ARE YOU TO LIVE IN ALASKA t Borne Requirements That Are Indispen able Miners Food Must Be Right. The universal article of diet in that country, depended upon and indispen table, is bread or biscuit. And to make the bread and biscuit, either in the camp or upon the trail, yeast can not be nsed lit must be baking now der; and the powder manufactured by the processes of the Royal Baking Pow der Company, miners and prospeotors have learned, is the only one which will stand in that peculiar climate of cold and dampness and raise the bread s and msouit satisiactoriiy. f These facta are very important for ' every one proposing to go to Alaska and the Yukon country to know, for ahould he be persuaded by some out fitter to take one of the cheap brands of baking powder it will oost just as much to transport it, and then when he opens it for use, after all his labor In packing it over the long- and diffi cult route, he will find a solid caked mass or a lot of spoiled powder, with no strength and useless. Such a mis take might lead to the most serious re sults. Alaska is no place in which to expermient In food, or try to econo . mizo with your stomach. For use in such a climate, and under the trying and fatiguing conditions of life and labor in that country, everything must be the best and moet useful, and above all it is imperative that all food sup plies shall have perfect keeping quali ties. It is absurd to oonvey over such difficult and expensive routes an artiole that will deteriorate in transit, or that will , be found when required for use to have lost a great part of ' its value. There is no better guide to follow . in thoaa mattara than rVirt alviu r( those who have gone through similar experience. Mr. McQuesten, who is called ."the father of Alaska," after an experience of years upon the trail, in the camp, and in. the use of every kind of supply, says: "We find in Alaska that the importance of proper kind of ; baking powder cannot be " overesti mated. A miner with a can of bad baking powder is almost helpless in Alaska. We have tried all sorts, and have been obliged to settle down to use nothing but the Royal. It is stronger and carries further, but above all things, it is the only powder that will , endure the' severe climatic changes of the arotlo region." It is for the same reason that the U. 6. government in its 'relief expeditions, and Peary, the famous arotio traveler, have curriod the, Royal Baking Powder exclusively. The Royal Baking Powder will not cake nor lose its strength either on board ship or in damp climates, and is the most highly concentrated and effi cient of leavening agents. - Hence it is indispensable to every Alaskan outfit. It can be had of the trading companies in Alaska, but should the miner pro cure his supplies before leaving, he should resist every attempt of the out fitter to palm off upon him any of the ' other brands " of baking powder, for they will spoil and prove the cause of great disappointment and trouble. In Delaware two brothers lived for 40 years within eight miles of each other, attended the same church and frequently traded with eaoh other with out knowing that they were related.

V Black and blue colors are not subject to fashions this season nor in any season. They hold their own and will not wash out, They are pretty solid colors, and but for the misery of wearlnsr them, might become fashionable. Some men take pride in wear- ins them as tokens ot their profession, as soldiers do their scars. But bruises, black or blue, or both, ought to have immediate attention, for under them may be a nerve hurt or a muscle badly wrenched. A black and blue bruise is a bad thing, not only from its tender soreness but the contused blood is prevention of reeular circulation, While sore spots like these will not wash out, there is something that will rub them out in no time, ana tnat is St. jacoDs uu.

To all women who are ill: It affords me great pleasure to tell you of the benefit I have derived from taking" Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I can hardly find words to express my gratitude for the boon given to suffering women in that excellent remedy. Before tak ing the Compound I was thin, sallow, and ucrvuun. - bled with leucor-. rhoea, and my men- etrual pe riods were very irregular. I tried three physicians and gradually grew worse. 1 About a year ago I was advised by a friend to try Mrs,. Pinkham's Sanative Wq and Vegetable Compound, which I did. After using three bottles of the Vege table Compound and one package of Sanative Wash, I am now enjoying bet ter health than I ever did, and attri bute the same to Mrs. Pinkham's won derful remedies. I cannot find words to express what a Godsend they have been to me. , " In some parts of China the young women wear their hair in a long single plait, with whioh is intertwined a bright scarlet thread.

