tunnel has been re-timbered where
necessary, from Ontario shaft No. to
the mouth, and will stand for several
months without much attention. From
Ontario No. to the face, which is
within $50 feet of Daily No. l, there are
places in the tunnel which need re-
timbering. but it cannot be done with
out starting up the blower to furnish
proper ventilation, and that would in
volve an expense too great for what
re-timbering is needed.
The volume of water has decreased
from 5000 gallons to 5000 gallons per

tinue to decrease as long as work on

Although the gold camp Of Mercur
has been giving. up its wealth for the
past five years, but little is known as
yet as to the extent of the mineral de-
posits of the district, and at Mercur
the impression is daily gaining ground
that with greater depth larger and
richer ore bodies Will be encountered.
In fact, the correctness Of the the
CRY has been partially demonstrated
in the workings Of the Mercur mine,
where a shallow shaft revealed the
presence of a third vein. which has
proven to be a magnificent body OF
good milling ore, while III the Sacra-
mento depth has revealed the presence
of deposit after deposit of gold ore car
ryine excellent values, while surprises
have come to the Geyser- Marion COM
pany time and time again as work pro-
gressed in the development of this
property.
These incidents but confirm the the
DRY that below the upper layers OF min
eral in the district a splendid minerali-
cation exists, and as far as the Geyser-
Marion is concerned il is believed that
it is the knowledge of this condition
that has led to the marked bracing up
of the stock of the company during the
past few days, and insiders look for
something in the way of excitement as
far as the Geyser- Marion is concerned
within the next three months, and II
the theory advanced in regard to this
property is true ii is more than likely
that all Mercur stocks will disclose up
ward tendencies in the near future.
Deep mining will be the basis on
which this expected rise will be an
chored, and even now it is apparent
that there is something more in this
deep mining theory than most people
anticipate, and its first effect will, in
all likelihood, affect the Geyser- Marion,
as it is given out on the quiet that
in the Golden Gate mine a drift run
ming towards the Geyser- Marion is
even now very near the side lines of
this property in a mammoth body of
excellent milling ore, and at q vertical
depth of about 140 feet below the deem
est workings on the Geyser-Marion
ground.
This is something of a revelation and
is a straw showing that the wonderful
future of the camp has hardly been
grasped as yet by the brightest minds
of men who are interested in its de-
velopment; and, if the deep theory is
correct there is every reason to be
lieve that the whole of the townsite of
Mercur is underlaid with magnificent
zones of milling material.

Medicine AID.
a certain grocer of Evanston, Ills,
had curious experience lately, and
one that he will not readily forget.
Mr.. p. II. Kles, of GA Dempster street,
was compelled to call in DR.. Dakin, a
well known physician of Evanston, in
order 20 find. il possible, why he was
becoming, day by day, more danger
ously i'll. and there seemed to be no
way to stop the progress of the trouble.
He reached a point where it was a
critical question whether he could re-
cover or not, when DR.. Dakin advised
him that the symptoms indicated that
he was being slowly poisoned by the
use Of coffee. If a bombshell had been
exploded in Mr.. Kles' front room. it
would not have created any more sur
prise and CONSERVATION.
Willing 10 do anything the doctor
advised. n order to regain health, he
agreed to leave off common coffee and
take a cereal coffee. 1t seems that Mr..
Kles had on his shelves the original
Postum Cereal Coffee. and four brands
of limitations of Postum At the doc
tors suggestion, a sample of each were
given TO him, which were taken home
for analysis.
After careful trial of each and thor
oush analysis. the doctor recommended
Postum as the one cereal coffee that
contained the elements of nutrition
needed. and thereupon Mr.. T,les at once
left Of the use of common coffee and
took on Postum. His return to health
was rapid, and is is needless to say the
customers Of that grocery store fire.

grocer or his clerks in regard to the

There are hurdrais of cases, some
what similar to this one, in which
people have been running down in
health for varying lengths OF time and
have been unable to determine the
cause of the trouble. II is trouble
that does not seem to yield to medicines
or to treatment of any kind. The true
remedy for a generally run down condi-

