JIM IuTce
QUITSTHE I P.
Yesterday morning the entire
freight department of the White Pass
& Yukon route was thrown into a
state of chaos.
The clerks went about their work
In a listless manner and nothing
seemed to go just right.
It was long after time had been
called and still the nice precision
v.ith which the office force usually
go about their several duties seemed
to be lacking.
Files were called for, way-bills de
manded, and all the little details
which make up the day's routine
were a continuance source of worry
and all the time the question was
being pronounced, "I wonder what
is the matter?"
Had some of the clerks in the of
fice been about the station when the
train pulled out in the morning, all
this could have been forseen, and
the reason? sitting leisurely in one
of the coaches was Jim Wallace
calmly patting his bald pate.
For many, many years, as the clock
in the freight office on the wharf
strikes the hour of 8 a. m., Jim has
been at his desk ready for the trials
and tribulations of the day. But yes
terday Jim took a day off and went
to Denver Glacier.
Conditions this morning, it is re
por'ed, are much better, as at the
iisual hour, Mr. Wallace put In his
appearance, and there is every indi
cation that the wheels will revolve
once more with their accustomed
rapidity and smoothness.
There la more Catarrh In this sec
tlon of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in
curable. For a great many years doc
tors pronounced it a local disease an
prescribed local remedies, and by con
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Selene
has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. It is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It
acts directly on the blood and mucou
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and
