BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION,

The skin is the seat of IN almost end
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that ~irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations OF
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
sor a short time, but cannot emo per
manently the ugly b1otches and the red,
disfguring pimples.

WASHINGTON. June S.-EXports from
the United States 10 Cuba Puerto Rico
and the Hawaiian, Philippine and Sa-
moan islands will reach 0o,000 in the
fiscal year which ends with the present
month, and will be more than three times
as much as In 1896 and more than twice as
much as in any year of our commerce
with those islands except in the years
1924, when reciprocity greatly in
creased our exports to Cuba and Puerto
Rico. To Cuba the total for the fiscal
year seems likely to be fully SIS, 0n1 co.
against 81. $50 900 in the fiscal year 1896 and
s24 157, 900 in the great reciprocity year 1888,
when exports to that island were more
than double those of five years earlier.
To Puerto Rico the exports of the year
will be, In round terms, $1,000 900, against
an average of 50. $4,000 in the reciprocity
years 1892 1898 and 1894. when exports to
that island were double those of earlier
years.
To the Hawaiian islands the total for the
year win be about SIS 900 600. or five times
as much as in 1893. nearly four times as
the total for is9S. TO the Philippines the
total for 1900 will be about s250o.0 900. or

Record of Imports.
On the import side Cuba begins to show
something of her old-time strength as an
exporting island the total imports into
the United States from Cuba, for the full
year, will show total OF ssl on, 600
against 900 In 1896 and sls.5n,0oo in
1897 though they still are less than half
the average for the reciprocity years 1892
1898 and 1894 when our imports from that
island averaged over 81, 900, 00n per an
mum. From Puerto Rico the imports OF
the year will be 81 $4,000, which is less
than the total for any preceding year
since 1880 and is presumably due to the
destruction by last years tornado OF the
crops which supply Puerto Rico's chief
articles of export. From the Hawaiian
islands the imports for the full fiscal year
will be s2l 900. 000. double the average
annual importation for the period prior to
1895 and higher than in any preceding
year. while from the Philippines. despite
the war conditions, which reduce produc-
ing and exporting power. the imports Will

Prospecting Mining Claims.

A veteran prospector's advice to To-
Gators of mining claims is to follow the
vein by sinking incline shafts on the
~outcroppings in at least four places
along Its course after running open
cuts at intervals to determine whether
the vein Is continuous and holds out in
breadth and value a few feet below the
surface. After the vein has been pros
pected by the foregoing mentioned
methods at at least four different points,
assays Of the rock will show whether
the vein grows richer in one direction or
carries uniform values.
There is no other way by which the
ground can be shown up SO thoroughly.
and the ore taken out will 60 often a
long way toward paying expenses.
Even If the ore is not rich enough to
pay for shipment, it is always evidence
Of the value Of the rock In the vein and
is q tangible, self-evident thing to show
a prospective investor. Again, shafts.
vertical or incline, that follow the vein,
will show up any changes in the ore
and gives a large amount In sight.
Thus four shafts so feet down in a
ledge four feet wide would expose / $50
square feet on the vein. A tunnel
driven 200 feet through rock to cut the
vein would expose but the section. the
height and width of the tunnel. say 100
square. To expose a large area. drift
ing must be done, and such drifts can
be run with better discrimination at the
foot Of a shaft that has followed the ore.
If indications of water are found In
sinking and the prospecting Of the vein
as described demonstrates that Its value
warrants the outlay in labor, and the
ground is situated SO that the water can
be drained to a depth Of two or three
hundred feet by tunneling, then the lat
ter is advisable as II is obvious that
draining a mine through a tunnel Is far
more economical than performing that
work with surface pumping plants.

Sasu8lay aft.ra3on considerable sur
Prise was cccaslonsd when It was
learned Tat i'm Cummings, tae mail
clerk, had been arrested on a charge
Of tax NJ two registered letters. The
packages wsre from Dayton and Sutro
and enc was for Sacramento and the
other was addressed to Sap Francisco.
One Of the letters contained $50 and
the other $62, and they were handled
over the c. & c. railroad by Mall
Clerk James Catalan. From what
can be learned the packages have
probably been lost through carelessness.
as no one who knows Cummings thinks
he stole the money. In fact. If he
wanted to rob the mail he could have
taken packages before Of greater
amounts, and his friends believe he
will have no trouble in proving his in
nocence.
He was taken before u. S. Court
Commissioners J. w. Whitcher Satur-
day and he waived a hearing. He was
held on two charges and bail fixed at
$1,000 in each case. Bonds were fur
nished and he will he released pending
his hearing in the United States Court.
He is firm in claiming his innocence
and declined the services of.an attorney.
Sunday afternoon Cummings died
from morphine poisoning. AS to
whether it was taken with suicidal in
tent there is. q difference of opinion.
The editor Of this paper knew Jim
Cummings since he was able to 60 to
school and we have entire faith that he
did not rob the u. S. mail or anybody
else out Of one cent. He may have
been careless as he said.
