Believed That Two Giants viii Soon
Be in Operation.

r. J. Anderson, manager of the Twin
Springs placer enterprise, says the
Statesman Of Boise, Ida, came in yes
terday from the scene of operations.
He reports that the saw mill has been
running three weeks and is turning out
5000 feet day Twelve hundred feet
OF fiume has been completed, the work
on it having begun a week ago. The
first mining will be done about mile
below the present head of the f1ume.
It is expected that work will begin
April with two giants.
The stream from which water will
be taken at first will run about 5000
inches. The f1ume will be extended up
Logging guich, which will furnish over
twice as much more
There is one mile and a half of pipe
on the ground and seven giants. The
first washing Will be under a head Of
$50 feet This will be altogether the
greatest placer work in this part of the
west. The bars are very rich and 1t IS
expected that the clean-ups will be
large from the start.
Mr.. Anderson states there is six feet
of snow at Twin Springs. Last Thurs
day night IA inches fell and three feet
has fallen since the 1st of March. The
snow underneath is frozen solid, hav-
ing at one time been thoroughly sat
urated during warm spell with &C

All Wise Heads

agree that the use of liver pill after
dinner, or to accomplish special results,
is an important step in civilization.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are better
than other liver pills in almost every
respect. They're the smallest, easiest
to take, most natural in the way they
act; cheapest, because there are more
in each package. We all have weak
spots. Generally it's the liver. An
active liver prevents impurities and
poisons from entering the blood.
Pleasant Pellets" have a tonic effect
upon the liver and the general system.
They cure constipation, indigestion.

headaches, and all arrangements of the

lie Roi Ore Grows Richer.

Spokane Chronicle: The ore now in
the bottom of the LIE Roi's shaft, below
the 5OO-foot level and in the face of the
new west drift, on that level. is of a
very high grade. That in the west drift
assays higher in gold than any yet
taken from the mine. Ten assays taken
from the ore in the bottom of the shaft
gave an average of 1886 per ton.
while five assays made from the face
Of the west drift gave an average Of
S136 per ton.
The west drift has now been run 1O5
feet on the shoot opened over month
ago. The width of the shoot has
varied from four to five feet. The ore
is absolutely solid and clean between
the wall, not a speck of waste being
visible It is close-srained notified
with copper, and the Rossland Miner
SAYS it looks as though it had been run

THE ALABAMA.
Expected That the Hardscrabble
Ledge Will Be Found.

Sunday morning Tom Gillian came
down home from the Alabama dig
gings, this side Of Marysvale, says
the local paper, where he and
Jake Sargent are driving a shaft.
The hole is now nearly so feet deep
and there are in evidence good svmD-
toms of the ore they expect to en-
counter. Down in the shaft 76 feet
from the surface, the workmen last
Wednesday broke into an air course
through which zephyrs pour into the
workings with sufficient force to douse
a candies glim and keep the atmos-
phere alwa-rs pure. The Alabama is
300 feet south of the Hardscrabble, now
operated by the Eureka Hill company,
and it is Mr.. Gillan's theory that they
will eventually strike the same ledge
of gold quartz. This air course seems
to lead up to the Hardscrabble through
crevices in the hard granite formation
and by sinking 20 feet more and then
running q drift the A]abama's owners
think the1 can not miss the mineral.
No tim boring is necessary in the shaft
