RED TOP MINE
 LOOKING G00D;
 DISTRICT BUSY
Development Work Progress ing on Bear River in
 Hyder-Stewart Region.

That the development work on the Red Top Group of claims on the Bear River is progressing amazingly well and that the whole future ol the mines and district in the vicin ity of Stewart and Hyder looks prom isirg is the word brought to the city by J. J. Connors who returned last night from that section of the coun try.
 Mir. Connors, in company with Mrs Connors and James J. Connors, Jr made the trip from Stewart to the Red Top group distance of twenty one miles. The last part of the trip was over trails and almost straight up but they all made 1t in safety. At the Red Top, which is being financed by group of Juneau men, they found that the two tun nels. one driving for copper ledge and the ether toward a galena ledge, were progressing favorably and il was quite certain that the lodges would be struck by October 15.
 Gustav Sieffert. promoter of the company, was on the ground in charge of a crew of twelve men in the tunnel work. Although a serious freshet in the whole district had washed out bridges on both the Sal mon and Bear Rivers and trails all through the vicinity so that for two weeks it was difficult to get supplies to the mines, the work was going ahead on schedule.
 MT. Connors found that the Algon ican Development Company was do ing considerable work on the George Group of claims on the Bear River near the Red Top. The company has twenty men building trails thai will be used in bringing in supplies Premier Working
 The Premier Mine. the greatest mine in the district, is working 25t men in various capacities. Some are on trail work, some are on construc tion and some are mining ore tha will be freighted to Hyder in the winter for shipment.
 While the two towns are\ rather quiet right now 1t is because all the men are in the hills, either working the various claims or prospecting Mir Connors said that business ir both places is good. There was nc boom but steady growth which ht expects to see continue

LEECH AS WEATHER PROPHET
Those Familiar With Small Creatures
Habits Can ForeteIl Changes
That Are at Hand.

An excellent weather prophet can
be made by placing leech in glass
Jar of water.
If the weather Is to continue fine
the leech lies mOtiOnless at the bot
tom of the jar, and rolled together
In a spiral form. If it is to rain,
either before or after noon. it will be
found to have crept up to the top of
its lodging, where 1t will remain till
the weather is settled.
If we are to have wind, the poor
prisoner gallops through his limpid
habitation with amazing swiftness,
and seldom rests till it begins to blow
hard.
If a remarkable storm of thunder
and rain is to succeed, the leech, for
some days before, lodges almost con-
tinually without water, and gives it
self up to violent throeS and cOnvul-
sive-like motions. In frost, as In clear
summer weather, it lies constantly at
the bottom and in snow, as in rainy
weather, it pitches its dwelling on the
very mouth of the jar.

HAVE TO PURCHASE BRIDES
santali Indian Bridegroom Must Lay
Up Money Before He Can As
pire to a Wife.

The Santali Indians must literally
purchase their brides. They pay a
sum of money to the girls parents
usually about 100 dupees-and, in ad.
dition, they present the mother and
the female relatives with new saris
or shawls.
Should the bridegroom choose o
widow for his wife, she will only cost
half the sum mentioned. The reason
why the Santali Indians hold widows
in less regard than unmarried females
is because they assert that in the
next world man and wife are reunited,
hence a widow who marries again Is
only "lent' to her second husband
When young man courts a girl who
does not favor his suit, he adopts an,

lady and imprints his mark on her
forehead. Then he may claim her as
his wife.

0verdoses of Sugar Cause
of Throat Disturbances Is
Statement of Medical Man

Singers frequently complain of ca
tarrh and nearly always blame the
American climate for their trouble.
Do the singers, however, sufficiently
consider the food they eat? We have
been informed by a medical expert,
whom we respect as an authority, that
most Of the throat disturbances in the
United States are caused by Overdoses
Of sugar. He says he has proved his
statement on number of vocalists Of
various temperaments and physical
characteristics by inducing them to
eat excessively Of sugar and sweet diet
late in the evening and then to OBJ
serve most carefully the condition of
their threats and tongues in the morn
ing. After he had brought on ca
tarrhal troubles through the abuse Of
sugar he invariably restored the vocal
chords to their normal condition by
putting his patients on a salt diet and
prohibiting the sugar diet.
We are but quoting doctors con-
versation and we do not for moment
pose as medical experts ourselves.
We believe, however, that the doc
tors advice should at least receive
careful consideration.-Exch

Cooling Foods for Hot DAYS.

During the hot weather succulent
vegetables, frozen desserts and cooling
beverages appeal to the appetite rath-

Small green onions, cooked tops and

makes dainty and pretty dish.
When making salad of any kind of

Cucumbers are one Of the most re-

many cooks of soaking them in salt
water is most undesirable as the wilt

Historic Pens Preserved
In a Showcase in French
Foreign Office Museum

In the French foreign office there
Is small collection of historic pens
preserved in a showcase. These range
from the pen with which Bismarck
and Jules Favre signed the armistice
at Versailles January %, 1871, to that
with which Muley Hafid signed the
treaty in March 80, 1912, giving the
French a prOtectorate over Morocco
The collection also includes the pen
used by President Mckinley and NJ
Cambon when they arranged the pre-
liminaries of peace between Spain and
the United States, and the one with
which Gambetta wrote announcing the
resignation Of '1e Grand Ministere."
In the Berlin museum may be seen
two historic pens-that with which
Queen Louise Of Prussia signed her
last will and testament, side by side
with the pen used by William I of
Prussia in his famous letter to Queen
Augusta, informing her of the victory
of Sedan.
