postof1ice is one OF the institutions,
the postmaster being Joseph H.
Wright. An interesting fact in this
connection is that the bond required
of the Nome postmaster is the largest
given by any postmaster in an Office
of the fourth class Mr.. Wrights bond
which is for $4,000, is signed by some
of the most prominent mine owners in
the district. The office is no sinecure,
as the salary is only $1,000 per year.
Mr. Hirst, when asked about the
health of the community, said the only
disease experienced at Nome this sum-
mer was smallpox This was in a
light form, as only few deaths re-
suited from it, and the patients We're
not removed from the city. The sour
Wy, which was the cause of SO much
death and suffering along the Klondike
is unknown in Nome, partly on ac-
count of the dry weather, 1t is sup
posed. The same cause however, is
responsible for the fact that there has
been scarcely no mining in the region
during the summer.
The great mistake so many make,
according to Mr.. Hearst, is in expect
ing to get rich as soon as they reach
the gold country, and with almost no
effort. The beach is Improbable, but
the creeks have good paying claims
situated on nearly all of them. The
process of becoming rich is slow and
arduous in gold mining as in all occu-
pations, unless as rarely happens a
rich strike is made

a PHYSICAL Giant.

Henry Schroeder, of 49S North Ben
ton street, an employee in the car re-
pairing department in the local Mil
waukee yards, is, perhaps, one of the
strongest men in the city. Milwaukee
employees who have not been able to
witness the street shows during car
nival week have no cause for lament
ing, for Henry has been giving them
frequent exhibitions OF his strength
and the wonderful feat of breaking
large flint rocks with his fist. The lat
ter trick or feat is. perhaps one OF the
most interesting in Mr.. Schroeder's
repertoire. He takes an ordinary mig
ger head" and after wrapping hand
kerchief around his hand, places the
fiat rock on some hard substance and
with his fist breaks fragments from
the stone. He gave an exhibition of
his strength and skill last evening, at
the yards, after work, and in his selec-
ton of rock got one of the blue flint
variety. 1t was with much difficulty
that he shelled off small piece, but
he broke it nevertheless. After he
had Clipped off piece with his fist,
he laid the flint on rail, and taking a
huge car bolt weighing five or six
pounds, was compelled to strike the
rock several severe blows before he
could break it.
Mr.. Schroeder is a professional
wrestler, and in past years devoted
considerable time to that and similar
work in professional way. He is a
good worker and when he takes hold
of anything it generally moves.

OUT FOR M'klNLEY.
Hon. B. F. Clayton Enroute to Indiana
to Speak.

ttStis - WAY WI I'LL WV ~ i'N'o''R
to Speak.
From Tuesdays Daily.
Hon. B. F. Clayton, of Indianola, was
in the city yesterday, departing on the
Milwaukee in the evening for Chicago.
Mr.. Clayton is the gentleman, who,
four years ago, rendered such excellent
service in the campaign in behalf OF
Mckinley and prosperity, and he is al
ready in the field in that capacity. this
year. He finished his campaign in
Iowa at North English, last Thursday
evening. From Chicago he will go to
Indiana to fill three engagements this
week, after which he will leave for a
tour of Colorado and Utah, finishing
the campaign in the Dakotas.
In speaking of the present outlook
for the election of Mckinley this fall,
Mr. Clayton said it could not be better.
I'VE will carry the Dakotas, Colorado,
Wyoming, Kansas, and firmly believe,
Nebraska" he continued, and the final
count will show general apprecia-
ton of the prosperity which has ac-
companied the republican administra-
ton during the past four years"
Mr.. Clayton is interested in business
the people Of that state have been con-
WINGED of the sound principles of re-
publicanism he knows what he is talk
ing about. Colorado has never enjoy
ed more prosperous period than that
of the past few years, and the people
realize that the democrats haven't
anything better to offer them.
The second and sixth congressional
districts in Iowa, Mr.. Clayton believes
are safe for Mckinley and the repub.
lican ticket. "Iowans," he said, "are
an intelligent people and can't be led
to follow a false god, and I believe
that if every man will vote, the republic
can majority in this state will be 100,
900 or more"
Mr.. Clayton stumped the state Of
Iowa for Mckinley in 1896. He also
spoke in Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois
Michigan and Minnesota. He left his
home July II, 1896. and did not get
back until about ten minutes before
the polls closed on election day.

VERDICT WAS SUICIDE.
Finding of coroners Jury in the Case
of Frank Robinson.

of Frank Robinson.
From Tuesdays Daily.
A coroner's jury composed of Will
liam Pratt, Fred McNair and L. H.
Dutro, was empaneled yesterday to
inquire into the cause and manner of
death of Frank 9. Robinson, the mail
carrier, who hung himself in an out
house near the linseed oil mills, Satur-
day afternoon. The hearing was con-
tinued until this forenoon, when the
jury found ''that said Frank C. Rob
inson came to his death by hanging,
between the hours of $3.50 and $3.50 p.
M, September %. Said hanging being
the work of his own hands,
There is still no clue as to the mo-
tive for the act unless the theory of
inability to meet his bills SO preyed
upon his mind that he determined to
end it all. There are plenty of people
who hint that Mr.. Robinson was
bounded to death by creditors and
they give this as the reason for his
act

Switch Enaines Collide.

Engines and II collided in the
Milwaukee yards in this city, early
Thursday morning. None of the crews
were injured, but the engines We're con-
siderably damaged. The accident was
due, it is said, to misunderstanding
of orders, and no one in particular is
to blame. The left cylinder On No. 4
was knocked to pieces, and the pilot
beam was splintered. The engine will
be sent to the shops at Dubuque for
repair. No. Al escaped with much less
damage, and was able to be in the SER
vice again yesterday.

Postal Department Calls Attention
to the Eight Hour Law.
MAY HIT THE coupon SCHEME. !"
Is Said to be Unlawful and May Merit
Future Notice at the Hands Of the
Departments-Rece for Keys
Discontinued.

The August Postal Guide, among
other things, says that letter carriers
will not be permitted to work on an
average of more than eight hours each
day. That is, the Ottumwa mail car
riers may work overtime one day but
the next it is expected that there will
not be SO much to do and the law of
averages will step in and adjust it so
the department will not be compelled
to pay for overtime.
Something is also said in the Guide
concerning the we'll known coupon
scheme, and the use of receipts is
sued for keys to delivery boxes.
