A New Railroad Right-0f-way.

The N. P. railroad company has en-
gagged corps of engineers and the
usual assistants to established railroad
survey up the Clearwater river from
the present line point near the
mouth of the Potlatch creek.
The object of the survey and the
destination are secret. The only in-
formation vouchsafed to this contract
ing engineers Is that the work will
continue for six weeks. The average
distance covered by such surveyors is
two miles day. 1t Is therefore evil
dent that this projected extension is to
appropriate the old Alph Beal pass
over the Bitter Root mountains. The
acquired rights of way over this su-
perior route have now expired hy
limitations, and ii Is believed in rail-
road circles in the absence of definite
information that a Clearwater route as
well as a Snake river route are objects
to be de-lred by this railway company
There has been veritable scramble for
possession for possessory rights of way
along the Snake above Lewiston aud
tins winter campaign in the heart of
the Bitter Roots develops another
plausible desire to be first upon an inn
portant natural mountain pass.
This pass is doubtless one of the
greatest accessories to the future devel-
opment OF the railway systems of the
interior of our country. Through this
pass is the shortest route by 100 miles
from the Inland Empire to the Rocky
mountain region and to the great mar
kets of the Mississippi valley. The
control of the Beal pass next 10 the
River valley pass is the most desirable
railway acquisition ever offered for a
gratuitous acce,,tance.

"Nellie, on the other hand, acquired

in the line Of household work. She
went to cooking school and did every
thing necessary TO make a first-clasS

"And now that it's all over. which

The Sea Gold Man Says He Wants 10
Make Amends to His Dupes.
EDGARTOWN, Mass, Oct. 1.-THE
Rev. Prescott Ford Jernegan has writ
ten TO his parents here that he intends
to leave his present residence in Bel
gium and return to America to make
amends for his dealings with his fell
low men in the matter of sea water
gold and the Electrolytic Marine Salts
company, so far as he is able to do so.
Jernegan is contrite and proposes up
en- his arrival to hand over his ready
cash and bonds, to be disposed of by
the directors Of the salts company or
trustworthy persons. and then stand
trial IL he be liable TO the law or is In
dictable.
His letter was short and merely stat
ed his intention, which was induced, he
said, by the fact that the money was
a curse to him and he enjoyed no peace
of mind. He has concluded that a
straightforward course is the best for
him. If he was guilty of crime, he
should pay the penalty. His letter did
not fix his time of sailing but intimated
that it might not be until he had hao
letters from his family here.
His father, an aged whaling captain
does not approve of his return. He nat
urally hates the idea Of reopening the
scandal of a few months back and the
probability Of resultant shame to his soI
and name.
He also believes it likely that the di
rectors of the gold company may no
severally care to have Prescott return
He attributes his sons desire TO com'
back to the chronic discomfort of Pres
cott's wife.

CANTON, o.. Oct. 1.-THE funeral Of
George d. Saxton occurred at 2 o'clock
from the Barber residence. The services
were private and were conducted by
Rev. o. d. Milligan of the First Pres
byterian church.
To the many floral offerings sent to
the president and members of the fam
lily have been added a flood Of tele-
grams and letters from sympathizing
friends in all parts of the world
Among the messages received was
cablegram of coincidence to the presi-
dent and the family from the American
peace commissioners in Paris.
Messages were also received from the
United States embassy in London. from
the German minister. and in fact from
nearly all of the diplomats and repre-
sentatives abroad. The diplomatic corps
at Washington has been particularly
generous in it's expressions and tokens
of sympathy TO the president and TO the
afflicted family.
In his brief walks about the city for
exercise. as well as about the house,
people of all classes, worl0ingmen and
business and professional men, have ev-
erywhere given to the president express
sions of deepest sympathy and condo-
lence 10 lne ldinlly III AhSil Setu oiitAN
tion.
The law is taking it's course in the
prosecution of Mrs. George, and so far
no special assistance TO the prosecuting
attorney has been announced as COM
ing from the family. and it is not be-
lieved that so far as they are concern
ed they will in any way endeavor to
add to the usual agencies of prosecut-
ing criminal cases in the courts here.
While the prosecuting attorney and
court officials are understood to have
had conferences with members of the
family, it is not believed the least ac-
ton will be taken looking toward extra
efforts or measures in the prosecution

gree.

it is no excuse for neglect; and lack Of
time is n very unreasonable plea to

Wash them frequently at night in
corn meal, and apply little sweet OIL

DO not use knife or sharp point in
cleaning the nails, but accomplish Il
with soap and brush or some blunt in

base with a towel when the fingers are
wet, and never scrape it with any OF
the little sharp instruments in your
