The first map folder or Circular respect
ing the Klondike gold strike of 1898 was
issued by the Northern Pacific Railway.
1t is more than a coincidence that the frs
map folder or pamphlet of the Nome
Mining district comes from the same source.
The present folder not only contains good
map of the Nome district but is embellish-
ed with several cuts of views at Nome CITY
and on the beach where the method of
mining is clearly shown. All information
obtainable regarding sailing dates from
Seattle and Tacoma, through rates, etc., is
given in this book and the public cautioned
to go to the agents of the n. P. Ry., who
are supplied with diagrams of the Alaske
steamers, and arrange in advance for their
accommodations rather than to put off this
very important business until they reach
Puget Sound. There is no doubt but what
there will be very considerable passenger
business from the middle and eastern states
and a very heavy business from the Pacific
Coast States to the Nome district next
spring.
For folders, rates, etc., call on
|. A. NADEAU, Agent,
Seattle,
or send two cent stamp to A. D. CHARL-
TON, Asst General Passenger Agent, Port
land, Ore, and he will mail you the Nome
folder.

Two Counts Have Been
Drawn By State.
E.well Furnishes Bail For Ap-
pearance Next Week.

Yesterday morning there was another
chspter In the Standish tragedy when
William W. Eiwell was brought to this
city by Deputy Sheriff Stanley. on
charge OF assault with a dangerous weaI-
on on James I. Adams, who was shot
last Wednesday night at Standish, in the
house occupied by Reuben N. Emery.
It will be remem bered that there were
four men IN the house at the time the ac-
oident or assault occurred. These were
William W. Elwell. james L. Adams,
william Coussns and Reuben N. Emery.
Adams was shot and instantly killed by
a gun in the hands Of Elwell. At the
time IL looked like an accident and was
so regarded by the people of the town.
The caronsr's inquest was held and the
following verdict was brought in:
"James L. Adams Of Buxton, county
of York, and State of Maine, came to his
death at Standish In the county of Cum
berland in said State Of Msine, on the
18th day of Janaury, \, -, 1900, from a
gunshot wound i-.dicted by one William
w. Elwsll with double barrelled shot
gun, loaded with powder and Jsadeu bull
lets, which said gun was then and there
carelsssly and negligently handled and
discharged by the said William W. FL
we'll"
According to the evidence given ct the
INQUEST, the men had been drinking hard
cider. 1t came out that Klwsll had taken
several drinks of this beverage. He and
Adams were joking and the latter re-
ferred TO the hired girl as Elweli's houss.
This annoyed Elwell to some extent and
ne went round behind Adams to the place
where the shot gun wac standing. The
testimony Is that Elwell did not say any
thing, but picked up the gun. In o mo-
ment there was an explosion and Adams
fol- TO the ffeor being killed Instantly.
The arrest was made on the grolnd that
Elwen was threatening Adams with the
gun, though 1t Is not charged that be de-
Lherately intended to shoot.
After the verdict Deputy Sheriff Stan
ley arrested Eiwell, and yesterday mcrn-
ing arrived In Portland with his prison
or. klwell was arrsigred before Judge
Hin In the Municipal court yesterday
morning.
The first part Of tue complaint charges
EIweli with assault on Adams and kill
ing him. The second part Of the COM
plant charges assault on Adams with q
dangerous weapon and killing.
Elweli pleaded not guilty and said he
had no counsel. The case was continued
until next Monday morning and bail was
required In the sum Of 5000. which was
duly furnished. Later Carroll w. Nor
rill, Esq. was secured as counsel for Ell
well.
