FROM ALASKA TO THE MINT. How Klondike Gold Finds Its Way Into the United States Treasury. Much has been written about the gold that comes from the Klondike, but nobody seems to have thought of inquiring as to what becomes of it after it has left the placer mines and the Yukon region. Of course the miners bring it into the United States by steamer, done up in canvas bags and all sorts of other packages. And the bulk of it is thus fetched to Seattle, which is a convenient port. In Seattle there is no trouble in converting the raw material into the ordinary currency of the realm. The merchants accept it, by weight, as readily as any other form of money, and the banks are always ready customers for gold. Most of the miners, laden with the yellow wealth, take it directly to the Seattle banks and deposit it, just as if it were dollars. They receive credit for it in the same way; but ordinarily the banks act simply as agents for the sale of the gold to the Government. Uncle Sam advertises to buy all gold that is offered, with no limit on the quantity. His purchasing office, nearest to Seattle, is at Helena, Mont. The banks, which eventually get all the gold accepted by the merchants, forward the stuff to the assay office at Helena and there it is received and paid for. The payment is made immediately on its receipt by Treasury checks. If you are a miner just returned from the Klondike with a bag of gold, you may convert it into everyday money at very short notice. The treasury check returned to you through the bank is for only 98 per cent of the estimated value of the dust and nuggets. That you get without any delay at all, beyond the time required for expressing the stuff to Helena and for the return of the cheek by mail. The balance due to you comes as soon as your gold has been subjected to the necessary assay. You have a right, under the law, to receive gold coin for your check, if you choose to ask for it. If you make no such demand the treasury will give you paper money; but the check is really payable in gold if you want it. The idea back of this is that any man has a right to offer raw gold to the United States Government and to receive gold coin in return. This legal obligation is fulfilled at considerable cost by the Government. Every coin contains its full face value in that metal, plus a percentage of copper added to harden it. The minting of it costs something, and for this nothing is charged. In other words, Uncle Sam gives a manufactured arti- Malaria Cured All Medicines Failed Except Hood’s Sarsaparilla Improved with the First Dose—Now Entirely Well. Malaria is caused by bad air, bad water, bad drainage, which make bad blood. Hood’s Sarsaparilla cures malaria by purifying the blood. Read this interesting statement: “I was confined to my bed with malaria. I could not take strong medicines, owing to my condition, and everything I took failed to help me. At last I decided to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla. After taking it a short time the malaria was entirely gone and I have never had it since. I began to improve with the very first dose of Hood’s Sarsaparilla. I am now strong and well.” Mrs. A. M. Woosley, Delano, California.

