This is what prominent physician says: a have 'I given my own children the benefit of very careful study in the matter of absolute cleanliness in bottle feeding. I have studied the so-called easily- cleaned nursing bottles, and I long ago came to the conclusion that a little Pearline would render ordinary nursing bottles the satest utensils of them all. 1 firmly believe that children properly fed and cleanly fed will avoid the majority of the difficulties which they encounter during the first two years of life. I believe that if every feeding bottle was washed with Pearline, many innocent lives would be saved." Surely, this is a matter to interest every mother. Nothing so thorou.o-hlv cleanses as Pearline.

30. It is said that one of the purposes of the visit to Wash ington of the minister of Venezuela Is to J. 8. Lancaster and Tom Noyes and Their Separate Plans. The Seattle Postilntelligencer of the 2Sth inst.

has interesting items, about two citizens of Butte who are heading for the gold fields of Alaska, which are given herewith: Among the Klondikers who came Into the city yesterday was J. S. Lancaster of Butte, Mont, who will be accom-nanied on his trip by R. W. Calder- head and four miners.

Mr. Calderhead is a brother of S. C. Calderhead, the present chief deputy in the sheriff office of this county. Mr.

Lancaster is not a stranger in Alaska, having resided' for some time in Juneau, and although he has never been inland, he has gained a practical knowledge of the country which will be of incalculable benefit to him in conducting his expedition. He has recently returned from a visit to Winnepeg, where he met some of the factors of the Hudson's Bay company, from whom he obtained valuable and reliable information. He expects to go in from Dyea or Skaguay, probably the latter, with horses and sleds. He will carry four horses, and he is prepared to give good reasons for choosing this method of transportation. For months he has been investigating carefully the best method of making the journey from the coast to on the ice.

At one time he had an idea of going down the lakes with an ice boat, but the obstacles presented by ice jams and the general uncertainty of the scheme caused him to abandon it. Then for a while he took up the plan of going in with a large dog train. But his visit to Manitoba caused him to abandon that plan also. From the Hudson's Bay company people he learned that it would be perfectly feasible to go in with horses. "Yes, there are a good many other people from Butte going to the Klondike.

In fact, I am safe in saying that Butte will send more people than any other town of its size in the country. There is hardly a prominent firm there that will not have a representative of some kind in the field. You see there Is plenty of money in Butte, and it is essentially a mining city. Most of the people are there simply until some, thing better presents itself. This some, thing better, or at least more promising, many think they have found in the Klondike, and consequently many people will be coming this way." Two strong, hardy young men, one from Texas, the other from Montana, both actuated by the same desire to dig gold nuggets out of the placer beds of the Yukon basin, are to sail for the north on the steamer Rosalie.

They are Gaston Cogdell of Granbury, Texas, and Tom Noyes of Butte, Mont. Mr. Cogdell arrived in Seattle early in November from Granbury and has resided at the Rainier-Grand during his stay in this city. He says that every town of any size in Texas will send from two to twenty-five men bound for the Klondike and Alaska. Since his stay in Seattle he has been besieged with inquires from friends in Texas, until his correspondence reached a volume almost justifying the employment of a private secretary.

Mr. Noyes is the son of John Noyes, who owns the building occupied by the Rainier-Grand hotel. Backed by the experience of his father, who spent 40 years in the mining business, and by his knowledge of the ledges, Mr. Noyes hooes to find a new Eldorado in Alaska or the northwest territory. He and Mr.

Cogdell will make the Hootahnqua river country their objective point. They first contemplated going to Dawson direct, but believing that the Hootalinqua river drained a territory likely to be rich in mineral, they have decided to go there and prospect for the precius metal. Mr. Cogdell resigned his position as vice president of the First National bank of Granbury, of which his father is president, and left his young wife at home order to make a try at fortune in the gold fields of the north. He and Mr.

Noyes have purchased an outfit of about 3,000 pounds in Seattle. This, together with a yoke of oxen, will be sent north on the Rosalie. Mr. Noyes is now in Skaguay, reconnoiter-ing the pass to the lakes. On his advice they have decided to cross the White pass.

They will drive their yoke of oxen clear through to the Hootalinqua river. Their provisions and 1,000 pounds of hay and feed for the oxen will be placed on six sleds, to which the oxen will be yoked. "I do not anticipate any difficulty whatever on the trip." said Mr. Cog dell in a confident tone last night. "I was raised on a farm myself, and 1 guess I know how to handle an ox team.

I propose to shoe them myself whenever their shoes are worrout. We will take plenty of provisions and plenty of food for the animals. When it storms so as to make travel impossible, we will camp and then proceed again when the weather moderates. Thus we ought to make pretty good progress." Detailed as Attache. Washington, Dec.

30. Major Livermore of the engineer corps has been detailed as military attache at Copenhagen and Stockholm, an assignment that is said to relieve him from any imputation that might have resulted frim his failure to receive the assignment as engineer member of the Nicaragua canal committee. At present Major Livermore is stationed at Boston in the charge of light work. With a Fnll Force. Denver, Dec.

News From Nicaragua. Manama. Nicaragua, via Galveston, Dec. 31. Rear Admiral J.

G. Walker and the members of the Nicaraguan com Second Chapter In a Story of Unlawful Gambling; A MINER WHO DROPPED HIS ROLL His Double Version of the Affair Leads to the Arrest of Henry Albert son, Jer ry Clifford and Harry Woodrldge Yes terday for Alleged Conspiracy to De feat the Ends of Justice. The sequel to the strange stories that were told by David Hornett, a miner from Comet, in relation to an alleged brace faro game at which he dropped his roll, occurred yesterday when Henry Albertson, Harry Woolridge and Jerry Clifford were arrested on a charge of conspiracy. They were arraigned before Judge Laurandeau, in whose court the complaint was filed, and demanded a hearing which was set for 2 o'clock this afternoon. Their bonds were placed at $300 and were furnished.

