AS the meeting was not attended By
all the citizens Of Holly, it was reeolv-

War on Bad Eggs.
Kloudike Nugget

klOuuike Nugget
 Dr. Goode and Corporal Wilson this week inaugurated crusade against dis eased hen fruit, and the success which they met with earned the everlasting gratitude of their fellow citizens. Among the places visited was a scow owned by one Henderson, where they found and destroyed an almost endless numbe of rotten eggs. Henderson de- livered long dissertation on his know ledge of tho business, the care he de- voted to his stock, etc., and wound up by swallowing two of the eggs that the officers had declared to be bad. The exhibition vas eminently successful so far as Henderson was concerned, but the odor emitted by the eggs all but turned the stomachs of the other two, who exhibited their skepticism by put ting Henderson under arrest. Later he was taken before Colonel Steele, who fined him SlO and costs. The officers also confiscated and destroyed stock of eggs found at Nellie Cachman's place; out of eight eggs broken by them, every one was found to be bad.

FOURTH OF JULY STATEMENT.

Skagway Budget.
 The Douglas Island News of this week showed carefully itemized statement of receipts and expenditures of the Fourth of July fund, which must be very satisfactory to the resi- dents of that place. This particular point is one on which our local officials are open to criticism. Too few state ments are published. Every dollar of the money raised by popular subscrip- tion should be accounted for.

GREASE ON PENS.

In the Senate chamber on Friday the
Wayfarer noticed Enrolling Clerk Her
man E. FIRST, OF this city, standing in
the centre OF the handsome apartment
with a lighted match in one hand and
new steel pen in the other. The
point Of the pen was being held in the
fame Of the match and the enrolling
clerk was regarding both with earnest
attention.
What are you doing-trying to melt
the pen?" inquired the Wayfarer,
NO, but I'm doing the best wrinkle
that you ever heard Of in connection
with the work Of copying" he replied.
What Is it?" the Wayiarer asked.

copyist, some OF the most beautiful in

INTENSE SUFFERING.
FROM DYSPEPSIA AND STOMACH
TROUBLE.
Instantly Relieved and Permanently Cur
ed by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
A New Discovery, But Not Patent Medi-
cine.

DR.. Redwell relates an interesting account
of what he considers a remarkable case OF
acute stomach trouble and chronic dyspep-
STA by the use of the new discovery, Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets.
He says: The patient was man who had
suffered, to my knowledge, for years with
dyspepsia. Everything he ate seemed to
sour and create gases in the stomach He
had pains like rheumatism in the back
shoulder blades and limbs, fullness and dis
tress after eating, poor appetite and loss or
flesh; the heart became affected, causing
palptation and Sleepessness at night
81 gave him powerful nerve tonics and
blood remedies, but to no purpose. AS an
experiment l finally bought a 50-cent pack
age of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at a drug
store and gave them to him. Almost i'm
mediate relief was given and after he had
used four boxes he was to all appearances
fully cured
There was no more acidity or sour, wat
cry risings no bloating after meals the ap-
petite was vigorous and he has gained be-
tween ten and twelve pounds in weight of
solid healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
advertised and sold in drug stores, yet I
consider them a most valuable addition to
any physicians line of remedies they
are perfectly harmless and can be given to
children or invalids in any condition or
the stomach with perfect safety, being
harmless and containing nothing but fruit
and vegetable essences, pure pepsin and
Golden Seal
"Without any question they are the SAT-
est, most effective cure for indigestion, bill
iousness constipation and all arrangements
of the stomach however slight or severe"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are made by

Mich, and are sold by druggists everywhere
at 80 cents per package.

official notification of the annexation of the

German consul, on board the Cormoran

ITO those who have been associated with

the island is rapidly pressing forward to
prosperity hitherto unknown in its history.
Look about and see how true this is.
The various steps that have led to the pres

change is truly marvellous. Without the
