A NEW MINING BOOM.

At times for many years Bingham has
been threatened with good mining excite
ment. The first time was in the tiftles,
few nuggets Of gold worth in all less
than $25 were found in Carney brook IN
Moscow, eight miles above Bingham.
The story of the find grew and multiplied
until rush of people from all over the
state went only to meet with alsapponO-
ment.
In 1865 @ party of New York miners,
returning from Canada by way OF B!ng-
ham discovered what they claimed to be
rich vein on Baker mountain in MOSCOW.
A shaft was sunk aud although the PEG
pie were much excited, capitalists failed
to push the project and hole in the
mountain side is all that reamins OF that
scheme.
Az the foot of Fletcher mountain in
Concord two miles west Of Bingham, is a
six foot wide vein of quartz rock which
has "a showing of metal which experts
claim contains lead, silver and gold. AT
the tine OF the Blue Hill excitement
miners sunk hole six feet deep, bonded
the mine for one year and departed mover
to return. Now IA new company has been
formed by j. J. Lander with mining ex-
perts from New Brunswick, who will
sink a shaft sixty feet deep and otherwise
develop this mine.

FOOD FOR CYCLERS.

The bicycler who takes long rides
needs nourishment in a condensed form.
The loading up of the stomach with
heavy food, will work serious injury.
Cyclers and athletes who have tried
the delicious Grape-Nuts, lately placed
on sale with our grocers, are loud il
recommendations of them as a conden
sed food that builds flesh, strength and
muscle, while at the same time is easily
digested.
1t is an undeniabie fact that more
hard work, physical or mental, can be
done on meal of Grape-Nuts than upon
any food in existence.
Proof of this is to be found among
those who use Grapefruit and have the
experience.
Add this to its delicious flavor and its
popularity is understood
