Combination.

A big parallel ledge has been struck
in the l3O-foot level # the Combination,
at point about 800 feet west OF the
shaft. The ore where encountered is
not rich enough to ship bat higher
grade ore may be found in drifting.
The production at other points remains
about as usual. Work on the new office
building and on the mill is proceeding
slowly as it is impossible to get ma

Notes of the Mines.


On the Curley George claim OF the
Coming Nation group the shaft is now
down 80 feet, with ore in the bottom
showing values.
Mernin, Knickerbocker, Casey and
Arden have sold the Knickerbockers
Nos. l, 2 and to Walters and La Fargo.
The claims lie about 3 1-2 miles east.
Ike Mckay, the well-known and com
petent mining man, has been appointed
general superintendent for the Gold
field Mining and the AdamsGoldfeld
companies.
A force of men has been put TO work
on the property OF the Big Elk Mining
company. Ledge matter has been en-
countered and the surface indications
are very i.vorabie.
Clarence Logan, Tom Kendall, VIM.
Douglass, John McQuillan and j. p.
Hennessy have taken lease on the
Kendall claim, north of where the
marvellous strike was recently made.
The property of the Golden Lode Min
ing company at Gold Reef was inspected
by T. c. Lockhart, owner of the st.
Ives, and Barton Pittman. They ex-
pressed themselves as being very
favorably impressed with the Golden
Lode and the entire Gold Reef district
The United Goldfeld Mining com
pany, a recent incorporation, owning
the Kangaroo group, has granted a
lease on it's holdings. The lessees have
opened up five foot ledge from which
they have obtained some good paintings.

with the showing.
w. s. Tarbell of Colorado Springs,
Colo, and Henry Weber Of this city
have made the first payment on the pur-
chase of the Grandma lode claim that
adjoins the Spearhead on the west. The
claim is very favorably located and
makes a very good showing. A strong
vein has been exposed on the property
to depth of IA feet. The balance on
the bond will be paid in 10 and 20 days.
The claim will be extensively developed
by the purchasers.
Woodward, Lothrop and associates,
who recently took lease on the Flor
ence, have encountered cross vein
running northeast and southwest. The
find was made about 10 feet beyond
where Lockhart and McClelland, former
lessees stopped work. Not enough work
has been done to fully determine the
extent of the strike, but the ledge is
good strong one and part at least is of
shipping grade.

Goldfield Mining Co.

Under the direction of Superintendent
McKay-the Goldield Mining company
has started development work on the
September, October, St. Paul, Henry
Clay and Cracker Jack claims. Some
people have the notion that this com
pany owns only the Janrarv claim, but
it not only owns the above-named
claims also, but they are among the
most valuable, prospectively, in the
camp, and the development work now
begun will possibly show up another
big bonanza.

T. J. Post and some other miners from
Colorado have secured Il lease on the
Contention claim. They have been
prospecting the ground fer several days,
and it is known that they found some
rock carrying good values, but they
would not show the assay returns. 1t
is understood that Didrick Virgins, a
prominent Colorado mining engineer, is
interested in the latter lease.

Producing Area Extended.

By strike which was made this week
on the Brooklyn and Good Hope groups
the producing area OF Goldfell has been
greatly extended. a big strong ledge
runs through the claims of these groups
and from samples taken at random
along 800 feet of one of the ledges assays
of $34, $2s, $7e, $lo6, $l2o and $3.50 were
secured. Such assays from the crop
pings are unusual for Goldfeld and in
dicate that other shippers will soon be
added to the list. The Brooklyn group
lies about IA miles east of the Black
Buttes and was bought by Frank Ish
from the locators. Seller, Richardson,
COckburn and Kasnes Mr.. Ish also
bought half interest in the Good Hope
and Good Hope Nos. AMI 2 from Kel-
ley, Wagner and associates. Scott jam
ieson and others own the other half.
With a man of Mr.. Ish's well-known
push it is safe to say that development
will prOceed vigorously.

he did not care for other people. All his
aim of life was TO crafty the lust of his
flesh, and he did not care for his own fam
lily even.
THE moral character OF an opium smoker
is very, very bad. for smokers in China have
been known TO proceed as far as TO COM
NIT that unutterable crime OF selling even
their own babies in order 10 get money for
opium. Moreover. most of them never think
about God, for they say that opium is bet
ter TO them than God.
LAS far as the educated Chinese are con-
cerned, they strictly object TO the opium
traffic. This is openly manifested by their
warnings TO their sons and by their hatred
of opium smokers. They have seen the eff
fects of opium upon the smokers, and they
occasionally curse those who trade in
opium. Many time have / heard them say
ing what a great sin these traders have
done to their felow-men.
But far the noneducated Chinese
are concerned, the traffic in opium seems
as proper TO them as any other traffic.
They say that opium does not harm them,
but serves instead to strengthen them.
have heard the smokers exclaim that they
could not work because they had not yet
had their smoke Besides, they say that
every rich man should not work, but should
smoke, and consequently they regard the
opium traffic as proper any other.
"At present the farming system tends 10
increase the consumption, for we learn that
the government takes severe measures TO
protect the bidder, and devise means so
that the bidder may be able to pay the
government the enormous sum OF money.
In 1896 two streets scarcely contained more
than two opium shops, but now one street,
such as North Bridge Road, contains more
than four opium shops.
THE only means that can be suggested
for the diScoura cement of the use of opium
is by sending good and learned men TO teach
the people, and impress upon their minds
the evil effects of opium, and to get them
TO understand the commandments of God.
This is one way whereby the discourage
ment can be made effective"

could be found for the product was wood

in the old days for making I've soap. The
Prussian mines are twenty-Seven in num-
Der, and we're devoted 10 the production OF

