Utah's Odd Minerals.

The mountains and valleys of Utah are perfect magazines of odd minerals, some found only sparingly in other places, while great many kinds are plentiful there that are found in no other locality on the globe. "Ten- tite," soft, resinous substance found in quantities in the Bear River mountains, was unknown to the min- eralogist prior to 1890, and is even now wholly unknown in other quarters of the earth Experts who have given it thorough tests are of the opinion that it will finally become amber of the finest quality. "Ozokerite," a species of natural mineral wax, a rarity else where, is found in large quantities in this locality of queer mineral sub- stances It is an acid and water proof, and makes the finest insulating material known. ''Gilsonite," another variety of mineral wax, contains eighty per cent of carbon or asphalt in it's pure form. The Utah vein is almost three feet wide and mile in length. 1,

It is only 40 years since the ports of Japan have been opened to commerce. It is but 2s years since the first tabor saving machine was set up in the em- pire. The exports and imports now ex- ceed S115,0O0,OOO
 It is said that the quickest way to in- struct the Japanese in any handicraft is to let them go through the works and look on. Almost instantly they are able to repeat the process. The best native watchmakers get only 20 cents day.
 The industrial revolution now going on in Japan is in it's way quite as inter esting as the political revolution of 30 years ago. Until recently all the manu- featuring done in Japan was carried on in the households, and even now 95 per cent. of the skilled labor still is occu- Fied in the homes of the people. This does away with the conditions which surround the wage-earners in all other countries.

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man Offers to Send
 His Discovery Free.
Claims to be Benefactor te Weaksn.
 ed Mankind.

There is always more or less suspicion attached to anything that Is offered free but sometimes a man so overhows with generosity that he cannot rect until his discovery is known to the world, in order that his fellow men may profit by what he has discovered. It is upon this principle thats resident of Kalamazoo, Mich, desires to send free to mankind 8 prescription which will cure them of any form of nervous debility; relieves them of all the doubt and uncertainty which such men are peculiarly liable to and restores the organs to natural size and visor. As it costs nothing to try the experiment it would seem that any man, suffering with the nervous troubles that usuelly attack men who never stop ped to realize whst might be the final result, ought to be deeply interested in a remedy which will restore them to health, strength and vigor, without which they continue to live an existence of untold misery. AS the remedy in question was the result of many years research as to what combination Whould be peculiarly effective in restoring 10 men the strength they need, it would seem that all men suffering with any form of nervous weakness ought to write for such 8 remedy at once. A re- quest to H. c. Olds, Box 1782, Kalama- ZOO, Mich., stating that you are not sending for the prescription out of idle curosity, but that you wish to make ueo of the medicine by giving ii a trial, will be answered promptly and without evidence as to where information came from.
 The prescription is sent free and al- though some may wonder how Mir. Olds can afford to give away his discovery. there IS no doubt about the offer being genuine. Cut this out and send to MT. Olds so that he may know how yoa came to write him. ll-28-78t

Enc Parent of Insomnia.

The parent of insomnia of wakeful- ness is, in nine cases ont of ten, a dyspeptic stomach. Good digestion gives sound sleep, indigestion interferes with it. The brain and stomach sympRthize. One of the prominent symptoms of 8 weak state os the gastric organs IS a disturbance of the great nerve entrepot, the trsin. Invigorate the stomach, and you restore equili- brium to the grest centre. A most re- ljs ble medicine fer the purpose is Hostet- ter's Stomach BIttere, which is far pre- ferable to mineral sedatives and power ful narcotics which, though they may for 8 time exert a soporific influence upon the brain, soon cease to act, and invariably ipiure the tone of the stom mach. The BItters, oh the contrary, restore activity to the operations of that all important organ, and their bene6cent influence is reflected n sound sleep and a tranquil state If the nervous system. A wholesome im petus is likewi given to the action of the liver aud bowels by its use.

