NEW LIFE IN DESERTED TOWN.
Grable's Money In Twenty-Four
Hours Turns Gaiena Into n
Bustiing Metropolis.

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.-The Tribune's
Sioux Falls special says: The funds
which Cradle attracted to the West
had a magic effect in the upbuilding
of new industries
The town Of Galena, which had been
dead for a dozen years suddenly
sprang into life again. Houses that
had been empty for years were filled
with people. Half a dozen stores were
opened in a day, and three hotels and
four saloons began business between
sunrise and sunset. Where a few hours
before there were less than twenty-five
persons, by nightfall there were sew
eral hundred men, women and chill
dren.
Francis c. Cradle was the fairy who
had wrought thelchange. y Fer eighteen
months he has been spending from
$4,000 to $4,000 month there, and
people wondered where the money
came from, as the property could not
possibly pay any considerable amount.
Once in a while a carload of East
ern capitalists would arrive in Dead
wood and would be Wined and dined by
Cradle. They were then driven to the
property and plans for smelters and
stamp mills were discussed, and more
money was advanced.
It is believed by many that the Union
Hill property may eventually be profit
able, and it is possible that the prop
erty at Edgemont may be worth some
thing

that he could not stand the strain
of two months campaign for the
nomination and then another month OF
electioneering.
He wanted it distinctly understood
that he was not a candidate for mayor
1t was time, however, that the Republi-
cans of the Eighth ward indorse some
candidate as their standard bearer. He
mentioned the names of Feldhauser
Donahower and Bigelow as being prom
inently mentioned for the position, and
last, but not least, that gallant war
horse, Col. Kiefer''
Loud applause greeted the mention
of Col. Kiefet's name, and Louis Nor
mandin was on his feet in an instant
to formally nominate Col. Kiefer for
mayor.
ing was a Republican one, and only
persons who affiliated with the party
were entitled to speak.
This was resented by Mr.. Normandin,
who said he had been a Republican
since 1891, but, as calls had been made
for Charles J. Berryhill, the Seventh
ward "spellbinder," Mr. Normandin
subsided for the time being.
Mr.. Berryhill said it would be a ca
lamity to have the Democrats again
secure control of the cl<y. The Demo-
- SSAN Pc'A AAO was SoIcu " say, NeAo
divided, and this meant Republican
success. The sentiment In the Seventh
ward was that any man nominated by
the Republicans would be elected. The
people Of the Seventh ward, however,
were for an honest and decent govern
ment.
Mr.. Normandin again secured the
floor, and after being instructed that
he would be limited to ten minutes, de-
al lnf II
mated, he would carry the city by 5000
majority.
Frank Bering thought it unwise that
twenty-four out of sixty precinct COM
mitteemen should get together and in
dorse any one for mayor. Other wards
should be heard from first, especially
Col. Kiefers own ward.
There was some question as to which
ward Col. Kiefer claimed as his home
The question wasn't settled
Chairman Carter said the idea had
been promulgated that Col Kiefer
would not accept the nomination. He
would say that committee had called
on Mr.. Kiefer and had been informed
that, if the Eighth ward Endorsed him.
he would be a candidate.
A. N. Barringer favored Col. Kiefer
being Endorsed. The ward had always
been too slow, and that was the reason
1t always came out at the tail end.
Harvey l.. Mills Jr. was of the opin-
ion the action was too previous. He
feared it might hurt Mr. Kiefer's in
terests and also prevent the ward from
insisting on w. r. Johnson getting a
place near the head of the ticket. Fac
lions in the ward might be raised by
such action. Later, the Endorsement
might be the correct thing.
A rising vote was taken on the mo-
ton of Mr.. Eubank to indorse Col
Kiefer. and then the meeting ad-
journed.
The name of Mayor Doran was not
once mentioned during the evening, but
just as the motion to adjourn was
made some proposed three cheers for
Mayor Griffin.

