A TEMPERANCE SETTLEMENT.
What Lady Somerset Is Doing for the
Women Drunkards.

Recently it was announced that
Lady Henry Somerset had retired
from public life, to devote herself to
rescue work among erring and inebri-
ate women in the settlement at DuX-
hurst, England. 1t is now a decade
since the Duxhurst home was started,
the pioneer establishment of its kind.
1t has grown and developed, proving
the wisdom of its promoters, who held
that the needs of the individual must
be recognized by special care and sep
arate housing provisions; that the
personal, friendly example, which is
the salient feature of Christ's minis
try, must be the guiding principle;
and that the crushed, weak and tempt
ed can only be helped as they are led.
1t is in the spirit of this conviction
that she has now gone to Duxhurst,
there to spend the remainder of her
good and useful life. On August she
reached the vantage point of 55 years.
She has been the guiding spirit OF
DuXhurst from the beginning. 1t was

lesson in correct treatment for women
who are slaves of the drink habit, and
which has served to bring about need
ed and better legislation for the wom-
en- drunkards of Great Britain and
other countries.
1t is easily seen that the most i'm.
portant feature of the DuXhurst col
ony is the novel and wise arrange
bent for the recognition of the indi-
vidual. BY assigning the women to
cottages of six occupants, in charge
of nurse sister, the harm of contact
with others similarly afflicted is great
ly decreased. A healthy home atmos-
phere is created and each individual
can be more readily reached with
helpful influences. The cottages are
simply furnished with just such equip
ment as every self-respecting laborer
ought to have at home-clean, dainty

GIFT NOT ALL A GIFT.
Generosity That Was Purely the Re.

about F. Marion Crawford, the famous
novelist:

taken to call at a Concord clergy

box on his drawing room table, and,

hands, he amused himself with try.

all the money he had in the world.

ly it did go, and the coin slipped out

was a terrible crash of silver falling

CHILDREN TORTURED.
Girl Had Running Sores from Eczema
Boy Tortured by Poison Oak
Both Cured by Cuticura.

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by very prominent ply.
sician for an obstinate case of eczema,
l resorted to the Cuticura Remedies.
and was so we'll pleased with the al
most instantaneous relief afforded that
we discarded the physicians prescrip-
tion and relied entirely on the Cuti-
cura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Gu
ticura 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.
IN July of this year little boy in
our family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty
four hours his hands and arms were a
mass of torturing sores. We used
only the Cuticura Remedies. and in
about three weeks his hands and arms
healed up. Mrs Lizzie Vincent Thomas.

John Quincy Adams, of Massachu-

One day, the story runs, a case in

Rig SHOWING ON CLARK LEASE

The lucky star seems to have risen
this week and cast its beam on the
Wheeler Norcross ground. In addi-
tion to the strike in the Ramsey
Ophir tunnel, the Clark lease, about
200 feet above. has opened up about
fifteen feet of ore in an open trench
that will produce fine paintings wher-
ever a piece of ore is broken out.
Some spots in it are nothing less
than high grade ore and will produce
8 string of colors all around the pan
when pounded up and worked. The
strike in the Clark lease is right on
the great lead and this can be easily
determined by tracing the immense
ore body from the dixie below, right
up through the Ramsey-Ophir main
tunnel site and thence to the Clark
lease.
About midway in the trench where
the best values have been obtained,
a shaft is being sunk and is already
down to depth where the services
of a windlass are needed. This will
be put in at once and the leasers will
send the work along in record time.
They have pitched a ten near the
shaft to be used for a workshop and
are making every preparation for
active development.
1t is almost unnecessary to add
that the strike in the tunnel below
has had a very stimulating effect on
the ~leasers, and they are congratu-
lating themselves on the fortunate
acquisition of the well mineralized
ground, which has already given
such excellent esults.-Ramsey Re-
corder.

HIGH OPINION
OF BULLFROG

SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 10
Thomas S. Robinson of Goldfeld, di-
rector of the Jumbo Mining Com
pany and heavily interested through
out Nevada, in speaking of the Ne
vada situation in an interview here
says.
In my estimation, the camp of
Bullfrog will experience the next adj
vance in mining stocks. The COM
pletion of the railroad into that sec
ton, and the contemplated construc-
ton of two other lines, which are
really in the course of the building,
will so lessen the cost of incoming
and outgoing freight as to make it
possible to ship ore of a much lower
valuation than heretofore. In addi-
ton to this, the benefit of cheap oil
for fuel purposes will make it posi-
BILE to operate large and extensive
drilling plants.
In my judgment, the Gold Bar
property contains the largest body of
free milling gold + yet developed
in any of the southern Nevada camps.
There is at the present time de-
veloped in this property over $4,000
900 worth of pay ore, awaiting the
completion of them mill. The cross
cut on the 350-foot level has DEM
onstrated that this immense vein
over sixty feet wide contains a bet
ter grade of ore at this depth than
on the surface.
The Homestake property, which
adioins the Gold Bar, has recently
developed the same ledge On both the
200 and 300-foot levels. The ore is
Of a slightly better grade than that
found in the Gold Bar, but the ledge
is not as wide at this point.
The Bullfrog Daisy, which adjoins
the Homestake on the northeast. has
also encountered the extension of the
Gold Bar and Homestake.

o STRIKES 1T RICH
The Two "LOuies" Bond Second
Group of Claims

In the great Ely copper district
the ''tenderfoot'' has an even chance
with the prospector. This has been
demonstrated a dozen times in the
last six months in the sale by men
who never saw a mine before coming
to Ely of claims which they had To-
Gated more or less blindly. Good
prices have been obtained in nearly
every instance.
Three months ago Louis Nousseil-
letes, a former dining room employee
at Delmonico's in New York. bolted
out of town with Louis Choulet, a
fellow Frenchmap, and began to
prospect in the hills northwest of
Lane City, The two men looted some
ground which they sold recently for
several thousand dollars in cash.
Recently the two bonded to Jack
Creighton and u. b. Drum another
group of six claims, lying about two
miles north of the Keystone mine,
for a price said to be $4,000.
The two Frenchmen express them
selves as very we'll satisfied with
their work, and are planning to stake
out more claims and start a vegeta-
