Ida DISTRICT MINES
MAKING GOOD SHOWING

A strike of considerable import is re-
ported from the Ida Queen. 1t was
made in the lease being worked by DR..
Boyd, on the Contact claim, and was
made yesterday morning. The doctor
has been running a crosscut from the
shaft, which is down about 25 feet.
and when in Is feet cut into a body of
ore which carries a considerable guam
tity of galena. As the high grade ores
of the Buster have always carried a
good percentage of lead, this find is con-
sidered of especial value. No assays
have been had from the new strike as
yet, but the general appearance of the
ore is sufficient to show that it is of a
good grade. There were three feet of
the vein exposed when our informant
left for town, so the extent of 1t is
yet unknown.
J.. r. Hall, sales agent. and r. J. Grant
of the firm of Fairbanks, Morse IL Co.,
made a hurried trip from Tonopah yes
terday to look over the ground at the
Buster, preliminary to installing the
mill for the company. The plant will
likely be erected in the Buster canon,
as 1t has been found, after investigation,
that it will be cheaper to pump the
water from Pigeon Springs than to haul
the ores from the mine to the proposed
site at the springs. The excavations
will be made for a twenty-stamp plant,
with an immediate installation of ten
stamps and the remainder later in the
season.
The Prouty lease has cut the ledge in
the shaft at a depth of forty feet. but
has not yet determined whether 1T is
the same ledge as showing in the old
workings, it's course being somewhat at
variance with that in the old shaft.
The Wilson lease is now being worked
by Charles L. Austin and associates.
who have purchased an interest in it..
The shaft at the mouth of the tunnel
will be sunk to to a considerable depth
from its present point, and a crosscut
run to the ledge from hat at a depth
of sixty feet.
The Excelsior has opened up several
leads on their ground in the last few
days, and the outlook seems to be good
for finding a mine in that vicinity. Fred
Strong, an experienced mining man from
Cripple Creek. is at present in charge of
the work.-Palmetto Herald.

present rate of progress will be reached
about the middle of the month
Trenching is in progress at the point
where the rich float vas found two
weeks ago. about 1000 feet northwest
of the shaft. Herman A. Keller. the
we'll known mining engineer of New
York City. inspected the property this
week. and was so favorably impressed
with the Indications that he purchased
a good-sized block of the treasury stock
WEST END-General Manager Kerr
of the West End reports that an addi-
tional ten feet of ore was opened up this
week on the footwall of the south seq
ment of the big ledge on the 4OO-foot
level. The ore is of a high shipping
grade, and the new development gives
the ore shoot an extreme width or 40
feet. A shipment of 81 tons was made
last Monday and forty tons went Tor
ward to the smelter Thursday-a total
of "a tons for the week. Work Is pro-
crossing as usual on the 400 level north
OF the shaft, with satisfactory results.
Good progress is being made in the
air connection with the MacNamara, and
this work will be completed in about
ten days.
Observation-Disclosures. Chandler OF
the MacNamara reports that the mine
is looking better than ever, the west
drift from the raise on the 30O-foot
level continuing in ore of a very high
grade. The returns from the hfty-ton
shipment made last Saturday Melted the
company $176 a ton, the gross value
being 1910. The air connection with the
West END will be completed in about
ten days..

M,coRMAcK's REPORT ON
BULLFRoG ACTIVITY

Mr.. ]. c. Mccormack, who returned
recently from Bullfrog. reports that
conditions there are exceptionally good.
Much activity is noticeable all through
the locality and extensive development
is under way. The new big gasoline
hoist for the Gibraltar company is now
being hauled from Johnny Siding to the
property.
Another hoist of about the same cali
Der and belonging to the Golden Scep-
ter company is also at the siding await
ing further transportation.
The Montgomery Shoshone Extension
company, drifting both ways on a ledge
from the 10O-foot level. have found such
encouraging values that it has been de-
cided to sink an additional 100 feet. The
shaft is a double compartment timbered
from top to bottom with square set
timbers and the property is fully
equipped for extensive development.
On the Montgomery Shoshone so or
so men are working on development and
the ore extracted in this work is being
saved. Good values are running and
large bodies of ore are in sight which
assay 800. Smaller and infinitely rich
err veins are in evidence which return
thousands. Plans are now completed
for the erection of a boarding house on
the property and supplies for the work
are now on the way from Salt Lake.
A large force of men are at work on
the Rush property. On noun
tain the Bullfrog Victor Consolidated
NJ. Co. which was formerly the Bull
frog Bonanza Hill NJ. Co, on last Mon
day opened up a large vein of ore which
assays on the surface from 5000 to
$500. The ledge appears in several
places and the showing is splendid.

A TRIBUTE TO THE PRESS.

Judge Henry s. Barker of the Ken lucky court of appeals, in giving his decision last week 1u B suit for
 against daily newspaper, paid this noteworthy tribute to the press:
 An independent press does more day by day to crush cut crime and restrain criminals than all of the or ganized and paid constabulary of the state; the searchlight of it's investiga- tion into the conduct of public officials is more dreaded by the corrupt and vicious than all of the sanctions of the penal law: and as an upbuilder and sustainer of an enlightened pub lie opinion it constitutes large part of the foundation of civil liberty. Those whose faith is sufficiently op- timistic to indulge a hope for the per manency of our institutions and civi- lization must rest it in large part, at least, upon confidence in the quick ening influence of an untrammeled press upon the public conscience"

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is i,
 Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature but few realize it's value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose.
 Charcoal is remedy that the mors you take of is the better: it is nof s drug at all, but simply absoros th gases and impurities always preset. in the stomach and intestines and ca~ ries them out of the system
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating on ions or other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and i'm proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe catlartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probaly the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in much improved condi. ton Of the general health, better com. rlexion, sweeter breath and pure blood, and the beauty of it is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but on the contrary. great benefit.
 A Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoal says: "l ad vise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stom. ach and bowels, and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; also believe the use Of them; they cost but twenty-five liver IS greatly benefited by the daily cents box at drug stores, and al though in some sense patent prepa. ration, yet I believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary 'barcOal tablets"

It may be interposed in behalf of Bass" Little that the reason he never accomplished anything for Pine Bluff or his district while in congress is that since the fatal free silver cam- paign and his entry into the lower house, congress has been Republican. However, the same thing can be said about Joe Robinson, but in his brief term in congress he has already se- cured an appropriation for the pur- chase of a postoffice site in Pine Bluff and federal building is prac- tically within our grasp.

A HINT TO SPEAKER CANNON.

The love of power grows by what It feeds on. The possession of authofl1y is quite liable to turn the head ot man who is not we'll fitted to use it.. The true leader is a man who en- blows with wisdom and moderation the opportunities placed in his hands to direct the actions of others. The boss is a man intoxicated with author ity and ready to abuse it to obtain more.
 This is distinction which Speak CT Cannon of the House of Represen- tatives at Washington is respectfully invited to keep in mind. Certain de- moralizing practices in the house which interfered seriously With the transaction of public business made it necessary to bring the lower branch of congress under the rule of "czar. But this resort to "autocracy,' as it was called under the rule of Speaker Reed was to facilitate, and not to retard, needed legislation. It was the last intention of the original "czar' of the house to establish despotism for any personal or even strictly par tisan purpose.
 Speaker Cannon would do well to re- member this The tactics he is en- ploying in connection with the state hood bill for Oklahoma and Indian territory makes the public fear that he has forgotten the primal purpose of arbitrary rule in the house. With a rank abuse of that policy every yes tige of excuse for it's practice will disappear and revolt will become con- pulsory-Kansas City Star.
