cessfully accomplished a journey
which many an explorer would be
proud of.
Seller was stationed at Fullerton, on
the west coast of Hudson bay. He
heard from natives that the Scotch
ship Ernest William had put in further
north and intended to trade with the
natives. He decided at once that it
was his duty to see that the ship and
captain paid the dues required by the
government regulations.
Accompanied by interpreter Ford
and an Eskimo guide Seller set out on
his long trip, which occupied two
months. Intensely cold weather was
encountered and many billiards., but
the only casualty was the death of one
dss of their team of ten.
For two days both men and dogs
were short of rations and had they not
opportunity fallen in with a party OF
natives would have been in desperate
straits. For part of the journey the
food had to be eaten frozen and raw,
as alcohol and wood gave out.
The courageous policeman kept a
diary from which these extracts are
taken:

Another bad storm. Sent Ford and
Eskimo out to look for natives. They
found some who told them that the
place where the ship was is called
Melachuseetuck, the place where
ghosts chase women"
At the end of two months the little
party reached "the place where ghosts
chase women" and received a hearty
Scotch welcome from the captain of
the ship, who paid his government
dues and QUILTED the corporal for his
return journey.
Seller receives $3.50 a day.

Johnston. of Birmingham.
Gov. Johnston is Ga years old, has a
fine war record and has always taken
lively interest in confederate af-

WHEN THE FISH HURDLE.
Man Wanted to Be Far Away From
the Danger Spot.

OF course at this season the usual
run of fish stories" are going the
rounds. But one relating to the
hurdling prowess of bass and trout,
which was told in all earnestness the
other night, takes first prize.
Fish always go up stream in the
springtime," said the fisherman, "and
scarcely anything will keep the bass
and trout from getting near the head
waters. 1 have known these two
species to jump over a dam eight to
ten feet high and continue their up
stream journey"
What was that you said?" re-
marked friend, who also claims to
be somewhat of an angler. The man
repeated his assertion that he had
seen fish Jump over dams eight to ten
feet high, and as there was no one
present to deny the hurdling abilities
of the fish, the only challenge to his
remarkable statement was a laugh by
all hands.
well, trust will never be on the
top of Niagara falls when one of those
hurdling fish you speak of comes fly
ing through the air and hits me in the
eye," remarked the friend. That
broke up the fish stories for that even
ing, but the man still insists that
ten-foot dam can be hurdled by either
q bass or trout.

1BLAMES SPIES OF TURKEY
ARMENIAN PRIEST DENIES KNOW
ING ABOUT RkAcKMAIL.
Former Treasurer of Hunchakist Ex-
amined by New York Authori-
ties and Later Arrested.

New York, July 27.-Rev. Levont
Martogessian, once treasurer of the
Hunchakist, the Armenian society
which outsiders say has fallen from
it's high estate of patriotism to the
practice of blackmail, gave Friday a
new twist to the district attorneys
investigation of the organization.
The priest had been subpoenaed to
tell what he knew. This was to the
effect that the present agitation, os-
tensibly directed by reputable Armeni-
ans against band of assassins, was
in fact inspired by the Turkish gov
eminent whose hired spies systemat-
Armenians in this country. The pas
tor of the Armenian Apostolic church
had, he admitted, formerly been a
member and the treasurer of the
Hunchakist, but some time ago with
drew. He knew nothing of the MUIR
der of the rug merchant, Tavshanjian,
who had refused to pay $4,000 for his
life, and If extortion had been prac-
ticed he knew nothing of it. On the
contrary, he told the district attorney
that he, himself, was the object of per-
secution on the part of the Turkish
government. Pressed to throw, if pos
sible, light upon the workings of the
conspirators, the priest replied:
You are rich and powerful ma
ton, and you can find out more than
I cam
The priest brought with him let
ter, not signed, in which threat to
take his life was made. He turned it
over to the district attorney.
New York, July 30.-Father Levont

whose name has been associated with
the Hunchakist society, was arrested

Medieval Leisure.

The women of the sixteenth century
and earlier times had easier lives
than those of our generation. To be
sure, there are hundred labor-saving
devices to-day which were unknown to
them. But in at least two important
respects they had the advantage over
their descendants. They waged no
conflict against dirt, such as we carry
on from morning till night. The
Elizabethan had no prejudice against
garbage in his front yard, vermin in
his bedroom, decaying rushes on the
floor of his banquet hall, or soiled
lace on his sleeves. The strength of
arm and spirit which now goes to
keeping clean was left to the medieval
lady for other tasks. Moreover, al.
though her clothing was gorgeous
rich with embroidery and lace and
heavy with jewels-it was not subject
to rapid changes of fashion. The cut
of a sleeve or the hang of skirt was
settled for five years rather than for
five months. Life was free then from
the modern terror of looking like a
last years ragbag." If cleanliness and
fashion should suddenly go out OF
business, says Youths Companion,
what an air of leisure would spread
over the world feminine, until some
other tyrants should arise to take the
place of those dethroned!

