Notwithstanding the fact that the
method pursued now days il TO stock
ns much ore underground as possible
SO as TO avoid the hoisting and load
ing charge The preparing Of such
large stocking ground means that
there il going 70 b. larger stockpiles
this winter than ever.
Work was commenced on the Tobin

and set at work grading in the vicinity
Of the Tohin shaft The Hennipen

on the east side, between the shaft and
the office The new grounds will oc-
cupy the level spot where the boarding
house stood and the intervening space
between that building and the Office.

POTATO CROP SLIM
Tubers are Rotting in the Ground all Over
Peninsula

The potato crop will be a slim one
in and about Crystal Falls this year.
Owing TO the very wet weather Of the
summer and early fall the potatoes are
rotting by the bushels all over the
peninsula and Crystal Falls farmers
tell Ms that there will be less than
half crop IN this vicinity
Government statistics tell us that the
crop Of the country as a whole is but
little below the averge. II seems that
in other parts Of the country the crop
il better than in former years 50 tnat
the price of potatoes will remain about
the same as last year.

Vegetable Compound

The wonderful power of Lydia E.
! Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
| the diseases of womankind is not be-
cause IL is stimulant, not because II
| is palliative, but simply because 1t is
the most wonderful tonic and recon
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the generative organs, positively
curing disease and restoring health and
vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures and physicians
, who have recognized the virtue of
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due.
II physicians dared to be frank and
open, hundreds of, f,themwoulda acknowl-
edge that they constantly prescribe
Lydia L. Pinkham's Vegetable Conn
pound in severe cases of female ills, as
they know by experience it can be re-
lied upon to effect cure. The follow
ing letter proves it.
DIR. s. G. Brigham, of Brigham
Park, Fitchburg, Mass, writes
at gives me great pleasure 10 say that
have found Lydia T.. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound very efflcacious, and often pre-
scribe it in my practice for female difficulties.
"My oldest daughter found il very benefi-
cial for uterine trouble some time ago, and my
youngest daughter is now taking Il for a fe-
male weakness, and is surely gaining in health
and strength.
~ freely advocate Il as a most reliable spe-
cihc in all diseases TO which women are sub
ject, and give it honest endorsement"
Women who are troubled with pain

Tor flatulence) leucorrhea, falling, in
flammation or liberation of the uterus.
ovarian troubles, that bearing-down
feeling, dizziness, faintness, indiges-
ton, nervous prostration or the blues,
should take immediate action TO ward
off the serious consequences, and be
restored TO perfect health and strength
by taking Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound, and then write TO Mrs.
Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass, for further
free advice. No living person has had
the benefit of a wider experience in
treating female ills. She has guided
thousands TO health. Every suffering
woman should ask for and follow her
advice il she wants to be strong and
we'll.

A DESERT PILGRIMAGE:
Will Be Undertaken by a Bunch of
 20th Century Pathfinders.

M. V. Lenane, E. E. Wann and two or three other gentlemen whose names could not be guessed at with reasonable accuracy, left this morning on an over land pilgrimage to Nevada They are equipped for a journey of adventure and are prepared for most anything that may happen. They expect to get back some time during the summer or the early fall but if they don't happen to, they will make the best of it as did Moses and his following in a former historical trip which was delayed be- yond the schedule time.
 They leave here with a six mule team and a caravan of sixteen burros and all appurtenances thereunto be- longing. How much of a train they will have g month from now, like all other events incident to human life. will depend on circumstances. If the live stock along the way proves too tempting or it's owners too careless there may be accretions. On the other hand if the mama crop proves too scarce in the desert this year they may have to kill few mules for table purposes. They have hopes of adding to their pack train a few of the phan- tom came,s that have been haunting the western plains for the last gener- ation, according to the reliable records furnished in various Sunday YelIows-
 The above information is largely by deduction, after the manner of Sher- lock Holmes, a method of newsgather- ing thct las proved a boon to most modern news purveyors, when the prin- cipals refuse to talk and it is found necessary. to say something.
 MT. Lenane was seen yesterday and said that he did not know yet just when he would start. Asked concerning the purposes of his journey he seemed to have no clearer idea of it than did the
