ALASKA AT PORTLAND FAIR.

| Comprehensive Display to Be Made
at Lewis and Clark Exposition.
| The Alaskan exhibit at the Lewis
and Clark exposition to be held in
Portland, Ore, will be more complete
and interesting than that at the ST.
Louis exposition. Governor John G..
Brady of the district of Alaska, who
is executive commissioner, is at pres
ent in Alaska arranging for additions
to be made to the exhibit which will
serve to make 1t materially more in
structive.
Alaska is paying considerable atten-
ton to the centennial inasmuch as the
enterprise is distinctly western, and the
people Of the district feel that they are
now afforded their best opportunity to
exploit the country In consequence of
this q liberal display of large and valu-
able gold nuggets, representing one OF
the principal resources OF Alaska, will
be made. The marble display at st.
Louis was awarded gold medal, but
the exhibit at Portland will be larger
and more comprehensive, and the same
may be said of the tin, coal and other
mineral displays.
OF the various exhibits there will be
one Of totem poles, characteristic of the
peculiar sculpture of the Alaskan In
dams.
The intention is to have the poles ar
ranged in a circle just south of the
Alaskan wing of the Government build
ing. An Indian dugout fifty-four feet
long will be fioated upon Guilds lake.
Aside from the mineral displays and
those Of archaeological and geological
research Alaska will make very thor
ough exhibit Of It's agricultural and
natural resources. Forestry, grazing
and fishing industries will also be rep
resented with creditable displays.
The Alaskan educational exhibit will
include displays from the various edu-
cational institutions for white people
and also from the government free
schools for Indians. Transparent pho
tographs depicting Alaskan scenes will
be shown upon the windows of the
building. The great Typographical map
of the district of Alaska, explaining the
resources and character of the various
sections, which proved a popular fea-
ture at the st. Louis exposition, will be
included In theexhibit at Portland.
Gilded blocks exemplifying the size
and value Of the annual production of
the famous Treadwell mine, represent
ing in round figures 500, 10000, will al
so be shown.

COTTON CONDITIONS IN TEXAS.
Boil Weevil Already at Work. In
Bad Condition Generally.

The Galveston Dallas News has
published cotton crop reports from
more than five hundred of its cores
pondents. The summary shows that
acreage has been reduced in Texas
1857 per cent: Indian Territory $3.50,
and Oklahoma 1881. Although pick
ing will begin in Duval county, Tex
as, this month, planting is still in
progress in many counties. On the
other hand, much land intended for
cotton may lay out because the hot,
dry weather which succeeded the long
period of excessive rainfall has baked
the ground and rendered blowing i'm
possible. While the weather has re-
Gently been favorable for cultivation,
many fields of cotton are being aban-
dOned.
Weeds are getting rank because of
the scarcity of labor now demanded
in the grain fields. Considerable dam
age has resulted from the ravages of
the web-worms. Boil weevils have in
ficted serious injury in only few
counties, but are present in all pre-
viously infested territory. Reports
of irregular and bad stands predOmi
nate The need of light rain is gen
orally reported. In the territories
the stand and conditions appear to be
somewhat better than in Texas.

Dangerous Kidney Diseases
Cured.

At the appearance of the first symp-
tom of kidney trouble, Peruna shoulJ
be taken.
This remedy strikes at once the very
root of the disease.
1t at once relieves the catarrhal kid
neys of the stagnant blood, and prevents
the escape of serum from the blood.
Peruna stimulates the kidneys to
excrete from the blood the accumulat-
ing poison, and thus prevents the con-
vulsions which are sure to follow if the
poisons are allowed to remain.
It gives great vigor to the hearts
action and digestive system, both of
which are apt to fail rapidly in this
disease.
Peruna cures catarrh of the kidneys
simply because it cures catarrh wher-
ever located.

Plea For the SIX Hat.

A plea for the silk hat Is made by the
London Tailor and Cutter. Why is 1t
that the silk hat, it asks, Is not worn
more generally? 1t is surely not be
cause it is an expensive luxury, for a
silk will easily outwear two felts, es-
pecially as the shapes in silks vary
only slightly season by season and If
properly cared for and regularly ironed
will always have that glossy appear
ance that places the hall mark on a
well dressed man. A silk hat gives a
tone and character that is not in evil
dence in any other headgear.

From the Albany Herald.
Oyer in Terrell county the first cot

scented to The Dawson News by hust-
ling farmer. This would seem to in
dictate that early cotton is up and do

waltz to market with the first bale, as
usual Deal Jackson, the colored
farmer who, season after season, has
been bringing the first bale ginned in
the entire southeast to Albany for the
past seven or eight years, is laying

is one of the comparatively few in the
country that are reported free of
grass, and there is little cause for
doubt that he will again sustain his
