B.—Mint Di rector Preston was asked what es timate he han made as to the am-' ount of gold brought in»o the United States from Alaska since the recent discoveries. He ans w red that he should say, roughly, that the arrival of the Portland had brought the total up to about $2,500,000, and expected the total to swell to $6,000,000 by the close of navigation. The Portland would make one more trip, being due at Seattle on her return about October IC. On that last voyage home she would probably bring in a large body of miners who did not wish to spend the winter in the Kloudyke, and who would bring the bulk of their gold with them, so as to have its transportation under their own eyes. Not all gold brought from Alaska should be credited to the Klondike. Much of it, he thought from Alaska. Much of it, be thought, must have come from Circle City and Forty Mile Creek, within the jurisdiction of the United States. PUBLIC SCAOOL RKGISTRA TION.

Mrs John Drew is dying. The velran come dienne, who has worn the mask of comedy for so many years, who has wooed both laughter and tears from three generations of play goers is peacefully passing away at Larchmont N. Y. Mrs. Crew has for several years been a sufferer from a complication of kidney and heart troubles. No immebiate cause for alarm, how ever was felt until about a month ago, when a decided chaupe for the worse took place. Since then she ha- been gradually growing weaker. Relatives have been ad vised to come at once. John Drew, who has been tour- PERIODICAL 1 SICK-HEADACHES. Os Interasl io Women Because in this Case they Proceeded from an Ailment Peculiar to the Sex. THE MOTHER OF A YOUNG INFANT INTERVIEWED. From the Herald Democrat, Huron, S. D. A few years since, J. W. Kelley came to Huron, South Dakota, from Osceola, lowa, and purchased an interest in the Huron City Mill, an immense structure having a capacity of 200 barrels of flour per day. Soon after his arrival Mr. Kelley’s family removed here and some months later they were joined by their son Elmer and family, he having purchased an interest in the con cern, and the firm became known as J. W. Kelley & Son. Since their arrival they have built up an immense trade for their patent roller flour, and ship many carloads every month to eastern and other markets. When they came to Huron, Mrs. J. W. Kelley was in ver/ delicate health and the change of climaj* and conditions seemed to benefit her. But the relief proved only tem porary however, for after a few months’ resi dence here she lapsed into the same infirm physical condition that had been her lot for then nearly twenty years. Her ailments were those peculiar to women, and which women alone can best understand. In ad dition to these troubles Mrs. Kelley was a sufferer from acute sick-headache. This would come upon her at intervale of about two weeks, continuing for two, three or four days, much of the time compelling her to keep to her bed. Because of her affliction she was quite unable to do her housework, visit her neighbors, or attend church. This worried her greatly for she is a devout Christian and lives according to her profes sion. As Rev. B. 11. Burtt, pastor of the Congregational Church, to which Mrs. Kel ley belongs, said of her one evening at the close of service: “Mrs. Kelley is indeed a true mother in Israel; she is conscientious and earnest, faith ful and devoted —a Christian in the truest sense of the term.” In replying to inquiries touching her case, Mrs. Kelley said: “ I am sixty years of age, and was born in New York State, where 1 lived for fourteen years, then removed with my parents to Michigan, living there about the same num ber of vears, then went to lowa, remaining there till we came here some four years ago, or more. I have been troubled with weak nesses peculiar to my sex, for the past twenty five years. During that time my husband hM expended a large amount of monev fee ing physicians and buying remedies, but I found little reliet. Physicians told me the womb was badly disarranged and no perma nent relief could be afforded till the change of life ha<l fu.ly taken place. In this they like myself, were disappointed. To add to my other troubles a headache, painfully sickening would come upon me about every two weeks. I became quite discouraged and for a time ceased doctoring almost entirely; I had lost faith in the science of medicine, both of the old school and new, and cared to expend no more money in that way. “About a'year ago my son read in some newspaper an advertisement of Dr. Wil liams’Pink Pills, and urged me to try them. I hesitated because I had tried so many patent medicines without securing the much sought and long hoped for relief. But he insisted so strongly that I finally decided to give them a trial. Almost from the first I experienced relief, and after using the first box a change for the better was so apparent that I took courage and continued to use them strictly according to directions, until a short time since. I am so mudh better, as any one oan see, that I have gradually dis. continued their use. I take them now, but not regularly. I am a firm believer in Dr. Williams’ Pink Pilis and have po hesitancy in recommending them to any who may be similarlyafflicted as myself What they have done for me they will do foi others. ’’ 10 CENTS A WEEK ing tho Pacific coast in “Rosema ry will leave his company tonight at Salt Lake City and come direct ly’ to Now York.

Alt INTERESTING STORY TOLD UNDER EMBARRASSING CIRCUMSTANCES. From the Rcpreee, Loe Angelee, California. ' The interviewer’s lives sometimes fall in queer places. People who are to be talked to may be in all sorts of conditions and frames of mind, but one cannot conceive a much more embarrassing thing for all par ties concerned than an assignment to inter. 1 view a mother of a two days old infant. Some things ure too sacred for even the cal. lous newspaper man to lightly ignore. But Mrs. C. C. Reeder had a story to tel] and this paper wanted that story. The baby was asleep, and the mother expressed her amia bility. so the reporter was ushered into ths room. I Mrs. Reeder used to be Johanna Rinker, and lived for several years at Riverside, Cal. She was a domestic and worked very hard. Perhaps it was the toil, perhaps the climate, at all events, she fell sick. Doc tors and medicines did her no good. Her ap-| petite vanished. Sleep eluded her at night,' always and ever that dreadful feeling of las-! situde and depression, so familiar to women,! made itself apparent to her. And then she began to imagine things. One night while driving across a bridge that she knew per fectly well was there, she cried out in fright, because she could see nothing. The doctors might call this insanity, but until the hallu cinations and delusions grow to be a menace' to life or peace, not much heed is paid to the imaginings of weakly girls. | Last Spring Mrs. Reeder, for she had mar ried in the meantime, concluded to visit, her old home at Daleville, Ind., and it was while there that her mother, Mrs. Caroline! Leaser told her of the wonderful properties of Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. Mrs Reeder began to take them. Wnenl she started in she could not walk the three quarters of a mile to the post office, she was so weak. In about three weeks she took according to directions about five boxes of! the pills, and at the expiration of that time could go down into town and come back and do a big day's washing over the tub at home. Her blood came back into the pale cheeks, sleep once again refreshed her at night, the cold sweats left, and she could, eat and enjoy all the pleasures and diver-' sions of life where before she had been averso to society and amusements of all kinds. The awful notions and hallucinations left her, her brain again resumed its normal functions. From that time to now she has taken no medicine and she is well in all respects. ‘‘See my baby, God bless its heart,’’ said, the proud mother. “It is as strong and healthy as any baby ever born. It weighed' nine pounds.’’ As it lay there, its lift 4 pink fists clinched over its thumbs, its littX.. eyes puckered up in sleep, a bundle of pink, satiny infantile loveliness, there couM be) little doubt of the physical health of its parents. Mrs. Reeder lives at a cottage numbered! 4074 East Pico Street, Los Angelee, Cal., and the last words she said were “Oh, you are* perfectly excusable. lam Just as glad t* endorse Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills as you cagf possibly be to hear my story. If all suffering women only knew their power and good/, there would be less sickness and misery frl the world I'm sure.
