RICHEST CLAIMS ARE ON
 THE AMERICAN SIDE.
Captain Ray Says the Mining Dis tricts of Alaska Are
 the Best.

SEATTLE, April 16.-Captain Phil Ray, U. s. A, who has represented the Government in the Yukon River coun- try for the past year, returned early this morning on the steamship Queen. Later he went to Portland by train and will go thence direct to Washington. In an interview he said:
 "All of the gold that came out last year was credited to the Klondike, but some of it came from the American side. Our output will certainly be a million dollars this year. The claims abandoned when the Klondike excite ment broke out have been relocated and will be thoroughly worked. I think we have better and more exten- sive mining sections in Alaska than in the Northwest Territory. Outside of Fl Dorado, Bonanza, Hunker and Dominion creeks. it is not known that there are any which are paying as well as those In the Birch Creek district.
 1.-The food scare at Dawson was the indirect means of developing much American territory in Alaska during the past winter. I met several hum dred prospectors between Circle City and Dawson, going down to work on American creeks along the Yukon. At the mouth of Seventy Mile and at the mouth of Mission Creek are settle ments which promise to grow into cities soon. The town at the first named place is called Star City, and the other Eagle City. When i came by the min- CTS at Seventy Mile showed me pans of dirt that ran from 15 to 30 cents.

 NEVADA CITY Veterans Grieve Over tn e Death of w els A.
 Ashman.
Member of the Grand Army Fights His Last Battle
 on Earth.
His Demise Necessitates a Pause in the Preparations for the En-
 component
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEVADA CITY, April 16.-To-mor- row the Union Veterans of Chatta- nooga Post must pause in their prepa- rations for entertaining the Grand Army of the Republic of California and Nevada, which is to assemble here in annual encampment next week, and with bowed heads and saddened hearts follow to their last resting place in Pine Grove Cemetery the mortal re- mains Of one of their comrades.
 Wells Adolphus Ashman, who served as a private in Company I, Seventh Regiment, California Infantry, in 1864, 1865 and 1866, died to-day at the County Hospital of general debility. He was a pioneer miner, quitting that occupation to respond to his country s call. When peace came he again took up pick and pan and continued to hunt for gold until recently. He died poor, his only known living relative being a rich brother in New York State. who came out last summer and tried in vain to get him to quit his old stamp ing ground and spend his declining years amid plenty and comfort on the Eastern seabGard.
 The stars and stripes hang at hall mast tonight from many fagstafts around the city in memory of the griz- zled old veteran who had said ever since his health began to fail that he would rather die in a poorhouse in Cal ifornia than live in a palace beyond the Rockies.
 The advance guard of the hosts to arrive on Monday afternoon are com ing on every train. Mrs. Jennie Chap man Briggs of San Jose department chaplain of the Woman's Relief Corps, is here. She left a beautiful home at Madison, Wisconsin, just before the fall of Vicksburg, and, going to the front, entered the Union Hospital at Memphis as a volunteer nurse. She was there nearly year and at each gathering of the Grand Army she meets many old soldiers who remember with gratitude her kindly ministrations when they were under her care in the hospital Major William Hargrave o1 San Diego, representing Heintzlemar Post, is another early arrival. He re- ports that almost every town in the northern part of the State will be rep resented next week, as the idea prevails that this encampment will be one o1 the best yet held in the West.

