1t is only a question of time when
spectators will again urn their at
tention to real estate. Realty is al
ways the first to feel the effects of a
panic and the last to recover from the
depression. During the past year there
has been a decided upward tendency in
ranch property all over the state. Many
excellent sales have been made and va
cant public land has been sold, through
the medium of soldiers additional
scrip, as high as FIVE dollars per acre.
The cities, too, have felt the effects of
the improved conditions and recent
sales in Wyoming towns have shown
a decided improvement over those of
. year and two years ago. There is no
reason why realty should not sell upon
q basis Of a return of from six to eight
per cent on the investment. This year
promises to be an important one for
the western real estate dealers.

The preliminary estimate of the gold
production Of the United States for
1899, which the director of the mint
puts at a little over 10000, 900, shows a
gain of $6.OO0IO0O over the yield OF
1898. Colorado. with a yield of $685.
100000, has increased the lead which
it gained ver California a year or two
ago, California's output in 1899 being
JIG. 000, 900. South Dakota stands next
to California as q gold producer, its
yield in 1899 having been 5 6 1000, 900.
Colorado's pre-eminence, of course, is
due to great gains which have been
made in the Cripple Creek district,

TRANSVAAL LOSS OF LIFE.

Moralists are discussing the terri
Bile loss of life brought about by the
Transvaal war. Yet here life is sacri-
feed for a purpose-for IN honest prin-
ciple. 1t ere better to preach against
the needless sacrifice of life. Thou
sands Of people succumb to ailments
which might easily have been checked
in the beginning. Dyspepsia carries
off more people than are killed in war.
The use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
would save many lives. Constipation
may seem a little thing, but it invari-
ably developes into something worse,
and the longer it is allowed to run, the
harder it is to cure. The Bitters cures
indigestion, constipation, dyspepsia
and biliousness, naturally and perma-
nently, without shocking the system.
1t is good for everybody.

Sir George Martin is nomlnally the
dign!fied and gray-haired organist of
st. Paul's cathedral in London. Sew
eral weeks ago he went out to South
Africa to conduct some musical exam
nations in Cape Town. His work
over, he determined to run up into the
country to see a bit of the Transvaal.
During his trip the talk of war became
violent, and the wary Beers got an
idea into their heads that Sir George
Martin was a British spy masQuerad-
ing as a musician. They put detec-
uves on the trail. and finally detained
him for some days in Pretoria to await
developments. Finally. Just before
Preaident Kruger''s ultimatum was
made public, the authorities gave him
his liberty. Sir GroIge ooh advan-

arrived in London, overjoyed at his
