Few mining sections OF the world have
had more sensational discoveries than Alas
ka and the adjoining Northwest territory
thought none yet reported partakes rsore
OF romance than that Of the Cape Nome
section.
Mystery has enshrouded the history Of
the discovery. but this Is at last cleared
away The following version. fresh from
Alaska, Is accredited as the truthful one:
In 1897 an Eskimo at Port Clarence ex-
hibited a pocket handkerchief fun Of gold
to some whalers. Years prior to This. an
Eskimo sold gold 10 the traders, which was
supposed to have come from Kotzebue
sound, but II was evidently the same Eski-
mo. and II probably came from Nome
From a Misrepresentation as to whore the
Eskimo got his gold. a great rush to Kotza-
bue sound resulted In 1895, and that entire
section was thoroughly prospected Very
little. II any. rich ground was found.
Discovered by an Eskimo.
At this time C@0 quite a number OF
prospectors and miners had worked their
way down the Yukon river and across to
Golovin bay where some gold was disc W.
cred and a small camp formed. At this
point was located Swedish Lutheran mis-
sion in charge OF Rev. Anderson and calei
Council City. Among the inhabitants Of
this little settlement was a man Of the
name of II. 8 Blake, who was told by an
Eskimo early IN July 1895 that there was
gold near Cape Nome. Blake immedat ely
organized a party. consisting OF FIVE rer-
sons, among them Rev. ". o. Hul.berg
and went to Cape Nome, about 100 miles
away. They found gold In the creeks. but
II did not occur TO them to prospect the
beach. After remaining in the neighbor-
hood until September and the approach OF
winter they singular as II may seem went
back 10 Golovin bay without making any
locations, with solemn agreement he
tween them that their discovery was 10 be
kept secret and they were 10 return to
Il In tho following spring. To further pro-
tect the secret they agreed to and did all
sail on the same boat 10 st. Michael. II is
thought that the failure to locate at the
time was owing to the necessity OF the
majority OF the party. the aliens, declaring
their Intentions Of becoming American CHI

ONE WORD DID 1T.
SIiberman Brothers Sue the Western
Union for $4,000 Damages.

Because of an error of one word in
a telegraph message, Silberman Bros,
of 122 Michigan street, Chicago, and
with an Office in this city, have brought
suit against the Western Union Tele-
graph company, in the superior court
for $4,000 damages. The plaintiffs,
wool dealers, had been negotiating
with merchant in Eugene, Oregon,
for the purchase of $4,000 pounds of
wool, and the deal had proceeded so
far that it was agreed between the
parties that the wool was to be sold
to SHERMAN Bros. at 20 cents a
pound. sour man will be with you
Thursday morning to approve wool,
Your proposition" is the message the
plaintiffs claim to have given the COM
pany to send, and they allege that the
message was changed to read: Sour
man will be with you Tuesday morning
to approve wool. Your proposition
In consequence OF the change Silber-
man Bros. claim that they lost the
profits which would have accrued
from the transaction, as the Oregon
merchant sold the wool elsewhere
after the time set in the message had
passed.

TO PENSION PASTORS.
Those Who Are Old In the Cause to Re-
ceiYe Financial Aid

The Methodist church in its tweIl-
tieth century movement is planning
among other things to raise a fund
for the support of superannuated
preachers, or, in other words, to pen
sion them. Pensions for railroad men,
for the presidents of life insurance
companies and others who have given
the best years of their lives to their
work are matters of ordinary know
ledge: but pensions for ministers who
have grown too old TO longer hold the
attention of their congregation and
must therefore step aside is a new
thing. Yet it is just what the Net
hodists all over the country are just
now agitating. The means of
raising the funds for the pur-
pose is by deducting l per cent of
the salary of all the active pastors.
and to do his best besides to increase
the fund by agitation and private sub
scription. @
The executive committee of the
twentieth century movement at a
meeting recently held in Cedar Rapids
recommended that all the pastors
preach ON the twentieth CEN
fury movement on the second
Sunday in March, or as soon there
after as possible. In the matter of the
assistance to be rendered to the sup
erannuate ministers, the ministers,
the committee recommended that. in
order TO raise a permanent fund of
$4,000, the interest on which is TO be
used each year, each pastor shall be
expected to pay per cent of his sal
AIRY. not including house rent, for
three wears, and that he endeavor to
raise as much more on his charge over
and above the regular collection for
superannuates.

ADDS HIS EVIDENCE.
Story is the Same as From
Other Sources.
Lots Of Money Spent but no Returns.
Have Been Received.

The people in Iowa willingly add
their evidence to that which has all
ready been given in favor of Morrow's
Kid-ne-oids, the best remedy that has
ever been sold in this state for back
ache, kidney and urinary disorders,
|sleeplessness and nervousness. Our
druggists report wonderful cures and
state that Kid-ne-oids are daily in.
creasing in the, opinion of our people.
Kid-ne-oids act directly upon the kid
|neys and nerves and restore them to
their natural condition. Good kidneys
make good blood, good blood makes
strong nerves, Kid-ne-oids make good
kidneys and strong nerves.
Mr.. James Koba, Clio South Birch.
street, Creston, Iowa, says: 81 have
been troubled with my kidneys for ten
years. Sometimes the pain in the
small OF my back was SO severe that i
could hardly. do my work. was also
troubled with swelling of the feet and
ankles and urinary troubles that We're
very annoying and painful. / took
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids according to di-
rections and was greatly relieved Of
all my trouble. | continued to take
them and the backache is gone, urin-
airy troubles corrected and the swelling
gone from my feet. will cheerfully
recommend kid-ne-oids."
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are not pills,
but Yellow Tablets. and sell at fifty
cents box at all drug stores and at
Clark q Mollison's drug store.
