GRAND CENTRAL
PAYS $4,000
First Dividend Declared in Two
and 0ne-haIf Years.

THE WEEKS PRODUCTION Ex-
CEEDs s7S7, 600.

There was rejoicing among the share
holders OF the Grand Central Mining
company yesterday afternoon when the
news was received from Provo that the
directors had held a meeting and posted
a dividend of $25.O00 OF Zoe a share on
the capital stock Of the corporation.
The Herald's special stated that pay
ment was 90 be made on Friday next
the 2OJh, with transfer books TO close
on Wednesday next. the 18th. and re-
open on the DIST The company ceased
paying dividends with the distribution
made on Nov 10. 1900, or just after 1T
became involved On litigation with the
Mammoth company. The payment or
dered yesterday runs the total amount
which the corporation has paid its
shareholders up 20 $656.250. and the of
hcials of the company express the be
lief that regular payments can now be
resumed
Among some Of the better posted men
ON the company's affairs the impression
prevailed during the afternoon that the
declaring OF the dividend was the result
Of assurances from Boston that the deal
for the control with the Bingham COM
20 would be Clinched within the next
few days.
II Is no secret that some little time
ago the chief holders of Grand Central
shares consented 20 contribute to a pool
10000 shares which were 90 be deliv-
cred 90 the Bingham company on pay
ment of $3.50 per share. or total OF
$l55,000. Previous TO acquiring this Op-
ton Bingham Consolidated interests al
ready held 10000 shares, so the number
mentioned would place the control Of
the property in their hands.
The belief was also expressed that the
Bingham company had a tWO-fOld pur-
pose I'm landing the Grand Central one
was that it would be able TO get all the
silicious ore needed for its smelter
without running the risk Of seeing long
time contracts from other concerns

other than by the argument of one
man. who said.
There is no ghost Of a show Of the
present management of the Mammoth
and Grand Central companies ever
reaching a basis OF compromise. This
fight has become too bitter for that on
the other hand. there is no feeling be-
tween the Bingham Consolidated crowd
and Mr.. Mcintyre and. while I have

Extent Undetermined.
I'm It's review OF operations at the
Majestic company's mines during the
past week the Milford Times says.
Preparations are being made to in
stall electric drills at the o. X. and
the old Hickory Foundations are be-
ing laid for the generator at the o..
X. and FIVE drills will be operated
at the start Colonel Parish has adopt
ed the electric drills largely on account
of the cheapness with which they can
be operated. The power for the gem
orator IS taken from the gasoline
hoist and 10 requires but two horse
power for each drill.
"a most interesting Gre body is being
opened M on the 200 level of the o.

east it encountered a portion Of the
vein I'm which the ore is i'm its orig

touched by water. IL is the only ore
yet found in the mine that does not

ing ore The body is OF unknown
extent it having been penetrated for
"a distance OF ten feet, with no sign
OF a wall. A chute three to four feet
thick will probably carry 10 per- cent
copper. and this ore can be sent di-
rect to the smelter without sorting.
The new working shaft on the o. X.
is now $50 feet deep and the gasO-
line hoist now at the depot viii be
taken up 20 the mine as soon as the
roads become a little firmer
AT the Nicksburg the shaft IS 40
feet deep and Is being pushed down
through the gold-bearing iron Gaping
The new hoist is in place and the shaft
house and gallOws frame are about
completed.
AT the Harrington Hickory the
main working shaft that is being sunk
on the Adelia vein is now down over
100 feet. Work has also been resumed
on the Conner shaft, now 1870 feet deep,
which viii be sent on down to the
vein probably 100 feet further.
AT the Old Hickory Manager Parish
finds most gratifying conditions. The
Wine from the tunnel level is now
down twenty-five feet. an I'm ore of
character that would be considered
very fine by the people Of other cop

TIE FEAR OF HUmBUe
Prevents Many People From Trying
q Good Medicine.

Stomach troubles are so common and
in most cases so obstinate to cure that
people are apt to look with suspicion
on any remedy claiming to be a radical,
permanent cure for dyspepsia and indi-
gestion. Many such pride themselves
on their acuteness in never being hum
plugged. especially in medicines.
This fear Of being humbugged can be
carried too Tar. so far, ia fact, that
many people suffer for years with weak
digestion rather than risk a little time
and money in faithfully testing the
claims made Of a preparation so relia-
bic and universally used as Stuart
Dyspepsia Tablets.
l0w, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important re-
spect from ordinary proprietary medi-
cines for the reason that they are not
a secret patent medicine, no secret is
made Of their ingredients. but analysis
shows them to contain the natural di-
gestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin,
the digestive acids, Golden Seal, bis
muth, hydratis and nuX They are not
cathartic. neither do they act power
fully on any organ, but they cure indi-
gestion on the common sense plan of
digesting the food eaten thoroughly be-
fore 1t has time to ferment, sour and
cause the mischief. This Is the only
secret of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure Indigestion and stomach trOu-
bles because they act entirely on the
bowels, whereas the whole trouble is
really in the stomach
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken aft
er meals digest the food. That is all
there is to it. Food not digested or
half digested is poison as IL creates
gas, acidity, headaches. palpitatlOn OF
the heart, loss Of flesh and appetite and
many other troubles which are often
called by some other name.
They are sold by druggists every
where at so cents per package.

