ToMRsToNE,s FUTURE.
Work on the hll-lntevew With E. 8.
 Gage.
From the Tombstone Prospector.l

Prom the Tombstone Prospector.l
 E. B. Gage and ". r. Staunton ar- rived yesterday from Congress on visit of inspection aud progress of the big combination shaft on the hill. Pros pector readers are famili with re- ports of the work on the hill and its significance to Tombstone.
 MT. Gage, who is the guiding spirit of the mlmmoth enterprise, which means rehabilitation of Tom bstone. was seen by Prospector reporter. "We are much pleased vita the prog ress made" said the veteran mining magnate, land find things in good shape. The work ut the four-compart- ment shaft has been proceeding at the rate of five feet per dsJ, which is not so bad Am also much encouraged in other respects, and as everything moves along, and the start made, am become ing more and more interested and will be obliged to make frequent visits here"
 Of the future work, Mr. Gage stated the big shaft would be crowded ahead i to water level. Connections with old working levels would be run, but the main object looking to the unwatering of the lower levels was the pro i gramme. The installation of heavy machinery, etc., would follow when the required depth is reached and everything in readiness for it's accom- modation.
 Regarding railroad for Tombstone Mir. Gage said matters have taken quite change since his last visit. Ru- mors are rife that Tombstone may be on two lines of railroad, the $. P Co. and the Southwestern railroad, both having designs on the city aud desirous of connecting us by rail Whether either will do so is hard te tell, but it is consummation devoutly wished for. Speaking of it Mir. Gage said "The work contemplated by Il, makes railroad practically neces sity. hope to learn more fully of in. tention within week or two"
 Of the political rumor afoat regard. ing probability of Mir. Gage being ap pointed as the Chief Executive of Ariz ona, he said: II do not know that Gov
 Murphy is to resign, but l do knov , positively that want no political of [ fee. Mining is more to my liking" } Messrs. Gage aud Staunton were bus, with Supt. Gray, looking over the work here, and expect to return north to morrow. Mir Staunton, who was form erly of Tombstone, now Supt. of tn
 Congress, and conceded to be one of tn u best versed mining meu in the west, i interested in the directing of worl
 here and may later divide much of hi

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an indamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachiau Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the re- suit, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

THE Fl Paso Times claims to have information from 0 reliable source" that the Southern Pacific will at once commence the construction of branch liue from Cochise Station, a short dis tance west of Wilcox, which will pass through Pearce, Gleason, Tombstone, Nsco, and terminate at the Cobre Grande mines, in the Cauanea moun- tains. Such line would undoubtedly be great money maker, as it would open up a rich mineral country.

One of the Presidential party, on the recent Western trip, made the observa- tion upon his return to Washington D that the irrigation sentiment in the West was something of an astonish- ment to all, and that he noticed that any allusion to the subject caused greater applause and enthusiasm than mention of the nations triumphant arms or our expanding commerce or prosperity, one or all together.-i Ma tional Irrigation.

HAzEs s. PISeREE, of Michigan, died in London last Tuesday. He was one of the most picturesque public charac- ters of recent years. Having become independent as manufacturer, he devoted himself to politics, not, it is generally believed, to togratify person al ambition, but to better the coudi- tions of his fellow-man He was originally a republican, but he de- veloped tendencies toward socialism, and at last grew into sympathy with populism aud democracy as advocated by Mir. Bryan. He was wise enough, however. to still claim his membership in the republican party, which was always glad enough to nominate and elect him to any position to which he might aspire. He was thrice elected Mayor of Detroit and once Governor of Michigan by immense majorities, as, ike Tom Johnson of Cleveland, be was the peoples friend.

The Star says au effort is now being made by the citizens of the states of Sonora and Chihuahua to arrange for their purchase by the United States. Ii the Mexican Government will set 8 reasonable price thereon, it would be a great benefit to the citizens located there and to the United States as we'll.

IN the current number of the Review of Reviews there is an article by Syl- vester Baxter entitled "The Winning War Against Consumption He takes the hopeful view indicated in this par agraph:
 Tt is now definitely established that con- sumption is curable disease. Like every other chronic malady, if it is permitted to possess itself of the system and complicate itself with other disorders. it is beyond rem edy. But, taken in time, and dealt with in it's incipient stages. recovery is practically assured. When the character of the microbe became known. it only remained to subject it to the conditions most unfayorable to its existence. Oxygen destroys it. It's dead hest enemies are pure air and light. Half an hour of sunshine is sure to kill it. And the most efficient treatment is therefore, that which gives the play to those agencies
 And Arizona can furnish the fresh air, the light and the sunshine.

THIS week the Santa Fe Pacific struck artesian water at Adamana, eighteen miles east of Holbrook, at a depth of 800 feet. The water rises twenty feet above the surface with a strong flow. In this connection att tention is called to the communication is this issue signed "J. H." in which the Board of Supervisors is urged to appropriate money for bor- ing a well in the court house yard, which the TRIBUNE considers a good suggestion. County affairs are now being conducted very economically 1; the printing costs nothing, and other expenses have been materially reduced. Why not spend few hundred dollars in testing the question whether or not there is artesian water in this valley.

Increased Cycle Exports

In view OF the already annual decrease
In the exportation Of American bicycles
from 1897 10 1900 inclusive. recent sta
tistics. indicating a stronger demand
abroad for them, are interesting.
The latest official statement on the sub

at Washington gives the amount of the
cycle exports up 10 Aug / 1901 In July
the value OF wheels shipped to the United
Kingdom was S1lio. as against t25 sss in

July. 1901, the total OF the cycle exports
TO that country was 1854 1876. as conpared
with SiS,225 during a similar period last
year.
For the one month named. the exporta
ton OF bicycles 10 France was even more
satisfactory than that to England wheels

about $500, those of the same month last
year. and for the period ending on July

that period in 1900 by nearly $1,000.
striking increase is noticeable In the

wheels sent To that country were worth