Gus Wach line, the oondemned murderer of John D. Ledrick, expiated his crime on the gallows at 13:10 o'clock this afternoon The hanging of Wachline was made a good deal of a holiday affair in Hills boro. Not only were the residents of the town alive to the occasion, but there were many people in from the country, particularly from Iowa Hill, where the murdered man lived. In addition there was a trio of negro singers from Port land, a peripatetic fiddler patrolling the saloons in an effort to pick up a few dollars, and a phonographic outfit on the streets, with all the latest songs it a dime per tune. .The hanging brought business to town, and In' emu lation of city dailies the Independent jnd Argus, weekly papers, issued "ex tras" shortly after the execution. Wachline passed his last night on sarth much the same as he had since he was sentenced to death. He spent most of the time talking ,to the death watch, and went to sleep about 8:30 o clock this morning. He was up be tore 8 but refused any breakfast. Three hours before the execution took plaoe, the office of Sheriff Bradford was beseiged with a crowd of men, all arix ious to be close at hand when the prisoner was brought from his cell : to the scaffold. So great was the crush that at times it was difficult to move about. It was nearly 10 o'clock when Cap tain A. M. Collins appeared with the rope, and, walking out of the west win low on to the scaffold, he adjusted it to the crossbeam. In this he was assisted by Sheriff Bradford, Sheriff, Phy, of Union county, and ex-Sheriff 'Ford, of Washington county. After the noose was adjusted, the rope tested with weight of sand and the trap found to work without a hitch', the more active preparations to enforce, the death sen tence weie begun. It was 11:15 A. M. when Sheriff Bradford and the 12 jurors passed into the corridor of the jail through the door leading from the sheriff's office. Ordering the door of the cell opened, Sheriff Bradford said: f" Wachline, come out." The condemned man shuffled out from the cell, coatless, both hands in his trousers pockets, with an ugly, surly look upon his face. The sheriff told him he was about to read the death warrant, but this drew forth "no re mark. During the reading Wachline seemed to rivet his eyes on the floor, and when the ceremony was over walk ed baok into his cell, sat down on a chair, rested his head 'in his right hand and seemed absorbed in thought. He was then asked by one of his spiritual advisers if he intended to- make any statement on the soaffold. Wachline signified his intention Of doing so, and it was thought he would at the last moment make a full confession. Wachline was brought from his cell to the scaffold through the sheriff's office at 12:03 P. M., accompanied by Sheriff Bradford and Deputies C. E Deichman and J. H. Westcott. He was placed on the trap, facing north, and asked by the sheirff if he had any thing to say. The prisoner said yes," and then, in an almost inaudible tone, continued "All that I want to say is that the statement 1 have made is true. I am an innocent man. Let Jesus take me I am." This was a disappointment to the crowd, which had expected a confeS' sion. It was all he would say, and his legs, arms and hands were quickly pinioned, the black cap put over his head, and the noose adjusted about his neck. At a signal from Sheriff Brad' ford, the trap was sprung at 12:10 P M., and Wachline was hurled into eternity. Life was pronounced extinct in 14 minutes, and one minute later the body was out down and placed in the wait- ng coffin. The body was afterward removed to the undertaking establish ment of G. W. Patterson, where it was viewed by many men and women dur ing the day. ' , Wachline was hanged for the murder of John D. Ledrick, an aged German farmer, who lived three miles south of Cornelius. Bad Fire In Winnepeg. Minneapolis, Minn.. Feb. 7. A Journal special from Winnipeg says the Mclntyre business block in the heart of the' city was destroyed by fire this morning.

