Eytractinp Gold.

A process of extracting gold by which
every particle of the metal in ore is
recovered is stated to be in successful
operation in West Australia. 1t is
called the ore automatic process. Gold
Quartz is crushed into small Jumps and
is then put into a closed chamber, sub
5ected to the heat OF furnace, to the
action of water and of hydrogen gas.
This eliminates sulphur and reduces all
oxides to the metallic state. After be-
ing heated the material is suddenly
cooled by jets of water, an operation re-
peated several times till the quartz
crumbles to powder at the touch of the
finger. It is then thrown into a tank
and the gold is separated by washing.

Food Of tho Eskimos OF Alaska.

The Eskimos of Alaska have profited
by their contact with civilized people,
not only to obtain many of the utensils
and appliances of life, and to preserve
food and supplies for the long north.
ern winters. The "Sportsmans Re-
view" gives an interesting recital of
their progress: From time imme-
mortal the Eskimos have taken eggs
and fowls during the short season they
were available. There is no system of
canning eggs to determine their grade
among the natives. An egg is an egg
to them at any period Of incubation,
and so long as the season lasts they
live in riotous plenty. Formerly they
were contented with what they could
eat during the season, but since they
have come in contact with white peo-
pie they have learned more thorough,
methods, and now they provide eggs
and birds to last the whole year
through. They dry or pickle the flesh
and the eggs are preserved in barrels
of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. oil. An added

peals to an Eskimo's peculiarly cult
waited taste To an Eskimo an egg taken
at any time in the season is eatable;
but to be salable to the whites it must
be fresh, so the Eskimos divide the ter
ritory among themselves, and make
systematic round of the nests each day,
taking the fresh eggs, and finally pickl-
ing the mother when she refuses to lay
any more, capturing her with moose
of wire. Now part of the regular fare
of the Yukon steamboat is wild goose.
At the first meal the tourist is apt to
regard the bird with great good favor,
but as meal after meal passes wild
goose ceases to be joy. This continual
depreciation Of the nests, combined
with the Pacific coast market and rec
ord hunting, has already depleted the
focks OF web-foot birds that one time
were to be seen in myriads during the
migrating season"

1t may sound absurd to make state
ment about smoking meat without fire, y
for it is a well known saying that where
there is smoke there must be fire" The
advance of science, however, has made
this idea obsolete, and today with the use
of krausers' Liquid Extract of Smoke it is
possible to quickly, economically and sue
cessfuliy smoke meat without a fire. This
liquid extract is made by distilling the
smoke from hickory wood and is absolute
1y harmless. In fact, meat smoked by this
method has genuine smoke flavor, re
mains moist and soft, and is not infested
with insects. Every objection of the old
method is overcome, every trouble ended
and the unsightly and dangerous smoke
house is thing of the past. Krausers'
Liquid Extract of Smoke long ago passed
the age of experiment, and thousands are
using it today with profit and satisfaction

