tits easy to start a company on the
road, but the hardest part is bringing it,
back" was remarked by j. j. Holland,
business manager Of Richards & Prin
gle's Famous Georgia Minstrels, while
he was at the Kleemann hotel, "and l
mean just what I say. Any person with
money can find Sharks" enough to help
him organize and start out q show, but
the hardest part is the booking and
handling of the Trick" when it is out,
and keep it going the entire season, and
bring it back again"

August Fisher is painting and other
wise improving the residence premises
which he recently purchased from Mrs.
ID. w. McFadden in the southern part
of town. We hope the spirit ofimprove-
ment will spread throughout the city
this spring. Many properties need re-
pairing. Many which are otherwise all
right would be greatly beautifed and
preserved by a new coat Of paint. 1t
speaks well for a town to keep all of its
carpenters, painters and paper hangers
busy.

Good Spirits.

Good spirits don't all come from Ken
lucky. Their main source is the liver
and all the fine spirits ave. made in the
Blue Grass State could not remedy a bad
liver or the hundred-and one i'll effects it
produces. You can't have good spirits
and a bad liver at the same time. Your
liver must be in fine condition If you
would feel %buoyant, happy and hopeful,
bright of eye, light of step, vigorous and
successful in your pursuits. You can put
your liver in fine condition by using
Green's August Flower-the greatest Of
all medicines for the liver and stomach
and a certain cure for dyspepsia or indi-
gestion. 1t has been a favorite house.
hold remedy for yer thirty-fve years.
August Flower will make your liver
healthy and active and thus insure you
a liberal supply of "good spirits" Trial

Owners Of the linn Lease on
the Jumbo Divide $4,000.

NhC ObAAtlOO OhtiNC pAOSOOOs
The first dividend to be paid out of
mining operations has been declared
by the Ogden Goldfeld mining com
pany having a capital of So, 600 in 100
shares of $50 each and composed of
well known residents Of Ogden who
own what is locally designated as the
Zinn lease on the south end of the
Jumbo vein. This lease has produced
some remarkably rich ore and the
dividend paid last week amounted to
500 per share or SO, 900 in all. The
lease expires in April next and
twenty-five men are now employed
extracting shipping ore, six ship
ments of which have been made since
work was commenced on the lease,
the last one netting 1886. Prior to
this fifty-four tons we're shipped to
Selby's and Melted over $500 per
ton. The shipment Of 399 tons which
left Tonopah on the 4th inst is said
to have realized $37, 600 or nearly
1850 per ton, and as 30 tons have
been shipped since it is probable that
