Copper Mines.

A Hawthorn Bulletin reporter interviewed
Mr. H. l.. Bancroft on his way from Luning
to San Francisco the other day and learned
from him that while negotiations had not
been completed, yet there seems to be fair
probability that there will result develop
ment of the copper interests which we who
have SO long resided in the county know
only require the application of capital and
we'll informed action to cause our numerous
copper mines to yield satisfactory returns.
Now that there is likely to be some show
for the mining industries of this Coast to be
revived the copper interests in Lyon county
as we'll as in other parts Of the State will
doubtless soon be looked after. There are
some as rich copper mines in Lyon as there
are anywhere, and the only reason that they
have not been continuously worked is be-
cause the price Of copper as we'll as all other
metals has been so low for the past four
years, and there has been so little demand
for it.

Another Aurora Boom.

A.. F. Bryant, of Bridgeport, visited Au-
rora this week and found Aurorans in high
glee over the prospects of that camp. The
recent strike in the Antelope, which, by the
way, was unlocked for, as the tunnel has
not reached the point where it is expected
to strike the ledge, is looking favorable, and
considerable good ore has been taken ost.
The tunnel, in the meantime, is being push
ed theoretically. Another English syndicate
has been organized in London to invest in
Aurora mines, and the way they have start
ed in shows that they mean business. The
first installment has been paid in, and the
Humboldt, belonging to ex Governor Bias
dell, and several other mines, have been
purchased or are in fair way to be. This
Company proposes to erect a 4o-stamp mill
at their mines, the motive power to come
from an electric plant to be erected on the
Walker river. This will enable the Compa.
ny to work low grade ores at profit, and
there are thousands of tons of such ores in
the Aurora District awaiting cheap method
of reduction. The prospects are extremely
Aattering for the camp to regain some Of its
old time glory.-CAronie!e. Uni0n.

BREACH OF PROMISE.
Sensational Case in Churchill County.

A sensational breach of promise case is
being tried before Judge Bigelow in Chur-
chill county, the parties being Larrian
Walker against George Williams. J. H.
Mcmillan, Of Humboldt county, represents
the plaintiff, and R. H. Lindsey, OF Reno,
will plead the cause of the defendant.
Since the above paragraph was put in type
the case has been decided The jury by a
unanimous verdict awarded the plaintiff
damages in the sum of $4,000. The plain
tiff is family connection of United States
Senator Mitchell, Of Oregan, and the de-
PENDANT half brother of ex United States
Senator Williams, OF California. The YER.
dict is said to be in accord with the senti-
ment of the people in that county, where
the parties reside and where the defendant
had the case transferred from Humboldt
county for trial. Four thousand dollars for
monkeyng with a girls affection is pretty
steep and will probably teach the young
man to be less lavish with his love.

The Holidays.

And the colder Winter weather are now
rapidly approaching. The joyful season is
eagerly anticipated by young folks in thous-
ands Of homes, but in nearly all there are
one or more older ones to whom the cold
waves and storms mean renewed suffering
from rheumatic back or limbs. 1t is not
claimed that Hoods Satsaparilla is posi-
tive specific for rheumatism; we doubt If
there is or can be such a remedy. But the
remarkable success Hoods Sarsaparilla has
had in curing this affection is sufficient rea-
son for those who are suffering to try this
peculiar medicine.

in the field at my home in Morgan county,
Ca, pulled off my shoes to give my feet
rest. Unfortunately, walked into clump
of poison oak, and in a few days my feet
were in terrible condition, and could not
put on shoe because of the soreness and
swelling. was treated as poison oak cases
usually are, and everything was healed up.
About the same time the following spring,
1872, my feet became sore again, as at first,
and every succeeding spring for five years
brought back the same condition of the dis
ease, only each time it became more dis
tressing, because began to think it was
lifetime trouble. Finally, l was induced to
try Swift's Specific. took six bottles, and
to-day am entirely well. My improvement
was gradual from the first, and no evidence
of the disease remains. I shall take pleas

The Carson Appeal says that new cleo
trio light has been placed in the middle Of
King street opposite the brewery. The
lamp will light the beer mandatory very
largely, and also throws its rays on three
churches. Sam believes that the light is
too near the brewery and too far away from
the churches. Men can find a beer resort
with very little light, while it requires an
illumination of high power to enable good
many men to find church on a dark night.

HOPE In BECKER COUNTY.
The Democrats Might Win There
by Hard Work.

Special to the Globe.
DETROIT, Oct. 11.-Gov. McGill has
established a new voting precinct at
White Earth, on the Indian reservation,
in this county, which is said will poll
some 400 votes next November. Our
local candidates are hard at work for
this new political strength, both Demo-
Gratis and Republicans claiming they
each have a sure thing. grounded upon
promises, on a good majority there; but
as yet no move has been made to get
votes there for either state, congressional
or the presidential tickets. These are
submerged in the strife for local offices.
Since the opening of this precinct,
new rays of hope have dawned, the
Democrats are waking up, and think
they can see possible division in the
darkness, and of the last campaign: that
they may get 800 majority to help cut
down that Republican majority of $50,
leaving only 2S6 against them to be
overcome; which might with hard work
be had, and give them Democratic
county officer or two. There has never
been a time when Scandinavians were
SO willing to listen to the eXpOunding of
Democratic faith, nor when so many of
their leaders felt worn out working for
the Republican ticket. as now. o. Mos
ness, candidate for representative
on the Democratic ticket, is a
man of considerable influence
among them. and his canvass of the
county, with good local forces. might
produce a gain of the necessary 2S6
votes to make Democratic victory.
There is something in it or the Repubji-
cans. who are so sure of $4,000 or 10000
Republican majority in the state. would
not cover it over broadcast with Re-
publican speakers, this section of the
state especially. Democrats in the
Northwest believe this to be an indi-
cation of weakness and want of faith
in their cause, and that Democratic
victory may yet be won if they but
show themselves worthy of such re-
ward. Wilson men can now be counted
III every precinct where they were not
publically known to exist with Demo-
cratic sentiments before. and are COM
ing to the front as if they felt it was
duty they owed themselves and the
general welfare OF the country. Hon.
