CAUSES OF HAY FEVER.
HyOmi the Only Cure Gives Change

Fifty years ago. hay fever had not
been named, but undoubtedly people
suffered then as they do now with
storms of sneezing. profuse watering Of
the eyes, excessive running at the nose,
intense smarting and itching and stuff
ed up feeling in the head.
The direct causes appear to be heat,
dust and the pollen Of flowers. AL
though hay fever may occur at any sea-
son of the year. it is most common ana
severe in August and preventive treat
ment should be adopted some weeks
before the time the disease is due.

mel the only treatment that gave relief
to hay fever sufferers. was change of
climate The use of Hyomei enables
any one to breathe air at home which
is like that OF the Adirondacks. the
White Mountains or other health resorts
where healing balsams fill the air with

Those who are subject to hay fever
should begin the use Of Hyomef at once
and thus prevent the disease. An ounce

Bright IS the ring of words
When the right man rings them,
Fair the fall OF songs
When the singer sings them
Still they are caro1led and said
on wings they are carried
After the singer is dead
And the maker buried.

In the field of heather,
Songs of his fashion bring
The SWANS together.

With the sunset embers,
The lover fingers and sings

CLIMAX GOLD co.
A Promising Property Forty Five
 Miles North of Phoenix.

J. K. Truman, superintendent of the Climax Gold company, which is operat- ing a well known property at Quartz mountain came up from the south yeS- terday where he has been for the past four or five weeks installing new ma = chinery on property in which he is interested known as the Orizaba prop erty and being operated by the Orizaba Mining company, composed mostly of Belgian capitalists, says the Prescott
 Journal Miner. The property is To- cated about forty-f five miles north Of Phoenix. The machinery that has just
 been installed consists of 25-horse power boiler and a 15-horse power
 hoist which will give them a capacity for sinking 800 feet. MT. Truman has
 owned the property for several years
 but on account of the character of the ore he never had the means to develop it. The ore is solid iron and copper sulphides carrying between 10 and 15 per cent copper and about S4 in gold
 The ledge is mammoth one cropping out for over 150 feet across. The shaft was started in the canyon which is about 300 feet from the apex of the mountain, and at 26 feet the sulphide ore was encountered in a solid body, and at depth of 65 feet a cross cut was run 14 feet and no walls have been struck as yet so 1t is not known how wide the vein really is. Contracts have been let for the continuation of the de- velopment work, and MT. Truman is very enthusiastic over the outlook Of the mine. It is a smelting proposition.

A GOURD VINE.
And Only a Part of the Whole Ser
 mon'' that it Suggests.

The bean-stalk that is associated with Jack the Giant Killers ascent to the dwelling of the monster who smelt the blood of an Englishman is a rea> sonable possibility. So also is the growth of Kansas corn. I have a gourd vine that is the amaZement of the conn munity in which it thrives. It grows one foot a day on the average. It's best day was thirteen and one-half in- ches. It is already fifteen feet high. and is now reaching out it's grappling hooks for shingles on the roof. What is more delicate than these grappling hooks of a gourd vine that is too weak to support itself? In a few hours three or four will suddenly leap out to catch hold of something. They are from six inches to a foot in length. No larger than knitting needles, they feel about like the tentacula of the lobster, or the vibrissae of the cat tribe. They seem to be endowed with life, If unable 10 find anything on which to fasten them selves, they will nope for awhile in dis appointment, then embrace each other in a death struggle, their mission on earth ended.
 There is a whole sermon in this gourd vine. The tendrilS. morphologically speaking, are as tactile hairs, which. the moment they touch a foreign ob- ject, become strangely prehensile. Two. three, or four twists are made around it. Then begins a hardening process insuring a safe and secure fastening This being accomplished, all that part of the tendril as; far down as the stalk of the vine converts itself into a spiral spring, which gradually draws the vine up to the object seized upon. This spring not only acts as grappling hook, but permits the vine to yield to the storm sufficiently to avoid sudden snapping off. The yellow, tulip-shaped flowers open with the sun to admit bees for pollen, and close up tight abou, g o'clock. Woe to the bee that is im- prisoned. The gourd vii grow in what ever direction you care to train it, and It drinks water like a fish.-New York Press

RAMIREZ VS. MAIN
It Now Seems To Be Case of Main
 Vs. Ramirez.

