PROsPECToRs KILLED
 BY SAVAGE INDIANS.
Eighteen In One Party Were Ship. wrecked and Then Murdered
 In Ala@ka

Port Townsend, Nov 24.--The num- Der of lives lost in the rush to Alaska in search of gold will probably never be known, and the manner in which hun dreds of persons who have met death in the wilds of Alaska will ever remain the subject of speculation among friends and relatives. The latest reports tell of the fate of Is persons who are said to have been killed while trying to enter the mouth of the Kuskokwim river last June on the little steamer Jesse. The story has just been brought from that section in 9 letter to Barneson and Chll- cote, who were part owners of the wrecked steamer.
 The letter was written by hunter and trader on Nunivak island, 100 miles from the mouth of the Kuskokwim, and in it he claims to have positive informa- tion that all hands were rescued from the steamer and the barge when they went ashore in the breakers, only to meet death at the hands of savages. According to Marsten's letter, his wife, who is an Indian woman, paid visit to her relatives at the mouth of the Kusko- kwim river shortly after the wreck of the Jesse. While there she attended feast given by the Indians, during the progress of which the Indians got drunk on a kind of liquor made by themselves. While indulging in the general debauch they quarreled over the possession of certain articles taken from the murdered shipwrecked crew.
 Her suspicious were aroused by seeing them in possession of many valuable ar- tieles of wearing apparel and watches, breeehloading rifles and an abundant supply of provisions. She made inquiry of her grandmother, an aged squaw, who related to her how, when the Jesse and the barge Minerva went ashore, the In. dians assisted in saving the whites and the cargo of the barge and after the whites had established camp the Indi ans demanded pay for their services. They wanted nearly everything the whites had, not leaving them enough to last the party through the winter. The whites offered a reasonable amount, which did not satisfy the Indians, who immediately commenced planning to take possession of everything.
 A council was held and it was decid. ed to kill all the whites, which was done the next night while they were asleep. The bodies were taken to the sea in ca. noes and thrown overheard. Nothing was known of the fate of the unfortunate prospectors for nearly month after the wreck, when several bodies came ashore badly decomposed The Indians then re- ported that the Jesse and the barge had been wrecked and all lost
 Report was made to an agent of the Alaska Commercial company, who wis. tied the scene and identified the bodies of Captain Murphy and the Rev. Mir Webber, a Moravian missionary, who with his wife and children joined the expedition at Dutch HarDor aud was going to establish mission among the savages who murdered him. It is fur ther stated that the Kuskokwim Indi- ans threaten to stop the whites from prospecting in the Kuskokwim country as they claim 1t is their hunting and fishing reserve.

ADVERTISEMENTS. THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results from a mothers ignorance; or more frequently from a mothers neglect to properly instruct her daughter!
 Tradition says woman must suffer, " and young women are so taught. There is little truth and a great deal of exaggeration in this. If a young woman suffers severely she needs treatment and her mother should see that she gets it.
 Many mothers hesitate to take their daughters to a physician for examina- tion; but no mother need hesitate to write freely about her daughter or herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure the most efficient advice without charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn, Mass. ft
 The following letter from Miss MARIE F. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa., shows what neglect will do, and tells how Mrs. Pinkham helped her:
 My health became so poor that I had to leave school. was tired all the time, and had dreadful pains in my side and back. l was also troubled with irregularity of menses. I was very weak, and lost so much flesh that my friends became alarmed. My mother, who is a firm believer in your remedies from experience, thought per- haps they might benefit me, and wrote you for advice. 1 followed the advice you gave, and used Lydia B. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as you directed, and am now as we'll as I ever was. I have gained flesh and have good color. I am completely cured of rregularity."

A DISHONEST DOMESTIC.
Lawyer T. z. Blakeman's Mongolian Scoops Up the Family Jewelry
 and Decamps.

Until Sunday afternoon the household of T. E. Blakeman, an attorney residing at 1907 Cough street, was the proud pos sessor of a Mongolian servant whose equal would be hard to find in the kitchen and about the house in general, but un- fortunately for the ladies of the family there was too much faith repoSed in John" and there is now weeping and wailing in the home that was happy be- fore he departed. It is not at the Mon golians sudden leaving, however, that all this sorrow is to be found at the Blake man residence, but in Johns going he scooped up the entire stock of jewelry be- longing to the ladies of the family. Dia- mond rings of milky hue and clusters of prismatic elegance, with gold watches, bracelets, brooches and diamond pins, be- sides all the loose coin that was left with in his reach, disappeared at the same time that the dutiful servant bade the family a silent adieu, which was on Sun day afternoon.
 The Mongolian had been left at home while the family went out to see the boys in blue at Camp Merritt, and on return they found that John had also gone out and with him all the valuables that he could gather up. The upper office was in formed of the Mongolan's flight and the venerable Chief sent for two of his best thief catcherS and put them on the case. Immediately after the house was visited by Detectives Bee and Harper, who with grief and sorrow heard the pitiful tales of trap the Mongolian without any very great amount of exertion on their part they suggested that the back gate be nailed from the inside and regular or dinary everyday policeman in citizens clothes be placed on duty in Austin street to watch for the Chinamans return dur ing the night, when it was supposed e would return for his everyday working duds But John was too wary to be caught with chaff; he failed to return, and as a consequence the archives of the upper of- flee arc one notch short on their splendid record of Forty years experience as d thief-catching institution.
