Spend Seven Days in Wilder- ness Without a Morsel Special Dispatch to The Gall. SEATTLE, Dec. 17.—Martin O'Connor, formerly of Seattle, and two comrades have just reached Dawson after a nerve- racking experience in the Tanana coun- try. For seven days the three men were lost in the wildernes and their only food during that entire time was a few to flavor it. When dying of starvation, they chanced upon a supply of food cached by some prospector, and were saved. Eventually they reached Kagle and finally Dawson. ! O'Connor and his companions spent the summer prosp ng on Chenoa 1iver, at the head of tne Tanana. The burning of their cabin one day while they were at work threw them into the predicament of having to subsist for a week.on a_small bucket of flour, the only thing saved from the flames. The three set out for Bagle City over the Tanana divide. After three days’ hard travel they found they had lost the trail. For three more days they retraced their steps, until they came to the point from which they had started. They were al- most famishe The next morning they started dué e v their compass. They were then on some creek whose name ! they did not know, and they followed it | for four hours, and came to a cabin. They | searched this thoroughly for food, but did a morsel. O'Connor's two com- | panions lay down, almost dead from star- | vation. O’Connor continued his search | about the place and was rewarded by | finding a cache near by. In it were cantel | | fruits, beef extract and vegetables. He | summoned the others and they soon were | satisfying their hunger. The party remained at the cache three days and fights, eating and resting after their extraordinary toils and trials. They then continued toward Eagle. After leav- ing the cache they saw no one on the stream. The creek for its entire length was deserted, and O'Connor and his part- | ners do not kno t whose food it was that saved their lives. | Leaving this creek the party came to | another, and ten hours later came upon a | prospector in a tent. This man told them he was on Blate Creek, three days’ travel | | from Eagle. The party pushed on to Eagle | reaching that camp in three days. { AUGUST E.

FARMERS PLAN GREAT COYOTE HUNT Hope to Drive T';o:sands of the Ma- rauders Into a Pen and Kill Them. TACOMA, Dec. 17—Farmers of Walla | Walla and Umatilla counties, in Oregon, | are getting ready for the greatest coyote | | hunt ever held in the Northwest. It will | | start about Christmas time and last a | week. Coyotes have multiplied rapidly of late and are causing immense trouble to sheep men and ranchers who keep small | stock and poultry. It is proposed to build | | a “pen” at Echo, a_small station on the | line of the Oregon Railway and Naviga- | tion Company. of men to traverse the country in o long lire and drive the prairie wolves to- gether near this inclosure.

The young artist’s work has created a favorable im- pression with all who have seen the model. Mr. Aitken prepared three pieces for submission to the committee, and at the sculptor’s suggestion the works were not seht to San Jose, as tHelr size and deli- cate workmanship made transportation dangerous. The committee, = therefore, deemed a visit to the sculpter’'s studio ad- visable, and last week went to San Fran- cisco. It found, besides the design for the monument and surroundings, a life-sizc l r } McKinley is to rise-eight feet in height. The model shows the President standing erect with silk hat carried at his side, his Prince Albert buttoned and overcoat unbuttoned and hanging in natural folds. His right hand rests at his side. The pose is characteristic. and the drawing tech- nically correct, the expression winning and gentle, just as the great original's was in life. There is an entire absence of trickery in the composition, nothing in the direction of striving after effects at the expense of truthfulness. After the committee had viewed ti® de- signs in San Francisco, it was decided to have Aitken send his model to this city, which was done. The people of Santa Clara County have raised upward of $15,000 for the proposed memorials, and it is the intention to pro- ceed rapidly with the work. o portrait bust of the President, and a minjature full figure. The portrait bust is so excellent that upon its examination one of the committee gave an order to Mr. Aiitken for a bronze on the buyer’s personal account. This portrait bust is a wonderfully life- like production. The well remembered features of the President are molded in the clay with a faithfulness rarely seen in portrait work of this character. In the model for the statue the same life and expression are found. The face, while full of the quiet dignity so characteristic of the man, bears a smile, or at least a well defined suspicion of one, which lights it up and supplies that undefinable quality known, for want of a beiter word, as vitality.

