The three-year-old boy of J. A. John
son, OF Lynn Center, H., is subject to
attacks of Group. Mr.. Johnson says he
is satisfied that the timely use of Cham
berlaln's Cough Remedy, during a severe
attack, saved his little boys life. He is
in the drug business, member of the
firm Of johnson Bros. of that place and
they handle great many patent medi-
cines for the throat and lung diseases.
He had all these to choose from, and
skilled physicians ready to respond to
his call, but selected this remedy for use
in his own family at time when his
child's life was in danger, because he
knew it to be superior to any other, and
famous the country over for its cure OF
Group. Mr.. johnson says this is the
best selling cough medicine they handle,
and that it gives splendid satisfaction in
all cases. Sold by G. W. Kinney & Co.
of this place and the Commercial Co.
OF Lovelock.

How He Told.

Some white men were joshing Cap
tain Dave of the Piutes the other day
about his claim that he could tell all
the various tribes of Indians, but they
came out decidedly second best. One
question put him was as follows:
Captain Dave, doesn't Shoshone look
pretty much same as Piute?"
"Yep."
doesn't Shoshone dress all same
Piute?"
"Yep."
"Then when Shoshone talks Piute
how you tell him?"
"When Dutchman talks English how
you tell him?" came in faultless pro-
nuncation.-Carson News.

EAGLEVILL MINES

W. S. Bacon of Eaglexille, Churchill
county, Nevada is in the city with sam
Piles of ore that are being mark ered from
that locality which gives promise OF at
tracing much attention upon the open
ing of Spring. To those who prospect
ed the locality at a patriarcha1 period it
was known as Hot Springs district At
the time 1t gave promise of develop
ing into most productive camp,
but those who were hoisti nS fortunes
out of the Comstock lode, from which
Eagleville is sixty miles distant, were
too busy in that region to give the latter
much attention and for many years the
opportunities there were neglected..
Then, again, it milling PROPOSE
tion, and while a small plant was re-
moved from Austin, Nevada, and an
attempt made to save the metal with
that, it was very lame affair and moth
ing except to show that gold was present
in good quantity was ever accom- pills he'd.
Some years later Mr.. Bacon and his
associates went at the system al tic devel-
opment of the Eagle group and it's ex
ploration has been with most &ratify ing
results. At the grass roots they had
found ore that averaged over 1900 per
ton in gold according to the results from
forty y-eight sacks that were SIN ipped to
San Francisco. From this point the
vein was followed to depth of 300 feet
and then tapped by tn N mel w In ich had
been driven 500 feet into the hills The
pay streak varied from eigh teen to
twenty-iour inches and nothing of less
value than 500 per ton n as been broken
down unless it was 400 tons than now
lies on the dump awaiting a mill with
which to handle it. The shipments THAT
have been divided between Salt Lake
and San Francisco have yielded enough
to meet the requirements of the payroll
and MIR. Bascon estimates that blocked
out in the Eagle at this time are. no less
than 1000 tons that will average from
$lS to $25 per ton in gold The effort is
to show up ore enough to justify the
erection Of mill and 10 that end MIR.
Bacon and his associates will continue
work throughout the Winter. The Sam
piles brought in by him afford evidence
OF very fine milling proposition with
water enough at distance of TIN rec
miles to furnish all that nay be req quired
for the operation of plant.
Among his neighbors are Witch man &
Mckennett, who are developing the
Golden Bird group W hich one sh aft
has beeen put to depth of z5 feet, a
second to depth of 30 feet. In each OF
these gold-bearing quartz has been
encountered and the owners now have a
lot sacked that will yield over 500 in
gold per ton.
Percival & Kenyon are reported work
ing the Great Eastern and TAX ing out
ore. Some OF it is very rich and ia bel ng
shipped to the shelters of this valley
and California; while everything afford
ing value less than 500 rs com Initt ed
to the dump to await the erection of a
mill.
The camp is but thiFty rpiies from a
railroad and looks to Mr. BrcOn very
