 He went Into tho Atlln district, after visiting around White Horse and then came out Co skogwuy and went Go Che Porcuplne. He stayed around Wells. in the British Porcuplnc. for several weeks and got what he came after Four days ago he landed back ln Wells While going Go his eating place hc passed by thc hcad- quarters or the mounted police. Tho news had just arrived there by a copy or thc Daily Alaskan. that President Mckinley hnd died
 Feeling tired and worn out he sat down and as the awful calamity of the dcath Of tho nrcsIdent gradually took Q hold of him tears strcamcd down his cheeks at the thought or the dastardly decd. Sev- eral mounted policemen stood around him and seeing the man In tears they bee thought themsclvcs that out of respect to the dead president md Co thi8 Amer lcan. Che Canadian nog would float at half mast.
 It dld. and the grief Of Judge Hahn seemed Co spread Go the policemen. for soon they also they were In deep thought

THE FIGURES ARE APPALLING.


The losses of our troops in the Phili-
ppines in killed, wounded and deaths
from disease from August 6. 1898, to
the end of the past year were s, zoo,
and of these over 1900 died of disease.
In these figures no account is taken of
those who have been sent home in
valided and who have died here, or of
those who are IN insane asylums. Ac-
cord1ng TO the careful report of Gen
eral Macarthur and the statement of
those who are pleading for a continu-
ance of the present policy, 1t will be
necessary to keep on for years s4cr1-
ficing the lives of thousands Of our
cit zens as the dear price Of maintaining
the miserable policy which is opposed
TO our interests and places a burden
upon our resources. 1T IS in vain,

Sunshine is so common that it is
hardly recognized as natures greatest
prophylactIc for both animal and vege-
table life. 1t is well known that plants
grown in shade are weak and I'M
productive No sane man will attempt
to grow plants without sunshine, and
yet many people deny this great boon
to their stock. Sunshine is as necessa-
ry for cattle as for cabbage; for hogs
as for horseradish; for horses as for
honeysuckles; for fowles as for forage
crops No life can be normal without
sunshine, and plenty of 1t. Sunshine
and water are the great purifiers, and
so abundant that we hardly realize
