 The electric lights were out on the Bullion circuit for three days last week and the electrician, have been working day and night to get them in working order. They succeeded Monday after noon in starting up the plant.
 The Treadwell Company is having installed d new concentrator, which is made by the Deister Concentrator Co.,, of Fort Wayne, Ind, and will give it a trial at the Mexican mill. The instala. tion is in charge of Mr. E Deister, a member of the firm.
 The carpenters at Treadwell are very busy these days. They are construct ing the new electric light plant, the nat atorium, new waiting room for the men, at meal times, at the Treadwell boarding house, new house for Fred Laube and one for Russell Waylaud.
 There have been several changes in the staff at the Mexican mine recently. John Richards, who was assistant fore. man, has been promoted to the position of foreman, in place of Wm.

McElroy was nicely rendered and the moving pictures brought roars of laugh ter from the large crowd.
 One of the oldest landmarks at Treadwell is being torn down this week. It is the old bunk house. Every board in the building could tell lively story if they could speak, and many of the old timers look with regret at the pass ing away of the first home they ever knew in Alaska. It will be replaced by a large store house in which will be stored the extra goods needed by the store.

Some medical authorities say that 1t is possible for person to suffer, from Rheumatism without having uric acid in the blood.
 But we never heard it stated that person could have uric acid in the blood and be free from Rheumatism
 Uric acid develops when, the Kidneys Bladder and Liver fail to do their duty and do not properly filter the blood removing all waste products and i'm purities. When these organs, refuse to do their work you will find NyaIS Stone Root Compound a good correc' tive remedy.

LOST GRACE OF THE CLIPPER.
Rake Gone From the Mast and Rat.
lines From the Rigging.

IN general appearance sea craft are
much changed 1T must be admitted in
some respects not for tho better,
says Casters Magazine. Cargo
steamers particularly have degenerat.
cd I'm outward FORM They are clum-
sier, more angular, less graceful than
formerly.
one looks In vain for the clipper
bows, rakish masts and trim sails
OF the early traders. The changes
which eliminated in the tramp OF to
day came gradually.
First the masts, already reduced
In number, size and Importance by
the supersession OF steam over sail
power, were stripped OF yards and
square sails and later the ttysail5
in some steamers not even n stay
sail being carried.
Now, alas for sentiment! mast5 are
frequently fitted without rake, and
gawky a ship so fitted looks along
side those OF the older style But
raked mast is a bad derrick post,
and efficiency first, appearance last,
is the present rule.
Even standing rigging, with its
convenient ratlines, beloved OF the
youthful mariner, Is disappearing In
favor Of the widely spaced guy ropes,
prosaic iron ladder rlveted to the
mast giving access to the masthead.
In many vessels too forests of der
rick posts stand up awkwardly from
the deck, making with derricks and
running gear when seen on the sky
line a most extraordinary show, the
ships looking for all the world like
floating factories.
Outward appearance apart, how
ever, change OF design has always
been In the direction OF simplihcatlon
Of parts, perfection Of detail and gen
eral Improvement. Thus the standard
of comfort has been raised FOrecas-
ties are not the poky holes they once

years ago there was little science.
and much rule OF thumb practised
in the designing Offices OF the ship
yards. Not unfrequently the model
was made TO please the eye and the
line plans afterward drawn from It.
40 one can defend this practice. al
though the graceful forms of the clip
pers OF that day were thus evolved.
Before the Daphne disaster few
private firms went the length OF
making stability Investigations. What
were metacentres and centres OF
gravity? Vessels had been built
since the Ark with little regard to
such matters, and could still be built,
80 the clipper experts reasoned.
Then came the Daphne accident and
changed all this. Stability became
everything.

Ambassador Reid Makes REQUEST.

Washington, Nov. 3d. Whitelaw
Reid, American ambassador at Lon
don, has been instructed by the state
department to request King Edward
TO act as arbitrator Of the Alsop claim
case which has been pending between
the United States and Chile for many
years. Full authority has been tele-
graphed to Seth Low Pierrepont,
charge d'affaires Of the American le-
cation at Santiago, to sign the proto-
col Of settlement agreed on several
days ago.
The claim amounts to more than 81 :
100000. 1t grew out Of loan Of mon
ey made by Alsop & Co., an American
concern, to the Bolivian government
to be secured by the receipts at the
custom house at africa. This port later
passed into the control of Chile as q
result of war between Chile, Peru and
Bolivia. Several times the Chilean
government has admitted the validity
Of the claim and promised to pay it.
but it has never made any move to-
ward doing so.

