Quiet, Provident and Anxious to Get
.Away as Soon as Possible.

Lack Of water is Tie great drawback
70 mining In the Yukon, says Leslie's
Weekly. There is little rain during
the summer and the miner must de-
pend upon the melting SHOWS to swell
the streams for his summer sluicing.
Villages have sprung up near the
creeks and living Is shade higher
than in Dawson owing to the extra
freight. Sending souvenir post cards
from these points becomes an expen-
sive remembrance, as the plain uncol-
ored ones sell for $3.50 dozen. The
picturesque swagger miner Of Cripple
Creek, Creole and Tonopah Is not
found here. The cost of getting "in"
is heavy, money is not always easily
made. and the winters are bitter cold
and depressing on account of the long
darkness. SO the miner saves his
earnings until he reaches a more con-
geneal cline. To be sure, there are
men on the creeks who drink whiskey
and the hardest kind of whiskey-'
and gambling goes on; yet, on the
whole, the Klondike miner is quiet,
providcnt individual, who devoutly
hopes that the gold fields are not
to be his permanent home.
A man who works for a company
or individual mine owner receives
from four dollars to six dollars a day
and his board Many of them do their
own cooking and live In cabins near
the creeks. Flap-jacks (pan cakes)
bacon and coffee are their chief diet
| during the winter, and in midsumper
1t requires dexterous hand to turn
the fiap-jacks before the mosquitoes
can settle on the unbaked side. Tie
old-timer who has seen the ice come
and go is known as sour dough,
and these men are the aristocrats oil
| the camp. The newcomer, or the mar
who spends his winters outside, is al
| ways known as "cheechako."
II people In the states knew how let
ters from home are appreciated by the
cabin jewellers of the Yukon they
would send some message every day
have seen miners sit in front of thei
cabins and read and reread old tat
tered letters. At some particular pas
sage their faces would light UP will
smile and the entire letter woult
be gone over again.

THE CONTROL OF

DR.. Connaway Issues Valuable
Bulletin for Free Distribution.

"The control OF hog cholera" is the
subject Of a very valuable bulletin pre-
pared by DIR. j. w. Connaway, profess
or of Comparative Medicine aud Veteri-
marian of the Missouri Agriculture Sta
ton, College of Agriculture, University
OF Missouri. This bulletin has just been
issued by the Missouri State Board OF
Agriculture, and may te bad free by
addressing Secretary George b. Ellis,
Colombia, Mo.
DR.. Connaway is Il native Missourian,
aud is today generally recog nized as the
greatest living authority on hog cholera.
lie not only knows what lie is writing
about, but he tells what he knows in
such plain, easily understood wa, that
guess at the meaning. During the last
few months more than 6,000 hogs have
been treated by the "immunizing SER
UNI" and OF this plumber 90 per cent
have been saved. The only trouble has
been that DR.. Connaway has not been
able to meet the demands for the serum
but with increased facilities he will bp
able to attend TO larger per cent of
calls.
10 his latest bulletin DR.. Connaway
has so fully described every symptom Of
hog cholera that any farmer, after read.
ing the description, will be able to read
lily recognize the disease. There are also
number of good illustrations which
serve to make palmer, if possible, the
text.

tin is the strong common sense side
Effective as is the remedy used by Dr.
Connaway, farmers are urged not TO re

OPTION BILL
PASSES HOUSE
Now Goes to the Senate in the
Washington Legislature

OLYMPIA. Feb. 1.-The local OPP
ton bill of the anti-saloon league
won a victory today in the house
when the Palmer local option bill was
turned down by vote OF SO to So.
The judiciary committee made two
reports today One was with refer
ence to the Faulkner-MeMaster bill
which was returned back to the
house without any recommendation
and the other. the Palmer bill which
came back with the recommendation
that it be passed. The committee in
its report on this bill was divided,
FIVE of the members recommending
that all Incorporated cities be exclud-
ed. and the other two members rec
ommending that only cities of the
first class be excluded.
Both houses took action with rela-
ton to the squabble over the Hanson
anti-race track bill of yesterday The
present status Of the bill is that It
has passed the house with an emerg-
ency clause. and the senate without
one and it is probable that both
houses viii have a deadlock over this
feature of the bill

DISCUSS SALOONS
AND SOCIAL EVILS
Mrs. Rae Muirhead Addresses
Large and Enthusiastic Au-
dience ut Baptist Church

Mrs. Rae Muirhead. a member OF
the Billy Sunday evangelistic party.
addressed large and enthusiastic
audience at the Baptist church yester-
day afternoon. The address was given
under the auspices OF the local w. G.
n. w.. and Mrs. Mulrhead took occas-
ion to condemn In unmeasured terms
the liquor trafac.
In speaking on this subject she laid
bare the history Of her own life. and
in glowing language drew a picture OF
the evils and ruin produced By the
liquor business a. she had observed Il
and how, after a years marriage. her
husband was ruined BY drink, and
that she was forced TO make her own
living in the world. In order to do 50
she studied and fitted herself for the
law, and upon being admitted. fol-
lowed that work for awhile, but sub
sequently entered upon detective
work, and during this work she was
given an opportunity to see and be-
come acquainted with the life Of the
underworld. While engaged in this
work she became converted, and 10
use her own language she has ever
since worked as hard for the Lord
as she had for the devil before, and
intended to keep on working for him
the remainder OF her life"
She expressed herself surprised 70
learn that Occur d'Alene had 30 many
aloons, and that the organisation had
not taken steps to put q cessation TO
the saloon business. She forcibly Inn
pressed upon those present what its
continuance meant--the ruination Of
the boys and girls--the total wreck
Ing OF the home, and that It was time
for the organization to act. She urged
the organization 10 no longer remain
in a dormant state. but to take up
the saloon question In the election In
the spring. make II an issue, and clear
the town OF an the saloons. Besides
discussing the saloon question Mrs.
Muirhead also discussed In q brief
way society in general, and the many
evils to be found in society as II exists
today.
