Ethel Bush were married they were
poor in everything Sut luck, pluck and
faith in their future. Their worldly
possessions consisted of just enough
to pay their passage to San Francisco,
thence to Juneau, and on to Forty
Mile Camp. and provide themselves
with the necessary stores for year.
On the 18th they were married at
the pretty little church in Fresno, and
their friends in great numbers gath
cred about them to congratulate them
and bid them a fearful adieu.
Next day the bride and groom took
their departure for San Francisco.
Laura imprinted kiss on the young
brides lips and whispered:
Give it to him. Oh, | wish | could
so with you!"
They went to San Francisco, where
they met the remainder of their party
bound for the klondike. Among the
party was a tall young fellow named
Dick Ronald, from Seattle, who from
his height soon acquired the soubri-
quet of Long Dick. There were half
a dozen other men, some young and
some middle-aged, but Ethel was the
only lady in the party bound for the
frozen north.
The voyage and journey to Juneau
was made without any unusual discom-
fort, but from that on it became peril
Gus and every mile marked with dan
ger.
They engaged some Indians as
guides and an Esquimaux with the
euphonious name of Umstch, which
Long Dick translated for convenience
into "Hemstitch."
Umstitch was engaged as a sort of
general superintendent of the dogs and
sleds, of which they had several to
convey themselves and packs across
the bleak. white deserts the dog being
the only animal capable of making
those journeys in all weather.
The accommodations for the young
bride were poor, but Clarence did the
very best he could for her. They car
ried stove and tent, and every night
the latter was pitched in some spot
where the snow was hard. Beds Of
boughs were made, and Ethel was
wrapped in furs until there was little
chance for her to suffer from cold.
She rode all the way from Juneau to
the mining camp we'll muffled in bear
skin robes and furs, strapped on sled
or boat as the case might be, and
while this method of travel was much
better than walking, the uncertainty
of her position made it anything but
comfortable

CHAPTER III.
Pau s Discovery.

1t is essential at this point in our
story to return to the Klondike. 1t is
again night, and the little camp on
the densely wooded stream is wild
with excitement and confusion. Men
were hurrylng to and fro and giving
utterance to angry exclamations.
Among the most excited was our old
friend Gid Myers. Gid had a rope in
his hand, and was gesticulating wildly
toward a cabin that had been erected
on the banks of the stream, around
which stood four or five men with
rifles in their hands.
No wonder the gold-diggers were ex-
cited. A terrible crime had been com
mitted in their little community. 1t
was the first that had ever been
known on the Klond,ke, and these
hardy frontiersmen felt like wreaking
vengeance upon the perpetrators.

FIRST STAGE OF CATARRH.
A Serious Mistake Which Thou
sands Are Making.

The first stage of catarrh is what is

may be in the head. nose. throat or lungs.
Its beginning is sometimes so severe as
to cause chill and considerable fever, or
it may be SO slight as to not hinder person
from his usual business. In perhaps a
majority of cases little or no attention is
paid to the first stage of catarrh and hence
it is that nearly one-half of the people have
chronic catarrh in some form.

New York, Sept. 1.-Menaced by a
disease which has baffled the best medi-
cal skill of the island, the health de-
partment officials of Cuba have appealed
to officers of Columbia university and
Jefferson Medical college of Philadelphia

bacteriologists of those institutions are

ment of the United States government
in an effort to determine the nature of
the disease. All details of the investl-
cations are refused.
The disease in many of its symptoms
resembles bubonic plague. but it Is said
to be more swift in its progress and
more deadly in its effects.

THAT ATCHISON ROAD.
Mr.. Close Goes Over to See About
1t.

Assistant Attorney General Close goes
to Atchison tonight to meet there to-
morrow with the state board of charities
and go over the legal propositions with
regard to building the road from the
city of Atchison to the Soldiers Or
phans home. The last legislature APP
propriated $40, 900 to build this road from
the city limits to the home, with the
understanding that the city will pave a
srteet out to the city limits where the
state road will commence.
The city of AtchisOn is in a muss over
this paving and there is row on about
it The board of charities and Mr. Close
will look the field over tomorrow to de-
eide what shall be done about it. The
state may have to condemn some land
through which to run its road. The
present road to the home is very rough
and in bad weather is practically inn
passable with loads. and as great
amount of coal has 20 be hauled out to
the home it is a serious matter with the
board of charities. That is the chief
reason why the last legislature made the
appropriation.
If the appropriation is not expended
this year it will revert to the general
revenue fund and would have to be re-
appropriated if used for the road. and
another legislature might not have Bale
Waggener's eloquence on the floor to
influence it.

NO MINERS STRIKE.
Leavenworth Operators viii
Pay So Cents Per Ton to Men.

Leavenworth, Kan, Sept. las a
well known miner said a few days ago.
there win be no strike of the miners N
Leavenworth county today. The state
ment was made the same day Messrs.
Mooney and ColvfIle stated in Kansas
City that there would be.
Last night at midnight the old scale
of 81 cents passed into history and this
morning finds the miners without any
scale of wages to work by, but this does
not mean that the men in the four mines
will cease work A conference of
miners and operators is called for Sep
tember 10, and in the meantime the OPP
orators have announced that they Will
pay 95 cents per ton which is the price
fixed for mining coal at Pittsburg, Kan,
at the recent conference.
John Mitchell, national president of
the u. M W., has taken a very sensible
course in the difficulty and has advised
against a strike. He told the miners
to meet again in conference with the
operators and talk over their differences.
This shows that President Mitchell is
not favorable 10 the miners quitting
work and the Leavenworth miners who
do not want to quit are correspondingly
happy.
The only hitch in the present plan to
draw up scale of wages is the ques-
ton of brushing. The Leavenworth
miners UIQ not dSk pay lOI
but in one of the Missouri mining COM
munities this demand was made. There
they do not brush One-fifth as much as
they do in the Leavenworth mines. but
Mooney was sent as a delegate to the
convention and told to demand it. The
Leavenworth delegates to the convention
were not instructed TO ask for this
There is the hitch. Mooney is holding
out for that which he was instructed to
ask for and a strike nearly resulted.
The scale of wages made at Pittsburg
seems to satisfy the Leavenworth min
ers. They say they can now make more
money than ever before and all of them
wish to work. and will do So obtaining
95 cents per ton from the operators.
