 ''lt Is worth noting here that, al- though placer mines are called the ''poor mans diggings," 1t costs more money to get gold out of placers than out of quarts. The placer mines of all countries attest to the truth of this as- sertion. nor is Klondike any exception. Rather, perhaps, does it heavily in- dorse it's correctness, for they who have studied the matter assert that every dollar that comes out of klon- dike this year will have cost S6 to get.

Will Be Mustered Out.

Albany, Ga. Jan. 9. The First Ter ritorial regiment of the Third brigade yesterday received orders that it would be mustered out at once, and that the men would receive transportation to their respective homes. This morning Colonel McC Ord ordered all the men to appear en masse in the dress parade grounds, where he read the order. The boys celebrated the good news all day by shooting firecrackers and discharg- ing their krag-]orgensen rifles. The men expect to be home in two weeks. This practically breaks up the Third brigade. to which the Second Missouri belongs.

A FEW WORDS ON MINING.
In These Days of Progression Mining ls
 Not Chased as a Gamble.


 One often hears the expression that mining is gamble" To some extent il is. and then, again, it is not. It de- bends largely on the features connected with each particular enterprise. Re- ferring to the subject. the Mining Re- view says:
 Mining as at present conducted has ceased to be gamble. The system now in use for reducing and working ores has reduced mining to certainty, so that, given certain quantity of ore, it can be determined whether the vein from which the ore was taken will pay to work or not.
 1.-The investor is no longer called up- on to take his chances. Ore that will yield $5 per ton, and even less, can, by the methods now in use, be made to pay. All that is necessary in addition to the ore is efficient management. But mining is not exceptional in that

1t Is GOOD TO BE HERE.

A gentleman tells US that he was
recently in Vermont. While rid
ing along the street, the gentleman
with him said, "Your ears are
freezing,' and hastily handed him
a wooden scarf to wrap up his ears.
Going a short distance they went
into a drug store, on entering the
store, the druggist said good
morning, and added, otis a fine
bright day-warm like spring
time.o And it was warm winter
weather for Vermont.
Yet, Vermont is Il wealthy State,
and its people are growing richer
all the time. If they possessed

work, what would those New Eng
land people accomplish But the
men of Vermont are not superior
lin intelligence to the menof North
Carolina Physically, morally and
intellectually the people of the Old
North State have no superior on
the face of the earth.
The fact Is, it is so easy to make
a living here, we do not put forth
our best energies in the develop
ment of the wonderful resources
of this favored land. But the tide
is beginning to turn. The shuttle
and loom are already singing the
song of Southern independence,
and by the time the babe of to-day
stands on the border of the great
field of manhood, and his eyes res
on North Carolina, he will behold
one of the richest sections of this
great American republic.

In every civilized country rich and
poor alike have found restored health
and new vigor in Paine's celery com
pound.
"Hard-working people of ordinary
means are to be congratulated" says
an English writer. in reviewing the
scientific work of the last quarter of
a century, upon having SO easily
within their reach to-day a remedy
which the wealthiest and most inf1u-
entail persons must themselves use,
if they would get the best that mod
ern medical skill offers. Paine's Gel
cry compound proves that the science
of medicine has kept pace with the
wonderful progress which character
ICES the life of the present genera
ton"
The astonishing reputation that
this most wonderful of all remedies
has acquired is principally due to
the word of-mouth recommendation
and endorsement OF men ~ women
of the highest business and social
standing, as well as those in humber
but no less important positions who
have themselves discovered its
merits.
Adeline, Countess Schimmelmann,
whose portrait is here given. in q re-
cent letter TO the Wells & Richard
son Company, speaks of friends of
hers who have been benefited by
Paine's celery compound, and who
first advised her to recommend it to
her sick friends.
The countess, as is well-known, is
a prominent member of the Danish
court. Her coming to this country
has been much talked of. Her real

object was one of charity, for she is
using her great wealth and influence
this winter in assisting the Danish
people in the western states. She is
stopping in Chicago, and from there
writes her straightforward endorse
ment of Paine's celery compound.
Women who are easily excited,
who waste energy worrying over
trifes, who are often sufferers from
sick headache and nervousness,
should read the plain, unbiased
statements of what Paine's celery
compound has done for other wo-
men.
Among the diseases that cause a
vast amount of needless suffering
that may be readily cured by Paine's
celery compound are biliousness,
torpid liver, headaches, sleepless-
ness, dizziness, constipation, dys-
pepsia and general nervousness and
debility.
No man or woman who is contlnu-
ally ailing can successfully carry on
business, or be of much real comfort
to the household.
And only a thoroughly nourished
body hat has all the used-up, and
therefore harmful, material promptly
removed from the blood and tissues
can be healthy. When either of these
vital conditions of adequate repair
or elimination are incompletely done,
the organs need just such help as
Paine's celery compound is fitted to
give. No other remedy is SO valu-
able.
Where other remedies have failed,
Paine's celery compound will sue
coed.

THR EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to h r and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIa SYRUP
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIs SYRUP Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of che CALI
FoRNIA FIe SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions Of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not grippe nor

The indictment is that of 1894.
'Dreyfus answered cautiously all
questions The judge was fair, but
evidently not friendly He showed
himself, however, sensible and sober
minded and impressed every one ia
vorably. The accused is unfortunate
in not being able, apart from his suf-
ferings as told by others, to command
sympathy. His countenance only ex-
pressed a wish to hide his feelings It
is a reticent face, but not bad one.
One would like it to be more frank.
The voice is not pleasing and the die
tor is less so.
"Dreyfus seems without dramatic
feeling and Acks ease in all things.
However, he passed today through a
cruel ordeal. It was trying, after the
experience of the last five years, to find
himself in the full blaze of publicity
and stared at and scrutiniZed by 700
observers"
The court is composed as follows:

Second Day of the Trial. Q
Rennes, Aug 9-The Dreyfus trial
began on the second day at $50 a. m
and was conducted in secret, because
the celebrated dossier was before the
court. This precious bundle of dOcu-

room contiguous to the court room
This box is guarded night and day by
| an officer specially detailed for this
duty. The court sat until II: 45 a. m.
and then adjourned for the day. The
correspondent of the Associated Press
learns that the court-martial was able
during the session to consider only
part of the dossier. The documents
were submitted to the judges in the
order in which they were classified.
General Chanoine gave lucid explana-
tons of the points which were not
clear to Colonel Jouaust. General
Chanoine took the documents individ-
ually and explained them. Major Car
riere will later on state the conclusion
he draws from the dossier.
