GOLD MINING

is attracting more attention now than
ever before. Hundreds of abandoned and
neglected mines are being reopeneds and
are working at a profit. Among the many
companies bidding for public favor, none
offer a better opportunity for making a
profitable investment than the Occidental
Development Co. Its Harrisburg group,
located at Idaho Springs, Clear Creek
county, Colorado, is considerably more
than an ordinary prospect. 1t is rapidly
approaching the condition of a full
fedged mine. Active work is now in pro-
gress with two shifts of men. The COM
pany also owns some very valuable cop
per property which it will develop as
soon as the Harrisburg is placed on a
paying basis, which will be in the very
near future. A limited amount of treas
ury stock is offered at the low price of
TEN CENTS PER SHARE, full paid,
worcestershire. If you desire to make an
investment in a going concern that is rea-
sonably certain to yield large returns on
your money, don't fail to obtain block
of this stock at once. Occidental Devel-

like dry goods or coffee or sugar. You

SETTLED
An Agreement Reached Between the
Grain Shovelers and Lake Carriers.


BUFFALO. n. T., May 13.-An agree
ment has been reached in the trouble be-
tween the grain shovelers and their en-
pioyers Shortly after l o'clock Bishop

shovelers and the Lake Carriers Assoca-
ton, respectively. BY the terms of the

fide morthly men in place of the men

AT SAND CREEK
Tow Boat Fallie Runs Nine Barges of
Her Tow Hard Aground New
Wharf Boat Question .-0ther Items
of Interest Picked Up on the Wharf.

Pittsburg, May 13.-The towboat
Fallie ran nine barges of her tow of
coal aground at Sand Creek at five
O'Clock yesterday morning, but it is
presumed that she got ahead of the
rise and that the toy is afoat by this
time. Sand creek is situated several
miles below Ravenswood w. Va. The
Mckinley Coal Company has not been
Informed of the accident at noon to-
day and the firm is of the opinion that
the tow has been floated. The infor-
nation was telephoned to Pittsburg
this morning by the captain of pass
ing boat, who saw the boats tow
stuck.
1t is expected that the towboats now
en- route to Cincinnati are all below
Point Pleasant by this time. The boats
will strike good water at this place, as
there is big rise coming out of the
Kanawha, and the boats should not
have any trouble after that place is
reached. The advance guard of the
coal fleet should commence to arrive
at Cincinnati some time tomorrow.
A rise is coming out of both the AL
legheny and Monongahela rivers. but it
is thought that the rise will not cause
much over s feet of water at the Davis
Island dam. This will be Of much
benefit to the towboats and packets and
will enable the latter to continue run
ming the remainder of this month.
There was report current to-day that
there would be coal boat water, but
unless it should rain to-day or tonight
up the valleys, the rise will not amount
to sufficient TO ship coalboats.
NEW W1ARFBOAT QUESTION.
There is some talk of another wharf
boat to be placed at Wheeling. Some
of the packet men claim that they are
being disseminated against.-Pit!sburg