How the Name of a Prominent San Diegan Perplexed Travelers. In the smoking car of a Chicago, Burlington & Quincy suburban train, at Chicago a few weeks ago, two passengers were discussing the pronunciation of the word “Stough.” which appears over the door of a small station building not far from Hindsdale. They could not agree, so they submitted the question to Mervin Tabor, the Illinois State Insurance actuary, and a former school master. “Why,” said Mr. Tabor, “if r-o-u-g-h spell 'ruff' I should think s-t-o-u-g-h would spell 'stuff.'” “What do you think about it?” said one of the men to Mr. Watson, a board of trade man. “I should think it would be pronounced 'stoo.'” said Mr. Watson; “you know t-h-r-o-u-g-h spells 'throo.'” At this juncture Mr. Caldwell, the paper manufacturer, came in and the question was put to him. “Why,” said he, “anybody ought to know that. T-h-o-u-g-h; 'tho;' stough, 'stoo,' of course.” When L. W. Rood, of Aurora, came in he was asked for an opinion. “I should call it 'stoff'" said he; "c-o-u-g-h spells 'coff,' and I don’t see the Bank of Spain has refused to pay coupons due on April 1st except on the understanding that, if the bank is indemnified by the Government, then amount paid must be refunded. This is a virtual confession that those nearest the Government, in a financial war fear that it is even now insolvent. to the army it is demoralized and de-mated, and the want of money to fend and clothe it in a great war could not lower its morale. Every Spanish who thinks or who bears high responsibility knows that a nation like our United States could crush Spain utterly in a few months of warfare—captain her colonies, sweep her fleets and coerce from the sea, bombard coasts, blockade her ports and visit with the awful burden of an indemnity afterward. As between that cataclysm and the mob, a statesman as wise as gasta would prefer the mob. Better taunt at home, even if it shoots in the soldierly Don Carlos, wight in the end, regenerate Spain than the national suicide of entering contest in which defeat and ruin foredoomed. Even a mob seizing the Government could not thereby command their sources to make foreign war. While money private Spaniards had won then be hidden away. No European money-lender would loan a sans-cuille regime a single peseta, even if it could give security, but instead would pay for the payment of money loaned predecessor. Turn which ever they might the new rulers would come to the same peril of precipice and that warns back the Sagasta Government. And they would, besides, raise their newly gained power by a reckless approach to it. There is then no likelihood, as believe, of any overt act on the parish Spain itself. And if we commit no peace is assured.[Chronicle.] been subjected to the necessary assay. You have a right, under the law, to receive gold coin for your check, if you choose to ask for it. If you make no such demand the treasury will give you paper money; but the check is really payable in gold if you want it. The idea back of this is that any man has a right to offer raw gold to the United States Government, and to receive gold coin in return. This legal obligation is fulfilled at considerable cost by the Government. Every coin contains its full face value in that metal, plus a percentage of copper added to harden it. The minting of it costs something, and for this nothing is charged. In other words, Uncle Sam gives a manufactured article of money in return for raw material. Furthermore, it must be considered that gold pieces suffer appreciable loss by abrasion while in circulation. Even gold coins in bags at the Treasury lose something of their value by being jostled about. This is a dead loss to the Government, which protects itself only by fixing a "limit of tolerance," as it is called. When more than a certain fraction of a gold piece has been lost by abrasion, it is accepted only by weight. It is a rather interesting fact that a good deal of gold from Australia is now coming into this country by way of San Francisco. It goes directly to the mint in that city, and is there converted into coin. But whatsoever the source of the raw gold, the treatment it receives on reaching the mint or assay office is the same. Each lot of Klondike dust, with its sprinkling of tiny nuggets, is put into a closed vessel called a crucible. The crucible is placed in a furnace, and when the metal is melted it is poured into a mould, which forms it into a brick called a "bar." While in the crucible the molten yellow stuff is stirred constantly and thoroughly, so that all the materials it contains may be distributed equally through the bar. For, of course, the raw gold is apt to be combined with more or less of silver, copper and even lead. The bar, when cool, is sent to the weighing room, where the assayer chips from it a very small scrap, and this scrap is put through an elaborate process, for the purpose of determining exactly how much gold it contains. Eventually it is reduced to a bit of absolutely pure gold, and the weight of this bit gives to the assayer his data for reckoning the exact value of the bar. On this reckoning the payment check is made out. The gold brick, being now the property of Uncle Sam, is subjected to a chemical treatment, by which the silver and other impurities are separated from it, and the yellow metal is obtained in a perfectly pure state. In this state it looks more like red gravel than anything else, and nobody would think of stopping by the wayside to pick up a handful of such stuff. The "red gravel" is pressed by hydraulic power into big cakes, resembling angel-food cakes in shape, but much bigger. These cakes are worth about $80,000 apiece. Next the material of which the cakes are made is melted again in crucibles, with the addition of 10 per cent of copper, and the stuff is cast in bars for coining. Each bar is sliced by a machine into several strips, which are put under a powerful roller and squeezed to just the required thickness for the coins. Then the strips are passed beneath a punch, which cuts out of them the blanks for the gold pieces that are to be used. Various mechanical processes requiring no detailed description here, are gone through incidentally, but at length the coin blanks are put one by one in a stamping machine, which gives to "Why," said Mr. Tabor, "if r-o-u-g-h spell 'ruff' I should think s-t-o-u-g-h would spell 'stuff.'"

