The Other Side of the Story
A HAMILTON MAN RETURNS FROM THE
KLONDIKE WITHOUT A FORTUNE
Some of our readers have no doubt
cast longing eyes to the golden Klon-
)dyke and the stories of great wealth
brought from there wet e very tempting
Here's the•othtfr side of the picture
as shown by the Hamilton Spectator :
"About the first Hamilton man to
leave this city for the Klondye was
A. T. Brydges, who lives at 219 Locke
street north. Mr Brydges caught the
gold fever shortly after the first re-
ports of the wealth of the Klondike'
reached these parts, and about a year
ago be bid good bye to all his friends
and started out to seek fame and for-
tune on the Yukon. Last week be re-
turned hone a wiser but a poorer man
by about $600. Mr Brydges is now
employed fixing' up- lots in the ceme-
tery, and when seen by a Spectator
representative was rather backward•
about telling of his trip. He started
from here last May, and went to Se-
attle, Wash., where he met a man
named Snider, of that city, and an-
other named Kavanagh, of McComb,
IiI. All three being anxious to become
' rich, they went into partnership, and
after purchasing about a ton of sup-
plies, they proceeded via the Chilcoot;
pass to Dawson City. On reaching
that city they found that thousands of
people had preceded them and that all
the gold claims were all eady picked
out. They prospected for some months
without success, and finally decided
to return home. They met a number
of pat ties in hard luck, and in this
way gotrid of a considerable portion
of their p:ovieions. They started for
home via the Si ikine river, and on the
way meta number of parties going in
with large supplies of provisions. Pur-
chasing enough to last them over the
• winter, they decided to take another
chance, and got an old claim which
had been deserted. After working it
for about three months they struck a
sespocket containing about $160 wort h of
gold, but this was all the yellow staff
they got between them. When their
provi:.ions were again giving signs of
running out they started towaitls Se
. attle, and when they reached that
town the report was given out that
each member of the pn,rty had secured
Yttotrt $37,000, Mr Brydges strongly
rulvfses anyone contemplating a trip
o the Klondike to stay at home.
While thete is lots of gold in that re-
gion, he says that the reports are
greatly exaggerated, and that the
transportation companies are the only
people who are making any money.
,A:it the claims for eight miles on either
iide,.of Klondike ate staked out, and
itionsands of people are laying around
Dawson City without anything to do,
and without money or other means of
oiling home. The reports sent . ul
tom Seattle about the fortunes peo-
ple are bringing out are, for the most
tart, false. Up to the time he left
iLW on City last fall, only $75,000 had
left' hat place. His trip cost him $640,
anit his share of the receipts was but
4$4ff, leaving him about $600 in the hole.
Be. Says he would not lake $5,000 and
iielako the tt ip Again, and the other
)rhduabers of his party were of the
Slime opinion."

