RAMSEY CITY.

A New Townsite Plated at Five
Mile Pass, Camp Floyd.
The Five Mile Pass syndicate have
surveyed and plated a townsite at
Five Mile pass. five miles west of Fair
held, in Camp Floyd district, and two
and a half miles from the Sunshine
mine. The syndicate, composed of
Ramsey, Buhring and Kellstrom, in
tends to incorporate within few days,
when its especial attention will be
given to the upbuilding Of the new
camp, which will bear the euphoneous
title Of Ramsey City"
Already arrangements have been per-
fected for the establishment of lum-
Der yard and general store in this
city in embryo, and as the Union Pa
cfflc intends to connect Five Mile pass
with Sunshine by a spur or switch,
and the new town is surrounded by
many valuable mining locations, the
future growth Of the place is undoubt-
edly assured, and there is reason to
believe that capitalists, recognizing the
opportunities offered there, will soon
avail themselves of them.
Half a mile north of Ramsey City
is the Provo group of claims. From the
bottom of an eighty-foot shaft on this
property ore has been taken that shows
values of from $40 to $3.50 in gold to
the ton, While the Mohawk, Sterling
and Elko groups are in the same To-
cality The Camp Floyd property, half
a mile south, is also making a most
creditable showing and can already
boast of So and 81 ore.
The whole country around Five Mile
pass is staked out, and a great deal
of development work is going on there,
and if everything comes out according
to indications Ramsey City will even
tually become the central figure In the
midst of a big mining area.

AsTHrIATIC HORRORS.

ASTHMA is a spasmodic affection of
the bronchial tubes, which gives rise to
serious distress and difficult breathing.
Cause.-The most common primary cause
OF asthma is catarrh, which affects the
nose, the throat and the bronchial tubes,
often coupled with strong, hereditary
faint. The disease is closely allied to
govt and rheumatism and may come on
at any period of life.
SYMPTOAGS-There is a constant dread
of an attack; often depressed spirits,
with headaches, and a stUffy feeling
about the head throat and lungs The
difficult breathing and wheeling often
comes on at night, and the patient has
to sit up in bed and rest his hands
upon his knees, with his mouth wide open.
There is a dry hacking cough at times
and the lungs squeak like new sad
die. The pulse is weak and rapid and
the patient feels like every breath would
be his last.
ONE WOE DOTH TREAD UPON
ANOTHER'S HEELS, so FAST THEY
FOLLOW" So it is with asthma, one
attack quickly follows another, the poor
sufferer strength is exhausted, his
hope is gone and his fortune squan-
dered. His family physician has become
disguised and rather than acknowledge
defeat and turn the patient over to
some competent specialist he advises a
change of climate; so it was with Mrs.
j. NJ Nolan who resides in the beautiful
and growing suburb of Salt Lake City,
known as Oakley, where her husband is
owner and proprietor of the Oakley Cash
Grocery and Meat Market, and we'll
known to almost every resident of Salt
Lake City.
In conversation with the writer. Mrs.
Nolan says, Il have been the greatest
sufferer. l have had asthma for sixteen
years in the very worst form Often so
bad that death would have been a vel
come visitor. l have moved from pillar
TO post, from one state to another, in
the vain hope that a. change of climate
would do me good. l have spent a nice
little fortune trying to obtain relief. I
have been confined to my bed for weeks
and months, thinking every breath would
be my last. | had tried every known
remedy-had consulted and treated with
many eminent physicians. but all failed
to give me even the slightest relief I'M
Ill I went to Dr.. G.. W. Shores of the
plan of reasoning was so plain and sim
pie, his kind and encouraging words in
spired confidence and [ took a new lease
on life, and l regard the marvellous re-
suits little less than a. miracle. I owe
it all to Doctor Shores. His treatment
and medicines are truly wonderful. The
first course of medicine helped me-the
second relieved my distress and 1 felt
that the third had entirely cured me.
It's wonderful can't praise Doctor
Shores enough.
In conclusion. permit me to say If
you have asthma, catarrh bronchitis or
any complicated throat and lung trouble
take a drive or send a. friend out to
Oakley addition where / reside, and 1
will be delighted to explain and recon-
mend DIR. Shores and his most success

