| The October issue of the Atlantic
Monthly, to be published on September
| goth, will celebrate the close of the fortieth
year of the magazines life. 1t will be a
| specially interesting number.
In McClure's Magazine for September,
William Allen White, whose story of
with delight the country over, will relate
Boyville," wherein Piggy Pennington
and his devoted subjects further reveal
themselves.
The great question, care the Rich
Growing Richer and the Poor Poorero'
is discussed in the September Atlantic by
Carroll D. Wright, Commissioner of
Labor. He proves that while the number
of rich men is growing larger, the rela-
tive number of the poor is decreasing,
and that the tendency of our population
is towards an increase in universal we'll
being.
The fiction of the September Atlantic is
exceptionally good, After the Storm, by
Ella w. Peattie; A Second Marriage, by
Alice Brown, and the conclusion of
Frances Courtenay Baylor's two part
story, Buttertield 4 Co. A sketch by
Guy II. Scull, entitled A Man and the
Sea, and poems by Martha Gilbert Dick
inson and Lucy 5. Conant, add dis
tinctly literary flavor to this issue.
One of the most interesting features of
Harper's Magazine for September will be
an article on George du Maurier, by Henry
James. giving an intimate view of the
artist and writer. Other attractive feat
ures will be- around London by BIZ
cycle" by Elizabeth Robins Pencil
The Beginnings of the American Navy"
by James Barnes; instalments of the
serial stories by Frank Il. Stockton and
John Fox, Jr.; and humorous romance
of the golf links, 1.-The Lost Ball." by w.
G. van L. Sutphen, etc.
Mcclure Magazine for September will
contain thoroughly practical and useful
article on Life in the Klondike Gold
Fields" 1t embodies the personal OBJ
servations of a pioneer who has lately
come out, bringing fair fortune with
him, and it tells how the miners enter
and work their claims, how they live,
how they govern themselves, what kind
of men they are, and how they pass their
leisure time. 1t tells also what is the
best way to the Klondike, what the best
equipment for the journey and year s
residence there, and what promise of
prosperity the country actually O ffers.
The article will be fully illustrated from
recent photographs.

Knew the Law,



A. NJ. Keuuison of this city enjoys brook
fishing well as any person living and has
taken some good strings in the brooks about
here where many others have failed to "get
a nibbIe." He respects the fish and game
laws as much as any one and would not
knowingly wet a line in forbidden water
any sooner than he would shoot big deer
in close time.
few days ago he took a trip to Durham
to try the much talked of Thompson brook
On arriving at the station there he asked
bystander the direction of the brook and
being told, started off. He enjoyed good
luck and III short time had well filled
basket of fine trout. just then man came
styling out of the bushes and remarked,
"HuIlo, what luck?" Good, replied Mr.
kennisOn. LET me how many you
have? Certainly" and Mr., Kennison
threw open the lid of his basket displaying
lot of fish that would be the delight of any
fisherman.
well" said the stranger, There is a law
| on this brook and | am fish warden SO |
shall have to arrest you and take these fish
Mr.. kennison was hustled to the village,
and arraigned before trial justice, a sort
of hearing gone through with, and the
court was about to pronounce sentence when
the defendant asked, "Have you a copy of
the last issue of the fish and game laws?"
The court allowed that he had not and it
was not until boy on bicycle had made
long ride over town that copy Of the acts
and resolves of the last legislature was
secured. When this was brought in Mr.
Kennison pointed out to the justice the act
which repealed the law on Thompson brook
which has existed for five or six years. His
Honor read the act carefully, then turning
to the warden, who still held his prisoner
securely lest he might escape, said, Gosh,
Bill, We're in the soup. There amt no law
on that ere brook, sure as preaGhin but I'll
be gol darned if | believe there's a man in
Burnham who knew it afore Here, mister,
here's yer fish an We'll go out and help yer
ketch some more ter make up for the time
yer've lost at this ere hearin. As its bout
noon yer'd better come up to my house and
git some dinner, fore we start back on the
brook"
And Mr.. Kennison took his basket of trout
and Departed. WaterviIle Mail.

