 COCHISE COUNTY.
 Two diamond drills are at work in the ore body of the Sunnyside mine near Douglas. The report given out by the directors meeting held at the beginning of the present month, re- garding the fine ore body now being worked is very encouraging. Further than this report, which told of thirty feet of ten per cent copper ore being cut, there is an abundance of good ore ill the stopes yet to be worked.
 Much activity prevails at the Oliver mine and shaft and every available place for a man to work is being fill ed. The new railroad spur to the mine will be completed by the end of the ensuing week Upon it's completion materials from the main line will be unloaded immediately at the shaft Four marine boilers of 2SO horsepower each are now installed at the mine.

of good claims in the district. one of which was producer of pay ore number of years ago, who are now en- gagged in the work of development with better prospects than ever before. The shaft on this latest work and deveI- opment is showing a large body of high grade sulphide ore. The Lilian another claim ia the group belonging to Messrs. Blake and Harvey, is a fine prospect, and large body of rich orc has been opened up in the bottom of the shaft Assays of the ores taken from the bottom of the present work in the Lillian gave returns of fifty per cent copper and 125 ounces silver On account of the very liberal bi-pro- duct of black manganese in the ores, together with their fine milling quail ties the ores are much sought for by smelter men.
 The Copper Bell is the name of an other group of claims on "The Strip" which is bonded to James E. Carpen- ter and M. M. Dodge. The company is now running a tunnel on one of the claims and is into the mountain about 125 feet and has broken into vein of good ore
 The Michigan and Arizona Mining company, in Bunker Hill district, is in the midst of great prosperity in the development of their mines. They are in the center of a big body of copper carbonates and every third bucketful hoisted to the dump is of a shipping grade, and the dump is being piled high with ores carrying pay values. As soon as sufficient ore is taken out and ground opened to justify a long run, plant will be installed to re- duce the ores to nigh grade shipping values. The Santa Fe railroad, now building up the San Pedro river will come within very few miles of Bun ker Hill district, which will give the Michigan and Arizona company excel lent shipping facilities. Several i'm portant mining sales are pending in the district and eastern men are talk ing much interest in the fine show ings of ore already made.

CATARRH K TINIINEDSAI DISEASE

A UNIVERSAL DISEASE Catarrh usually begins with cold in the head, but does not stop there. The mucous membranes all become infamed and secrete a filthy, unhealthy matter which is absorbed by the blood and dis tributed to all parts of the body. The patient Is then continually hawking and splitting, the nose Is stopped up, the ears have a ringing or buzZ1ng noise, the throat becomes sore, and as the u11- healthy matter more thoroughly satu- rates the blood general feeling of des- poudency takes possession of the system. Ihad Catarrh for about fifteen years, and no man eouId g hSXe be9 eegn o %GT p5f no good resulted. then began s. $: s., and could see little improvement rom the first bottle, and after taking Ii. a short while was cured. This was six years ago, and lam as well today as any man. I think Catarrh is a blood dis ease, and know there is nothing on earth better for the blood than s. s. s, No body thinks more of $. $: B. than do. Lapeer, Mich. M. mAESON.
 Local applications cannot cure Catarrh, because they do not reach the seat of the trouble. They al1ay the inflammation and temporarily relieve the disease, but as soon as they are left off the trouble re- turns. The only way to cure Catarrh Is to treat it through theblood. s. s. s. soon clears the blood of all Catarrhal matter and purges it of all irritating poisons, checks further progress of the trouble and com- Pletely cures the disease. $. $. $. keeps

The article published in the

Friday issue Of July 81, that agents
were travelling Oklahoma and

farmers for groceries and contract

grafters that explored the east part
Of Comanche county in May last,
taking orders for spices and
groceries for The New York Spice
& Coffee co. The salesman who
came through here advocated to
the farmers that the company was
then building a cold storage house
in Oklahoma City ard that
it would be ready by July Ist TO
store the farmers eggs and butter
and as the company had just
closed a twenty-year contract with
a large mining company in Mexico

NO STRINGS ON THEM
Members Of the Farmers Union will Buy
where they Please

Some time ago the Farmers
unions west of town asked mer-
chants to submit propositions TO
them to supply them with goods at
the lowest prices, the idea being to
throw all the trade Of the unions
to the firms making the best pro
position. A maximum profit was
to be named in proposition. Sew
eral Chickasha merchants sent re-
plies to the union showing the
impracticability and the disadvant-
ages of such a scheme.
The Banner Union held a long
session last week and discussed the
proposition pro and con. AT the
close Of the discussion, it was wise
ly decided to make no contracts
with merchants but to allow each
member to purchase from whom he
chose, making the best bargains
possible. The disposition of the
other unions seem to be to pursue
the same course. A movement is
on foot to organize district rnion
among the various locals west and
and southwest of town.
