LOST IN WILD
ALASKAN FOREST
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE OF CHI
CAGoAN AND COMPANION.
LIVED ON ROOTS OF PLANTS
The Two Men Pass Four Days in Will
derness Before They Discover
Their Bearings and Return
to Civilization.

Laporte, Ind.-Paul II. Seymour, of
Chicago, formerly of this city, nation
al president of the Young Peoples
SwedenBorgian New Jerusalem)
Church of America, is not dead, in
spite of reports to the contrary. Word
was received the other day that he
was alive after passing through almost
unparalleled hardships in the Klon-
dixie country For four days he and
companion subsisted on roots of plants
and many times despaired of ever
again seeing civilization.
Mr.. Seymour was sent out last
spring by a dredging company at the
head of large party. He established
his camp on Willow creek, tributary
of the Hootalinqua, many hundred
miles north of Dawson City. One Sat
urday night it became necessary to
return to Dawson, and with one COM
panion Mr.. Seymour started to walk
from Willow creek to "Hundred-Mile"
cabin, where they were to take the
steamer down the HootaliQua. Had
they made the trip by water the dis
tance would have been 200 miles, but
thinking to take short cut, the pair
started to tramp over the mountains, a
distance of 25 miles through almost vir-
gin wilderness. Expecting to make the
trip in one day, they took no blankets
and provisions enough for only two
meals.
The first Is miles were made in safe
ty, and then the men became hopelessly
lost and for four days wandered in the
woods. Finally they found a creek, and,
believing it would prove tributary of
the Hootalinqua, decided to float down
it. A raft was made of trees which they
burned down, and which they fastened
together with willow boughs On this
they set out. They had not gone far,

LIFE AMONG THE SWEDES.
There Is Big Difference in the Gus
toms of America and Those
of Sweden.

A barber will shave you for six cents
but you will have to wash your own
face and comb your own hair
Everybody trusts you and you are
expected to trust everybody. This
works well almost invariably, says
Stockholm letter in the Minneapolis
Journal.
You never have a dispute with the
cabman over the fare. A taXameter
measures the distance you travel and
shows what you owe at any minute.
You get bill every day at the hotel.
This permits you to correct any mis-
takes at once.
The hotel clerk wears a gorgeous
uniform, is called porter and is graf
ified for a 25-cent tip at any time.
Women shine your shoes, shave you,
cut your hair and even give you a
bath-unless you rebel Men take off
their hats when they meet men ac-
quaintances and bow low.
Every third man has some kind of
a uniform on.
Policemen salute the street car con-
ductors and are saluted by them.
Everybody is excessively polite to
every one else.
A servant who brings you something
says 80 good" You say tack"
(thanks).
You take off your hat when you en-
ter shop and return the shopman's
low bow.
They don't believe in department
stores. Every merchant sticks to his

arc small. Ten ore (21a cents) is the
ordinary tip to a cabman or porter
To waiter you give ten per cent of
your bill.
The newspapers are numerous and
widely read, but not at all up to Amer
lean ideas. They are often very un-
wieldy in size. A Stockholm newspa-

of advertising, simply makes his pages
longer, instead of more numerous.
They use no half-tone illustrations and
pen-and-ink drawings of antique exc

Cure to Stav Cured.

Wapello, Iowa, Sept. 1lth, (SpeciaD.-
One of the most remarkable cures ever
recorded in Louisa County is that of Mrs
Minnie Hart of this place. Mrs Hart was
in bed for eight months, and when she
was able to sit up she was all drawn up
on one side, and could not walk across
the room. .Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her.
Speaking of her cure Mrs. Hart says:
Yes, Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me
after l was in bed for eight months, and |
know the cure was complete, for that was
three years ago, and have not been
down since. In four weeks from the time
my garden. Nobody can know how
thankful am to be cured or how much l
feel | owe to Dodd's Kidney Pills"

neys. Cure the Kidneys with Dodd's

FORTUNE FOR MATTERS.

