A GOOD MAN GONE TO HIS
REWARD.

Died last Monday, after long illness
Hon. James Z. Davis, aged about 90 years
Ir. Davis was one of the most popular
meu IN the county, which is evidenced by
his long and continuous public service.
When but a youth he responed to his coun-
tr>'s call aud entered the army IN the
Sprott Guards. In 1876 whcL Hampton
nubiy led to overthrow the yoke OF oppres-
,lop burdening the people, Mr.. Davis rem
dered herculean service In 1880 the peo-
pie recognizing his worth elected him
clerk of court, which position he held to
the present. He was u lover OF Masonry
and was for several years master OF ST.
Peters lodge. He was also one OF the
strong pillars Of the Presbyterian church
and for many years was one OF its elders.
Mr.. Davis was high in the councils OF his
party and served for several terms on both
the State and county executive committees.
He was noted for his good judgment and
strict integrity and also for his liberality
aud charity. He was friend ofthe people
and many one will miss him. The fu
ueral took place yesterday in the Presby-
terian church. Rev. James Mcdowell. as
sisted By Rev. w. q. Hodges, ofhciated.
The church was filed with friends, and af-
ter the sermon st. Peters Lodge Of Masons
concluded the burial service at the ceme-
terry. Among the Aasonic brethren were
representatives from Summerton and For
eston. In the death Of James E. Davis the
public lost true and trusted servant, the
church a consistent member and the couu-
try grand citizen.

In recent letter to the manufacturer S
Mr. ". F. Benjamin, editor Of the Specta-
tor, Rushford. n. Y, says: "Ir may be a
pleasure to you to know the high esteem
in which Chamberlain's s medicines are held
by the people of your own State, where
they must be best known. An aunt Of
mine, who resides at Dexter. Iowa. was
about to visit me few years since, and be-
fore leaving home wrote me, asking if they
were sold here. stating if they were not she
would bring quantity with her, as she
did not like to be without them" The
medicines referred to are Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, famous for It's cures of
colds and Group; Chamberlain's Pain Balm
for rheumatism, lame back, pains in the
side and chest; and Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Ciarrhoea Remedy for bowel
complaints. These medicines have been
in constant use in Iowa for almost quar-
ter of century. The people have learned
that they are articles of great worth and
merit. and unequaled by any other. They
are for sale here by R. B. Lcryea, the drug
gist.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by loca! applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portions Of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness. and that IS
by constitutional remedies. Deafness IS
caused by an indamed condition Of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is lndamed you have
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it IS entirely closed, Deafness is toe
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever: nine cases ont Of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for

A Decided Success.

The most successful and pleasant So
clal event that has occurred in Douglas
for long time was the masquerade ball
given under the auspices of the dramatic
club at Ohman's hall on Thursday even
ing last. There were about fifty people
ennasque, this number being about halt
of the attendance. None but maskers
we're allowed on the floor until II
moved and everybody joined in the ner-
whirl. While no very elaborate or cost
ly costumes were displayed, some of
them, and especially those worn by the
ladies, were very neat and tasty, and the
harm onious blending of bright colors as
they flashed through the May intraca-
cies of the dance was most pleasing to
the eye; and when the masks were taken
off the bright and smiling faces of Doug
las fair bellies sent thrill of admiration
through many a susceptible manly heart
A number of ladies and gentlemen from
Juneau were in attendance, and when
the dance broke up at $3.50 a. M, every
one went home declaring that they had
spent most delightful night. The dance
was a success, socially and financially,
and it is hoped that the club WILL in the
near future, give repetition Of so enjoy
able all occasion. An elegant lunch was
served at the Douglas City hotel at II III.

Supposed Discovery of the Famous
Mine by Two Prospectors this
Summer.
Old Placers Found and Coarse Gold Taken
TherefrOm.

In con versaton with one Of Douglas
citizens a short time since we learned of
q discovery that may set at rest a long
disputed question and at the same time
add one more rich district to the many
that dot auriferous Alaska. This discov-
cry is nothing more nor less than the
supposed fl ding Of the famous ''Lost
Rocker" digg ings, the location of which
has been searched for by nearly every
prospector who has wooed fortune in the
god fields of this territory.
Early this fall two men came in from
a prospecting tour in a section Of cou1l-
try lying between this place and Wran-
gel, and stated that while there they met
palty of Two men who had just come in
from a short distance in the interior,
and that they had in their pc session
and exhibited quantity Of coarse gold.
The two men were very reluctant us to
their find, but enough was worned out
of them TO learn that their discovery was
situated only short distance from the
probably ten or fifteen miles
and that they believed the ground to be
very rich. They said that the ground
showed signs of having previously been
worked to a small extent, as they found
old pits and crude paraphanalia for plac-
er mining which had been used many
years before. The men would give no
information as to the location Of their
find, and the only clew to it, whera-
bouts is the place at which they were
first seen, which was in the near vicinity
Of Port Houghton, and it is supposed
that they had just struck the beach.
The story of the 'lost ,ocker' is ia
miliar to all old timers here, but for the
benefit of many readers of the MINER
who have never heard it we give short
