Do You Want to Know
 What You Swallow ?

There is growing sentiment in this country in favor of MEDICINES OF KNOWN COMPOSITION. IL is but natural that one should have some interest in the compo- sition of that which he or she is expected to swallow, whether it oe food, drink or medicine.
 Recognizing this growing disposition on the part of the public, and satisfied that the fullest publicity can only add to the well-earned reputation Of his medi- cines, Dr. k. Y. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., has taken time by the forelock," as it were. and is publishing broadcast a list of all the ingredients entering into his leading medicines. the rGolden Medical stomach tonic, blood purifier and heart regulator; also Of his rFavorite Prescrip- tion- for weak. over worked, broken. down. nervous and invalid women
 This bold and out-spoken movement on the part Of Dr. Pierce, has, by showing exactly what his well-known medicines are composed of completely disarned all harpiny critics who have heretof' un- justly attacked them. A little pa-- ,,hlet has been compiled. from the standard medical authorities of all the several schools Of practice. showing the strongest endorsements by leading medical writers of the several ingredients which enter into Dr. Pierce's medicines. A copy Of this little book is mailed free to any one de- string to learn more concerning the valu- able, native. medicinal plants which enter into the composition of Dr. Pierce's med jcines.

LOWER MAMMOTH
ORDERS HOIST
Operating Shaft at Mine to Be
Equipped With Electric Ma
chinery of Large Capacity.
LITTLE BELL CUTS ORE
HElNZE PULLS OUT FOR BUTTE
AND SAYS NOTHING.

Fred c. Richmond yesterday landed the
contract to supply the Lower Mammoth
Mining company with a 100-horsepower,
double drum electric hosting engine and
equipment for the working shaft at that
property. Each drum on this mammoth
engine VIII be operated separately by Its
own 50-horsepower motor. so that one or
both sides may be handled at the same
time or not, just as requirements demand.
This will be the largest and most COM
plete electric hosting plant in the state
and il really marks q new departure in
the economy of mining in Utah camps.
Other states have adopted this system of
mining through vertical shafts and in
clines and in a modest way it has been
in vogue here for several years.
With this plant installed the fuel prob
lem will not bother the Lower Mammoth
much, as the energy to operate it Will
come from some OF the great power
companies that are now or may hereafter
be equipped to supply unlimited power in
the cities, towns and mining camps of the
state.
The special meeting of the sharehold-
ers of the Lower Mammoth company, at
which the question of Increasing the cap
ital stock VII be considered, Is sched-
uled for Friday next. 1t was TO have
been held last month, but a mistake was
made in fixing the date and the meeting
had to be re-adVertiSed. Some opposition
TO the scheme of increasing the stock and
providing the means of carrying out the
present plan of development and equip
ment, as well as freeing the company of
debt has developed. but ii is not expected
that the matter will or can be pushed 10
the extent of defeating the proposition
1t will either have TO carry or the stock
holders will have to stand for some pref
" stiff assessments, as lots of money,
possibly $4,000 will be needed.

Mininu Notes.

Manager Lafayette Hanchett of the
Newhouse interests. left for the Cactus
properties on Thursday night
a message to Pollock & Co yesterday
from Boston gave the total visible sup
ply of copper in London at the close Of
October at 1890 tons.
Three cars of ore from Alta two from
Stockton. two from Nevada and one from
Idaho were reported at the Pioneer sam
pier yesterday morning
President Williams of the Shawmut and
the Boston & Ely companies passed

There was released from the Taylor &
Brunton sampler yesterday thirteen car
loads of ore from Tintic. one from Colo
RADIO and one from Nevada.
Colonel F. A. Wall left Washington
Wednesday night and, unless he stays
ne will reach home early i'm the coming
week.
Advices from San Francisco over the
Pollock private wires are to the effect
that Frances Mohawk has declared a div
idend of 10 cents a share. 1t was made
payable Nov. 15 and books will close
against the transfer of stock on the 10th.
Some rich tellurium ore has just been
brought UP from the Stateline district
and there is likely to be something doing
with the property from which il came
just as soon as the parties who are inves-
tigating the discovery have had time TO
reach d conclusion as to what they want
TO do with a proposition that has been
put up to them.
The East Butte company is now treat
ing 80 tons of ore daily at its new mill.
and the first shipment to the concentration
was made yesterday. The company is
now figuring on building a Smeiter. as

Humboldt Star.-W. ]. Sterling came in
Sunday with Captain A. .. Girards six
horse team from Bernice loaded with an
timony ore which will be shipped as soon
as a sufficient quantity is brought in TO
make a carload. Five tons were brought
in this trip. The ore carries a high per
centage of anthony and il is the inten-
ton of the owners of the Bernice mines
to make regular shipments from this
place.
Reno Notwithstanding to Captain a.
II. Mayne. manager of the Ramsay-COm-
stock Mining company, which is operating
upon the immense Clark dyke at Ramsay
the company has a bonanza. The vein
in which the big discovery made few
DAYS ago was found has been cut from
wall TO wall and its width is 81 feet. In
the south drift values running as high as
5000 have. been found in Quantity and in
the north drift they run much higher
The drift is being run on the 62-foot level
The owners of the company are so en-
ouraged over the big values encountered
that they viii prosecute development upon
a bic scale.

