OF SALMON MAY GO UP
Tidal Wave I'm October Greatly Inter-
feres with in
Northern Alaska.

SEATTLE, Wash, March 25.-Further
particulars Of the havoc and devastation
wrought by the tidal wave which swept
over Bristol bay in October last and dashed
it's fury on the Nushgak, Kogglung and
Naknek river salmon canning properties
have been received here, having been sent
down by special dog train to Chignik,
thence by mail steamer to Valdes.
The indications are that the damage Is
much greater than at first reported and
will probably have a serious effect on the
prospective pack Of Alaska salmon In the
above districts for the season Of 1908.
The advices are to the effect that out
OF a total of twenty-five canneries which
operated last season on Bristol bay, thir-
teen have been damaged to such an extent
that it will be impossible to make repairs
in time to put UP more than half the pack
at the very utmost, and It is further stated
that five large and important plants have
been literally swept out OF existence. AS
the district covered by the rivers on
Bristol bay is that from which is de-
rived a great portion OF the red salmon
put up In AiaskaEast seasons pack
amounting togover aimEliion cases-and as
the, total pack of 1902 OF red salmon, while
phenomenal, was insufficient to meet the
requirements Of the trade, the prices OF
red Alaska salmon in the immediate future
will, in all probability. be must higher
than at present. 81.

SETTLES TITLE TO ESTATE
One Sister Gets Major Portion of the
Estate of McGOvern
Brothers.

DEADWooD, g.. D., March 25.-(Special.)
"A suit which has been pending before
the courts of the state for a number Of
years., involving the possession of the estate
OF Hugh and Thomas McGovern, deceased,
was settled on Tuesday by the decision of
Judge Rice Of the Eighth judicial circuit
court. Hugh and Thomas MeGovern, in the
early days Of the Black Hills, we're pros
pectors, and between them had accumu-
lated. considerable mining property in the
Bald Mountain district. Thomas McGovern
died early In the '90s, but even at that time
the new process of treating ores was get
ting a foothold in the Hills, and the prop
erty which had cost the brothers so much
time and hard work was becoming valuable,
for 1t was better than a mere prospect, its
development proving the existence Of ore
shoots carrying high values and of large
extent. Hugh McGovern did not live long
after his brother, but followed him to the
grave in 1896. Shortly after Thomas death
a sister, Mrs. Annie Costello, came to Dead
wood and made her home with her brother
Hugh until his death in 1895. Shortly before
his death Hugh gave Mrs. Costello a deed
to all Of his property in the Black Hills,
but this deed she did not cause to be placed
on record until several years after. After
the death Of Hugh another sister, Mrs. Eliz-
abeth Schrader, came from Denver and laid
claim to a share OF the estate as one of the
heirs. Judge Rice, in his decision Tuesday,
while holding that Mrs. Schrader is an
heir, decided that she is not entitled to
the same benefits as lie Mrs. Costello, who,
under the decision. will receive the greater
part OF the estate, which has increased in
value until today 1t is worth at least $780,
900.

ONLY PARTLY TRUE.


AANAa
Il is the common belief that what lie
popularity known as catarrh lie simply a
chronic cold In the head. This is true as
far as II goes, but as a matter Of fact ca
tarrh is by no means confined to the nasal
passage. but extends wherever the mucous
membrane extends. which means nearly
every part Of the body.
The mucous membrane is the inside skin
Of the body and is nearly as extensive as
the outside skin, and any Inflammation Of
this membrane causing an extra secretion
Of fluid is really catarrh.
Catarrh is, therefore, an old enemy dis
guised by many confusing names, for in
stance: Rhinitis lie nasal catarrh; laryngitis
and pharyngitis, throat catarrh; gastritls,
stomach catarrh; cystitis and nephritis, ca
tarrh of the bladder and kidneys.
Therefore, although the location OF the
trouble gives It various names, in reality
the sum total is catarrh and nothing else.
Do not make the mistake OF thinking you
have no catarrh because the head and nose
appear to be clear. II there is a cough,
tickling in the throat and hoarseness you
have throat catarrh, IL there is no appetite,
but nausea, gagging and disgust for food,
especially in the morning, you have catarrh
Of the stomach.
The surest treatment for every form Of
catarrh is an external remedy which acts
especially on the blood and mucous mem
branes; such a remedy is the new prepara-
tiop sold everywhere by druggists under the
name Of stuart's Catarrh Tablets, a medi-
cine in pleasant tablet form and containing
all the best and latest specifics for catarrh.
stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain in highly
concentrated form, bloodroot, red gum Of
the Eucalyptus tree, and many other
equally valuable curative elements, and no
one who suffers from any form Of catarrh
and has seen the inef1clency Of douches,
sprays and powders will ever go back to
them after once trying so pleasant a prepa-
ration as Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and one
which gives 30 much relief in so short a
time.
All druggists sell stuart's Catarrh Tab
let's at so cents for full sized package and
the regular daily use Of them will ef-
fectually cure this troublesome and danger

CENTRAL CITY, s. D., March 25.-(spe-
cial Telegram. 1.-THE hosting shaft house
at the Bingham shaft Of the Hidden For
tune Mining company was destroyed by
fire late last night, entailing a loss to
the company Of at least S45, 900.
The location of the shaft house at the,
mouth Of Poorman's gulch made it i'm
possible for the fire department to reach
the fire with a line OF hose. The FIRE was
discovered in the changing room and the
men at work in The mine were notified
and all we're safely hoisted to the surface;
but not without the display of considerable
bravery and nerve on the part Of the en-
gineer in charge of the hoist.
The fire commenced with the timbering
in the big three compartment shaft and
has burned to the first station. seventy-ive
feet from the surface. The men are now
fighting Il at this level in an endeavor
to keep from communicating with the
working tunnel and from continuing down
the shaft.
Should the FIRE get away the damage to
the property will be hard to estimate.
