'll. DR..

to do this good work. Try it. Free

The Route Through Dyea.

Human nature can show itself toler.
ably selfish when it sets its head to it,
as the course Of some shortsighted ship
ping people on our Pacific coast testifies.
The Klondike gold mines are in Ca
madam territory. The land route to the
mines, after a narrow strip of Alaskan
territory has been crossed, lies through
British ground. Canada has an alien
labor law which would seriously inter-
fere with the American miners who are
digging the gold out of her soil if she
chose to put it in force. She has not
done So She has also the right to
royalty on the gold taken by aliens from
her soil and spent almost altogether out
side of Canada. At the same time near
ly all the miners on the Klondike are
citizens of the United States.
Canada wishes to land her miners
that go to the Klondike, with their sup
plies, at Dyea, on our Alaskan coast.
They could make time by shipping
from Victoria, B.. G., and steaming d.
rect to Dyea and there unloading passen-
gers and supplies. crossing the Alaskan
strip, and, again entering British terri
tory, pursue their way northward
through Chilkoot pass. The Canadian
government, therefore, asked the United
States government as a favor that Gus
toms officials might travel on the Ca
madam steamers from Victoria to Dyea
direct and list the goods carried, so that
there might be no violation of the Unit
ed States tariff law. Juneau, where the
steamers usually landed, is an Ameri-
can port of entry where our customs
officers are regularly stationed.
The United States government cour-
teously responded to this reasonable re-
quest by making Dyea itself port
of entry and placing officials there to
examine the goods conveyed by the Ca
madam miners. Thereupon, however,
some of our own Pacific coast carrying
companies complained bitterly because
the favor was granted to the Canadians,
claiming that this would divert trade
from themselves. Considering that every
American vessel bound for Alaska has
now offered to it nc least four times the
load it can carry, considering also how
courteous Canada has been to our miners
upon her territory, at least up to this
time, the Pacific shipping people show
themselves dogs in the manager.

1t is not admissible to plant shells merely to
destroy life and without other design than
that OF depriving your enemy of q few men
without materially injuring him..
It is admissible to plant torpedoes in n river
or harbor, because they drive off blockading
or attacking fleets. =
AS Generals Rains and Longstreet differ In
this matter, the inferior in rank should give
way, or, it he prefers it, he may be assigned
to the river defenses where such things are
clearly admissible.
"The truth is that the torpedoes at
Yorktown were planted by the Confed-
crates a night or two before they left
the works. continued General Porter,
after reviewing the statement of Rains,
in the official records, land they were
put there with the evident intention Of
checking rush by my soldiers. This is
shown by the fact that some Of my SOL
diers had advanced a day or two before
the evacuation nearer to Y Yorktown than
the ground where the torpedoes were
encountered on the 18th, and they found
none. They We're placed On roads and
near roads and other most accessible
places for our men to advance where
they would do harm ip case of rush
upon the retreating Confederates. There
was stick attached to each torpedo
which protruded above the ground to
show the Confederates where they were,
so they could avoid them in their move
ments about the lines::''
Within a month after the official in
qulry into Rains conduct at Yorktown
ne was assigned to the c.large of the
submarine defenses of the James and
Appomattox rivers and remained in SIM
liar service to the end of the war.
