PITIFUL CONDITIONS.
Many of the kIOndike PrOspectors
Are Already in Want.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. pa spe-
cial to the Bulletin from Dyea, Alaska,
Aug. IA, tells of the pitiful condition
of many of the searchers for gold, who
are now stopping at Dyea, unable to
proceed further on their journey, ow-
ing to lack of funds for provisions.
Many of those now in Dyea are phys
ically unable to make the trip, and
there are many who will suffer great
hardships before the winter is over.
Many of those who arrived on the
steamer Willamette are absolutely
without shelter, seemingly having
come to this cold region depending on
the open-heartedness of others to keep
them alive. Many of the people who
are unable to reach Dawson this winter
have two tons of provisions and no
possible means of transportation. One
man has over 5000 pounds which he
is trying to pack over White pass in
lots of aseventy-f1ve pounds each, max
ing short relays. Thieves have been
operating extensively, and many tents,
tools and much ammunition and money
have been stolen Already a vigilance
committee is spoken of, and, unless
the thefts cease, trouble will follow.

rests Made.
There was an interesting time at a
dance in connection with the saloon of
c. Madison, ia First street north,
last night. AS a result officers Daily
and Mailman locked up two men for
disorderly conduct, Mattison's dance
was closed up and several people We're
hurt. The stories of witnesses conflict,
but it is alleged that the two prisoners,
who gave their names as Joseph MI
stadt and H. j. Stadt, were out looking
for trouble. Nustadt and Stadt were
in the dance hall and began to make
trouble by asking every one present TO
take a drink from a bottle they had
with them. Mrs. Mattison asked them
to behave and one of them Knocked
her down, in so doing breaking her
thumb. Myrtle Gray, residing at
Twelfth avenue north and Washington,
was struck in three places in the face
by one of the men. She was senseless
for half an hour. The bartender was
also struck, as we'll as several other
bystanders. The men who caused the
trouble then ran, but did not escape
the vigilance of Officers Hallman and
DAILY. Nustadt sustained a bad cut on
the back of his head, which by
stander stated Mattison inflicted with
a heavy club. Stadt was also cut on
the head and had a badly swollen eye.
After the fight the police closed Mat
tison's dance, and it is likely that he
will not be permitted to resume.

The Man of the House Displayed 1t
Looking for Burglars.
1t was midnight, and dreary rain
was falling, says the Atlanta Constitu-
ton. The West end citizen had OBJ
served before retiring that 1t would be
a good night for sleep, and he was
snoring like a side-tracked Pullman
sleeper when his wife shook him and
whispered:
"Burglarsr
He was on his feet in an INSTANT
pistol in each hand, ready for business
Where are they?" he asked, in a
quivering voice.
I'm the parlor," whispered his wife
"They are stealing the piano, and
paid the July installment on it yes
terday! Listenr'
Sure enough, the piano was emitting
the most doleful sounds-deep, fare
we'll notes, with an occasional shrill
scream of anguish.
The citizen, accompanied by the
armory before mentioned, moved eau
tiously toward the parlor.
Burglars, without doubt, for the
sounds ceased as he approached.
who's there?" he shouted.
No answer
Speak, or I'll shootn'
Dead silence.
Bang! Bang! Bang! went the guns
There was a crash, as of broken
glass And then the citizen seemed to
receive a blow on the cheek, from
which the blood trickled.
He grappled with flying object
then released his hold, while a mon
ster cat, of the gray and wandering
species, darted through broken pane
of glass and vanished in the darkness.
Then he struck a light and tried to
Quiet his Shrieking wife
Have you killed them?" she gasped.
Il have wounded one of them, I
am sure" he replied.
And then, the parlor having capitu
lated, he took possession and looked
around him.
He had punctured two oil paintings,
broken three art glass windows, wound
ed the piano in the left lung and shot
his wifes former husband-who was
reclining against the wall in crayon-
through the right eye.
He was master of the situation, but
his wife, seeing the blood trickling
from his forehead, screamed:
you are wounded! You are bleed
ingr'
"It is nothing-a mere scratcht' he
replied. And then he told six excited
neighbors and a policeman-who had
been awakened by the shots-that if
they found dead burglar outside they
needn't be surprised.

BANK BURGLAR SHOT.
Policeman at Canton Nipped II FL
nanciaI Operator in the Bud.

CANTON, O., Aug. 22.-Merchant Pc
liceman Charles Hemminger surprised
burglars in the basement of the Isaac
Harter & Sons savings bank early this
morning. The guard of the party open
ed fire on the officer, and the latter
shot one of the men who had been in
the cellar. The burglar died at the
hospital later without revealing his
identity. The burglars had a big lot
of explosives in the cellar ard were no
doubt professionals. The bank is a
strong one and generally believed to
contain a large sum of money.
Heminger came upon the robbers in
the dark and they opened fire upon
him. He shot at them and brought
down one of the burglars. Other po-
liceman arrived, but not in time to
arrest any of the other members Of the
gang. The wounded man died an
hour or two after he was shot. He
was about twenty-five years of age,
welldressed and good looking. The
robbers were undoubtedly profession
ais. for an investigation of the prem
ises have revealed full outfit Of
burglars tools. The robbers had be-
gun work in a systematic way on the
foundation Of the vault, and if not
interrupted they would probably have
made q good haul.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-Money is album
dant, although the rates rose sharply
at the beginning of last week on the
expectation Of the withdrawal of gold
for the United States. The quick re-
Spouse Of the continental exchanges
indicates that if the United States
wants gold the continental is ready to
supply it, and as a consequence rates
eased off again. Silver Is fairly steady
at 24d per ounce, chiefly owing to the
Indian demand. Only a small business
has been done during the last few days
on the stock exchange, the holidays,
the disturbed condition Of politics in
India and Turkey and the unsettled
condition of Wall street tending to de-
press prices and restrict dealings.
There was slight Improvement at the
end of the week on the strength of
better news from India. ,Consols, In

slightly, but there was no advance in

of Our Ex-Presidents.
No monument-not even a stone
marks the grave of John Tyler, once
president of the United States, says the
New York Press. His body lies buried
in an obscure little plot in Hollywood
cemetery, Richmond, Va, and the only
means of identifying it is by the monu-
ment to his daughter, whose grave is
next to his.
The Civil war was primarily respon-
sible for this neglect to honor mis-
memory. Tyler died in 1852, and the
Virginia legislature empowered the
governor of the state to erect suit
able monument. 1t also requested that
Tyler be buried in Hollywood cemc-
terry, near the grave of James Mon
roe. The first request was complied
with, but before the governor had time
to erect the memorial the war intel
fered, and in the excitement all thought
of it was forgotten, and future gener-
ations have neglected 10 complete the
work which the war interrupted.

MONS prominent real estate man,
died here yesterday in a strange fit of
strangulation caused from swallowing
a plate of three false teeth four years
ago. Within an hour after he swallowed
the teeth he became sick, and for three
days had only short intervals of re-
lief After this he had periodical re-
turns of the illness. He could eat but
little on account of seeming contrac-
ton of his throat. and grew weaker till
he became a confirmed invalid. Upon
postmortem examination the attending
physicians state that the teeth had
lodged in the oesophagus, and the sick
ness was caused by tickling sensation
such as is produced by putting the fin
ger down the throat.