The New Dis ease-kIondikitis,

pray tell me, pa" the maiden cried,
With eyes of blue amaze,
What all these people have when they
Contract the Klondike craze?
There's Johnny Jones, real nice boy,
He seems to have it bad;
And Deason Smith is all broke up,
10 see him makes me sad.
There's Mr.. Ford, he's pawned his bank,
His farm he's also sold;
And Lawyer Thorp will leave next week
To search for yellow gold!
There's Sister Susan Ann McNeal,
The heathen's staunchest friend,
Says she will find Alaska's wealth
And ship loads home will send
Now, don't you think there's something
wrong
When people act that way? 4
And can't you work the Kniepp cure here
Or use the big X-ray ?"
The surgeon sadly shook his head
And heaved heavy sign,
"Too bad! Too bad!' he cried in grief
A tear fell from his eye!
"I've walked upon red fields of death,
Where soldiers bled and died!
I've fought the Asiatic plague
On Ganges' turbid tide
I've braved sand storms on Egypt's plains,
The yellow fever's breath
lad terrors nought for me, my child,
Nor cholera-awful death
The simoons of the Indian seas
Have never phased me yet.
With ease the Deluge I'd have passed
And ne'er a hair had wet.
But to be frank, the truth will out,
This Klondike craze for gold,
10 use slangy expression, please,
Has knocked me silly cold!
The germ, bacillus, what you will,
Is flying in the air.
You can't avoid it, try your best,
It's floating everywhere;
With equal peace-destroying pow'r
1t smites the poor and rich;
Its victims fall like flies beneath
roaring fire of pitch
Be good, my child, remember, pa
Loved you and all the rest.
Tomorrow night leave you, sweet,
And all cherish best.
Within year or two, at most,
Tell ma will return;
I'll buy you things till you can't rest
I'll have gold bricks to burnt"

WHAT DO THE CHILDREN DRINK ?

Don't give them tea or coffee. Have you tried the
new food drink called Grain-O? 1t is delicious
and nourishlng and takes the place of coffee The
more Grain o you give the children the more
health you distribute through the systems. Grain
o is made of pure grains, and when properly pre-
pared tastes like the choice grades of coffee, but
costs about IA as much. All grocers sell it. 15c.

they have seen it are Conductor Cal

Fireman Ed. Stevens, of the Southern
Pacific. None of these gentlemen touch
liquor of any kind, and none of them
are active members of any prevaricat-

WEDNESDAY, NIGHT ONLY.

In Gay New York. which comes to
the Grand Opera House next We'd
nesday night IS a musical and farcial
review from the New York Casino and
is generally accepted as the brightest
and best entertainment of it's class
ever given in this country. Klaw and
Erlanger, famous firm of managers,
give their names and reputation to
this production and send a company
of seventy-tive people and two car
loads of scenery TO give it adequate
production. Eddie FOy, specially en-
gagged for his fitness to the central
figure of the play, Lee Harrison,
Gilbert Gregory, Yorke and Adams,
Arthur V. Gibson, Jeanette Bageard,
who recently scored heavily in "One
Round of Pleasure" at the Knicker-
booker theatre in New York; Gertrude
Zeller Eta Gilroy, Alice VeaZie and
Josephine Stanton have prominence
i'm the series of burlesques, eXtravan-
Zas, ballets and bits of comedy, opera
and vaudeville work that go to make
up this merry picture of life in Gay
New York. Rapid movement and in
ceSsant action characterize the piece
throughout and its brightest of COM
edy, prettiest of ballets, cleverest of
dancers and most catchy of music
go to make up performance that has
never been equalled in its class.

his household effects, in which he was

Mr.. Short was insured for $500 on
his stock of groceries which he says
were worth S400. The house was
worth about $500 also and was partly
insured. The fire is thought to have
originated from the stove as that was
the spot burned most and Mounted
Officer Brown, who answered the call
says the fire broke through the roof
at the fiue first.
