Millions of People.
EIGHTY.NINE YEHRS OF HGE, YET VIGOROUS
GOLD MEDAL CONFERRED.

has been a chorus of thanksgiving and
appreciation, and now, as crownlng
testimonial, comes the message OF grati-
tude from His Holiness the Pope, who,
having used Vim Mariani, found 1t sus-
tanning and health giving. Not salts
fled with merely expressing thanks to
Monsieur Marian as will be seen from
the above letter his Holiness has been
pleased to gracicusly confer a most beau
tiful Gold Medal upon the scientific pro-
ducer of the health giving Win Mariani
What charm there Is in the name
Vim Mariani For three decades II has
brought health and happiness to cottager
and king Her Majesty the Empress of
Russia takes it regularly as "a tonic, and
the London Court journal is authority
for the statement that the Princess of
Wales uscs 1t with best results.
Health is certainly the desire of all
creation. To the thousands who have
lost 1t or never known its delights, a
tonic that will reiuvcnate the spirit and
invigoratc the body is indeed boon Of
inCalculablo value.
When the Grip dnnucnza) is epidemic
I'm Europe, as also i'm this country, the
Medical Profession rely upon the tonic
properties of Vim Marani. 1t is given
as a preventive and also in convalescence
to build up the system and to avoid tho
many disagrceable after effects so COM
mon with this dreaded disease.
Win Mariani brings Cheerfulness to the
morbid and depressed; It strengthens the
weary: Calms the nerves when over
wrought by undue CXCltcment-in fact, II
makes life worth the living, and is aptly
termed by the illustrlous writers, Vic
torien Sardou, Alexander Dumas and
Jules Verne. "The True Promoter Of
Health" elixir of Life" "A Veritable
Fountain of Youth" " Never has anything
received such uniformly high praise and
recognition from eminent authorities.
Those readers who are not familiar
with the workings and the worth Of Win
Mariani should write to Mariani q Co,
50 West 18th street, New York, and
they will receive, free Of all charge, a
beautiful little Album containing por-
traits of Emperors, Empress, Princess,
Cardinals, Arch-blshops and other dis
tinguished parsonage who use and recon-
mend this marvellous wine, together with
explicit and interesting details on the
subject This little album is we'll worth
writing for; it is distributed gratuitous-
ly, and will be appreciated by all who re-
ceive it.

UNTERRIFIED AT WAR.
All Is Not Harmony in Ranks of
Monroe County Democrats.

Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Stroudsburg. Pa, Sept. AL is not
harmony in the Democratic ranks in
Monroe county. The recent ticket
nominated at the Democratic primaries
is 10 be opposed. EX-County Treas
urer Morris Nauman, a we'll known
Democrat, today announces himEelf
as an Independent candidate for coun-
ty commissioner. Mr.. Nauman fur
ther states that there will be several
other Independents who will soon an
nOuncc themselves for office. The
possibility of a full INDEPENDENT Demo-
cratic ticket in the field this fall is
not very pleasing to the party leaders.
For the past twenty-five years or
more the Democrats have ran things
to suit themselves and only until
within recent years have they allowed
a Republican commissioner to be
elected. There was a bitter opposi-
tion at the primaries against some of
the candidates nominated and the in
dications point to a lively time this
fall

Copper Ore on Spring Creek.


But little attention has been paid
to this district although it contains
some excellent copper prospects.
They are right in the limestone
country, close to the contact Of lime
and quartz. Evidences of copper
were first found there eight or nine
years ago by Jim Yerxey, who made
his camp there and commenced
prospecting for that mineral. AS.
ISOLATED with him has been for a
number of years John Truax and to
their combined efforts is due the
discovery OF copper ore in that sec.
ton OF the country. They have a
group Of claims called tho Dakota
Anaconda, on which they are work
ing. Several shafts have been sunk
on the vein but most of the work
has been tunneling, following the
lodges under the lime stone. The
veins are of good size and some ex
cellent copper ore has been extract
ed, which assays from 80 to 40 pei

six to v per cent copper is OF
