ANTS AND LEMONADE.

"Did you ever know thaa ants will

grocer. relates the Philadelphia Rec
ord. "Yes, it's fact. happened to
cut lemon the other day, and left II
on the counter. A couple OF minutes
later noticed bunch Of ants making
a great to do around the lemon. The
antics of the little insects were so
methodical that took a few minutes
off TO investigate. A little sugar had
been spilled on the counter near the
spot where the lemon lay, and the ants
were busy making trips between the
sugar and the fruit. You may not
believe it, sir, but every time one of
the little creatures made the trip he
carried back grain of sugar, which
was dropped into the lemon juice and
then eagerly devoured.
at struck me that maybe the man
ufacture OF the lemonade was only an
accidental process, due 10 the close
proximity of the sugar and the lemon,
so | carefully swept the sugar away
II seems incredible, but as true as I'm
standing here those ants hunted
around until they found the sugar bar

dipped in the juice and swallowed.

On Friday the house committee on
commerce took up the subject OF a
Pacific cable. Mr.. George 6. Ward,
vice president OF the Commercial
Pacific Gable company, explained
the plans of his company. He
said that the company had awarded
contracts for the construction and lay
ing of cable to Hawaii by the first of
November and that they proposed to
push on to Manila at the earliest
possible date. He said that the cable
was being manufactured at the rate OF
two thousand and forty miles a month.
The rates which the company expects
to charge are 81 per word to Manila
and from So to 90 cents per word to
Honolulu.
The friends of Admiral Schley are

lieve to be a mistaken kindness on
the part of some of the members OF

They believe that before this is done
the position of the present congress
should be ascertained beyond a doubt
as they feel that an exoneration OF the
admiral, irrespective Of party lines, would
be much more of an honor than II it
should ome from but one party.

Din monds in Idaho.

A special 10 the Independent from

that, according to Clifford Deo, the
discoyeror, the fields cover an area Of
10 miles long and four miles wide. Deo
brought in a large number Of the stones,
which he found on a hunting trip, on
the side Of ant hills. Some Of the stones
that we're examined and thoroughly

sapphires Of an excellent quality similar
to the white sapphires found in the

Brain-Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent authori'
ties. They have dispeled the silly
notion that one kind Of food is needed
for brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet. however good your food may
be, its nutriment is destroyed by indi-
gestion or dyspepsia. You must pre-
pare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses Of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine Of the healthy millions. A
few doses aide digestion, stimulates the
liver to healthy action, purifes the

Prominent Mining Men
Visit the Orc Grande Nine.

George P. Brown, field engineer
for the Lower California Develop
ment Co., spent Sunday here look
ing at the Grand View group of
claims, owned by Ed. and Phil
Virgins and J. H. Sayre. Mr..
Brown made a thorough examina-
ton of the property and took num-
erous samples, and while he had
little to say, he seemed pleased
with the showings seen and it is to
be hoped his company will take
hold of this excellent property.
Mr.. Brown also visited the Orc
Grande, in company with Ed.
Virgins, and E. R. Hall of the
News-Herald. He was shown all
through the mine from top to bot
tom and said it was a big thing,
one of the finest and largest ore
bodies he had ever seen, and was
particularly pleased with the rich
shoot of oxidized iron-quartz which
was struck last week in the cross
cut on the 300. Mr.. Brown cal
culated that there was enough ore
blocked out to keep 100 stamps
dropping for several years. Ore
OF this character should be able TO
be treated at a cost of 81 per ton
and from the way the ore pans,
the mine should be one of the
biggest dividend payers in the
country. Mr.. Virgins, who is one
of the most experienced and prac-
tical mining and mill men in Ari-
IONA, having been the chief engi-
neer and millman at the Vulture
and Harqua Hala mines and later
in charge of large properties in
California, was greatly astonished
at the great size an richness of the
ore body and said that the Orc
Grande alone would support one
of the largest towns in this part OF
the territory, when the reduction
works were running,

one of the officers of and large

Mining Company, which owns and

OF claims about sixteen miles north

everything in a fourishing condi-

reached a depth Of 300 feet, with
fine ore all the way down. A
cross-cut will be run from this lev.
ell until the permanent foot-wall is
reached. From the surface show
ings, it will be some distance, as
the ore body on top is several hun.
dred feet wide, assaying from few
dollars well up into the hundreds.
AS soon as the continuity of the
ore body is proved at depth, a re-
duction plant will be erected. Ac-
cording to many prominent min
ing engineers, the Leviathan has
great future. The last 100 feet of
work in the shaft was done in 80

News From the Black
Rock Mining District

Editor News Herald,
DEAR SIR:-We hear a good deal
of talk the last few days that Mr..
Burson has received 100000 more
to be spent in developing the Bur-
son property. We all hope it is
true for what this district needs
more than anything else is deep
shaft, one that will go below any
trace of oxidized ore, and, unless /
am misinformed, there is not a
shaft in the district that has been
sunk to that depth, We all know
of the rich surface ores, but what
will the change be below the per-
manent water level?
1t has often been said here that
we don't have to go deep to get
good mines. That they are so big
on the surface like the Vulture
and Orc Grande which have mill
ions right at the grass roots, of
high grade ore, that they don't care
what is below. But some of us
would like to know, and nothing
but deep shaft will ever prove it.
Mr.. White keeps adding to his
force of men on the White group.
Some very fine lead and gold ore
was taken from the mine this week.
In the Black Rock property the
ore continues to get better in the
north crosscut which is now in o.
yer so feet with ore all the way.
There is no trace of sulphides on
