Known to mo with the very best results Verj truly , G. W. ATKINSON.
Tiilly fifty per cent of the people of the United States are Buffering from ca
tarrh In some degree or phase There Is scaicely a homo In the land entirely free
from th's dlBoase. Ono or more members of every household either has catarrh or
tome other allniPtit dliectlj dependent upon catarrh. Catarrh Is rapidly becom
ing u notional scourge Its existence In the sjstem complicates and Intensifies
any ailment a person ma > happen to have. With these alarming facts comes thu
encounmlug news that Po-ru-na cures catarrh. Cures It permanently , cures It by
eradicating It entirely from the systum Po-iu-na Is an luteiniitlonal systematic rem
edy , i caching thu disease at Its fountaln-lioad. It cures catarrh of the head , lungs ,

WASHINGTON. Mnrch 17 With In
finite dlfllculty the Jbln * commission
ers had succc < xlcd in reaching an ngrcc-
mont to which nil could subscribe , looking
to the settlement of this boiindarj question
and of the conflicting mining Interests gen
erally Within a vveelt the llrlttsh Colum
bia legislature had passed nn act nulllfjlng
completely all of the Interests wlilch Amer
ican minors ( had an painfully and expen
sively acquired In the new Atlln district
This caused great Irritation nnd wns the
subject of considerable discussion before HIP
commission. H was believed , however ,
that with the ratification of the treaty
which was expected to be negotiated , car
rying with It the provision for the settle
ment of the mining controverlcs , the ob
noxious law would bo vacated by the su-
pel lor force of the treaty. Apprehensive
of trouble In Hie event of the failure of
that instrument the two governments the
t'nlted States and Great Britain reached
an agreement In the nature of a modus vl-
vend" ! , roughly defining by certain land
ninths the boundary between the British
and American possessions from the Klon-
dlKii section down to British Columbia.
Ilollliilnrlrs lln\c IliM'ii Mined.
The ofllclals here cannot tell from the
vacua report brought by the Vancouver
dispatch where the collision took place be
tween the American and Canadian miners ,
so it is impossible to tell who is at fault.
It IB said , liowcver , that the Canadians
have been partlculaily aggie-salvo In this
boundary matter right along , that they
have several times advanced the lines of
the boundary claimed by them and that In
each case tills extension coincided or fol
lowed very closely the discovery of new-
gold fields In the vicinity.
The Indications are that the United States
government will bo obliged to take some
steps to police Its side of the border In
Alaska in a method corresponding lo the
Canadian sjstem There will bo nothing
threatening In the adoption of such i
course- , for in the official belief there is
much less risk of conflict between the reg
ularly appointed nnd responsible bodies HKe
the Canadian mounted police on thu one
side and the United States military forces
on the other than between bands of miners
as opposed to the Canadian police. Consequently
quently It Is probable that as soon as Col
onel Ray arrives hero from Porto Rico , or
perhaps oven before , the War department
will take steps to organize a ( > ultable force
for tills purpose. Tiho reports sent by the
United States army ofllclnls in Alaska refer
to the Poicuplne river locality , where this
conlllct Is reported Lieutenant Richardson
reported that eighteen prospectors had gone
up the Porcupine and Salmon rivers He
gave in detail the geography of the Porcu
pine and its sudden and dangerous floods
In the spring , but he did not indicate that
any question existed as between the Amer
