So Mr. Gilman Brown, of 34 Mill St.
 South Gardner, Mass, was told by the doctors. His son had lung trouble, following Typhoid Malaria, and he spent three hundred and seyenty-fye dollars with doctors, who finally gave him up, saying "Your boy won't live a month" He tried Dr. Kings New Discovery and a few bottles restored him to health and enabled him to go to work perfectly well man. He says he owes his present good health to use of pr. Kings New Discovery, and knows it to be the best in the world for lung trouble. Trial bottles free at Chenoweth & Mix's Drug Store.

The mill of the Mammoth mine at Goldfeld was started in operation last Thursday morning, with the prospects bright for a lengthy run on the high est grade ore.
 Last week fresh body of water was struck on the 300 foot level of the Cop per Queen mine at Bisbee. The water is said to have rushed in with great force, but the pumps have been put to work on the flow and it is expected it can be handled without much dili- culty.
 Greenlea, Tevis S Co.,, have bonded their Lexington mine to Shufeldt,
 Richards X Co.,. for three months. The mine, which is situated about seven miles above Clifton near the Frisco. is showing well in gold, and under the management of A. A. Brown will become one of the greatest gold producers in that camp.
 The Jerome News says that experts estimate the amount of ore in sight in the United Verde mines at the fabu lous sum of s750, ,0OO,0 GOO. The same paper gives the yearly product of the mine at Sl5,0OO,0O0. If this figure is correct it would represent daily out put of over siO,0O0, which of course, sounds rather unreasonable.
 In Yayapai county the Jersey Lilly mine, which has lain idle for some lit- tie time past, owing to pending nego- tiations for its sale, will again shortly be on the list of producers. as it is rumored that the negotiations for it's sale are about to be consummaied, and that excellent gold mine trans ferred to an English syndicate.
 Good reports come from the copper mines on Slate creek, about twelve miles south of Prescott, and not far from the Jersey Lilly mine. They have four claims there, and the show ing is said to be excellent. There seems 10 be very large deposit of pay ore. Samples tested have given re- turns of b to ? per cent copper, a few ounces of silver, and an average of sl4 gold per ton.
 In Del Sha basin, Glla county, D. | R. Williamson and Al Sieber are en- gagged in developing the Last Chance | and Blackbird mines, two of a group i of four claims. The two claims on which they are now working are fairly | well developed and on all the claims ore in place, and carrying gold, has been uncovered. On the Last Chance and Blackbird two shafts are down seventy and 100 feet, respectively, and in good ore, and at the various open Ings there are at least 800 tors of ore, If working grade, on the dump. They nave driven tunnel to cut the ledge 1t a depth of about no feet. They are now in ITO feet and will soon have their task. Several assays # ore from the various openings have leen made which yielded all average # $33 per ton in gold The ledge is trong and lies in porphyry and slate, m excellent formation

A big three-cornered real estate deal
was com pleted in Kansas City to-day be-
tween Robert Weems Tausill, of Chicago;
also of the Pecos valley of N. NJ; Colonel
John B. Overmeyer, of Chicago, and Gen.
Benson, of Iowa, who now lives in Kansas
City. The deal began with trade be-
tween Mr.. Tansill and Colonel Overmeyer,
whereby the immense Tansill farm in the
Pecos valley, N. M, was exchanged for the
Overmeyer fiat houses on the Washington
boulevard, Chicago. To-day MIR. Tansill
transferred back the Chicago fiat houses
to Colonel Overmsyer, and Colonel Over
meyer transferred the Tansill farm in
the Pecos valley to General Benson. Then
General Benson transferred the Newcastle
fats, southwest corner Sixteenth and
Troost avenue, to Mr.. Tansill. Each OF
the three properties was valued at
100000.
Tomorrow Mr.. Tansill who is a re-
markable person, leaves for Mexico to
call on President Diaz. He owns sixty
four gold and silver mining claims in
Mexico, and has recently organized the
Gold Hill Mining company, capital So
100000, to own and operate the Tarros
and Rosario gold mines in southwest Chi
huahua, in the Sierra Madre mountains.
He intends to secure from President Diaz
a formal written assurance with refer
ence to the protection of nonresident
mining claims.
"Mexico is one vast mine," declared
Mr.. Tansill. "There are hundreds of rich
mines where the natives have taken out
free gold for centuries by the crudest
means. We get our labor for $3.50 q
day, paving in silver, and sell back stores
to the miners, so that our labor costs ne
