THE VON-HAMM
SHORTAGE CASE

The following announcement in the
evening papers caused considerable
comment on the street yesterday aft
ernoon:
TO WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN.
March IL, 1904.
: A. B. Watson, formerly employed in
our Insurance Department, is no longer
authorized to transact business for US,
nor to issue policies or to collect pre-
miums in behalf of the Queen Insur-
ance Company and the Agricultural
Insurance Company, for which we are
the Agents.
THE Won HAMM-YOUNG CO., LTD.
High Sheriff Brown stated that the
firm had called his attention to an
alleged shortage in accounts for which
Mr.. Watson was said to be responsible,
but no legal action was taken in the
premises as the firm hoped to effect
some sort of compromise.
Later in the day business men who
seemed to have some knowledge of the
matter, stated that it had practically
resolved itself into a question of
veracity between Mr.. Watson and the
boOkkeeper, the latter asserting that he
had not received certain sums of money
from Mr.. Watson, while Mr.. Watson
asserted that he had turned the funds
over to the bookkeeper but had neg
Iected to take receipt therefor.
A A. Young, of the firm of Won
Hamm- Young & Co, refused to discuss
the matter in any of its phases.

If your coat or shoulders a white

the cause, which is a germ. Newbro's

waste have vanished from the
valley forever.
An old Indian pack trail leads
through the valley to prosperous
city west of the mountains, and on
it you occasionally meet pair of
prospectors wandering placidly
along. They come to camp and
spend an hour or two in conversa-
ton before proceeding on their
way. Prospectors, belated
geologist or two, and very few
campers are the only visitors.
Those who have been to the valley
always plan to return to it. They
say there is no other place in the
world that is so satisfying, no
other place where all men, good
and bad, find tongues in trees,
books in the running brooks, SER
mons in stones and good in every
thing"

Four-Decker Pie at Yarmouth.

The fishing town of Yarmouth,

feast, reestablished it's title to
gastronomic renown recently by
sea pie dinner. Sixty men dined

decker, the keel Of which was laid
with beef bones, the triple bulk
headings were of short crusts, the
bunkers were filled with beefsteak
and OK kidneys and the holds
slowed with meat and vegetables.
The hull, of short crust, took
stone and half of -four, and the
vegetables comprised onions, car
rots, turnips, and potatoes. Three
expert carvers were engaged in
dividing the immense CONNECTION,
which took nine hours to boil, and
which was served steaming hot.

William E. Curtis, the famous
correspondent of the Chicago
Record Herald, is rarely attained
by newspaper writer's. Beginning
his career in Chicago in 1872 as

position Of managing editor. He

government appointment as Sec

Afterwards cooperating with Sec
rotary of State James G. Blaine,
Mr.. Curtis organized the work of
the bureau of American republics,
with the result that he was placed
in charge of that organization, and
at the worlds Columbian Expo
sition he distinguished himself by
his labors as the executive head of
the Latin-American department.
As correspondent of the Chicago
Record Herald, Mr.. Curtis travels
have carried him into every section
of the United States as we'll as in
to all quarters of the globe. His

Rube on Magazines.
Mr.. Edutor,

Mr.. Edutor,
Dear Sur:-You kin talk all
you want to bout them gun mag
azines that them Rushin an Japo
fellers are usin' over Their in that
Yeller See scrap, but they can't
compare with the paper magazines
that git to me. No, they can't. [
believe them chaps that makes
paper magazines have got more
wheels in their heds to the square
inch than a latter bug has got
black spots on his back, an they
must keep every gull darn one of
them a goin' to beet bIazes all the
hull time. Why, sur, when you
think of them magazines it's won
derful. What nice work they can
do. You no there is one part of
them magazines that's simply
main to me, an that is the adver-
tisin' an picters. When a Teller
kin pick up one of them magazines
an see eatamobiles, old maids an
such like so gull darn natural that
he forgets where be is until he
jams his he'd gainst his cell door
tryin' to step in one of them no
pullin, no pushin' go like helle
allie samee rigs, then [ tell you
they are gittin' things down to a
mighty fine pint. Say, don't you
think that if them purity girls you
see in them magazines were run
min loose round Saltwater that
they'd git ketched? 1 think they
wood. Honestly to square [ do.
But [ was sayin' that them fell
lers gifts things in them magazines
so lifelike that it makes a critter
like me wunder where he was half
the time. It's pretty darn bard
on a Teller to reed hull page
chawin' the rag bout cheap whis-
ky. They say you kin git four
quarts of good slippery water with
five cut glass mugs that's worth at
least five plunks single peace
(cut glass is deer you no) an all
you have to pay is $500. Now I
don't want to say that them people
don't tell the truth, but by gum if
they don't sound jest like myself
when I try to whitewash the facts.
I say Teller can't git it, an if any
Of them riters don't believe what [
am sayin' is true let him swop
places with me.
Then there's another Teller down
east that has got it in his he'd that
he coodn't sell an acre Of land or
buy it unless it was on his face.
You no that Teller will live forever
cause he looks jest the same all
the time. [ spose he'll never die
till his face cracks. Did you ever
hear tell of Teller smokin' a cigar
for six months or year an never
have it go out? Well there's one
man that kin do that an he has a
smile on his face like jackass
calm his neighbor, all the hull
time.
I am not kickin' bout magazines
putin such heap of likeness in
their advertisements, cause if you
wood take them out there woodn't
be much left. I am jest like every
other old made, [ am always look

