Omaha, March 22.-The body of the
late Mrs. John NJ. Thurston was fol-

out and many from Nebraska and
other states were in attendance. The
body was brought from Washington
in a special car. At the house private
services were held, after which the
casket was removed to All Saints

presided over the renditica of the Prot
estant Episcopal ritual for the burial
of the dead. In his sermon the min
lister referred feelingly TO the mission
of Mrs. Thurston to Cuba which cost
her her life. He paid a high tribute to
her character as a woman and to the
intense patriotism and human inspira-
ton that led her to accompany her
husband on the trip from which he re-
turned to bury her.

Kalispell. Mont. March 15.-The gold
developments along the Yakt river In tbs
Northwestern part of the Flathead
country are beginning to get interesting
and a boom is looked for this spring.
The town of S~ylvanite has grown In a
year from a few tents to a substantial place
OF 600 people with good business blocks,
stores, a newspaper. hotels. etc. This
IS the result of the building of two gold
stamp mills, the keystone with ten
stamps crushing tArty-ive tons of ST
ore daily. and the Gold Flint. with twenty
stamps and six concentrators. handling
seventy tons a day. Another town. called
Red Top with 200 population. Is located
Ave miles north. The ountry has not
been half prospected and new quartz and
placer claims are constantly being found
The prospect Is that 1893 will do as much
for the Yak district as any gold bearing
section of equal area in Alaska. As this
new gold territory is all within easy
reach OF the line of the Great Northern
railway. there is no danger of being far
from supplies. and the climate Is as fine
as any on the continent.
