W|CKERSHAMG GETS

Delegate Makes an Attack on ketchikan Man in Speech at
 Joint Session.

Wickersham precipitated a TOW by personal attack on Repre- sentative Ingersoll, of ketchikan, in the joint session of the two houses held last night to listen to an address by the delegate. In his keynote speech at the op- ening of the legislature 1ngersoll had criticised the organic act for insufficiency in the power grant ed to the legislature. This ap- parently made Wickersham very sore and he referred to Inger- soils statements in very bitter language. ,'
 Senator Bruner, of Nome, who was presiding at the joint ses- sion, called Wickersham to order after the delegate had continued his tirade on Ingersoll at some length. Considerable excitement prevailed, half of the members trying to get the floor at the same dime. Finally the joint session voted to allow the delegate .. to, proceed with his speech. Bruner thereupon left the chair and the
 The following extract from Representative Ingers"ll's speech, which called down upon him the wrath of the delegate, is here giv- en:.
 After carefully analyzing the enabling act which defines the powers of this legis lature. one is obliged to ask himself, out side of eracing the halls of some social function or of drawing down the generous rnol1lmentS of office. what in the world We are here for. This instrument is a paradox Of hopeless inconsistencies. Re- Splendcnt in promise. We find from one and to the nt her an in- nocunus drarth of hoprd-for priviIrgrs. Looking for the sub stance. we find the shadow. Ask ing for bread, we get a stone. In the words of the immortal bard il may best be characterized as a madness most discreet, a chok- ing gall and a sickening sweet.
 As Alaska is the largest of the .pussessions, so she is the latest to receive recognition; and the quality of that recognition is in the inverse ratio with it's size.

OUR FEARLESS SAILORS.
An Incident OF the old Days OF ths
 Cape Of Good Hope.

An incident of the Old Days oE ths
 Cape Of Good Hope.
 American vessels in those days C1S33l surpassed the sailing records of ships of every other nation. Once when down nearly to the latitude of theFCape of Good Hope we encountered thesmost severe gale of our outward bound voy- age. A mountainous seG was heaving ln from the south, and the wind, which had originally come from that direc- ton, was now blowing directly from the west with hurricane force. High as the Washington stood above the water, occasional crests would sweep her main deck and she steered so hard that 1 had to keep two men continually at the wheel and have them relieved ev- cry half hour.
 The wind. however, was fair, and therefore every man on the ship, from Captain l.. to the cooks boy, would have felt disgraced had the order been given to heave the ship to. Under dOu- ble reefed topsails and fore course she was logging upward of sixteen knots. and all hands were as pleased as if they had just been granted a weeks shore leave at New York.
 Later In the day, when the wind had moderated somewhat. we sighted large British bark hove to under short canvas. She was flying distress sig nals, so Captain L. ordered the wheel put up and ran down to have n look at her. AS soon as our signals could be clearly seen he asked what she want ed, and the bark replied with a request to stand by. Captain L. then ran up flags demanding If the bark were in- iured or anything wrong on board. The BrItsher replied again, Stand by. Do not like look of weather"
 When the second mate read the meaning of this signal out of the code book a great laugh went up in our cabin, and Captain L. replied with flags reading, "See nothing wrong in this weather" and holsted the Amer. can ensign above the signal in order to give point to his remark. No doubt the British captain said, Another of those crazy Yankees?' when he read our flags, but we were in Batavia week before he appeared.-From "The Journal of Captain Nathaniel Webber in Outing

And the Treatment It's Victims Re-
 eoived In the Middle Ages.
 Why Ieprosy occurs in certain places and not in others is one of the mys' teries of medicine. In the early centu- ries of the Christian era it spread all over Europe. Every city had it's Ieper house. For no cause that any one can assign 1t began to disappear early in the sixteenth century, and Europe soon numbered Its empty lazarettos by thou sands. Climate has no influence or the disease, for when it left the most of Europe 1t persisted in Norway Ice land. Spain and the islands of the Med, iterranean. In Asia 1t Is to be found from India to Siberia. and no part or Africa Is free from it.
 That leprOsy can be planted in new territory Is shown most pOintedly in the terrible experience of Hawaii which was free from the disease until about 1850, when the Chinese brought It there. Now MOlokai is name to make men shudder.
 In the middle ages it was the GUS tom to consider Q man dead whenever he was found to have leprosy. His heirs divided his property, a funeral service was suid for him and shovel ful of earth thrown after him as he walked to his living grave in the leper house.

People with kidney ills want to be cured. When one suffers the tortures of an aching back, relief is eagerly sought for. There are many remedies today that relieve, but not permanently. Doans Kid ney Pills have brought lasting results to thousands. Hers Is proof of merit from this vicinity:
 F. A. Sutton, tent and awning dealer, Room 6, Capitol Hotel Bldg, Salem, Oregon, says: "I had Kid ney trouble and rheumatism for ten years and sometimes was laid up, Doctors did not help me, Sharp pains extended through my back and were most severe in my kidneys and loins. Often when working, had to give up. l lost weight and was In very poor health. l had headaches, rest cd but little at night and did not know what to do. On a friends ad- vice tried Doan's Kidney Pills and to my surprise, they brought a great improvement ina few days. continued to get better steadily. I got more sleep, my appetite improV- ed and the pains gradually, but surely left me. After I had used three boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills I was in better health than I had been for ten years and not a sign of kidney complaint remained. The cure had been permanent. l gladly confirm the endorsement I gave Deans Kidney Pills several years ago"
