Manager Buchanan of the Junction,
commonly called Picnic. reports that
that they are drifting on the 425-foot
level and are taking out considerable
good shipping ore, says the Tintic
Miner. The ore is n lead carbonate,
and the flrst-class runs GO ounces silver.
As per cent lead and s1.20 in gold. About
a carload of this ore is now on the
dump. A great deal of second class is
also being extracted. A great improve
ment is noticeable in this property in
the last fifty feet, and as soon as the
shipment is ready the company expects
ia sink the shaft down to the 500-level.
The Junction promises to be one of the
big things in the south end.
jenkins, Wallace & Keeney have Sc
cured the contract from the Golden
Gate company to drop the ore dumps
down the upraise which has been made
from the lower levels to the surface at
the edge of the dumps. The ores, of
which there are probably 100000 tons,
Will then be hoisted and run through
the mill. II Is expected that 1t will
take more than a year to complete the
contract, on which work was COM
menced this week.

ON tho other question he contended
that It depended upon the construction
given the revised statutes of 1898. Mr
Hall was followed by Judge Hender-
son, who said that there was no such
thing AS a property right or estate in
an office.
There is no such thing as an office
de facto," he argued. ut is created ny
the governing authority and can be dis
continued at any time and that there
is no adherence at all to discontinue
ance of II, in fact, II is rather favored
than otherwise. 1t is argued that the
necessity of the occasion requires this
construction or anarchy would result,
that there would be no police control.
etc
"Tbe appellant In his desire and am
bitIon to obtain and hold this office
seems to be unable to understand that
there could be any good government
without him. or that there could be
any proper police control unless he IL
continued In office. by examination Of
the new charter 1t Will be seen that
careful provision is made for the en-
ercisc OF all these powers under all
conditions and In any emergency.
IF counsefs contention Is correct

try him has been transferred from the
commission to the Council, then he Is
still under suspension"
AT the conclusion of the arguments
the court took the case under advise
ment and an adjournment was taken
until the first Saturday in April. An
early decision In the present case is
confidently looked for.

DERISIoN AND sCoRN.
For Those Who Speak Against Popular
Habits.

One hundred years ago, ministers and
laymen alike, were accustomed to use
some spirits as well as tobacco, and
the one who spoke disparagingly of
either OF the famous nullflers of good
intentions, was sure to bring down upon
himself derision and scorn, but the
hard, cold facts move along In n most
uncompromising way. and those who
persist in placing themselves In the
road, are ground up with a more or less
degree OF promptitude.
The same conditions today surround
the drug we know of as coffee. The
self-respecting individual dislikes to
hear IN reports Of his favorite beverage,
but that does not alter the fact that
the physical aches, ails and mlseries OF
tens of thousands of good people come
from the little suspected coffee pot. Ten
DAYS to q month trial without coffee
and the use of Postum Food Coffee In
its place will prove the facts and good
bounding health Is well worth the eX-
pertinent. Postum well brewed. is de-
licious and gives one the exact kind of
food needed to rebuild the body in u
most perfect manner.

BRISK DAY IN THE PIT.
Over Ten Thousand Shares Change Hands
During the Call.
INTERESTING ADVANCES AND DECLINES.
The Washington strike All Right--Lulu
Tramway Nearly Erected-News
from Numerous Sources.

There were some interesting devel-
opments in the pit of the exchange to-
day. and the call as a whole was one
OF the most spirited and active that
has taken place for some time past.
over ten thousand shares of stock
changed hands, some going Mt advan-
cling figures and some at a decided de-
cline. OF the former Geyser Marion
may be mentioned. as the stock took
a turn for the better and sold at
satisfactory advance over yesterdays
figures. Chloride Point was in the lat
ter category, the stock being slumpy
and selling at much lower figure than
has been its portion for the past month
or SO.
Opening the call. Anchor was fea-
turelcss and recorded only passing
mention, while Ajax followed with n
sale at 32h cents. the stock getting a
closing bid of 80 cents. Bullion Beck
maintained stationary position with
bid of s5.I5. and Centepnial-E Eureka
hung high, the stock being bid for at
$2l.50 and offered at no less than SIS.
The Days held their own and nothing
more, while Geyser- Marion advanced
very materially and made sales all the
way from "a to g4ia cents
share. despite yesterdays best bid
of 9lls cents At this point on the call.
the brokers were greatly interested
and as the stock gradually advanced
much JOY was manifested by those
constituting the bull element. Galena
was not participator in the trading
but the stock showed up well and could
have made ready transfers at 60 cents,
while 1t was offered at So. Horn Sill
yer remained normal. and Mammoth
recorded a transfer at $2.02k, although
no more of the stock could be gathered
up at this figure. Mercur sold at $3.50
and Northern Light did business at
figures ranging from 20 to 20A cents.
while Utah was firm and found
taker at SIS cents. Sacramento main
tanned its popularity but no sales were
recorded.
Chloride Point headed the call of un-
listed stocks but soon received a set
back and fell from sales at 65h cents
to the position of doing business at
64is. Here, too, the brokers We're much
Interested, and the victory of the bears
had rather a dampening effect on the
erstwhile ardor of those supporting
the stock In this class Dalton was q
seller at three fourths of a cent. while
Homestake made transfers at a half.
Grand Central stood high with a bid
$50, and Dexter could have found
purchasers at 9Ih cents, the best bid
for the stock.

sACRAMENTO's ORE BODY.
Its Extent as Yet Updetermincd-Chlo
Ore In the Hercules.

In its weekly mining talk the Mercur
Mercury says: 1t is a truly magnlf-
cent body of high grade quartz ore
that Is being exposed In the mill tunnel
of the sacramento. in what is now des-
lgnated as the third vein. Mercury
reporter,who visited the strike Wednes-
day. found that the extent of the body
had not been determined. There is
simply ore everywhere, and all high
grade cyaniding ore. In the old work
ings endless bodies of ore are being
blocked out.
Sam Pollock exhibited some very fine
chloride ore from the Hercules which
was encountered Monday In the Wine,
after going through very massive
hanging wall. The whole bottom of
the Wine Is in the ore, which can be
shoveled up like sand. The ore is only
hundred feet from the Chloride Point
ore bodies, though on Il lower level.
There appears to be an immense body
of ore and the Hercules is now looked
upon as a sure winner.
