accepted the proposition, and u board
composed Of g. }. Johns, william
Kitchen, Il. p. Bergman, j. p.
II olland, and j. w. Cowden was
selected ut "a citizens meeting held
last week. The committee practically
accepted the lumber company's scale
Of wages In the matter Of cordwood,
and the paragraph In the report
relative to the employment Of Japs
reads as follows:
"As regards the Japanese question,
the Sumpter Lumber company has
let u contract to Messrs. Kato,

Work on the big mill will now be
proceeded with. The company has
already finished its log dam and the
clearing Of the site was we'll under

say II they succeed in raising $500

Burnt River people will furnish,
they will be enabled to push the
road through this season without
any difficulty
The Burnt River people are en-
ceedingly anxious for the road and
will come forward literally to aid
the project. 1t Is not probable that
they will give any large amount Of
money, but they offer its equivalent
In work, and are willing to stand
their share in this way. There does
not appear to be any doubt now
about the roads being built this

Its value is s63s, 900, 200.
"For years New York has been
shipping gold to London. Now
as result Of the war for financial
supremacy, the Bank Of England has
been forced to pay the remarkably
high interest of four per cent to
keep gold from being shipped from
England to America.
"When the $50, 200, 200 Khaki
loan was foated in March, 1900, a
very large part of II was taken by
American banking houses. More
than half Of the five per cent ex-
chequer bonds of $50, ,OOO,OOO were
taken in New York. OF the $780,

Its output was only $50, 200, 600

20, 900, 900 less than that Of the

This is not gentle word but when
you think how liable you are not to
purchase the only remedy universally
known and remedy that has had the
largest sale of any medicine in the
world since 1868 for the cure and treat
ment of consumption and throat and
lung troubles without losing its great
popularity after these years, you will
be thankful we called your attention to
Boschee's German Syrup. There are
many ordinary cough remedies made
by druggist and others that are cheap
and good for light colds perhaps, but
for severe coughs, bronchitis, Group

there is difficult expectoration ana

One of the boldest and most success
full burglaries ever perpetrated in
Dawson occurred early Sunday night.
While making his usual rounds OF
inspection Oricer Hill found the rear
door of the store of the Dawson Drug
Co. open, and investigation showed
that burglary had been committed.
Mr.. c. A. Harris, manager of the
store, was notified, and upon his arriv-
81 it was soon discovered that the loss
would run up into the hundreds of dol
lars.
The thieves effected an entrance in
to the store by renewing large GLASS
in the rear door of the building and
then lifting the bar which fastened It,
The robbery had evidently been plann-
ed beforehand, as nothing in the store

Tested by the burglars except jewelrv.
The jewelry was in glass show case,
which was kept locked. This, how
ever, was no barrier, as the burglars
easily broke it, and were free to help
themselves to it's contents.
Among the articles Mr.. Harris miss
es are thirteen gold watches, ranging
in price from Sl5 to s35; q large mum
Der of solid gold rings, worth from
$3.50 to $40 each, and many pins,
lockets and other trinKets. The
burglars evidently were good judges of
jewelrY. as they took nothing but solid
gold articles. Their booty amounted TO
about $500.
Onicers and detectives are at work,
and it is believed that the burglars
will soon be located and arrested.

of the trouble is removed entirely.

CAR OF MULES KILLED.
Serious Wreck of a Seaboard
Freight Train.

A Seaboard Air Line freight train
had serious wreck near Hurtsboro,
Ala, Thursday. Seven cars left the
track, and we're piled upon each other
down An embankment.
The bottom car was loaded with
mules, and the six cars that were on
top mashed the car completely into
splinters. Seven of the mules escaped
death, and are at large in that section
of the country.
The other six cars were loaded with
provisions, and the mixture was regu-
lar conglomeration of almost every
thing in the line of eatables, fertiliz.
ers, clothing, etc., and the whole
thing was a complete loss.
The cause of the accident is suppos-
ed to have been due to the spreading
of the track on account of the wet
weather.
