The Yukon Route rmpa..nbie.

A special courier arrived at Taiya
n few days ago from Dawson, sent out
by one Of the trading companies. with
information to the effect that in CON
sequence of the low condition of the
water IN the Yukon river it is very
doubtful whether any river steamers
will be able to reach Dawson this year.
Upon the strength So this report the
Canadian authorities have placed in
force an order making il compulsory
that all persons going down the river
shall have 600 pounds of provisions,
or they will not be allowed to proceed.
This puts an entirely new complexion
on the interior travel this year. The
only way the miners can get out with
any comfort will be by way of the pony
express over the Dalton trail or by the
passes.-Alaska Miner.

The entertainment last night AT
Union hall emphasized the need
of n first class theatre building at
this place. No high grade opera
or drama can be successfully given
in Florence at present, no matter
what The ability of the perform
ers may be.
At the present time Pueblo,
Cripple Greek and Victor are be-
ing visited by the best show
troupes in the West, and there is
no reason why they fail to reach
Florence, excepting the fact that
we have no stage on which they
can successfully place their per-
formances.
The Tribune believes that n
modern, well furnished playhouse
in Florence would be a paying in
vestment under proper manage
ment, and such management can
readily be secured.

After stirring up row that
threatens to depopulate France
with the horrors of war, Zola will
throw his influence on the other
side by writing novel against the
low birth rate which is slowly
sitting the French power. He
hopes to convert his countrymen
to his belief in large families, but
he might as well attempt to modify
the movement of the solar system.
The French birth rate is low be-
cause the people are highly civil
lied, very intelligent, very thrifty.
and rather selfish. Even patriot
ism and the aspiration for Alsace-
Lorraine can hardly induce them
to forego convenience and econ
omy, remarks the Springfield Re-
publican.

INTENSE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and Stomach
Trouble.
Instantly Relieved and Permanently Cured
by Stewards Dyspepsia
Tablets.
A New Discovery, But Not a Patent
Medicine,

New Discovery, But Not a Patent
Medicine.
,, DR.. Redwell relates an interesting ac-
count Of what he considers remark
able cure of acute stomach trouble and
chronic dyspepsia by the use OF the new
discovery, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says: The patient was man
who had suffered to my knowledge for
years 18th dyspepsia Everything he
ate seemed to sour and create acid and
/. gases in the stomach; he had pains
like rheumatism in the back, shoulder
blades and limbs, fullness and distress
after eating, poor appetite and loss of
flesh; the heart becoming affected,
causing palpitation and sieeplessness at
night.
l gave him powerful nerve tOnicS and
blood remedies, but to no purpose. AS
an experiment l finally bought fifty
DENT package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at a drug store and gave them
to him. Almost immediate relief was
given and after he had used four boxes
he was to all appearances fully cured.
There was no more acidity or sour
watery risings, no bloating after meals,
the appetite was vigorous and he has
gained between 10 and II pounds IN
weight of solid, healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are advertised and sold in drug stores,
yet l consider them a most valuabS
addition to any physician line OF
remedies, as they are perfectly harm
less and can be given to children or
invalids or in any condition of the
stomach with perfect safety, being
harmless and containing nothing but
vegetable and fruit essences, pure pep
sin and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for indiges-
ton, biliousness, constipation and all
arrangements of the stomach, however
slight or severe.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made
by the Stuart Co., of Marshall, Mich,
and sold by druggists everywhere at
fifty cents per package.

An unknown man was run over by
Ohio River passenger train No. 6 above
Glendale yesterday morning, about a
quarter past ten o'clock, and instantly
killed. The train was coming towards
the city. The engineer saw man
walking in the center of the track
ahead of him, just short distance
above the coal tipple. The engineer
blew the whistle, but the track walker
kept inside the rails. The engineer
thought that he would get out of the
way, and seeing that the man either
did not hear the whistle or did not
intend to move, he put on the brakes,
but it was too late. The man was hit
fairly by the engine and knocked to enc
side of the track. He was picked up
dead He had received a terrible cash
on the top of the head and his left leg
was broken below the knee. The dead
man was unknown. The only clue to
his identity was tattoo Of y. Sheev-
ers'' on his arm. He did not appear to
be a tramp, but was dressed like a
WOrkingman. A section man stated
that the man had been talking with
him a few minutes before the accident,
and had said he was going to Balti-
more to get work. The deceased was
about As years of age, had mustache
and dark hair. He weighed about 140
pounds, and was about feet inches
in height. The body was brought to
Wheeling on the train and afterwards
taken to Moundsville. If not identi-
fed it will be inferred by the Marshall
county authorities. An inquest was
held at MOundsville, at which the en-
gineer was exonerated from all blame.
A B. & o. brakeman named Vincent
Glasco was severely injured at Man
nington yesterday morning, and was
brought to this city. He was taken to
the North Wheeling hospital and is at
tended by Dr. J. O. Campbell, B. e O.
surgeon. Glasco fell underneath a
freight train and twenty-nine cars
passed over him. He was inside the
rails and escaped fatal injury. His
back was injured to some extent, but
he will recover Glasco lives a short
distance west of Bellaire.

TWO INTERESTING BUILDINGS.

Pictures Of two interesting Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad buildings have been
reproduced in recent issue of Truth.
One is the building at Frederick, Md,
which has been used since 1881 as a
freight station, and which is still de-
voted to that purpose. In the little
cupola of the building bell once hung
which was always rung on arrival of
trains from Baltimore when horses
were the motive power of the railroad.
The other building is the station at
Mount Clare, Baltimore, and it is noted
as being the location of the first tele-
graph office in the world. 1t was from
this building that Professor Morse sent
his celebrated message in 1874 to his
friends in Washington, forty miles
away.

pronounces successes, and the reason
is, it is unlike any other ofering OF
the kind and as the public has been
surfeited with sameness in this class
of entertainment. when a performance
as unconventional was presented. ii was
natural that 1t should meet with ex-
pressed approval In addition to the
charm ofNnovelty. this happy musical
comedy has a story that is consistent
and humorously told, witty dialogue,
catchy music ard beautiful ensembles.
The scenic pictures are elaborate ana
the costumes magnificent. There is a
large chorus of fifty voices and an aug
mented orchestra.

vocalists and vaudeville stars, embrac-
ing Darkest America" and Afro

John Rucker. the funniest negro come
dams ever seen in Wheeling, and La
She" who does some marve.ous things
on slack wire. The programme
closes with about twenty minutes OF
operatic selections by Lawrence Chen

Charles B. Taylor. 1t is bright and
snappy performance throughout and
if the evidences Of appreciation last
night count for anything. there will be
large audiences for the remaining per-
