NOT inflated,
Mr.. Turrell Thinks There Is Plenty
of Gold in Alaska.

To THE ED1ToR:-The Klondike ka-
leidoscope has furnished a great vari-
ETY. of views since my last letter and
only limitations and want of expert
ence in the art of developing and fin
ishing stand in the way of giving your
readers readable letter.
The gold seekers come in by twos,
tens or forties, buy their outfits and
book by outgoing steamers for Skag-
uay, Dyea, Juneau, Port Waldo, Cop
per River, Cooks Inlet and many min
or lines on the southern coast line of
Alaska. 1t is but natural that some
should inquire, "How is it that all or
nearly all reports of the great wealth
of the gold region are so nearly unani-
mously favorable" Is it possible that
the steamship companies, hotels and
interested parties are working in con-
cert to keep the boom up? My con-
clusion is that there is no doubt what
ever in the matter of rich gold finds.
Nearly all persons who haye come out
from Dawson have come for the pur-
pose of buying more supplies and re-
turning better fitted than before, to
work claims already located or to pros
pect for new ones. All men in this
case are not liars, and the evidence of
great wealth in Alaska and the North
west Territory is unimpeached. An
other natural question is as to how
long the present rush will keep up.
Well, ask something easy. On July
18th last the steamer Portland arrived
in Seattle from St. Michaels, having
on board 81. 100000 of gold. Nearly
every man in the city went wild. The
mayor and many of the leading citi-
zens, with large number of ordinary
mortaIs and many who we're grub
staked by those who could not get
away, made ready and left by the boat
on her return trip in less than twenty
four hours and are in Alaska or the
Klondike now. About $5,OOO,OOO has
thus far been brought over since the
great discoveries. This was all Sc
cured under most unfavorabIe circum-
stances by the comparatively few mon
in the country. If the treasure ships

Mothers who have young daughters of
school age should watch their health more
carefully than their studies. The proper
development of their body is of the first i'm
portance. After the confinement of the
school room, plenty of out-of.door exercise
should be taken. It is better that their
children never learn their a, b, c's than that
by learning them they lose their health.
But all this is self-evident. Everyone
admits it-everyone knows it, but everyone
does not know how to build them up when
once they are broken down. The following
method of one mother, if rightly applied,
may save your daughter:
The young lady was Miss Lucy Barnes,
the fifteen-year-old daughter of Mr.. and

considerable amount Of sickness she has ex.
perienced. She has missed two years of
school on account of her bad health, but now
she will be able to pursue her studies, since
her health has been restored.
Her father was talking of her case to a
newspaper man one day recently. my
daughter has had very serious time Of it, F"
said Mr.. Barnes, "but now we are all happy
to know that she is getting along all right
and is stronger than ever" Asked to relate
the story Of his daughter, Mr.. Barnes con-
hnued: about three years ago, when she
was twelve years old, she began to grow
weak and nervous. It was, of course, deli
cate age for her. She gradually grew weaker
and her nerves were at such tension that
the least little noise would irritate her very
much, and she was very miserable. There
was a continual twitching in the arms and
lower limbs, and we were afraid that she
was going to develop St. Vitus' dance.
"She kept getting worse and finally we
had to take her from her schoo! and her
studies. She was strong and healthy before,

AN OFFICERS THEORY
Lieut.. BeeCher on the Disaster to
The Maine.


