1t must be very annoying to General
Dodge that he cannot lay hands on Cen
eral Sangster, who knows so much about
Camp Thomas and who made an official
report condemning the selection of the
camp and its construction, and criticising
the general and medical management, as
well as the rations. besides making a
positive denial of the Alger statement
that the men and their company officers
are alone to blame for the sickness. When
the Alger Relief Commission arranged
its dates for a weeks run at Lexington
1t seemed inevitable that General Sang
ster would be heard. He had been there
for weeks and there was no reason to
doubt he would stay. But unfortunately
there came an order sending General
Sangster away down South for some pur-
pose.

No one can read the story of that men,
orable flight of David, in the days
Of the kings Of Israel, without trying to
picture the wild, pathetic and impress
sive scene. The old king. escaping from
his traitor son, whom he has loved as

in sudden haste and goes forth from
the city in fear Of the edge of the sword

some of his chiefs to return, since there
is no need that mere loyalty. to him

heart-broken king and his faithful fol-
lowers. In the garb of the desert-a
mere handful Of men in comparison

row road, hardly more than a goat
path. over a rough and broken country
that is all: and yet it is one of the pic
lures which come to us with a peculiar
impressiveness out of the dim dawn of
history and tradition. Those who read
1t may easily understand the feeling
which led the pilgrim of the Middle
Ages to wander. staff in hand and san
dal on foot. dressed in simple raiment,
over the scenes in which these primitive
men lived. loved, fought and evolved
their simple and grand religion.
The idea Of the German Emperor and
Empress. however. is slightly different.
They feel that 1t would be the proper
thjnp for 70 tal
the Holy Land-all their ancestors did
when there was occasion, and it is a
thing which would be naturally expect
ed Of the Hohenzollerns. But when 1t
comes to climbing a mule track to pay
reverence to the scenes In which the
kings of Israel lived, moved and had
their being. that is Il little too much.
The medieval pilgrims rude imagina-
ton was stirred quite easily by the
mere neighborhood in which he hap
pened to be; the modern pilgrim needs
some accessories. When he goes pic
nicking at the tomb of Jehoshaphat he
wants enough to eat, and band of mu-
sic along. He likes especially well to go
on electric cars. or in some way which

Therefore. in obedience to the spirit of
the age. the Empress of Germany sets
men-and women-at work to make a
macadamized road for her to travel on

loyal subjects follow her example with
the alacrity and docility thought prop

webbed with electric wires, motor cars
running to all the points of interest, ex-
cursions at reduced rates to Bethlehem
and Nazareth, and the Cave of Adullam
fitted up with arc lamps and side
shows. The ancient Crusaders were
not very wise in their generation, but
one could wish that If such a consum-
nation ever does take place, a few hun
dred of these knights and their lively
and undaunted followers could be let
loose on the renovated Holy Land, with
Peter the Hermit to explain their

Most people who have given any atten-
tion to the matter are convinced that
there is more politics mixed up in the
case of Capt. Carter than has yet ap-
peared upon the surface. 1t has been de-
monstrated that Capt. Carter has some
very powerful friends at court to be able
to hold up the findings of court-martial
for more than six months, particularly
when the verdictcof the court was unani-
nous and was rendered on evidence that
prevented any other verdict than that of
conviction. The court must have BEEN
from what is known now, made up of
persons friendly to Capt. Carter. But for
the pending Philippine bond job the inside
history of the Garter case might have
made the sensational scandal of the Nc
Kinley Administration. However, now it
is likely only TO figure in history as
merely a minor incident fragment, so
to speak, in gigantic mosaic of jobbery
and rascality. i, "a

IT would be strange if a Don Quix-
ote should appear at any time without
his Sancho, or a Robinson Crusoe
without his man Friday, and we are
therefore by no means surprised that
General Ballaine has found a sword
bearer, though it be our somewhat
conservative and by no means
warlike little friend, the Palladium.
" Polly" says that the General "has
only exercised that prerogative which
belongs to every American citizen"-of
making fool of himself. The funny
part of the whole matter is, that our
English neighbors have taken the
General at his own estimate, without
the usual inquiry as to antecedents
and record. Our contemporary like
wise affirms that the Generals stric-
lures regarding New York, are sup
ported by facts. Will he be so kind
as to state some of the main specifica-
tions for the Indictment?

The Alchemist's Dream Realized.