SO THE ROPE OF THE LYNCHERS WAS
NOT NEEDED.
A Spectacle So Terrible That It Made
One Witness of the Tragedy Decide
That He Would Never Again Partici-
pate In a Matt Runt.
"Thorn was only one official hanging in
my county," said the ex -boomer from
Oregon, "and it turned out afterward that
au innocent man was executed in that in- '
Aimee. This precedent made even lynch-
ing very uncommon, so that when a score
of us started out to hang Abruhann Sam-
uels to the nearest tree it was only after a
careful consideration of the crime he had
committed. Samuels was a man of about
40, small, wiry and agile. Ile had reddish
hair and a heavy beard, the out of which
be was continually altering, and ho was
always neatly, rather flashily dressed. He
was married to a woman some tan years
his junior and lived with her and their
two children on a ranch on the divide be-
tween `Pin Pot and Shoestring valleys.
"In spite of his generally quiet behavior
Sttutuols was very unpopular, partly, 1
supebecause of his natty appearance
and pa tly because he was known as a
wife be iter. - Mrs. Samuels was not direct-
ly responsible for this knowledge, for she
knovy no ono in the neighborhood and was
rarely seen off tho clearing. She was thin
and tired looking, and her big gray eyes
had that cowed look that always arouses
sympathy. There was the same look in
the oyes of her two sons, who, passersby
noticed, always played quietly and with-
out much apparent enjoyment. It was
the tales these two little fellows told their
mates at the district school at Tin Pot
that first brought to the noticed the com-
munity the condition of affairs in the
home of the Samnela family.
"Whetherlit was because of the knowl-
edge that she had the sympathy of the
community or simply because she bad
borne all she could I never knew, but ono
day Alice Samuels turned on her husband
and drove him from the house. A drum-
mer for a dry goods house in Frisco re-
ported ono night that as he was driving
over the divide he saw Samuels in front
of his house door, parleying with bis wife,
who stood at the open window with a
shotgun. That night Samuels name to
town and got very drunk. He was taci-
turn and sullen, which was unusual and
was noticed. He started out In the direc-
tion of his home at about midnight.
"About daylight the next morning the
Samuels cabin was burned down, Mrs.
Samuels escaped with the children, but
there was no time for her to save any of
her belongings, even clothes. It was found
afterward that pitchy chips and stove
wood had been carried from a plle back of
the onbin to a heap of dry brushwood and
had been kindled. The flames had been
blown across the corner of the clearing In
whtoh the cabin stood, setting it afire and
also the woods beyond. With no other evi-
dence than this there was a strong suspi-
cion that Samuels had set the fire, and his
subsequent actions tended to confirm it.
Fueling against him was intensified by the
fact that the bre had gained a good start
along tho divide and was menacing valu-
able property on every side.
"Within a week from the time the fire
started the town bad grown too hot for
Samuels, and in three days more, during
which the fires bad done more damage, a
lynching bee was proposed, with Samuels
as its object of attention. As I had been
injured by the flres to a greater extent
than any other individual in the vicinity
I was asked to organize the bee. I de-
clined to do that, but I went along with
the party, more from curiosity than from
any desire to wreak personal, vengeance.
Samuels had heard of our intention and
bad stolen a horse and started along the
Smith river trail, intending, I suppose, to
proceed down the river to its mouth and
take a steamer for 'Fleece. .-
"Tho pursuing party rode hard, and we
sighted Samuels just at daybreak the next
morning es he crossed the ridge into the
Smith river valley about six miles ahead
of vs. Ile would surely have escaped us
had it not been that one arm of the forest
One intercepted him soon after be started
down the valley. The fire bad orossed the
ridge many miles below, and as it traveled
up the valley it presented a solid wall of
flame which It was impossible to pass.
Prom this wall Samuels was ferried to
turn back three miles below, 'where be en-
tered the valley, and there was no way out
except the back trail. On this we inter-
oepted him soon after, and it seemed as
though he could not possibly escape the
rope we were carrying for him. Ile did,
though, for be was finally consumed in
the fire he himself had started. He took
the desperate chance of trying to swim
down the shallow stream, whose flame
wrapped banks were not more than 20 feet
apart. It was an impossible feat. The
intense heat from tho blazing fir treats that
lined the stream had overcome him before
he got fairly started. An eddy stranded
him on a small bar, where he made one or
two ineffectual efforts to got under water
again and then lay still. He was envel-
oped for a few moments in the steam that
rose from hie wet clothes, which burst
into flames se soon as they were dry. Then
the naked body lying there on the sand
could bo scop to shrivel up and altar over,
and before we wore forced bank by the ad-
vancing wall of fire nothing was left but
a heap of glowing cinders. I shall never
forgot that epcctaclo, and, incidentally,
never participate in amen hunt again."—

The Buffalo and the Buffalo Bird.
Some two miles to my right I detected a
white streak. Turning to Mahoney, I
said, "Buffalo." Through my field glass
the white streak resolved Itself Into flock
of buffalo birds. They ere about tho size
of sen gulls and always travel with the
African buffalo, sometimes covering a
solid herd of 400 or 600 as if with a white
(oak.
Tho buffalo has another friend in the,
little alarm bird, whtoh is well known to
hunters. It is about the size of n sparrow
and warns him of approaching dnngur by
flying down on his back, pocking at hie
tough bide and sending forth a shrill note,
which immediately stampedes a whole
herd. I have often inquired of experienced
bunters whether the bird does not some-
times make n mistake and put those huge
brutes to flight unnecessarily, but I was
told that tho leaff llo l+ttve tipplinf. eonfl-

been stalking buffalo a foto days before,
well hidden in the grass, the herd sudtion-

but the watchful eye of my guide detected
the cause. Ono of those birds had flown
down and given. the alarm. Tbdtigh dis-

