Alaska is a land of adventure

Brumbaugh, gold miner.
He sat in the cafe of Philadel-
phia hotel. He was admirably
dressed i'll expensive and fashion
able clothes. In Alaska he had
struck it rich, one claim, for
Instance, bought for 500, having
already yielded S25O,O0O in gold.
Many queer things have hap
pened in Alaska, said Mr.. Brum-
baugh, smiling. Many wretched
things. Sometimes it has been
necessary to break sad news to
mothers at home. And sometimes
this news has been broken with
wonderful skill.
An Alaskan called OIL a woman
in New Hampshire to tell her of
her sons death in the Klondike.
Yes, lady, he said to the
weeping mother. wuz with him

Deserted Ireland.

Since the census Of 1900 was
taken nearly 100000 Irish emil
grants have settled in the United
States, the year ended with July,
1905, showing a larger number
than any year since 1895. A new
impetus has been given to Irish
immigration within the last two
years, turn which is quite per-
picking to those native Irish
societies which have been unsuc-
cessfully attempting to stop the
great national leak for so many
years. The unrest among the
young native Irish element is still
wonderfully strong. An American
traveller in Ireland is as much i'm
pressed with this fact as he is with
anything else in that country of
remarkable things. Everywhere
he sees and hears of wholesale
departures for the United States.
Even in the remotest rural hamlets
the old people can be heard lamen-
ting some recent exodus of the most
promising young boys and girls.
Almost every man or woman that
a traveller meets and talks with III
Ireland has a number of brothers
or sisters or very near relatives
who have recently left for the
United States. Emigration agen-
cies exist in every part of the
island. Every village has steam
ship agent, to whose advantage it
is to use eveIy influence the young
men and women to emigrate. |
Since their pay must come from
the steamship tickets which they |
sell, the agents take good care to
see that many of them are disposed |
of in the course of a year. The
flaming posters which they faunt
in the faces of the young people |
who are already FESTIVE and |
overanXious to go, offering the
cheapest transportation and, to
their minds, fabulous wages on the
other side of the Atlantic, prove
to the average Irish |
villager. During the last summer
whole villages in Cavan, Galway |
and Donegal have been depopulat-
ed, and vast countrysides in Mayo
and Roscommon have been strip
ped of the remnants of the oldtime
armies of farm laborers.-The

SALOON MAN PUTS
THUG To FLIGHT.
By Quick Display of Gun
G.. P. Miller Routs Man
Who Draws a Bludgeon
THEN GIVES CHASE

Confronted by revolver In the
hands of his intended victim, a thug
who made a daring attempt 10 roD
saloon at the corner of F1rst avenue
and street yesterday morning was
put to flight and escaped after an eA-
citing chase.
George p. Miller, who lives at Fourth
avenue and b street, was behind tne
bar of the saloon when a tall man en-
tered and begged a drink. He COM
planned of feeling unwen and when
Miller consented to give him the drink
he asked for a special brand OF whAsk!
kept ON a shelf ON the back bar.
Miller turned around and was reacn-
ing for the whisky when he happened
to cast a glance over his shoulder. ne
detected the stranger in the act or
drawing a weapon from under his coat
and realized that he would have to act
quickly if he was to escape attack
I've forgotten that / have some OF
this whisky opened under the bar, ne
said, passing down as though to reacn
it When he came abreast OF the
cash register he snatched up revolver
secreted behind it and wheeled quickly
IF you move I'll shoot he SAID 70
the stranger The man protested that
the bartender was mistaken in him
and when commanded to throw back his
coat he did so without displaying any
weapon He kept backing toward the
door and in moment was running
swiftly down the street, with Miller at
his heels. He disappeared around the
corner of Second avenue, where the
bartender lost track of him.
When Miller returned to the saloon
he found the stock of a riding whip,
loaded with lead to add to its effective
ness as an implement of attack, lying
on the sawdust in front of the counter.
The sawdust had deadened the noise OF
this bludgen when the man dropped
it from his coat, and Miller in the ex-
citement of the moment had over
! looked it.
Miller described the man as being
/ fully six feet in height, with heavy
/ black mustache. He wore dark clothes
a black alpine hat, a blue flannel shirt
and ragged shoes.
The police believe he is a member
of the band OF yeggmen that recently
came from the north.

BOTH CANDIDATES
MAKE SPEECHES.
Gillett and Langdon Meet
at San Bernardino, and
q. Latter Receives Frost
ADDRESS BY KNIGHT
81 Martir1 Madsen.

