HOW TO LIVE TO BE 15O.

|, Is quite possible to live to be I5y To l6O years, according to George Harter, who gave this in formation free to a small but select audience at the Hotel StatIer.
 All sou have to do is to throw away your salt cellars, drink only L,s.iu.f water, avoid all kinds of meats and coufine yourself to a diet Of raw vegetables and eggs, he said.
 "Wbeu your body calls for a na.. steak, go out and eat two ,aruips and drink a glass of water and you will be satisfied" said Mr. IIar,gr, If you will train it pro- aerly. Even fruits are to be eaten carefully. The juices are good, but the pulp should not be eaten.
 " 5e people will breakfast on the juice of two oranges diluted with guough distilled water to make two glasses full. Eggs should be eaten raw. l eat two dozen a day. Why, my system has been so well trained to a sane diet tHat a piece of veal two inches square would make me deathly sick.
 When people have learned to eat right there will be no sick ness, and that time is coming. l have absolutely no sympathy for d big, strong man who says he is sick. And there is no need to be faugued. On Sundays when am at hone l always take a twenty-siX- mile walk before my afternoon lec- twre. Detroit Free Press.

His RnaI Victory.

The writer has seldom witnessed deeper feeling or more enthusiastic ap- plausc from a student audience than that which greeted the confession of a southern student who arose before the men of his university and confessed dishonesty in debate. The young man had recently won the sOphomore-jun- for prize debate, but later in chapel he asked permission to make statement to the student body, saying: "I over heard my opponent rchearsing his de bate in an adjoining room, and, al- though I stopped my ears and refused to listen, my roommate took down the points. Afterward the temptation was so subtle and strong that l took the notes and arranged my debate accord ingly and won. But" said the stu
 dent, with feeling, "I stole It. and I have come to plead the forgiveness of the student b0ly."-ChrisIian Herald.

Husband of Grandma" White Ends Suffering that Stretched
 Over Long Period.

J. H. White, of Mile Twenty and husband of Grandma White, died this morning at 30 o'clock. He had been suffering for some time from kidney trouble and recently he be- came paralyzed. Since the destruc- tion of thir roadhouse by fire he and his wife have been living in a cabin near the same place. He had reached an age which was considerably over seventy. He was married about ten or eleven years ago, and it is said the marriage took place at Juneau. Mrs. White has children by a former mar riage but Mir. White was childless. Mrs. White informed Ike Evans of his death this morning and a casket vii. be sent out next Saturday when tho remains will be brought to Seward for burial which will probably take place next Sunday under the auspices of the Masons. Deceased came from some eastern state.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 12.-Mrs. Margaret Ray, her mother, Mrs. Evans, and her sister Mrs. Irene White were murdered this morning in this city by Lloyd Peyser because Mrs. Ray refused to marry him. The murder of the other two women was due to the fact that Peyser blamed them for advising Mrs. Ray against marriage with him. Peyser shot all the women down and then turning the gun on himself he committed suicide. The four bodies were found close to- gether when the reports of the shots brought neighbors and police hurry ing to the scene.

FISHERIES QUESTION
 WAS UP LAST NIGHT
At Meeting of Local Organization old Proposal For Cold Stor-
 age Here is Made

The question of establishing a cold storage plant here so that resident fishermen might take advantage of the great fishing opportunities was brought up last evening at a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce. This is the same matter which was agitat- ed last year in the Gateway at the re-
 quest of some local fishermen and is a matter of very great importance. Representative John Noon delivered a most enlightening talk on the local fishing industry and he and others ex- pressed the belief that if plant were established here scores of fishermen could reside here and make good money. The plant would cost about thirty thousand dollars. The fishing boats could go out from here as they do in the great fishing ports of the east and Europe, come back with their catch, place it in cold storage and ship out large cargoes to Seattle or Prince Rupert. Halibut, salmon and cod fishing was taken up. The proposal is similar to that which has been brought up at Nome and other places on the Alaska coast but which has not yet materialized although on paper it seems to be one of the most promising suggestions possible. MT. Colwell, at last nights meeting, sug- gested that some way should be found to get rid of the seals at the head of the bay as they prevent fish from coming in. In speaking of the mat ter this morning Judge Lindley Green stated that the manager of the Port Graham cannery told him that the salmon run every year is close into shore at the south of this peninsula but that the water is too deep there for successful cannery work, but that,

 George Grigsby of Nome still re- mains as the only Democrat who would be sure to accept the nOmina- tion for congress. Many people seem to be sure that he will be the stand ard bearer.

report in Bennington county court in
respect to the laying out of a highway
by the selectmen Of the towns of Peru
