Hugh F. Brady, second son of former Governor Brady, recently returned To Sitka to look after his fathers mining interests. Hugh was born in Alaska
 The new steamship Cordova arrived here this morning, after making l5,OOO mile trip around the Horn, says the Skagway Alaskan. She is now at the wharf unloading 5000 bales of hay, g head of cattle and 40 tons of dredge machinery which will go to the interior. Captain Fred Warner, formerly of the St. Croix and the first port captain of Alaska Steamship company after the merger of the Northwesterniand Alaska Steamship companies in 1908, is in con- mand of the Cordova. Capt. Warner brought the vessel from the Atlantic seaboard. Captain Jack Livingstone, we'll known here, and very popular, Is pilot. Second Steward Conway of the Jefferson is aboard the COrdova, and Purser Jones, of the s. s. Dora, is of ficiating in that capacity on the new vessel. The Cordova carries a crew of thirty men. On her trial run she devel- oped twelve and half miles an hour- She is 2273 gross and 1406 net tons. There is passenger accommodation for 65 frst.class passengers. She was built by the Harlan -Hollingsworth company at Wilmington, Del, and was completed in March last. One feature of the Cor dova's voyage from the Atlantic is worthy of attention, and that is she carried sufficient fuel oil when she left Philadelphia to steam her to Taltal, Chile, distance of 9,7O0 miles. Her oil burners, of the Dahl type, were found to work perfectly, and after re- plenishing her supply of fuel oil at TaltaI she proceeded for the North Pa cific.
 The United States geological survey has just published an account of one of the ten greatest earthquakes of his- toric times-that in the Yakutat bay region of Alaska Although there is no special relation between earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, the recently reported earthquake at Fairbanks as we'll as the activity among Alaskan vol- canoes gives perhaps added interest to this account of a natural phenomenon of another class. The Yakutat bay earthquake occurred op September 3, 1899. and was followed during the next three weeks by many less violent shocks. The area of greatest intensity lay along the Hanks of the St. Elias range, in region of high mountains and superb glaciers, and the movement was accompanied by enormous avail anches and rock slides. This is demon stration that the growth of the noun tain is still in progress. Atsome places in the region the land subsided and forests were submerged At most places. however, the land rose, and many points which before had lain be- low sea level were elevated above it. Barnacles which had lived in sea water were found 47 feet above sea level The study of the effects of this earth movement was undertaken by the late Ralph s. Tar, of Cornell university and Lawrence Martin, of the University of Wisconsin, and their report of the work has just been published as Professional Paper 69 of the United States geological survey, with a preface by G. K. Gilbert. Mining Science.

 According to the New York Times of July II, the Central Meteorological Bureau at Zurich reports curious phenomenon in the higher atmosphere above the Alps, resem bling the air troubles of 1902 and 1903 in those re- gions. Volcanic dust containing cin, cinders and molecules coming from the recent eruption in Alaska has ar. rived above the Alps. The volcanic dust seems to be travelling northward, and has been observed as far north as the observatory at Heidelberg. Violent electrical storms followed the phenom. enon ten years ago.
 T. R. Meredith, who arrived in Sew ard from Illiamna bay, brings informa tion that clears up the disappearance three years ago of Knudson, Swedish prospector, returning from the Mul. chatna, where he went to prospect for copper. A party who hunted for him in the fall, month ago found the re. mains of his camps, but DO further trace of him. This spring one of his camps was discovered, and sack of human bones found. They are sup posed to be the bones of the missing prospector. Knudson had at the time of his disappearance sum of money in excess of $2,000, and now the crime is laid to the door of two men who were prospecting in that section, and who have since left the country.
 The Nome boys have had their noses to the pie counter since the advent of the Taft administration, and are now getting their feet on the table. Let's take a look at the fat jobs they have landed: Judge of the Fourth division, Peter D. Overfeld; U. s. district at- torney for the Third division and judge of the Second division, c. D. Murane; judge of the Third division, FEE. Fuller; U. s. district attorney for the First division, John Rustgard; U. s. marshal for the Third division, Harvey D. Sulli- van; U. s. marshal for the Second di- vision, T. Cader Powell. Then there are scores of lesser officials, such as deputy U. s. marshals and deputy clerks. And candor compels the ad- mission that the Nome boys are making good, too.-Ex.
 Officials in the lower Yukon country are satisfied that in the capture of Joe Campbell they secured the murderer of the Nelson brothers in the Kuskokwim country, whose bodies were found in 8 shallow grave on river bar last Feb ruary and from whom it is believed about S25,000 in gold dust was stolen. Campbell left shortly after the murder for the outside and was known to be "broke" when seen by old Yukoners at Seattle and Vancouver. The fact that he returned North this spring would indicate that he had made cache of the loot and returned for it, It is be. lieved Campbell will confess to the crime, before he comes up for trial. He is said by those who knew him here a few years agO to have streak of In dian blood in him.