 Water sells for sl5O per barrel at the Randsburg mines.
 A deed was filed for record at Pree- colt from Jesse Davis to Joseph w. Will. son and Joseph Mayer for one-sixth in- terest in SIX placer onyx claims, one- eighth interest iD three and one-twelfth interest in two, the consideration being S10,0O0.
 MT. Pritchard Morgan. NJ. P, has left London for China, vis the United States, accompanied by mum per of mining experts. He was the discoverer of the gold mines in North Wales, and from the fac: that he was in olose touch with Li Hung Chang durioR the latter 6 visit to Enk land, 1t Is thought that MT. Pritcbsrd's mission to China is to pros pect for gold.
 The price paid by MT. Louis Nicolai of Portland, Oregon, for the Horrible snd Mexican mines in Bsrners Bay, Alseks, was s90, GOO. The lodges are exposed by croppines for 1,S00 feet, and the values range from S8 to S63 per ton. The ore is free milling and Mir. Nicolai is now having 8 twenty-stamp mil framed on the Sound, which will be erected next spring.
 Henry J. Davis, who has spent ten years on the Yukon river, wRs recent arrival at Juneau, Alaska. lie crossed the ChiIcoot pass in 1886 and has re- msinsd continuously on the Yukon since. He reports that about 1,200 per. sops will winter at Circle City, and he fears that the supply of becoa will fall short as the last consignment of 130 tone spoiled on the trip up the river.
 The Planet Saturn people of Fools Gulcb are hard at work on their plant, which ought to be in running order before long. MT. McGregor, formerly with the Congress company, is general mllI and outside foreman.

a Checker Champion.

The North American Checker Board
 is publishing the pictures and hioeraph-
 ies of the leading checker players of the
 United s ates. The November number
 has for Its frOntispIece sn excellent por-
 trait of Brewster c -meron, Jr.. who is rapidly acquiring fame as O checker play er. That he comes naturally by hIs ability to solve difficult pro oblems will be evident to tue people of Texas who are fully cogulzsnt of the eIndefatigabie spirit respected father, Brewster Cameron, ST. lo its sketch of young Mir. Cameron The Checker Board says:
 "The picture We hand you this month, although taRen 8 yeUr or so ago Is still good likeness of Brewster Cameron, Jr. MT. Cameron was born at St. Louis, Mo. on the 9th oi April, 1877. He wSs very young when his parents moved to Washington, D. C., where hls father Hon. Brewster Cameron, was general agent of the Department of Justice, un- der Gen. Brewster, during President Arthur's administration.
 "Iu October, 1884, the faImly went to Arizona, where Mir. Cameron, ST., was largely interested in cattle, lands and mines. That Territory was young Brewster's home for the Iext twelve years, the last two of which were epent attending University of Arizona at Iuc- SOB. Subsequently be compiled his studies with a course at the Los Ange les Busisness College. and it was while sttencing the latter school that he be- came deeply interested n checkers.
 "After tumbling into the ''goose walk and few other elementary traps, his tutor, 5. F. Hopewell, induced him to study book" A copy of "Lee's Guide" was procured, and ever since it's receipt Brewster has been B checker en:hsiast.
 Returning to Arizona in Septemb Der, 1894, Mir. Cameron quickly vanquished all tEe leading checker players ID his section. Continuing to meet and defeat all the devotees of the game, he was coon recognized by them as the cham pion of the Territory. Being quite 8 young player, and having already enter cd into sn active business life, the few hours that MT. Cameron is enabled to epec d at checkers are devoted almost entirely to a study of his books, though he has found time to contribute some games and problems to the Derry Newe, and also thls magazine.
 'He is the possessor of good general checker library, to which he is constant |y adding the latest and best works "n the silence. Mir.

Wolfranite in Arisoua.

ED. CITIZEN: Ia recent trip through the mining district of Arivscs, in the southern part of this county, found several localities of wolfrsmite, the heavy, dark colored mineral known also as tungetste of iron. It there occurs ss- socisted with gold 10 quartz veins which traverse the peculiar psleozoio copglon- crate of that region. The association of gold with tungsten is unusual. The ouly other instance known to me in the UDited States is at Musrav, Idaho, where, some years ago 1 found and re- ported the presence of vein of tnDg- state of lime (scheelite) in close contact with gold bearing quartz vein. The ores of tungsten are more commonly found in association with tin ores, but so far have not seen any ore of tin with tungsten in Arizona, but have found it ir abundance with the tin ores of the Black Hills, South Dakota
 The occurrence of ore of tungsten bas special interest at this time in conse- quence of demand which has sprung up for the substaece in connection with the experiments ulop the X rays.

Mines Under the Sea.

We have all heard about the British coal and iron mines, the galleries ot which extend far out under the Allan tic ocean, but there are perhaps very few Americans who know that the most extensive under-ocean mining operations in the world are earned on along the Pacific coast of this conti- nent. At Nanaimo, British Columbia, there is coal mine the shaft of which extends several hundred feet below the ocean bed at that point. All the galleries of the mine, aggregating something like twelve miles in length, are entirely under the ocean.