SPAlN'S YOUNG KING.
The Youthful Monarch Delights In Strict

The Youthful Monarch Delights In Strict
Military Discipline.
The education of Alphonso XIII. has
a strong military character, like that OF
his father and his ancestors. 1t hap
PLY gives entire satisfaction to his own
1nciinations, says the London Specta"
tor. He is exceedingly fond of the
army and Of everything connected with
soldering. He takes a keen interest
in the parades, the barracks and the
drills. He is simply delighted when
ever his mother takes him to see the
environments near Madrid and calls
him to the balcony of the palace to
watch the march pass of the battalions
departing for Cuba. When the sentries
present arms or the guards turn out
as he passes he acknowledges their at
tentions with the most correct military
salute. One of his earliest and pleas
ATTEST recollections is the first Twelfth
Day levee, exclusively ATTENDED by the
generals and officers, that he was per-
mitted to witness in the palace. Since
that occasion he has always been pres
ent on Jan. g. Last year, for the 1lrst
time, he wore the uniform Of a cadet OF
the general military academy of To-
ledo, the Castilian Sandhurst. He ap-
peared in the same uniform at the
levees held by the queen regent on his
saints day, San Ildefonzo, Jan. %, and
on his birthday, May II. These are
the only state ceremonies, with the
opening Of the parliament, in which
the young king has yet taken part,
standing or sitting gravely on his
mothers right hand. He has not yet
been present at any evening reception
or banquets or theatrical performances
of any kind, or attended a bull-tight.
Much care is taken with his physical
training. He has every day half an
hour or more of gymnastics and spends
about the same time in the riding
school of the palace. He likes horses
and riding. Nothing pleases him more
than when the queen takes him for a
long ride outside Madrid in some Of
the royal parks. Before he was allowed
to have horses he used to ride donkeyS.
He is very fond of driving a pair Of
ponies that are kept for his special
service. Every afternoon, when the
weather permits, he spends couple OF
hours, in the open air, but is, of course,
able to take more exercise and fresh
air in San Sebastian during the sum-
mer than at Madrid. Last year he en-
joyed his sea bathing for the first
time, though he can not swim we'll yet.
Fencing is an art he is most anxious
to be allowed to learn. Up to the pres
ent he has not INDUCED in cycling,
though it Is as much the rage in Spain
as in any other country. He tried
once, at Miramar summer palace, in
San Sebastian, tricycle., which came
roughly into contact with stones and
caused a slight bruise, without, how
ever, damping his determination to try
again. It is said, indeed, that Alphonso
XIII. resembles his father in his stead
mess of purpose when once he has
made up his mind to do anything.

A COUNTERFEITER CAUGHT.


The Police of Syracuse Make an Import
ant Capture.
On Monday the 18th, Harold Marquisee, OF
Utica, N. Y, was arrested in Syracuse N.
Y, on q warrant sworn out by the DR..
VIII ans Medicine Co., charging him with
forgery. On the 18th of December Marqui.
see visited "A photo-engraver in Syracuse,
saying he was the representative Of the DR..
Williams Medicine Co., and arranged for
the making of full set of plates for the di-
rectlon sheets, tables, etc, of the famous
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
News Of this reached the home office, and
no time was lost in arranging for his arrest
when he should return for the plates. He
returned on the 18th and was accordingly
arrested and is now in Jail in Syracuse
awaiting examination.
This arrest proves to be an important one.
In addition to various plumber, such as
medical books, typewriters, rugs, ETC.,
found in Marquisee's trunk when arrested,
the police also found counterfeit coin both
in the trunk and on his person; and in
n seal CHI of his apartments at Utica found
q complete outfit for counterfeiting con-
sisting of crucibles, bellows, nickel, lead,
bismuth, antimony, small blacksmith
forge, charcoal furnace, and several
plaster-o paris molds. The United States
marshnls want him just as soon as the DR.,
Williams Medicine Co. are through with
him, and, no doubt, he will be sentenced
for long period
In selecting Dr. Williams Pink Pills for
his counterfeiting operations, he showed
his knowledge of the proprietary medical
business; for these pills are in such great
demand that they are easily sold at any
drug store in the United States. His scheme
was to work the country druggists and sell
his limitations at discount OF from 9 per
cent to 5 per cent, explaining the reduced
price by the fact that he had picked them
up in small lots and at a discount from
dealers who were over-stocked. By work
ing fast and making long jumps, he would
have secured many hundreds Of dollars in
short time. The proprietors Of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills are most fortunate to
have caught the rogue, before he had fair
ly started, and to have thus kept these
spurious goods out of the market.

Reviving prosperity Is on every hand
To be sure II Is not coming with rush
and in the nature Of things could not be.
But there are reasons for believing that
the American people are gathering fresh
strength and that confidence so sorely
tried of late years. The many mills and
industries Of all kinds that have so severe
ly felt the shocks of incompetent tariffs
and vociferous demands for besmirching
the national honor, have taken fresh heart
since the memorable verdict of the people
of last November. There were those who
in view of the campaign talk had the idea
that after election business would boom at
once and industries that had been keeping
house with closed doors for long periods
would at once resume with full force. This
could hardly be, but within a brief time
after the election was over there had
been such noticeable revival and so
many men had found employment that
campaign pledges were fully kept in ev-
cry sense of the word. Business Is gath
ering strength with every passing week.