TO the world about forty years ago the
Prussan mines were temporarily aban-
doned and i'm few years a search for rock
salt was instituted. The salt was found.

an analysis OF the adulterant revealed the
fact that IL was the most valuab BILE part OF
the mineral. The potash was at once turned

1t is n village in Scotland just over the
English border, and long noted as a place
to which runaway couples from England
went to be married. It's reputation was
made when the English marriage laws re-
quired parental consent, publication of the

when in Scotland ALI necessary to a mar
riage that would be acknowledged anywhere

laws Of both countries have been so changed
that Gretna Green is no longer an especial
haven for clipping couples.

THE STATE ELECTION.

Notwithstanding that some Import
ant constitutional amendments were
before the people for their consldera-
tiou. it is estimated that not more than
thirty thousand votes were cast in
Georgia at the regular state election
on Wednesday. 1t will be several
DAYS, however, before the secretary OF
state completes the work of consoli'
dating the returns, and the exact num-
Der of votes polled will not be known
until then. The people were, OF course,
satisfied as to what the result OF the
election would be for the candidates,
and as this is very busy time OF the
year with them only few took the
trouble to go to the polls. They are
interested just now more in their bust
ness affairs than they are in politics.
The proposed constitutional amend
ment permitting local taxation for
school purposes received a large ad-
verse vote, and the indications are
that it was defeated. The other
amendments, limiting the state tax
rate to five mills and increasing the
number of counties to 145, were rati-
fed by large majorities.

MAYOR wooOwARD'S MEDICATION.

In the recent mayoralty contest IN
Atlanta former mayor James 9. Wood
ward gave the politicians and the ntil.
ity corporations OF that city who have
axes to grind genuine surprise by
defeating four popular and influential
citizens who were candidates against
him.
While mayor of. Atlanta some years
ago Mr.. Woodward may have COM
mitted some personal indiscretions
and was unfortunate in come respects,
hut nobody ever questioned his honesty
or his loyalty to his city aud people.
1t may also be said that he has long
been connected with the city govern
ment, and is thoroughly conversant
with public affairs. During the recent
meeting CT the legislature one of the
committees of the house was bonn bard
ed the whole of q summer afternoon
by the big wigs and the little wigs, the
local and legal lights which flicker
around the city. The question was
the extension of the limits and the
establishment of new wards. Those
who heard all of the speakers and city
politicians declared that Jim Wood
ward was the best posted man on local
affairs of the bunch. 1t is evident
that be is strong man in Atlanta and
that the people believe in his lnteg-
rity, have faith in his executive abili-
~ and confidence in his fidelity to the
best interests of TIE city.
Some of the men who were in the
race against him have been flying
higher than Woodward the printer
(hes an OLD printerl in society circles,
but, as the Albany Herald says, she
was perhaps the best man of the lot,
and the people of Atlanta made no
mistake in again electing him"
Many of the votes cast for him were
no doubt due TO the treatment he re-
ceived at the hands of certain parties
and newspapers during his former
administration, and his return TO the
mayors Office is further evidence that
the people will not stand for persecu-
iion OF their officials.

WOULD PUT THEM ON THE HELPLESS

General Barry, the epauletted north
-erner In charge Of the army headquar-
tiers located in Atlanta whose recent
recommendation that negroes be en-
listed for artillery service at the coast
stations in the south raised such q
storm of Indignation and protest, has
found it necessary TO make some sort
of EXPLANATION, the nature OF which Is
shown in the following extract from
an editorial in Sundays Constitution:
"It seems that the recommendation
made by General Barry for the enlist
enent of colored troops FOR coast artll'
lery service did not contemplate the
stationing of such troops at posts or
forts near southern cities. A
careful reading of the recommends
tion shows it has reference TO only
outlying and undesirable stations, and
it is said there was no thought IN his
mind of such posts as Savannah ano
Charleston and Others OF the important
coast cities. We felt sure that with
his knowledge of conditions prevailing
in the south General Barry could no
have meant what some OF the people IL
the large coast cities feared, ano WI
are glad to learn from high authorit!
that our understanding was the correc
one"
This explanation and statement
General Barry's real intentions ma!
be satisfactory to the Constitution
but we do not believe that IL will 81
to the people. They seriously oblec
to the menace of negro troops any
where In the soubh.
We respectfully submit, also, that
the south is to be afflicted with Negro
troops they should by all means be sta
toned near the big cities. the center
of population, and not amoog the PEG
pie of small and unprotected commuul
ties. The Constitution, If IL would
help to protect those who really neet
it, will not cease its opposition to the
recommendation of this army officer.
