started skyward. The flag Is a tasty
and patriotic addition to the office
building, and at the present time is par
tioularly appropriate.

General Merritt says that each SOL

treble the work Of the Red Cross So

going on the supposition that one Tor
each soldier was enough.
Another expedition will start for the
islands in a few days. and 10000 fever
belts will be needed for the soldiers
that are to compose 1t. To make this
number by that time will require some
quick work, and every branch OF the

Fourteen Millions Left to Charity.

An eminent clergyman, member of many
benevolent associations. has prepared
comparative tables showing the amount
Of money left for charitable or benevolent
purposes by testators throughout the
United States during the past three years.
He finds that the bequests for 1897 are
81, 900 in excess of those of 1896: In the
former year they were upward or $l3O00, =
OO0 in 1887 more than $14 000, 900. Benef1-
cence has other forms than that Of money.
Great remedies are among the most prec-
ious legacies beQueathed to mankind.
Prominent among these Is Hostetter
Stomach Bitters, most effective remedy
for and preventive Of malaria which
often battles other curatives. Equally EN-
cacious is the Bitters in cases OF dyspep-
sia, constipation, rheumatism. nervous
ness. biliousness and loss Of appetite ana

Saving Flake Gold.

IL is well-known that in many of the
placer claims of the west the gold
exists in fiaky form or so finely pow
dered that it is impossible to save it
by the ordinary methods of sluicing.
The flake gold floats off on the sur
face of the water and the -four gold
is 50 fine and light that but little of
it reaches the rifles of the sluice
boxes. Many devices have been in
vented for the purpose of saving their
gold, but up to the present time none
have proved of practical value. The
successful machine will be money
maker for the inventor and all who
may be associated with him. as it is
well-known that there are many ex.
tremely rich placers. the gold from
which cannot be saved with present
methods. Benjamin Hastings, super.
intendenf of the Midnight Gold Min.
ing Company at Midnight. New Mex.
leo, writes the Republican that a
young man in that camp has invented
machine which he is satisfied will
meet the desired conditions. He says
that the placers along the Colorado

in flake gold. and he is certain that