Y3 THE COURT Daily Disciplining of Law- yers Continues in Alturas. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. ALTURAS, Dec. 17.—Any one drifting into the Superior Court of Modoc County these days might be at a loss to deter- mine whether a murder trial or a brawl were in progress. So bitter has the en- mity between prosecution and defense be- come that there is an almost\ constant exchange of perscnalities. Attorney Ra- ker, whose repartee occasionally lacks ele- ments of refinement, referred to Assist- ant Attorney General Post this after- noon as a skunk: or, to be more ac- curate, he declared that in his opinion the State's representative ‘‘is no better than into the pen and easily slaughtered. The coyote drive has been a familiar sport during recent years, a number hav- | | ing been held with varying results. Wal- | la Walla will supply 100 men to join next | | week’s hunt, Pendleton will send 100 and | | smaller towns will be represented in pro- | portion. Some estimate that not less than ’10.0021 coyotes can be rounded up and’ | killed. | B {LAST TRIBUTE PAID } TO CHILDREN’S FRIEND Funeral of George M.

Murphy, late proprietor of the | St. James Hotel, who died suddenly of | | noon and was attended by a large num- | ber of friends, both of this city and San| Francisco. Rev.

Simas testi- fled that he was in Lookeut two days while aged Calvin Hall and the four other alleged thieves were in jail. At that time Justice of the Peace Myers told him that he was afraid the prisoners would be lynched. Once, before answering a ques- tion, Simas looked toward Post interro- gatively. To this the defense entered an objection. Lawyer Raker attempted to show that the witness had talked with representatives of the prosecution as to the nature of his testimony, and to this end put a series of confusing and mls- leading questions. Judge Harrington fin- ally declared that Raker was misrepre- senting matters. Raker attempted to talk. “You sit down,” ordered Judge Harring- ton, “‘or I shall send you to jail.” Post questioned the veracity of Raker on some point, and it was here that the lawyer for the defense began drawing in- vidious comparisons. When some measure of calm had been restored, the examination of Simas was continued. He said he had heard Isom \Eades say “they ought to be hung.” This occurred in Morris’ store and Eades was talking with Morris_about the five men then under arrest. Eades said they had “done enough to be hung.” Robert Cortwright was recalled to tes- After Cortwright had been examined at some length, Raker offered to prove that Cort- wright’s reputation for truth, honesty | and integrity was bad, and that he had Leen impeached in a case at Lookout some time ago. Raker then asked the witness if it were not a fact that he had been im- peached? To this Cortwright replied that “a long, hungry thing tried it, but he failed, just like you will.” The witness referred to Attorney John Brown, an un- cle of the defendant. Attorney Harris sald that Cortwright was old enough to have quit 1y1n§ by this time. Certwright excitedly exclaimed that were he out of the courtroom there would be trouble between him and Harris.

CHICAGO, Dec. 17.—All doubt regarding the attitude of the Southern Pacific to- ward the Rock Island on account of the latter's El Paso extension was Temoved to-day when traffic relations of the friend- liest character were entered into by the traffic men representing both companies. To the Rock Island officials, at least, the solution of the problem is highly gratify- ing and to it may largely be ascribed the emphatic declaration made by Chairman Cable, who said: ‘“We have no intention of building from El Paso to the coast, and unless condi- tions greatly change I see no reason for our changing our position in the matter.” The future relations between the South- ern Pacific and the Rock Island were set- tled at a conference held between J. G. Stubbs, traffic director for the Harriman lines, and J. M. Johnson, third vice-presi- dent and freight traffic manager for the Rock Island. These officials were not long in arriving at an agreement which, put simply, is to the effect that the Southern Pacific will place the Rock Island on a parity with the Southern Pacific's connec- tions as soon as the El Paso extension is opened for traffic. This arrangement is of a reciprocal character. The Rock Island will deliver all its Southern California traffic to the Southern Pacific at El Paso, and_the Southern Pacific agrees to treat the Rock Island exactly the same as it treats its other connections. This can mean nothing :lse than a fair division of traflic in re- urn. Man and Horse Frozen. DENVER, Dec. 17.—A special to the News from Alma, Colo., says a man named Whaite, aged 60 years, living near Greens Lake, was frozen to death on the road between Alma and Fairplay Sunday evening. The body was found to-day. His horse was so badly frozen that it was necessary to kill the animal. Transports at Nagasaki.

