1880 to receive a thorough musical cdu-
cation. Her first teacher in that city was
Mrs. Sarah Eddy, wife of Clarence Ed

Miss Clifford was under Mrs. Eddy's
charge for four years, during which time
she was also the soprano soIoist at the
First Presbyterian church. In 1895 she
became a member of the Chicago orchcs-
ira, making her debut with that organ
izatton. She soon became a popular IN.
vorite, and her tour with the orchestra is
regarded by her friends us her first great
success.
In 1896 Miss Clifford left the city for
Paris, where she has been studying un-
der the best teachers ever since. Among
them were Marchesi, Nine. Eames' in.
structor, and NJ. Berthan, who taught
her dramatic acting. Miss Giford's rep

SEATTLE, Sept. 1.-Two steamers ar
rived from Alaska yesterday bringing
about 500 miners, fortunate and unfor-
tunate. The Laurada came from st.
Michael and the Humboldt from Skag-
way. The total amount of gold dust
they brought down is estimated at
$500, 900. The reports from the Cape
Nome district are still conflicting, but
the fact remains that considerable gold
dust was brought from there by passen-
gers Oh the Laurada. The dust is very
fine and has to be amalgamated. One
stalwart miner struggled toward the
assay office this morning with a sack Of
dust 10 inches long and was asked where
he came from.
Eagle City, sir, and that's on tae
American side, and I'm an American
miner and don't forget it," he replied.
He seemed to take as much pride in
the latter part of his statement as he
did in his sack of dust.
Many hard luck stories are also told.

How to Prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneu-
monia always results from cold or from
an attack of La Grippe. During the
epidemic of La Grippe a few years ago
when so many cases resulted in pneu-
monia, it was observed that the attack
was never followed by that disease when
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy was used.
1t counteracts any tendency of a cold or
La Grippe to result in that dangerous
disease. 1t is the best remedy in the
world for bad colds and La Grippe.

A Letter Written by Him Contained
Statements Objectionable TO the
German Government.

New YeRK, Feb. GA dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says: AS
indicating the friendly purposes of tie
German government to bring the Sa-
moan controversary to a settlement
satisfactory to the United States, Herr
Salt, the newly elected president of the
municipal council of Apia, will come to
the United States before proceeding to
his post, to sconfer with Secretary Hay
and other administration officials.
Herr Salt will succeed Herr Rafal, who
left Apia February % for Berlin, where
he will be compelled to make a report to
his home government in explanation of
his conduct at Apia. Herr Salt is now
on duty in one of the German posses
sions in Africa, and has been instructed
to first proceed to Berlin.
1t was stated today that the Samoan
question has never been at danger
point, as has been reported, but fault
has been displayed on both sides, and
Germany and the United States propose
to take action to restore order. Herr
Rose will probably be removed, and
Chief Justice Chambers is expected to
be recalled.
Chief Justice Cham bers' recall will
not be due to his decision or to his
course, but to the letter he wrote to his
brother, which contained statements
Objectionable to the German govern
ment, which has been communicated 10
the state department, The officials say
that his usefulness has gone, to some
extent, as the result of his letter, and
Germany has intimated that she would
be pleased if some other person was ap-
pointed as his successor.
Within ten days it is expected that
reports will be received from the three
consuls fully explaining their acts, and
when these have been considered, action
will be taken by the two governments.
There is one other point which re-
mains to be settled by diplomatic nego-
tiation. Germany will insist that
Mataafa, by reason of the overwhelming
majority he received at the election, be
made king, but the decision of the CHIEF
justice and the protocol of the Berlin
treaty exclude him forever from con.
sideration in connection with the king.
ship. The administration proposes to
support Malietoa Tanus. Great Britain
is similarly inclined, and as a majority
rules, he will probably be established
on the throne.

PECULIAR POISONS.
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN BODY
The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.

Every living thing, plant or anima'.
contains within itself the germs of GER
tain decay and death.
In the human body these germs OF
death Called by scientists Ptomaines),
are usually the result of imperfect diges-
ton of food; the result of indigestion or
dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakens,
does not promptly and thoroughly digest
the food. The result is heavy, sodden
mass which ferments (the first process OF
decay poisoning the blood, making it
thin, weak and lacking in red corpuscles
poisoning the brain causing headaches,
pain in the eyes.
Bad digestion weakens the heart,
causing palpitation and finally bringing
on disease of this very important organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys,
causing bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is 30 . because every organ,
every nerve depends upon the stomach
alone for nourishment and renewal, and
loss of appetite and flesh, but in weak
nerves and muddy complexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley.
said the best start in life is a sound
stomach. Weak stomachs fail to digest
food properly, because they lack the
proper quantity of digestive acids Qactic
and hydrochloric) and peptogenic pro.
ducts; the most sensible remedy in all
cases of indigestion, is to take after each
meal one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia

The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
