She made no defense when brought into

A
SIS Nursing
liz for IS cents.

The "Best Nurser" is worth
$25 to any mother-we think
more. Why? Because it will
prevent wind-colic, collapsed nip
pie, cross baby.
The plan of this bottle is simple,
yet scientific. In the bottom of
the bottle is a valve. AS fast as
the milk is drawn the valve
allows the air to enter, this pre-
vents the child from sucking in
wind because the air comes in back
of the food, not through the
nipple, which causes so much
wind-colic.
If there were only a few "Best
Nursers" they would, be worth
$25 each, but we will give you
all you want for 25 cents apiece,
complete with nipple and valve.

FAR AND AWAY AHEAD.

The new features of the '97 Reming
ton are by this time familiar to al
most every wheelman and wheelwo-
man in Honolulu, but for the benefit
of those who have not yet had an OPP
portunity to visit our store, we give
below the most noticeable improve
ments, aside from those previously
mentioned:
In the ''97' Remington the gearing
has been improved by making the
sprockets of a cycloidal cut, with the
addition of a fiange or shoulder, To
carry the side plates of the chain, thus
distributing the friction and prevent
ing the vibration, which is very notice
able in a chain running over the orGi-
nary sprocket.
In the cranll-hanger bearings the
new form of construction is such thai
by the removal of one screw and the
left crank the entire bearing can be
taken out intact, without displacing
the balls. The advantage of this for
the purpose of cleaning or adjusting
bearings is obvious. The bayouet-
shaped crank, which is original with
the Remington bicycle, is retained IL
the new models, as it is undoubtedly
stronger than any other form of crank
obtainable
Liberal option of tires, saddles ana
gears will be given on the new model.

IMPORTANT MINING DEAL.
A Group of Nine Copper Claims
 Bonded to Boston Capitalists.

Negotiations for the bonding of a group of copper claims, which have been pending for some time, were closed yesterday The claims are To- cated in tho heart of the Globe copper belt, adjoining the property of the United Globe, on the north, splendidly situated for mining and smelling pur- poses, easily accessible by good wagon road, and considered as among tho few important groups of claims on the market in the immediate vicinity of Globe. The owners of the claims are B. Mccoy, Jas. H. Pascoe, Jas. Graham, Hugh Conahan, Jas. Ander- son, W. J. Mallory and Morris Klein. There are nine claims in the group. and B. Mccoy is part owner in all of them. c. H, Cutting, in the employ of the Old Dominion Copper company, is the person to whom the bond is given, and he is supposed to represent Boston parties, the prospective pur- chasers.
 The bond runs twelve months; $40, : 900 IS the price to be paid for the property, 5000 to be paid in cash. The bond stipulates that 5000 is to be expended in development work, no more, no less. Several of the claims are fairly developed, showing well de- fined lodges assaying high in copper, of character desirable for smelling.
 The deal is considered one of the most important made in Globe district for several years. The identity of the intending purchasers has not been re- vealed. They may be the Old Do- minion Copper Mining and Smelling company, or other parties of prom thence in the mining field, but that is of minor importance, as whoever they may be. assurance IS given that they have ample means and are prepared to operate upon a large scale should tue partial development of the property meet their expectations. The bonds have been forwarded to Boston for ap- proval, and upon their return will be placed in escrow.
 The deal is important in connection with those recently made, and others now pending, as evidence of the conf dence reposed by mining men and capitalists in Globe district as field for investment. Millions of dollars are invested in Globe copper mines, and with the completion of the railroad this is bound to become one of the most important copper mining districts in the United States.

CHA COUNTY GOLD MINES.

The new district on Houdon moun- tain and Gun creek is destined to make Gila county one of the largest gold producers in the territory. This district is less than one year old, and from the quantity, quality and the ex- traordinary facilities for working the ores can not be excelled in the United States. A brief description of some of the most important prospects in this district might be acceptable-might make interesting reading for some of the friends who are afflicted with the Klondyke fever. Three claims of this district, the Gun Creek, Accepted and Refuse, have recently been bonded for good figure. The leads carry s2OO in gold and 10 per cent copper. These leads vary from ten to thirty feet wide. The owners are David Gowan, P. G. Ellison and Azbill Bros. The Azbill Bros. have twelve other claims, among which are the Blue Bird, with 8 ledge three feet wide, carrying s225 per ton in free milling ore; the Goldside, with ledge two feet wide, which assays s2O; the North Star two claims), with ledge twelve feet wide, and ore that goes S67 per ton. The Unexpected has a ledge two feet wide that assays SIS per ton. There is another ledge thirty feet wide that carries s24 in gold, silver and copper. Another claim, called the Winchester, assays 20 per cent copper. A mill is promised this dis trict before the snow flies. Besides the claims mentioned there are num- Der owned by Miller and Gilleland, Brunson Bros, w. H. Beard and others. These mines are ten miles east of the main county road, but at present can not be easily reached with wagon from this side, but there is a road from Holbrook to Pleasant Val ley, natural road to the mines. Water and wood are no object to this district--they have an abundance; in fact, timber must be cut down to make room for a road and for the mills Cor. Pick and Drill.

A HEAVY STORM.
4 Cloudburst lnundates the GiIa Val- ley, Graham County-The
 Railroad Damaged.

A violent rain storm visited the Gila valley, Graham county, last Thursday evening, inundating the valley and doing serious damage to the Gila Valley railroad. We are in. debted to R. s. Maclay, at Geronimo, for particulars of the storm, wLich he describes as ian awful cloudburst, the like of which was never before known in this section." The storm seems to have been general all the way up the Gila valley, and the river was very high. The Goodwin wash, two miles from Geronimo, ran sixteen feet high and washed out eleven piles from under the railroad bridge. The bridge across Black Rock wash, above Fort Thomas, was also damaged. There were also washouts at Stafford. Solomonville and along the track elsewhere between Geronimo and Bowie. The damage to the railroad is estimated at about S3000. Railroad Superintendent B. Jones employed all the men to be had to repair the wash outs, and hoped to have trains run ming to Geronimo yesterday or today. Mails for Geronimo, San Carlos and Globe have been transported on hand cars. which was difficult owing to the many breaks in the track. Freight teams loaded for Globe, detained at Geronimo by the flood, pulled out on the morning of the 20th inst.
 Last Friday D. B. Lacey sent the mail by driver who arrived at the San Carlos crossing the same evening and camped at the river until 10 o'clock a. m. Saturday. The boat used to ferry the mails and passengers was on the San Carlos side, and as no one appeared to fetch the boat across, the driver returned with the mail to Geronimo. The Gila at San Carlos has been high for some time, and on Friday and Saturday last was raging torrent. Frank Martin, freighter, had two horses drowned while at tempting to cross the river at San Carlos week ago last Monday.
 Only meagre reports had been re- ceived from the valley, but sufficient to indicate serious damage to farms. Fences and ditches and hay in fields around Pima were washed away. The flood in that vicinity was unprece- dented.
 On Thursday night grand ball was given at Thatcher to celebrate the marriage of Karl Gulf and Miss Maud Porter, and that of James Porter and Miss Reby Claridge. The contracting parties being popular, the attendance was very large, and when the dance was on in full blast rain began to fall in torrents. Buggy and saddle horses of guests tied in the yard were soon belly deep in water, and as it was i'm possible for guests to leave for home, the ball continued until the sun was high on Friday morning.
