that. OF course there are certain asso-
Citations that may influence me to a
slight extent Looking at the question
as would at any other of the same mo-

the great nations of the orient. With
these islands first a territory and then a

Experiences OF Canadian Engineers While

Mr.. Edward Farrer of Toronto, who
has recently returned from the North

information concerning the Canadian
routes to the Klondike
Engineers who are acting for tho
Canadian government have found

gan the Dominion government sent
mounted police-sturdy, clever fellows,
trained ON the plains, familiar with the
country and accustomed to scouting-to
make a trail from Edmonton, N. w. T.,
], 1850 miles through an untrodden will
derness to the mines. Three companies
were sent one after another in different
directions to penetrate the virgin forest.
They got as far as the fallen timber re-
gion, where they were halted by enor-
NOUS piles Of logs 20 feet or more in
height, stretching for miles in all direc-
lions and covering thousands Of acres OF
forests. The barricades were caused by
the severe storms Of the region, which
have torn down the trees and piled
them up SO that the country is impassa-

"Ono Of the engineers told me or a
most extraordinary phenomenon wit
messed by him and his associates during
their efforts to penetrate the wilderness.
The Northwest Territories of the Do
minion, like the adjoining region in the
United States, are frequently devastated
by forest fires, which are generally at
tributed to the carelessness OF white
woodsmen and hunters or Indians. II
would appear, however, from the obser'
vations of the engineers that man is not
always responsible for them. My friene

through tho mountains throughout thu
day, causing its branches to rub witt
considerable force against the trunk
and branches of the dead trees that wer
lying upon the ground On the secon'
day the incessant friction generates
spontaneous combustion, and there wa
a tremendous and destructive fire. -

An Elopement Interrupted.

A Mrs. Il. E. McBee, wife of a we'll
tO-do farmer living about six miles
south Of Wichita, arrived in this city
Friday night in company with young
man by the name of Albert HObeck
who worked on the farm for Mr.. Nc,
Bee. They put up at the Clarendon
Hotel over night, and next day the
police were looking for them on orders
from Wichita. They were taken to
the police headquarters and while the
woman engaged the officers IN a con-
versatiOn in another room, her para.
mour jumped ont of the back window
about thirty feet to the ground and
made his escape. 1t is also said that
he jumped among lot of old barrels
but did not &c, hurt.
The woman had her youngest child
and eleven months old babe, with her
An officer from Wicnita took her back.
But the Wichita papers add quite a
romantic addendum to the story as here
told. They say that HObeck is lodged
in jail in Wichita and he tells that he
went to the Missouri Pacific depot and
took the same train that the woman
and the constable we're on. During
the trip the constable took nap and
he slipped in and made ARRANGEMENTS
with Mrs. McBee where he was to meet
her. But the constable claims the fell
low came in to Wichita on another
train. However that is. he went on
a drunk when he got there to celebrate
his escapade and became so bOisterOus
that the police ran him into the Gala.
boose Next morning the officer found
him to be the man they we're looking for
and he was taken to the county jail
on failure to 81 cure 800 bond.
Mrs McBee found her husband and
according to the Wichita Star, they
kissed and made up and went back to
the old homestead.

A very sad accident occurred In the
country about seven miles south east
of this city on Monday morning. A
little six year old boy, Harry GOOkins
son Of John GOOkins, was riding horse
driving some cattle wnen the horse be-
came frightened and ran of throwing
him to the ground. His foot caught
in the stirrnp and he was dragged for
some distance. When the hOrSe was
caught the little boy was dead. An ex'
animation 1t is said showed that his
neck was broken but whether it was
done when he FIRST fell from tho horse
or whether it was after he had been
dragged can not be known.

Peoples Party Committee Meeting.
The central committee of the peO-
Piles party met persuant to call at
the GAZETTE Office on Saturday after
boon and adjourned to the band room
for better room and accommodations
The attendance was good. We hardly
had better meeting during the hot
presidential campaign last year. This
argues we'll for the activity OF the peO-
pie this fall.
The committee. in the absence Of
the chairman, Mr. Hendee. who was
in st, Louis at the time, was called to
order by Il. j. Camel, chairman Of
the executive committee, who was then
chosen to preside over the meeting.
Committeeman DantOn moved that In
the instance the regular committee
man from any township was absent
and some other working pOpulist was
present, he should be rermitted to
represent the township and the motion
carried.
After some discussion it was decided
to call the county convention on Sat
urday, Aug. 2lst., and the primaries
on Tuesday, Aug. II. H. was further
declared that the representation should
he one delegate at large for each town.
ship or ward and one for each twenty
votes cast for Governor Leedy or
major fraction thereof.
When it came to instruction as to
what kind of a call should be issued,
the livelist discussion of the meeting
arose. Some wanted free silver con-
ventiOn but it was soon determined
that we could not get on the ticket
except as pOpulists and the idea did
not take very we'll anyway. Then it
was proposed 20 issue general inyl-
tation to all who had supported Bryan
or would support his principles. But
this even met with some opposition
and there were several who wanted q
straight old pOpdlist convention and
let them come to us. Finally upon
motion a committee was appointed con-
sisting of Messrs. Hornbacker, DantOn
and NettletOn to draw up that portion
of the call and report. The committee
soon agreed on a report which was
adopted almost unanimously aud will
be found embodied in the call which is
published this week.
A motion to hold the commissioners

same time and place rs the county
convention was carried. 1t was also
decided to have new township com