Hornett came in from the hills a day or two before Christmas to spend the festive season in the whirl of a great city, and according to the story that he first told he soon fell in with Harry Woolridge, a well known sport and gambler, who eteered him against a faro game in a room over the Silver Bow brewery on Main street, in which Henry Albertson is reported to have had an interest. He staked Woolridge to four $10 bets which were lost in four playB and he then bet the rest of his roll, amounting to $90, and lost it with a regularity and rapidity that created a suspcion in his mind that the game was a crooked one. From the fact that he was the only player and that the room contained only the dealer and case keeper and Woolridge and himself, he also concluded after all of his money had disappeared in short order that the game had been fixed up for his particular benefit and he lost no time in reporting his experience at police headquarters. He found both Captain Dawson and Detective Murphy at the station and they immediately returned with him to the room in which he said he had been robbed but found it deserted and chairs piled on top of the faro table. They then went around town with him in search of Woolridge but were unable to find that smooth gentleman so they left him with the parting admonition to lay his case before the county attorney in the morning.

In tha morning, however, Hornett told a very different story from the one he had recited the night before. He said that he never met such a man as Woolridge, that he had not seen a faro game since he had been in Butte, that he had left his roll, amounting to $130, at Jerry Clifford's saloon the night before while he was drunk and that it had been returned to him, and that everybody was all right. His second story had a very fishy look about it and the fishiness was increased by the fact that he was not noticeably under the influence of liquor when he complained of having been robbed of his money against a brace game. He called at the city jail to apologize for the unnecessary trouble he had put the officers to and after listening to his amended version of the affair, which sounded very much as though he had been "squared" Captain Dawson ordered him sent to the county pail so that the county attorney might investigate the remarkable proceeding. The offi cers have since been looking into the case and from the filing of the complaint it is strongly suspected that Hornett has been doing some more talking and that it is of a definite nature.

The complaint was filed sooner than it might otherwise have been on account of a rumor which reached the county attorney's office that Woolridge was preparing to leave town. The complaint in full is as follows: "That on or about the 24th day of December, 1897, at the county of Silver Bow and state of Montana the above named defendants were guilty of the crime of conspiracy, committed as fol lows, to-wit: That at said county and state aforesaid on or about said 24th day of December, 1897, and before the filing of this complaint the said de fendants, Harry Woolridge, Jeremiah Clifford and Henry Albertson, did wil fully, and unlawfully, and feloniously conspire to commit an act for the per version and obstruction of justice and the due administration of the laws of the state of Montana, in this to-wit That the said defendants did then and there and on the said 24th day of De cember. 1897. conspire to prevent, in fluence, bribe and prevail upon one David Hornett not to give certain information to the authorities of Silver Bow county and for the purpose suppressing altogether such information regarding the commission of certain felony, namely, the violation of the anti-gambling law, known as senate PHONE. 82.

The proper requirements of an ice house are first, a dry foundation perfectly sealed against entrance of air; second, an air tight, non-conducting wall around the ice of such' character that any damp that might happen or exist in the wall, says the Massachusetts Ploughman, may be evaporated from the outside and thus tend, by the influence of evaporation to cool the wall; third, a well ventilated roof or cover or roof, through which a current of air may pass by which moisture gathering in the covering over the body of the ice may be evapoarted, with the result of keeping the covering dry and cool; fourth, a solid block of ice packed so that all blocks, closely fitting, or having the spaces between them filled with small ice or the powdered fragments' made in the filling swept into the crevices, make a single block of Ice. These requisites are best secured by a wooden house, with double walls, filled in between with any dry, porous substance, so as to secure as many minute air spaces as possible.

Dry sawdust answers this purpose better than any thing ele. Dry tan bark comes next; fine charcoal next; and after these dry-forest leaves closely pressed down will serve the purpose. The house should be placed on elevated, dry ground, exposed to the wind and air and having no shade. It should have a tight roof, with gables open to the air, so that a free current of air may pass through and over the covering of the ice, keeping this covering dry and perfectly sustaining its porosity, which would be destroyed if the covering should be wet and soggy. Inside the floor should be sealed against the entrance of air with the greatest care.

This is the weakest part of an ice house, and is to be looked after particularly. A cemented floor is the best. There should be a good drainage on the floor by making several small channels, all conveying to one corner, where a perfect air trap made like an laid on its side is placed, in which water will always stay, thus preserving the bottom from access of air which would otherwise enter and soon cut a way through the ice. If these requisites are secured no inside packing is needed; the ice may be packed close to the inner wall. Another safeguard is to have the ice cut in blocks so that the joints are broken, as for instance, 16 by 24 or 12 by 18, three feet lengthwise crossing two thus effectually jwyenting circulation of air through the mass.

To illustrate fhe advantage and effect of this, it may be mentioned that ice cut in this way has been packed out of doors in a pile and merely covered by a heap of refuse tan bark and simply enclosed in a rough boarded enclosure and it kept perfectly well all the summer. If these necessary conditions are secured, any sort of shelter above ground in an airy location will keep ice, but an underground storage will fail, because the conditions cannot be secured. HIS SENSE OF DIRECTION. "Do you know your orders, sentinel?" was asked of a not overbright Irish soldier on guard duty recently at Fort Logan, Cal. "Yes, sor," was the reply.

"Know the points of the compass?" continued the officer. "Yis, sor." "If you face the rising sun, your left hand would be on the north of you and your right hand to the south of you. What would be behind you?" "Me knapsack, sor," sententiously answered the soldier. New York Tribune. THERE IS LUXURY IN TRAVEL.
