It is curious how people viii refuse

heart, upset the nervous system and
cause indigestion, and they may
laugh at you if they don't know the
facts.
Prove it by science or by practical
demonstration in the recovery OF
coffee drinkers from the above con-
d%itions, and a large per cent. Of the

The successful man Of to-day is the
one who has an education that has a
market value, contends the Louisville
CourierJournal. This applies to all
classes of men. The writer, the law
yer, the surgeon, the merchant and
the engineer, can measure his value
to the world largely by what men are
willing to pay for his service. The
conception of an education has been
greatly modified in recent years. A
man is educated who is skilled in do
ing some useful thing; who mani
tests All interest in all men engaged
in useful work; who Is always striv-
ing to be more skillful and better in
formed in his own work. The beau
ties Of art, literature ana philosophy
do not belong to any class Of men.

Mother Says: "Cutfcura Remedies

last year, after having my little girl
treated by a very prominent physician Tor
an obstinate case OF eczema, l rcsorted to
the Cuticura Remedies, and was so we'll
pleased with the almost instantaneous re-
lief afforded that we discarded the physl-
clans prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and
Cuticura Pills. When We commenced with
the Cuticura Remedies her feet and limbs
were covered with running sores. In
about six weeks we had her completely
well, and there has been no recurrence OF
the trouble. We find that the Cutlcura

BIG MINING DEAL
HiIIhouse Property In Russell District Sold
by The Rocky Mountain Bank 10 the
Metacomet N. 8 NJ Co.
NEW MACHINERY AND SHAFT BUILDINGS

The Hillhouse mine in Russell district
was sold last week to f. II. Symonds and
associates, comprising party OF eastern
people. The consideration is private,
but in view of the fact that the Hill.
house has been good producer it is pre-.
sumed tnat the price paid for the prop
erty was handsome. The syndicate
which purchased the mine from the
Rocky Mountain bank is known as the
Metacomet Mining & Milling company,
with capitalization of 100000.
The Hillhouse is one of the Oldest
patented claims in the Russell district.
1t has been worked lately by Jones g.
Jones and has past production of up
wards of sl50,0OO, and under the able
management Of VIM. Tippett, who has
been engaged to superintend operations,
ought TO produce 100000 more. The
Metacomet people intend to sink shaft,
which is located in the center of the
claim and is down to a depth of 100 feet,
several hundred feet and drive levels.
AS soon as the shaft is enclosed with a
new building and heavy plant of ma.
chinery installed, operations will be con.
tinuously prosecuted. The main shaft on
the Hillhouse is down 500 feet, but as
this is on one end of the claim, will not
be worked for the present by the new
company
F. Il. Symonds, who negotiated the
purchase of the property is a new man
in the camp. He came to Gilpin county
short time ago and has become very
much interested in this section, and
claims that he likes Colorado in general
much more than he does any of the east
ern states. Mr.. Symonds is an enter
prisising gentleman and believes in ad-
vancing a community or district in which
he is living. He was present at the
booste meeting held in Black Hawk
last week and was very enthusiastic over
the proposition Of advertising and boost
ing Gilpin county. He left for his home
in the east Saturday and may bring his
family west.

Permanent ORGANIZATION.
Board Of Trade Elects Officers and Direct
ors-Large Meeting.

The meeting OF the Board OF Trade OF
Gilpin county was called to order in the
city hall last evening by Temporary
Chairman D. w. Taylor. One hundred
citizens and business men of the county
were present. The first order of bust
ness was the election of permanent
| chairman. II. G. Bolsinger was elected
by acclamation.
Upon taking the chair Mr.. Bolsinger
thanked the gathering for the honor it
it had conferred upon him and said he
would use his earnest efforts to make or
ganization an absolute success. "Gilpin
county needs an organization of this
kind" continued Mr.. Bolsinger. "What
the county has done should be laid be
fore the outside. Gilpin county has
largely developed the state of Colorado
in mining way. Prior to the discov-
cry of gold and silver in Leadville this
was the principal mining county in the
state. The money taken out OF this
camp has gone to develop other sections.
Very little capital is coming here but
by advertising in the proper way it will
be no difficult task to interest capital.
Money judiciously spent will bring as
good returns here as can be had by
money put in any other mining section
of the state"
Speaking of the proposed Glpin &
Clear Creek railroad Mr.. Bolsinger said:
This organization should assist this
movement all it can and all who can
should attend the meeting in the opera
house Thursday evening. If this road
is ever built not only will it be paying
proposition but it will be the means of
increasing the output Of the county
one half. Cheap transportation is what
we want and We want to use the railroad
to utilize the water in the northern part
of the county for milling purposes 1t
is the duty Of every citizen to get that
water into this county. / am in favor
Of creating bonded debt to procure
this water and the railroad. If we can
raise the money We can take the bonds
of the road for security. l feel that
something should be done to revive the
lull which has taken place 10 this
