lowing are the symptoms oI tnc new
horse disease called pink-eye, which has
recently made its appearance: Fevers,
rigors, dullness, succeeded by swelling
eye-lids, discharge of tears, pain and
swelling of the joints, etc. The color of
the outer membranes of the eye and
eye-lids is changed to pink, hence the
name pink-eye. Death is caused by the
plugging of the blood vessels of the liver
and heart The following is given as a
remedy: Four drachms of the the best
aloes as cathartic. Dissolve two
ounces of saltpeter in bucket of water,
to give as drink, to act on the kidneys.
The supply of food should be moderate
bran mash and hay will be sufficient for
several days. If the hearts action be-
gins to fail, give carbonate Of ammonia in
half-drachm doses. If the horse is weak
when seen, give oil in place of aloes. If
limbs are swollen, battle in warm water,
rub with liniments and bandage.

San Bernardino Index: The celebrated
Armagosa mine has recently been pur-
chased by the South Pacific Mining Com
pany OF New York. The company in
tend to erect 20-stamp mill at once and
increase the number of stamps to so
within four months after the first 20 are
completed. Competent engineers report
several millions in sight in the mine
above the present lowest level, the ore
strictly free-milling and water power
available to run fifty stamps. The COM
pany intend to sink the main shaft 200
!; feet deeper at once, prosecuting the
ledge every 50 feet. The mine itself is
; wonderfully rich and well opened. Under
its former management it yielded ore Of
enormous richness, one blast of two tons
having yielded Sill, 900 and the 5-stamp
: mill $58,000 in one month. Of course
the ore was selected, yet this shows the
. possibilities of this great mine. As many
Of our readers are aware, the indians
massacred the miners and burned the
company's mill, which was the death
J blow to the old company.
If the silver ore found by the Williams
party in Alaska assays but $3.50 per tor
it will not pay to work, the great cost O.
reduction shaving off the usual margin
for profit.
