CAREFULLY AVOID THE USE of rasping
cathartics. They weaken the bowels and
leave them worse off than before. Use instead
that salutary, non-irritating aperient and anti
bilious medicine, DR.. Morris VEGETABLE
LIVER PILLS, which will not only achieve the
desired object, relaxation of the bowels, with
out causing pain OF weakening them, but pro-

From Wm. Vanderbilt, one of the owners of the Golden Chariot mine situate on Groom Creek, we learn that they have struck lead of de- composed rock which carries large amount of free gold. and if it holds out, their fondest hopes will be real ized. We saw a specimen few days since that weighed an ounce and a quarter, out of which was taken 75 cents in gold. If the lead proves one tenth as valuable as the specimens we have seen, it will be the biggest strike ever made in Arizona.

The.Kit is no doubt the king of all the base metal mines in Arizo- na, and its immediate neighbors, the Silver Flake, Silver Belt, Agua Fria, Ida May, are like unto it, It is 8 shame that no more is being done 10 these valuable properties.

The following mining items are from the Globe City Stlrer Belt of the 18th.
 The Chamberlain mine, two miles east of this place is developing finely and bids fair to be one of the mines of the district. The sixty foot levels are still in ore which assays from forty dollars into the thousands and all is free milling ore. The cross-cut on same level shows ore nine feet wide. The mine so far as developed compares favorably with the Stone wall Jackson, Mack Morris, and Cox & Coplin which, of themselves are sufficient to insure the.prosperity of he camp. There is now on the dump a hundred tons of milling ore.
 Work is steadily going on in Richs mond Basin, Every sclaim being worked shows rich ore. Native sil- yer is extracted from the west shaft of the La Plata.

If the race was for two instead of six days we would bet on the aboriginees every time as they have been known to cover 150 miles without stopping, for food or drink. These Indians are fine specimens of their race and if they are allowed to run en costume de Yuma will create decided sensa- ton.

place, and further a challenge in this
shape, the preliminari-s to be drawn
up at the time of its acceptance by Mr..

will go to Cape May and play any Sc

K. A., on Saturday evening last, was a
complete success. Frank Whelen pre-
sided, and at 5 O'Clock precisely the
gavel fell, and from that time up to

precious words are as during that time
each word uttered cost the speaker i've
cents. In order that lockja jaw might not
ensue from keeping the mouth closed
such al unusual length of time, re-.
freshments were served in liberal quan
tity consisting of apples and cakes.
During the evening the audience were
also regaled with a beautiful instru.

song by Mr.. A. T. Klett, rendered in
his usual original manner; two excel
lent solos by Mr.. Chas. Dillman, which
were raptuIously applauded, and a
rendition of the "Gladiator,' by Mr..

effective manner. An interesting fea-
ture of the evening was the champion

under command of Captain Lynch. As
they went through the evolutions of a
drill to be found nowhere in Upton's
Tactics, they fairly brought down the
