The pace which this paper has set
has evidently been too fast for certain
other parties to follow, hence a last dy-
ing struggle is made to keep the head
above water. 1t is the dying gasp OF
a misguided sheet, the days of which are
already numbered. The TELEGRAM is
here to stay and no spa,modic bursts of
any kind will drive it from its unique
field. Watch for another announcement

Deems America Friendly.

Vienna, May 3 - The semiofficial
Fremdenbatt in the course of an arti-
Gle desgnates the cablegrams which
passed between Emperor William and
President Mckinley last week over the
German cable matter as important
demonstrations of friendship because
they mark the close of a period of dis
turbance of the relations between Ger
many and America. The Fremdenblatt
says that the political aims of the two
countries lie so far apart that it is inn
possible for one to cross the others
path.

WOES OF GOLD SEEKERS.


Seattle, Wash, May 2.-Sixty pros
pectors have arrived here from Copper
River, Alaska. They brought with them
repetition of the stories of privation
and death in the gold regions, and many
bore evidence on their bodies of the eff
fects of scurvy and frost. A man NAM
ed Young hobbled off the vessel on the
stumps of two legs. Another named
Alex Powell had but one foot.
F. c. Goodwin of Oakland, Cal, whose
legs are black with scurVy and whose
knees are bruised by contact with the
ice, says while camped in the interior
his partner, Wesley Schedecker of
Grand Ridge, Ills, fell sick with scurvy
and soon became unable to travel.
Goodwin strapped him on a sled and
started to the coast. After four days
of almost herculean labor, he arrived
at the mouth of the Chitna river but
his partner was frozen stiff TO the sled.
He buried him in the snow.
Continuing his journey to the coast,
he came across a tent in which there
were two men sick with scurVy. They
were Dixon Hutton of Memphis and 7.
b. RAWLINGS of Little Rock Another
man came along at the same time, and
he and Goodwin put Rawlings and Hut
ton on sleds and dragged them to the
coast
Just before the steamship Excelsior
left Nades a big slide was reported on
the glacier, but no particulars We're
| learned. 1t was reported that a party
| of prospectors were coming out from
| the interior, and it was feared that they
| might have been caught in it.
| The government expedition under
| Captain AbeHcrombie was arranging to
| begin the construction of a road into
| the interior when the Excelsior left
| Relief parties with provisions and anti
| scorbutics had been sent into the in
| terror.

'At Freeland on Sunday every saloon
was closed, and the saloonkeepers, who
are thoroughly organized, decided that
next Sunday they will compel the re-
formers to close every drug, cigar and
confectionery store. They were sue
cessful few weeks ago in prohibiting
base ball games by Atlantic league

Henry Lanning, aged "a, of Ross
township, near Shickshinny, met a
horrible death Monday afternoon dur
ing the severe storm which passed over
the county. He had just driven three
horses into the barn and was taking of
their harness when the barn was struck
by lightning and the three horses were
killed. The bolt set the barn on fire
and the wind quickly swept the flames
all over the barn.
Augustin Lanning, his father, and
others in the house, ran to the scene
and saw the three horses lying dead on
the floor, while the young man lay
under one of the horses struggling to
free himself and shrieking for help, for
masses of blazing hay were all around
him.
The father tried to reach him, but
was driven back by the flames. Then
others tried, but were driven back.
Gradually the young mans cries ceased,
and soon after the barn fell in. Three
hours after the fire started the body
was recovered.
