Mcclellan Wants
to CraWfiSh

The rapid rise of Jumbo stock
within the past few days has
brought about strange condl-
tion Of affairs in regard to Il
100, 900 shares block Of the stock
which now lies in escrow in the
John S. Cook Company $ bank.
Nearly a year ago George Nc
Clellan, former vice president
and director OF the Jumbo Min
ING Company. gave an option on
the stock to the Booths, Butte,
Montana. people at 81 10 per
share. Within few days the
option falls due and he has en-
Joined the Butte people from
takidg it up. 1t is also under
stood that the other people are
now Interested with him on the
deal and it means considerable
money to them should the en-
ioinment hold good in the courts.
The giyers of the option al
lege that the Butte people have
not kept their agreement and at
no time have they put one cent
on their option nor even since
have they put up any money
q, The con ntrovefsy promises to
be an interesting one as the stock
is now practically up to the
optional prices selling around
81 35, and all indications are that
it will soar still higher.
What the Butte people have
to say in regard to the matter is
not yet known, but one thing
appears to be certain they will
make a stiff fight and the case
may have to be threshed in the
courts unless a compromise is
etfec ted.
AT any rate, 100000 shares of
valuable stock is now enjoined
so that neither party can use it.

PROSECUTING
DEVELO OPMENT
GiToux Company Blocking Out Ore
for Extraction in the Spring.
SmeIter Is Practically
Completed

The GirouX Con. Mines Co.
has increased its working force
to seventy men and is prosecu-
ting development at the differ
ent workings with more than
ordinary vigor. Cross-cuts are
being run on the I50-ft. level of
the Alpha and the vein matter
from which the values have been
practically leached out on the
300-ft. level is showing values of
most encouraging nature and
argues we'll for the theory which
Mr.. Jos. l.. GirouX has persis-
tently adhered to that when the
permanent water level has been
reached the ore measure will be
found to have been enriched
from the teaching Of the vast
area above.
A large station is being cut
out on the SCOTT. level of the
GirouX and the ore body is being
blocked out preparatory to an
active campaign Of extraction in
the early spring.
The smelter-Is practically com
pleted. All the machinery and
equipment are on the ground,
though not in place, as yet.
Work on the smelter was sus-
pended at the beginning Of the
exceedingly cold weather which
We have experienced for the past
two months. 1t is not at all
probable that the smelter will he
blown in until the railroad is
completed to the mines, afford
ing cheap fuel, and as the rail
road is not likely to be COM
pleted before the first of May it
was thought best to wait for
warmer weather to complete the
smclter, when the work could
be done more cheaply and salts
factoriIy.

GOOD PROGRESS
At RUTH Mine
Fifty Men Now Employed Under
Cround...lnitiaI Test Of Gazing
system Will Be Made
In July.

The force Of miners has been
very materially increased at the
puth mine during the past week,
letween fifty and sixty men now
be,ng employed under ground.
More bnnk-houses are in course OF
construction and as soon as com
pleted. which will be within the
next ten days, thirty more men
will be put on in the mine. The
work of blocking out for the in
augnration of the caving sys-
tenn. by which the mine is to
he worked, is progressing nicely
and Superintendent f. F. Gray
feels confident that he will have
everything in readiness for the
initial test of the system by the
first of July. Two shifts are
working steadily on all four of
the levels Of the mine, extend
inc the drifts and croSscuts.
The first crosscut set was put
in on the 6OO-ft. level last week
and the crosscut driven ahead a
distance of fifty feet, which
shows they are going some on
that level.
Work has been suspended,
temporarily. in the big shaft on
the Star Pointer on account of
the supply Of tlmDers running
short. The shaft was being sunk
III the Idlt ot over i've lttN q
day and Il larger amount Of tim
bcrs WAS required for the work
than the management felt Jnstl-
fled in allotting at the present
time. as nearly all the timbors
now on hand will be required for
the developments going forward
at The Ruth. AS soon as the
settles an effort will be
made to get in more tlmbers
from the Snake Valley saw mill
but at present it would be a
waste of time to do anything in
that direction.

They Stand Alone.

Standing out in bold relief, all alone
and as conspicuous example of open,
frank and honest dealing with the sicl,
and afflicted, are DIR. Pierce's Favorite
prescription Tor weak, over-worked, de-
billtated, nervous, rrun-down,' pain
racked women, and DIR. Perce's Golden
Medical Discovery, the famous remedy
for weak stomach, Indigestion, or dys-
pepsia, torpid liver, or biliousness, all
catarrhal affections whether of the
stomach, bowels, kidneys, bladder, nasal
passages, throat, bronchia, or other mu-
ccous passages, also as an effective remedy
for all diseases arising from thin, watery
or impure blood, as scrofulous and skin
affections.
Each bottle OF the above medicines
bears. upon its wrapper a badge of hon.
esty in the full list OF ingredients COM
posing it-printed In plain English.
This frank and open publicity places
these medicines in q class all bp them
selres, and is the best guaranty Of their
nor secret medicines for they are neither
being Of knocn composition.
DR.. Pierce feels that he can afford to
take the afflicted into his full confidence
and lay all the ingredients Of his medi-
cines freely before them because these
ingredients are such as are endorsed and
most strongly praised by scores 0 the
nhoso chhlntub ItulCdi WTl4TS as cures
for the diseases for which these medi-
cines are recommended. Therefore, the
afflicted do not have to rely alone upon
Dr. Pierce's recommendation as to the
curative value of his medicines for Ger.
tain easily recognized diseases.
A glance at the printed formula on
each bottle will show that no alcohol and
no harmful or habt-forming drugs enter
into DIR. Pierce's medicines, they being
wholly compounded Of glyceric extracts
OF the roots Of native, American forest
plants. These are best and safest for
the cure OF most lingering, chronic dis
eases. DR.. r. V. Pierce can be consulted
FREE, by addressing him at Buffalo,
N. Y, and all communications are re-
garded as sacredly confidential.
IL is as easy TO be well as ill-and
much more comfortable. Constipation is
the cause OF many forms OF Illness. DIR.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipa-
tion. They are tiny, sugar-coated gran
ules. One little rPellet is gentle laxa-
tive, two mild cathartic. All dealers in
medicines sell them
