Mercur, Nov. 21.-The mill building at,
the Chloride Point was completed today
and awaits the arrival of the machine
ry. which has been on the road since
the first of the month and should be on
the ground in few days. The building
is 2SX32 feet and rs feet high. A tram
way Dos feet long is in course of con-
struction, and will carry the ore from
the mouth of the tunnel to the ore bin
at the top of the mill. A contract will
be let in a few days for the construc-
ton Of the pipe line from the springs
to the boarding house. A good supply
of water has been obtained. more than
sufficient for all purposes.
The work at the Hercules goes steadi-
ly along and is watched with consid-
cradle interest by property owners in
that locality, as it is in ground about
400 feet below the other workings on
Lion hill.
The work of running the Woodruff
tunnel at the Northern Light is almost
completed. The tunnel is 100 feet long,
and an upraise is being made 80 feet,
to connect 1t with the lower workings
Of the mine. The upraise has been
through ground very dangerous to
work, as it is full of assures and broken
pieces Of rock, which are continually
falling down, endangering the men who
have been working there. Only a few
feet are left to make the connection.
This will permit the company to mill
the ores bearing the highest gold val
Ties.
The company is at present working
up material from the old dumps, of
which it is estimated there is about Is,
600 tons. which carries good values for
milling.
The new boarding house has been
completed. and the men will move into
it in a few days. The building is a sub
stantial lSg structure 23x104 feet. and
contains bunk house, store room, l1itch-
en-, etc. under one roof.
w. c. B. Allen sti1l has a force of men
at work on the Silver Lode. and thinks
the showing is very encouraging.

The sold excitement here is still at a
white heat. Last Monday night a tel

saying the rock had been assayed in
Denver. and that it showed 500, 7e5 in

fire. Tuesday morning your CORES

available horse in Soda and just at the
break of day struck out for the pint
where the new Klondille is located.
Everybody here knows where the

Professor Marcus e. Jones, it is
learned, recently made a thorough and
expert examination of the Gold Coin
group at Mercur, and although his re-

If is understood that he was highly i'm

with proper development it will open
ofit into one of the leading mines OF
this great gold camp.
Two parallel veins run through the
Gold Coin group, on one of which con-
siderable prospecting work has been
done. enough in fact, TO prove beyond
doubt The prominence and continuity of
tl,a ore deposits, and also that the gold
values steadily increase with depth.
The company has been working a
GOOD force of men all summer in the
development of the property, and II is
reported that it is now the intention

The lack of proper digestion sets up q
condition Of brain, that in turn shows
in worry and fretfulness. Coffee is shown,
in scientific experiments in artificial di-
gestion to arrest the process Of digestion

Persons with anything but the most
powerful digestive apparatus will find it
advisable to leave coffee out of thar

Reasons Given by New York Herald
For Cutting It's Tail Off.

New York. Nov. 21-The Herald this
morning published the following an
nouncement:
The Evening Telegram ceased to ap-
pear Yesterday for the first time, being
in accordance with Abraham LincOln's
wise saying that You can fool all the
people some OF the time. and some of the
people all the time. but you cannot fool
all the people al the time and he was
the time and advertisers can fool pub
fishers some of the time, and they seem
to be, continuing to fool them all the time.
but the Evening Telegram does mo-
propose to be fooled all the time. An
I'D to date evening paper at 1 cent does
not pay. Therefore those who are pub
fishing evening papers at / cent are either
fooling the public Or fooling themselves.
AS the Evening Telegram does not intend
to fool itself or fool the public it has
ceased publication until the time becomes
ripe when it can stop being fooled and
stops fooling"

for water to supply the city have failed,
and last night the water companys
pump house began drawing wind, and the
entire city supply was shut off. This con-
dition is unprecedented and unless the
men who are still at work with dynamite
and powder can bring water down from
four miles above in a short time, many
mills and factories will be forced to shut
down. The rainfalls for the past month or
so have been too light to afford relief

The failure to confirm the published re-
port of the serious illness of Ex-Governor
Shepherd Is the cause of genuine and wide
spread rejoicing in Washington. The init
nation that he had suffered a stroke of
apoplexy and lay in a dangerous state
came with the greater shock in view of
his fine physical condition when he made
his latest visit to Washington. The men,
DRY at Alexander X. Shepherd, as the
benefactor Of the national capital, will
ever be cherished in the hearts of Wash
ingtonians. especially those whose length
Of years makes possible a perspective view
of the lid as well as the new Washington.
The demonstration in his honor year
ago was a sincere expression Of public and
private gratitude for good work well done
The time that has elapsed since he did
his duty in this city has enabled even
his harshest critics to appreciate the wis
dom of his course and to turn their con-
domination into praise. Washington would
be nearer the fulfillment of its glorious
Pre- mise if the spirit in which he labored
animated universally today the men who
have in their keeping the legislative for
