The offen,e was al legged to have been committed shortly be- fore the departure of the defendant for Mar shall City, where he has been working a. teamster during the winter Since the complaint was filed it has developed that J. E. Riley, the Otter creek mining operator told McGioney that he could have pl r belonging to him. which he would find near the cid Ronan-Monckman lay. McGion~ claims that he took the Geld Company ,law in the belief that he was getting h. one belonging to Riley.

Election Notes


 There was to have been meeting ot the old council for the purpose of winding up its business and turning the affairs ot the municipality over to the new council last evening" but owing to the stampede to the Tolstoi and the fact that members of both he old and new councils had joined in the rush to stake claims, Mayor Stanton post poned the call indefinitely.
 Mayor Stanton appointed three members of the Iditarod bar as members of the cleo :ioH board, and aS the stampede to ha>tO- don creek was in full blast, there were those unkind enough to say that the mayor Lad thus disposed of his fellow attorneys in oricr to enjoy a monopoly of the legal business in connection with the departure of 90 any persons for the new diggings. MesSrs. Taylor, Harrison and Moody, however, re C,sed to be sldetracked in this manner, and they posted outside the election booth g crudely drawn sign which announced that powers of attorney would also be made out, and which was adorned with the names of the three legal lumnlanes.
 The election board consisted of MaSSrS. Charles Taylor. Fred Harrison, j C. Moody, Earl Hunt and E. J. Smith. They made q ruling similar to that made last year with reference to registration, which was in ef- feet that the registration law was invalid,

come-though God grant it may not
when the trained woman will be
needed to take the place in the ranks
for the protection of home and
honor.
This is a possibility remote-but it
is nevertheless a possibility. These
women are giving their sanction in
the most convincing way they can
devise to the preparedness program
of President Wilson.
It is the same splendid spirit which
is moving the women of the country
to join in the great preparedness pa
rades which are sweeping the country
in fire of patriotic fervor. When,
on July fourth, the great prepared
ness parade is held in this city, it is
estimated that there will be hundreds
of women who have never before
taken part in any public demonstra-
ton, who will be in line, to show their
love and loyalty to the flag and the
nation.

YOUR FIFTY CENT DOLLAR-JUST SEE WHAT HAS
HAPPENED TO IT YOU FOLKS
BY Frederick NJ. kerby.

Washington, D. c., June 13.-The house
wife's dollar has shrunk to 50 cents.
So says the United States bureau of
Labor statistics in an analysis Of the
purchasing power of a dollar covering
the years from 1890 to date
In 1890, for instance, the thrifty house
wife could get Ito pounds of round
steak for her dollar, or one pound for
about II cents, BY the end of 1915, how
ever, her dollar would buy less than
IL pounds of round steak, which had
gone up to more than % cents a pound.
1t is the same with sirIoin, rib roast.
pork chops, smoked bacon, ham, lard,
chickens, eggs, butter, milk, -four corn
meal and Irish potatoes. Some have not
advanced so sharply in price, but all
show decided increase.
Back in 1890 a dollar would buy 90
pounds of pork chops; by the end of 1915,
the same dollar would buy only "a
pounds. In 1890 pounds Of smoked ba-
con could be had for a dollar; by 1915,
the dollar would secure only 3.6 pounds.
This period of 26 years does away with
unusual fluctuations in making compar-
isons and enables the bureau to estimate
the steady rise in fod prices which has
taken place.
One of the most remarkable of these
is the increases in the price of eggs. In
1890 the average retail price per dozen
of eggs was a little more than 20 cents.
Thus As dozen eggs could be bought for
dollar. In 1915 the average price had
advanced more than 80 cents, or three
dozen for one dollar. In December 1915,
eggs sold at 46 cents.
Returns to the bureau from represen-
tative retail dealers in the United States,
covering the principal staple articles of
of food, show that as a whole the retail
price of food increased approximately 1
per cent between Feb. 10, 1916, and
March Is, 1915.

HOT WATER AND "ANURIc"
BEFORE MEALS--AND HEALTH

All people in America and especial
ly those who are past middle age are
prone to eat too much meat and in
consequence deposit lime-salts in
their arteries, veins and joints. They
often suffer from twinges of rheu-
matism or lumbago, sometimes from
govt, swollen hands or feet. Such
people are not always able to exer-
else sufficiently in the outdoor air or
drink enough pure water in order to
sweat freely and excrete impurities
thru the skin. DIR. Pierce has con-
Quoted experiments and thoroughly
tested a uric acid solvent at his Inva-
lids Hotel and Surgical Institute
which he is convinced is many times
more potent than lithia-this be
named "Anuric." 1t can be had at
almost all drug stores by simply ask
ing for DIR. Pierce's Anuric for kid
neys or backache. 1t will overcome
such conditions as rheumatism, drop
steal swellings, cold extremities
scalding and burning urine and sleep,