valley, green and golden
and silent. At one end Of it is a
lake, mirror for Diana when the
winds are still, at the other end is
a river, broad and sedate, and ex-
cept where it steps decorously be-
tween boulders, very drowsy.
A stick thrown into it's current
would eventually reach some sea,
but before it tasted salt water it
certainly would bud and blossom
more than once. Between the
lake and the river flows little
river. 1t is just wide enough and
just deep enough for a canoe
where it leaves the lake, but in
wandering down the valley it is
augmented by two score crystal
rivulets which come singing
through the green meadows, so
that it's mouth is no less than
forty feet from bank to bank.
Such a fascinating little river it is;
as capricious as Rosalind herself,
displaying a thousand moods and
vagaries as it glides under willow
and cottonwood or rushes helter-
SHELTER through miniature canons.
Now it sings to the open sky,
dancing and sparkling over the
rapids; now it is subdued and
serene beneath interlocking branch
es; now it swirls and eddies, like a
miniature Hellgate, making you
sit up and watch out as you drift
along in your birch shell.
There are fish in the little river,
as there are in the lake and the
big river-trout despatched with
the rainbow. In the early morn
ing and on cold days you find
them in the rapids; when the sun
is hot they rest in deep pools
shaded by cottonwoods where
they spend hours lost, apparently,
in philosophical meditation. At
such times they take but languid
interest in you, and all flies,
whether real or artificial, they
quite ignore. They eye you, not
haughtily or superciliously, but
unconcernedly. When they are
in the rifles, however, if you ten
der nudge properly, these fas-
tidious fish will occasionally con-
descend to take it. You can never
get them to rise to anything but a
grey nudge. Even in the middle
of August, gaudy flies, such as the
royal coachman," offer no temp
tation to them. Perhaps their
ancestors came over with William
Penn.
Trees and bushes grow so thickly
along the banks Of the little river
that to fish you must wade. You
stroll down stream, casting under
the banks and letting your fly fit
about in the rapids. You never
make kill. IF your object is to
fill your creel, you fish either in
the lake or else in the big river:
when you get strike in the little
river you play your troCtlet until
you tire of the make believe, and
then you carefully release him from
your hook and put him back in
the water. With a firt of his tail
he is away like bullet to his
home under the fiat stone.
The nights are wonderful in the
valley. On all sides the "moun-
tains kiss high heavens snow
crowned, isolated peaks they are,
linked one to the other by "sad-
dies With the close of day
the wind sweeps the high places,
and from peak to peak are spread
snow banners, bridges of purple
and gold encircling the horizon.
In the valley not breath stirs.
Your supper eaten, you repair to

in the heavens. In half an hour
the peaks grow white and cold
once more; the birds cease their
vesper hymns, cricket sounds
tentative chirp, and the little river
sings lullaby, soothing and plain
F, tive. The summer night has come.
The skies blaze with myriads of
stars massed together; you seem
to be in the midst Of them, and
for the first time in your life you
realize that you live in the milky
way. Then you drowsily wonder
| if all those stars are inhabited-a
subject of such magnitude that
before it is decided your pipe
goes out. Then you think how
jolly it would be if the valley
were really the forest Of Arden
with Rosalind living just around
the next bend of the river. Then
you think what a concentrated
ass the melancholy Jacques was,
and how many of his brethren are
among your acquaintance. Then
you determine to land the biggest
trout in the lake tomorrow. And
then the sand man stampedes
you to your tent where you tumble
into your blankets and drop off to
sleep thanking God for life and
freedom.
There is town in the valley,
two or three dozen wooden houses
clustered about the junction of
the big and little rivers. In the
''eary days. gold was found in the
nearby mountains, and miners
rushed there in hordes. More
''strikes" were made, and gamblers,
merchants, dance hall keepers and
all the riffraff of the frontier fol-
lowed the miners trail. For
time the ore held out, growing
rlcher as the shafts were sunk
deeper. Stock companies were
formed, shares were foated a min
ing exchange in which eseats were
worth 5000 each, was organized;
saloons, lodging houses and dance
halls were erected, and railroad
line was surveyed from the main
line fifty miles away. The place
was advertised as the "Greatest
Gold Camp on Earth" 1t was
said that the shares of the COM
pany owning the most promising
prospect were to be listed on the
London exchange. But the mines
petered out, new camp was dis
covered 200 miles to the south.
and in less than month the in
habitants moved on, leaving every
thing but the gambling parapher-
MALTA behind them. Groceries,
hardware, furniture, pool tables:
these and many other furnishings
of mining town were left just as
they stood in stores and houses;
the owners who fastened away to
the new camp thinking that in the
end it would be cheaper to buy
new outfit than to pack the old
stock over the mountains. One
man, the postmaster, was the sole
resident Of the town for two years.
He played the violin, bred fox
terriers and spent weeks over a
Montgomery Ward catalogue, the
contents of which he knew by
heart. Originally democrat, he
became in turn a mental scientist
and seventh day adventist before
his term of Office expired.
You seldom visit the town. It
is too eerie, with it's furnished and
deserted shops and houses, and it's
grass-grown streets. If you want
a can of tomatoes or a jackknife,
you 60 and take it from one of the
stores; or perhaps you canoe down
the little river and explore the
