There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, AMI until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable. For
a great many years doctors pronounced
it local disease and prescribed local
remedies. and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to to be constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, mannfac-
tured by F. J. Cheney Sc Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is TIE only constitutional cure on
the market. It il taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful.
It acts directly ON the blood and mucous

cure. Send for circulars testimonials.

A NEW OIL SHELTER
The Invention Of William Kemp an
Arizona Nan.

An Invention which promises to rev
olutionize the smelling of ore is lust
being perfected at the foundry of Car
diner. Worthen & Goss, says the Tue
son Post. William Kemp, a smelter
expert of some prominence in Arizona.
has been working for the past eighteen
months on a process for smelling ore
by the use of oil instead of coke. He
has proceeded far enough with his in
vention to insure success with a GER
tain class OF copper ore, which he
demonstrated by two runs of his fur
mace made in the past few days.
The furnace which Mr. Kemp has
constructed for experimental purposes
would smelt twenty-five tons of ore in
twcnty-four hours using coke At the
second run of the furnace which was
more successful than the first. thirty
tons of ore were successfully smelted
in twenty-four hours and the copper
matte drawn from the furnace carried
about sixty per cent copper. Thus far
the experiments have been carried on
with copper sulphide ore, using iron
and lime as n fluX. The furnace has
been practically demonstrated a sue
cess smelling sulphide ores and the in
ventor intends to further experiment
with carbonates and oxides, confident
Of being able to smelt them in his oil
furnace by the use of a very small
amout of coke. The furnace used is
an ordinary water jacket thirty-six
inches in diameter, fitted up with four
oil burners annexed to combustion
chambers whereby the oil is made into
a flame and mixed with the blast under
heavy pressure. and then is forced into
and through the ore producing roast
time.
By repeating this process with the
copper matte the inventor expects to
reduce the matte to pure copper, doing
entirely away with the expensive con-
verting process now in vogue. In the
southwest where oil is cheaper than
coke this furnace will make a saving
of from two to three dollars per ton on
ore smelted, and will entirely do away
with the roasting of sulphide ores.
Mr.. Kemp, the inventor, applied for
his first patent on his furnace about a
year ago. A patent covering every
principle of the furnace as then per-
fected was granted last April. But
since that time Mr.. Kemp has applied
for several additional patents, which
cover improvements made on his orig
inal patent He intends to carry on
his experiments on larger scale, and
as soon as he has demonstrated his
| ability to smelt other kinds Of ore by
use of oil, he will erect a much larger
| furnace at Tucson and commence to
smelt ores on a more practical scale.

the Standard Copper mines. The judges
ruling was substantially to the effect
that where conflict of interests was
shown, or rather where both parties
claimed the same ground, that an in
junction would be granted. The in
junction restraints the Standard Cop
per mines from working the ground in
dispute until the injunction can be
heard on its merits, which will probably
be in October. Messrs. Thompson and
Cascarelli were required to give a bond
of $4,000 to the Standard Copper mines
to indemnify said company against
damages sustained by them should the
case be decided in their favor. The in
junction does not interfere with the
working of the Standard mines, except
as to the ground in controversy, which
had not been worked for some weeks
past by the company. AS there are
many Standard stockholders in this
section the case attracted a consider
able amount of local interest. The
company is making regular shipments

CHICAGO'S MINING PAPER.

Up to a year ago the great central
city of Chicago was without a mining
paper. and this in the face of the fact
that there are located in this city and
vicinity several of the largest manu-
facturers of mining, smelling and gen
eral supplies, millions of dollars of
which each year are shipped In all d.
rections to consumers. There is also
more Chicago capital invested through
out the mining centers than from any
other city in this country. The owners
of the paper formerly known as the
Western Mining World, published at
Butte, Montana, DESTROYS of making
their publication more progressive and
national, seeing the opportunity Chica-
go presented removed the publication
Offices to that city. This enterprise was
Immediately rewarded, for the business
grew rapidly Recognizing the great
possibilities of the Western Mining
World. George S. Scott. of the Mining
and Scientific Press, and ]. Winchester
Holman, of the Engineering and Min
ing Journal, became interested in the
company, and the papers name was
changed to The Mining World.
In less than three months 1,122 new
subscriptions have been received. Pub
lished in the most wonderful of cities,
central to the great mineral resources
of the country, progressive, clean, with
no schemes to foist, not owned or DOM
mated by any combination or trust

take its rightful place at the head OF
