We have used DR.. Davis Compound Sy-
rup of Wild Cherry and Tar for years, for
all throat and lung troubles, with the
greatest benefit. For coughs and colds
it never fails. When taken according to
directions it cures our children of group

troubles it always gives relief.

Native Marble and GraDhite.

Brother Amian, geologist and analytical
chemist at st. Michael's college, left to-
day for Sierra county, going thence via
Ell Paso to New York. He takes with
him half dozen samples OF New Mexico
marble in the development of which he
and Mr.. Monier and other Santa Feans
are interested. This marble is of three
varieties and cones from near Hills
boro, pure white, red and mottled, white
and black. The latter is the richest
colored notified marble, and the white is
supposed to be almost the equal of the
Italian product. Samples of it have al
ready been sent to Rochelle, in New York,
with view to ascertaining its value for
statuary purposes.
Brother Amian has also recently dis
covered in New Mexico a magnificent
body of graphite, but as yet its location is
profound secret.

The Metal Market.

Copper is very much like the youth in
the poem, who except getting upper" for
there seems to be no halt to its upward
march, and no signs of any stoppage in
the near future. Sanguine enthusiasts
are now talking 20 cents for Lake this
fall, and there seems really no reason to
prevent their getting it, except the single
possibility that consumption may drop
off. Lake copper at New York has
been freely sold at II cents, and the
mining companies are now quite unwill-
ing to sell below 1850.
Lead has shown rather reactionary
tendency during the week. At New York
about 500 tons were sold at AS and 4.40,
while st. Louis reported sales of 700 tons
down to 430, and Chicago was essential
ly weaker at 4.40, with very light sales.
The only cause for the decline seems to
lie in the disposition of buyers to run
down their stocks, in hope that lower
prices may rule later through increased
supplies caused by the high price OF sill
yer, but these results can scarcely be eX-
pected to show themselves so rapidly.

A Sudden Summons.

Swarthy, robust, big hearted Henry
Meister, half partner in 1.-The game" at
the Broad Gauge saloon, died suddenly
at 8 o'clock this morning, at his room in
Ned Colds home. Last Saturday he was
taken i'll with some affection of the stom-
ach and suffered such pain that, all I'M
known to his physicians, Drs. Cowdrey
and Symington, he removed the truss he
was in the habit of wearing for hernia.
Sunday he became suddenly worse and for
hours the doctors labored with him, fin
ally restoring the dislocated intestines to
their former position, but inflammation
followed, resulting, after intense suffer-
ing, in death.
The deceased was "a years of age. He
formerly worked on the range for Gov.
Hadley, OF the Eagle Tail Cattle company,
Colfax county, and four months ago came
here from Cerrillos. In every sense he
was a kind, open-hearted, western man,
generous to fault, even to the humblest,
and in his short residence here he num-
bered as friend every man with whom
he came in contact. AS far as known his
only living relative is brother some
where in Dakota. The funeral will take
place at 10 a. m. tomorrow from the
Episcopal church.

We would like very much to have the fire
department OF Santa Fe represented al

will have any cause to complain Of any
unfair treatment if they come and take
part in the tournament.
They have an old grievance which the
present administration is not responsible
for. Very respectfully,

The above from the secretary Of the
New Mexico exposition is referred to the

coming tournament is a hearty one, and

will make it point to see that our boys
are given generous treatment.
