Why People Rush Into the kiondike
in Search OF Wealth.
In telling of a Colorado company
formed to take gold at Cape Nome,
Alaska, the Colorado Springs Gazette
says:
The gold output for the last year
was $2,300,000. For this year it is
variously estimated that the output
will exceed s15.o00,O00. Numerous
cases have been reported where indi
vidual fortunes of $4,000 and up
wards have been made during the past
year, and the scope of the mineralized
territory there is so great that it will
take years to even prospect 1t thor.
oughly.
Such claims as No. Anvil are not

have cleared up SOS, ZOO in twenty-four
hours and 100000 in sixty days. A
Denver engineer who came to Nome
and turned miner was able to send
his wife 200 pounds in gold for pres
ent last Christmas. which was worth
about $4,000. A stranded medical
student aided two miners who after
ward died and left him their claims.
He took $4,000 out of one claim and
refused $4,000 for a second. A Swede

later forwarded $50 pounds of gold to
the San Francisco Mint. A new Jer-
sey man prospected the district with
$500 in his pocket. The property he
secured is now worth 100000. He
has already sent $4,000 to the San
Francisco Mint. A Lutheran mission

The Useful Onion.

Onions are a kind of all-round good
medicine.
A whole onion eaten at bedtime will
by the next morning break the severest
cold.
Onions make good plaster to re-
move inflammation and hoarseness.
If an onion is smashed so as to
secure all the juice in it it will make a
most remarkable smelling substance
that will quiet the most nervous
person.
The strength of it inhaled for few
moments will dull the sense of smell
and weaken the nerves until sleep is
produced from sheer exhaustion.

COL. JOHN GUSTS.

He Was the Boyish Lover of One of
Virginia's Famous Bellies.
MISSIONER is perhaps the most beau
tiful of all the celebrated colonial
homes of Virginia." writes Mrs. Thad.
deus Horton in the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal. 1T was built by William Byrd, a
Virginian of Virginians. The greatest
OF his many claims to distinction was
his beautiful and beloved daughter
Evelyn, perhaps the most celebrated
belle of that day. She was educated
in England, whittier she accompanied
her father on almost all of his trips as
colonial agent, and was presented at
the court of George |. She had many
lovers, and naturally many offers of
marriage from men of distinction in
the old dominion, for she was not only
beauty but an heiress. Her heart.
however, was given, so it is said, to
her cousin, Colonel John Custis, with
whom she had had childish love af-
fair, but whom she had not seen for
some years, and she refused positively
to marry any other man. Finally.
qu@eO IL uCopdil, uSI u6NOteu IdCH9r
sought to arrange marriage between
her and the gallant Colonel GUSTS.
For some reason that gentleman was
quite Indifferent to the match, and re-
fused it altogether. 1t came to light
later, that during the years of their
separation his fancy had become
estranged FROM his erstwhile favorite
Cousin Evelyn, and he was at the time
of the overture from her father deeply
in love with one Martha cambridge,
who soon afterward became his wife,
and subsequently the wife of the Illus
trious George Washington. The beau
tiful Evelyn, on learning of Colonel
Custis's Indifference, pinned and faded,
and in spite of all the love lavished up
on her by friends and family, died of a
broken heart, and her body now rests
in the old burying-ground at West

A Possible Reorganization in China

territorial integrity of the eighteen

through two millenniums, and which
no conquest has changed, and none is

New Music From the Old Harp.

A harp there was in Yankeeland,
And hand that played 1t clearly.
We thought we knew it's every strain,
We loved its music dearly.
Years later came strange. thrilling
strains
Some master harp resounding,
And all asked, What new harp is this
That sets our hearts a-bounding?"
But when we came to seek it out,
The new accord that filled us,
IT was still the same. dear, well-known
harp,
But new the hand that thrilled us.
Now read my riddle: First to play
The Muse that once was Thoreau's
The next, the Spirit of the West.
The harp? Why that's John Bur
roughs.

A THUNDER SHOWER.

The sun was shining brightly when
Lucy Manning went downtown, and it
was oppressively hot, but she looked
dainty and cool in her crisp ruffled
lawn and white hat. Having bought
a few yards of ribbon, shirtwaist,
marked down to half" and an ice
cream soda, she started home. The
trolley car was almost empty and she
took corner seat, near the front.
Suddenly the sky grew dark, light
ming flashed, thunder roared, and rain
came down in torrents. The con-
ductor struggled nobly with the cur
tains, but before Lucy's were down she
was wet through She looked at her
gown sorrowfully; the color was rum
ming; it was ruined She minded
the sown's plight more than her own.
What pity" she said to herself,
II was sure that it would wash"
Just then tall. good-looking young
man appeared at her side.
Good morning, Miss Manning" he
said, pardon me if offer you my
overcoat. You will catch cold in that
thin gown, / am afraid"
Lucy drew herself up haughtily.
mo, thank you, 1 shall do very well
as / am"
"But l insist" and Lawrence Fulton
dextrously wrapped the coat around
her. Then he sat down on the same
seat. but so far away as to be almost
in a puddle. Lucy eyed him furtively.
Il don't care If he does get wet"
thought she. Mean thing. 1 wonder
how he happened to have his over
coat with him this hot day."
Presently her conscience began to
trouble her. "Mr. Fulton" she said,
why don't you sit farther over this
way? You are in the wet"
Il am perfectly comfortable, Miss
Manning, thank you"
That's absurd" answered Lucy.
you are almost in a puddle"
1T doesn't matter" said Lawrence.
Nothing matters now" he added,
half under his breath. But Lucy
heard him. although she gave no sign.
The car sped three blocks. but
neither of the young people said an
other word. At Superior street Law
renee arose, bowed. and left the car.
Goodness" exclaimed Lucy, almost
aloud. "he has left his oversoat. ="
But the car was already at Chicago
avenue.
When Lucy arrived at her getting
of place the rain had ceased. She
emerged from the car a much
bedraggled object. II feel like a
freak" she said to herself, inn
patiently. as she walked two blocks in
her wet and spoiled finery. with the
heavy overcoat on her arm. The sun
had come out again and added to her
misery.
Arrived at home. arrayed in dry
garments. and, happily, feeling none
the worse for her wetting. she ruefully
surveyed the overcoat.
Il suppose must send II back; he
will never come for II after last
night"

The Paris exposition is dying. Hard

to secure crowds. Evidence that