'ME CLINTON NEW ERA
AOQUIRE BRAVERY.
Old Soldier Tells llvw to Overcome In-
herent Cowardice,
"I would like to let young mien know,"
said an old soldier, "that bravery, like al-
most any other attribute, can be acquired.
I would like to let them know this be-
cause there are some poor fallowe who are
brought into the world with a timid na-
ture that 0011ee8 them inuoh suffering.
While having an admiration for brave
men, they feel that they are cowards, and,
aooustoining themselves to this belief,
they never attempt to fight against their
weakness. Do you know I really believe
that most of the noted brave men of the
world have become brave simply by eye-
tematioally overeoming cowardice. Did
not I.uanus, Napoleon's most dashing gen-
eral, say, 'The man who says he never felt
fear is a poltroon and a liar' But, while
Lannes thus acknowledged to the sensa-
tion of fear, he never allowed himself to
show it, and that is the point. Moreover,
by pendia() such things become easy. Now,
if there is any young man who is a ooward
and wishes to become brave, let me say
this to him: Make up your mind first of
till that it is ntuoli�preforable to suffer
dentb than to be trampled upon or humil-
iated. From what you have experienced
you know the disgust, the suffering, acute
and degrading, that results when you back
down in an unmanly fashion. Say this,
then—I muoh prefer to die than to experi-
ence such feelings again. Impress it upon
your mind, and then, as a test to your
spirit, toroe yourself to teas those things
that you have been avoiding from fright.
If a num has been overawing you, bluffing
you, 1n plain terms lay for him deliber-
ately, bluff him back double, and if he
wishes to fight throw yourself upon him
with a vim and punch hard. He. cannot
do more than kill you, and, as you have
made up your mind that it is bettor to die
than to submit to humiliation, your death,
as it were, is a thing already program-
med. And if you whip him the sensation
is very agreeable and frees you from any
further fears of falling a victim to coward-
ice."—New Orleans Times-Dornoorat.

ATTRACTIVE WOMEN
Why is one woman attractive and an-
other not ? The most admirable and at-
tractive thing about a woman is her wo-
manliness. Everybody admires a woman-
ly woman. She must have health, of
course, because without it she would lose
the brightness of her eyes, the fulness of
her cheeks and her vivacity. Real health
must mean that a woman is really a wo
man. That she is strong and perfect in a
sexual way, as well as in every other
way. That she is capable of performing
perfectly the duties of maternity. Some
are born with what is called"constitutional
weakness." Tl.ose who do not enjoy per-
fect health, need only take the proper pre-
cautions and the proper remedy to become
well and strong. Dr Pierce's Favorite

Tho plebiscite bill passed its second lead-
ing, and also the committee stage, and that
without amendment. Not only the facility
with which it was passed, but the general
tenor and tone of the debate, were very fav-
orable, and will, on the whole, prove satis-
factory to prohibitionists. The Opposition
members tried, of course, to pin the govern-
ment down to a precise and binding pledge
to stand or fall by a prohibition bill, with-
out any reservation. The Premier and his
party have pledged themselves very dis-
tinctly, and so far they have kept their
promises, and the country will trust them
to fulfil their pledge to the utmost. If the
Liberal party is wise it will understand that
the straight, honest and thorough policy on
this question is the one which, no matter
what may be the outcome, will be the best
one—the one which will leave the party
strongest.—Montreal Witness.

