At Lechenich, near Cologne, in Rhine
land, a novel experiment in dog-train-
ing for army service is being taatle by
Jean Bungstts, the animal painter and
animal lover. His success in training
dogs for active army drty, tecohnoiter-
ing, sentry and messenger service has
been certified to by the German gov
ernment; and now Mr.. Bungartz is ed
ucating number of dogs for hospital
and ambulance service, and these are
the so-called Hospital, or Red Cross
dogs
For this duty the sceten collie Is
chosen. sinto Mr.. Bungartz believes
that this breed has no equal for intelii-
gence, docilitv ant. fidelity. The Red
Cress uog is fitted with saddle-b bags, in
which he carries, besides his biscuit
everything necessary fbf the first
bandaging, and a well-protected flask
OF brandy. A large red cross appears
on the saddle-b bags, and 4 lantern is

dog comes In. There Is no thicket toe

The dogs are also taught to crouch
beside the wounded man. that he may
open tie bag and find the revivine
flask. The little lantern, securely
fastened to the back strap, enables the
seekers to follow the dog on dark
nights, and it moreover CONVEYS hope
to the wounded when the friendly
light appears.

THE PLACER PRODUCT OF THIS I'M
 MEDIATE SECTION.

In the eagerness of men nowadays to secure that character of mining
 ground known as quartz or ledge
 matter, no attention, comparatively, seems to be paid by the average miner to the kindred pursuit known
 as placer mining. This is probably due to inc fact that where water is to be had fer the purposes of such, the ground has in the past been worked to bedrock over and over again, and on the other haud. where a favorable location is to be had, the unsatisfactory process of dry wash ing, through lack of water, seems to be somewhat of a discouraging pro position. Nevertheless, the flow of gold continues to come in from every center in amounts that occa- sion the utmost surprise. During Q wet season, every district and every gulch surrounding this city is fairly teeming with men and rocker, and as the yellow metal pours in, it nec- essarily attracts attention and also admiration. On behalf of placer mining and the reflection it carries on this section as a gold region, it must be said that the country owes its existence and uphill life in days gone, to its sustaining influence. The first pioneers to venture in sought but the gravel beds of the country invaded, and in a few in stances immense sums of money were made by them, creating, in that day, such stampede among them who were aware of such, that only a wild and frantic rush is capable of experiencing. For it's wealth in the limited scope of ground worked, and the lease and grace" with which chunks" of gold were fairly picked from the surface, the thrilling tales told of Rich Hill back in '63, are in- teresting, and from those who

 THK CONGRESS.
 Ii may seem boastful, but it is neverthe- lees true, that the above mine furnishes to- day an uDanswerable argument in favor of Arizona gold mining, and in alluding to it, and taking it's prOdnctiyeneSS as basis, the assertion can truthfully be made that it is one of the notable mines of the Pacific Coast. Above all other things. it proves to the men behind it, ss well as it oOnyinces the most skepticai, that Arizona mines go down in depth. and with such they get bet ter. At present the main shaft on this mine is 1, 400 deep in vein matter l2 feet wide, and with pay streak of three feet. Since March last the main shaft has been Oper- ated on, development work being carried on rather than the question of considering it's yield. From the shaft the work of drifting St the .s75-f foot level is now going on. and a continuous ore body is met. On the old shaft, SS5 feet deep, sinking Is being done to reach the depth of the new one, and con- neOt with 1t also. The longest level in the mine iSi6O0 feet, being in continuous body of ore. The great depth of the Congress furnishes q very favorable feature of it's merit, the grade of the sulpburets improv- ing in their character, rather than com bining more baseness. as is usually notice able in deep mining. In short, the Con- gress, from it's extensive opening, has ten years more of an active life to face it in ore that is in sight above the deepest workings. in it's output last month, 5000 was the yield, while for June, $65, 900 is estimated. A forty stamp mill and twenty Frue Van ners handle loo tons of ore every twenty four hours, and cyanide tanks to treat 100 tons of tailings daily is now in operation successfully. The ore from this mine varies in it's grade, I50 tons that will go &1S0 pel ton, without treatment. being shipped so far this month, while the remainder is milled and reduced into concentrates in the proportion of nine to one, that will yield Sl60 per ton. Fifteen carloads of concen. trates per month are shipped from this mine, and the pay roll of the company reaches the vast sum of $20,OOO monthly Back of the past life of this great mine and the men who have had the nerve to stand by it, the day it's granite formation chilled everybody with fear, and it's future seemed to be clouded in doubt, E, M Mur phy figures conspieuously as a central figure In connection with this property.
