Returning Klondikers Claim There Is Not
suficient Food at Dawson City.
Seattle, Wash, Dec 27.-John LIND
say, of Olympia, Wash, who has just
arrived from Dawson City, says there
will surely be starvation there this
winter. He examined into the food
situation in thorough manner, he
says, and after satisfying himself that
there would be starvation, he sold his
outfit and in company with Frank
Ballaine, of Olympia, Tom Story, OF
Victoria, B. G., and Bob Glynn, OF
Seattle, started out on foot, each man
drawing sled carrying about lac
pounds of provisions. Lindsay says
the Dawson people believe there is NO
great amount of food at Fort Yukon,
as has been alleged. The river rose
sufficiently and remained open long
enough to enable food supplies to have
been brought from Fort Yukon had
there been any there.
The people of Dawson, believing
that there was not ample food supplies
at Fort Yukon, refused to go there
preferring to remain in Dawson. NJ
more than 800 or 400 people took ad
vantage of the transportation com
panies' offer to take the people to For
Yukon free of charge. When tn
miners at Dawson found that no NOR
provisions would reach the town b,
the river route, they announced that
meeting would be held to take step
for apportioning the provisions in tn
town. Those that had plenty, the
said, must share with those who ha
none. Capt. Constantine, of the North
west mounted police, interferred an
told the miners that no such thin
would be permitted. The meeting wa

SHOT HERSELF.
Suicide of an Accomplished Young Society
Woman In Washington.

Washington, Dec 27.-The recent
tragic death of Miss Leila Herbert,
the daughter of the ex-secretary of the
navy, is given as the reason for the
suicide which occurred Sunday of Miss
Annie v. Wells, an accomplished young
society woman and daughter of Lewis
s. Wells, well-known attorney. The
young woman shot herself through
the heart with her brothers revolver
at the residence of her father, 1911 N
street, northwest Miss Wells had met
Miss Herbert number of times and
was very much attached to her. She
herself had been confined to the house
for four months by illness and this,
combined with the shock caused by
the death of her friend, brought on
melancholia, which resulted in sui
eide. The decd was apparently en-
tirely unpremeditated. Miss Wells was
S3 years of age and very beautiful.

Another Prisoner Escapes.from the County
Jail-Recaptured at Burlington.

About $50 Wednesday evening q
prisoner named Walton made his es-
cape from the county Jail. The man
was confined in a cell on the second
floor and made his escape by slipping
through the bars and letting himself
down on rope which he had made
from the blanket in the cell. A short
time later the escape was discovered,
and search about the premises was
made for the prisoner. Not finding
any trace of the fellow officers were
sent in all directions to intercept the
fugitive. These efforts were successful
and the man was found in Burlington
early Thursday morning. He was re-
turned to this city and will be kept in
confinement without any of the liber-
ties allowed to the other prisoners.
Walton was arrested several weeks
ago in Chicago on charge OF larceny,
he being accused of stealing several
fur coats from car on the Northwest
ern railroad. He was also thought to
have been connected with the robbery
of the hardware store of FL. c. Schulz.

No
Theory Here,

The greatest claims for S.S.S. (Swift's
Specifc) are made by those whom it has
cured, and after all the most valuable
reputation is one which is given by those
who speak from experience. We could
publish page of what we claim SIS.
viii do, but the people prefer to read
Of what it has done, and hence we give
the testimony of reputable, we1l-known
people in different parts of the country,
who gladly tell of how SIS. has cured
them of blood diseases, after trying
ether treatment in vain.
No wonder S.S.S. has such staunch
friends. The experience of those who
lake it to-day will be the same as of
those who twenty years ago found it the
only cure. Blood diseases are obstinate,
and cannot be cured by one medicine
in dozen which claims to cure them;
90 when SIS. is taken with satisfactory
results, after disappointing expert
ence with other remedies, it is not
strange that it has grateful friends by
kHR score.

MIR. William Sewers, of Bradford, Ohio,
was cured by SIS. ten years ago of a
severe blood poison, and writes that to
this day no sign of the dreadful disease
has ever returned. He says:
''I had terrible blood disease which
Is considered incurab1e, and was treated
for long time by the best physicians,
But they did me no good. The disease
seemed to get a. firmer hold on me, and
attacked my tongue and throat, which
were soon full of vile ulcers.
''I changed doctors several times, and
afterwards took nearly every blood rem
edy on the market, without the slightest
benefit. After five years of treatment
which did me no good whatever, was
induced to try SIS. This remedy
proved itself equal to the case, for in q
Few months was entirely cured and my
skin was perfectly clear and smooth.
L could hardly believe that the cure was
permanent, but ten years have elapsed
and no sign of the disease has yet ap-
peared."
