Prospecting In the coeopahs
TlDe CaleHicO Chronicle says:


 "Only small part of the Cocopah range has hcen prOspectcd and that in a superficial way, called ly miners "lelcgrapLing. But the surface indi. cations arc SO plain and positive to the experienced eye that prOspcct1rs gener- ally are of the opinion that many lcdgrs will be discovered that will develop into big paying mines Where tli,r. iz so much rich placer ground it Is reasonable to suppose that the gold that has been panned out and produced by dry wash ors. must have come from rich lcdgcH. Until recently no quartz mining has becil attempted, aud the iirst ledge that has been sunk on proves to bc rich vein that shows no signs oi "pinching." Further south in this same mineral belt the rich mines at Alamo are located as well as the big Rosa Lee copper mine, owned by FrrncIi syndicate, that has at one time employed 5000 men aud still employs a large force of miners.
 Thursday morning Eugene Daniels left Calexico with a six.horrc load Of supplies for the mines in the Picacho district of the Cocopah range. Fred Willard went along to assist NIT. Daniels who is one of the owners in rich group of mines there. J. A. Estudillo and Chas. Walters, owners m this group, left for the camp tn the evening tn q light rig. Mir. Walters is the original locatcr of th. claims, and he feels cond- dent, judging from the present indicat- ions. that they will develop into rich mines. With a ix-foot ledge and high grade ore at depth of sixty feet the prospects arc certainly very encourag- ing. He stated that there were a num- Der of American and Mexican miners prospecting in that Deighborhood.
 W. M. McKim, an old Arizona pros pcctor. who has been in Imperial a short time trying to sell number of horses and mules, was in Calexico few days ago with span. of hnc mules to rell. He says he intends to get good prospecting outfit and prospect the Coco pahs this fall
 F. Barnes X Co. intend to set up q cabinet tn their store which will be used for displaying specimens of the various minerals and gems ulat are found in tie ncighborhood of Calexico.

Taken With Cramps

Wm. Kirmes, a member of the bridge gang working near Littleport was taken suddenly i'll Thursday night with cramps and kind of cholera. His case was SO severe that he had to have the members of the crew wait upon him and Mr. Clifford was called and con- suited. He told them he had a medi- cine in the form of Chamberlain's Collie Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy that he thought would help him out and accord ingly several doees were administered with the result that the fellow was able to be around next day. The incident speaks quite highly of Mir. Gifford's medicines. Iowa, Argus.
