Climbing Mountains.
Is a fascinating and invigor
ating pastime. It developes not
the body only, but the mind. The
Alpine Peaks of Switzerland have
their counterpart in our own
country, in the Sierras, the-^Jas-
cades, and parts of the Rockies.
The greatest glacial peak of
the United States is Mt. Ranier
in Washington, more than 15,500
feet high. This magnificent
mountain has 15 or more giant
glaciers creeping down its sides
and discharging their glacial de
tritus into the Columbia river or
Puget Sound.
A climb to the summit of this
is a mountaineering feat worthy
of any mountaineer. For 25 centf
Chas. S. Fee, Gen'l Passenger
Agent of the Northern Pacific
railway, St. Paul, Minn.will
send to any address an illustarted
booklet called "Climbing Mt. Ra
nier" describing a climb over gla
ciers to the top of the moun
tain.

The Rage for Speed,
The writer in the Horseless
Age claims that traveling at high
speeds in motor cars breeds a
form of disease or a mania for
such recreation that is positively
dangerous. This may be putting
the facts too strongly, but there
is certainly a limit beyond which
it is unreasonable to go whether
you are driving a horse,...or an I
automobile. Before the *i*wi
limit is reached there is wonder
ful exhiliration from the large
quantities of fresh air inhaled, i
Golden grain belt beer produces
much the same effect, resting
the nerves and refreshing the
entire body. You should use it
regularly in your home. Order
of your nearest dealer or be sup

Fairfax. S. D., Aug. 12. By pos
sessing a sharp knife and an unlimited
amount of nerve, Albert Gauck. who
carries the United States mail be
tween Fort Randall and Fairfax, saved

rattlesnake, and. being many miles
from the nearest doctor, without hesi
tation drew out his pocket knife ar.d
deliberately cut out a chunk of flssh

TERRIBLE CATASTROPHE OCCURS
ON UNDERGROUND RAILWAY
IN PARIS.
LIVES CHOKE OU SMOKE
PASSENGERS THROWN INTO WILD
PANIC IN STRUGGLES TO
ESCAPE.
EIGHTY-TWO BODIES RECOVERED
MANY MORE BODIES ARE BE-
LIEVED TO BE IN HE
TUNNEL.
Paris, Aug. 12. A catastrophe oc
curred last evening on the Metropoli
tan Electric railway, which runs most
ly underground, in which at least 90
persons are believed have lost their
lives. Up to 3 o'clock this morning
seven bodies have been recovered and
the search continues.
One train broke down at Menilmon
tant station, which is in a poor and
populous Quarter of Paris. This train
was promptly emptied, and the train
following was ordered to push it to the
repairing sheds. On the way these
two trains caught fire but the em
ployes succeeded in escaping. Mean
while a crowded train reached Les
Couronnes, the preceding station, and
the officials seeing smoke pouring out
of the tunnel, gave the alarm. A panic
ensued, the passengers
Struggling to Escape
from the station. Amid the increas
ing smoke many attempted to re
turn along the line toward Belleville,
and they were suffocated. The of
ficials seem to have lost their heads
and are unable to say how many pas
sengers went out. The firemen for
several hours were unable to enter the
station or the tunnel owing to
dense smoke which poured out
black clouds. Meanwhile thousands of
anxious people gathered about the sta
tion. All the police and fire officers
were on the spot. The excitement
was intense.
Finally the firemen flooded the burn
ign mass and shortly afterward they
entered the tunnel. They brought up
the corpses of eighty-two persons. The
total number of dead will probably
reach ninety.
SHAW WILL NOT HELP.
Condition of Money Market Does Not
Call for Government Action.
Washington, Aug. 12. The dis
quieting state of business in Wall
street does not, in the opinion of Sec
retary Shaw, present condition.! whiS
justify the government in attempting
any measure of relief. Although it is
admitted at the treasury department
that the situation in the financial dis
trict in New York has an unfortunate
effect on business conditions through
out the country, tending in some de
gree to destroy confidence and to
cause timidity on the part of investors
in industrial and other enterprises, yet
it is held that the money market is in
far better condition than it was a year
ago. In fact the officials here main
tain that there is no occasion for any
effort on the part of the government to
swell the volume of available cur
rency.
FATIGUING DAY FOR PIUS.
Receives All Delegatir V.'Jiich At
tended Coronation Ceremonies.
Rome, Aug. 12.Pius X. had another
fatiguing day, as he received all the
delegations which had come to Rome
to attend the coronation ceremonies
He accorded a lengthy audience to
about 300 from Venice, receiving them
in the Clementine hall. The pontiff
allowed all the members of the dele
gation to kiss his hand and called by
name those whom he knew just as he
had when he met them in Venice. His
old Venetian friends agree that the
pope looks ten years older than he did
before his election, hut that his affable
manner has not changed.
DIRECT RULE OF THE POPE.
American Catholics Desire a Change
and Make That Request.
Rome, Aug. 12. The pope yester
day granted an audience to a repre
sentative from the archdiocese of Cin
cinnati, who submitted the Peter's
pence collected by Archbishop Elder.
On behalf of the American clergy he
expressed to his holiness a desire that
they be withdrawn from tbe govern
ment of the congregation of the propa
ganda and be made directly subject to
the pope, on the ground that the Unit
ed States, having no state religion,
should not be classed with England,
which is officially Protestant.
Fast Mail Derailed.

