on for about one week by means Of
hand drills. The vein recently cut by
this tunnel proved to be twenty feet in
width. II il the opinion oi the manage
mcnt that this il not the first vein
which outcrops on the surface as was at
first supposed, but Is another blind lead.
The tunnel has now advanced twenty
feet beyond the vein and is in heavily
mineralixed slate with considerable
water coming in from the face. These
facts are taken IA evidence that the
vein looked ior is not far distant from
the present face Of the tunnel.

A corn blockade with the grain
commanding high prices and the
great southwestern country buy
ing from north and east, instead
of having corn for sale, is the an
omalous condition that exists in
Kansas City. The grain men say
there are 1000 cars of corn on the
track there, and the railroad yards
SO full that it takes many days to
get corn started out of the city
after it has been ordered shipped.
Most of the corn is coming from
Iowa and northwestern Nebraska,
but the Dakotas and northern Illi-
nois are contributing large sup
plies now.

CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED

with local applications, as they cannot
reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh
is blood or constitutional disease, and
in order to cure it you must take inter-
nal remedies. Halls Catarrh Cure is
taken internally, and acts directly on
the blood and mucous surfaces. Halls
Catarrh Cure is not quack medicine
1t was prescribed by one of the best
physicians in this country for years,
and is regular prescription. 1t is
composed of the best tonics known,
combined with the best blood purifiers,
acting directly on the mucous surfaces.
The perfect combination of the two in
gradients is what produces such won
derful results in curing Catarrh. Send