Chicago's gold factory is said to be
in actual operation. 1t will be re-
membered that the announcement was
made several weeks ago that Mr..
Brice, of Chicago, had discovered a
process by which gold could be man
ufactured from some cheap substances,
which may be obtained wherever clay
exists. The Chicago Record of the
Goth ult. says:
" Under new furnace, with a
capacity of a ton of ore an hour, f. G..
Brice lighted the fires last night at his
gold factory Thirty-ninth street and
Lowe avenue. Two other furnaces were
at white heat and under two more the
fires we're drawn for repairs. The heat
used is SO intense that flash wall is
being put in the two idle furnanes.
Fires are not drawn night or day. A
night force succeeds the day men and
the manufacture OF gold moves steadily
on.
:" In two weeks the company will erect
a smelling plant at the Utah mines,
winch Will reduce the ores so that an
amount of the crude material on which
the company now pays freight to
Chicago will be left at the mines. This
will greatly increase the output of the
Chicago plant. MIR. Brice sat in his
working clothes at his desk yesterday
and discussed his work. He said:
The factory has come up to our ex-
pectations. We have turned out ore and
sold the product-part of it in Chicago
and part of it in Jersey City. We have
paid our running expenses and made
some profit. People expect too much
of US. They do not realize the amount
of work and money needed to get plant
of this kind in operation. We have not
been doing any talking, but the stock
holders are satisfied. There is no stock
for sale by the company nor by any of
the large shareholders.

not high-sounding modification of the

hope that the gaseous nature of bal
looms in general has not entered into
the Reveille's estimate of the General,

Experience of a Montana Miner.

=. J. Holland, a well known Butte
miner, gives the Anaconda (Mont.)
Standard, some OF the results of his
observation In and Out Of Dawson,
y trip he has just completed. He
SAYS:
"The tcrrors Of klondike are Iii.
mini>h"d by hall, from personal OBJ
scrvation There will be no starva
ton in Klondikc this winter, even il
no relief expedition Is sent in, al
though the inhabitants OF the country
will have to husband their stores and
pcrchance, may have to reduce thcll
rations somewhat in order to insure
their supplies lasting through the
winter. Neither is the journey to the
new land of gold so arduous as has
been painted" His party met with
little difficulty in the trip. He scouts
the idea OF the feasibility of the gov.
eminent sending in a reindeer relic
expedition, or any other kind, in fact.
Mr.. Holland LETT Anaconda August
18th. After arriving at Dawson they
got two or three good lays, as they are
called, sunk three shafts to bedrock
and found they had good ground, and
then after staying about two months
found they would not be able to oper-
ate to advantage this winter, so they
sold their outfits and came out to
wait until spring before beginning ac-
tive operations. The reason they
could not work to advantage this win
ter was due to shortage of candles,
which were very scarce, and selling at
dollar apiece and very few to be had
at that. This fact will greatly di-
minish the output of the country this
winter.
Continuing his narrative, Mr.. Hol-
land said: "In the early part of No
vember we started back. There were
five in the party, my two partners, a
man named William King from Cali
fornia and George Root of Flathead.
We had 200 pounds of an outfit each
upon starting, which we packed on
sleds, and each one drew his sled.
The Yukon had commenced to freeze
before we started, so we decided TO
come out by the same route by which
we went in. We travelled on the ice
along the shores for 165 miles. Then
the ice jams got so bad it was i'm
possible to haul our sleds; so we
abandoned them and threw away
everything we did not absolutely need.
My two partners and Root thought it
safe to come lighter than King or
myself did, so we parted company as,
with their lighter packs, they could
travel much faster than we could.
King and 1 remained together and
travelled easy, which accounts for the
others getting home ahead of us. We
packed 80 pounds each and made the
journey to Dyea in just Sc days of
travel and 40 days from the time we
left Dawson, as we laid up two days
for ice gorges to break and two days
to rest.
1--WE carried no blankets, but had a
bearskin sleeping bag big enough for
us both to get into, and when night
would come we would cut some
boughs, lay our bag on them and
crawl inside. Then we would draw
the mouth up tight and in 20 min
utes we would be as warm as though
we were in bed at home. Then we
could open the mouth enough for air
and sleep perfectly comfortable"
Mr.. Holland arrived at Anaconda in
time to spend the New Year at home.
He will return to Dawson in the
spring.