Rood, of Aurora, came in he was asked for an opinion. "I should call it 'stoff.'" said he; "c-o-u-g-h spells 'coff,' and I don't see how s-t-o-u-g-h can spell anything but 'stoff.'" At this a gray-haired man with a light plug hat and the air of a capitalist turned around in his seat and, with the intrepidity of one who speaks from absolute knowledge, said: "It is pronounced with the sound of ow—'stow.'" Well," said one of the parties of the controversy, "what confounded fool gave such an infernal name to a town, anyway?" "It was named after me." said the gray-haired man; "I laid out the town, my name is Stough." For several minutes, the clickety-click of the car wheels was the only sound that broke the embarassing stillness. WATER. A Scientific Disquisition on How Much to Drink. When it is considered that the body is made up largely of water, it can readily be understood how important to health is a constant supply of this fluid. Many people have a notion that the drinking of water in any amount beyond that actually necessary to quench the thirst is injurious, and acting on this belief they endeavor to drink as little as possible. The notion however, is wide of truth. Drinking freely of pure water is a most efficacious means, not only of preserving health, but often of restoring it when failing. All the tissues of the body need water, and water in abundance is necessary also for the proper performance of every vital function. Cleanliness of the tissues within the body is as necessary to health and comfort as cleanliness of the skin, and water tends to insure the one as truly as it does the other. It dissolves the waste material, which would otherwise collect in the body, and removes it in the various excretions. These waste materials are often actual poisons, and many a headache, many sleepless nights and listless days and many attacks of the "blues" are due solely to the circulation of these waste materials, which cannot be got rid of because of an insufficient supply of water. Water is accused of making fat, and people with a tendency to corpulency avoid it for that reason. But this is not strictly true. It does un doubtedly often increase the weight, but it does so because it improves the digestion and therefore more of the food eaten is utilized and turned into fat and flesh. But excessive fat, what we call corpulence, is not a sign of health, but of faulty digestion and assimilation, and systematic water drinking is often employed as a means of reducing the superfluous fat—which it sometimes does with astonishing rapidity. I desire to attest to the merits of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as one "Why," said Mr. Tabor, "if r-o-u-g-h spell 'ruff' I should think s-t-o-u-g-h would spell 'stuff.'"

Among those who hold that the affair of the Maine would not necessarily lead to war even if the ship were known to have been willfully destroyed by Spaniards acting unofficially, there is some fear that Spain herself may be forced to take a hostile attitude. The argument is that Sagasta, like Louis Napoleon, may find in a foreign war his only refuge and that of the dynasty from the assaults of the mob; or, on the other hand, that the mob, by getting control of the government may start the trouble itself. But there seems to be no real parallel between the France of 1870 and the Spain of to-day, nor in the conditions of popular excitement then and now. In 1870 France was one of the richest countries in Europe, perhaps, with the exception of England, the very richest. So far as it knew it had a splendid and invincible army which could capture Berlin as easily as did the legions of Jena, Austenlitz and Friedland. History shows that Napoleon confronted Germany with a light heart. Having, as he thought, money enough and men enough at his back, he felt entirely safe in his policy of eclipsing discontent at home with glory abroad. But the rulers of Spain can have no such feeling when the question of war with the United States confronts them. Instead of being rich Spain is hopelessly and helplessly poor. No loans are practicable for the credit of the country is exhausted. The imminence of bankruptcy is shown in the fact that It is, or should be, the highest all every merchant to please his customers and that the wide-awake drug firm Meyers and Eshleman Sterling, Ill., doing so, is proven by the follow-up from Mr. Eshleman: "In my six years' experience in the drug business I have never seen sold or tried a medicine that gave as good satisfaction Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera Diarrhoea Remedy."

TO NARROW EDUCATION. Professor Norton Illustrates With a Story on Biology. Charles Eliot Norton, professor of arts at Harvard university, whom Matthew Arnold described as the "only gentleman in America," objects most heartily to undergraduate specializing. He believes in the English university training, which gives a man a broad education and a liberal equipment for citizenship which makes of him a cultivated gentleman. In one of his lecture courses Professor Norton told of a student with whom he had talked. The young man was a sophomore; his specialty, biology. He described with great enthusiasm the character of his work and lamented the fact that he had been unable through the regulations of the faculty, to take more biology in his freshman year. As a junior and a senior he intended to elect it exclusively, he said. The young man's enthusiasm was rather more saddening than inspiring to the professor. Four years' devotion to a single subject was crushing to his ideals of education. So he asked: "Don't you think that your career in college would eventually be more satisfactory to yourself and of more profit to others if you were to take less of biology and acquaint yourself a little with literature and history and the arts?" The sophomore thought he was destined for biology. For some time Professor Norton was silent Then he said rather absently: "Do you confine yourself to any particular branch of biology?" The face of the student brightened. It was evident that he did. To the professor there was something pathetic as well as humorous in the reply that came quickly: "Oh, yes. My work is entirely devoted to a study of the white ant's intestines."—Exchange. HAD NO "SCOLDING LOCKS." Tried to Oblige a Friend, but She Got Angry About It.