FISH IN WATERS OF ALASKA.
A Great Abundance of Salmon From
the Columbia River to the
Yukon,
From the Denver Republican,

'"The waters Of Alaska, both oceanic
ana inland, have a food supply equal
to the demands of a continent" said
II. c. Deming, of Vancouver. Nobody
who has not actually seen the teeming
life in these waters can believe the
truth. In Bering sea there are fishing
banks where cod and menhaden are
caught in numbers that put the New
fOundland banks away into the shade
Inc herring runs are enormous. / have
seen the peculiar ripple caused by her
ring shoals extending over the surface
of the sea as far as the eye could reach,
and fishermen tell me they are actually
increasing, notwithstanding the terri
bic slaughter by seals and a blackfish
which not only eats fish, but catches
seals, and when wounded will attack
an ocean steamer.
But it is the salmon runs that ex-
cite the greatest wonder These fish
go up the rivers in the spring and early
summer to spawn, and sometimes in
the shallower parts of a stream are so
thick that they actually climb over
each other, and the Indians and others
secure all they want with clubs and
pitchforks. When they encounter q
perpendicular fall they leap to an as
tonishing height and millions are killed
by falling back to the water and rocks
Only the strongest succeed in reaching
the highest points on the streams, and
they are generally so battered up that
when they are caught on their return
they are not considered fit for food by
the White residents CT the coast
have seen the banks of the Skagit and
SnOqualmie, Washington streams, piled
up two feet high with dead salmon that
are hauled away in immense numbers
to enrich the farm lands, and yet there
is apparently no diminution in the vast
numbers that come from their winter
home in the deep sea each season. Some
idea of the wonderful extent of the sal
mon fisheries may be obtained from the
fact that the salmon runs extend from
the Columbia to the Yukon, including
a coast line of more than 1000 miles.
The strange creatures Of the sea
that are generally found in tropical
waters are also found here. L have
seen an octopus with arms fifteen feet
long caught in Seattle harbor, and sea
anemones, sea cucumbers, sea urchins,
starfish, moonfsh, dogfish and sharks
are to be found everywhere in the
greatest abundance. Rock cod, sen
bass, ling and other game fish of the
sea are very plentiful, and clans are
so abundant that every saloon has clam
bouillon on tap free to every conner.
The Northern Pacific and Boring sea
are wonderful storehouses.

FIRST CHANCE TO SNORT
"TIIAT GALLANT WAR HORSE, COL.
KIEFER,v INDoRsED FOR MAYOR
Thirty-FOur Eighth Ward Citizens
Would Give the Political Hero of
Other Days Another Chance to
Win n Victory or Encounter "A
Decentralization Out of 1t.

THAT gallant warhorse, Col. A. r..
Kiefer,' as he was called by Assem-
blyman Johnson, was Endorsed for
mayor at meeting Of Eighth ward
Republicans last evening.
The Endorsement was not as hearty
as it might have been, because the
secretary who counted noses on the
Endorsement resolution found that,
while there were thirty-four in favor,
there were four against it.
The slim attendance was explained
by F. ]. Eubank and A. n. Barringer
as being the result of work done in the
last two days by those opposed to the
candidacy of Col. Kiefer. Men prom1-
nent in the affairs of the city, it was
stated. had requested, urged and CO.
creed precinct committeeman and Re
publicans to stay away from the meet
ing, and, sad to relate, their efforts
had been partly successful.
S. 3. Carter, chairman OF the Ward
committee, who presided, said that the
impression had gone abroad that the
meeting was called to crowd the candl-
dacy of w. r. Johnson for mayor on
the people This was not correct.
This was Mr. Johnson's cue. He got
on his feet and related how his friends
in the ward had conceived the idea that
1T would be a good thing to have him
as a candidate for mayor. He consld-
cred it an honor to even be mentioned
for the office, and concluded to allow
the boys to go ahead, with the idea
that it would bring the Republicans OF
the ward together. He had decided

STEWART PICTURES SOLD.
High Prices Paid for the Gems of
the Collector.

