WASniNOTON, Oct 8. The war de
MOrtmoDt lin mad public the annual
port of UrlgudliT General Uandall,
omrunnrtiiig the department of Aliukn.
General ltnndnll lay niurh stress on
he rltfors of au Alaskan winter. The
aold, he wtvs, U lutcii.se ami continues
e from November to April, with so
rre and fruquont bllstznrds. There la
M docknge for ocuun vwstdn at the
pply port, Fort fU. Mlrhiml'a, and all
npplles must be lightered from whips
in. open roadstead. If tho weather Is
ttogh, the work of lightering become!
impossible.
Gtnrnil Hnndall says that the most
import 11 nt work In the department uft-
providing for the housing and mip
yly of troop wm that of constructing
:be mllltiiry telegraph Hue and military
road through Alaska. The total length
f line constructed up to the date of the
.eport, Aug. 15, was about 40(1 miles.
The work in being pushed at fast at
,Mlble, and by the close of navigation
ttkin year it Is hoped that telegraphic
omniunivutlon between Fort St. Mi
chael's and l'ort Gibbon, 420 miles dl
ant, will have been established. The
..-onst ruction of these lines, General
Xandull says, la attendtnl with many
Jlfficultle peculiar to an arctic climate.
Owing to the Isolation of army post
la Alaska and to the lack of facilities
for Instruction In drill and for conven
ing: court martlals General Uandall
lays troops left to aerve there for sev
eral yeurs must deteriorate In military
ttflJclency. He therefore recommends
chat troops stationed iu Alaska be re
tiered every two year and that only
man with more than two years to serve
U ordered there.

WASH1NOTOK, Oct. 8.-Lleutenant
Commander Hodgson again occupied
the greater part of the Henley court of
Inquiry ytsterday as a witness. He
was followed on the stsnd by Captain
W. XL Folger, formerly chief of the
bureau of ordnance of the navy de
partment, but commander of the New
Orlenns during the Spanish war. Lieu
tenant Hyson nlso wss recalled to add
souie details to his former testimony
concerning the coal supply of th
American fleet during the Santiago
blockade.
Commander Hodson repeated and
extended his story of the battle of July
8, giving the opinion that Commodore
Schley's conduct on that occasion was
such as that of a commander In chief
should have been. He also explained
nt some length his correspondence
with Admiral Schley concerning the
alleged colloquy between them while
tho Santiago engagement was In prog
ress. He said he had had no con
troversy witli the commodore, but he
repeated that the commodore had
said, "Damn the Texas!" when told
that that vessel was In danger.
Captain Folger said that the bom
Imrdmentg of the Cristobal Colon on
May 31 had been eminently successful
in developing the strength of the Span
ish shore batteries and had shown
them to be very weak. He also said
that If the Spanish vessels had at
tempted to escape at night they could
not have been seen by the blockading
fleet In bad weather.
TREATY RUMORS.
Englnnil Ilenra of Provision to Aliro
ttnte Clnrton-Dnlwer Agreement.
LONDON, Oct. 8. The Washington
correspondent of The Dally Chronicle
gives the alleged substance of a pro
visional canal treaty abrogating the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty.
Commenting editorially upon these
advices. The Dally Chronicle says:
"Englishmen will be startled to learn
that we have abandoned our rights un
der the Clayton-Bulwer tmaty and sur
rendered every disputed point without
any compensation. The new treaty Is
apparently another Instance of Lord
Salisbury's placid Indifference and Lord
Lansdowne's impulsive generosity.
"It Is said that Tresldeot Roosevelt
will recommend Its adoption to the sen
ate. Doubtless Great Britain will agree
to it. Although It gives as nothing at
all, It will have .the advantage of get
ting rid of all our outstanding grtov
auces with tho United States."

Nature has jut one pigment on her pall
ette with which she produces all the marvel
ous tints of beauty, and that' one pigment is
the blood. The shell-like pink beneath the
finger nails, the delicate rose of the check,
the cherry ripeness ot the lips, the Irridcs
cent brilliance of the eyes are all produced
by the blood. Just as the permanence of a
beautiful painting will depend upon the pur
ity of the colors with which it is painted, so
the permanence of beauty depends on the
purity of the blood. 1'aint, powder and
cosmetics won't avail to preserve beauty.
Beauty begins in the blood. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is a true bcauti
fier, because it f rovides for nature that pure
blood wilh which alone she can paint. The
use of this medicine will cleanse the skin,
brighten the Complexion, briphten the eyes,
and give to face and form that radiance of
health which is the greatest charm of beauty.

fective in ridding the system of closing

THE KEYSTONE COPPER MINING CO.,
Incorporated Under the Laws ot South Dakota, June IS, 1901.
Capital Stoclr, $1,000,000.
Divided into 2co,ooo Shares of Par Value of $5.00 Each.
FULL PAID AND NON-ASSESSABLE
We call special attention to the fact that one share of this Company
whose entire Capital Stock consists of only 200,000 shares of the par
value of Five Dollars each, secures an interest in its property equal to 5
shares in a Company of One Million Shares of the par value of only
One Dollar each, as is the case with nearly all Mining Companies offer
ing shares at a price seemingly lower than the present price of the
shares of this Company, but in reality much higher.
ZFropertsr of Company.
This is very extensive, consisting of four mining properties, each
over one mile in length, on a great copper vein over 100 feet in width,
pronounced by Copper experts as among the widest and richest copper
veins known, lacking only the necessary development to place same in
the front rank of the greatest dividend and copper producing properties.
It is on the same gteat Copper Mineral Belt upon which are located the world's pres
ent grcntest copper mines, each paying many millions of dollars annually in dividends and
developed to the depth of from looo lo 2000 feet, thus fully establishing the fuct that the
veins are not alone intxhaustible, but widen and become even more profitable with depth.
The great vein on ihis property is of such unusual widlh and so prolific in copper ore
from surface that only moderate developments nre needed to begin the production of ore oa
a scale to insure lare dividends on the shares of this Company.
The Company is sinking a shaft now nenrly 100 lcet in depth on the voin of one of itr
four properties, the "Pay Roll." This shaft is entirely in ore, which, by tests gave values
at the surface of from 3 to 4 per cent, copper; at the depth of fifty feet tests nave values of
from o to 10 per cent, copper; at the depth of seventy feet tests gave values of from 12 to
14 per cent 111 copper, while selected samples show values as high as ia per cent copper
and nearly $15 in gold and silver per ton.
ine value ot tlic gold per ton will enable
cost
ns knowing mat mis great vein is not alone of unusual width, but nlso of rare rich
ness in ore at compared with some of the richest copper mines, we refer to the great " n
aconda Mine," paying over .5,ooo.ooo annually in dividends from ore avenging less than
five per cent in copper; or to the "Doston and Montana" paying over 6.ooo7goo annua!!
rroin ore averaging less than six per cent, in copper; or to the "Great Verde," paying
nearly if 5,000,000 annually in dividends from ore averaging less than six per cent, in co,
To give an approximate idea of the amount of ore and its value, that can be opened
by a moderate development in only a small part of such a vein, the following estimates arc
given 1 Estimating pay ore voin at only 25 foot In width, depth of shapft, Soo feci, length ot

of the company, and sufficient to insure dividends to amount of Ten Dollars for each share
of the stock. As the length of the vein on this one property, the -Pay Roll," is over onc-
uar er mile in length, and the depto to which s; me can be worked manv thousands of feet,
