hope that they would confess their
guilt of the past and bravely stand
by the simple truth until the storm
was passed. But they, in their cow
ardly weakness and incompetency,
thought to put. off the evil day, and
decided to do the very worst thing
imaginable, and that was to close the
doors, until such a time as they could
call in their resources. Temporary
embarrassment" was the official term
entered on the minutes. How it came
to be known at the Golden Ledge that
the bank was not to open no one was
ever able to tell. But like the NUT
terings of thunder, which grows loud
er as it nears, it reached the distant
mines and fell with crash. The ex-
element was intense. Pick and SHOW
ell were unceremoniously dropped, and
one by one, and in little crowds, they
hurried to the town to see if it were
fact. They found it only too true.
The doors were closed and barred. and
they were met by card hung on the
inside of the glass bearing the word
suspended" This seemed at first
to strike the clamorous crowd like IN
electrical shock, but soon they began
to realize what it meant to them,
which turned the tide of their panic
into a struggling, Infatuated mob.
Only to get hold of the man whom
they trusted with their hard-earned
gold, and who had so grossly deceived
them! In their malicious minds,
thirsting for revenge, he alone was
the one personally responsible.
Even to the little home on the out
skirts did 4 vague murmur of voices
penetrate and the little wife waited,

"GO WAY BACK AND SIT DOWN"
Origin of Slang Phrase that Is as Pop
ular as a Popular Song.

Origin of Slang Phrase that Is as Pop
uIar as a Popular Song.
The popular phrase, Go way back
and sit down." has been credited to
many sources, said a New York music
publisher, but the true story has never
been printed.
"One night about a year ago several
colOred sports gathered in a saloon in
the Tenderloin owned by a negro and
patronized chiefly by men of his race
In the party were Smithy, the tenor,
and Bully, the tout. Smithy came from
the West and dressed in the height of
fashion, while Bully's home was in the
South.
Bully had had quite a turn of ill-luck
and his attire suffered in consequence.
Smithy began kidding him about it,.
Finally Bully got angry. He sized
Smithy up from head to foot for a few
seconds and then sailed in:

"Smithy did go way bacs and sit
down and was not heard of tie rest of
the night. Al Johns. a colo ed must
clan. who was present thought the
phrase was unique. and the ne t day he
told Elmer Bowman. negro song
writer. about it.
Johns thought it would make good
title for a song, so Bowman wrote some
verses which Johnson put to music In
the story Of the song Bowman stuck to
the incidents that took place in the
/ saloon that night. and when the song
was published it at once became popu
] lar.
THE phrase was used a good deal by

Gently decided against the United States
by Judge Hanford. The case involves the
title to lands in Clark county, Washing

mended that no appeal be taken on the
ground that the law was against the
United States and that the case had been
practically decided in the Spaulding case.
The time for appeal expires in about seven
days. The president said he was not dis
posed to take issue with the conclusions of
the attorney general.

MILLIONS A YEAR
INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF MONEY
LOSTBYTHE WORKING CLASSES.
An Interview with George v. Hammond,
of Tacoma, Wash, Man who
Talks from Experience.

The money lost annually by skilled
workmen of all occupations figures up
to millions of dollars and is becoming
greater every year. This amount OF
money represents mainly time lost and
the serious effect upon the social COM
fort of the workingmen and their fam
lilies is evident. Mr.. George V. Ham
mond, of Tacoma, Wash, said the
other day:
81 have lost my share of time but
am thankful to say that have not been
losing any of late"
"You don't look as if you had lost
much through sickness"
'No, and don't feel so. But the
fact remains that l was very sick
man. | took cold along in 1889 and
rheumatism settled in my arms and
shoulders. l suffered for three years
and nothing relieved me until in April
1892, upon the recommendation of my
sister, l began the use of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and found
relief in the second box. l took five
boxes in all and now am entirely cured
and have had no occasion to use them
since"
Mr. Hammond resides at No. 610
N Steele street, Tacoma, Wash, and
at the request of the reporter made affi-
davit to his above statement before
James H. Dege, notary public, on
July 5, 1901.
There is popular idea that rheuma-
tism is caused by exposure to cold and
that some localities are infected with
it more than others. Such conditions
frequently promote the development OF
the disease, but, from the fact that
rheumatism runs in certain families
it is shoYn to be hereditary and, con-
sequently disease of the blood.
Frequently an individual, in whose
family rheumatism has not occurred
develops the disease, and when a dag
nosis of the case is made, it is general
ly found that the ailment is due to a
arrangement of the blood.
External applications may afford tenn
porary relief, but to cure the disease il
is necessary to treat it through the
| blood.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People go directly to the seat of the dis.
order, Purifying and enriching the
blood by eliminating poisonous ele
ments and renewing health giving
forces. They are a positive specific
not only for rheumatism, but for such
diseases as locomotor ataxia, partia
paralysis, st. Vitus dance, sciatica, neu
ralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache
the after effects of grip or fevers, and OF
other acute diseases, palpitation of the
heart, pale and sallow compilations anC
all forms of weakness, either in male o.
female. DR.. Williams Pink Pills fo
Pale People are sold by all dealers o.
will be sent postpaid on receipt o
price, fifty cents a box; six boxes, TIVE
dollars and fifty cents, by addressing
DR.. Williams Medicine Company
Schenectady, n. Y. Be sure to get thu
genuine; substitutes never cured any