The men under Copaz were defeated without their firing a shot, the Cubans charging from the front and rear. The men were literally cut to pieces. They defended themselves with the butts of their carbines. The Cubans secured eighty cavalry horses, with equipments, one hundred carbines and ammunition. After the cavalry rout they were forced to retreat, as the Spanish army 4000 strong came into action. Retreating for more than a mile, the Cubans made a stand behind rocks and checked the advance of Castellano's troops until nightfall. In the night the Cuban wounded were sent to the rear and earthworks thrown up that would each protect halt a dozen rebels. The troops moved to higher ground and everything possible done to make fortifications. The battle of the second day opened with an attempt of the Spanish to take a knoll of ground holding twenty men. After several ineffectual attempts one of the Krupp guns was used and the position was abandoned for one higher. During the shelling of the small fortifications the Cubans twice caused the piece to be drawn out of rifle range. There was no attempt made to advance by the Spaniards on the 22nd. They kept up a continuous fire, shooting whole volleys whenever a Cuban showed his head. Twice on the third day General Castellanos attempted to advance. On both occasions his troops were driven back. On the 24th, the fourth day of the fight, he suffered the loss of more than 100 killed and withdrew, leaving his dead upon the field. He retreated to Puerto Principe and announced that he had defeated a force of 3000 Cubans. The dead were buried by General Reclos' troops. His own loss was 78 killed and more than a hundred wounded.

"What do you mean?" asked her friend in a surprised tone. "Did you never hear of scolding locks? They are the short ends of your hair that are always flying loose. They bother one so much, but side combs keep them in order, besides being very becoming ornaments." "So you think I have scolding locks—then I must be a soild.

A common bill of fare in thousands of houses at noon will be: Soup, called caldo, or broth; rice, or macaroni, known as so pa; baked and stuffed tomatoes and artichokea, a most delicious vegetable; two kinds of meat, often chicken and a roast, or chops and steaks; fried potatoes, salad, beans, which always appear; fruit and several kinds of sweets and then coffee.

New York, March 10.—The Cuban Junta has received by messenger the official report of General Recio, who commanded the Cuban forces at the battle of Najasa on February 21st to 24th. The details of the battle show that while the Cubans were outnumbered four to one for four days they held their position and caused the Spanish troops to retreat, leaving 293 dead men upon the field. On the morning of February 21st, while more than ten miles from Najasa, the vanguard of the Spanish army, composed of guerrillas, under Lieutenant Perojo, was attacked at a turn in the road. The Cuban cavalry, under Brigadier Branlio Pena, numbered seventy men. The vanguard comprised fifty men. Of the fifty three escaped and forty-seven were killed. The Cubans lost fourteen men. The Spanish cavalry under Major Copaz was attacked by the Cuban cavalry, 500 strong. Sale Under Foreclosure of Mechanic's Lien. In the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California.

The story of this woman is the every day history of thousands who are suffering as she did; who can be cured as she was; who will thank her for showing them the way to good health. The most remarkable thing about Mrs. Nellie J. Lord, of Strafford Corner, N. H., is that she is alive to-day. No one, perhaps, is more surprised at this than Mrs. Lord herself. She looks back at the day when she stood on the verge of death and shudders. She looks ahead at life of happiness with her children, her husband and her home with a joy that only a mother can realize. Mrs. Lord is the mother of three children, two of whom are twins; until the twins come nothing marred the joy of her life. Then she was attacked with heart failure and for a year was unable to attend to the ordinary duties of the home. In describing her own experience Mrs. Lord says: "I had heart failure so bad I was often thought to be dead." With this I had neuralgia of the stomach no bad it was necessary to give me morphine to deaden the pain. Sometimes the doctors gave me temporary relief, but in the end it seemed as if my suffering was multiplied. Medicine did me no good and was but an aggravation. "I was so thin my nearest friends failed to recognize me." No one thought I would live. "I was in despair and thought that my days were numbered. My mother brought me Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and the first box made me feel better. I continued the treatment and to-day I am well. "When I commenced to take the pills I weighed 120 pounds; now I weigh 146 and feel that my recovery is permanent." "I owe my happiness and my health to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. My husband was benefited by them. I have recommended them to many of my friends and will be glad if any word of mine will direct others to the road of good health." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People have cured many cases of almost similar nature. The vital elements in Mrs. Lord's blood were deficient. The haemoglobin was exhausted. She was unfit for the strain she was compelled to undergo. Her nervous system was shattered and her vitality dropped below the danger point. A collapse was inevitable. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured her by supplying the lacking constituents of health by filling the veins with blood rich in the requisite element of life. The heart resumed its normal action; the nervous system was restored to a state of harmony, and the neuralgic affection disappeared. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by druggists everywhere, who believe them to be one of the most efficacious medicines the century has produced. A. FREISE, ...KEEPS THE FINEST OF...
