Tacoma, Wash, March 11.-A
Dawson dispatch received here Gays
there is wild excitement ip the Up
per Yukon country over new gold
strike, which promises to throw the
far-famed Klondike in the shade.
The story is that on Duncan Greek,
tributary of Clear Greek, in the
Stewart river district, a pay streak
seven miles long has been found,
which pays $1oo per day to the
man. Bedrock is said to range
from 25 to loo feet deep, and the
whole range of the deposit has
been found by actual work to be
very rich. !,
When the news first percolated
to the small settlements on the Up
per Yukon the whole population
stampeded en- maese to the scene of
the strike, and as nothing has since
been heard from them it has been
impossible to get further details.
The general impression in Daw-
son is that the claims of the stam-
peders are we'll founded, and that
the new Eldorado which has been
sought SO long and SO earnestly has
been found at last.
In corroboration of this view il
is now recalled that at intervals
during the past year or two small
party of Swedes have been working
quietly in that part OF the country
whence comes the news of the new
find. and that they have at times
appeared in Dawson with well I'LL.
ed "pokes." Their reticence at diff
ferent times aroused comment, but
! all efforts to induce them to revea
their place Of operation failed, ane
| it is now thought that the secre
has at last leaked out, and that tn
diggings where they secured th,
| dust is the Mecca of the last batcl
| of stampeders.

Like that at the doors of a shaky
banking institution, only the rush
is to pay not to withdraw money.
Under the law rebate of 3 ger
cent is allowed for payment of tax
es before next Saturday night, and
most of the taxpayers of this coun.
ty are sufficiently awake to secure
the benefits of the rebate. There
are five employees in the Office to
wait upon the callers, and all are
kept busy. If the rate keeps up
through, the week there will be few
left against whom the county will
have claim for taxes due.

RECORDS OF TRUST.
Fire Eroca Heaven 70 Wipe Out evi.
dence Of lnfamy.

"One OF the most gigantic trusts
ever formed on this continent said a
Southern senator. was in the carly
days OF the republic. Several gentle
men organized themselves into COM
pany for the purpose of purchasing
from the state of Georgia her unclaiEi
ed western territory, extending FROM
the Mississippi on the west to the At
lantic on the east, and from the thirty
first degree of latitude north of the
equator on the south to the southern
boundary of Tennessee on the north,
including what LOW constitutes the
territory of Georgia, Alabama and Mis-
slssippi. This new territory was pnr-
chased for $500000, and this WAS the
commencement of the famous Yazoo
fraud, about which so much was said
and written. The bill authorizing the
sale passed the Georgia legislature in
January, 1885, and it is said members
were paid all the way from two ne
:sroes to 900 acres of land to vote
OR the bill. Corruption by bribery
vas open. Great indignation spread
tiiIOUSilOuI tie Stdl6, duu upon lllG DIS
senblirg of the legislature one year
later the act was declared null and
void. The records relating to the in
famous act were ordered burned, in
order that no trace of so unconstitu-
tional, vile and fraudulent transaction
should remain public. The infamous
records were placed in one vast heap,
and a sunglass was used to set it on
fire, SO that it might be said that the
heaven. This was the first and only
instance in the history where legisla,
tive body personally superintended the
destruction by fire of it's previous rec
urds Of corruption"

Georqe Gould's Start in Business.

George GouId's Start in Business.
Scarcely had George Gould taken
hold of the vast interests entrusted to
his care when he had a serious alter
cation with J. Pierpont Morgan over
the proposed purchase Of the New
York and Northern railroad by the
Manhattan elevated railroad. Gould
left Morgan's offices much angered,
them again from that day to this. One
Of Jay Gould's intimate friends, hear
ing of this circumstance, volunteered
a bit of advice to hte young man in
about these words:
George, as an admirer of Your
father, and as one interested in your
highest welfare. I seriously hope you
will not commit the blunder at the
beginning of your career of antagoniZ-
ing the leading interests in the busi-
Is world
George said nothing, but evidently
it set him to thinking That remark
able business ability for which fond
father gave him credit not long after
ward developed in a way that showed
he was possessed of an acuteness that
no one dreamed Of If he should not
antagonize, thought he, he should
make alliances with the great powers
in the business world. But he had
broken with Morgan. He should,
therefore. join issues with others
equally great. OR greater, if possible.
He turned. says a writer in the May
Cosmopolitan, to the Rockefellers,
those commercial giants whose SUI
premacy has been unchallenged for
more than decade. Much has been
said during the last year or two of
the financial backing which the STAN
dard Oil interests have been giving
to Gould. He who can answer this
question will be able to foretell the
outcome of the battle of railroad
giants which is now in progress at

By decree of nature, one-half
the world fiourisbes at the expense of
the other half. The sparrow chases
the butterfly but the hawk chases the
sparrow. For the problem of life is
twofold. 1t is not enough merely to
eat; it is necessary to avoid being
eaten. Yet nature detests killing for
Killings sake. Massacre forms no
part of her great plan. So we see
that every creature is provided with
some more or less effective quality OF
defence, by means of which the at
tacks of it's natural enemies are rem.
dered less frequent or less deadly.
Thus, the antelope, by means of it's
superior speed, at times escapes from
the lion. The armadillo, rolled in it's
wondrous coat of mail, lies secure
among score of hungry, gnawing
foes, while the white hare, scarcely
distirguishable from the snow on
which it crouches. is often over.
looked by his foe the fox. But of all
creatures none nave received more
ample protection than the insects.
Some of them possess stings, others
bite, and a few puff out clouds of
poisonous vapor to stupefy or blind
their pursuers. Again, there are in.
sects clothed in impenetra5le armor,
inserts covered with sharn spines
and prickles and others whose means
of defence consists in nothing but a
likeness to the objects which sur.
sound them.

Proof That 1t Is Net Confined to Sex,
Age or Condition.
The crude humor that kIakes the
snail boy want to throw . stone at
silk hat on a man bristli1.g with dig
nifty is not to be disposed of as
mere ill-conceived prank of youth.
There is deep in most people a spring
of unsubduable humor that leaps glee-
fully when conscious dignity gets
fair tumble. That is why, for all the
soemnity of the place, the soberest
charity and the best bred prcpriety in
the world could not prevent titrer at
a little farce that happened in a
church in Brooklyn
A gentleman and his wife, who were
offended at something the preacher
said, gravely rose and stalked toward
the door, with their heads held high
in assertive disdain. The wife follow
ed the husband.
Unfortunately, when they were half
way down the aisle, the husband drop
ped his glove and stopped to pick it
up Fate, the humorist, determined
that the wife should keep her head SO
high that she did not see her husband
stoop. She went sailing on and dou',i
ed over Et.n in riotous confusion.
The congregation held its breath a.la
kept its composure. The two recover
ed themselves and went on. Hoping
to escape quickly, they turned to what
looked like a side door. The husband
pulled it open with an impressive
swing. Before he could close it out
tumbled the window pole and long
duster and step ladder. The con-
gregation could hold its mirth no
longer, and man and wife fled to the
real exit in undignified haste, amid
general and persuasive snicker.
