How to Prevent Pneumonia.

AT this time of the year cold is
very easily contracted, and if let to
run is course without the aid of
some reliable cough medicine is
liable to result in that dreadful
disease, pneumonia. We know of
no better remedy to cure a cough
or cold than Chamberlin's Cough
Remedy. We have used it quite
extensively aud it has always given
entire satisfaction.-Oolagah, Ind.
Ter. Chief.
This is the only remedy that is
known to be certain preventative
Of pneumonia. Among the many
thousands who have used it for
colds and lagrippe we have never
yet learned of a single case having
resulted in pneum onia. Persons
who have weak lungs or have rea-
son to fear an attack of pneumo-
mia, should keep the remedy at
hand. The % and 80 cent sizes

Mining at Warren.

JAY A. Click, manager Of the
Idaho Consolidated Company at
Warren, made IA record this sum-
mer in mill building that has not
been equaled in any other camp
located so far from the railroad.
He broke ground for his mill in
July and had the plant ready to
run in six weeks. Moreover, in "a
months run he paid for the mill
besides meeting the expenses of the
mine. The mill has closed down
for the winter. 1t was not the
intention to run it during the win
ter, as it was desired to make
trial run this fall and for
that reason construction work was
hurried along. To have put the
plant in readiness for continuous
operation would have delayed
them so that trial run might not
have been made until late.

An old-Time Camp Revisited.

Spokane Review.
William Cullen, an old-time
Montana miner, was in the city
yesterday, having just returned
from a visit to Elk City. He was
acquainted with the camp during
the COS, when the placers were
first worked and produced SO much
Of the yellow metal.
"The district shows a good de-
greo of activity" said he, "and
there are indications that it may
prove more profitable than in the
old days, when machinery was not
thought Of in mining operations
in districts such as that, which
were in the midst of bowling wild
err esses when their wealth was
first found. Placer mining has
begun again, and some of the mines
are looking well, while it is evil
dent that other properties might
prove immensely rich if they were
in the hands of enterprising men,
..The Badger mine is the princi-
pal property of the camp. They
have lately put in 10-stamp mill
and are erecting saw mill. A
wagon road of 20 miles will be
finished in the spring, in the mean
time good snow road has been
constructed. Snow was about two
feet deep when ! left the camp.
"The American Hill placer claim
is credited with having taken out
1922 900 during the season of 1896
They started operations in April OF
that year. This year it is believed
that their product ran to double
the value of the previous year, but
the figures had not been made pub
lie. 1t is certain that they were
much larger than the previous sea-
sou, as their facilities for obtaining
the gold were much improved.
"On the Cleveland mine force
of men is employed on long
tunnel. This is the second tun.
mel on the property, and makes q
total of a little more than 1000
feet Of development work. The

The American Hill Placer Mine.
Written for the Engineering anc Mining Jour
nal by Edmund Juessen.

Written for the Engineering anc Mining Jour
nal by Edmund Juessen.
The American Hill Placer mine,
owned by the Idaho Company, of
Chicago, is situated near Elk City,
idaho, and is one of a series of pla-
Ger mines exploiting extensive de-
posits of aur.ferous gravels, which
roughly parallel the present drain
age system of the district. The
origin of these deposits of auriier-
Gus gravels is in the beds of an
ancient system of rivers, which
meeting with volcanic distractions
in their course shifted their plane
of deposition upward, gradually
filling their channels. Continued
deposition lead to meanderings of
the rivers on their flood plains and
in places to their DETECTION into
other channels. These new chan
nels were gradually deepened by
erosion until they now lie consid-
erably below the ancient channel
deposits, which are conspicuous
features in the landscape, forming
the Nez Perez, Buffalo and Ameri-
can hills and many of the high ter.
races of the district. Wherever
the new channels retained the
course Of the old ones or intersect-
ed them the continuity of the
ancient deposits was broken, fur
nishing the auriferous materials
constituting the bars of the present
rivers.
The methods employed in work
ing these deposits of auriferous
gravel are governed by their eleva-
ton above the present rivers.

Won Fifty, But Lost Ninety

cts not that I've become convinced
Of the sinfulness of games Of chance
and reformed" said the thoughtful
looking man, according to The Chicago
Times-Herald. Nor is it hat I have
lost confidence in my luck, or that ~
afraid of arrest. None Of these cout
have given my taste for faro the jar
hat it received last week.
II dropped into a Clark street place
with a $50 bill that had been paid me
all that was due me until the end Of
the month. Twenty dollars worth Of
chips hat I bought to start with were
gone before I fully realized what had
happened. That was all I had intended
to allow myself to lose, but after stand
ing around and watching for awhile, I
decided to give the game another run.
So bought $40 worth more.
my luck turned at once. In a short
time my pile had risen above fifty.
when it reaches ninety" I thought,
It'll quit. Having paid out forty,
ninety would leave me a velvet Of an
! ever fifty. For quite a while I ductu-
ated around seventy-fve; finally a
couple Of good bets brought me up to
my ever ninety"
And you thought you'd try just one
play more, and ended by losing all
you'd won, I suppose?"

ed in, receiving a $50 g~reenback and
two twenties. I left the place prompt
ly and those fellows who blow in what
they win; on the contrary, I went to the
bank the next morning to deposit my
fifty.
lizard luck was the teller's remark
as he clicked a little machine and
tossed my bill back with the word
counterfeit stamped through it.
"'For heavens sake I gasped, If
that's counterfeit, maybe these are.
too!' And before I thought I pulled out
the two twenties. AS I showed them
under the grating I came back to my
senses and started to take them back.
But it was too late. The teller grabbed
them ran his fingers ove them, and
returned them in the same condition
as the fifty. I realized that I had SIC
to live on during three weeks"
Couldn't you get In satisfaction
from the people<you won from"
II thought Of that. The large man
who banks called another large man
with big hands: the least Of the forms
of dishonesty Of which he then accused
me was blackmail. I accepted an in
vitation to leave before pressure was
brought to bear"
