of the Mississippi has been des-
troyed by the opening of the Chi
cago Drainage Canal, and much
passionate speech has bewailed

The Dickinson Hose Co. have
officially turned their building ov-
er to the village, and now why
would it not be a good thing for
the village to hold the building
for a public band stand7 The
building cannot be used as it is for
the new fire apparatus and it
would not bring more than $50 or
$40 if sold at auction. The Press
believes that the town should
keep the building for the use of
the band. The village should Sc
cure a lot and erect a brick build
ing for the fire apparatus and then
the town would have something
that would be permanent. There
is no economy in renting a site
and putting up a wood structure.

Still More Counterteitinu.

The Secret Service has unearthed an
otner md OF counterfeiters and secured
a large number of bogus bills, which are
so cleverly executed that the average
person would never suspect them of be-
ing spurious. Things of great value are
always selected by counterfeiters for
imitation, notably the celebrated Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, which has many
imitators but no equals for indigestion,
dyspepsia, constipation, and
general debility. The Bitters sets things
right in the stomach, and when the stom-
ach is in good order it makes good blood
and plenty of it. In this manner the
Bitters get at the seat of strength and
vitality, and restore vigor to the weak
and debilitated. Beware of counterfeits
when buying.

3 Horses Died.

A train load of horses from Washing
ton belonging to Cook & Milligan,
horse dealers of South St. Paul, were nn-
loaded at the Helena stock yards after
20 hours without food or water last Sat-
urday, and made a rush for the stagnant
pools of water in the stock yards. BY
noon next day, fifty of the horses we're
dead and many more in a bad condition.
The animals developed Inflammation Of
the bowels symptoms before night and
then died rapidly. The presumption is
that the foul water taken on an empty
stomach caused the trouble. About 200
of the shipment were reloaded the next
day and sent On through to their destina-
ton. These are some more of the big
purchase made by a St. Paul syndicate
for spring delivery. The loss to the
owners is estimated at sl,ooo.-Miles

FINAL COUNTY MINES
Ore Shipments, Property Transfers
 and New Discoveries.

Superintendent Phoeby shipped a carload of rich ore from the old Silver King mine last week by way of Desert Wells and Mesa City. It went to the Selby works at Sar Francisco.
 D. C. Thurman and wife of Tomb stone. sold their interest this week in g group of copper prospects situated on the northern end of the Picacho range. eighteen miles south of Flor ence, to w. T. Benge; consideration, $2O0. 900.
 Mr. H. M. Snyder of Casa Grande shipped q carload of ore to Fl Paso last week, which went 60 per cent lead. 40 ounces silver and $4 gold per ton. It is from a new discovery he made about twenty-five miles south of Casa Granda and near the Turning Point mines. He has several more carloads of this rich ore in sight.
 The owners of the Turning Point mill and mines in the Casa Grande dis trict are said to have completed a deal by which a strong Scotch syndicate be- comes the owners of that property. The new company is expected to im- mence operations at the property soon on a large scale.
 A number of mining men will arrive in Florence between the 1st and 18th of September. and it is more than prob able that several important deals vii he closed before the end of that month. all of which will mean a great deal for the business of Florence. The extreme ly hot weather in the east has kept these men from travelling sooner. No one need be discouraged by the present dull spell. It will not last long.
 The company having a working bond on the copper group at Sllinnerville has developed the mines sufficiently and blocked out a sufficient amount oi ore to justify them in erecting reduc- ton works. They have secured a good mill site on the north side of the Gila river a mile or two above Riverside and. according to reports, are making preparations for the erection of large concentrating plant. The mines lie near the summit of the Mescal range. about three or four miles from the mill site and the ore can be economically trammed from the mines to the mill. the fall being sufficient to make the tramWay self acting. A large and pros porous camp will be the result of this enterprise if the company carries out its present intentions.
