Zinc Mines Shut Down.

A Galena dispatch says: cat a re-
cent meeting held by several of the
large mine operators of the Missouri
Kansas district, a shutdown of the ma
jority of the big zinc mines of the dis
trict was agreed upon. The producers
announce that the shutdown will be
for an indefinite period, as a remedy
for strengthening the price of ore.
The sui lphur ore in the district is esti-
mated at 1900 tons and is sufficient
the producers say to enable the buyers
to keep the price down.
One hundred mining companies and
close to 1000 miners are affected. In
the Missouri-Kansas zinc ore market
the buyers were unsuccessful in fore
ing any reduction as has been their
custom the last few weeks. The high
est price reported as having been paid
was 49S for the output of the Bundle
Bee mine, representing a basis price
of 1853 for go per cent ore. In nearly
every sale reported the price was un-
changed. The shutdown took effect
March 3lst.

About three miles east of town, in
the neighborhood of Summit Springs,
a strike of gigantic proportions has
just been made by c. A. Caughman,
F. J. Flanagan and ]. H. Connors. 1t
is an immense mineralized vein, trace
able for a mile or more and having a
width of anywhere from go to 400 feet.
Little or no work has been done as yet
and values are not known, but it is
safe to predict that it will run we'll in
copper, for besides the stain there is
heavy oxidization. In an air line the
scene of the strike is about mile and
a half due east of the Quartette, and
the formation is identical with that in
which this famous property lies. The
walls, which are well defined, are of
porphyry, and the vein filling is a de-
composed quartz-porphyry, with some
solid quartz. The whole vein is COW
cred with a Gaping of few inches in
thickness.-The Searchlight.

Good Spirits.

Good spirits don't all come from
Kentucky. Their main source is the
liver-and all the fine spirits ever
made in the Blue Grass state could not
remedy 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
a fine condition if you would feel buoy
ant, happy and hopeful, bright of eye,
light of step, vigorous and successful
in your pursuits. You can put yol r
liver in fine condition by using Green's
August Flower-the greatest of all
medicines for the liver and stomach
and certain cure for dyspepsia or in
digestion. II has been a favorite
household remedy for over thirty-five
years. August Flower will make your
liver healthy and active and thus in
sure you a liberal supply of good spir-

At depth Of over 600 feet the Te-
chaticup shaft at Eldorado Canyon has
ore which will assay six ounces in gold
to the ton. The ore is base, but will
concentrate about ten to one, so that
it can be easily and prottably handled.
In addition to the gold values the ore
will run $50 ounces in silver. Incred-
ulous as it may sound, seven feet of
this magnificent ore have already been
exposed, and as yet neither wall is in
sight. The strike is of the greatest
import to the Canyon, for it disproves
once and for all the oft repeated aSser-
tion that the values do not go down.
The Techaticup is the deepest shaft in
the district, and it has not only had
good values from the surface, but like
wise they have shown a constant i'm
provement as depth was gained.-The
