Mill In the World.

Na,t Hill Times.
The Times his always lad the most
implicit conft nee in the permansncy
OF our mines, aud In the future greatness
OF the Hills as q mining country. It's
predictions, frequently reiterated, are
being verified TO . gratifying extent.
The last big e~nterrsise that We have to
chronicle Is only the first low wash OF
many moro similar waves to come dur
ing the next year or two. Tho enter.
prise referred to IL the organization OF
. combination. at the head Of which IL
E. Riggs, the New York million.
aire, and composed OF Q number Of our
best and most energetic mining men.
This company, which is probably the
strongest combination ever formed to
operate in the Hills, has succeeded In
getting possession OF l6 claims, includ.
ing the Rather and Pierce mines on Gold
Run and the Savage tunnel. These
mines extend from the Rather over the
divide to the whitewood. Forty thou
sand dollars were yesterday paid in cash
for some OF the property embraced in
the claims mentioned. The entire prop
srty will cost about $3.50. 900; aside from
this there il q working fund OF 5000, 900.
It IL the object OF the combination to
push the Savage tunnel through the hill
to the Wildwood. . distance Of about
2200 feet, where there Is plenty Of wa
ter. and erect = zoe. stamp mill. All the
latest improved machinery and apparatus
will be at once ordered and used In the
prosecution OF the long bore from Gold
Run to the Whitswood. The company
expect, and. in fact, feel confident OF
tapping the extension Of the Homestaks
ore body before getting . quarter Of the
way through the hill. Upon the com.
plstion OF the tunnel . dummy engine
and o train Of ore cars will be run
through II between the Rather and the
largest mill In the world.

A Hearing Postponed.

The hearing regarding the boundary line between Wallingford and Hamden, which was to have commenced yesterday morning was postponed. The reason for the post ponement was that the committee desired to visit the locality in question, and it was also found that the law required that all parties interested who lived on the line of highway in dispute shall be duly notified of the hear ing, and this had not been done. The com mittee, under the circumstances, voted to ad- journ the hearing until December 27.

 Arrest of n Well Known Sportsman.
 A well-known sportsman of this city has been arrested by one of the Chester Brothers, of Waterford, for crossing his land, though enjoined to the contrary by signs forbidding trespassing. The case will be tried to-mor- row before John L. Watrous, justice of the peace. MT. Chester may be justified on strictly technical grounds, but his action is not calculated to strengthen the esteem in which he is already held by those who follow the dog and have occasion to save themselves many weary steps by crossing the Chester farm. No damage is alleged in the complaint beyond that which the law assumes to follow the mere setting foot on the land of anot her without authority or lawful justification. A man has unquestionably the right to forbid the intrusion of others upon his own domain, but it has long been the custom in this vicin- ity to allow gunners and fishermen the privi- lege of crossing the country at any available spot, and we have never heard of any abuse of that privilege. In this instance especially the action of MT. Chester savers of the dog's conduct in the manger.-Neao London Tele- 07una NoU 22

CoUeHs.-Browns Bronchial Troches are used with advantage to alleviate coughs, sore throat, hoarseness and bronchial affections. For thirty years these troches have been in use, with annually increasing favor. They are not new and untried, but having been tested by wide and constant use by nearly an entire generation, they have attained we'll merited rank among the few stable remedies of the age. -.=
 THE THRoAT.-Brown's Bronchial Troches act directly on the organs of the voice. They have an extraordinary effect in all disorders of the throat and larynx, restoring healthy tone when relaxed, either from cold or over exertion of the voice, and produce clear and distinct enunciation. Speakers and singers find the troches useful.
 A cough, cold, catarrh or sore throat re- quires immediate attention, neglect often. times results in some incurable lung disease Browns Bronchial Troches will almost inva- riably give relief. limitations are offered fo- sale, many of which are injurious.