 Lured by the standing offer of S250,- 900 made by an American motion pie ture syndicate for film depicting Bogoslof island in the process of aris- ing from or subsiding into the sea, and the success made by the Lane Klein schmidt Alaskan moving pictures in New York, hegira of notion picture photographers to Alaska has been sent. -EX.
 The Leelanaw brought the largest and most valuable shipment of furs sent down from the North in one con signment in several years. It con- sisted of mink, bear and and fox and is valued at more than S50,000. The furs were loaded at Kotzebue, where the Leelanaw put in with 800 tons of cargo for the settlements around Kotz- ebue sound.
 The Alaska Fish Products company at Seward has put up no barrels of red salmon and has quantity of dog sal- mon and humpies in the brine ready for the barrels. The company's force was so busily engaged in catching and putting up the salmon that it had no time to devote to the manufacture of fish oils, glue, soap stocks and fertil- izer, but now that the first run Of the edible fish is over, attention will be given to what is intended to be the chief feature of the concern.

itching Every Moment
DISTRESSING ECZEMA MAY BE
QUICKLY BANISHED.
Try This Remedy Mt Our RISK.

Eczema is seen in so many forms
that any itching eruption is almost
certain to be this disease. In the
acute stage the itching is almost mad
dening, as it does not give one a
moments peace.
Our new skin remedy, SaxO Salve,
was devised to meet the need for a
really trustworthy and scientific
treatment Of skin troubles
SaxO Salve not only stops the ter
rifle itching at once but also pene-
trates the skin pores, reaching the
very root of the disease with its heal
ing germ destroying power
You will be both surprised and de-
lighted to see how the eruption be-
gins to dry up and disappear after
the first few applications.
1t is splendid for children as wesi
as for adults, and we give back your
money if SaXO Salve does not salts
fy you perfectly. Kelly & Pollard,

A Gentleman Of she .OId school, Who
INeeps Up With the TEmes.

Many people have poor teeth weak
gums, sore teeth and other bOthersOme
! troubles that prevent a vigorous mas
( ticatiOn of food. And instead of eat
ing soft mushy food that pals on the
appetite they go in for those savory
dishes. the very odor Of which starts the
saliva and makes the stomach fairly
revcl with anticipation.
This is but q natural condition. Any
thing else borders upon the indiffer-
ence which fosters indigestion and
chronic dyspepsia
Tt may be safely said that it should
not be a question of diet or kind Of
food. or teeth or even any OF the re-
fleNes which are supposed to have their
influence in deranginE the stomach. 1t
is simply a matter of supplying the
stomach and digestive organs with
those known assistants such as pepsin.
and hydrOchlOric acid. both of which
have a direct and powerful action upon
the contents Of the stomach
one grain of a single ingredient in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets viii digest
5000 grains of food. This saves your
stomach and gives it the rest it needs.
All muscles require occasional rest if
they are ever Over-taSed. The stOm-
ach is no exception to this rule.
Try a box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets and YOU viii wonder how YOU ever
got along without them. They are sold
at 30 cents by all druggists every
whereby.
