MIL WAUKEEAN'S
POCKET OF GOLD
He Starts in Search of Rich Field
Found by an Indian in
North.

Special to The Journal.
Tacoma, Wash, June 2.-Thru the
laundering of an Indian guide, James
M. Shelf of Milwaukee, a former AUS
tralian miner, secured knowledge Of
a rich pocket of gold on Great Slave
lake, Northwest Territory.
Being unsuccessful in Alaska,
Shelf went thru the Northwest Ter
ritory on hunting expedition. One
morning his Indian guide reached
camp with his pocket full Of nuggets,
Of the value of which he had no con
ception. Shelf closely questioned him
regarding the location Of the find, and
had the Indian draw a rough map Of
the exact spot. d
Loading their supplies in a dugout,
they started out on the Great Slave
lake. Within half a mile Of the shore
their boat capsized in a squall. The
Indian was drowned and Shelf made
land alone. Having only a revolver
and a knife left, he was unable to
continue the search and started home.
In Chicago he. raised money to re-
turn to the rich gold field. To-day he
sailed for Nome with good outfit
intending to reach the Great Slave
lake by the way Of the Mackenzie river
He is certain he will rediscover the
Indians gold field.

Ills entire report 10 conglomerationo OF
Misrepresentation and falsehoods, and
no one knows 1t better than the present
auditor, Mr. Iverson. reiterate what has
been said many times before-that settle
ments were made in every instance IN
the best interests Of the state and were
made only. after consultation with the
state auditor and his deputy. During the
eight years I was stumpage clerk, l am
willing to 60 on record as saying that
there was no favoritism shown any tres
passer by Mr.. Dunn and every effort was
made to collect every dollar obtatnable Tor
the state.
Settlements for Trespass.
Mr.. Johnson's statement that the av-
erage amount per thousand feet obtained
for stumpage trespass was $2.94 is abso-
lutely untrue, and It's falsity can be cas-
lily ascertained from the records. His
statement that only $146,00 trespass was
collected by Mr.. Dunn Is equally untrue.
There is not one statement that he
makes that cannot be controverted by
| the records Of the state auditors office.
To show how unfair he Is, he quotes
the average price obtained for stumpage
during Mr.. Dunn's term of office, and
then the average for trespass, and admit
ting for the sake Of argument that his
49,
forgets to state that four-fifths of the
trespass was committed when the aver
age selling price of timber was from
$1.S1 to 1921, while the average price for
, 1900 was $5.49 per thousand feet; in 1901
1854, and In 1902, $3.50, and a much
r larger amount of timber was sold at the
three later sales than at any of the -four
preceding sales.
, StumDaGe Has Appreciated.
The price obtained for timber trespass
by Mr.. Dunn will more than reach thu
, average price obtained by Mr.. Iverson 1
the increased value Of the stumpage Il
taken into consideration. I might als'
state, in relation to the charge made b.
Johnson about the permits not being re
corded and the absence Of bark marks
that Mr.. Iverson, the present state audi
? tor, has issued over hundred permit
t without bark marks or the permits beinl
q, recorded, but of course Mr.. Iverson is no
. candidate for governor.
The best evidence in the world that tn
+ stumpage department was conducted O.

HEALTH IN THE PINE TREE.

EnCom0lOBistS ana BaTueneTS nave known for many years that the resin
 ous oils obtained from the pine. the fir and other coniferous trees. are certain death to many of the lower forms of l life. No other known preparation will
 so quickly and permanently extermin- ate plant lice, red spider and similar | horticultural pests, as fir-tree oil. At | the same time 1t Is not the least bit i'm furious to the leaves, or lungs. of the
 affected plants, but on the contrary
 seems to strengthen the foliage and | make 1t healthier.
 In 1882 the startling discovery was | made that tuberculosis, or consumption, | was caused by a microbe, or minute living organism. Subsequent research | by eminent scientists proved that kim i dred diseases. like croup. whooping cough, diphtheria, pneumonia, la | grippe. etc. were also each due to the | ravages of a specific microbe. These l discoveries started prominent and learned American physician to think | ing. Familiar with the annihilating effect of resinous oils on low animal organisms, he made a series of costly and extended experiments. to determine if they were not equally destructive to the pulmonary microbes. In 1894 he was rewarded by absolute proof that a certain pharmaceutical preparation Of Pine-Tree-Tar would destroy these mi- crobes. He found. besides. from tests made in his own practice that, as the fir tree oil instead of injuring, benefits the foliage, or plant lungs to which it is applied. so his discovery. instead O. irritating the mucous membrane of hu- man lungs and bronchial tubes, like other pulmonary remedies, aIlays in- fiammation and has a healing and strengthening effect.
 The results obtained with his own patients were so wonderful and so uni formly successful that he decided to in- troduce the new specific to the general public, and 1t is now known every where and prescribed daily by thous- ands of the most skiilful medical prac- titioners in the world.
 Such, in brief. is the history of pr. Bells Pine-Tar- Honey a scientific com bination of the purest and freshest drugs and essences with pure pine-tree tar, obtained by pr. Bells own formula, and the very choicest strained honey. It contains no opiate of any description and is absolutely a vegetable product There is no cough so bad 1t will not help 1t; no lungs so weak it will not strengthen them; no case of asthma or bronchitis so severe it will not relieve and eventually cure 1t. By killing the microbes it cures every disease affect- ing the pulmonary organs, beginning with croup and whooping cough and ending with consumption.
 The proof of It's miraculous efficacy Is found in the fact that, during the year 1903. under an absolute guarantee. over 3,000.000 bottles were sold, with but i've requests that the money pald be refunded. This means only one dis satisfied customer out of 500, 900.
 Dr. Bells Pine-Tar Honey is ore. pared only by the E. E. Sutherland Medicinue O.. of Paducah. Ky. It is sold by all druggists the world over.

BRILLIANT NEW FEATURES.
Some of the Attractions of Circus to Be
 Here October 17.

To slightly change an old metaphor, the management of the Great Fore paugh and Sells Borthers United Shows do not seem to have let the sawdust hamper their feet in hustling to pro- cure the newest and most attractive of genuine arenic features.
 For instance, On the Way to the Grand Prix Race. Paris Is the title under which La Famille Lecusson in- troduce those original combined four in-hand and park brake bareback and acrobatic performances which are claimed to be the only entirely new equestrian feats introduced in the cir GUS ring for at least fifty years, and which for continuous months attracted enormous attendance and unbounded applause in critical Paris, France. whence they come to now make their first appearance in this country.
 Hungary contributes The Szarvasi Frenz Troupe of nine male and female Magyar opponents of wild acrobatic in- novations, emotional dances and mys- tic melodies peculiar to race whose origin is lost in the dim resources of the past Their performances are said to be now for the first time to be seen outside of their native land.
 Mons. Hubert also comes from Eu- rope to astonish us with what may well be termed prodigous acts of strength and dexterity. In these. after exceed ingly difficult feats of juggling. hold ing a sulky high in air by the thills. he leaps with 1t from the ground to the back of his running horse, and also has the face to balance a park cart on his chin.
 To the forty-odd clowns who make things so laughably lively under the big top have been added the four male and female Martineks, who enjoy the reputation of being the most tickling of foreign fun-makers. Then there will be forthcoming the Eddy Family, who need no eulogistic introfuction either at home or abroad. presenting for the first time their new and orig inal thrilling and graceful aerial stage acrobatic act All of which are in the program of a hundred acts to be seen here on October 17.