! BOND GIVEN GEORGE DOWNEY.
After the hearing of and the accept
ance of the report and the election
/ of the board, rather unexpected bust
ness came up for consideration, being
nothing less than the application OF
! George r. DoWney for bond and lease
on the mine and, after due conSidera-
ton, the board of directors was author
! lied TO enter into contract with MI
| DOwney, giving him an option on the
property for a period of four months,
the consideration being placed at $780,
0OO or at the rate of sl.50 per share
on the capitalization of the company,
and included in this option and bond
viii be given the privilege of examina-
ton and sampling of the property ad
libitum.
Mr.. Downey's proposition was sur
prise to a majority of the stockholders,
but, viewed in the light of recent de-
velopments, it was not unlocked for
by parties who are thoroughly familiar
with the operations of the company
and events which have transpired in
mining circles during the past month,
and now it is a matter of conjecture
as to whether Mr. Downey is acting
for Captain J. r. De Lamar. whose
agents made a careful and thorough
examination of the mine a few days
ago, or whether he is in the employ of
other parties, the impression being
given out that it is for an eastern syn
dictate with whom Captain De Lamar
has no connection whatever.
AS it is, it is believed that the bond
ing Of the Geyser-MariOn will cause in
creased interest to center in Mercur
properties, and it is believed that this
is but the beginning of a new era which
is in store for the camp.

The missed Hole Went Off.

A special from the Bonanza mine to
the Democrat of Baker City. Ore, says:
A o'clock this afternoon an explosion
of giant powder occurred in the lower
workings of the Bonanza mine, which
came near proving fatal to two miners.
E. B. Pettengale and Kirk Skillen
were drilling for a new shot when the
conclusion caused a missed hole to go
off, and both men were badly cut
about the head and face, but their in
juries are not fatal.
DR.. Parker has been summoned from
Baker City and is expected TO arrive
here at o'clock this evening, a special

CHLORIDE POINT STRIKE.
Another Magnificent Body of High
Grade Ore Is Disclosed.


Frank Roberts, who came in from the
Chloride Point mine last Sunday,
brought with him the pleasing intelli-
gence that another big strike had been
made in this promising property, and
Hon. W. H. Irvine, who arrived In the
CITY from Lion hill last night, not only
confirms the report, but is SO elated
over the rich find that his friends are
Obliged to hold him down for fear that
his elatiOn viii carry him off his feet
on Monday of last week The Herald
made mention of the fact that in the
level in the bottom of the Wine sunk
from the second level in the mine, the
indications were that ore would soon
be found below what was believed TO
be the fuotwau of the deposit, which
already had been developed to such an
extent as TO show a thickness of over
30 feet and from Mr.. Roberts il IS
learned that with further development
the chute has opened out into magnifi-
cent proportions. the mineral being
high-grade chloride and bromide and
so soft that a croWbar can be driven
into it for a considerable distance
This discovery certainly adds much
to the value Of the property. as already
the men at work are taking out high
grade ore from three different places,
leaving standing thousands of tons of
tActllCLt llllil4iS oic II olL WHICH IL -
expected many dividends viii be de-
clared and paid in the future.
1t is the opinion of many experienced
mining men that Lion hill is nothing
more than one vast mineral storehouse
in which large deposits of rich ore will
be encountered from time TO time. and
developments SO far go to prove the
correctness of this theory. In fact this
has been the past history of the North
arn Light on the north end of the
mountain, and mining men who are ac-
quainted with this property would not
be at all surprised any day TO hear that
Frank Hines had broken into a body

to be John Oleson, was brought to the
hospital shortly after 8 o'clock this af-
ternoOn, suffering from terrible injuries
received while thawing powder out at
the fiume tunnel north of town.
1t is supposed that a stick of giant
powder exploded while he was holding
it in his hand, as his right hand and
arm are terribly shattered, so that the
bones are all broken and laid bare.
The works fire department brought the
unfortunate man to the hospital in the

GEYsER-MARIoN ADVANCES.
Northern Light Is Very Strong and
Chloride Point Is In Demand.


Business opened up in fairly good
shape in the pit of the mining exchange
yesterday, and stocks held their own
better than expected in view of the
general condition of the market Satur-
day afternoon.
In the listed stocks quotations only
were established, until Geyser- Marion
was reached. and the growing strength
exhibited by this security was a sur
prise to nearly every broker in the pit
although slight declines were noted at
the close of the call. Starting at 931a
cents sales We're recorded as high as
90, the closing transfer being at 9519.
Mammoth was stationary, and so was
Mercur, and when Northern Light was
called slump was looked for, but
failed to materialize, as the market
was quite firm, and at the close there
were many who were anxious to get in
at u and 121a cents, sales being chron-
icled at Is.
In the unlisted stocks there was more
or less activity, business being largely
confined to the small securities. Chic
ride Point was firm and registered sales
at 55A. but there was seemingly but
little of the stock to be had. South
Swansea was steady, and in good de-
mand at $1.25. Swansea was depressed
and inactive. while Dexter was consid-
erably stronger in the bidding and was
firmly held in the offerings. Richmond
and Anaconda was a ready seller a all
kinds of figures, while Little Pittsburg
recorded another transfer.