Bohn, a news- paper publisher of Chicago, and his wife for the custody of their two children. The case came to the Los Angeles court from San Diego on a writ of habeas corpus, | sworn out by Bohn, and has attracted | considerable interest that Mrs. Bohn has been attended at ali | the sessions of the court by Madame Ting- ley, head of the Point Loma home of the Universal Brotherhood, and other officials in that branch of the Theosophical Soci- ety. The taking of testimony occupied four days. Madame Tingley was on the witness stand this forenoon and part of the after- noon and her testimony was all in favor of Mrs.. Bohn. She told of the several visits of Bohn to the Point Loma home and asserted that his real purpose was to kidnap his children. The witness recount- ed the details of her first meeting with the Bohn family and told why she would not admit the children to the school in her institution. Continuing, she said that she Lelleved that Bohn and Mrs. Green, his wife's mBther, exercised a diabolical in- fluence over the two Bohn children and their mother. She talked nervously and was warned repeatedly by the court for talking back and scolding the opposing counsel. | ‘When the testimony was concluded Judge Shaw gave the custody of the two boys to Bohn and required him to supply a bond in the sum of $500 for their safe presentation in Chicago by Thursday next, in compliance with an order of a Chicago court wherein divorce proceed- ings between the Bohns are pending.

Rock Jutting Out at Surface Yields Thousand Dollars to the Ton. MOKELUMNE HILL, Dec. 17.—M. A. Kiser to-day discovered a rich quartz prospect on the summit of French Hill, in the eastern suburbs of town. The for- mation is of porphyry and pieces of rock taken practically at the surface and put through hand-crushing show a prosp that would at a conservative estimate yield $1000 to the ton. The rock crops out prominently on the surface and was prob- ably walked over unnoticed by thou- sands of miners, because of its peculiar character and ' close resemblance to country rock. The gold is extremely fine. Just “below this J. B. Maguire, while ground sluicing during the last heavy rain, found a quartz nugget valued at $5.

THE FEAR OF HUMBUG Prevents Many People From Trying a Good Msdicine. ~§¥mach troubles are so common and i most cases so obstinate to cure that people are apt to look with suspiclon on any remedy claiming to be a radical, perma- nent cure for dyspepsia and indigestion. Many such pride themselves on thelr acuteness in never being humbugged, especially in medicines. This fear of being humbugged can be carried too far, so far, in fact, that many people suffer for years with weak diges- tion rather than risk a little time and made of a preparation so reliable and uni- versally used as Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tab- lets. Now, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are | vastly different in one important respect | from ordinary proprietary medicines, for the reason that they are not a secret pat- ent medicine. No secret is made of their ingredients, although they are sold by all druggists under protection of trade mark, but analysis shows them to contain the natural digestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, the digestive aclds, Golden Seal, bismuth, hydrastis and nux. They are not cathartic, neither do they act power- fully on any organ, but they cure indiges- tion on the common sense plan of digest- ing the food eaten thoroughly before it has time to ferment, sour and cause the mischief. This is the only secret of their success. Cathartic pills never have and never can cure indigestion and stomach troubles, be- cause they act entirely on the bowels, whereas the whole trouble is really in the stomach. ’ Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets taken after meals digest the food. That is all there is to it. Food not digested or half-digested is poison, as it creates gas, acidity, head- aches, palpitation of the heart, loss of | desh and many other troubles which are | often called by some other name.
