RIPsEY DISTRICT.

W. A. Buell. was here on Monday to consult with w. B. Gerard in reference to the development of the Great Ari- zona Southern group of claims, of which they, together with Henry Bachmann, of Pinal county, are joint owners. The claims are located on the north side of the Gila rlver, four miles below Riverside. The showing for a good mine is encouraging, and ar engagements have been made for further development, to begin immediately after the new year opens, under the direction of Mir. Buell..
 An important discovery of ore was made by Mir. Buell. recently while doing assessment work on the Annie Rooney claim, one mile and half from the Ripsey mine. A drift was run 30 feet in solid ore and cross cut four feet, making eight feet of ore at 
 the face of the drift and neither wall in sight. The ores are crystalized lead carbonates, carrying gold and silver. Samples taken from the surface went about $40 Tn gold, silver and lead per ton. The ore carries sufficient lime and iron so as to require no Aux in treatment, and is such ore as is sought after by smelling works, and for which they pay premium. The ledge crops for about 1000 feet and is about 20 feet between the contracts of quartzite and granite. The Annie Rooney claim is owned by w. A. Buell., John Hall and NJ. Needham, each holding a third interest.

Electric Rittcrs.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited for any season, but perhaps more gen. erally needed when the languid, ex- hausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and alteratiye is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious levers. No medicine will act more surely in counteracting and freeing the system from the mslarial poison. Headache, indigestion, constipation, dizziness yield to Electric Bitters. 50c and Sl00 per bottle at H. c. Hitchcock's drug store.
 Geo. w. Jenkins, editor of the Santa Maria Times, California, in speaking of the various ailments of children said: "When my children have croup there is only one patent medicine that I ever use, and that is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It possesses some medical properties that relieve the little sufferers immediately. It is, in my opinion, the best cough medicine in the market" If this remedy is freely given as soon as the croupy cough appears it will prevent the at tack. It is also an ideal remedy for whooping cough. There is no danger in giving it to children, as it contains nothing injurious. For sale by II. 0. Hitchcock, druggist.

 COPPER IN THE SAN CARLOS COAL FIELDS.
 We received yesterday from Jas. P. Faull fine specimen of copper orc from claim located in Hawk canyon, San Carlos coal fields district, four or five miles from the upper coal field The claim is one of group of four owned by MT. Faull, J. Chambers and others They are as yet mere pros poets and no extensive development can be done on them until the district Is opened to settlement, but the ledge is strong and crops for several thous- and feet, and where ever tested has proved to be rich in copper. The ores are copper glance, oxides and carbon ates.
 MT. Faull Is part owner in smother claim in the same district, from which a 300 pound sample of ore was sent to Clifton and tested, and which assayed 75 per cent copper to the ton.
 With the opening of the coal fields good copper claims in the district will become very valuable, enhanced by their proximity to the coal beds, and the certainty, almost, of the building of a railroad to the coal fields.
