the New York daily which created a

announces that arrangements have
been made with DIR. Amick whereby
medicines for a ten days preliminary

enthusiasm is displayed by the Record

which took place at the Tattersalls in

by-bidding and that the great 3-year-
old was bought in at $4,000 by his
owners, Richheld and feathers.
Mr., Fasig said: ~ hate To say il, but
the whole affair seems To me 10 be
much like skin game. II was un-
fortunate but there was no WY topro-
vent the by-bidding until after the sale
had been made and that was too late

MIR. Il. w. Linden, of 412 Scott street
Little Rock, Ark, writes:
II was afflicted with a severe cough
for eighteen months. l consulted sev-
eral physicians, who told mo that my
right lung was affected. I tried several
prescriptions, but got no relief. I con-
cluded to try Pc ru~na, and, after taking
the first two bottles, 1 was greatly re-

who is afflicted as I was"
Chronic catarrh, if allowed to run,
soon produces the first stage of con-
sumption, as in the above case. Pe.ru.na
will cure every patient. The only rea-
son That there are any failures is either
because the catarrh is complicated by
some organic disease or the patient does
not take the medicine long enough. The
majority of people expect to be cured in
a week or two of catarrh that has run
for ten or fifteen years. Such people are
always disappointed. Pe.ru-na will cure
a recent case of acute catarrh in a few
days or weeks, but when the disease be-
comes chronic 1T takes longer. In no
case should any one leave off taking Pc
ru-na until after writing DR.. Hartman,
as a letter from him is almost sure to
point out the cause of the failure.

NOT VNMIXED EVIL.
Repeal of tho Silver Law Booms Gold
PrOSnectiny.

Repeal of tho Silver Law Booms Gold
Prospecting.
WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-Advices re-
ceived here from the states and terri
tories which have heretofore been known
principally because Of their production
of silver, indicate that the repeal of the
Sherman silver purchasing law may not
prove to be an unmixed evil. Inquiry
made among the senators. members and
delegates representing all these states
and territories develops the fact that in
most Of them the miners and prospectors
have begun to exert themselves in the
direction of a search for gold mines, and
are prosecuting this work with UNI
wonted vigor. In many instances they
did not wait for the repeal bill to become
a law. but very soon after so many of
the silver mines closed down. as many
did upon the announcement Of the de-
monetization of silver in. India, and also
others after the president had is
sued his call for. the extra session,
a great many Of the men who had been
let out turned their backs upon the
silver camp and began the search for the
more precious metal. That in many in
stances they have been successful. the
mails of senators and members bear
ample testimony. In Colorado, Mon
tana. Idaho. Utah. Arizona and New
Mexico
Several New Gold Camps
have been opened which promise we'll,
and work has also been resumed in
many abandoned placers and in quartz
mines which had been deserted. It is
too early, say these Western representa-
tives, to predict how valuable the new
mines may prove to be, as most of them
are mere prospects. In some instances,
however, the mines are producing and
the local assay Offices begin to show III
creased returns of gold as Il consequence.
Reports from the mining states and
territories received here through the
same agency as the above. also indicate
that many of the more productive and
easily worked silver mines are
still, being operated. In most
Of these there has been a reduction Of
wages, and in some instances the owners
say they can continue to work if silver
will maintain an average price of 70
cents all ounce. Some Of the silver pro-
ducers are of the opinion that this price
will not be maintained, but that it
