BIG SALE OF MINES.
Consideration Said to be in Excess Of
100000.

Tacoma, Wash, Feb. 25.-The largest
bona fide sale of Alaska mining prop
critics ever made was consummated last
week. For consideration said to be
in excess of 100000 eighteen quartz
properties situated on Berners bay,
Lynn canal, and long owned and oper-
ated by the Novels of Boston, passed
to the ownership of the Mine Securities
corporation of New York. composed of
capitalists of that and other cities on
the Atlantic seaboard.
Eighteen of the mines are known as
the Northern Belle group. Some OF
these properties were located and ac-
quired by Thomas S. NOVEL; his sons,
a decade ago. The Novels and their
associates have expended about $1,000
900 in the development of the proper
ties.
The deal carries with 1t transfer to
the new company of a reduction works
plant, a short railway line and small
steamer plying between Juneau and
Seward City The plants capacity of
200 tons will be increased to 1000 tons
daily. The ore supply of the combined
mines is stated to be even greater than
mine, on Douglas island. One vein on
the Kensington has a width of 100 feet.
1t is expected to keep the ore blocked
out to the maximum capacity from
three to five years ahead of the mill re-
quirements. The ore assays run from
Sc to $40 per ton in gold.
On 1,o00-ton daily basis. the proper
ties can be mined for less than 81 a ton.
Abundance of water for power with
which to run the mill and air compress

Paine's Celery Compound is the
greatest nerve tonic ever given to the
world. 1t is particularly effective when
the system is gradually wasting away
in old age and when each separate or
gan is predsposed to degeneration.
Paine's Celery Compound renders
vigorous old age possible. 1t keeps the
nervous system in normal condition
Of health; it keeps the digestive organs
in perfect condition: 1t keeps the liver
and kidneys active and in perfect
health; it nourishes nerve fibres as we'll
as muscle fibres and other tissues; 1t
keeps the nerve force strong; 1T aids
digestion; it makes rich, pure blood
and gives strength and health to those
in whom the energies of the human
body have begun to wane.
In the treatment of the infirmities
common to old age, Paine's Celery
Compound is the worlds greatest rem
edy.
William P. Snowden and his family
were the first white settlers of the town
that is now the city of Omaha. He
has had long and eventful life. His
trade was that of brickmaker. He
fought with the army of the north from
1861 to 1864. He had previously seen
service in the Mexican war in the for

trust, and there is no better known man
in Nebraska today.

Forty. five Million Bushels, or Half the
1901 Crop, One Man Says.
Mcpherson. Kas.. Feb. &c. j.
Stromquist. miller and grain dealer,
says that there is less wheat in Nc
Pherson county now that in many years
at this date He does not believe that
much more will go on the market until
the new crop is ready. as farmers must
have it for feeding or buy corn. Il have
been surprised he said. lat the amount
of wheat fed by farmers, ranging from
300 to l,500 bushels. l know of those
who, in July, sold 1000 bushels at so
cents and has since bought back hear
ly 5000 bushels for feeding. Another
bought nearly $1,000 bushels for the
same purpose. OF course, these were
stockmen My opinion is that in the
average among the $3.50 farms in the
county is not less than 500 bushels each,
which would mean 100000 bushels.
This seems high, but l do not think it is
overestimated. II we leave seventyfive
counties out of the reckoning and count
three that use as much as Mcpherson

ground that they would be unable to
remove their herds and make arrange
