Paradise 1sepOrterJ
A prospector named B. IL. Davis has
discovered rich ore about 10 miles
southwest of Paradise.
The Arthur Consolidated has a four
foot vein of ore, which averages $50 per
ton in silver. The Arthur is supposed
to be continuation of the Big Prize.
Messrs. Torrey & Ryan, principal
owners of the Gulch mine, are develop
ing valuable piece of mining property.
1t is being prospected by both tunnel
and shaft. The ledge is about three
feet wide, and carries considerable horn
and native silver, and some black sui
phurets.
Judge Harlan and Mr.. Merchant
have past returned from visit to the
Giant mine, located about ten miles
southeast of here. Judge Harlan, a
frst-class assayer, tells us that the
samples brought in will assay over
forty per cent. copper and about $50 in
silver.
Mr.. A. b Chittick, who was associa-
ted with r. X. West in contract on
the Ethan Allen mine, says that he
will continue the work in the name of
II. X West and himself, and what
is made over expenses out OF the con-
tract, he will divide, and use one-half
for decorating the grave of poor West.
A peculiar kind of fever has appeared
in this valley. Its commencement and
entire course is almost identical with
that of remittent or bilious fever, with
the exception of being of lower grade
and of longer duration. Soon after the
beginning Of the attack, the patients
body and extremities become thickly
covered with small, red spots, about a
fourth of an inch in diameter, which do
not disappear until some time after re-
covery. The disease does not appear
to be very severe, nor is it contagious.
Millions upon millions of crickets are
coming in from the north and north
west. After remarkably dry winter,
NO snow on the mountains, rivers,
creeks and springs drying up, and, on
account of which, but about half of the
arabic land in these parts has been
titled, to have this plague to come upon
us to devour and destroy what little
grain we expected to raise, makes our
farmers give utterance to very forcible
and outspoken thoughts.

accommodation train on the Central,
due here Monday morning, was
thrown from the track about 1890
Monday morning near Barton. The
engine. tender, and eight cars loaded
with horses for the government, were
ditched. The accident was caused by
horse running on the track and be-
ing run over just as the train was APP
preaching bridge. The engine, ten
der and one or two cars were turned
bottom side up, and the scene that en-
sued among the struggling horses in
the eight cara beGgared descrip-
ton. About twenty were killed and
as many more were seriously hurt,
while many more received slight
injuries. The kicking and lunglng
that ensued after the cars were thrown
from the track was irightful, and as
many were hurt by the struggling as
by the fall. The fireman, named Fire
man Mills, was seriously, but, it was
thought, not dangerously, hurt, but
the engineer escaped. A brakeman
was also slightly hurt. There were
twelve cars of horses, a baggage and a
passenger ear in the train, but fortu-
nately only the four front cars were
ditched, and the passengers, therefore,
escaped. The train that left here Mon
terday morning returned at O'Clock
with the passengers, baggage aud mail,
and among the passengers were the
members of Nick Roberts's pantomime
troupe. The engine, tender and sew
eral of the cars are almost a total

Mr.. GEORGE HANCOCK DEAp.-The
distinguished citizen whose name heads
this article died in the city of Austin
early on the morning of the sixth OF
January, 1879. In his demise another
one of the few links uniting US with
the past is severed, and the rest may
almost be counted upon our fingers.
Mr.. Hancock was y native of TenneS-
see, born April IL, 1909. He was
reared, beyond the age of ten or eleven
years, in Alabama, where he grew up
into manhood, and whence he emigrat-
ed to Texas in 1885. Here he partici-
pated in the war of Independence
was an active participant in the battle
Of San Jscinto, and remained during
the greater part OF 1886 in the volun-
teer army of Texas; was next en-
gagged, for a number of years. in
locating and surveying lands, and in
fighting Indians and Mexicans, having
been in AL the prominent campaigns
Of the time, among them the Wall and
Mier expeditions, fortunately escaping
captivity. Having performed hard
duty, both in the civil and military
service, until 1913, he engaged in COM
merce, TO which the greater part OF his
younger days were devoted, openiag
a mercantile house first in La Grange,
then in Rastrop, and in 1915 IN Austin.
Here he extended his business until
il became one Of the most extensive in
the interior of Texas. In 1861 Mr..
Hancock withdrew from sctive mer-
camille pursuits, since then deyoting

on many occasions, as a private citizen,
be has done hard work in public har-
ness. In the capital contest Of 1879
he served Austin as but few have ever
served her, devoting much time and
money in securing the victory for our
own loved city, for which he alwsys
labored well. Mr.. Hancock wss mar

II makes no difference how many
Physicians, or how much medicine you
have tried, it is now an established
fact that German Syrup is the only
remedy which has given complete sat-
lsiactiOn in severe cases of Lung Dis
aases. 1t is true there are yet thou
sands of persons who are predisposed
to Throat and Lung Affections, Con-
SUMPTION, Hemorrhages, Asthma, Sc
we're Colds settled on the Breast, Pneu-
monia, Whooplng Cough. etc., who
have no personal knowledge of Bos-
chee's German Syrup. To such we
would say that 80, 900 dozen were sold
last year without one complaint. Con-
sunptives Just try one bottle. Regu-
lar size a cents. Sold by all Drug
gists in America.
