Danger of Colds and Grin.

The greatest danger from colds and

reasonable care is used, however, and

danger will be avoided. Among the tens

for these diseases we have yet to learn Of
single case having resulted in pneumo-

that every oFe-bearing vein or string

victory was achieved from obstinate
trouble and apparent defeat.
In many cases good mines are re-
tsrded in their progress by reason of
extensive and expensive litigation.
Lawsuits in mining usually arise
from either real or faucied defects

that in such eases an ounce of pre-

whose reputation as a practical at

judge c. G.. Parsons Of Denver, a

work Much of the territory owned
by the ROYAL is protected by govern
ment patent, and applications for
patents TO cover the balance are be-
irg prepared under the direction of
the eminent gentlemen mentioned.
As q matter OF fact it may be stated
that no contests are apprehended.
Indeed, there seems to be no chance
whatever for litigation, as titles
were obtained from owners who have
been in undisturbed possession for
many years.
In providing the magnificent
equipment with which it has been
decided to work Il &c properties. it
has been decided to waste no time
That the result may be accomplished
without delay, the services of the
mechanical engineers engaged are

and the instructions are to hurry the
work to completion at the earliest
possible date Let 1t be stated here
that in this work-tho development
and equipment Of the Royal-aH ele-

is not speculation; If is a great
and magnificent business enterprise