It will be remembered that a few weeks ago a clerk in the Mexican cus- tom house at Nogales gambled away a large sum of his superior officer s money in the establishment of Frank Main of NogaleS, then killed himself Senor Ramirez, the customs officer be gan a very unique suit for the recovery of the money. Regarding the suit the Nogales Times says:
 Tn the district court yesterday Fra nk Main. by his attorneys, Richardson & Ekey, filed his answer to the complaint summons and writ Of attachment in the case of Ramirez vs. Main. A demurrer and counter claim were also filed. It is a five-page do. .ument, long and full of legal verbiage.
 Tn the first place it denies the juris- diction of the court for the reason that the subject matter wholly occurred within the Republic of Mexico. Alleges plaintiff upon the defendant for the money, and denies all the allegations of the complaint. The counter claim sets up that by reason of the attach ment, the sheriffs taking possession of the house and business, that the cus- toners were driven away his reputa tiOn injured as a business man in the community, that his trade has fallen off and he prays for damages in the sum of $10,000, for costs and for general and special relief"

IRON SPRINGS INCIDENT
A Fake Robbery at That Famous
 Summer Resort.

Iron Springs. Aug. 7.-(Speciel corre- spondence The Republican.)-A daring and unprecedented robbery is about all that distinguished the past week at Iron Springs from its predecessor. Early in the week a "one- night stand house party had been arranged by one of the young women for some seven or eight of her giIl friends. With that confiding disposition so characteristic of the feminine sex, the occasion talk ing place on one Of the dance evenings, these seven or eight damsels, each ac- companied by suspiciously shaped bundle, hied themselves to the pavilion where the aforementioned bundles were deposited in an orderly pile in the shade of the sheltering piano. At the conclusion of next to the last dance of the evening. to the great consternation of all concerned, it was discovered that each and every bundle had been ab- stracted by some miscreant-name un- known Long and anxious were the protestatiOns from the suspected. but all of no avail; the seven or eight bundles were not forthcoming and finally night, with it's quieting and darkening effect, ercompassed the members of the house party in lieu of the garments which are usually con- sidered appropriate on such occasions. Next morning the seven or eight bun dies were found reposing peacefully in the shade of the aforementioned shell tering piano; and thus, so it seems, ends the great robe de nuit robbery at Iron Springs.

EGYPTIANS NOT NEGROES.
A Big Blunder by Senatoor Burton in 2
 Debate with Senator Tillman.

A United States senator is not eX- pected to know everything, but he ought to know that the ancient Egypt ians were not negroes, and that the daughter of the priest of Midian, whom Moses married, was not negress. Senator Burton, of Kansas, evidently does not, for he would not intentionally mislead the people of Moline before whom he discussed the negro question with Senator Tillman. There were negroes in Egypt thousands of years ago. but they were slaves. The Egp- tians themselves, the ancestors of the present inha of the country, were not blacks. The mumnies, the statues, the pictures in the tombs and the language prove that they were not.
 Senator Tillman and others argue that the inability of the blacks to make something of themselves in Africa is strong evidence of their racial infer iority. That argument cannot be met by an assertion that Egyptian civiliZa- ton. with it's powerful government, it's organized religion, its written language, and it's artistic skill was developed by black men, for it was not.
 Senator Burton ought to admit that the black race is at present inferior in- tellectually to the white race, and then contend that the progress which the American negroes have made in the hard school which they have attended for two and a half centuries furnishes evidence that they are capable of fur ther advancement, and that 1t is a crime to say that nothing shall be done to aid them. Senator Tillman admits that he believes the negroes can be

 John Storey has gone to work for the Double Sunset Mining and Milling company, who have their new whim in place and will now push develop ment work with renewed energy.
 c. B. Besworth. president of De Queen of Sheba Mining company, has been figuring on a route for q wagon road down east White Tail to San Simon. over which to ship his ore it being a shorter haul than to Wilcox.
 Messrs. Murat, Sweeton and Jones are making good headway with their contract on the Demorest copper prop erty. The ground is becoming softer and it looks as though they will strike the lead at any time.
 George Gardner is busy sinking a shaft on his lead property and will go 50 feet before cross scouting for the ore. He has some very handsome specimens of lead carbonates that came from the bottom of his upper shaft. Chris Grauer and Jack Edwards are working on some claims they located some time ago and are being rewarded with copper pyrites.
