Patent Your Mines.
From the Phenix Gazette.

From the Phenix Gazette.
 Many prospectors do not realize the necessity of procuring a patent of their claims, before knowing them to be of great value, as certain pre- ventive of any future litigation in re- gard to the matter. Thus many work away till they find good pay dirt, and when their claim is known to be of any value, and the owners pro- ceed to patent it, claimants sprlng up on every side and a long litiga- tion begins, which results in, if not the loss of the property, so much expense as to swallow up the profits for long period. These false claim ants, by the use of money or some technicality of law, or in some in. stances pure cheek, can establish such a hold as is very difficult to shake of, as many have found to their sorrow. The only way to pre- vent to certainty, any such out come is to have the patent procured at so early a stage of development that no one will have any reason or excuse for interference. Then the properties can be worked and the the owners feel perfect security in its possession, whatever happens. Should it prove bonanza, they have perfect title. On the other hand, if it proves worthless the loss is comparatively nothing.

The Mines of san Bernard,mO.
From the San Bernardino Times

From the San Bernardino Times
 Harrison's express arrived in from Calico last evening bringing excellent news from the camp. A tunnel on the King mine struck the ledge at 100 feet from the mouth and now is eight feet in on the ledge hich shows go d paying ore all through, assay. ing from Sl00 to S700 per ton. This tunnel taps the ledge l04 feet be- meath the discovery, and proves the King mine to be permanent vein.
 Work is still being pushed vigor- ously ahead on the Burning Moscow. Twelve men are now working on the shaft which is own 30 feet in good ore all the way. A large quantity of ore from this mine has been shipped to San Francisco for reductions and yielded excellent returns, and ore is now accumulating on the dumps.
 The Walthal is the new excite ment in the camp, the ore body struck in the mine being of unusual size and richness even for Calico. There are now seven locations on this ledge, and it promises to be the biggest thing in the county.

THE GUITEAU TRIAL.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Dr. K. C.. Spitzgar, from New York, testified in the Guiteau case this morning: He had made nervous and mental dis- eases speciality; had testified as an expert twenty-five times; examined Guiteau in jail yesterpay; was satis- fled he was insane; the main features of the prisoners case were tenden- cy for delusive opinions and morbid projects, and strong imbecility of judgment. While have no other evidence than the expression of his face, 1 should have no doubt he is a moral imbecile or moral monstrosity. Scoville, in hypothetical question, asked if the witness thought the prisoner insane July 2d. Witness answered that the prisoner was in sane when he examined him and must have been more or less morbid, mentally, throughout his life, and was probably insane July 2d. Da- vidge made some very pointed in- quiries as to the standing and oppor- tunitles for professional acquire ments enjoyed by the witness, to which Scovile objected. It having been stated that the witness was a veterinary surgeon, Scoville said he had no cause to be ashamed. Da- vidge said, "Only that his treatment must have been chiefly of horses, and he must be horse doctor"
 Witness, red and excited-My treatment must have been confined to asses; when one with o legs asks stupid questions l endeavor to treat him as he deserves. Laughter
