SAYS IT IS NOT TRUE
Secretary Gage Denies a sensa-
tional Report.
HIS RESIGNATION NOT RENDERED.
Has No Reason t. Believe That HIS
Views on Leading Questions Il
Policy Are Notin Accord with
Those of the President.

Washington, Dec. 29.-Secretary Gage
was seen Tuesday on his return from
New York and questioned as to the
truth Of the published report that he
had rendered his resignation to the
president and that it had been firmly
declined with many expressions Of con
fidence and appreciation of his ability
as shown in his administration of the
treasury department. Mr.. Gage was not
inclined to discuss the matter ut length,
but said that he had not rendered his
resignation nor had he any reason to
believe that he and the president were
not in substantial accord on the great
questions now before the country. The
report, he said, probably sprung from q
remark he had made to intimate friends,
to the effect that not for anything
would he embarrass the president and
if he saw that he was doing this he
would resign at once. He added: "A
cabinet officer ought always to be and
Is ready to surrender his office at the
call of his chief, the executive, but I
have o the slightest reason to believe
that such action on my part is even re-
motely desired by the president. The
desires of other people in hat direction
l am not disposed to consider"

NOT ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD.

Afact often overlooked, or not a.
ways understood, is that women suf-
fer as much from distressing kidney
bladder troubles as the men. The
womb is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, and for that rea-
son any distress, disease or inconven-
fence manifested in the kidneys, back,
bladder, or urinary passages is often,
by mistake, attributed TO female
weakness or womb trouble of some
sort.
The error is easily made and may
be as easily avoided oy setting urine
aside for twenty-four hours; a sedi-
ment or settling is evidence that your
kidneys and bladder need doctoring.
If you have pain Or dull aching in
the back, pass water too frequently,
or scanty supply, with smartinge or
burning-these are also convincing
proofs of kidney trouble. If you have
doctored without benefit, try DIR.

Seattle, Wash, Dec. 29.-The steamer

vices from Dawson City up to November

out exception, say there will be no

spring. When informed of the action
being taken by the United States gov
eminent to send it a relief expedition,
they said it was unnecessary and un-
called for. Several thousand men have
gonefromD awsont o Fort Yukon, where
there is an unlimited supply of pro-

have three regular meals every day
and have enough supplies in sight to

he answered with confusion,
s you admit that this was So" she
said. "Well, a day might come when
policy might breed the thought and
love, grown weary, prove not warm
enough to wither it. Also it seems
hat even now, you threaten these, my
companions, with death, should refuse
you your desire"
"If you should refuse me my desire,
Maya, perhaps it will be for a secret
reason of your own" and he scowled at
the senior angrily, "a reason that the
death of these men, or n of them, will
remove"
BE sure Of thing, Tikal," she broke
in sharply, shat such a wicked deed
would put an end forever to your hopes
Of making me your wife. Now listen;
l have heard your words and they have
touched me somewhat, for / think that
although you have broken your oath to
my father, and your troth with me, at
heart you are honest in your love. Still
l can give you no answer now, and for
this reason, that the answer does not
lie within me, but rather with the gods.
Tomorrow night we appear before
the High Court of the Council of the
Heart, and you yourself shall set the
several portions of the talisman in the
symbol that is on the altar in the sane
tuary, when the god shall declare his
purpose. BY that will and not by my
own l must be guided in this and in all
other things!" Tilkal thought awhile
and answered.:
"And if nothing follows this cere-
mony and the oracles of the gods are
silent, what them"
"Then, Tikal," she answered, softly,
'syou may ask me again if / will be-
come your wife, and perhaps if the
council suffers it / shall not say you
nay. And now farewell, for grief Still
shadows me, and l can talk no more"
