THUNDER MOUNTAIN.

Reports from the New Thunder Mountain
Gold Fields grow steadily better. There win
undoubtedly be great rush into the district
this year. Last year the news concerning
the new discoveries of free-milling ore had
only begun to leak out and before October
more than &c, 900 claims were fled.
From every quarter there will be people
going to Thunder Mountain, and all win
want reliable information as to the best route
and how soon the trail will be open. MANY
who cannot go will want to invest in a good
property there, and the time to do that is now
when money is needed for mine equipment,
The Thunder Mountain Gold Mining and
Milling Company has a splendid property of
l2o acres, across which there is a tremendous
vein OF free-milling ore 80 feet wide and RIM
ming right into Rainbow Peak. Mr. Charles

He also possesses full information REGARDING
the district and makes it a point to answer
all questions about it, without charge. SO that
all who are interested may write and get this
information free and at first hand.

sents made its first public Offering of stock y
January, and so many subscriptions havebs 2

Tor the mine has been purchased and prepai d

1t is estimated that fully three millions of
dollars OF machinery and equipment is now
on the way to Thunder Mountain for various
companies. One of the companies sold stock
year ago at so cents share and now it is
not to be bought for $500 per share. Thirty
other mines are opened and are getting into
richer ore every day.
The property which this Company owns is
second to none in the district, and the more
one learns about it and its officers the greater
the desire becomes to own some of its stock.

TRADE REVIEW.
Fear of Future Eject of some strikes
the Only UnfavorabIe Factor In
the Business situation.

New York, March 21.-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
only one distinctly unfayorable fac
tor is reported in the business situa-
ton, and it exists more in the fear of
what may happen than through any
thing that has actually occurred. Sew
eral strikes are in progress but none
that seriously hamper industry, al
though many controversies are threat
, ened that may interrupt trade unless
agreements are speedily reached.
Progress has been made in relieving
traffic blockades and deliveries are
more prompt, yet railway facilities
need much extension if they are to
keep pace with the nations growth.
Jobbing trade is very large, and the adj
vancing season stimulates retail sales
in many lines. Reports from the west
are especially satisfactory. Agricul-
turists are making extensive improve
ments, notably in the purchase of the
most modern machinery, buying of
spring and summer merchandise is
heavy for the interior, and mills are
resuming that have long been idle
because coke could not be secured. A
careful canvass of building operations
at the leading cities makes fair com
parison with last year, outside of Chi
cago, where special conditions caused
exceptional activity in 1902. Returns
are unanimous in disclosing decrease
compared with 1901, however, which
was the banner year in this respect.
High cost of material and wages Of
labor are undoubtedly retarding in
huences at the present time. Railway
earnings thus far available for March
show an increase of JAG per cent. over
last year and 26.1 per cent. over 1901

ALCOHOL DISTILLED
OUT OF THE POTATO

Under the patronage of Emperor Will
lam there was held in Berlin recently
unique exposition, calculated to in
crease the Importance of the potato in
German agricultural and Industrial life.
The exhibits consisted of a variety Of
machinery for distilling alcohol from
potatoes.
The Emperor desires to create a sup
ply and demand for a native German
product capable of taking the place of
natural gas and petroleum and also to
enable the German farmers who can
raise potatoes in all parts of the en-
pire in practically unlimited quantity
to find a new and profitable use for
their crops.
By simple processes every farmer can
become his own manufacturer of al
cohol. In 1902 something like $4,000, 900
gallons OF denaturalized alcohol was dis
titled and used for motor vehicles,
lamps, and cooking purposes, and
"spiritus." as the product is called.

FOOD VALUE OF RICE
SHOWN IN JAPANESE
Nutritive Quality Largely Removed in
Polishing the Grains.

Not so very long ago the Rev. II. s

Society, expressed himself as wondering
very greatly that the Japanese, whose

rice, could be noted, as they are. Tor

study the rice industry as the repre-
sentative of the Agricultural Depart
ment. Prof. KnaDp's statements pos
sess interest for those outside scientific
circles. and we quote from them as fol-
lows:
Il have not the analysis of Japan rice
before me. but my recollection Is that
IL is richer In fats than other rices, but
not in protein compounds or flesh form
ers. Being richer In fats, it has more
flavor than other rices. The reason the
japanese are so muscular is that they
do not polish their rice. In American
mills the outside coating of the rice
kernel is rubbed off; first, the outer husk
Is removed; second, the bran. Just within
the husk. is removed. and. third, the
solid kernel is then rubbed to remove
the rough protein surface and give the
kernel a gloss. This is called polishing
and the material removed is one of the
most nutritious substances In ali ce-

three-fourths Of the flavor and about

ONE WAY OF TELLING

In the first place. you must remember
that about half OF the male population
of the country has been named after

and a few others for great men. like
Dewey or Chauncey Depew.
so all you have to do is to know
when these men were at the zenith OF
their popularity. OF course. with Jack
son and those men exceptions must be
made, for people have not ceased to
name their boys after them to this
da-.
For instance, here are the names OF
W. H H Johnson. W. Scott Smith, A.
L. North. and NJ. F. Smathers. William
Henry Harrison was elected President
in 1886. so Mr.. Johnson is about sixty
seven years old. Winfield Scott ran for
President in 1852. Smith Is therefore
about fifty-one. Figuring on Abraham
Lincoln and Willard Fillmore We find
that Mr. North is about forty-three and

KINEO, Me-. Sept. ia movement is
on foot among local guides to demand
an increase in pay from SO to "a day,
and a paper to this effect which has
been circulated has been generally 3ign-
ed. The idea was at first to have the
advance take effect at once, but it has
since been decided to put the matter
over until another year, with the idea
of forming a union of all the guides in
the State and establishing uniform
price.

Conditions have changed greatly in
the last few years, and guiding has now
come to be a bread and butter propo-
sition- The vocation of the woodsman
the trapper and hunter is fast disap-
pearing, and the winter in the lumber
camp is not what it used to be. In
other words. guiding has become our
occupation.
The best guides are giving their en-
ployers the result 90 an experience
which 1t has taken years to gain. and
there is much hardship and a certain
element of danger connected with the
work.
The announcement of a proposed in
crease in price for guides is not meeting
with favor among those who spend time
in the woods. The general expression is
that the price is now at it's limit, and
many say they will not pay an adii-
tional dollar. but will stop camping

causing consumption.
The intimate and close relations be-
tween the various air tubes and the
lungs make Il easy for neglected bron-
chial and catarrhal troubles TO extend
down into and fasten themselves upon
the breathing apparatus.
That consumption is the most terrible
and deadly OF all diseases IS proven by
the fact that the deaths each year from
this awful scourge are greater than from
all other contagious diseases combined.
At the first sign or indication of trou-
BILE, the sufferer should Immediately seek
the best medical advice he can find. in
stead Of wasting precious time with