A Dangerous Pest.
HaiNN.

It sometimes happens in human life
that mail who has lived for years in
peaceable If not amicable relations
with his neighbors is suddenly re-
vealed as great criminal, whose pres
ence has been constant menace to all
about him, and whose sins include
tragedies which had long been mys.
teries. Some such revelation as this
has been made about the common do
nestle rat, not suddenly, perhaps, but
with slow and certain piling up Of
evidence, until now the biological sur
vey of the United States government
has indicted the sly gray criminal in
q special pamphlet The first foreign
rat to reach these shores was the Eu-
ropean black rat, which came over
nearly 800 years ago. The common
rat of to-day is the brown or Norway
rat. He reached America about 1775,
and has multiplied so rapidly that he
has almost entirely driven out his
black predecessor. There is also a
third species, known as the roof, or
Alexandrian rat of Egypt. This rat is
a good sailor, and so is found mostly
in seacoast cities. The brown rat is
pronounced to be the worst NAM
malian pest in existence. No Stats
tics are available for America, but in
Denmark this rat is estimated to
work 100000 worth of destruction
every year; and in the United States
one rat to every horse, cow, sheep and
hog-a conservative estimate-would
do $100,000,O00 worth of damage in a
year. Rats destroy eggs and young
poultry, pigeons, game birds and song
birds. In cities they enter stores and
warehouses, and destroy laces, car
pets, silks and woolens. They gnaw
through lead pipe, and so flood build.

1t was also freely predicted that in
the event of Haywood's acquittal the
state would abandon the prosecution
of his associates, Charles H. Meyer,
the president of the federation, and
George A. Pettibone, of Denver.
Statements from counsel and from
Gov. Gooding issued Sunday dispel
this view of the situation.
Others Will Be Tried.
Gov. Gooding said:
"The verdict is a great surprise to
me, and l believe to all citizens of
Idaho who have heard or read the
evidence in the case.
Il have done my duty. l have no
regret as to any action 1 have taken,
and my conscience is clear. AS long
as God gives me strength I shall con-

"The state will continue vigorous
prosecution of Meyer and Pettibone
and Adams and of Simpkins when ap-
pretended. There will be neither hes

divided eight to four and then seemed
deadlocked at ten to two, finally came
to an agreement shortly after the
first faint streaks of the coming day

bailiff who had kept an all night vigil

Kankakee, ILL.,, July 27.-Thousands
of persons attending the ninth day
session of the novena of the shrine of
st. Anne Friday saw several persons
arise in st. Joseph's church and an
nounce that they had been healed of
infirmities.
Miss Mary Pierce, IS years old, of
Delphi, Ind, said that she had been
afflicted with paralysis for four years,
during which time she had been un-
able to walk. She left the church
without support. Miss Daisy Lamond,
of Kankakee, almost blind for 80
years, said she was able to read with
out glasses at the close of the nine
days of prayer.
George Neary, of Lost Nation, Ia,

from childhood. They walked from

S Pe-ru-L1a Useful
for Catarrh?

Should a List Of the ingredients Of Pc
runa be submitted to any medical ex-
pert, of whatever school OF nationality,
he would be obliged to admit without
reserve that each one Of them was ofun-
doubted value in chronic catarrhal dis
eases, and had stood the test of many
years experience in the treatment Of
such diseases. THERE CAN BE NO
DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHAT
EVER. Peruna is composed ofthe most
efacacious and universally used herbal
remedies for catarrh. Every ingredient
OF Peruna has reputation of its own
in the cure of some phase of catarrh.
Peruna brings to the home the COM
BINED KNOWLEDGE OF SEVERAL
SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE in the treat
ment Of catarrhal diseases; brings to
the home the scientific skill and knowl-
edge ofthe modern pharmacist; and last
butnotleast, brings to the home the vast
and varied experience Of DR.. Hartman,
intheuseofcatarrh remedies, and in the
treatment Of catarrhal diseases.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is dis
ease which is very prevalent Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one of chronic
catarrh. It may be Of the nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the ma
ture Of the disease. The only trouble
is the remedy. This doctor has tried to
cure them. That doctor has tried to
prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BRING ANY RELIEF.
DR.. Hartman's idea is that catarrh
remedy can be made on a large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be made
honestly, of the purest drugs and of
the strictest uniformity. His idea is
that this remedy can besupplied direct
lyto the people, and no more be charged
for it than is necessary for the
handling ofit.
No other household remedy so uni
versally advertised carries upon the
label the principal active constituents,
showing that Peruna invites the full

FOURTEEN PERISH IN FIRE.
Explosion and Blaze In New York
Tenement House.

killed and score or more injured,

at 222 Christie street, were asleep
when an explosion occurred in store
in the basement of the structure
Within a minute the sleepers, routed
from their slumbers by the detona-

clothes for the exits.
Flames quickly spread through the
building, choking the frenzied occu-
pants and making them only the more
frantic to reach the street. The vic
