The Cause

Of all his sufferings, "enough to kill
dozen men, was the failure of his kidneys
and liver to properly perform their func-
tons. He was permanently cured by
using Ayers Sarsaparilla. Mrs. George

cured of liver and bilious troubles by
the use of Ayers Sarsaparila. Warren

The PARROT Company's Mine and
Shelter Again in Full Blast.

Since the first of last January not
a pound of ore has been taken out OF
the Parrot Copper Company's mine,
a property which is known to have
va. t ore reserves and considered one
of the best mines in this section. It
was learned Yesterday that opera
tions at both the mine and smelter
will be resumed this morning. This
is encouraging news to the people Of
Butte, as tue works affords employ
ment for nearly four hundred men,
and disburses. alone about $40 900 per
month to its employees. AT the time
that work was suspended on the
mine, there was q large amount of
ore on hand, upon which work will
be commenced at once. During the
temporary suspension OF work at the
mine and smelter, some very material
i1r provements have been made. AT
the smelter three Bessemerizing con-
verters and q blast furnace for the
smelling of copper matte have been
erected and the plant is now COM
posed of two COMMENTATORS, six re-
ver berators, twelve c%alcineIs and two
blast furnaces. The engines, boilers
and machinery are of the very best
quality, and in fact the entire works
are fully equipped for the successful
treatment of the vast ore product
which comes from the famous PARROT
mine. About three hundred tons of
ore can be thoroughly treated by the
works of this company, and the an
nouncement that everything will be
running in full blast within ten days
il n Of the most favorable outlooks
that could be hoped for. and will add
a pew impetus to mining operations
in this vicinity.

Attitude II the United States i'm Case of
\ Foreign War.

WASHINGTON, April 80. There
are interesting rum0rs current among
European ENJOYS here touching the
deg rec of neutrality the United States
will maintain in case of war between
Russia and England. It is reported
that an understanding exists between
our Government and Russia, similar
to that of 1879, when a Russian
cruiser came into the harbor of
Eastport, Me-, when war between
Russia and England seemed inevita-
BILE and remained there three months,
until the differences were amicably
adjusted. While at EAstpOrt the
Russian ship refitted comfortably and
was provided with a..high-powtr bat
terry of modern breech.loaders and q
crew from Russian ships sent
from LONE stations for that
purpose. Vlce-Admiral Williams
Gore Jones, then q naval attache Of
the British League, discovered what
was going on, and Sir Edward
Thornt,n, the British Minister, pro-
tested, but without any result at the
time. AS there was no war, moth
ing more was said by her Majesty's
representative about the incident.
The question under discussion
by the foreign representatives here
is. "Will America permit The
Russian Government to repeat the
act, and if so, what will England
do?" They Ioint to he fact that
Palmerston peremptorlly refused to
allow the Confederate cruisers, Gala
bama," "Shenandoan" and "Flor-
ida" to even take coal in any Eng
lish port during war. If Russia
IS permitted to have the same privi-
ieges in American waters as our own
war ships, then why not those of
England?

not TO other foreign. mails. To pro-
vide for wants that may arise from a
change of rate Oh second-class matter,
or newspapers mailed by publishers
from two to one rent per pound, the
Department mas decided to issue a
newspaper and periodical stamp OF
the denomination Of one cent, the
design and color of which will be
the same as those of the present
series. They will be ready for issue
on June 1-t. The Postmaster Gen.
eral has not yet found time to found

the report of a pistol rang out. The
