Ashland Men Spend Two Years in
Canadian Wilds Battling
with Death.

Ashland, Wis, Sept. 14-Word has
reached here that Jim Brewer, n. G.
Nelson, j. n. Dagger and e. Calberg of
this city, three victims of the Edmonton
trail, have arrived in Vancouver after
two years spent in the wilds OF the Cana
dian Northwest. AS they stepped off the
steamer Capilano they looked like wild
men.
Bagger the leader, had not had hair
cut or shave for nearly two years, and
his hair and beard met on his chest. He
was hurrying TO the station to catch the
morning train for Seattle. He wanted
to get home to his family by the quickest
route. They bring news of rich hydraulic
claims on the Edmonton route but they
cannot be worked at profit owing to the
difficulty of getting in machinery. Bag

The strangest thing to me is that we
are all here alive-broken in health and
spirits, but still alive. We have travelled
incessantly for nearly twenty months.
There was scarcely day this summer
that we were not wading through water,

our thighs. Our guides exacted tribute
for going through Red Mans country.

GOOD TIMES AHEAD.
Roswell Miller Says Railroads Are
Making Money and lmprov-
ing Their Property.

New York, Sept 14.-President Ros-
well Miller of the st. Paul railroad said
yesterday: Railroad affairs are better
than they have been in years past. The
roads are making a good deal Of money
and nearly all of them are spending
good deal on their property. That is as
it should be. / see nothing but good
times ahead just now. The crops in the
country through which our road runs are
very fair, though not as good as last
year-which, however, was an exception
ally good year. For the last three or
four weeks we have been suffering from
a shortage Of cars and cannot handle all
our business. The only bad feature of
the railroad situation that | can see is
the tendency OF some roads to make use
less extensions, especially in the state Of
Iowa.
Those best informed in regard to the
feeling of the st. Paul directors are con-
WINGED that no extra dividend on the
common stock of the company will be de-
clared at tOGay's meeting.

TRIAL is A FARCE.
The Examination Of the Appleton
Fire Chief Falls Flat and He
will be Acquitted.

Appleton, Wis, Sept. 14.-[Special.] J.
The examination of e. l.. Anderson be-
fore the board of fire and police commits
sioners. with a view to his removal for
inetficiency, has proven farce. The
most that has been shown is that the
chief disregarded the advice of onlookers
in conducting the fighting of the fire at
the e. III. Wieckert company's plant.
The trial will be completed tonight, after
three nights spent in the examination of
about twenty-five witnesses. Last night
witnesses for the defense showed that
the fire in the main wreck Of the building
was from no known cause, clearing the
chief of blame. The evidence shown is
likely to acquit the chief, who speaks in
his own behalf tonight. The Wieckert
company, which prefers the charges,
persists in the statement that the plant
will not be rebuilt unless better protec-
tiCn is given.

BIG SAVING TO MINES.
Capt. Wilcox's System Throws Many
Miners Ont Of Work.

Houghton, Mich, Sept. 14.-[Special.l
Capt. Wilcox has devised new plan OF
mining which gives every promise of
proving highly successful. Capt. Will
cox's system is modification of the mill
ing system in use on the Mesaba iron
range and was put in effect in the Slopes
of No. shaft Of the Arcadian about
three weeks ago. The timber gang then
numbered eighty-four men. Exactly one
third of the force has been discharged,
there being no work for them, and Of
the present force of fifty-six men one
half will be let out this month, reducing
the timber force permanently by just
two-thirds No heavy stull timber is re-
uuired by the new plan and the saving
on timber alone at the Arcadian is esti-
mated at $4,000 or $4,000 monthly. The
success of Capt. Wilcox's ingenious sys-
tenn, which seems reasonably certain, will
save about $1,000,000 per annum to lake
mines when put in general use, as it GER
tainly will be after it's success is demon
strated at the Arcadian.

ESCAPES CONFIDENCE MEN.
Wisconsin Man, Vino Avoids Chicago
Sharpers, Loses His Money.

Chicago, H., Sept. 14.-James Hughes,
a farmer living near North Bend, Wis,
lost S5S yesterday through the fear of
confidence men. Hughes went to the
Polk street station to purchase a ticket
to Blossburg, Pa. the home of his boy
hood. When he entered the depot he no
ticed a stranger who answered the de-
scription that had been furnished him Of
a confidence man advancing toward him.
Hughes drew out a pocketbook contain
ing $5S and put the money in his upper
vest pocket, he thought. He then turned
around and in view Of the stranger re-
turned the empty pocketbook to his
pocket. When Hughes reached the
ticket window he found that his money
was not in his vest pocket. He reported
the matter to the police and said that he
supposed he must have dropped the
money when he was putting it in his
pocket

4 Let me say to those of you who are in
happy married union, avoid first uuarrels:
have no unexplained correspondence with
former admirers; cultivate no suspicions.
in moment Of bad temper do not rush
out and tell the neighbors; do not let any
OF those gadabouts Of society unload in
your house their baggage Of CAB and
little tattle; do not make it an inyariable
rule to stand on your rights; learn how
to apologize; do not be so proud or so
stubborn or so devilish that you will not
make up. Remember that the worst do
nestle misfortunes and most scandalous
divorce cases started from little intellect
ties. The whole piled up train of ten rail
cars telescoped and smashed at the foot
Of an embankment 100 feet down came
to that catastrophe by getting two or
three inches off the track. Some of the
greatest domestic misfortunes and the
widest resounding divorce cases have
started from little misunderstanding that
were allowed to go on and go on until
home and responsibility and religion and
immortal soul went down in the crash
