And the sculptured forms OF the men
And their faces ere they died.
And what heroic ngures
Can the sculpture carve in stone
Can the marble breast be made to

And the marble lips to moan?
Can the marble brow be feVered?
And the marble eye be graved
To look their last. as the nag hoats
On the country they have saved?
And the answer came: The figures

Juneau. Dec. 2T-The district at toruey's office received a message from Guauajuato, Mexico. this morn ing. stating that Joe Mcdonald, former superintendent of the Tread well mine. hNd been arrested in that city. and would be returned to Alaska for trial.
 It is said that a number of years ago. Mcdonald killed a man named Jones who was supposed to be tres passing on the Treadwell property, but the corouor's jury released him. The case has recently been brought up before the grand jury, where the premature publication of the circumstances by a Juneau news paper has caused considerable ad- verse comment. Regarding it, the Daily Empire says:
 "A sensation was created in the district court this morning over the opening Of the alleged secret iudtct- ment of Joe Mcdonald for the mur- der of \. C. Jones, some years ago. This morning Mir. Cobb arose in court and stated that he had been instructed by wire from Joseph Nc Donald to say to the court, and dis trict attorneys office, that if there was an indictment pending against him. extraditiou would not be nee essary but he would appear for trial at any time that it suited the gov erument. Mir. Cobb further stated that he had sought to take up the matter with the district attorney but the district attorney declined to discuss the matter on the ground that it was still a secret indictment. Judge Overfield asked that the mat ter be taken up in chambers.

announcement of fact. The publica- tion to the effect that the secret in- dictment found that day was against Joe Mcdonald together with a part of the testimony taken at the coron- CTS inquest created great indigna- tiop amongst members of the grand jury. One member, Mir. Achison, who lives in Skagway, refused to go home although he had been excus- ed from further service, until the publisher of the publication was sum moned before the grand jury.
 The district attorneys office, as well as the attorneys for Mir. Me Dona d. are iucensed over the pub Hcation of the proceedings at this time The testimony taken at the coroner's inquest ten years ago was loaned by Judge J. F. Malony under express instructions that it must not be published and the pledge of faith exacted that it would not be printed. The publicity given the matter makes it practically impossi- ble for the trial to be held in Jun eau.

FOLKS PAST FIFTY
 MUST USE CASCARETs
What glasses arc to weak eyes, Cas- carets are to weak bOwels-a 1O-
 cent box will truly amaze


 Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipa tion. The condi- tion is perfectly natural. It is just as natural as it is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active as youth. The muscles are less elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
 So all old people, need Cascarets. One might as we'll refuse to aid weak eyes with glasses as to neglect this gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels must be kept active. This is important at all ages, but never so much as at fifty.
 Age is not time for harsh physics Youth may occasionally whip the bowels into activity But a lash can't be used every day. What the bowels of the old need is a gentle and natural tonic. One that can be constantly used without harm. The only such tonic is Cascarets and they cost only 10 cents per box at any drug store. They work while you sleep.
