Comstock's Pauper Grave.

The grave of Henry T. P. Comstock, who discovered and located the famous Comstock lode at Virginia City, Nevada, is to be marked by monument erected by P. J. Francis of Bo- zeman. Since 1870, when Com stock committed suicide on a ranch short distance from Bo- zeman, hls body has been lying in an unmarked grave in the Bozeman cemetery just east o1 that city.
 Comstock died a pauper. The Comstock lode yielded millions to the late John Mackay and James G. Fair, but to him, the man who discovered it, it brought only disappointment. Sick, dis couraged and tired of life that had been to him only a hopeless struggle from the first, Henry Comstock, in September, 1870, shot himself through the head. - Butte Miner.

NEW PLANT FOR THE CON.
 GRESS.

The Congress Gold Company, Arizona, has ordered a new pumping plant to take the place of the one destroyed by the dynamite explosion, and it is now on the way and will be installed in very short time. In ref erence to this the Prescott (Ari- zona) Journal Miner says:
 Instead of the old one being damaged, as reported, it was completely destroyed, and is a total wreck. It is stated that a clue has been obtained of the perpetrators of the deed. In fact, it is pretty definitely known who the parties are, but whether the evidence can be obtained to fasten it upon them remains to be seen. The clue will be fol- lowed up in hopes of convicting the guilty parties.

The Denver composer who wrote the song entitled "Where the Raging Colorado Wends It's Way" has just discov- cred that the Colorado river is not in the state of Colorado. The discovery was made, according to the story, when the publish ing house of Boston sent an art ist to Colorado to take 6 series of photographs of the Colorado river with which to illustrate the song for minstrel troupeS and other travelling aggregations that are desirous of presenting the attraction. To the surprise of the Boston artist he was obliged to continue his journey to Arizona to secure the pictures he desired. One of the railroad companies of Colorado is said to have subscribed literally toward the publication of the song under the impression that Colorado was the field to be advertised, whereas the scene of interest is located 500 miles away.

It is great affliction for a woman to have her face disfgured by piniples or any form of eruptive disease. It makes her morbid and sensitive, and robs her of social enjoyment Disfguring erup- tions are caused by impure blood, and are entirely cured by the great blood purifying medicine-Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It removes from the blood the poisonous impurities which cause disease. It perfectly and perman- ently cures scrofulous sores, eczema, letter, boils, pimples and other eruptive diseases which are caused by the blood s iu1purity. It increases the action of the blood-making glands and thus in- creases the supply of pure rich blood.

Maine is one of the few states whose general election is not held in Novem- Der. The state and congressional can didates will be voted for on the Sth of September, and more than usual in terest has been aroused because of the strenuous efforts of the democratic managers to score partial success. However the Maine election at this time would naturally create interest, and people generally look upon the result there as to a degree foreshadow ing the result of the national election in 1904. The democrats are going to try the efficacy of southern oratOry in their campaign. Notwithstanding, we predict that the Pine Tree State will come up with the old time republican majority and this will be the straw in- dicating which way the wind will blow i. Too1

GAGE DEFEATED.
 PARDEE, DARK HORSE
Nominated on Sixth Ballot.

Sacramento, Cal, Aug. 27.- Amid the greatest confusion Dr. George c. Pardee, of Alameda county, was nominated for gov ernor by the republican state convention.
 When the vote was finally an nounced Hayes recommended that the nomination be made unanimous, which was seconded by the Flint delegation and adopted by the convention.
 Alden Anderson was then chosen the nominee for lieuten- ant governor by exclamation.
 The defeat of Gage is regard ed as a great triumph for De Young, Spreckels and Otis, the proprietors respectively of the San Francisco Chronicle and Call and the Los Angeles Times, the leading republican papers of the state, who fought the re- nomination of Gage with much bitterness.

Very Important Project.

A report to the Los Angeles Mining Review is that certain gentlemen in Los Angeles, off cials of the Santa Fe Railway Company, have before them a proposition to construct a line ot railway from Mellon, on the Colorado river, to the Gold Road district, in Mohave county, Ari- coma. This proposed road will traverse the Boundary Cone dis trict, taking in the German American camp and the Leland group of mines.
 The distance from Mellon to the Gold Road district is twenty two miles. As soon as arrange ments for the construction of this road have been completed one stamp mill and possibly two, will be constructed on the Colo rado river near to Mellon, so that the ores from the Gold Road, Boundary Cone and German American camp may be trans ported direct to the mills, and which will be carried in self dumping cars. These new mills will have a s5ampagc capacity of POO stamps, possibly 300.
