will be installed as consul Lao Ngan
Tow will go to Cuba, where he will take
charge of the consulate, succeeding Chow
TIE Chi, who will come to San Fran
cisco as consul. X. r. Shah will become
consul at New York.
Minister Cheng Tung LANG Cheng in
an interview said:
Il can nave no better example that that
of Minister WI. He tried to educate the
American people out of their prejudice
against my countrymen as a race. OF
course 1 realize that the Americans will
never permit the unrestricted coming OF
Chinese laborers. Nobody desires that.
1 don't think it will be wise if they did.
But the American government and Amer
lean statesmen have shown the most
friendly spirit toward China in the
troublous times of the last three years,
and 1 hope much from that. 1 will main
tain friendly relations and will try to do
what l can along the lines marked out
by Minister WI to secure an amelioration
of existing laws. I know what unrestrict-
ed immigration would mean and I realize
how much this is an issue with the Amer
lean people and American politics. 1 will
do what 1 can but don't expect to do
too much. 1t is a question of hoping"
Asked concerning the renewal of the
Boxer troubles reported, especially from
Canton. Sir Liang said:
THE Canton trouble was not at all
serious. 1 was there at the time Of its
occurrence. Canton is my home. There
were a few arrests; that ended it. Really
it was a disturbance and a very slight
one, fomented by a mob without leader
ship and without organization There
was nothing else to it. But ii might have
been serious if these had been leaders.
mo, it was not the work of the follow
ers of Kang Yu Wei 1t is most unjust to
him to say that. 1t was another faction
altogether that caused the trouble. But
there has not been, and I think Will not
be a renewal of the Boxer troubles. China
is at peace with the world and will re-
main at peace. The newspapers are print
ing stories of renewed outbreaks, but 1
think they are only taking advantage of
the public ignorance concerning China to
amuse their readers

Contest Begun by Ordering New
Venire of Jurors.

Colorado Springs, March 27.-Judge
Seeds this afternoon granted the motion
of the attorneys for the executors of w.
s. STATIONS will to quash the panel of
jurors in attendance upon the district
court and ordered new venire, return
able Saturday next, when the selection
of jury to try the will contest will be

ONLY PARTLY TRUE
Popular Ideas Regarding catarrl

Popular toedS heQdFoih9 OdtdTfn.
1t is the common belief that what is
popularity known as catarrh is simply a
chronic cold in the head. This is true as
far as it goes. but as a matter of fact
catarrh is by no means confined to the
nasal passages, but extends wherever
the mucous membrane extends, which
means nearly every part of the body.
The mucous membrane is the inside skin
of the body and is nearly as extensive
as the outside skin, and any Inflammation
of this membrane causing an extra secre-
ton of fluid is really catarrh.
Catarrh is therefore an old enamy
disguised by many confusing names. for
instance; Rhinitis is nasal catarrh: 1aryn-
gifts and pharyngitis throat catarrh; gas
tritis, stomach catarrh; crystitis and
nephritis, catarrh of the bladder and kid
neys.
Therefore, although the location of the
trouble gives it various names, in reality
the sum total is catarrh and nothing else
Do not make the mistake of thinking
you have no catarrh because the head and
nose appear to be clear. If there is a
cough, tickling in the throat and hoarse-
ness you have throat catarrh. if there is
no appetite, but nausea, gagging and dis
gust for food especially in the morning,
you have catarrh Of the stomach.
The surest treatment for every form
of catarrh is an internal remedy which
acts especially on the blood and mucous
membranes; such a remedy is the new
preparation sold everywhere by drug
gists under the name of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, a medicine in pleasant tablet
form and containing all the best and
latest specifics for catarrh.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain in
highly concentrated form, bloodroot, red
gum of the eucalyptus tree, and many
other equally valuable curative elements,
and no one who suffers from any form
of catarrh and has seen the inefficiency
of douches, sprays and powders will ever
go back to them after once trying so
pleasant a preparation as Stuart
Catarrh Tablets and one which gives so
much relief in so short a time
All druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets at 80 cents for full sized package and
the regular, daily use of them will
effectually cure this troublesome and dam
gerous disease.

