CHRONIC DISORDERS
Health The
Physicia

SO extended and firmly established has
become the reputation of the Copeland
specialists in the cure OF chronic catarrh
OF all forms that many suppose the special
skill OF these physicians to be confined TO
the treatment OF that all-prevaiiing. in
sidious and dangerous disease, but such is
far from being the case. The same superb
mastery they have over that great enemy
of the human race. they also possess over
chronic diseases Of al, kinds. No sufferer
from chronic and wasting malady; no
person whose nerves throb with the tor
lures Of rheumatism: no pale. restless.
nervous. emaciated invalid. whose stom-
ach has ceased TO perform its duty OF as
similating the food taken into it for the
sustenance OF the body: no victim Of nerve
racking neuralgia; no one suffering and
slowly dying from chronic affections OF
the liver. kidneys. bladder. bowels and
other organs of the body; no unfortunate
whose bronchial tubes have been invaded
by catarrh until his lungs have become
affected and he Is threatened with con-
sumption. or whose entire system has been
undermined bs lie absorption of catarrhal
poisons: In fact. no person afflicted with
any chronic disease which battles the skill
OF the ordinary family physician and is by
him pronounced incurable. ever applies TO
the Copeland specialists for relief in vain.
More than this. No person is prevented
from receiving the benefit OF their great
skill because of their inability to pay for
it, for the Copeland fee is SO small that
every suffering mortal may go to them
for relief. Their wonderful mastery over
disease is brought within the reach OF the
masses by the equally wonderful low fee
of s month for treatment, ali medicines
being supplied by them free. When the
highest attachments Of medical science.
the utmost skill in the treatment OF chronic
diseases. the greatest experience in curing
what most physicians admit themselves to
be unable to cure. are thus brought within
the easy reach OF all who suffer. it is no
wonder that thousands avail themselves of
the opportunity to be cured and gladly
proclaim their cure and gratitude, so that
all others who suffer may know where to
go for relief.

Representative Tate OF Georgia. who returned TO
the city yesterday from n visit to his home, says that
cx.Representative Gambler will undoubtedly be the
nominee for the Governorship. a nomination Is
equivalent 10 election.
Mr.. Gambler is well remembered here as the indie.
pendent who fought Emory Speer5, Mt that time the
leading momber OF the Georgia delegation. He Is n
genuine Colonel. having lost an eye In one OF the
battles Of the war. He Is an able and bright man.
and many stories are told OF his ready wit when he
was in Congress.
One Of Mr.. Gamblers latest sayings. by the way. is
said to be the cause of his certain nomination. Down
in Georgia a 'possum supper Is synonymous with a
political conference. aud to one OF these occasions
Dir. Gambler was invited. He knew that the men nc
the supper were not altogether favorable to him, and
he decided not to be present.
"A political 'possum supper" he wrote to the host
OF the occasion. "is not the place for n one eyed man."
The remark went all over the State, the hostile guns
were spiked, the supper failed to unite the opposi.
ton. and tho shrewd oneeyed man. who had sight
enough to see through the designs OF the enemy. will
BIO Governor OF the State.

Blackburn looked at his colleague in blank surprise.
Then he made au exclamation that would not look

come in even, but generally speaking. whom u horse

Curious things occur in tho operation Of

Quarts Creek has several tributaries, but the
prospecting on all has not beon particularly
thorough. On Dominion Creek there arc two
claims for discovery. The creek is all located
twenty-five miles from the upper discovery.
One OF the last parties that e%~ from
Dawson 10 Juneau reported that LIo mother
lode has been discovered. but IL Is doubtful IL
subsequent discovery bears out this informa-
ton. 1t IL a fact that quartz in very rich guam
titles has boon uiscoyered in several places.
Frank Slayin. tho pugilitt, made the discovery
first, whilo prospecting on The Dome. lie
had been influenced by the fact that upon the
side hills Of the creeks small specimens OF
quartz and nuggets in profusion had been found.
He prospoctei in the vicinity OF Tho Dome, and
followed up indications of quartz for miles. He
had prospectcd In Australia, and was familiar
with tho indications for quartz, Finally, on
The Dome. he uncovered q vein eighteen inches
of white quartz heavy with gold.
Within twenty.four hours IL was reported
that apparently the same vein had boen struck
in three different places, although widely apart.
The second discovery was thirty feet under
ground, on claim No. 81, above tho discovery on
Eldorado. This was found by A. u. Jose and
his partner, who were working n placer claim
for another man. The quartz claim being a
separate and distinct property from the placer,
these men at once located II for themselves.
The ledge crosses the creek at right angles. Tho
