WHERE IS IT?-In 1868, a stage
was robbed near Blackfoot, of over
800 pounds of gold dust and the rob-
bers were captured soon after and
sentenced to 20 years at the Deer
Lodge penitentiary, but they had
succeeded in burying their plumber
before being captured. Numerous
parties have searched for the conceal
ed treasure but without success.
Now, as the time draws near when
the prisoners will be set at liberty,
arrangements are being made to
watch them go to the place where this
wealth is buried Chronicle.

AVALANCHE: The Empire mine /
never looked better than now, and is |
well worth seeing, for body Of oreI
averaging Is inches in width, and
about 100 feet in length, has been ex-
posed to view, which will mill from
800 to $500 per ton, the ore being
filed with gold and silver. A con-
siderable quantity Of rich ore has al
ready been extracted, and will be
hauled to the mill at once.-Stoddard
y Townsend have the pump placed in
the Morning Star mine the engine
also in place, and will soon blow the
whistle. The shaft is about 225 feet
deep, and levels run each way in good
ore, it is said. 1t was on account of
water that More & FOCUS shut the
mine down nearly twenty years ago,
and strange to say, notwithstanding
the good ore in the ledge, it has new
er been worked to any extent since.
The ore is rich, and there can be no
doubt about the property paying.-The
South Mountain mines are once again
attracting attention of miners and
mining men. We understand that
some gentlemen from Wood River
have gone there to work or prospect
the lodges in that district. They have
examined the ore and find it Of good
quality, and, we understand, are well
pleased with the country formation
and the lodges. We know of no bet
ter galena mining camp in the terri
tory, and verify believe if thoroughly
prospected that mines of great value
will be developed.-We understand
that the Empire State mine, on Flor
ida mountain, is now being worked
by Messrs. Hastings, Brennan and
Donnetly brothers.

miserable" Is, indeed, the proper word; for
what complaint is there capable of making its vic

forms of malarial trouble can do? Other diseases
may Kill quicker, and possibly cause more acute
agony for brief time but in their ability to
transpose human life into series of wretched
dragging, toyless days and nights malarial disor-
ders stand first and stand alone. Dr. Stearns adds.

Noyn Scotin Gold.

Nova Scotia is not generally regarded as
, gold producing country, yet since the
discovery of gold in 1860 it is said its mines
have produced over $8,000,000 worth Of
bullion. The mines are leased for twenty
one years, with privilege of renewal, on
royalty of per cent on the gross yield.
Strict account is kept by the mines office
with every mine in operation and every
person holding prospecting license. And
from these records it appears that since 1860
for every days work expended in the gold
fields, both for mining and prospecting, an
amount of bullion has been produced equal
to $3.50 per day per man, counting wages
at an average of $1.30 per day. The gold
is of very fine quality, being worth on an
average over $685. per ounce, and FIRE.
quently 800. The auriferous rock is flee
milling and yields from SIS to $500 per ton.
Materials for working the mines are very
cheap. Wood averages $l75 per cord,
lumber Sc per thousand. and coal $3.50 per