Lieut.. A. NJ. Beecher of the United
States Navy, who has been visiting
his mother and sister in this city,
Agent II. L. Beecher at New Ulm, and
the family of Charles T. Howard at
Redfield during the past month, left
here last Thursday for Illinois, where
he will visit day or two, at the end
of which time he expects to be called
to Washington to go into active naval
service on one of the cruisers on the
Eastern coasts.
Just before leaving Redwood Falls
Lieut.. Beecher was looking over the
late New York papers in TIE GAZETTE
Office, and during his perusal chatted
more or less regarding the blowing up
of the Maine. He has been on the
Maine, and was we'll acquainted with
every part of the big ship sunk in Ha-
vana harbor, by reason of an explosion,
and he then stated that it was extreme
ly doubtful as to it having been blown
up by an accident. He was willing
to suspend judgment, like all good
Americans should do, pending the in
vestigation, but he thought that when
the Maine entered Hayana harbor, in
response to a call by Gen. Lee, the
Spanish authorities there assigned the
vessel to place directly over a mine,
of which he is certain there are many
in Havana harbor. The object of the
Spaniards in doing this, would be,
that in case of war breaking out sud-
denly, they would have no difficulty in
blowing up!at least one Yankee vessel.
Having succeeded in getting the
Maine over the mine, he is of the opin-
ion that on the night of the explosion
some Spanish fanatic got into the
electrical room, where the spark is sent
out to set off the mines, and touched
the button that resulted in the ex-
plosion and destruction of the Maine.
In the excitement that followed it
would be very easy for a fanatic to
make his escape.
Lieut.. Beecher stated that the mine
exploded must have contained at least
one thousand pounds of explosive mat
ter. A torpedo contains only about
200 pounds, and it would be impos-
sible for that amount of explosive
matter to have blown up the Maine.
ut makes no difference whether a
fanatic produced the explosion, or not,
if it was caused by the explosion of a
mine in Havana harb"r, Spain is re-
sponsible, and will have to account to
our government" remarked Lieut..
Beecher during the course of his con-
versation. .|.
Lieut.. Beecher was also of the
opinion that if war between the
United States and Spain become a
sure thing it would be naval war
mostly, Cuba being the only battle
ground for infantry. Either country
might lombard coast towns, without
gaining a point, and causing only a
loss of life. The battles would be
fought with war ships on the ocean,
and on the result of the battles so
fought, would probably rest the fate
of the war. Cuba would be the battle
ground for the reason that SPANS
administration in that Island produced

that will reach the outside world in
July again bring large stores of gold
and give good promise for future ship
ments the whole country will be wild.
In the meantime the rush. will in all
probability continue to increase until
the first steamers start for the Yukon
about the 10th of June.
Two steamers have left for the up
per country within the past three days
and there are Is now loading for the
same destination. Every boat leaving
has all the freight and passengers the
freight officer will allow her to carry.
At Dyea and Skaguay the toughs and
buns, in absence of any law or re
straint, are running things with high
hand. Two murders have occurred
and many a we'll disposed man has
been robbed of his money. The gov
eminent has 200 troops on the way to
each place to take hand in the deal.
There are over $4,000 men in these
two places and many more have
worked their way over the passes. The
government relief party for Dawson,
comprising 200 men, $50 mules and
200 tons of supplies are now loading
on the ship Lucille to be towed by q
large tug to Dyea. They do not seem
to have bit of doubt of success and
after looking them over the scheme
seems practicable. Money and enough
force can accomplish things impossible
to individuals. It is an open question
as to whether there would be any starv-
alton if relief was not sent. I have
asked the question as to this of every
man have talked with who has re-
Gently come out and all agree in say
ing that though many in the absence
of help, would have very short rations,
there would be no death.
We see in the relief expedition how
good-natured our Uncle Sam is. He,
at the first, by proclamation, tried to
keep his children out of the country
only to find no heed had been paid to
his warnings aud now comes to their
rescue.
Another side light to show how
good a thing it is to have govern
ment with the force and money to
come to the relief of it's citizens is
shown in the case of revenue cutter
Bear sent some time ago to the relief
of eight men at Point Barrow on the
Arctic ocean. The Bear having, when
$50 miles this side of St. Michaels,
found her further progress stopped by
ice. landed two officers and some men
and the necessary equipment and
stores with instructions to hire guides
and Indians to pack the supplies and
make their way to the destination, 1,44O
miles over the country. A trip of this
kind surely requires courage and great
endurance, and next midsummer when
it will be again possible to reach that
far-off land an expectant country will
gladly greet the return of these in
trepid and loyal men.
