The Western Mining World of Aug. s
says: Somewhat of a sensation was COCA
stoned the past week in Ell Paso. Texas,

The Weather.

Clouded skies, hot days and cool
nights, with gusty winds, characterized

minute shower last Tuesday relieved

preciated by everyone. The disastrous
hurricane which visited the West

for the United States. The Washington
weather bureau says it is impossible to
determine if the storm will reach the

the completion of the finest capitol

paid his attention 10 the trusts and

except in the minds of those who
depended upon it AZ political e1-