SAN BERNARDINo. Oct. 12.-Gilett
and Langdon were within three blocks
of each other when the test came to-
night and while two thousand Repub-
licans were shouting themselves hoarse
at the Broadway Theater, the Inde-
pendence League fell to a dreary mono
tone of despair at the pavilion.
Everybody is sorry for Langdon, for
would not almost any candidate lose
heart when only one hundred and fifty
or so would come to hear him in one
of the great cities of the southland?
The Republicans have a decided up
per hand in San Bernardino and the
majority Gillett will receive in the
county is estimated at twelve hundred.
There was no end of cheering for Gill
lett and Knight when they addressed
the meeting tonight and every demon
stration was made of the popularity Of
Gillett's candidacy.
Langdon and Gillett were guests at
the same hotel and met for the first
time in the dining
The Langdon party planned coup
to begin the noise first. Gillett and
his friends quietly looked on from the
lobby until the Langdonites had over
done the situation and had driven
away.
But no empty hall greeted the Re-
publican standard bearer when he
strolled over to the theater shortly
after s o'clock. wave of applause,
full of enthusiastic spirit, swept over
the audience as he took his seat on
the stage. He told the assemblage
that no one had amy strings" on him,
that he had not made a single promise
OF any sort in connection with his can
didacy. He spoke of the labor ques-
tion and made answer and gave chal-
lenge to those who are secretly cir
culating the report, he said, among the
labor unions that he is to be regarded
by them as an enemy.
Knight followed the standard bearer
with one of his old-time speeches and
the crowd was thrilled by voice and
wit.
"Gillett was nominated in spite OF
William E. Herrin, If you want TO
know the facts OF the case he said
4 If George c. Pardee will deny that he
went to Herrin and had an interview
with him about the nomination / will
make it a question of veracity between
myself and the Governor.
AT Santa Cruz. we of Humboldt
were in a position to throw Ruef and
his vote where II belongs, and we re-
fused to have anything to do with
/ him or any other boss. Gillett was
nominated Independently of the bosses
and his record reads clear as day"
1t was a stirring meeting and the
whole Orange Belt city shook with the
closing cheers given for Gillett, knight
and the Republican. ticket

Nicholas Stafford. one of the notori-
Gus crooks that Police Judge Mogan
released the other day. was arrested
in company with eight hard looking
characters in a refugee. camp at the
foot of Van Ness avenue last night.
The roundup was made by Detectives
Evatt and Nelson at the request of
Captain Duke. The police have been
on the lookout fer Stafford since his
release They evidently do not think
much of Mogan's Judgment in turn
ing him loose
All the men arrested are well known
to the police. Some of them are ex-
convicts, while the others have been
under arrest for various offenses
During the raid the detectives at
once recognized Stafford as the man re-
leased by Mogan. Instead of leaving
town, Stafford has oeen living in the
camp with the other suspicious char

men were camped there for any good

Evidence.

much for style as for disguises.
SUSPECTS ANSWER DESCRIPTION.
The two men were bundled out of
bed and ordered to dress. AS soon as
they had on their street clothes II was
apparent that both of the men an
-swered In almost every particular the
description Of the bank robbers which
has been sent forth by Chief of Police
Dinan.
The Official description of the thugs
who robbed the Golden Gate Bank is
as follows;
No. Age So to 40 years. looks like
an Italian, height about feet inches
weight about 10 pounds; dark com
plexion, black mustache; wore dark
suit and soft black hat; ...,,.
about feet 10 inches. weight ABOUT t
lao pounds: slender build, smootn race,
light complexion; fairly well dressed N
dark coat and vest, striped pants anu
q soft brown hat.
Meranda answers perfectly TO the de-
scription of the darker man. while Her
bert answers to the description OF the
taller and fairer man, with the excep-
ton that his hair is shade darker
than given in the official description.
MOTHERS DAMAGING EVIDENCE.
The mother of Herbert gives more
damaging testimony against her son
than any one. She admits that he does
not work: that he is a morphine neno-
that he always has money, and that sne
acted as lookout 10 warn her son OF
the presence of the police. Meranda Is
known TO the police and Is credlted
with being fully able to commit any or
the crimes which have taken place In
the city during the last six months
The place where the men were ar
rested is hut two blocks from the scene
Of the Pftzner robbery. Policeman
Jordan five weeks ago reported to po-
lice headquarters that he had seen two
messenger boys loitering around Phtz-
ner's place, and he believed at that time