YOELL CHARGED WITH CRUELTY Wife of the Capitalist Brings a Suit for
 Divorce. Declares That She Fears to Longer Remain Under
 His Roof.
Asks for Half of the Community Property, Which Is Valued at
 Over S2Oo,OoO.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, April 16.-Mrs. Emily C. Yoell to-day began suit against J. Alex ander Yoell, the capitalist, for a divorce on the ground of extreme and continued cruelty. The Yoells are prominent soci- ety people, and the suit will create some commotion among the upper ten. About a year ago similar suit for divorce was commenced, but the action was subse- quently dismissed at the request of the plaintiff. Following close upon this Mrs. Yoeil went through insolvency and re- ceived her discharge in the insolvency proceedings about month ago. Her lia- bilities amounted to over S20,0O0, and two- tl-lrds of this sum was for inducements on notes of her son, Attorney John Il. Yoell of this city. There were no assets, and great opposition arose from credit ors to her taking advantage of the in solvency ac- owing to the great wealth of her husband.
 In the divorce complaint filed to-day Mrs. Yoeil charges her husband with eX- August 8, 1862. and she alleges that two years later her husband commenced his unkind, harsh and tyrannical conduct toward her. which has continued with slight intermisSionS until the present time. She says he possessed such vio- lent passion and ungovernable temper that she and the children were compelled to withdraw from the pleasures of social intercourse and not invite any one to the house for fear that he would get into one of his ugly fits" and abuse the visitors. Furthermore. she says life has become unbearable with him and that she is afraid to live with him. On several occa- sions, she alleges, he called her black hearted wretch" and a "she-devil."
 The complaint alleges that the estate is all community property and is worth over s200 GOO. Mrs. Yoell wants one-half of this and $500 month alimony. There are seven children.
 Yoell, until few years ago, was a prominent lawyer of this city. He is worth fully a half million dollars, and has large property interests in San Fran cisco.

Results of the Test in Various Forms Of
 Dyspepsia.

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia while a very common trouble, has for some time been looked upon by able physicians as serious thin" ana that no time sho-.ld be lost Tn treating It properly at the start, because recent researches have own that the most serious. fatal and incurable diseases have their origin in simple dyspepsia or indigestion.
 Diabetes is simply one form or 1ndi- gestion, the sugar and starchy Iooo not being assimilated by the digestive or gans. In Bright's disease the albumen is not prop ly assim.latec
 While consumption and dyspepsia are twin diseases, and it IS Deyon0 question that dyspepsia makes Ter tile soil for the seeds of consumption
 But the trouble has bee44 to find a renll. 1y that could be depended upon to cure dyspepsia, as it is notor1ous1y obstinate and difficult to cure:
 This has been the question which mas puzzled physicians and dyspeptlcS alike, until tEe question was solved three years ago by the appearance or world known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which it was claimed was certain, reliable cure for every form of stomach trouble.
 Physicians, however, woul not ac- cept such statements without first glV- ing the new remedy many tests ana carefully observing results.
 For three years the remedy has been thoroughly tested in every section of the country and with surprising and satisfactory results.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be honestly claimed to be a specific, radical lastin~ cure for indigestion in the various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour stomach, gas or wind on stomach, too much bile, undue fullness or pres sure after eating and similar symptoms resulting iron. disordered digestion. Stua-t's Dyspepsia Tablets were not placed before the public until this three years trial left no doubt as to their value and they have recently been placed in the trade and can be found on sale at all druggists at the nominal price of 50 cents per package.
 No extravagant claims are made for the remedy. It will not cure rheuma- tism, pneumonia, typhoid fever nor anything but just what it is claimed to cure and that is every form of stomach trouble.
 No dieting is necessary, good whole some food and plenty of 1t and you may rest assured that Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets will digest it.

They will remain on board tonight, as no provision has been made to accommodate them at the barracks here. They may be given tents to-mor- row on the parade ground.
 In spite of the local papers predicting that trouble would follow the arrival of colored troops here. leading to a de- monstration against them at the pier, there was no excitement of any kind when the steamer came in, and neither cheers nor misses greeted the soldiers. They have been stationed in Montana and other Eastern States, where they were famous for discipline, and look like good fighters.

SALINAS, April 16-The decision in the Mayoralty contest to unseat w. J. Hill and seat C. Francee was rendered this afternoon, Judge Dooling giving judg- ment for contestant. The principal ground of contest was that the First and Third ward polling places had closed at 5 o'clock and the Second Ward at sun down. In his decision the Judge says:
 II am of the opinion that section 1166 of the Penal Code was not intended to apply to municipal elections held under charters which themselves contain pro- visions in reference to the time of open ing and closing pols."
 He gives the election to Francee by a majority of six votes, the First and Third wards being thrown out. An appeal to the Supreme Court will at once be taken by MT. Hill.
