One of the most picturesque can
didates nominated for congress so
far is Andrew Furuseth, who aspires
TO succeed Julius Kahn of the Fourth
California district. Furuseth is a
Prussian Finn who used to be n sailor
and he has sailed pretty much every
stretch of open water in the world.
For years he has been a labor agita-
tor in San Francisco. He is a keen,
sharp-visaged watchdog and does
the full duty assigned him.
Says writer: ''An artist
seeking studies of faces to make up a
revolutionary crowd would find in
him striking type. His straight,
hay-colored hair is long and tumbled;
his face has a drawn expression of
intensity with rarely the trace of
smile; his shoulders are angular and
his form cadaverous."

What Mr.. Whitney Really Said.

William c. Whitney rises to remark
that he did not say the democratic
party has no issue and no man." Mr..
Whitney is out of politics and says
his views carry no more weight than
those of any ordinary citizen. But his
views are important, for Mr.. whitney
is a popular man, a strong man and
leader who has won. The people
like to hear from him.
Instead of holding that the party
has no leadereor issue, Mr.. Whitney
declares there are, a dozen good men
and a winning issue in tariff reform.
He points to Olney, Villas, Lamont,
Shepherd and Hill as bunch from
which can be taken leader who will
give the republicans a warm race.
1t might also be asked, the Rock
ford Star puts it, what's the matter
with Mr.. Whitney? He knows how
to lead, and with him in the saddle
the opposition would have to do a
good deal of guessing.

Ex-President Cleveland's wife has
added greatly to her health and
beauty in recent years by much walk
ing. Every morning she takes long
constitutional, and in the cool of the
evening, usually accompanied by her
children or a maid, she may be seen
in the quiet streets of Princeton NOV
ing at an even, swinging gait. This
regular exercise has kept a youthful
color in Mrs. Cleveland's cheeks and
her weight has been reduced. The
wife of the only living eX-president is
seldom seen in public, but her APP
pearance at the gala opera night in
honor of Prince Henry's recent visit
to New York showed that her pop
ularity is undiminished and that her
beauty and graciOusness will always
preserve the belle in the youthful ma
iron, once first lady in the land"

Mrs. Henriette c. Olberg,. superinten-
dent Flax and Hemp Exhibition at the
Omaha Exhibition, writes from Albert
Lea, Mimi, as follows:
"ThiS spring I contracted an aggra-
waiting cold, having been exposed TO the
damp weather. Cafarrh of my throat
and head followed, which persisted In
remaining, notwithstanding I applied
the usual remedies.
Reading of the merits of Peruna in
the papers, decided to try it and soon
found that all that has been said of your
medicine in such cases is true.
al am very pleased with the satisfac-
tory results obtained from using Peruna,
am entirely well, and consider it most
valuable family medicine"
HENRIETTE c. OLBERG.
Summer colds require prompt treat
ment. They are always grave, and
sometimes dangerous. The prompt
ness and surety with which Peruna
acts In these cases has saved many
lives. a large dose of Peruna should
be taken at the first appearance of cold
in summer, followed by small and Oft
repeated doses. There is no other rem
edy that medical science can furnish, so
reliable and quick in its action as Peruna.

A Crazy Tramp.

A crazy tramp, of medium height and light hair, with a shot gun and a small roll Of bedding was seen at Mir. Ira Harper's, on Sunday, November l6.
 The Misses Harper and some girl friends were playing house at the foot cf mountain near Mir. Harpers, when they heard shot, but paid no attention to it, but on hearing another proceeded to find from whence it came. One of them had been sent to the house for something. When nearl y back she espied the crazy man on the mountain She called the others and showed him to them. Just as they turned to look at him, he pointed his gun at them. or course they ran, one fell and could hardly run as she was so scared.
 When they reached the house he shot at them: but was coming down a very steep place and fell dowu. They looked for q gun but could find none. He came straight to the house, but the dogs drove him away. He went up the canyon and when he had gone a short ways he over took Frank Harper and made him give up his hat, vest and shoes That was the last seen of him but who can say where he is.

Crazy Mexican Killed.

The ERA last week mentioned that a Mexican was shot near Pitts brick yard by another Mexican, and brought to the Clifton hospital for treatment, where he died Saturday last. Before dying he stated that the man who shot him was evidently crazy, as he had never seen him before. The stranger approached him and asked him if he was d tramp, stating that IL was his business to kill tramps. The man re- piled that he was not tramp, and had work at Clifton. This did not satisfy the tramp killer. who drew his gun and fired the fatal shot, then made bis escape.
 On Friday last 2 Mexican with a shot gun and a pistol arrived at Al Bishops camp in the Mayhower dis trict, and asked for something to eat It was given him, and after dinner he left the house and went to the pasture where there were some horses. Mr. Bishop and two others followed him, thinking that he meant to get away with one of the horses. When they came near the pas ture the Mexican took q shot at Mir. Bishop. MT. Bishop returned the fire. An inquest was held after the battle and Mr. Bishop exon- Orated from all blame. At the inquest it was developed that the dead MeXi- can was the man who fired on the in- offensive Mexican at Pitts brick yard. Mir. Bishop stated that the man acted very queer, and he now has no doubt that he was crazy, though at the time he thought he might be fugitive from justice, and was nervous on that account.

Frank Dow, James Miller, Chas. Conway, Virgil Grochon, Ernest Erich son and Ed. Morrill,, returned last week from hunting expedition in the Sierra Madre mountains of Old Mex ico, where they spent four weeks very pleasantly, They killed plenty of deer on the trip, and Mir. Dow had the honor, so he reports, of killing a lynx. Mr. Dow says that MT. Conway and another man ran the lynx out of cave, and it came directly towards him with great leaps and bounds. Mir. Dow cooked both barrels of his shot gun, and then waited until the fero- cious animal came within six feet of him, when he drew bead on its head and let both barrels go. The lynx fell dead at his feet. There is another lynx story being told by Mir. Conway which does not agree with the above but that is another story.

 Thanking the public kindly for past favors I remain as usual a friend to one and all. Sincerely yours,

MINES AND MINING.
GOLD BELT NOTES.

Mir. II. F. Dewey, of Butte City, Montana, has been Investigating the Stevens group and the Home Copper Cos. gold group in the interest of Montana investors, and is very enthusi- actic as to the value of both proper ties.
 The old Glorietta and Ruby claims adjacent to athe Home group, which have in years past produced much gold ore for the arrastras, are being again worked by Thos. Campbell, and every vacant foot of ground in the gold belt is being seized upon by the invading prOspectcr.
 The recent strike of Thos. Campbell ou his Atlantic" claim, lying betw cen the property of the Home Copper Go. and George Stevens, being the exten- sion of Stevens "Jerry" claim. is at- tracting general attention, being q free-milling ore assaying $50 gold per ton. The vein is 24 inches wide and gives every indication of permanency.
 One great point in favor of all gold ores in this section is that they are free-milling with out exception, and amalgamate instantaneOusly on con- tract with the quicksilver. With this point in view. the great low grade lodges of gold of the Home Co. cannot fail to be, with development and suffi- cient machinery, second ''Home- stake" The company has water-right on Eagle river, which insures them plenty of water for any number of stamps.
 Mrs. Walters and her daughter, Miss Lillian, of Morenci, have for sey- eral days been the guests of Mrs. Geo. E. Stevens at the Home Copper Cos. camp. Camp Molder. They were highly pleased with the fresh air and choice scenery. They left for home on Monday with sharp appetite after exploring the underground workings of the Lillian and Buzzard's Shadow mines, which impressed them favor ably as evidence of MT. Molder's en- ergy and push.
