Ten YEARS YOUNGER.
A Happy Husbands Story.

"My wife," writes fond husband,
looks ten years younger since she
began to take DIR. Greene's Nervura.
She was In terrible condition. She
began to be nervous several years ago.
I did not notice it at first, but she
gradually grew worse. After little
She could not sleep. She lost her APP
petite. Then she became irritable and
morose, and from the sweetest and
best tempered woman in the world she
became shrewish and hysterical. FL
nally she began to fade away. You
know there is a difference between
women who's grow old naturally and
women who fade out from the effects
of disease. / think I am as devoted
and patient as any husband, but I
must confess that my wife's unfortu-
nate condition was sore trial. do
not know what would have become of
us if things had gone on as they were.
The change for the better came sud-
denly. There was csnplete trans
formation within a few days. Sound
sleep and a hearty appetite came as
nervousness and irritabili.y went. I
did not know what the matter was
until she told me that she had been
impressed by the sincerity and COM
mon sense of DR.. Greene's advertise
ments, and had been taking his Nerv-
ura. From misery and dependency
she is now the happiest person in the
world, with the possible exception of

COOKS INLET GOLD,
About 100000 Worth of Dust Brought
Down by the City of Topeka

About 100000 Worth of Dust Brought
Down by the City of Topeka
Port Townsend, Wash, October 12-
AS an evidence that gold is found else
where than at Klondike, the steamer
City of Topeka, which arrived yester
day from Alaska, brought down an ag-
gregate OF 100000 in gold dust from
Cooks Inlet, the result of this sum-
mer's work. This amount is distri-
buted among So men, who are coming
out to spend the winter in a place
where climatic conditions are more
favorable than the country they have
just left.
On the 22d of September 116 men
left Cooks Inlet on the steamer Perry
for Sitka, where they took the City OF
Topeka for Puget Sound. Thirty-one
of the party stopped at Juneau, where
they will spend the winter. No ricn
strikes are reported at Cooks Inlet,
but the average is S. in dust every
day they worked. On rare occasions
a man would pan out SO per day and
often as low as So. Among the pas
sengers was Robert Michaelson, who
has been n Cooks Inlet for ten years,
and who is making his first visit to the
outside world in that time. He
brought out several thousand dollars,
how much he would not state. He also
owns several very rich claims, which
be will work next year. Nicholson
will spend the winter at his old home,
Alchester. S. D. r. A. Scherzer has
upwards of $4,000 after stay of seven
years. He is going to San Francisco
TO winter and will return in the
spring. T. J. Riley, of New York, who
went to the inlet in March, 1896, and
stayed there all winter for the reason
that he had not sufficient money TO
pay his way down, was also passen-
ger on the Topeka. He is the owner
of two quartz claims on Bear creek,
in one of which the ledge is two feet
wide and assays $3.50 per ton. The
other is eight feet wide and pays $50
per ton. Riley has with him $4,000 in
dust which he washed from a placer
claim during the summer. He will re-
turn in the spring with machinery for
a stamp mill. Provisions are reported
as plentiful at reasonable prices at
Cooks Inlet.
| There was little or no sickness dur
| ing the season. About eight out of SOC
! men who were at Cooks Inlet during
the summer will winter there.
Henry Roumaine. who returned from
Cooks Inlet on the City of Topeka,
having sold m.Eing claim on Hun
! ter's creek, states that 103 head of cat
tie got in over the Dalton trail, but
that other cattle en- route will be
blocked out by the snow. Roumaina
says a number of men with light out
fits succeeded in crossing THE trail.
Their supplies are limited, and the
rmen may suffer before the winter ends.

Seattle, Wash, October 12.-The
steamer City of Topeka arrived here
last night from Juneau, Alaska. Among
her passengers was John L. Maloney,
of Juneau, who came over from Daw-
son with the Calvin party. In an in
| terview with a correspondent of the
Associated Press, Mr.. Maloney said:
| Hunter Creek and Gold Bottom
Creek, it is conceded, will equal the
now famous Bonanza and Eldorado
creeks. More especially is this true Of
Hunter creek. Location No. 33 on that
creek is among the richest in the Klon-
dixie district. Many of the claims on
this creek will run $4,000 to the box
On No. 80 Eldorado, Alex. Mcdonald S
claim, one man in a shift and half
which is about twelve hours, shoveled
in $4,000. On Skookum Gulch, which
enters Bonanza No. above Discovery
on locations Nos. 1 and 2, I saw $780,
COO weighed out of two box lengths"
Mr. Maloney saw a 16-quaFt brass
kettle filed with gold dust in the capin
of R. T. Dinsmore, Harry Spence, Bill
McFee and others. No. 81 Bonanza,
owned by Oscar Ashley and Billy
Leake, will produce s1,000,000, Ten
days after the boat left for down the
river, taking the gold, the North Amer
lean Trading & Transportation Com
pany had a quarter of million IN its
safe at Dawson. This shows how rap
idly the gold accumulates.
Mr. Maloney says that over $4,000.
900 will come out this fall. "There ale
stacks and stacks of gold" he said,
leach with the owners name on II.
Alex. Mcdonald will produce the larg-
est amount. I hesitate to give figures.
but the simple truth is that his various
interests will yield from S2,000,9o0 20
S4,000,000 this winter These figures
are staggering, but true"
The statement is made that Henry
Bratnoble. agent for the Rothschilds
who has been several weeks at the
diggings, offered over million for ten
claims adjoining on Eldorado, biz tie
offer was declined. Maloney offered
$4,000 for a half interest in claims

ROT AN ENTHUSIASM.
A Mining Expert Talks OF Conditions in
the klOndike

Mining Expert Talks OF Conditions in
the Kiondike.
San Francisco, October 12.-Henry
BratnOber, tie mining expert, who is
known throughout the United States
from his connection with the Explora-
ton Company, of London, has returned
from the klonGike. His mission was
to ascertain if any opportunity pre-
sented itself for investment. He says:
Il found some very good placer mines,
but not as sensational in richness as
has been reported. In many cases, the
claims are comparatively poor, al
though almost any of them will pay
wages. Because one claim is very
rich is no reason why an adjoining
one should be equally good. On the
contrary, the near neighbor of a rich
claim is generally not worth much.
There are few summer diggings in the
Klondike; that is, those which can be
worked by the ordinary sluicing pro-
cess. Most of the bedrock is Is or 20
feet below the surface and the earth is
frozen solid except the Is inches or
feet which thaws in the summer. On
the whole the Klondike may be classed
as very good diggings, and I should
say there is a good chance Tor other
discoveries this fall
GAS to quartz mining, l consider it
impossible at the present time, owing
to the difficulty to be overcome. l do
not think there is much danger of star
walton at Dawson"
c. w Matthews, ex-sheriff of Ash
land, Wis, has returned from a trip to
the Klondike, made for the purpose of
ascertaining whether sheep and cattle
could be shipped to the mining districts
of Alaska and the Northwest terri
DRY at a profit, and he is now on his
way East to perfect arrangements for
sending flock of 1000 sheep to Dawson
in the early spring. Matthews is asso-
ciated in the undertaking with john
son, Of the firm Of Rea Bros, Chicago,
