zINB ORE EXPERIMENTS.

Rocky Mountain News: Most of the
camps of the state where zinc ore
abounds are catching the Zinc fever. At
Silver Plume the owners of several large
zinc propositions are making expert
mental shipments of zinc ores to In.
diana, and it is believed that large
amount of ore which could not be han
died by the smeters on account of the
zinc can now find profitable market.
In the Silver Plume district the zinc
streaks run from three to five feet in
thickness.

Their Tenth Anniversary.

Last Monday being the tenth anni-
versary Of the Epworth League of the
Methodist Episcopal church OF America,
the league in this city held very appro-
pirate services both morning and even

WILL TREAT ms OWN ORE.

Mr.. s. w. Miller, who is developing his
recent purchase on Gunnell hill, the East
Whiting mine, has taken a lease on the
rapid drop stamp mill erected four years
ago by the GilpIn Gold mining company,
operating the Cashier and Brooklyn
veins, southeast of this city. The mill is
provided with humping tables, jigs, ETC.,
for crushing the ore and concentrating
the values in the shines after passing
over the amalgamated copper plated
tables. The mill is being overhauled
and will be started up ON ore from the
East Whiting vein. Mr. Miller also has
in contemplation the putting in of sid.
ing to the mine from the main track of
the Gilpin County Tramway, which is
but short distance west of the present
main shaft. 1t can be accomplished
with comparatively a small amount OF
grading. This completed the ore will be
transported to the mill, situated on
North Clear creek above Black Hawk.
over the tramway. BY SO doing he will
lessen the cost of transportation Of ore
from the mine, as we'll as in getting feel
and other supplies to the mine at
smaller expense. He will use every
method whereby the cost Of mining and
treating the ore will be lessened, thus
enabling him to treat lower grade ore
to profit than has been heretofore ac-
complished under former methods.
The main shaft at the mine will be
Strengthened, retimbered and n cageway
put in. Other improvements will be
made on the surface and larger hoist
ing apparatus placed, as also an air COM
pressor in order to use power drills.

NO DUTY ON COPPER MATTE.

Copper matte can be imported into
the United States free of duty, says
Monday evenings Denver Post. In the
United States circuit court that morning
Judge Marshall upheld the decision of
the board of general appraisers of New
York, and rendered decision in line not
only with that of the appraisers, but
supporting the contention of the Phila.
delphia Smelling and Refining company
that copper regulus and copper matte
are one and the same thing and are not
dutiable because the percentage of lead
is small, and that as a product OF the
furnace and not of the ground it cannot
be called lead-bearing ore, as singled
out under the tariff.

at lao o'clock yesterday afternoon and
disappeared down the tracks toward the
tracks toward the East. 1t was the first
of new service inaugurated to-day by
the Burlington and will be known on the
time cards as the Chicago Special. AT
Fort Morgan it met its counterpart and
exact duplicate in every detail, steaming
towards Denver.
The Burlington has put into service
four Of these new trains, costing close to
half million dollars, between Denver
and Chicago. Each represents the high
est type of rolling stock; each is the lat

heavy locomotives. One OF the engines
between Omaha and Chicago weighs 127
tons, has drivers seven feet in diameter,
and water capacity of 5000 gallons.
Each train consists of a composite car,
a Pullman and two chair cars, in addi-
tion to baggage car. The composite
cars, in which are buffet, library and
writing desk, are named Colorado, Ne
braska, Iowa, Illinois and Missouri. The
four sleepers are designated Diamond,
Emerald, Ruby and Sapphire. The ex-
terror is of the standard Pullman color,
rich brown, relieved by gold. The chair
cars are in cream and gold. The wood
work OF the Pullmans and composite
cars is Of vermillion wood, relieved by a
tasty marguerite. They are built on the
artistic cathedral plan, the light coming
through oval stained glass rortholes
The roofs are vaulted and the decoration

SPLENDID RETURNS.