WOMEN WILL TAKE PART
IN PREPAREDNESS PARADE

Seldom has anything so stirred the
imagination of the American people
as did the preparedness parade which
marched down Fifth avenue, tens of
thousands strong, but a few weeks
ago, and the spirit of which has
swept the county, moving the smaller,
but no less patriotic cities, to join
in giving evidence of their loyalty
and devotion to their country.
New Orleans was one of the first
southern cities to respond to the SEN
timent for preparedness, with a great
parade in which thousands of women
were represented. Montgomery held
a great preparedness parade on We'd
nesday. Mobile will celebrate on July
fourth, on the same date on which
Pensacola and many other cities of
the country will also give their pub
lie sanction to preparedness.
All over the country the women
have taken a very active and leading
part in the preparedness programs,
of whatever nature. The women of
the United States have shown, in a
wonderful way their love of country
and their loyalty to the flag.
Unborn in woman is the love of
peace. The desire to conserve, to
save, to succor. But deeper than this
holier than this, stronger than this
there burns an undying love of coun,
try-that love which is the expires
sion of woman's abiding faith in the
sacredness of home, the conservation
to her family, the holy fires of the

sickness, resort to DIR. Pierce's de-
pendable household prescriptions.
These medicines as put up for sale
by druggists have never been recon-
mended as "cure-alls," but only as
superior remedies for certain com
mon and easily-recognized diseases.
Had these medicines been adopted to
all classes and forms of chronic dis
eases there would have been no ne
cessity for organizing a competent
staff of expert physicians and sur
geons, to act in the treatment of
difficult, obscure and complicated
cases of chronic diseases, as DIR.
Pierce maintains in his Invalids' Ho-
tel and Surgical Institute. Of his
home remedies the most widely
known are his "Favorite Prescrip-
ton" for womanly troubles and run
down conditions peculiar to the wom-
anly sex; his "Golden Medical Dis
covery," the greatest of all herbal
system tonics and vitalizers, for
stomach, liver and blood disorders, as
well as his pleasant Pellets" the
tiny, tonic laxatives, overcoming con-
stipation and cleansing the system
of poisons and accumulations in the
bowels. (adv.)

domestic altar, which must be kept
burning, bright and pure, if love is to
abide, and honor to be preserved.
In all histories of all peoples of the
world, women has borne her part
bragely and nobly in the great crises.
The south is hallowed no less with the
tears of women, the holy spirit of
womanhood, than with the blood of
heroes, and across the seas, where
women are giving their dearest and
best to the service of their country,
and are taking the places of men in
the battle with the wolf-women are
doing what they have ever done
bearing their brave part IN the great
world conflict.
Women do not want war. Women
crave peace. But the women of to-
day, no less than the women of the
past, are facing life with level eyes.
In the horrid tumult and the roar of
battle they do not look for the olive
branch, but realizing that they must
wait until the terrible waters have
subsidized, they have girded on the
armor of patriotism, and under the
flag of loyalty, have set themselves
to the task of preserving all that may
be possible from the terrible conflict
which has gripped the world.
The little bond of women who are
training at Chevy Chase express in a
powerful way the spirit of nation.
The same spirit that actuates these,
is alive in the breast of every true
American woman. These women are
not in camp training because they
want war. They are not in camp
training because they want to lead a
charge in battle because they want to
emulate their brother in the strife Of
worlds. They are in camp training
because their splendid intelligence
and their noble womanhood has re-
sponded to the call of the times.
Wars hot breath has already swept
this country. There is menace in the

new in literature, but, more than this,
something which Is imperishable.
Whether the story lives or is for
gotten, Jean Webster has so stirred
the heart of the world with her story
that its lesson can never end, and
those who have read and have smiled
and wept over its pages, or who have
seen the story in it's dramatized form,
know that Jean Webster can never
really die, but that her beautiful
spirit and love of little children will
live and bless the world always, in
some undying form.
Jean Webster has left a legacy be-
hind her to her family and her friends
"a little daughter, born the day be-
fore her mothers death.
There seems something strangely
fatalistic in this. AS if the great
mother heart, prophetic of the or
phaned child, sent out a plea to the
world, for all orphaned children. For
it was to the motherless and father
less that Jean Webster turned the
heart of the world, in that wonder
full, exquisite portrayal of a girls
life-Daddy Long Legs. Her message
was one that rang very high and
sweet and clear above the sordid COM
mercialism of the day, the same mes
sage that one finds, somehow, in every
beautiful likeness of the tender, wo-
manly face of the author.
Jean Webster was born in Fredonia,
N. Y, on July %, 1876. She was
graduated from Vassar in 1901, after
which she lived for several years in
Italy.
Several years ago she made one Of
party that went abroad, of which
a number of Floridians were members,
several of the students and faculty
of the Woman's College at Tallahas-
see, among the number. She and
Mrs. Cawthon, dean of the college,
became great friends aboard ship. She
was married last summer to Glenn
Ford Mckinney, New York lawyer.
She wrote a number of books for
girls, but nothing so whimsical, so
humorous and so sweet as Daddy
Long Legs-the story of founding.
