Dislocated Her Shoulder.

Mrs. Johanna Soderholm, of Fergus Falls, Minn., fell and dis located her shoulder. She had a surgeon get it back in place as soon as possible, but it was quite sore and pained her very much. Her son mentioned that he had seen Chamberlain's Pain Balm advertis- ed for sprains and soreness, and she asked him to buy her a bottle of it., which he did. It quickly relieved her and enabled her to sleep which she had not done for several days. The son was so much pleased with the relief it gave his mother that he has since recommended it to many others. For sale by The c. A. Cover Drug Co.

The Great Copper Queen.

If the existing reputation of the
 Copper Queen as a magnificent pro-
 ducer is to be excelled in Arizona,
 it is quite evident that she will
 have to make the new record her
 self. The old smelter in it's last
 days seems to be turning out the
 red metal in greater abundance
 than ever before, while the mighty
 preparations for breaking and re-
 ducing ore, would indicate infalllbly
 that the big Copper Queen is still in short dresses. Aside, from the heavy surface improvement at the Spray and Holbrook, and the com pletion of the new compartment in the Holbrook shaft, the most inn portant work consists in blocking out ore for the mammoth smelter and connecting the different pro- ducing properties by drifts. The Queen people are not assembling that mighty forest of steel and brick and tufa at Douglas for blind. They are preparing to turn out copper and Bisbee will have to turn in most of the ore. Much greater work is in progress at the Lowell and Gard ner than the public is aware of. The recent report that the new hoist would be placed on the Gard ner would seem to be fully justi- fled by appearances, and drifting has made such progress that, with permission of the management one may soon take an underground buggy ride in the near future, from the Czar to the Lowell, subject to tLe necessity of shifting from one level to another on the interest ing trip.
 From existing indications, the great Queen system is strictly in ] the race for "more ground" and is looking after that detail with the calm and comfortable reflection that it is time enough to open up all of their undeveloped properties after they have gathered in ak the available ground in sight. The company's new smelter at Douglas is nearing completion, yet on the principle that great bodies move

 Upon the advent of a railroad in- to Florence the Blade observes ac- companying novelties and makes promises. It says: "A chain-gang in Florence is novelty, but has become a necessity. The approach of the railroad has brought an in- Aux of hoboes and the only means of ridding the community of such an evil is either chain gang or a vigilance committee. The chain gang will be tried first and if it does not prove efficacious in relieving us from the presence of professional hoboes and thieves a vigilance com mittee will be organized and new graveyard started.
 The farmers of the Yuma valley are taking measures to establish an agency in Los Angeles for the pur- pose of securing more advantageous marketing of their hay crop.

There are about 5000 tons of hay in tht Yuma valley, and though the farm ars are selling at SIP per ton a Yuma, it is believed they can real ize more by shipping to southern California markets.
