JOINT BAROMETER.
Drug Store Sales Indicate Their Ab-
sence or Presence

The people OF Topeka troubled with in
digestion, cramps, earache, toothache,
headache. dryness in the throat and such
other ailments that uecessitate the use
of spirituOus and fsrmented liquors seem
To be decreasing.
Topeka is suddenly becoming quite
healthy In June there were 5.2SS liquor
sales reported by the drug stores For
the month Of July there were S202 sales
reported. q falling of Of 2.067 in a month
The reason of this may be because peo-
PIE with ailments have adopted the water
cure, but it isn't likely. The reason IS
that the schooners have run the blockade
and now appear on the bars when nickel
Is IN sight It IS strange, perhaps, how
the liquor sales reported by the drug
stores huctuate. In February there were
? $50 sales reported In March, 1852
About that time the police department
made bluff at closing the joints and in
Apru the sales by drug stores went up to
$685. The last of April the police depart
ment made a very serious play at closing
the joints for awhile and maintained a
pretty fair blockade for awhile and in
May the sales jumped to 6,14s. Since then
they have dropped Two new joints have
been opened within as many weeks. The
following is the complete list of liquor
sales for June and July:

KING OF ARIZONA.

The gold bearing property known for time as the Gleason, has been transferred to the King of Arizona Mining and Milling Company, cor poration organized under the laws of the Terri tory of Arizona with capitalization Of 900, ,00C shares of par value of S1 each. This company owns four full claims-the Homesta1e, the King of Arizona, the Last Hope, and the Mucho Bueno. This district lies about thirty five miles due east of thd Castle Dome Land ing, on the Colorado River. It is north Of the Gila River and about 70 miles from Mohawk Summit, on the Southern Pacific Railroad. This is the nearest station on the railway. There are several other locations besides those conveyed to the King of Arizona.
 The Homestake location covers the chief workings up to this date. There is on this claim a strong vein of gold bearing quartz This lode or vein has three well-marked divisions or layers. On the hanging wall there is a soft layer from to 312 inches wide, which averages about $2, 800 per ton in value. Next below this there is middle layer or body of quartz about % inches thick which will average about 800 to S1OO per ton in value. The remainder of the vein, so far-as it is exposed by the shaft, aver ages about S24 per ton. Test holes have been drilled feet deep into the foot wall and all are III OT6- 1I6 Sudlb py WHICH I1c CADOSuI6 Ol the nature of the vein has been made is 200 feet deep and follows the dip of the hanging wall distance of 40 feet easterly and 30 feet westerly. These show. continuity of vein, having the same characters and values develop ed by the shaft The hill rises rapidly both east and west of the shaft So that the height of backs on the lode above the drifts is greater than at the shaft. At point about 30 feet west of the shaft and on a level with the collar of the shaft the vein has been croSScut from wall to wall, showing it IS feet wide at that point. The ore in the croSScut is of about the same grade as that in the shaft. The croppingS of the vein may be followed for some 700 feet of the Home stake shaft to a second opening, known as The King of Arizona Shaft This shaft is about 50 feet deep, and by means of drill holes the vein is shown to be Il feet in width and has an aver age value of BIO per ton. At point 300 feet east of the Homestalle shaft tunnel has been made which crosscuts the vein 160 feet below the sur face. At this point the hanging wall vein is IS inches wide and has an average value of $50 per son The tunnel then passes through 30 feet of vein matter running about B per ton, thence through feet of ore carrying BPS per ton to the foot wall The total distance from hanging wall to foot wall along this tunnel is 40 feet. A drift has been run along the foot wall to the Home stake shaft at distance of 3O0 feet, and the average value of tho orc exposed is Sl4 per ton.

tinuous body stretching to distance of two or three miles, and showing a thickness at right angles to the Stratificaton of no less than 5000 or s,OOO or perhaps 10000 feet, and there is no evidence whatever of plication. The stratifica- tion is fiat and as regular as the leaves of a book. Usually we detect more or less plication or folding in such a section, but there is no evi- dence of any folding whatever in this series. There is, however, a great difference in the composition of the layers of these rocky ridges, now all turned black upon the surface-a condi- tion of coloring which seems to attend all the rock outcrops along the lower Colorado and the origin of which though discussed by Humboldt after noting similar blackening of the rocks along the Orinoco, has not yet been satisfactory explained This general blackening of the sur face hides the changes of composition, which may be noted by careful and close inspection.
 In some places hornblendic states are more developed than the mica slate, and at others the micaccouS schistose characters predominate and are accompanied by layers of quartzite in terleaved and three or four feet in tQickness sometimes three or four inches and some foliated quartz having little films of mica in it. These quartz beds are members of the series but have been located as ledges and it is claimed, are gold bearing. The quartz haS little or no resemblance to vein quartz, and yet at several points in the outcrop there are stains of green color, apparently from the decomposi- tion of ore like that which has given green stains to the croppings of the Fortuna.
 Several dike-like seams or veins of white al bite or soda. .feldspar cut directly across the bedding of the mica slate series. These feldspa- thic dikes do Rot appear to have any relation to the ore bearing vein or lode of the Fortuna These dizes are extremely irregular and appear to have filled cross fractures or breaks of the regular strata.
 Coarse granite was noted at the northern point of the Gila range along the railroad, but no evidences were found of the existence of strati1ed Paleozoic or secondary rocks. The mica slates series referred to is the Huronian or Archean.
