MT. Sharpneck has been working on this proposition for some time and now has succeeded in making the deal for the above named parties. A company will be organized at once and the prop erty actively developed. Mir. Sharpneck says the Homestake is a good money making property. He has been working the ore at his mill for several months and ought to have a good idea of it.-Prescott Journal-Miner, Feb. 6.

"I have been for years an oe- easional traveller, east and west, on the Limited train of the Santa Fe system, and it gives me pleasure to bear voluntary testimony to the excellence, the efficiency and comfort of the train service, and to the unvary- ing excellence of the dining service, both aboard the trains and at the various stations along the line. Even at desert eating stations I have found the food and table service en- tirely satisfactory and far above the average"

Tendency of the Times.

The tendency of medical science
 IS toward preventative measures.
 The best thought of the world is be-
 ing given to the subject. It is
 easier and better to prevent than
 to cure. It has been fully demon
 strated that pneumonia, one of the
 most dangerous diseases that medi- cal men have to contend with, can
 be prevented by the use of Chamb- erlain's Cough Remedy. Pm u- monia always results from cold or from an attack of influenza (grip) and it has been observed that this remedy counteracts any tendency of these diseases toward pneumonia. This has been fully proven in many thousands of cases in which this remedy has been used during the great prevalence of colds and grip in recent years, and can be relied upon wi tn implicit confidence. Pneumonia often results from a slight cold when no danger is appre- hended until it is suddenly dis covered that there is fever and difficulty in breathing and pains in the chest, then it is announced that the patient has pneumonia. Be on the safe side and take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as soon as the cold s contracted. It always cures. For sale by The c. A. Cover Drug Company,

OLD STORY REVIVED
Rock isiand-Santa Fe Traffic AL
 tjance Again on Board.

The report that the Chicago X
 Rock Island railroad had formed traffic alliance with the Santa Fe road reached El Paso and is the subject of much converse tion among railroad men of the city, says the El Paso Times.
 1t was known some months ago that prominent Rock Island peo- pie were buying Santa Fe stock, but the purport of this proceeding was not at once manifest. Hold CTS of Rock Island stock bought up $40, ,O0O, 900 of Santa Fe stock, with view of gaining representation on the directorate of the Santa Fe road.
 In this they were not successful, as was shown by the resulst of the annual meeting of the Santa Fe stockholders in December, as no Rock Island stockholder was made a director. But the influence of the Rock Island purchase of stock was made evident afterward.
 While the $4O,OGO,OOO of stock nowin the hands of the Rock Island people is by no means a controlling proportion of the $24O,OOO,OOO that make up the stock of the Santa Fe, it is considerable and it's owners have, it is believed, received consid- eration to the extent of a traffic agreement which will be of mutual benefit to the roads concerned.
 The plan as now outlined, is to complete immediately the "Belen cut-off," as the Santa Fe's New Mexico undertaking is called, to the point of its intersection with the Rock Islands Amarilla- -El Paso line, and later to build it on to its junction with the Santa Fe's Pecos river line at Portales, as originally intended.
 After the line has been built to the Rock Island junction the ar rangement will be to run the Rock Island trains directly west over the Santa Fe tracks to Belen and on west along the Santa Fe Route.
 This will give the Rock Island a more direct line west than is now had by way of Ell Paso. It is said, too, that the Rock Islands arrang- ment with the Southern Pacific road is not at all satisfactory to the Rock Island, and the advantage to the Santa Fe road will be in the traffic brought down from the great north west, where the Santa Fe has no direct fetders.
 On completion of the Belen cut off to Portales the Santa Fe will have direct through route from Chicago, with the heavy grades at Baton and Glorieta entirely avoid d. The heavy freight traffic will Ill go over this line.
 Work on the Belen cutoff, which vas stopped six weeks ago affecting stockholders, will be re- umed at once, it is said, and the oad will be done before the Rock sland road is reached.
 There is also bad canyon to be and great deal of heavy vork is involved, but with the pro- osed double force at work, it is be- : eyed that the junction can be { by next fall and that Rock sland trains will be running west ard over the Santa Fe before next - hristmaS.

 It is reported that the little mar row gauge railroad between Needles and the Leland mines of Mohave county, Arizona, received from passenger and freight traffic during the month of December over $1 800, exclusive of the freight and ore haulage of the Mohave Gold Min ing company. The company has equipped the road lately with new engine and will be able to carry all freight and passengers that may be offered.
 A terrible tragedy occurred in the Union Pass country, near King man, last week, resulting in the killing of one man and the serious wounding of another. The trouble arose from dispute over mining property and was a three-sided affair between T. w. Smith, Henry Long and William Welbourn, the latter of whom died. It is said the three men engaged in a struggle which ended only when they be- came too exhausted to continue.
 The prospector, the newspaper and the promoter are the leading factors in the up-building of min ing district. The prospector makes the discovery, the newspaper ad- vertises his find to the world, and the promoter interests capital to develop the property. They are all essential in their various spheres, and without them the country would remain unproduct- we. Of the three the promoter comes in for the most abuse, and as general thing it is undeserved a The promoter, like the prospector, s an enthusiast, and it is we'll that le is, for no man can talk up an nterprise in which he lacks faith.
