A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
ScrofuIous Humors How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula ON his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form Of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned"

You can buy Hoods Sarsaparilla of all

ANTOINE BURY AGAIN.
The Erratic Youth Has Not the
Freedom of the City.

Antoine Bury was in town yesterday
and was thrown into Jail, merely on
suspicion that ne might do harm TO
somebody Bury, who lives at Wood
land. formerly resided in this city, and
is an eccentric character. He was at
one time declared insane, and spent
several months in the Stockton Asy-
lurn, whence he was discharged as
cured.
Bury subsequently paid court to
young lady in this city, and because
she refused to have anything to do
with him he shot at her. A couple OF
months ago he visited Sacramento and
went to a private sanitarium on G
street. where he took possession and
held the fort with a revolver until the
police gathered him in. He was then
in liquor.
The mother Of the young woman
whom Bury once attempted to
shoot saw him on the street yesterday
and impaired her information TO Dis
trict Attorney Ryan, who notified the
police, and the patrol wagon was
sent out to bring Bury in. He was not
then found, but sometime afterward
Officer Talbot located him and took him
to the police station.
Bury was duly sober when arrested.
but told the officers he had been intox-
icated on Thursday night He had no
weapons Of any kind on his person,

YUKON DREDGING SCHEME.
Sacramentans Said to be Interest
ed in the Enterprise.


Last evenings San Francisco "Bul-
letin" contained the following state
ment:
"a number of capitalists. we'll known
in this city, are discussing PROPOSE
ton to form company with the object
of dredging the Yukon River for gold.
Among those most prominently en-
gagged in the matter are j. b. Wright,
Division Superintendent of the South
ern Pacific, located at Sacramento;
Colonel T. d. Chadbourne, member
Of the State Board of Harbor Commits
sioners; George Ecker of Alameda,
James Moody, a prominent banker OF
Truckee, and Captain Roberts. one of
the principals in the Sacramento Trans
portation Company.
AS yet the proposition has not been
fully developed and no definite conclu-
sions have been reached. However, ii
the plans are successfully carried out
complete dredging apparatus Will be
shipped to ST Michael and thence up
the Yukon to the point selected.
The claim is owned by Ecker. who
two years ago made a trip TO the gold
fields and was the first to bring back
the story published in the Bulletin of
the journey over Chillkoot Pass of Mr..
and Mrs Clarence Berry. 1t is entire
ly in American territory, and though
not rich to the pan, is extensive, and it
is expected will pay handsomely If
handled by q dredger"

WHERE Is THE OWNER OF IT?
HORSE FOUND ON THE ROAD TO
WASHINGTON LAKE.
Tied to a Bush, With a Hunting
Wagon Near and the Boat
Missing.

/ Yesterday a man living in this city
notified Constable Frommelt of Wash
| ington that a horse had been tied up
in the tuies, on the road to Washington
Lake, that had been tired there several
days, and had not had anything to eat.
He told Frommelt that he had been
out hunting in that vicinity several
days age, and at that time, when he
put his boat into the water there were
no marks of any other boat having
been put in there, but that when he
went back yesterday he found marks
where a boat had been put in, but none
where it had been taken out. He said
that it was evident the horse had been
tied up fol- several days, as there had
| been some hay in front of him, but
| it was gone and he had himself given
the horse water for two days, but not
wishing to see him suffer longer, had
reported the case.
Constable Frommelt and Deputy Con
stable Harms went out to the spot and
found the horse tied to a bunch of will
low just this side of the tules. and in a
starving condition. He had torn up the
ground where he stood and had eaten
/ the trees and everything possible win
| III T6acn. VINE released ne was SO nun
cry that he could hardly be restrained
! from rushing away in search of food.
/ The Constables found good wagon,
/ rugged for hunting and with black
Wheels the left shaft bound around
with hoop iron. The horse was a
brown cne with some white on the left
hind foot. There had been no tracks
made by the wagon since the last rain,
and no signs of any one having been
around it. 1t contained nothing but
some sacks that had been used to keep
the boat from rubbing.
Inquiry was made last night at the
different gun stores and among the
sportsmen, but none could be found
who knew to whom the rig belonged, or
who had heard of any missing hunters.
1t LOOKS as if some one might have
gone i'll his boat from the place where
! the morse was tied and met with Some
accident, fatal or otherwise, that pre-
vented his return, and it may be that
| the rig came over from Davisville or
vicinity. The horse and wagon We're
taken to Washington and cared for.
