BUENA VISTA
Mines Are All Showing Up Well with
Development and Large Bodies of
Milling Grade Ores Are
Blocked Out

Buena Vista, New. March 22.-This
section is on the eve of a mining boom
which promises to fill the hills with
prospectors as soon as the snow dis
appears. Already the south slopes are
bare and hardly a day passes which does
not record the discovery of new lodges
and the extension of the recognized min
eral bearing zone. Prospectors are ar
irving in ever increasing numbers and
the towns of Buena Vista and Goldhitt
are filing up with miners and their pack
outfits. Mining men of means are also
coming in and are open for the pur-
chase Of any favorable mining PROPOSE
ton. A party of Los Angeles capital
lists is now here for the purpose of in.
vestigating the possibilities of the camp
and the ~advisability of erecting a mill
for the treatment of ores
The tunnel on the Brownie claim is in
a distance of 40 feet and has pierced
a 22-foot lead which by actual mill tests
is known to nave a general gold aver
age of $50 per ton. Il new tunnel has
been started on the properly with the
view of tapping the same vein within
$50 feet of drifting. The Brownie IS
one of the first discoveries in the camp
and it's owners recently refused an offer
of 100000 for a controlling interest.
On the Ticker claims work is pro-
crossing favorably aid several large
sized ore bodies are being developed.
Leases on the estate are ir demand and
a number of blocks are to be rented very
shortly.
The big ledge which passes across the
entire Buena Vista country has been
opened on the Two Lilies, My, Emma
M. and Pinto claims and in each in
stance satisfactory values are secured.
Many other prospects are likewise being
worked with good res lits.
Preparations for extensive work are
being made at the Buena Vista prop
erty and as soon as TIE sn1v disappears
d evelopment is to be taken up on an ex
tensive scale. Sevaru tenders for the
purchase of the acreage a been re-
fused. This claim was among the first
locations made in the camp and is con-
sidered one of the best mining prop
critics in this section as its mineral
bearing possibilities are second to none.

GOLDEN SCEPTRE.-The big ledge

Beer Is a
Temperance Drink
Statistics Will Show That Its Increas-
ing Sales Bring a Corresponding
Decrease in Drunkenness.

To show the effect of beer drinking
on the health, Dr. p. Bauer, of Berlin,
distinguished German scientist and
professor, makes report on the health
of the Is employees of a German brew
cry. This report is of especial interest
lust at this time because of the in
creasing popularity of beer in the Unit
ed States, as shown by the recent
report of the commissioner of Internal
revenue that during the past year the
people of the United States drank 16O,-
100000 more gallons OF beer than DUR
ing amy other year in the history OF
the nation, and there is less intemper-
ance than ever before.
In speaking of the results of his in
vestigation, DR.. Bauer says:
"Of the seventy-five employees, each
of whom drinks over a gallon of beer
daily, Sc have stood the rigid physical
examination for enrolment in the Ger
man army and are soldiers; of the re-
naming eighteen, eleven are minors,
three were found too small in stature
and four were rejected for defects suf-
fered by accident"
Leading physicians have said there
is no doubt whatever of the healthful-
ness of good beer, and most of them
recommend Pabst Blue Ribbon. Bar
ley malt the soul of beer, gives it GER
tain food value, and the small percent
age of alcohol, only 319 per cent in
Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer, is an aid to
digestion.
In the brewing of beer, the richer
the malt the more wholesome the beer
Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer is brewed only
from Pabst exclusive eight-day malt
choicest imported hops and pure water
Pabst exclusive eight-day malt is
grown from finest selected barley and
grown slowly, without any rushed de-
velopment, so that the malt retains all
the food elements of the grain in pre-
digested form This is what makes
Pabst Beer the superior of all beers in
food strength. 1t is always absolutely
pure and clean, the most refreshing
and nourishing beverage, the best beer
for the home.

Des Moines, Sept. 1.-THE weather
and crop bulletin issued for the week
ending Saptembr 10 is as follows: \
Abnorraally high temperatures were
registered at all stations during the
latter part of the week ending on the
morning of the 10th. AT the central
station the average daily excess was
6.3 degrees, which was about the aver>
age excess in the central and western
districts. Light local showers were re-
ported at Grinnell, Dubuque and Keo-
sauqua but in the larger part of the
state the week was practically rainless.
The corr crop has made very rapid adj
vancement toward maturity, and re-
ports indicate that more than half the
crop is now in fit condition to be cut
and put in shock or silo. This work is
now in progress on the best class of
farms, where the fodder is utilized.
With a continuance of these favorable
conditions the bulk of the corn crop
will be practically safe Dy The 25th;

are needed to facilitate fall blowing

of the potato crop, on account of local
differences in the amount of rainfall in

way Strike.
Chicago, Sept 11-A serious labor
situation, affecting the entire Burling-
ton system developed last night, fol-
lowing the adoption of new rule by
the company. The regulation which
affects engineers, establishes a stand
ard for eyesight Men obliged to wear
glasses by the provision of the new
rule are reduced in rank and assigned
to unimportant and unremunerative
runs. The reduction applies to all
engineers, regardless of length of
service for the company.
The effect of the order is so sweep
ing that Grand Chief Stone. of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
last night telegraphed James j. Hill
at st. Paul, requesting an immediate
conference. A protest by engineers has
already been filed, but has not receiv-
ed favorable consideration. The con-
ference lasting two weeks in this city,
has also failed to bring about an adj
justment
Engineers of the entire system took
vote on an acceptance or rejection
of the new rule and it is said the re-
turns already in the hands of the grand
officers OF the brotherhood show an
overwhelming majority in favor of
taking extreme measures to oppose the
companies orders.
According to the rules of the broth
erhood the vote in favor of the re-
lection to the new rule places the mat
ter absolutely in the hands of the

cred to call strike without further
action. With a hope of preventing a

Representative Hog Sales.
Below are given a few Of the repre-.
sentative hog sales:
Suckers and Feeders

Chicago, Sept. 11.-Initial trading
for the week was on quite satisfact-
Dry basis, as viewed by the sellers.
Steady to strong figures were paid for
bulk of the arrivals and fsome sales
of good steers were considered a shade
higher than last week. Chief demand
came from the yard dealers, but they
purchased rather freely most of the
day, having carried over only rather
small supply from last week. The
traders were in anticipation of liberal
country demand later this week and
seemed DESTROYS of getting pretty
good volume of steers. They were par
tial to the better bred stock, but plain
cattle moved in moderate season, even
the light stockers selling fairly WE'LL
and generally on a steady basis. There
was slim buying by the outsiders dur
ing first hours, altho later in the day
the lockers were more plentiful in the
feeder alleys and fair volume of stock
was taken back to the country.
