During the civil war, as well as in our late war with Spain, diar- rhpa was one of the most trouble some diseases the army had to contend with. In many instan- ces It became chronic and the old soldiers will suffer from it. Mr, David Taylor of Wind Ridge, Greene county, Pa, is one of these. He uses Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhee Rem edy and says he never found any thing that would give him such quick relief.

IN another column we publish a letter from our toWnSman Geo. Clark who is prospecting in the Windham Bay district. From the letter it would appear that the miners of that section have also become tired of the graft as applied to recorders fees for recording mining location not ices, and have elected mining recorder. The Ketchikan min- CTS will no doubt do likewise, then Wrangel will be in the cold, so far as recording mining locations are concerned.

WE have frequently been ask ed the question:: "Can anybody practice law before the U. s. Commissioner whether they are admitted to the Bar or not?" Our answer is in the affirmative. The office of U. s. Commissioner in Alaska has only the dignity of a Justice of the Peace attached to it, under the law of Oregon before whom any ordinary. clod- hopper can practice law: and it is we'll it is thus ordained, for if it were Otherwise-that is to say that nobody but respectable licensed attorneys of admitted ability could practice before a U. s. Commissioner, it might cause the head of the Commis- sioner to swell to such an extent as to reach the bursting point.

WE understand that the neigh bOrhoOd smart man, ex-offico Justice of the Peace, is advising the miners of s. E. Alaska that they cannot legally elect a min ing recorder from among their number. The right of miners to elect a mining recorder dates back a number of years before the State that produced the J. P. was admitted into the Union, and will always remain a right re- cognized by the Federal Govern ment. Tustin's Code to the con- trary notwithstanding.

HE WON'T PLAY IN THEIR
 YARD ANY MORE.

To Skaguay juries returned verdicts of acquittal in two crlm- inal cases, which causes Freid- ricks, the U. $ District Attorney to lose his temper: announcing in open court that justice cannot be obtained in Skaguay, any re- fuses to try and more of the criminal cases there, which is a privilege usually conceded to the District Attorney. The Bndget hands it back to the General as follows:
 That "moderate exultatiOn is victory's greatest ornament is not more true than that grateful acceptance is the only ornament appendage to defeat. However, God in his infinant wisdom has created, for what purpose depon-  ent knoweth not an element which does not take kindly to defeat in any form. To this class evidently belongs Alaska s prosecuting attorney, General Robert Anxious Freidrick.
 'That the honorable gentle man is sincere in his efforts to discharge his incumbent dnties and earn his salery, no one will deny. But when he intimates yea, boldly asserts, as he did in open court this morning-that justice cannot be obtained at the hands of a Skaguay jury, he shows that he does not accept defeat with that grace that is so admirable in eminent men.
 "Gen. Friedricks spell this morning was an insult to twenty four citizens of Skaguay, a thrust at their honor and an at tempt to smirch the fair name and general good reputation of Skaguay. The eminent attorney had prosecuted two cases in court. The verdicts were ad- verse to him in both instances. If the cases were good ones the verdicts indicate that they were not properly presented to the juries, which bodies are suppos- ed to arrive at conclusions from the evidence as presented. Gen. Freidrick doubtless thought he was right. Twenty, four men said. May, nay Pauline," or words to that effect, hence the venom of the general as express ed in open court this cloudy and otherwise gloomy morning."

see our dear ones suffer while await

see his child, then very sick with Group.
Not finding the doctor in, he left word
for him 10 come at once on his return.
He also bought a bottle OF Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy, which he hoped
would give some relief until the doctor
should arrive. In a few hours he re-
turned, saying the doctor need not
come, as the child was much better.

TO EXTEND TRACKS.
Terms of City's Agreement with
Gen. Gordon.

The City Council met last night as Com
mittee Of the Whole and discussed the tax
ordinance and other matters relating to
next years finances. Owing to several
other matters before the meeting prac-
tically nothing was done with regard to
the budget of 1900.
The most important action of the meet
ing was the consideration and adoption
of a resolution fixing the terms of the
agreement between the city and Gen. W
w. Gordon by which the latter permits
the main eastern outlet for the house
drainage system to be constructed across
his property and in consideration is grant
ed permission for the Central of Georgia
Railway to construct tracks on Bay
street. Gen. Gordon is also given permis-
sion to extend tracks across the Bilbo ca
nal 10 connection of the same with the
tracks of the Plant System.
After the meeting of the Committee of
the Whole Council met as a body in meet
ing under recess and adopted the report
of the committee which provides that the
sewer shall be so constructed across La
mars creek as not to obstruct the drain
age OF the lowlands east, south and west
of it. 1t also provides that the
floodG ate to Lamars creek shall
be removed by the city from its
present location, near ST. Julian street, to
point as near as practicable to line on
the extension Of the north side of Bay
street, which is the northern boundary of
Gen Gordon's property, so that he may
fiji up the basin which now exists between
the present hoodgates and his bridge on
continuation of Bay street, across the
creek.
The proposed sewer will follow a line in
dictated 10 Gen. Gordon by Engineer Chap
man, from the east side of Lamar's creek
to a point just east of the spur track of
the Savannah. Florida and Western Rail-
way, at the northwest angle of the c. A.
L. Lamar estates land, and thence east,
as near as practicable, 10 the southern
boundary of Gen Gordon's land, until near
the Bilbo canal, and then northerly into
the river, within twenty feet of the canal.
The sewer, after crossing Lamar's
creek and until 1t enters the river, is to
be covered solidly with earth.
As a part of the agreement the Council
gave the Central Of Georgia Railway per
mission TO extend it's track across Bay
street, east, across Lamar's creek and the
right of way on Bay street for such
switches and spur tracks as may be need
ed for the handling of business TO and from
Gen. Gordon's property. Gen. Gordon is
also granted permission to cross Bilbo ca
nal with one or more tracks to connect
the Gordon wharf property with the Sa-
Vannah, Florida and Western property
None of the tracks are to be laid until
the sewer has been constructed through
Bay street.

How Cotton Exchange Telegraph
Operator Casey Missed His Break
fast.
Cornelius ]. Casey, Western Union OPP
orator at the Cotton Exchange, had an
experience in the telephone booth yester-
day which put him in an unpleasant and
uncertain frame of mind for about an
hour, which he spent as a prisoner. As
no one was at the exchange Casey was
helpless.
1t all happened when he sauntered in to
telephone for breakfast. He closed the
door on entering the booth. After at
tempting TO telephone, Casey tried the door
to see that everything was all right To
his establishment he was a prisoner
Breakfast was then minor consideration
and devising q means of escape. took
precedence. Central was made aware of
the trouble, but it is said the reply to
Casey's appeal for help was that there
was no one to send to him. He remained
a prisoner until Supt. Merrihew, Assist
ant Bulcken and others arrived. They
took the top off the booth and allowed
Casey TO climb out
AS a subject of suspicion the telephone
booth now takes rank with Liverpool QUO
