XOT TS AMERICAN TERRITORY.
Evidence Discovered. "Which Shows
Mount Baiter Mines in Canada.
VANCOUVER, B. C, Oct 3. Another
-dispute regarding the international boun
lary has arisen. Surveyor T. J. Deane
claims to have discovered evidence to
establish the claim that the Mount Baker
mines are in Canadian and not in Ameri
can territory. T. Mathews, a. well-known

In his investigations. Mathews has just
returned from the Mount Baker district
He says that it has been discovered that
the boundary line between Canada and
he "United States in that district Is two
miles south of the line that has been
recognized by (miners during the last few
"years. Several of the richest mining prop
erties at present owned and worked by
.Americap, companies on supposed Ameri
can soil will be 4 found to be within the
limits of British Columbia. The Ameri
can mlneowners (have heard of Deane's
opinion and are naturally not pleased,
A packtraln with, supplies for the American-owned
mines, containing provisions
purchased at ChllUwack, has been seized
by the American customs officers.
SEATTLE, "Wash., Oct 3. A special to
the Times from Vancouver, B. C, says:
The trouble at Mount Baker over the
boundary line dispute has almost reached
an international crisis. Yesterday a pack
train of goods, on the way Irom Chilll
"wack to Mount Baker, for American
owned mines, was seized by the American
customs authorities, on the ground that
the goods had gone across the boundary
line Into the States.
Deane, the Provincial Surveyor, who IB
fixing the boundary line, says that Can
ada will derive a stretch of new land two
allies wide by the moving- of the line back
to where it -was originally and should now
be located. Valuable American mines ore
included in this strip.

IN THE PORCUPINE DISTRICT.
Results of Occupation of Territory
by Canadian Officials.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct.3. A special from
Tacoma to the Chicago Times says:
J. H. Cobb has reached Juneau from the
Porcupine district with news of the first
results of the occupation of the disputed
territory by Canadian officers. Cobb sas
several dozen American miners have al
ready left and others are going. They
prefer to leave rather than go through
the formality and expense of attempting
to secure title to their claims from the
Canadian authorities. Gold Commissioner
Martin and other Canadian ofilclels have
installed themselves for the Winter in
buildings on the so-called international
line half a mile north of Porcupine City.
Martin, posted notices that all claims le
gally staked by Americans wouia be con
firmed, and set a date for hearings. To.
his surprise, not a single claim was pre
cepted for confirmation, because of the
exodus of miners holding claims oh Boul
der and Nugget Creeks. These abandoned
claims -will now revert to Canadians.

sacrifice to his personal ambitions or interests. He was not only an active aha able coun
selor at tho bar, but he was UkewTsc a writer -of ability, having been the editor, wltn his
brother, the founder, of the Vancouver Independent In 1S7B Mr. Daniels was always rec
ognized politically and otherwise as a wiso, counselor and leader amonlp hi associates. In

PLEAO GUILTY, BUT ACQUITTED.
Case of Indian Thongrht to Have
Caused Death of Boy "Witch."
VANCOUVER, B. C, Oct. 3. The whole
system of witchery and kindred 'prac
tices, as carried on by the Indians of the
North, was illustrated here today by the
trial of the murder charge against the
'Indian Descultah, in the Fall assizes. Sev
eral of the witnesses were Indians, and
they told of all the details of the alleged
'killing of an Indian boy whom the In
dians believed to be a witch. The al
leged "murder took place in 1897 at the In
dian village of Pelutca, near Glenora. An
Indian named Naasdlck, who was the
head of the house of five, was sick, and
he blamed the "boy for bewitching him.
When the old man died he charged Des
cultah to kill the boy, as- he had caused
his death. After that the boy disap
peared,! and Descultah was located only a
few months ago. When Descultah was
called upon to plead at the opening of the
assizes here, his plea of guilty was not
received by the rTesld'ng Judge. The Jury
acquitted Descultah.. The story was told
in picturesque style'by the Indians, whose
home is on the Northern coast, and who
could not understand why they Were
brought, down to Vancouver to this trial.

ASTORIA, Oct. 3. The salmon recently
brought down from the Alaska Fisher

unsold, which It Is holding tot an advacne
in price.
There were more flshboas" put last
night around the mouth of the river than
there has been since the opening of the
Fall season. They went out because they
had learned that the traps In Baker's Bay
were beginning to make good catches.
They did quite well, and the trapmen did
better than before.

DAIRYING rN GREAT FAVOR.
Corvnllls Farmers Putting: In. Silos
and Improving Herds.
CORVALL.IS, Or., Oct. 3. Farmers . in
the vicinity of Corvallls are turning their
attention In a considerable degree toward
dairying. About all of them will continue
their farming operations, but dalrjlng Is
to be engaged In as an adjunct, and in
some cases given entire attention. The
movement is best shown by the large
number of silos recently built or in pro
cess of construction. Of the latter there
are three, one by J. I. Applegate, an
other for the Woodcock dairy, and a third
by Gus Harding. The latter will build
two morejn the Spring. A fourth, with
a capacity of 110 tons, has been com
pleted for Walter Taylor, and it now
houses 0 tons of corn ensilage. In ad
dition to these, several others have been
built within a few miles of town since
last Spring. The entire number would
probably reach a dozen. Many farmers
are also keeping a sharp lookout for
high-class dairy cows, with a view to
Improving their herds ih this particular.
The shortened crop Is not wholly re
sponsible for the movement, which be
gan In a measure last season. It is chief
ly due, perhaps, to the establishment of
a creamery In this city. The butter prod
uct from the creamery is nearly all sold
abroad. This consumes a large part of
the mdlk product of the vicinity, and cre
ates a scarcity of butter In the local mar
ket. Better prices resUlt, and those en
gaged In dairying are receiving good re
turns for their efforts.
Hops Bring- 14 1-2 Cents Per Pound.
OREGON CITY, Or., Oct. 3. The news
came from Marquam today that J. A.
and Thomas Ridings had sold about 20,
000 pounds of hops to H. J. Miller, of Au
rora, for 14 cents per pound. A con
siderable number of growers are holding
for an advance to 20 cents per pound,
while others are awaiting reports on hop
samples sent East and to London, Eng
land. The excellent quality of hops this
season gives growers a hope of eventu
ally getting top prices, although some are
avoiding the risk of holding while good
prices prevail, hellevlng It safer to profit
by the experience of past years.

Sufferers from this horrible malady
nearly always inherit it not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makesits ap
pearance or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood every vestage
of it driven out. This S. S. S. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer beginsofteninasmallway,as the
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows :
A siaalt pimple came on my Jaw about as inch
below the ear on the left side of my face. It gave
me no pain or inconven
elncc, and I should have
forgotten about it had it
not begun to Inflame and
Itch; it would bleed a
little, then scab over, but
would not heal. This
continued for sometime,
when my Jaw began to
swell, becoming very
painful. The Cancer be
gan to eat and spread,
until it was aa large as a
half dollar.whenl heard '
of S. S. S. and determln- '
cd to give It a fair trial,
and it was lemarlcable
what a wonderful effect
it had from the very beginning : the core began ta
