Is Boer Centre Threatened |?

Lord Roberts latest dispatch throws
no light on the subject and possibilities
OF the extensive operations in the
ne ghborhood of Thaba N'Chu. One
military critic believes he is justified in
inferring that Lord Roberts successful
attack at Houtnek threatens the Boer
centre and puts the British in ia
vorable position To crush the Boer left
which is stilk facing General Rumble at
Thaba N'Chu or their right which is
somewhere between Brandfort and
Wynberg.
General Ian Hamlton's success at
Houtnek elicits little enthusiasm as the
critics unanimously pointed out some
time ago that the policy of the Beers
would be one of slow retirement.

been struck in the l00-foot level of the Cash mine, Hassaya ampa district
 Prescott Courier: Mendenhall & Collins are working l7 men on the old Crook mine Eight tons of ore re- gently taken out yielded from s60 to s70 per ton, gold.
 The Penn Gold Mining company is said to be SO well satisfied with the results of the working of ore from their Mud Hole m ne through their Huntington mill that they will put up another mill of the same character and capacity upon that property, which is located in Lynx creek.
 Prescott Courier: Major Pitkin is in from the Buster mine, where he been giving the mill test run for four weeks duration with the most satisfactory results. The dry concen- trating plant being put in is almost completed There is slight shortage of water to run the mill.
 Globe Times w. J. Feagle return ed with his teams from the Clle X Goodwin copper camp last evening. At the time he left the main shaft was down ninety-ive feet in good ore. The whim had several cogs broken out Sunday and Is now in town for repairs, and as soon as completed three shifts will be put on.
 Prescott Courier: Hon. J. s. Jones came in from the mining districts yesterday and visited the Val Verde melter on his way in. He says the company is preparing to put in pyr- itic smelter for the treatment of the silcious ores of that section. A dy- namo will also be put in to electric light the works Seventeen miners inches of water is running in the creek.
 Prescott Courier: Report is that the Mackin brothers have struck q large body of high grade gold and silver tore in their Silver King, on Groom creek, They had been sinking through ''hard formation" for some time, and at depth of 2C0 feet sud denly rame upon this ore body, so the report goes. They are deserving men and they are entitled to all possible good luck.
 Citizen: Sam Barkley returned to- day from Helvetia. He brought in some fine samples of ore which came from the lower workings of the mines. Mir Barkley picked up sUme ore in the shaft which he thought was un- usually good but when he got down to the mill he found that this same grade of ore was in the bins ready to be smelted. Helvetia he say has now passed out of the prospecting stage and is substantial mining camp.
 Mohave Miner; We regret the fact that the Yucca Mining & Milling Co. has decided to close dow n it's work at the San Francisco mine for the pres ent. Miners who are competent to judge say the mine is one of the best gold properties on the coast, but the owners are said to have disagreed and a good mine is allowed to remain idle until the matter can be straightened out. Report comes from Los ADgele: that the mine will be started up or the first of September.

for shipment and expects to get some out on the railroad soon. It would not be a surprise to see the property go into other hands, with MT. Gould as a beneficiary.
 Mohave Miner: L. Lutzinger went out to the new gold strike at Little MeacO vs last Sunday and brought in several samples of the rock. He and John Withers own the extension or the Lovin-Jeris claim and have hue showing of ore. The ore for the full length of the claim horns we'll and as- says show the presence of fifteen ounces in silver. The Lovin shaft is down fifteen feet and in sinking that depth several hundred dollars have been taken out. The ore from the shaft runs nine ounces gold and fifteen ounces silver. The ledge for several feet in width gave an assay of over one ounce in gold.

EASE AND DISEASE
A Short Lesson on the Meaning
Of a Familiar y Grid.

Disease is the opposite of ease.
Webster defines disease as "Iack
of ease, uueasiness; trouble, vexa
ton, disquiet." 1t is a condition
due to some arrangement of the
physical organism. A vast major
ity of the "dis-ease" from which
people suffer is due to impure
blood. Disease of this kind is
cured by Hood'sSarsaparilla which
purifes, enriches and vitaIizes the
blood. Hoods Sarsaparllla cures
scrofula, salt rheum, pimples and
all eruptions. II tones the stOm-
ach and creates good appetite,
and it gives vigor and vitality to
the whole body. 1t reverses the
condition Of things! giving health,
comfort and tease" in place of
disease

Finest Exhibit.

What was said by large proportion
Of the visitors at the State Fair to be
the finest exhibit on the grounds was
that of the Wheeling Business College.
This large and splendid display shows
the work of students In nine different
departments of the college. The stu
dents who are giving exhibitions OF
work are only fifteen or sixteen years
old. Two of these are operating type
writer's with blank keyboards, doing the
work entirely by the touch system.
They have been operating the machine
but two or three weeks. One of the
officers OF the school said that n large
number Of scholarships had been sold
at the booth. This display occupies o
booth thirty feet long. finely prepared
and caroeted, exhibiting the most ccm-
plete furniture.
The celebrated court reporting sys-
TEN of shorthand. now used in the
majority of the states. Is taught in this
school by the author Of the system, who
is principal of the shorthand depart
ment. As to the shortest time for grad
uattnS a first class stenographer. this
school has held the worlds record fo..
the past five years.
Its li2 graduates for the past year
are all at work, drawing good salaries.
Since September the enrolment of the
schools shows 102 pupils, making seq
since the last State Fair. The school
never was in so ilourlshing condition.

First Premium.


Mr.. Charles Lilly, n student of the
Elliott school. who has been attracting
so much attention at the Fair by his
blindfolded typewriting, secured the
first premium FOR artistic penmanship
In the "free-for-all' class. He has
been only q student in this college about
three months.
Prof. Van Vert gave another exhibit
tion of his wonderful speed in writing
shorthand blindfolded. Fie successfully
accomplished the feat of writing 145
words a minute, blindfolded, and read
his notes without an error. While this
feat seems most remarkable, 1t is O
matter of comparative ease to him.
such is his proficiency In shorthand
and familiarity with the famous Gregg
system OF writing. This system nos
sess q many advantages over all others
owing 10 the fact that 1t is straight
running, requiring no back strokes,
dots, ETC.. like all other systems.
To this fact and also because 1t re-
quires no line to Indicate the meaning
of the character. the Gregg owes It's
great success. In fact, many teachers
have taken 1t up, discardlng other sys-
TENS.
The Elliott school, atsNo. 1918 Market
street, has acquired reputation for
graduating expert typewriters and
stenographers superior TO all other
schools. a visit to their booth will
be profitable to all.
