Hultbergg, assignee for the Swedish Evangelical Mis sion Covenant of America, recov er from the White Star Mining Company, of Illinois, Dr. Claca W, Johnson and Peter II. Anderson, the claun in dispute and proceeds to the amount of $263,686. The arbitrators were Hiram T. Gilbert and A. M. Pence, of Chi cago, and David P. Lane, of Berk ley, Cal. The award is 'signed by Mr. Gilbert and Mr. Lane, Mr. Pence dissenting from their opin ion. Peter II. Anderson, formerly a missionary for the covenant at Chinik, Aluska, is directed to pay over immediately to Mr. Ilultbergg the sum of $232,200 and the White Star Mining Company of Illinois and Dr. Johnson are directed to surrender to Mr. Ilultbergg the "No. 9" nine and the additional sum of $20,000, the net value of the output of the mine in 1903, after it was transferred to the White Star Mining Company of Illinois. Minor awards of $500, $1236 and $3750 were made. Th e unusual arbitration case grew out of Alaskan gold mines staked out by covenant mission aries in 1898. Mr. Ilultbergg staked the first claim for his society and when he returned to the states Mr. Ander son and others continued the work. They declared, however, that the mines were their property, not the mission society's. Not wishing to have the church organization ap pear an a litigant in court, private arbitration was decided on, the hearings beginning in secret on February 28. Two fA the disputed claims were at one time held by Eskimos and this necessitated the presence in Chicago of Gabriel and Constan tine Uparaczuck, natives of Alaska. The ownership of mine No. 9 was the only one passed upon by the ar bitrators.

A tele gram from Grand Duke Boris to Grand Duke Vladimir, dated at Llao Tang yesterday, gives Grand Duke Cyril's account of his escape from death In the disaster to the Petropavlovsk.

He waa then swept away by an Immense wave and sank to a considerable depth, but succeeded In regaining the surface.

Those who have ever felt its keen, cutting pains, or witnessed the intense) uffering of others, know that Rheumatism is torture, and that it is right ly called "The King of Pain." . All do not suffer alike. Some are suddenly seized with the most excrucia ting pains, and it seems every muscle and joint in the body was being torn asunder. Others feci only occasional slight pains for weeks or months, when a sudden change in the weather of exposure to damp, chilly winds or night air brings on a fierce attack, lasting for days perhaps, and leaving the pa tient with a weakened constitution or crippled and deformed for all time. An acid, polluted condition of the blood is the cause of every form and variety of Rheumatism, Muscular, Articular, Acute, Chronic, Inflammatory and Sciatic, and the blood must be purged and purified before there is aa end to your aches and pains. External applications, the use of liniments and plasters, do much toward temporary relief , butsuch treatment does not reach the real cause or cleanse the diseased blood ; but S. S. S., the greatest of all blood purifiers and tonics, does cure Rheumatism by antidoting and neutraliz ing the poisonous acids and building up the weak and sluggish blood. It is sale and rel table in all forms of Rheumatism. It makes the old acid blood rich, and the pain-tortured mus cles and joints are relieved, the shattered nerves are made strong, and the entire system is invigorated and toned uo bv the use of this srreat vegetable remedv ' If you have Rheumatism, write us, and our physicians will furnish with out charge any information desired, and we will mail free our book on Rheumatism.

"What is the sense of these con stant bombardments if they are not feints made in order to entice the Russian ships out! The theories that the Petropavlovsk struck her own mines, or that the Japanese planted a mine during a night are untenable and. we know that the Japanese have sub marines. "A United States naval officer landed at the wrong dock, appar ently an unused wharf, in a Japan ese town before the war and saw a submarine surrounded on three sides by high fences so that it was visable only from the water side. Before he had an opportunity to examine it Japanese soldiers on guard drove him away with fierce threats. They seemed highly indig nant that he should have caught sight of the boat at all,". Fita Accepts Challenge. New York, April 15. A match probably will be arranged within a few days between Robert Fitzsim mons and Kid McCoy, for a six round battle before one of the Phil adelphia clubs. Fitzsimmons has acepted the numerous challenges recently presented by McCoy's man agers and has declared his readiness for six rounds within six week's time at catch weights, or a bout of 20 or 25 rounds for the middle weight championship within two months. Strike Comes to End. New York, April 15. A strike inaugurated two weeks ago by the Elevator Constructors' Union has ended in the acceptance of an ar bitration plan and the men have returned to work.

Special dis patches to the International Mer cantile Agency report a continu ance of favorable trade conditions in most centers of the country. Un seasonable weather is still restrict ing business in certain parts of the south and west.

The moth and beetle wing about The garden ways of other days; Above the hills a fiery ehout Of gold, the day dies slowly out, Like some wild blast a huntsman blows; And J'er the hills my fancy goes, Following the sunset's golden call. Unto a vlne.hung garden wall. Whew she awaits me In the gloom. Between the lily and the rose, With " arms and lips of warm per fume The drem of love my fancy knows. The glow-worm and the firefly glow Among the ways of bygone days; A golden shaft shot from a bow Of silver, star and moon swing low Above the hills where twilight lies; ' And o'er the hills my longing files, Following the star'a far, arrowed gold, Unto a gate, where as of old. She waits amid the rose and rue. With star.brlght hair and night-dark eyes. The dream, to whom my heart la true, My dream of love that never dies. In the April Reader Mapa.lne A THOUGHTFUL MAN. M.M.
