A second holdup was reported yes terday afternoon from Fairbanks creek, when d passerby on the Fair banks creek road heard Sam kova- cevich call and. going into the brush short distance. found him tied hani and foot where the robbers had drag ged him after knocking him out.
 The robbery occurred on the main creek road at the Bear creek saddle. and took place in broad daylight. be- ing done by two masked men.
 Koyacevich was relieved of sl26 in money and $40 in nuggets by the thieves. who are reported to be the proverbial tall and short man. Both men wore masks of blue handker- chiefs.
 After they had taken his money one of the gunmen proceeded to knock him out. when he requested g. SO that he would not be broke.

 IN SIBERIA

try. The production of god ,n west crn Siberia amounted L. about so poods in 1910. and in 1911. US in the case of the Urals. is expected to ba about equal to this.
 Going further to the famous Olek- min and Vitim river basins. where the Lena Gold Company has operated with such wonderful success-at all events. as a producer-the yield this last year is expected to come out in- ferior to that of 1910. which was about si5 poods. because the want of water made 1t difficult in many cases and i'm possible in others to wash gold.
 The production of gold in 1910. which was something like 500 poods in these two provinces, has received a serious setback in 1911 and is expect ed to have no better than 700 poods when the figures are available. This preliminary statement for 1911 that while the nearer gold fields. those of the Urals and Western Siberia, will soon have done with dredges. the more ones. namely. those of Eastern and as far northeast as the Tchukot peninsula. where, as has been pointed out. about 95 per will afford a market for dredges.

ST. LOUIS. Oct. 16.-Afflicted by a mysterious malady which has baffled more than 50 St. Louis physicians who have been called in consultation, ;. A. Hendricks. a 65-year-old farmer or Van Buren. Mo, is turning back 10 the Mayfield sanatorium.
 Five months ago his skin was Tar and ruddy. Today his complexion IS several shades darker than that or mulatto. and a rapid change to biach is carrying him through successiveiy darker shades.
 Tho change is so swift that it can be noted from day to day by th@ physicians who are powerless to check 1t or even to find a satisfactory eX- planation.
 When Hendricks was taken to the sanitarium on July 25 he weighed l9o pounds. His present weight IS 70 pounds.

Reports are beginning tu come in though not of sufficiently eomple. .c character. respecting the gold produc tion in Russia and Siberia during the past year. one is to the effect that in the Urals, the production m 1910 amounted to about 4SO poods Ga pood Is worth about s1O.Ss6.7OD of gold.

FAIRBANKS HAS
 MANY HOLD-UPS

Hendrickson, the Blue Parkey" spent some time in Dawson. and later terrorized the Fairbanks camp, have successors in the same territory doing a wholesale business. The Fairbanks Times says:
 Not since the days of the Blue Parkey man" has the camp been vis- ited by an occurrence such as took place on upper Fairbanks creek about midnight Tuesday, when q masked highwayman held up Emil kaakinen, a hotel man of Fairbanks. searched him for valuables and. unable to find any, ordered him to march on, while he himself proceeded to disappear from sight in the brush. The myster- ious robber has not been apprehend- ed, nor has any clue been found that would lead to his identity.
 The robbery took place on a little used trail running up and down stream on l above discovery on Fair banks creek. There were no wit nesses, aside from the principals. The robber used a big revolver to COW his victim, and appeared to be considera- ply excited while going through the pockets of the hotel man. He seeur- ed nothing. but in his haste overlook ed a four-bit piece that happened to be enveloped in the folds of a to- hacco sack

Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1912-11-30

WASH NGTON, Nov. 30,-Of the
lmany remarkable happenings OF late IN
the United States, one OF the most
noteworthy IS the formal announce.
ment of the Carnegie Foundation that,
through the muniicence OF Andrew
Carnegie, provision has been made for
a pension for each future ex-President
of the United States, ana his unmar-
ried widow, CT 1926, 900 a year, "as long
US they remain unprovided for by the
nation, that they may be able TO spend
the latter part of their lives devoting
their unique knowledge gained Of pub
lie affairs to the public good, free from
Decuniary cares. These pensions are
to be promptly offered to the expires
idcnts, or their widows, so that no
application will be required from
:hcT."
Naturally, President Taft refuses to
discuss the matter, as also does Mrs.
BENJAMIN Harrison. Mrs. Grover
Cleveland shares the opinion held by
her distinguished husband that "our
people ought to make a definite anu
generous provision for all cases alike,
based on motives Of justice and fair
ness, and adequate to the situation.
Mention has already been made OF the
requirements by the people, that the
conduct and occupations Of their form.
er presidents shculd be so restricted
that the dignity Of the position the
occupy will be scrupulously maintain
ed. This suggests without argument.
a recipracol connection between the
curtailment of opportunities for live.
lihood on one side and a reasonable Oh.
legation of indemnification on the
other" l
President Taft Is a man OF moderate
means, his personal fortune footing
up about $4,000 and during his ten.
IRE in Office he has lived frugally, the
White House social functions, while
quiet and becoming in character, ne'-
err being ~extravagant. His chief d.
version Is fonGness for travel, and its
expenses have been fully met by the
appropriation of $4,000 a year, pro-
vided by congress since the begin
ming of his administration.

House with estimated wealth of $100,-

Considering that some OF the troops

tions that would have In previous
years produced typhoid fever at the
rate of at least $50 cases and Is deaths
In q corresponding period, the army
officers feel that the enforcement or
the vaccination system leaves no room
for any question as to Its wisdom. me
rate of typhoid per 1000, beginning
| with 1906, was a follows: 1906, 5.66;
1907, 1853: 1908, 2.94; 1898, 3.03; 1910,
2.32; 1911, 0.S0, and 1912, O1S. The
remarkable reduction In typhoid Is al
tributed to the immunizing influences
of the vaccination.
Orders have been issued by the navy
department directing the establish
ment, under the U. 8. Bureau of Navi.
cation, of an office to have charge o.
naval-radioteiegraph matters, h
| headquarters of which will be at Ar
lington, Virginia. This new office is
necessary on account of the great ex'
pansion Of radio affairs, due to the
| United States becoming a party to the
| Berlin convention, and the radio legis-
lation that was enacted by congress
and goes into effect on December IL.
An important recent event In radio
communication Is the establishment Of
a radio station at the American lega.
ton at Picking. which Is operated by
marines detached from the legations
marine guard. This station has COM
m%unicated at night with American M
val vessels at Shanghai, a distance
val vessels of about 900 miles and also
with vessels at Chefoo and Tsingtau.
The station viii be of value In case OF
sudden trouble at Picking, as, the Amer.
lean minister will be able promptly 10
communicate with the cOmmanderin-
chief Of the American Asiatic Fleet
either at Shanghai or at Hapkow, the
probable Headquarters of the flagship,
in case of any future disturbances in
China.
The naval radio station at YeTGa
Buena Island, in San Francisco Bay,
has been abandoned, 1t being found
that the radio station at Mare Island
Navy Yard will be able to perform the
needed service of that vicinity. The
naval radio station at Woody Island,
Kodiak, Alaska, destroyed by a vol
canic eruption last June has been re-
established and is now in operation.

There was quite little display of
fireworks at the council meeting
Tuesday evening over the question
of cutting down the number of fire
companies in the city. Some time
ago a committee was appointed to
investigate the q ueston and after a
good ideal Z of study they finally
recommended to the council that
Fire Co. No l should be discon-
tinued and it was over their action
that the wrangle in the meeting
was started There was discussions
by both sides and when a vote. was
finally taken it developed that there
was a tie and the fire department.
was ordered to be cut down by the
vote of the mayor, the members
voting as follows: Yes--Ambly.
Peterson, Hanberg, Martinson, Ross
and Peavey. No--Bryan, Fluck,
Wescott, Herring and Dibbell.
In making the change there has
