out on a sympathetic strike. There were many
present who were eager for a strike but con-
servative counsel prevailed. The men said
that they had no grievances which they wanted
redressed, and, beng we'll satisfied with their
treatment by the company, they did not think

DAWSON CITY.
First Impressions of the Town - The
Crowded River.


Crowded River.
A first impression of Dawson, in
August, 1898, could not be other than
'one calculated to bring up compari-
sons with strange and foreign lands.
AS we saw it, approaching from the
water side, it persistently suggested
the banks of the Yang-tse-kiang, or
sof some other Chinese river, on which
"a densely apportioned population had
settled. Hundreds-one is almost
tempted to say thousands-of boats
were lined up against the river front,
=anG so packed in rows back of one
another that exit from the inner
line was made possible only by pas
siye accommodation from the outside.
There were steam craft, households,
.scoBs, and a variety of minor bot
rtUms, ranging from the hay-packed
raft to the graceful Peterboro canoe.
Many had canvas spread over them,
giving house quarter to those who
preferred the economy of an owned
estate to the high-priced cabins of
log huts and hotels, and the purity of
the open air to what was at least
considered to be the polluted atmos-
-phere of the stable city.-Prof. An
gelo Heilprin, in Popular Science

Gout ana Rheumatism Will Soon Be
Cured by II

II the present rate of progress in
the application of electrostatic cur
rents to cases of malnutrition of the
tissues, and especially the joints, be
maintained for few years, it will be
hard to find case of rheumatism or
gout that cannot be SO greatly alleyi-
ated as to be temporarily cured, if not
permanently. Gout is an auto-toxi-
cation due to retardation of nutrition
and consequent alteration of the It's
sues in carrying the nutritive process
to its legitimate stages without pro-
ducing intermediate products which
are insoluble in the organic media.
They must also tend to eliminate tho
urates and other products already de.
posted, and thus restore the member
to its healthy condition. A French
physician has achieved good results
by carrying lithium across and into
the affected joint by means of an
electric current. The currents, which
are quite strong, running up to 200
milhamperes, are maintained for 20
or 80 minutes. If the bones are not
suffering from chronic octeitis, there
is a rapid diminution of pain and
permanent improvement in the con-
'dition of the joint. There is also re-
action upon the general nutrition,
which is accelerated In the case Of
very stout people there is an immedi-
ate decrease in weight. Chronic
Theumatism is more effectively treat

remedial and tonic effects of electro

FUNNY FIRE BRIGADE.
Constnntinople Has n Department
Whose Operations Would Make
Our Firemen Laugh.

OF all the queer things to be found
in Constantinople, none seem so stupid
as the fire engines, if they can be called
by so big name. The houses in that
city are almost all built of wood, and if
fire does start, it burns fast and fierce
ly, and yet the precautions taken for
discovering fires and the methods of
extinguishing them are most feeble.
There is a constant watch kept on
the summit of the old Genoese tower in
Gaieta; similar watch is kept on the
tall tower of the Seraskierat in SIAM
boul, and another on hill behind Can
dill, one of the suburbs. From this last
place a cannon is fired to give warning
of q fire, and when this takes place
the watchmen of the city knock on the
shutters of all the houses, crying:
There is fire in such and such quar-
ter" And then the fire department
comes running down the street. 1t con-
sists of long barrel carried on the
shoulders of half dozen men, who are
relieved as fast as they get tired by
other men who run along with them.
Arrived at the scene of the fire, there
is tremendous confusion. All the fire.
men get in one another's way, and per-
haps in the course of an hour few
feeble hand-pumps are playing gentle
streams of water somewhere in the
neighborhood of the burning buildings,
| if the fire has not burned itself out by
that time. How would such a system
work in any American city? Yet this
is the constantinople method of not
putting out fires. So far there is no case
on record of one having been quenched
by this funny brigade.