AS predicted in these columns a few
days ago, a deal has been consumma-
ted whereby the townsite of Mercur
and the two mining claims on which
the town is located, have passed into
the hands of Colorado capitalists, who
will at once take measures to open UP
another Mercur or Golden Gate mine
right in the very heart of this thriving,
growing and busting camp.
There are thousands of people who
are able to see a good thing after 1t
is too late to catch on, hut there is
only one man in ten thousand who is
quick enough and smart enough to
peer into the future to that extent
that he can discern rich openings
where others would see nothing, and
Edwin w. Senior is one of these; and
when he looked the camp of Mercur
over n his minds eye, he saw his
opportunity and, With his associate,
". Z. Ladd, was quick to seize upon
Ii, with the result that Colorado cap
itaksts, as above stated, have pur-
chased the townSite OF Mercur, with
the two mining claims upon which the
townsite is located, the Baby Elephant
and June Bug lodes. with the intention
of developing the claims until another
producing mine has been added to the
list of Mercur's bonanzas.
Quick to act. the Colorado purchas-
ers have already shipped a f1rst-cldss
hoist TO Mercur, upon the arrival of
which active work will begin in the
development of the property above
mentioned, and IS the new owners are
thorough, practical mining men, who
have made a success Of mining in
Colorado, the future Of the enterprise
is assured, for the manipulation of
which a company is to be organized
under the name Of the Mercur Deep
Mining and Milling company, the ar
ticles Of Incorporation Of which are
now being prepared.
This company will not only develop
its Mercur property, but also other
Camp Floyd claims in which it is in
terested
The unsold lots in the Mercur town
site will from now on be handled by
Messrs Senior and Ladd, who have
opened fine offices in that camp and in
this city, and it goes without saying
that they will never let an opportunity
pass that carries with it a chance to
do anything for the upbuilding of the
town and district without availing
themselves of it, and we believe that
the people Of Mercur will find that a
more enterprising or progressive man
than Mr.. Senior and his associate
never before obtained a footing in
that camp.
The Baby Elephant and June Bug
lodes are surrounded by such produc-
ing mines as the NIercur, with its $780,
600 in dividends already paid; the Col
den Gate, with its millions of ore
blocked out and in sight; the Marion.
great paying proposition, and other
properties Of known value: and, being
thus favorably located in the very
center Of the great ore zone Of the
camp, there can be no chance what
ever Of a failure in sinking for ore
on them, and it is only a question of
time before the new company will be
on dividend paying basis, in conse-
quence OF which its stock should be
gilt-edged and in great demand.
In the consummal N of the deal. as
stated above, Messrs. Senior and Laid
have retained an interest in the town
site as well as the mining features of
the enterprise.

enade Last Evening.
AT GAO last evening, at the Continen-
tai Market, Miss Zoe Clayton, and her
cocker spaniel, Beauty began the
task of walking 500 miles in 500 hours.
Miss Gayton made the first mile in
exactly fifteen minutes and with the
spaniel retired to her dressing room

must be covered.

For the first twenty-four hours the
walker has a picnic, after that time
things get more monotonous- Inc
most a person can sleep in one hour
is forty-three minutes and that only
allows a minute for leaving the track
and going to rest and the same period
for getting up.
Miss Clayton is a walker of interna-
tional fame. She has undertaken and
carried to a successful finish many
feats of pedestrianism, among which
was the walking from Los Angeles to
Tombstone, a trip through country
where water is as scarce as it is in
the cline where Dives eternally petit
lions Lazarus for drop to cool his
tongue. This was in 1884. She made
the distance in six weeks, winning
Sc. OOO The longest distance she cover
ed was forty-f1ve miles in one day; the
shortest eleven miles. She won the
championship of the world by walk
ing from San Francisco to New York
City in 154 days, securing prize of
$4,000 Miss Clayton also walked from
Grand Rapids, Mich, to Kansas City,
arriving twelve hours ahead of time
Her latest venture was to begin the
walking of the globe. This was on a
wager of $4,000 to $4,000, the Olynn-

larger amount she could perform the

she was obliged to stop when she
reached Green River This accounts
for her presence in this city.
Miss Clayton is pleasant woman,
about the medium height and talks
very freely about herself. She is about
40 years of age and was at one time an
actress of considerable celebrity. She
began walking as stated in 1884 and
has continued ever since.
The house last evening was not as
large as could have been wished for,
but first nights in walking matches
never are. Prior to her goin on the
track a mile race, a half mile race and
a sack race were INDUCED in, in which
the members of the Simpson family
were the victors. During the coming
week. races will be had and a tug-of-
war provided for. A gold medal for