Norwalk Men Heirs to Osborn Millions.
 It has just been ascertained that the Osborns, of East Norwalk, are the di- rect and practically the only heirs of an estate of between one and two mill lions of dollars, says the Norwalk Hour. This vast estate was left by half brother of the late Solomon Enos Osborn, who ran away many years ago and went to Oregon, where he amassed a vast fortune. He died twenty-four years ago and at the expiration of twenty-five years the fortune will re-
 vert to the state. A lawyer and de- tective have been in town for some time on the matter, and with the afti-
 davits and photographs of the de-
 ceased and the heirs, it is proposed to prove the claim of the heirs to the Ore gon court and claim the estate before
 it reverts to the statesa
 This vast fortune, as large and twice as tangible as the famous Allen inher- itance which has been exciting the country, has remained for twenty-four
 years unclaimed in the Oregon probate | courts. The first that the relatives in
 this place knew of the money was when the lawyer approached them about three weeks since.
 Solomon Enos Osborn, who died
 few years since, at his home in East avenue, came to Norwalk many years ago from North Salem, this state. He 1 had three brothers, Clark, Horace and
 Lewis, and a half brother, James. All
 of these are now dead and the children l of the four members of the family will
 get their fathers share of the estate. The children of s. E. Osborn are Ru- | fus R. Osborn, the we'll known natter,
 who resides at 25 Seaview avenue; S.
 Wallace Osborn, also in the hating
 business who resides at 57 Osborn ave-
 nue, and Mrs. Lewis W. Doty, of 55 Os-
 born avenue. As James died without
 leaving any family of his own, the es-
 tate will go equally to thesfamilies of l the other four brothers, or about a
 third of a million dollars for each fam l fly.

Professor Harrington is a member of the Psi Upsilon fraternity and has many strong friends among the alumni who would be very glad to see him re- ceive the appointment The Harring- tons are also well-known in this city and own house on High street.

Curial, of Anoka, Minn,, formerly Elizabeth Treat, (daughter of the late Deacon Atwater Treat, a prominent and well-known cit izen of New Haven), is now visiting friends in the east. She says she has an autograph album which she prizes very highly and it is of considerable interest now, for it contains the name of every member of General Joseph Hawley's Company "A, First Connect icut Volunteers, from captain, down. She also has some portraits of the men given her at the time. It came about in this waya When Miss Elizabeth Treat was a young girl, Captain flaw ley's company was encamped in Alum nj Hall, Yale college, early in the spring of 1861, and drilled on the cam pus just opposite Deacon Treats resi- dence, and while there. was, of course, visited by hundreds of people.
 Miss Treat conceived the idea of ob- taining the autographs of the company. and went to the captain one day and modestly requested permission, which was readily granted, he,,. the captain, assisting her and signing his4own name in her album first.

ADDITION TO GAYLORD FARM.

New Haven Man Makes Gift of Funds
 to Erect Sleeping Barracks for Pa
 tients. 2i< s. .
 One of the most welcome of the an- nouncements made at the annual meet ing of the New Haven County Anti Tuberculosis association, Wednesday, was that s. w. Hart, of this city, had promised the association funds for the erection of a sleeping barracks for the use of patients. As is indicated by the reports of the meeting of the associa- ton, the greatest need of the sanitori- um which has been erected at Walling- ford is more extensive sleeping quar-s ters to accommodate the patients This need will be met in part by the gift of MT, Hart. It will be patterned after the similar structures erected at the sanatorium in Liberty, N. ", and. will contain accommodations for eight pa tients. Its location has already been decided upon as toward the east of the sanatorium buildings on the Gaylord farm. The cost is not settled, but will be at least twenty-five hundred dollars. Work on the construction of the bar racks will be begun at once and it is planned to have 1t ready for the use of patients before fall.
 MT. Hart, who is the proprietor of the Hart Dormitory, and a prominent real estate dealer and local business man, has been prominent in the work of the association since its inception, and has aided it in various ways. His present gift is, however, his largest donation toward the tuberculosis srusade.