Copyright, 1903, by c. B. LewisJ %UA HE German tailor had made a
 M timid call on Major Crofoot,
 A grand promoter and general
 schemer, with a little bill for repairs to a suit, and as the major received and glanced at the bill he said:
 My dear MT. Schwartzenhammer this bill is made out in a business way and footed up correctly. It specifies that I owe you 90 cents for services rendered do not dispute it. On the contrary, admit the indebtedness and will now proceed to discharge it and show my gratitude at the same time. I propose to take you into one of the most gigantic schemes of the age with me and divide the profts.''
 ''I like my 90 cent" replied the tailor as he looked puzzled and perplexed.
 ''You shall have them, my dear man, and millions more on top of them. Lis ten to me. I am about to contract for the entire huckleberry crop of next year at cents a quart and raise the price to 20. The estimated crop is 9S,- 672,235 quarts; net profits, $S90,OO0. A clean, tidy business, with no tar or grease to soil your hands and quick returns on capital invested. No politics or religion in it, and the public must have huclzleberries no matter what the price. Capital stock limited to $50,OOO and all shares nonassessable. Apply at once. All shareholders entitled to hue kleberries at contract prices. You shall come in with me, and we will make an even whack of expenses and profits. I shall want $1OO from you to help incor- porate the concern. Can you pay it to- day?"
 "You-you mean I vhas to gif you one hoonered dollar?'' stammered the creditor as his hair fairly stood up.
 "Yes; that will do at present, provid- ed you want to make about $250,OOO during the next year. Perhaps, how ever, you don't want to waste your time on such small potatoes. If not let me call your attention to another sure thing strictly original with me. It is to buy 10000 acres of New Jersey marsh lands and cultivate celery. The title of the organiza ton is to be the Great Un- limited New Jersey Celery Growers association. Our capital will be limited, but our celery will not.
 "You can see for yourself what there is in it. Twenty thousand acres at $2 per acre is $40.OOO. Each acre will raise $6O worth of celery, making the seasons crop turn in $1,25O,OOO. Say it takes the $2OO,OOO to pay for seed and labor and sundries, and yet there is a cool million to divide between us. Don't

 let this scheme get away from you, my friend. Huckleberries may get sun- burned and the price come down, but celery takes no risks.
 Certificates of shares will be out next week, and you never saw finer printing in colors. If you can bring me in $150 this afternoon as your half of the expenses of incorporation and buying postage stamps I will be ready to select the land and close deal next week. What do you say!"
 "I-I don't understand her," replied the tailor. "You owe me 90 cent, but you don't pay.''
 That is a concise statement of the case, my dear MT. Schwartzenhammer that is, do not pay ready cash, but in place of it I offer you a fortune in the immediate future. Perhaps you do not care to go into huckleberries
 or celery? We all have our little fdioms, you know. Very we'll. 'I now call your attention to the Great American Matrimonial and Trust company. A person, either male or female, desiring to enter into the bonds of wedlock calls at the office and leaves name and particulars and pays a fee of from $25 to $25O to be guar anteed. No sparkling, no jealousy, no loss of time. Marriages brought about
 within an hour if so desired. Parties afterward supplied with money for the bridal tour and set up in house keeping on the installment plan. Dis positions most positively guaranteed. No fear. of marrying drunkard on the one hand or a bIeached blond on the other. Mothers-in-law kept at q safe
 distance or put out of the way entire ly. Every marriage warranted for ten years if rules and regulations are lived
 up to. Are you catching on, my friend?'
 Il bring i'll bill for 90 cent" re
 piled the tailor, "and you put him down on der desk" 'Just so, but let us continue little farther and see where our millions are
 coming from. There are in the United States at this moment 47S,245 mar riageable girls. Make the average fee $50, and you see what there is in 1t. A dividend of at least 25 per cent can
 be declared every year. Keep your eye on this scheme until you can unload

take his horse, great concession, Godfrey knew.
 "Yes, gah, Massa Godfrey, Missy Jane am home, sah," Gabriel de- clared, too sure of the fact to wait to ask his young mistress about it.
 Godfrey, anticipating a better op- portunity for private converse with Jane outside, declined the invitation to enter the house and settled him self upon one of the seats which ran along the side of the portico. Lightning-bugs were flashing among the trees of the avenue; a katydid set up plaint in the wistaria vine beside him; in the dark depths of the woods an owl was hooting. The si- fence of night was falling, and with it had come the night-sounds.
 Gabriel hurried up to Jane's room to announce Godfrey's arrival, and not finding her there hastened with the utmost confidence to MT. Ellery's sitting room, for at this time in the evening Jane and her stepmother were likely to be with the invalid.

CHAPTER XIV.
HE DID A-wooING GO.

1t was the second evening after the Americans had so cleverly given the British the slip that Capt. Worth, hngton set forth from his fathers horse. The captains continental uni xOrm nad been lald aside, and he was attred in the most approved riding costume for gentlemen of that day. His high-top boots so shone that you could have used them for mirrors with the greatest ease; his knee brooches were of finest broadcloth; i; the frils of his shirt were beauti- fully pinked, while the playful even ing breeze toyed with his open coat just enough to display it's rich crim- son lining. Those who had seen him two days before would scarce have thought he could turn out such a flop.
 When he reached the Ellery place and dismomted to open the great gates which led to the avenue the sun was just sinking behind the strip of woodland to the west, while such of the west windows of the mansion as were closed blushed brilliant red under the ardor of it's goodnight kiss.
 The low branches of the handsome eIms bent towards him with mur- murous greeting; a toad hopped from out the bordering grass and looked up at him with beady, friendly eyes; dog came from around the house and ran towards him with joyously wagging tail and gay bark. All be- spoke a gracious welcome. When he reached the front door there was no need to lift the heaTy knocker, for Gabriel had caught sight of him from somewhere within and hastened to meet him. while Ahaa1asaa came to.
