Northwest company should forfeit or
relinquish their bond. Now that
the Northwest company has given
up the property, the bond held by
the Boston people has become eff
fective, and, while we have had no
opportunity of interviewing the Bos-
ton & Seven Devils company's gen
eral manager, Mr.. w. b. Hancock,
on this subject, it is an assured fact
that this company will Immediately
assume control of this mine.
The change in management will
no doubt be of great benefit to this
section, for, while the Northwest
company has done much toward the
development of this section in times
past, the litigation among various
members of the corporation has re-
tarded and delayed operations to
quite a considerable extent. This
company will continue extensive
work on tn, Iron Dyke mine on
Snake river. Seven Devils Standard.

What II. H. Green Thinks of The
Heath District.
CHANGES At PEACOCK MINE
Everything Pointing to a Season of Great
Activity In Northern Camps.

Mr.. H. Fl Green, the Salt Lake
mining man interested in the Con-
glomerate group of mines in the Heath
district, arrived in Weiser last Sat-
urday from Salt Lake and proceeded
up the P. & l. N. on Sunday morn
ing in company with Geo. Hartley
The Conglomerate proposes to make
the best use possible of the develop
ment fund arising from the $1,000
treasury shares set aside for
that purpose, and with as little delay
as possible They now have six
men at work and will at once increase
the force to the greatest extent that
can be handled on the development
work.
Mr.. Green was seen at the Vendome
and talked most enthusiastically of
the. Heath country.
IL have investigated everything in
the northwest during the last few
years, he said, ssand / have seen
nothing more promising and in which
| felt as much confidence as | do in
the Heath district. In one place il
Arizona | know of district which
promises to be as fine. l have
every confidence that this seasons
development at Heath will show uI
one of the greatest camps Of late dis
covery. The ore is in well defined
veins-deep, permanent and rich
In fact the whole wonderful belt eX.
tending from near Weiser through
Central, Idaho to the Montana liue
is likely to become the greatest min
eral district in the western mining
world.

Beers Attack British With Desperate
Energy.
ENGLISH LOSE 500 MEN
Little News Obtained AS to Buffers Move
ments ut Tugela River.

News from the Boer war gives de-
tails of a determined attack on Lady
smith on January 9Th. The attack
lasted for five hours, but General White
reports having beaten off the Beers.
At first the news was given out as
decided British victory, but there
turns out to be but little consolation
to English arms, rs the British loss
appears to have been no less than
500 men killed and wounded. Gen
eral White claimed to have killed
1000 Beers, but by the way other re-
ports have turned out, the Boer loss
would not at the most be any greater
than the English.
An army of 5000 Beers has been
dispatched to meet General French
Very meager news is received OF
General Butler at Tugela river. At one
time reports said he was making a
successful flank movement on the
Boer army, but the latest reports hint

Devils Standard Gracefully
Retracts.


On Sunday last, the last day of
1899, the Northwest Copper Com
pany, which for the past two years
has been operating the Peacock mine
in this district, discharged all the
miners employed on that property,
and abandoned the mine, thereby
forfeiting all their rights to said
property.
As stated last week, the Boston
& Seven Devils Copper company
has for some time held a second
bond on this world famous mine,

RAPID RIVER ACTIVITY.
The Irwins Tell Of Late Movements
and Bring in Samples.

"Uncle Bill" or w. w. Irwin and
Frank Irwin came into Weiser last
Monday for the first time in number
of years, and while very much as
tonished at the growth Of the town,
they were not sufficiently bewildered
as to forget to call at the Signal
Office and deliver the good news from
Rapid River They also brought
down very interesting line of
samples from that section and have
left the same in Haas Bros window.
The Signal last summer mentioned
the sale by the lrwins of the Bryan,
Cora and Wide West claims to Hig-
gins & Baltimore, or rather to the
South Fork and Rapid River Gold
Mining Co., of which Higgins q
Baltimore were the organizers and in
which the Irwins still hold stock after
transferring the mines for cash
consideration Messrs Higgins q
Baltimore were engaged all summer
in bringing in a concentrator from
Spokane. 1t was finally fully in
stalled in working order on the 10Th
of October at the site six miles above
Pollock, though the bursting of the
penstock prevented a successful run
before the season closed in still
sufficient test was made to demon
strate the complete success of the
plant and that the right process
for the treatment of the ores
had been adopted. Six to ten men
have been at work all fall taking out
ore. The principals are now in
Spokane but the force is engaged in
opening roads and other necessary
work.
The main samples brought down by
the Irwins are from the three mines
mentioned, but there are also included
fine specimens of Steotite, the min-
eral used largely in paper manufacture
to give finish and weight, which is
found in large bodies and of super
ior quality. Its existence is known
in but one or two other places in the
United States Among other miner
ais is a chunk Of Rapid River Coal
from a vein which is being worked on
by gentleman named Sweet. There
are also specimens of fire clay en-
countered while working the coal and
coming from 100 feet in the hill.

News About Stamps.

An innovation in the postal service
which is sure to be of great convenience
is a plan lately adopted of furnishing
stamps in little books, with wax sheets
between them. The government Is to
charge n cent additional to the
amount of stamps contained therein,
and it Is now estimated that the profit
on these books will amount to $500, 600
per annum 1t is also estimated that
the sum paid for the Private Revenue
Stamps placed over the top Of the bot
ties containing Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters very nearly equals this. The
Bitters is a reliable remedy for consti-

QUESTION ANSWERED..

Yes, August Flower still has the larg-
est sale of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for indigestion or %biliousness.
Doctors were scarce, and they seldom
heard of appendicitis, nervous prostra-
ton or heart failure. etc. They used
August Flower to clean out the system
and stop fermentation OF i~ndigested
food, regulate the action of the liver,
stimulate the v and organic &C
ton of the system, and that is all they
took when feeling dull and bad with
headaches and other aches. You only
need a few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you sat

ter with you. For sale by Ireland's
