NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.:
ISABEL NEWS.

Miss Mabel Bailey spent Saturday
and Sunday with home folks again this
week.
Mrs. y. E. Valentine has returned
from her visit with home folks in
Wichita.
Farmers here are just about through
listing corn. 1t has been good weather
to work but poor for anything to grow.
Rev. Lahr filled his appointment
Sunday eve but as 1t was so windy
there was not very large attendance
Mr.. Doran spent few days here the
first of the week looking after his cat
tie and farm. They are now living on
place he bought near Harper.
The country seems full of cattle 60
ing west to summer pasture. Every
day several herds pass through or near
Isabel. Some look as though they
needed grass, too.
Among the isabel people who spent
Friday in Medicine Lodge, we noted
Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Sellers, J.. White,
q. White, Ia. Blackwelder, Blanche
Bailey and Verta Mcclure.
Nossaman & Co., shipped a car load
OF hogs from Isabel Wednesday paying
$6.25 for most of them. Among the
best received by them we're from c. E..
Stroll averaging $50 pounds each. Now
girls, look out, as we hear Clarence is
going to get new buggy.
Mayhem Keithly and family have
just arrived from Norwich, where Mr..
Keithly has been helping w. Eccleston,
and expect to make Isabel their future
home. We are glad to welcome them
to our midst. He has been a farmer in
Missouri until last fall when they came
90 Norwich. He has also worked at
plastering and carpenterlng, which he
expects to follow here.

VALDEZ IS THE PLACE
To Outfit for the Interior or the Sound. No Chance of
 Loss.

It has been the custom with the people leaving the States for Alas ka to stop at Seattle, Portland or san Francisco to purchase their outfits. They were advised to do it. and the merchants issued price lists of the many articles they claimed were absolutely necessary for the trip. The men who made the lists never saw Alaska. but the unsuspecting would-be-musher took their word for it, and as conse- quence, many tons of useless stuff have been brought into the coun- try, only to be thrown away on the trail. In the lists mention is made of Dawson prices, giving the public the impression that the same high prices prevail all through Alaska. This is Il delusion and intended to induce the people to buy before leaving Seattle.
 In each issue of the PRosrEcToR we publish market price list, showing the prices of the staple articles, and anyone intending to come to this section will do well to compare this list with the prices at Seattle or other coast cities. Taking the expense of freight and insurance and the chances of loss if not insured, into consideration. it will be found much cheaper to purchase here than elsewhere.
 A man left New York early this year to send an expedition into the interior by way of Valdez. He required twelve tons of provisions and submitted his list to mer- chants of Seattle and Tacoma and also to the representatives of two of the mercantile houses of Valdez, who happened to be in Seattle at the time. On comparing the esti- mates he found that the outfit would cost only eighteen dollars more here than in Seattle. SO the provisions were purchased at this place, thereby saving all unneces- sary worry or chance of loss.
 The merchants here are fully equipped for this trade and know just what the traveller needs. Our advertising columns present a list of the most reputable houses here where fair dealing and courteous treatment is given to all. If bids are required they will cheerfully answer all communications.

Low Grade Mine Pays We'll.

TIE 11th annual report of the Alaska Treadwell Gold Mining Company once more emphasizes the great value of a low grade, free milling gold property, when the plant upon it is sufficiently large to handle the ore in large quanti- ties. The report for the last year is as follows: There were 457 ,SO2 tons of ore crushed, an average of 1,254 tons every 24 hours. The average yield of the ore was $l .SS per ton, making the total product $S6O,7731. The total working ex- penses, including office expenses, amounted to $545, ,96S, leaving a net profit of $352,55a. The cost per ton of ore, including every ex- pense of mining, milling, office, etc., amounted to $1 1906. There have been extracted since operations be- gan, 3,SO2, ,l32 tons of ore, yielding an aggregate value of $1S,5S1 ,627 an average of $2.79 per ton. The total expenses were $4,979,O61, an average of $l.31 per ton, leaving the total profits $5,6OO, ,666.

 "My wife has queer ideas some times" said Casey. Il took her to Few Bros.' store to get an outfit for dinner few days ago. The first thing she asked the clerk for was desecrated codfish."

 "That reminds me" said Hooli- gan, ''of a woman I heard"-
 ''l never got on the trail of one who couldn't be heard" grunted Casey.
 ''I was engaged to be married to woman last summer" said the lawyer, "but now no girl has any cinch on me. Every one in town thought that girl and I would get married. But we won't. No sir. The match is out of the box. She struck me as no good and 1 lit out. Pve found out her shortcomings. She is false hearted, false headed and she has false teeth. Her heart isn't as big as q mustard seed. some girls are like dice, they are no good until you shake 'em. I shock her."

A storm came up and killipied the boat and l could only save one of those girls. What do you suppose did?"
 "You let them both drown and looked after yourself as usual, l suppose" sneered Casey.
 Judging from your previous conduct" said the lawyer, 'I would say that you shook your best girl and swam ashore with your merely friend"
 "No," said Hooligan, 'I didn't"
 'Then" said the lawer, accord ing to the latest rules governing such circumstances, you saved the one you loved best"
 "No l didn't" said Hooligan, Il woke up."