ter to Chile, was directed recently tC
make special effort to bring about @
settlement. He was unable to accom-
plish anything and was then author
ized to leave Santiago. After his de
parture the state department sent no
tice to the Chilean government thai
the United States government intend
ed to close its legation in Santiago Il
the claim was not promptly settled
The protocol provides for the submis
sion of the dispute to King Edward

Husband Of Woman Will Sue City For
Enforcing Other Treatment. /;
Paterson, N. j., Nov. 3O.-Mrs. Agnes
Rivollier, whose husband insisted on
giving her Christian Science treatment
until the police interfered and forced
him to give her up to the hospital au-
thoriies, died of tuberculosis.
Mrs. Rivollier had been attended
regularly for two months by physi-
clans engaged by her father, Cornelius
de Baum, who is member of the
Dutch Reformed church, but he learn
ed that the nurse engaged by the hus-
band, who is a Christian Scientist,
was a member of that cult and known
as "healer." The father appealed to
the police, and under threats of arrest
the Christian Scientists permitted the
hospital physicians to take her away.
The husband is also a victim of tu-
berculosis and is taking Christian Sci
ence treatment. He says that the po-
lice exceeded their authority and be-
lieves that but for their interference
his wife would still be alive. He has
engaged a lawyer to bring suit against
the city.

Americas Grace Darling Elected Mem
Der of Newport Yacht Club.
Newport, II. l., Nov. 30.-The New
port Yacht club today elected Ida Lew
is, keeper of Lime Rock lighthouse in
Newport harbor, well known as a life
saver, an honorary member of the
club, and she thus has the distinction
Of being the first woman member of
this yachting organization.
Miss Lewis is the Grace Darling Of
America. For fifty-two years she has
lived in Lime Rock lighthouse and for
thirty years has been keeper of the
beacon. She was seventy years old
last March and two years ago last
July celebrated her golden anniversary
as a resident in the lighthouse.
Miss Lewis has made many rescues,
and she has several medals for her
achievements. One Is from the New
York Life Saving association. 1t was
given for the rescue Of two men in a
storm in March, 1869. A boy, eleven
years old, started to take two soldiers
to Fort Adams. The boat was upset,
and the boy was drowned. Miss Lew
is launched her boat and rescued the
two soldiers.
Again In 1882 she pulled two men out
of the ice, and in all she has saved
eighteen from drowning. Congress
voted her a medal in 1881, and the
Massachusetts Humane society gave
her another.

Secret Service Officials Run Down Ves-
sci Laden With Ammunition.
Galveston, Tex. Nov. 80. - Large
shipments of arms are being made
from the United States to Nicaragua
for the insurgents. This was shown
upon the overhauling of large schoon-
er in the gulf, fifty miles of the west
coast of Texas.
Secret service officials of the immi-
grafton department, who are making
desperate efforts to break up the SNUG
Cling of Chinese into this country,
were cruising in a launch when they
came across the schooner. Suspecting
the boat had a cargo of Chinese, the
government boat signaled her to heave
to, but the schooner put on full sail
and had to be run down.
An investigation failed to disclose
any Chinese, but the hold was filed
with boxes marked nails and soap.
The skipper said he was bound from
Mobile to Vera Cruz. One Of the crew
told the officers that the schooner car
ried 100 cases of cartridges, or 10000
rounds, consigned to the revolutiOnists
in Nicaragua. He said they were
shipped from a point in Louisiana and
would be transferred to another boat
on the Mexican coast.

Paris Rumor Connects Him With Muir.
der Of NJ. steinheiI.
New York, Nov. 80. - Alfred Par
fridge Klots, an American artist, who
comes from Paris to paint a portrait
Of Cardinal Gibbons, arrived here on
the liner Kroonland. He told queer
story about the murder Of NJ. Stein
he'll, for which Nine. Steinheil was
recently tried and acquitted.
Mr.. Klots said 1t Is the talk Of Pnris
that Steinheil was killed by the Grand
Duke Alexis, a cousin of the czar OF
Russia. Alexis, Mr.. Klots said, com
mitted suicide by shooting himself in
q hotel In Paris few months ago.
Mr.. Klots said the story was that
Steinheil returned Unexpectedly to his
house and surprised the duke there.
There was fight, and the duke killed
Steinheil. The mother of Nine. Stein
he'll ran into the room and was 80
startled by what she saw that she
swallowed her false teeth and was
choked to death.
Before the beginning of the trial Of
Nine. Steinheil the Duke Alexis was in
Paris, and 1t is said that a demand for
large sum Of money was made of
him with the threat that If he did not
comply he would be denounced as the
slayer of Steinheil.
On the night Of the murder the
dukes automobile was seen standing
in front of the Steinheil home. Efforts
made by the widow at the trial to drag
in the name of the duke were frus.
trated by counsel and court.
