AUSTRALIAN MINING LAWS

Some interesting facts about the mining laws in Australia are given to the Fairbanks News by J. D. Fields upon request of that paper. MT. Fields has also worked under the Chinese and Spanish mining laws.
 In Australia, he said, a mining h. cense is issued upon application, at a cost of Sl per annum, which entities the holder to the following: First, to take anywhere on the public domain 250 by 46O feet of ground for mining purposes, and quarter acre for resi- hence purposes. For relocating aban- doned mining ground he may take l8OO by 1900,
 Any person discovering diggings which will keep 400 men at work, con tinuously for four years is entitled to a bonus of G25,OOO to be paid by the government. No discovery of mineral is necessary; but while miner is prospecting a piece of ground he must fly white flag to give notice of his in- tentions. If he is carrying on actual mining operations Con payj he must fly a red flag.
 After stalking the 25O by 400 feet al- ready allowed. him under his license, he can then take up any number of acres that he sees fit, providing he pays &1 per year for each and every acre he so takes up into the treasury of the government, and providing fur ther that he employs one man at the going wages of the district for each acre during the mining season.
 There is no jumping of ground in Australia. Whenever the locator leaves the ground it is abandoned. For each mining district is appointed a warden who holds court every morning, and from whom there is no appeal. His duty is to settle all disputes and grant permission, when proper cause is shown, to lease the ground in possess ion of any one. This permit must be spread upon the records before it be- comes effective.

THE GRIP

"Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered our selves" No one can realize the suffer- ing attendant upon an attack of the grip, unless he has had the actual ex- perience. There is probably no disease that causes so much physical and men, tai agony, or which so successfully de- fies medical aid. All danger from the grip, however, may be avoided by the prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Among the tens ofthousands who have used this remedy, not one case has ever been reported that has resulted in pneumonia or that has not recovered. For sale by J. Heubner.
