To the Public: take pleasure in tes-
tifying to my marvellous recovery under
the treatment of DR.. Wong Him of 6S9
Upper Main street, Los Angeles, from a
number of stubborn ailments, among
which were chronic sickheadaches. dys-
pepsia and kindred stomach troubles,
heart affection and kidney disease:
But what consider this physician excelled
in, so far as my case is concerned, was in
the restoration Of my eye service. Astigma-
tism, coupled with other disorders, was my
affliction in this respect, and, although a
number. of well-known skilled oculists in
some of the larger cities of this country
advised me I should always have to de-
pend upon glasses and receive but poor SER
vice even then. DR.. Wong Hims remedies
have enabled me to abandon totally the use
of any artificial help to sight and my eyes
continue to give such service. both for
near work and distant as is truly wonder
full To the skill and remedies of the ply
sician named can alone be attributed rev.
olution in my physical condition through
out that puzzles those who knew of the
''incurable" character of my Affections.
Respectfully, g. l.. PLOWMAN.

employ of the Dexter mine, at TuScarOra,
California, where he has been on an out
ing.
The statement has been made that the
assessment on the Little Pittsburg was
due on the 18th of this month. This is
an error, as the levy is not due until
the 18th.
There was but little activity in the
stock market on the curb yesterday af-
ternoon, as the majority of the mining
men and investors were too much inter-
ested in the Corbett-FitZsimmonS fight
to talk mining or anything else but the
fight.
Some more tests have been made on
the gold and silver placers in Mill creek
a short distance from this city, and it is
the intention as soon as the weather set
ties to put in a plant for the handling
of the gravel which is so heavily depos-
tied in that locality. 1t is expected that
the works will be in operation by the
first of May.
Messrs. Dern, Peyton. Airs. Brown and
Clark. the recent purchasers of the Wa
chusetts property on Lion hill, in ODhir

was made last Wednesday and follow
ing close upon the finding of the other
ledge.
This latest find shows three lodges
now opened up in the Baisley- Elkhorn
mine and from the middle ledge the
ore is being sacked for shipping Such
a showing is certainly gratifying to the
owners and the community alike and
proves the great value of the property
beyond any speculation.
The Baisley- Elkhorn is the property
of Mr.. r. o. Deming, of the Deming
Loan and Investment company of
Usage, Kan, who came into the possess
sion of the property through foreclos-
ure of a mortgage some two years ago.
The property is now under bond to
DIR. S. j. Barber of Portland, and but
for this the mine would in all probable
ity be sold in short time, since
wealthy parties are ready to secure an
option of purchase.

Messrs. Mcintosh, Sears and McCurtain

Foreman W. c; Clark reports the
men are now employed and it is the in

days.
The shaft at the Emerald is now down
about 500 feet. Arrangements are being
made to put on another shift in a few
days.
Sanders & Jones now have their new
assay office at Silver City fitted up in
hrst-class shape and are prepared to do
all the assaying in the district.
Captain Bard is rapidly recovering from
the severe injuries he received in the ac-
cidental discharge of giant powder a few
weeks ago at Silver City and expects to
resume work on the Cleopatra.
All but three of the workmen at the
Sunbeam were laid off Saturday evening.
The flow of water which was encountered
a few evenings ago will probably neces-
state the putting in of a pumping plant
if the company decides to continue active
development work

that the indications are that this prop
erty Will be developed in a most thor
ough manner this summer.
The syndicate has been quietly at
work for some time, and it was only a
few days ago that it secured an option
on the interests OF Messrs. Snyder and
Moore, when a margin or forfeit was
paid down.
The Surprise is a magnificent prop
erty. In fact, i is one of the most
promising prospects in the district, and
the work that has been done upon it.
although confined TO the surface, has
disclosed the vein at the grass roots
for distance OF over 400 feet, and the
ledge is from seven to u feet in width;
and while it carries gold and silver
values ranging from SO to 100000 to
the ton, the average assays are about
S17, and with the combination process
of amalgamation, concentration and
cyanide, a saving of from SO to 80 per
cent can be made, So per cent of which
will be saved on the plates, from to
per cent by concentration, and the
balance by the cyanide process.
1t is learned that it is the intention
of John c.. Logan, the experienced min
ing operator to visit the property with
in the next few weeks for the purpose
of making another examination of the
mine, and if the samples he will bring
back with him check UP with those
made before, the syndicate will begin
at once the erection of a combination
stamp, concentration and cyanide mill
with capacity of from $50 to 200 tons
of ora daily.
The indications are that Gold Mount
ain will be a lively camp this season.
The much-talked- Sewer mine is To-
Gated in this district, and also the
Golden Star, the Miller mine, the
Trappers' Pride and a number of other
very promising properties, on which a
large amount of work will be done this
year.
1t was but a short time ago that the
Miller was secured on a bond and is
to be thoroughly opened this summer.
The Golden Star is a rich producer,
while it is expected that the Sewer
mine Will begin to turn out the yellow
bOyS' within 2 short time.
