Maple Creek, Sask., Sept. 19.-For-
tunes which promise to total millions
may ONE to sixteen Canadian soldiers
who have been officially awarded Inn
mense beds of potash deposits in Ing
bright lake, 80 miles north of here.
The soldiers incidentally were
among the first Of the. Canadian
forces to- clash with the Germans in
France.
Last July rumors> became general
that the dry bed of Ingbright lake
contained vast quantities Of .sulphate
Of potash, magnesium sulphate, salts
and minerals. Later it was learned
that the region had been visited by.
experts from the estate Of the late
Baron Rhondda, who was food com
troller for Great Britain, and the
Canadian Northern railroad also had
become interested.
The storiea attracted the attention
of Major M. "A. Macpherson and
fifteen privates. A delegation started
from Swift Current in an automobile
and soon were ! racing northward
across the prairie,S followed, by other
automobile parties who were also
making for the lake. The soldiers
reached the lake q few minutes ahead
Of Canadian Northern railroad ON
cials. The Rhondda party came up
third. But Major MacPhefson and
according to their reports. the claims
were not contested.
Samples Of the deposits have been
analysed at the University Of sas-
katchewan and pronounced unusually
pure. It was declared that open pit
mining can easily remove great guam
titles Of the deposits.

SALTS IF bACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink lots of water and stop eating
meat for q while if your Bladder
troubles you.

When you wake up with baclcache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gen.
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says a well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have bacllache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutralize acids in the urine 80 it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is life saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, cannot
iniure and makes delightful, efer-
Vescent lithia water drink.

WHEN DEWEY WAS AT MANILA.
We Were Then Very Close to Clash
With Germany.

When Admiral Dewey's fleet was in
Manila harbor in 1885, after taking the
city, the only fleet which did not sa-
lutte our flag was the feet Of the Ger
man government. 1t was heavier, gun
for gun, than the American. Its atti-
tude was so threatening that the Eng
lish feet under Admiral Chichester an
1t was not the last time English and
American fleets were to act together
in defense of freedom.
In the judgment and on the authori-
ty of one of the few of those then on
the ground and still living who held
high positions no doubt existed in our
fleet, our army or our civil administra-
tors that the kaiser's feet had instruc-
tons to use any opportunity for action.
The German government extorted from
us the Caroline islands, now in Japa-
nese hands, serious addition to our
future perils of the Pacific.
When President Mckinley came to a
final decision on our retention of the
Philippines he was powerfully iinfluu-
enced by a personal message from Lord
Salisbury, not through the usual chan
nels, that he hoped the United States
would keep the archipelago, because If
we did not this German government
would take them and a general war
would follow, since Japan and Eng
land would act. / say this on the au-
thority of my lifelong friend and for
thirty years my beloved chief on the
Philadelphia Press, the late Charles
Emory Smith, then postmaster general.

FINE MONEY TAKEN IN
BY JUSTICES OF THE PEACE

Treasurer Richards has sent his re-
port of moneys received for fines TO
the state. 1t covers the assessments
made by the justices of the county for
various petty misdemeanors and TO-
tails $1O12.16. This report also takes
in the returns from the Clerk OF the
Circuit Court. Each case there pays
ST and as there were lib cases the
treasurer has SO many dollars.
The report covers only reports OF the
late Justice Reeves, Matt Edgar, Eu-
gene Tubbs, and H. Roscoe. Seven OF
the fines in Justice Reeves court were
for violation of the game law and they
amounted to 500 Fourteen were
fined for assault and battery, one for
disturbing meeting, and Steve Hallas
has his name on the Reeves roll three
times. one for selling liquor on cleo
ton day, and twice for selling liquor
on Sunday. He paid $50. Other fines
were for abusive language, 2; receiv-
ing stolen property, 1: SEEMING fish, 1
disturbing meeting, /; petty larceny,
L: violations of ordinances and laws
relating to automobiles, ,.
One of the cases in Squire Reeves
court was of Herman Spresser, who
paid $33.34 fine and there is a note i'll
the margin that $16.56 was paid to
the informer.''
Matt Edgar had only been justice
a short time when the report was made.
He had two fines. one for assault and
battery and the other for assault with
abusive language.
Justice Eugene Tubbs turned in 50
and Justice III. Roscoe, $50 but the re-
port in each case does not give the VIC
lation.

FINDING A COMET.
One Case Where a Blunder Proved q
Friend to Science.

One Case Where Blunder Proved a
Friend to Science.
Probably the most extraordinary
discovery Of comet was that Of the
one known as "a 1896" 1t happened
this way, as told in Science by w. w.
Campbell of the Lick observatory:
Professor Charles d. Perrine discOv-
cred a comet on Nov. II, 1895, and
observed it night after night till Dec.
20, 1895, when it was lost to sight in
the glare of the suns rays. Professor
Perrine and Mr.. Campbell calculated
its orbit for 1896, and their computa-
tons were published in the astronom-
ical journals.
Just before dawn ON Jan. 80, 1896,
Perrine and Campbell watched it
emerge from behind the sun at the
precise spot they had predicted. On
Feb. Il d cablegram in cipher an
nounced that Lamp at Kiel, Germany,
had rediscovered Perrines comet that
morning and gave it's position. This
differed by twenty-four minutes of time
from the position in which Perrine
knew his comet to be. This was not
explained for several weeks, when it
turned out that In translating the CT
pher cablegram mistake had been
made and that the cablegram as sent
placed the comet just where Perrine
had observed it.
Before this error had been discovered,
however, and ON the morning of Feb.
Is Perrine turned his telescope to the
spot indicated in the cablegram and
saw a comet. He naturally supposed
that Lamp at Kiel had discovered this
new comet and mistaken it for the
Perrine comet, and not until the error
in translating the cablegram was dis
covered did it become evident that this
was not so and that the error had
actually directed the telescope to a
new comet.
And, stranger still, this new comet
was moving so rapidly that had Per-
rine directed his telescope to the spot
indicated at any other time but just
that morning he would not have. seen
1t and it might never have been dis
covered.