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-society and Bohemia
rubbed elbows at Chckering hall last night,
when the famous William H. Stewart col
lection of paintings were offered for sale Mr.
and Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney were among
the most eager members Of the throng, and
MIR. Whitney distinguished himself by buying
what proved to be the most expensive pic
ture at the sale He paid 1900 for Fer
tuny's canvas, Court of Justice, Alhambra.' -
There was a full representation of the
picture collectors of this city. c. P. Hunt

chased in England Dagnan-Bouveret for

| part Of Messrs. Murray, Butler and
John D. O'Brien.
| MIR. Butler did not hesitate to say
that Ii such provision were adopted,
II Would nave an influential effect
upon the people at the next convention.
He was confident that they would dis
approve of it. To permit street cars
10 run through Como park along the
route proposed would mean the prac-
tlcal destruction for park purposes of
eighty acres of the park lying south
OF the proposed street car tracks. 1t
would impair the beauty and utility
or Como park, and that the people
would never tolerate, as they were es-
peclally fond of this park.
Mr.. OBr1en said that he quite agreed
with the views Of Mr. Butler, and be-
lieved it would be most injudicious to
adopt the section.
Judge Lusk, Col. Clough, Secretary
INNS and Mr.. Dean, on the other hand
dld not think that the proposed extern
sion of the street railway line would
ln)ure the park. Judge Lusk said that
ne was at first very strongly opposed
to the entrance into the park of any
street railway line, but having since
thoroughly investigated the matter, he
was satisfied that there was no ground
Tor Such objection to the particular
route proposed in Como park only.
Judge Lusk thought it would prove
benefit in this case, principally be-
cause of increasing the means of ac-
cess to the picnic grounds. After some
further informal talk and the consul
tation of city map, the matter, on
motion of Mr. Innis, was laid over for
one week.
The commission then adjourned I'M
til next Monday evening, when Mr..
Butler will submit the chapter govern
ing the fire department.
The absentees last night were

Work Preparatory to His Perform
ance at the Peoples Church.
Had any passer-by sauntered into the Peo-
pies church yesterday afternoon, which he
might have done without cost, for there was
no man on the door," and no audience but
empty chairs within, he would have beheld a
white-haired old gentleman seated at the big
pipe organ.
If his curiosity prompted him to Iinger a
moment the passer-by would have seen the
white-haired old gentleman bend forward and
would have heard a single note from the or
gan, and then another and so on I'D the
scale Then the passer-by might have left
the church without waiting to hear more
But If he had tarried a moment longer and
heard the magnificent outburst of music that
resounded throughout the capacious audito-
rum, he would have put off his business en-
gagements for the next hour.
Guilmant was practicing
The members of the Peoples church and
the music-loving people of st. Paul have
never comprehended the possibilities of the
great organ, that they have heard so many
times. They have heard that it contained 500
pipes, but they have never listened to the
wealth of music they can make at the bid
ding OF master. They will be astonished
when they visit the church tonight to see and
hear the man who is conceded to be the great
est organist in the world
picturesque, patriarchal figure is Gull
mant though he is scarcely of medium
iieish. MS moving Whlte mar almost reaches
his shoulders His face is adorned with a
gray beard and moustache. He has blue eyes
and a complexion inclined to be swarthy He
spoke nothing but French to Prof Oberhoffer
who accompanied him to the church and
turned his music at the organ
Guilmant played the "Berceuse,' by Sa-
lone 1t was noticeable that he seldom manip-
ulated the stops of the organ. Yet such a.
swelling volume of tone such rare sweetness
such effects of distance, such extreme deli
cacy were never suspected, even of this or
gan. The first peal of harmony that responded
as Guilmant placed his hands upon the keys
proclaimed a genius.
No such sounds ever came from it be-
fore.