Vienna Aug. 12.The strike riots at

APPEALTOPOWERS
MACEDONIANS SAY INTERVEN-
TION ONLY CAN STOP BLOOD-
SHED.
CHRISTIANS FORCED TO REBEL
EFFORTS TO SECURE REFORMS
RESULT IN RENEWAL OF
FANATICISM.
AR E NO W I N TH E EIGHT O STAY
MACEDONIANS WILL FIGHT UN-
TIL THEY ATTAIN THEIR
OBJECT.
Sofia, Aug. 12.The delegates here
of the Macedonian committed ad
dressed the following appeal to each
of the representatives of the powers:
"Your Excellency: The delegates
of the Macedonian committee have the
honor to bring to your notice the fol
lowing declaration with the request
that you communicate it to your gov
ernment:
"The Mussulmans' systematic perse
cution ha* compelled the Christians Tn
Macedonia and the vilayet of Adriftn
ople to institute a general rising. They
have had recourse to this extreme
measure after exhausting all pacltic
means to secure the intervention of
Europe to enforce the provisions of
the Berlin treaty. At the present mo
ment intervention is the only mean*
of remedying the evil and
Stopping Bloodshed.
The sporadis efforts of the powers to
secure reforms have failed they re
sulted merely in a recrudescence of
Turkish fanaticism and government
oppression.
"It is evident that reform measures
to he efficacious must include the ap
pointmpnt of a Christian governor gen
eral of Macedonia, some one who has
never held office under the porte, and
who must be independent of the
Turkish government in the exercise
of his functions, and the further ap
pointment by the powers of a joint,
permanent administrative board, with
full powers to deal with any disturb
ance.
"Having published the foregoing
facts to the civilized world and made
known the causes which have driven
the Macedonians to despair, the com
mittee for the Macedonians, now in
arms, propose to continue the fight
till the object of their uprising hag
bean attained."
Provoked by Tcrkey.
London, Aug. 12.The Times prints
a dispatch from Sofia which says it is
believed there that the Turkish gov
ernment provoked the present Mace
donian rising "for not only has Turkey
failed to execute the promises made
to the Bulgarian government for the
amelioration of the condition of the
Bulgarian Macedonians, but she has
increased her persecution and mal
treatment, thus exasperating them.
If the Turks should try now to sup
press the rebellion by the mansacre of
Innocent people the Bulgarian govern
ment would be obliged to intervene."
Powers Exchanging Views.
Rome. Aug. 12.. It is stated here
that there has been an exchange of
views between the powers regarding
the situation in Macedonia, and that
apparently the powers have decided to
support Austria and Russia in efforts
to re-establish peace.
BULLETS OF WAX.
on the Pugnacious Cubans Meet
"Field of Honor."*
Havana, Aug. 12A duel was fought
hetween a lawyer and a revolutionary
general. Pistols were used. Each
combatant had three shots, but neither
of them were Injured. It is understooi
that the pistols were loaded with wax
bullets. The trouble arose over the
alleged rising of insurgents.
Prefer the United States.
San Diego, Oal., Aug. 12.Natives,
of Lower California are reported to be
crossing the line into the United
States at Campo in large numbers be
cause of a general concentration that
is now carried on for the Mexican
army. The rural guards are busy
rounding up the natives for a five-year
term in tbe army. The pay is poor and
the men object to the concentration.
Dowager Tries to Square Herself.
Tien-tsin, Aug.-12.-^- The dowager
empress is trying to remove the bad
impression caused by the execution of
Shen Chien, the reformist journalist
who was put to death by her order on
July 31, by isnuing popular edicts, but
the anti-reform movement continues
threatening, even in the case of Vice
roy Chang Chih Tung, who remains
hostile to Russian influence.
