Mines in Madison,

The mines at Pony, Norwegian gulch, Pc.
tosi, and Red Bluff are being worked witt
satisfactory results. Filing & Morris have
struck a bonanza, says the Madisonian, in
the Clipper. The Pony mill will soon be
dropping stamps on Clipper ore. Work is
being pushed on the Galena mine. It is
one OF the solid properties OF the camp, and
l understand it has been stocked at S., 500,
N00.
McKittrick d Co. are taking out paving
ore from the Last Chance, and are intend
Ing to make a good-sized run at the PONY
mill as soon as they can get teams to haul
the. ore.
On Norwegian gulch everything is prom
1slnR and paying. too. Judge Duncan ia
working the Elephants Tail for ali it is
worth. Mr.. Hallahan is driving a tunnel
on bis lode in the Norwegian canyon. Spar
!ell q Lupher have a bonanza in the Gran
lite property. They made a shipment of
nne-looking ore recently.
The Black Chief mine shows a fine BODY
OF good ore, and as it improves in depth it
may safely be regarded az a small bonanza.
There Is at least SIC, 900 in sight. The
owners, Mrs. Finch and A. w, Ericsson. are
having a trial run of fifteen tons of ore
THAT was not considered rood enough to
ship to the smelter) made at the PONY mill.
As 1T IS free milling, it is believed it can be
worked in the mill here to a better adyan-
tage than to ship.
Judge Reel has seen working his mines
IN the Red Bluff district lately, with salts
factory returns. Pope, Bayliss * Mckee
have rented the Filing mill below the Bluff
and have employed Mr.. James Boyd TO
run it. "

So many people nowadays have
to handle electrical appliances that
the following will be of special in
terest to them: A telegraph IN
spector came to my station and
found that the battery was not up
to his idea of what battery should
be. He took it down and renewed
it. When it was put Up again he
asked me to favor him with a little
sugar. / asked him what he want
ed with sugar. He quietly laughed
and said, Get some. and L will
show you what it is for l got it,
and he began to wash his hands in
the usual way with soap and water,
but after rubbing the soap he added
the sugar, and Immediately a good
lather came. He washed his hands
twice, and told me to do likewise.
| did, and to my pleasure my hands
came out of the wash clean and
soft. He told me always to do SO
when working with magnesia or
copper solutions, and the nasty dry
feeling that usually is experienced
when working with battery is
quite done away with"

Mr. Smith. as well as MS predecessor,
Hon. 5. B. Dole, has given careful at

so that through their discreet manage
ment and prudent investments the value
Of the estate has advanced from q small

Improvements in the buildings and

CATION. There was some doubt about the
mill being capable OF working the pump,
as its size is such that heretofore il had
been successfully worked only by steam
engine. The Aermotor has been given
. fair test, and found TO do the same
work n 2 fair wind as the steam engine;
that IS, TO work the monster pump thirty
strokes per minute, and raise two thous-
and gallons OF water per hour. This Is
wonderful work, when it is considered
that the pump rod is ninety-three feet
long, and the well thirty-eight feet dist
ant iron the wheel. Had it been pos
sible TO have placed the wheel directly
over the we'll the work would have been
easier But as it is, another triumph is
added TO the many the Aermotor has

Condolences.

The number of eminent Ameri-
cans who have died on the Fourth
Of July is somewhat remarkable.
Two Presidents, both signers OF the
Declaration of Independence, are
included in that number. John
Adams lived to the good old age of
81 and breathed his last on the
Fourth CT July, 1926. Thomas
Jefferson died on the same day at
the age of So. The day upon which
both died was the fiftieth anniver-
sary, both, living far apart, had ex-
pressed a wish to live till that day
came. James Monroe died on the
Fourth of July, 1881, at the age of
70. James Madison lacked a week
of seeing the Fourth of the year
1886. Hannibal Hamlin is now
added to the number Of American
statesmen who saw the sun rise on
the Fourth and lived not to see it
set.