ydparmn OF
FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF CLIFTON
radtosr OF in atsR manner
ared to serve you in satisfactory manner

the deposit has been confined between
the summit aud the contact of the
mountain with the neighbOring noun
tains at points l5Do feet below the sum-
nit. At the points in question tun-
nels have been driven into the copper
bearing mass. The principal one of
these tunnels penetrates The mountain
from side to side This tunnel has a
total length OF $500 feet From this
tunnel. at a point which Is very nearly
in the heart of the mountain, two
other tunnels or drifts have been
driven distances of from 1900 to 1900
feet at right angles with the main
tunnel, for the purpose Of exploring
the mountain on bctG=ef des of the
main tunnel. These workings have
encountered many veins of high grade
ores. but for the greater portion of
their courses they traversed ores
which have an average of p per cent.
copper contents. In no place is there
any barren ground in the tunnels.
From the tunnels wines have been
sunk. and raises made to connect with
the upper workings, and all of these
are IN ore, proving that the entire
mountain, from surface to center. and
from summit to the tunnel level, is ore.
The Porvenir tunnel, which is be-
ing driven from the terminus of the
railroad at the mine to tap the ore de-
posits at depth of $500 feet below the
summit, was in ore when operations in
it had to be suspended on account Of
the enormous volume of water which
issued from the face at distance of
nearly two miles from the mouth. 1t
is the intention of this company to
continue this tunnel into the heart of
the cOpper-bearing mountain Just as
soon as the flow of water is sufficiently
diminished. Through the tunnel the
railroad trains will be :aken into the
workings OF the mine, and there
loaded with ores destined tor the
smelters at NacOzari This will be
one of the most remarkable Of innOva-
tions, and will result in an economic
triumph OF Phelps, Dodge & Co , that
will take its place beside the most
noted feats of mining.
The ores of the MocteZuma mine are
among the best in the world for con-
centration. 1t is estimated that they
could be worked without loss, if they
contained but one-half of l per cent.
copper. Phelps. Dodge & Co. have
erected at Nacozari concentratin G and
smelling plants at cost of $500, 600.
These plants are capable Of turning
out As much as 100 tons of pure copper
per day. When they are running to
their full capacity, the profits of

TWO INTERESTING
MEXICAN MINES,
They Are Situated in One of the
Country's Most Inaccessible
Mountain Ranges.

BY M Francis p savinien in Modern Mexico
The two most remarkable mines OF
Mexico, as far as geological formation
and magnitude are concerned. are the
Moctezuma and the CincO de Mayo,
both in the State Of Sonora. These
mines are In the district of Mocte-
yuma, which is noted because of the
volcanic activity that has occurred
within it OF late years.
Most extensive of all the copper de-
posits Of the world i that which is be-
ing developed in the Moctezuma mine.
The mine is about six miles from
Nacozari, or, rather. Placeritas de
Nacozari, one OF the Oldest mining
centers in Sonora. From Nacozari a
broad -guage railroad runs to the mine.
traversing in its course some OF the
toughest mountains in the state and
making an ascent OF 1900 feet in its six
miles Of length.
The Moctezuma mine is owned by
Phelps, Dodge x Co, OF New York.
1t was purchased by this company
from the Guggenheim Exploration
Company for the sum of 81 ,000, 900
gold, the latter company selling it be-
cause it did not care to make the
enormous investments which were
necessary to make the property pro-
ductive. Since their acquisition of
the mine. Phelps, Dodge & Co have
expended over 81, 200, 900 gold in the
development and equipment required
to make the property a source of profit.
An additional expenditure of about
900. 900 gold for the construction of
tweuty-eight miles of railroad from
Teachout's Canyon to Nacozari, must
be made before all the plans OF the
New York company will be completed.
At the present time the smeiter.
which is located at Nacozari, for the
treatment of the ores of the mine, is
being operated. but until the railroad
is finished it will be supplied only with
the highest grades of ores, and in con-
sequence cannot be worked to its full
capacity.
According to all the mining engi-
neers who have examined the Mocte-
yuma mine. it is the greatest low grade
copper proposition on earth. The
mine is simply Il mountain OF ore,

AN INTERESTING
TRIP DESCRIBED
Hon. A. J. DOran Tells Of His Recent
Travels in Northern Portion Of
Arizona.

Hon. \. j. Doran, who left recently
for St. Louis for the purpose Of letting
the contract for the erection OF the
Arizona building, has but lately re-
turned from an extended trip through
ont the northern portion of the terri
tory, says the Prescott Herald. In
speaking Of his trip, Mr.. DOran said
that during his absence he travelled
for seventy-fve miles over
what j. known a. the painted desert,
which, he says is most interesting
section. containing large deposits OF
copper which are at present out Of the
market owing to their isolated lOca-
tion. In this region he passed through
pctrihcd forest, some OF the trees
being 100 feet in length and intact.
They are not agalizcd a. are those in
the much advertised Arizona petriticd
forest. Here and there are riles OF
pctrihcd splintcrs from the trees.
Some Of the wood is slightly agatizcd.
The country gets it name Of painted
desert from many mounds Of various
colOred mud scattered over its surface.
The country is covered with this mud g,
ehalc and sandstone. Beyond Coco
ninO Point the sandstone strata seems
to have been pushed back to make way
for an open valley, on either side Of
which the sandstone formation towers
to height Of Thousand feet or more.
In this open valley i located the