MILLS WILL BE BUILT To Cut Lumber for Boats Along; the Lakes in Alaska. The last obstacle has been removed in the matter of the establishment of the saw mills of tho Canadian Mill Com pany at the lakes on the lines of routes from Wrangel, Skagway and Dyea, to Dawson and the Klondike. The scheme is one of the most interesting yet launched in connection with the In- crease of trade to the north, and con templates saw mills at different points i 1 i . 1 ; . I l l 1 1 . i i . '- ii along toe cuuin ui taxes mat ue in uio direot path of all routes leading across the mountains from tidewater to Daw son. The prinoipal business of the saw mills will be to cut lumber for the boats to be used by prospectors and miners going down to the gold fields. When running to full capacity the mills will be able to turn out 80 completed boats daily. The first use that the saw mills will be put to, however, will be cutting lumber to build two stern-wheel steam ers, which are to ply on the lakes, Each will be 75 feet long, 18 feet beam and will draw 18 inches of water. Af ter the completion of the steamers the mills will be started cutting boat lum ber and the daily capacity will be 40, 000 feet. The mills will have electric light plants and run during the dark hours of the short days or on a' night shift if necessary. The boats will be delivered at the head of Lake Bennett, and the steamers can take long strings of loaded boats and tow them a dis tance of 72 miles. ' This will be much to the advantage of 'those owning the boats, as the peculiar topographical conditions are such that head winds prevail during the greater part of the eeason when laker navigation is open Each steamer will have a capacity of 125 passengers. The tow of the small boats will do away with the necessity of sails. Navigation opens on the lakes about April 15, and the mills are ex peoted to cut for the steamers early in March. A general freight business by barges will be conducted on the lakes, the' barges as well as .the boats to be towed by the steamers. ' Sate of Klondike Claims. One of the biggest deals on record in Klondike mining properties was con summatexl in Seattle last week. - Six claims, located on Bonanza, Sulphur, Dominion, All-Gold creeks and Frenoh gulch changed bands. The total amount involved in the transaction was between $150,000 and $200,000, No definite terms have been made pub' lie, both parties to the deal withhold' ing this information. . The purchasers are E. J. McCune, of Salt Lake, Utah, and Eugene J. Short, of Spokane. They are acting for them selves and for Spoakne and New York parties. Mr. McCune is a brother of A. W. McCune, the millionaire Mon tana and British Columbia mining man, owner of the Payne silver mine, in British Columbia. He Jb also asso' elated In a number of mining properties with Marcus Daly and W. Hoge, well known in mining circles in Butte and Anaconda. Chris Neebur and Carl Hunt are the sellers. Neebur is an Iowa boy, and Hunt mined for several years in the Kootenay and Oregon before going to Alaska. Neebur was four years in the Yukon country, -and Hunt spent three years there. Both were in the Klon dike early in the spring of 1897, before the stampede from the states. : They secured a number of valuable claims on the principal gold-bearing streams in the camp. After taking out a large quantity of gold from No. 9, above dis covery on Bonanza, " they sold a half interest in the olaim for $20,000. Nuggets of Klondike News. The Alaska Mining Record has the following "nuggets" anent Klondikers passing through Juneau: Frank Swanson, who is now in Ju neau, made tne ' first sluice box tnat was ever used in the Klondike district. This was on Gold Bottom oreek. He is a young man with a clear complexion and a clear record, and is not a million aire yet, but has a fain prospect of be coming one this year. He brought out about $20,000 in checks. ' Nigger Jim" came out with these ast Yukoners, but stayed at ' Skagway for a few days. He is said to be the whitest man in Dawson and hence his nickname. ' His real name is James Daugherty or in the aristocratic past D'Aughtre. He was in with AJex Mo- Donald on several recent deals and brings with him in checks about $160, 000. ... Sam Stanley, of Junea, has not done so badly in tne interior. He comes out with about $10,000 in gold, and has an interest in two of the finest claims on the Eldorado.- ' ; ' Fred Stevens sold out the Dawson opera house just before the big fire for, it is said, $20,000, but he did not bring all this out with him. George Miller had sold,' when he left Dawson, about 800 of his 1,000 head of sheep, and cleared about $20,000 out of the transaction. : George Apple had the biggest chance in his life to make a fortune when candles went up to $1 each, and . then became unpurchasable at any price. He made moulds for the making of tal low candles and there was plenty of tallow, but he gave his ingenuity to the bjnefit of the community. Still he need not fear the grocery bill for another 20 years. , It is not true that the correspondent of the Kansas City Star managed to marry "Nigger Jim," so the San Fran cisco Call will have to take back the charge that she is a young and beauti ful woman. The men who were invited and aided to leave Dawson . are the men who said they were fleeing from starvation. None of the- men "who worked while there have any kick coming. They all return with well-fed expressions and healthy wallets. . . , rHE TERRORS NSIffl REMARKABLE DISCOVERY OF AN AMERICAN MEDICO-CHEMIST, AND ITS GREAT VALUE TO HUMANITY. oi z O Q UJ o UJ z as o o J u Q UJ E Editor's Note.
