NO MAIL WILL ARRIVE
 UNTIL NEXT MONTH

Owing to the impossible condition of the trails, the three weekly mails due from Seward over the winter route will not be delivered until a water route from Ophir down the Innoko river and up the Iditarod is open to passage As it is the intention of the contractors to bring all the accumulated mail at one time it is not likely that it will reach here until some time in June.
 Bob Boyd, who left here on April 25 with the last consignment of outgoing mail over the winter trail to Seward, was able to proceed only as far as Moore creek, where he was met by his brother, Tom, who IS in charge of the route beyond Takotna He had been unable to make connection with the incoming mail, which was supposed to be at Berry's, on the South fork of the Kuskokwm. Tom Boyd took the outgoing mail, which he will attempt to forward, and Bob Boyd returned to this city.
 It is understood that when all of the in coming mail has been brought to Takotna 1 tt will be carried to Ophir and thence trans l ierred by boat to this city
 MT Boyd reports the trail impossible for horses, and it was impossible for him to secure dogs The rivers were at flood and {! the ice was about ready to go out. It is presumed that by this time the Kuskokwim and its tributaries are free of ice and prog ress can be made bringing in the mail by inc use of boats to Takotna.
 It is expected that the first mail over the
 summer route will arrive during the latter part of May or the first of June. The first mail is scheduled to leave Nulato during the week of May 23-20, upon the arrival of mail from Tanana. Thereafter there will be four mal deliveries each month

 On Monday afternoon last considerable anxiety was felt by those in charge of Riley X Marston's lredge while the heavy flow of ice was coming down Otter creek. There was a high stage of water, and the ice, in large. thick and solid chunks, filled the stream from bank to bank For many yards directly in front of the gold ship the ice jammed very compactly, and many men were employed in diverting the flow. A timely recession of the waters relieved the tension of the dredge's anchorings before any severe damage was done, but on Tuesday afternoon the operators had several thou sand tons of nice, clear ice delivered at their front doors which they never ordered.

THE NEWEST REMEDY FOR
BACKACHE, RHEUMATISM AND DROPSY

Kidney, Bladder and'Uric Acid trou-
bles bring misery to many. When
the kidneys are weak or diseased,
these natural filters do not cleanse
the blood sufficiently, and the poisons
are carried to all parts Of the body.
There follow depression, aches and
pains, heaviness, drowsiness. irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obsti-
nate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones.
When the uric acid affects the muscles
and joints it causes lumbago, rheunla-
tism, govt or sciatica- This is the time