NEW SAMPLING MILL.
Equipment and Machinery for One at
Hazen Is Purchased Here.

Ground has been broken. sde-tracks
have been put in, or are going in. and
material is now being delivered at Hazen
New for the erection of a large new ore
sampling mill. L. B. Smith. the metal
lurgicai engineer, who was formerly with
the chairman company at Ely. is the
man behind the undertaking and he stat
ed when in Salt Lake a couple of weeks
ago. that he proposed to go after all the
business west OF TOnoDah and tributary
to the Hazen cutoff line, including Fair
view Wonder. Ramsey and other camps
while he expected to get share of bust
ness from TOnopah, Goldfield Manhat-
tan and any other portion Of the country
where the ores would have to pass
through HaZen. II is understood that a
strong combination OF capital will have
a finger i'm the business with Mr. Smith
and il is also understood that ores will
be bought and sold in the same way rs
other sampling companies I'm the state of
Nevada do business.
An order for all of the machinery and
equipment has been placed with the Salt
Lake Hardware company. and delivery
will begin within the next two weeks,

HEINZE PULLS OUT.
Goes to Butte and Leaves Orders
That No News Be Given Out.

The secret of f. A Heinze's crowding
business matters all day Thursday with
such a rush was made apparent XeSter-
day. when il was stated at the offices OF
the ma gnate that he took the night tram
for Butte. Captain Duncan MacNichle
stated during the afternoon that thcie
was nothing 10 give out for publication
concerning any of the matters with which
the Montana operator was connected, SO
there you are.
II is believed that had Manager Thomas
Weir of the Ohio Copper company been
in the city something might have devel
oped concerning the deal for the control
Of the stock in that company, with which
Mr.. HenZeS name has been connected.
There appears to be no question but that
the sale has been made and the impress
sion is that could the principals have got
together there would have been reorgan-
iZatiOn of the directorate. Against that
opinion is the other TO the effect that the
first payment only on the stock had been
arranged and that there would be no sur
rendering of possession of the mine and
no replacing of officers and directors ut>-
til the final payment, which is not be
leved to be due for sixty days yet. BY
the first of the coming year il is cOnSid-
cred safe TO say that the control of the
mine will have passed into the hands of
the crowd which is represented by Hetnze;
that work will go along as usual under
the present management there seems TO
be no doubt
There have been all kinds of statements
and rumors concerning the price at which
the 625.0c0 shares controlled and owned
by the CatrOws is being obtained. Ii has
been reported at all prices from soc TO
So but no one, apparently, outside Of the
principals knows just what it is. Neither
does it matter much. Every cent paid
will be clean velvet TO the vendors. ut
any rate, as the mine has already repaid
them every penny spent upon it.
The great value of the mine has been
demonstrated and all it now requires is
10 be properly equipped for the campaign
ahead. 1t is understood that orders for a
great hosting plant have already been
placed and that IL was given by the
Heinze interests. And whether it has or
not there Is no question but that it will
be- as the great operating shaft is going
down and the machinery will be soon
needed. The Ohio is going to take it's
place in the ranks of the great producers
and dividend earners of the Bingham
camp and men who know the mine de-
clare that the stock OF the company is
lust as certain TO reach $40 or more a
share as il is certain that that price has
been greatly exceeded by the Utah Con-
solidRted, Boston Consolidated and Utah
Copper

LITTLE BELL HAS STRIKE
Two Feet of Fine Ore Cut in Sink
ing Wine From 700
Level.

Two feet of fine ore has been cut in
sinking the Winze for the 700-foot level
Park City. The news was brought down
by Superintendent Henry Jones, who
came down Thursday night for q day or
two's visit with his family here He
states that the inclined Wine that is be-
ing sunk in the western portion of the
companyS domain TO connect with the
contact has reached a depth of something
over thirty feet and that, while Roadway
was rather slow in the beginning, no
trouble is being experienced now.
Superintendent Jones states that con-
siderable distance will have to be Gov
cred before the contact is reached. but
the fact that ore is already making out
into the bedding planes shows how strong
the naturalization is and gives an idea
of what may be expected as the great
ledge is approached Mr.. Jones states
that the mine generally is looking fine.
and that a good tonnage of fine ore is be-
ing marketed AL the time.
