FIRE RUINS
ROM PLOW
The Alaska Central rotary snow
plow at Seward was practically des
troyed by. an Incendiary fire a few
clays ago. The firebug poured kero
sene over the woodwork and started
a blaze which nearly consumed the
wooden portion of the rotary and
renders it useless until it is built
over. Suspension of train service
had already been ordered, so that
loss of the rotary will not Interfere
with any winter arrangements of the
railroad.
There is no clue to- the incendi
ary, who is supposed to have been
some person with a grudge. The ro
tary stood on a sidetrack In the
railroad yard at the edge of the town.

A. second luster to-some tear dimmed eye,
Or e'en Impart

Or cheer some wayworn soul In passing

IF I can lend
A strong hand to the fallen or defend
Tho right agalost a single envious strain.
My life, though bare.
Perhaps, of much that seemeth dear
and fair
To us of earth, will not have been In

THE purest Joy,
Most near to hoawen, far from earth's

Is bidding cloud glvo way to sun and

bad been unable so far to obtain those
designs. Hut the workmen at once
begau to construct the chimney piece.

I Harry Callals passed away at S
j o'clock this morning . The deceased
! had long been a patient sufferer from
cancer of the stomach and the mes
senger of death was not unexpected.
Mr. Callals was a highly respected
citizen of Seward, whose friends were
numbered by his acquaintances. He
was employed for years on the Al
aska Central railroad. During the
winter of 190S-09 he served as watch
man for the Frost Interests In the
Matanuska coal fields, and while thera
the dread disease which eventually
caused Ills demis? first manifested It
self. Since that time his friends felt
that it was only a question of time
when he would be called to rest, al
though the sufferer made a brave
fight for life and refused to yield un
til flesh became too weak _ to with
stand the advanced stages of the In
sistent disease.
The deceased leaves a widow to
mourn his demise. He was 63 years cf
age. ? Seward Gateway.
Harry Callais is well known in

After reading the public statement
of this fellow-sufferer given below,
i you must come to this conclusion:
; A remedy which cured years ago;
i which has kept the kidneys in good
l health since, can be rolled upon to
perform the same work in other cas
es. Read this:
H. C. Kenton, 3!?05 N. Cheyenne St.
Tacoma, ' Wash., says: "I gave a state
mont for publication, telling of my ex
perienco with Do ana Kidney Pills som
years ago and 1 am now pleased to
confirm all I then said In their favor.
1 was afflicted with kidney trouble
and finally I became so bad off that
I was obliged to give up my work.
I had dull, heavy pains through my
kidneys and on one occasion I was
confined to my bed for almost a
month. The unnatural condition of
tho kidney secretions also plainly de
noted that my kidneys needed atten
tion. When 1 learned of Doan's Kid
ney Pills, I procured a box and be
gan their use. I felt great relief
from the first and before long my
trouble was entirely disposed of. I
have since had no return of kidney
complaint."