A YELLOW FEVER FIGHT.
Mitten Island Onoo In a State of Rebellion
Over the Disease.
The first "packet" running between
Now York and Staten Island began its
voyages semiweekly in 1756, and the fer-
rymen summoned the passengers by the
blast of a born. For a number of years
afterward communication between the city
and Staten Island was generally intermit-
tent, and the attempt made officially 40
years ago to utilize a portion of Staten Is-
land, now the most tranquil, law abiding,
bucolic, sylvan and placid subdivision of
the city of Now York, for quarantine pur-
poses created a disturbance so remarkable
in character, so Clearly at variance with
the pacific nature of the inhabitants
and so dangerous to the state that the
record of it BOOMS almost to be exaggerat-
ed. Tho old provincial council years be-
fore the breaking out of the Revolutionary
war established a quarantine, especially
for vessels coming from the West Indies,
runny et them Dutch possessions at that
time, on Bedloo's island. After the close
of the Revolutionary war the quarantine
establishment was removed to Governors
island, but that was objected to on the
ground of its proximity to New York.
Nevertheless it continued in use until the '
state purohased 80 aeros of land within
the township of Castleton for quarantine
purposes,
In the summer of 1856 there was an out-
break of yellow fever, and the inhabitants
of Castleton organized' into a mob and
armed with sticks, stones, guns and
torches, attacked a quarantine building,
which they set on fire and destroyed, de-
spite the resistance of the local authorities
and calls for soldiers from other states.
The state authorities began to erect new
quarantine buildings, but these in turn
were burned by another mob of violent
Staten Islanders, all efforts to placate
whom failed utterly. Recruits even were
sunt to aid the Staten Islanders from New
Jersey. The hostility to the establishment
of n quarantine increased in strength. The
Castleton board of health declared it a -
nuisance, and on the night of Sept. 1, 1856,
the place was attacked by a rnob-, the sick
were carried from the hospitals and luilt
upon mattresses in the fields, the office' A
and physicians were driven off, and all the
buildings, save the women's hospital, were
destroyed by fire. The next night the re- ,
maining hospital was burned down.
The go ernor deolared the island in re-
bellion nd sent troops against the Staten
Island e, but without effect. John A.
King, a ,resident of Long Island, was at
that time governor. He proclaimed Staten
Island under martial law, but the inhab-
itants remained obdurate. They refused
to recognize King and after destroying 82
buildings declared that they would never
lay down their arena until the "yellow
jack" was removed. Ultimately Richmond
county was compelled to pay for all the
losses occasioned, but the state receded
from its position and abandoned its claim
to the right of a quarantine on Staten Is-
land, a floating hospital being established
instead by a commission appointed by the
legislature for that purpose. Horatio Sey-
mour was at the head of It. --Now York

11 Horrible Story.
The accounts of the troubles in Italy
show that in some parts of the coun-
t" y the wot et oat rages of anarchism
have occur ted. Murder and iucendiar-
isrn are the older of the day. It is al-
ready known how the mob did the
physician Brandis to death at Miner -
veno. The doctor was not the only
victim. From his house, which was
set on fire, the rioters went to the resi-
dence of it min owner named Barletta,
whose mills had already been plunder-
ed. This man did not have the repu-
tation of being a philanthropist. Only
a few days before he had a thanksgiv-
ing mass read in the presence of all his
ernployees in his privatecllapel because
the Madonna had made it possible for
him to sell corn at 50 francs per hun-
dred weight. When the mob reached
the house of this miller millionaire, he
had shots tired from the windows at
them; this doing no good, he threw
1000 francs in small nickel pieces into
the midst of the crowd, but all in vain.
The doors of the house were battered
in, and a terrible scene followed. Bar-
letta bargained for his life. He offered
thousands upon thousands of francs,
all his fortune, but amid savage cries
of "We want your bead," the old users.
er was beaten to death like a mad dog.
His wife was frightfully injured by
blows from a hatchet, and the child•
ren barely escaped being dashed from
a balcony. The mob then went on
plundering. They penetrated all the
houses occupied by the better classes,
robbing, killing and burning. Those
attacked did not dare even to defend
themselves, but voluntarily opened
their doors and handed out all the
money demanded of them by the riot-
ers. After eight hours' plundering the
militia arrived on the scene and dis-
persed the mob, heavily laden with
loot. The whole neighborhood was
white with flour taken from the mills.
Rolls of gold coin and silver ornaments
were found in the ditches where they
had been thrown by the plunderers in
their flight. Two hundred and fifty
arrests were made.