Sheriff Mitchell last Friday received
returns from thirty-ton lot of ore
which he sold to the State Ore Sampling
works in Black Hawk from the East
Nottaway mine. The ore was classified
into three qualities, the returns received
per ton being as follows: First quality,
141.76 ounces gold, 9.6S ounces silver;
total value, s2,S25. Second quality, 1O.47
ounces gold, 66 ounces silver; total
value, sl96S7 Third quality, 4.O6 ounces
gold, 3.6S ounces silver; total value,
S71.19. The stamp mill ore shipped
gave an average of four ounces gold per
cord by amalgamation. The concen-

PREDICTS A MINING BOOM.

PNEDlCIS "A MlNlNG BOOM.
The Georgetown Herald predicts a
mining boom in Argentine Mining dis
trict. Assays have been made from
across the entire quartz veins of the Oro
Bell and the Marietta claims which gave
average values of six ounces in gold and
$50 ounces silver per ton. The Herald
says that the veins are from six inches to
three feet in width. New locations are
being made, even to placer claims, and
everything portends an influx of miners
to the district.
WEST GOLDEN WEDGE RETURNS.
Another Lake district property that
is showing up well is the West Golden
lode, taken hold of some time ago by

Last Friday while at the office of the
State Ore Sampling works in Black
Hawk, we saw check for S24O that had
been handed Mr.. Vallero for three tons
of ore. This was the net amount re-
ceived for the three tons. The mine is
being opened up in systematic manner.
For the present a whim is being used for
hosting purposes. Every dollar taken
out of the mines here by our home
people is kept here and put in circula-
tion, where it does the most good to all
classes of citizens.

Men who go out fishing in an open boat
IN the midst of binding storm and enjoy
1t, must be strong and healthy and are
pretty sure to live to a ripe old age. I'M
fortunately, the rush and hurry of modern
business life will not permit the average
man to take frequent outdoor exercise.
In lieu of a life spent partly in the woods
and on the water, man must find some
kind of medicine to tone up and inVjgorate
him and incite the vital organs of his body
TO the faithful performance of their normal
functions. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery is the only thoroughly effective
medicine for this purpose. Its principal
action is upon 1.-THE organs that feed the
blood, the stomach, the large intcstines and
the liver. 1t facilitates the flow of the di-
gestive juices in the stomach and the
production of healthy chye in large guam
tities in the large intestines. 1t invigorates
the liver and purifes and enriches the
blood. When the blood is rich and pure
the old, inert tissues throughout the body
are torn down and replaced by new and
healthy flesh tissues and nerve fbers. If a
mans blood is filled with the rich, pure
elements Of health, he can get along with a
scanty amount of exercise. Disease germs
can gain no foothold in his system

CLOTHING FOR YOUNG CHILDREN

1t is impossible to estimate the amount
Of suffering to which children are con-
demned by the fads Of their parents. The
poor little things cannot care for them
selves, nor can they protest against the
wellmeant cruelty Of those whose charge
they are in. Societies exist for the proven
tion of cruelty to children, but their right
to interfere stops short of the control Of
the hygienic hereses of parents.
Fortunately for succeeding generations
OF mankind, says the Youths Companion,
these hygienic faddists are not in the
majority and most parents let their child
rem grow up under common sense method
Of health training, or perhaps under no
method whatever, which is the next best
thing.
Mistaken parents may be roughly desig-
mated under two grand divisons-t cod
dlers and the tougheners-and it is hard to
say which do the more harm.
The theory OF the coddler is that a
breath of air is death dealing to the tender
child, and that the chief end of man is the
avoidance of draughts; and so they bundle
up their children with layer upon layer of
heavy wooden garments, from the soles of
their feet to the crown of their head
Their children are apt to grow up weak
lings, il they grow up at ALL but their
sufferings are light and their perils few in
comparison with those that beset the vic
tins of the toughening or hardening pro-
cess.
