cas- long ago as can remember my
mother was faithful user and friend
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, but
never in my life have I realized it's true
value until now,'' writes Prof. Fl. A..
Howell, of Howell's American School,
Havana, Cuba. ''On the night of Feb
ruary 3rd our baby was taken sick with
very severe cold, the next day was
worse and the following night his con-
dition was desperate. He could not lie
down and it was necessary to have him
in the arms every moment. Even then
his breathing was difficult. did not
think he would live until morning At
last thought of my mothers remedy,
Chamberlain Cough Remedy, which
we gave, and it afforded prompt relief,
and now, three days later, be has fully
recovered Under the circumstances I
would not hesitate a moment in saying
that Chamberlain Cough Remedy, and
that only, saved the life of our dear
little boy" For sale by Kaufman

general way the panic has done good.
"The people have become cautious.

are ahead of the same time last year.
We have bought larger stock and

We sold 800 worth Monday. Wednes-

better business than last year, a cash

MILLION PROHIBITION
VOTES.
Will Be Sixteen Prohibition States Two
Years From Now.

Chicago, according to Charles R..
Jones, national chairman of the pro-
hibition party, is from the point Of
view of prohibitionists the worst city
in the United States, with New York
close second. New York state,
however, carries off the palm as the
state least amenable to prohibition
influence, while Pennsylvania is Sc
cond in backsliding. Mr.. Jones took
an optimistic view of the future of his
party in an interview at the Hotel
Belmont. He predicted that every
state in the union would declare for
prohibition in time.
"The prohibition party" he said,
"has increased 100 per cent. in eight
years. In-the same time the Repub-
lican party has gained only ~ per
cent, while, the Democratic party
has fallen off 10 per cent. Prohibi-
ton territory during the year just
passed has more than doubled. Last
year Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi,
Texas, Florida and Oklahoma were
added to the three prohibition states,
Maine, North Dakota and Kansas. [
predict that in the next two years we
shall have won over to prohibition
ten mole states, namely Arkansas,
Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Tennessee, West
Virginia, Colorado and We mont. The
others will follow soon after. Last in
the list will come New York state.
The prohibition party, Mr.. Jones
declared, will be3a strong force in the
coming presidential election. Through
the organization of national issue
clubs voters were being recruited for
the Prohibition ticket. Thousands Of
these clubs, he said, mad been organ
lied since the first Of this year. Pro-
iibition was now sure of 500. 900 votes.
By the time of the presidential cleo
ion Mr.. Jones was sure the number
would be doubled
Bryan" said Mr.. Jones, twill un-
doubtedly be the Democratic candi-
date. But I do not think he runs a
chance of being elected, for the
Southern voters who have been DEM
ocrats and are now prohibitionists
will not vote for him unless he has a
prohibition plank in his platform.
The prohibitionists would fight Taft
were he the Republican candidate,
for he opposed prohibition in the con-
stitution of Oklahoma. Mrs. Taft,
too, is on the record as favoring the
restitution of the canteen."
The prohibition convention is slated
for July is, at Columbus, Ohio New
York Sun.

KIRCHEN IS THE
new MANAGER
SUCCEEDS BRYCE TURNER IN
CHARGE OF MONTGOMERY
SHOSHONE AFFAIRS.

John G. Kirchen, superintendent
of the Tonopah Extension, accompa-

FOR Rhyolite and will return some
time next week.
Mr.. Kirchen has but recently been
appointed manager for the Montgom-

properties in that country.

WATER fight To
Be Big Feature
VOLUNTEER FIRENIEN WILL EN-.
GAGE IN NOVEL CONTEST
ON THE FOURTH.

Interest in the coming Fourth of
July celebration is assuming proper
lions, and the affair gives promise
OF eclipsing anything of it's kind eve'
before attempted. The amount of
prize money offered men engaged in
the drilling contests and being con-
fined to men who are members of the
Tonopah Miners Union, it can rea-
Oily be understood that the contest
will be above the ordinary.
The Volunteer Firemen are pre-
pairing to make a grand showing.
Uniforms are on the way, and it is
expected that they will arrive here
the forepart of next week Owing to
the fact that Will Grimes is a mem-
Der of the Tonopah Band, manipulate
ing the base drum, and as there are
but few musicians who can play this
delicate instrument, he was forced
to resign from the position of cap
tain of one of the hose cart teams
which will race on the Fourth. He
will be succeeded by Bob Pohl.
The water fight scheduled to take
place by the Volunteer Firemen will
be one of the most interesting and
novel features Of the day Hose will
| be attached to the fire hydrants, four
men holding each nozzle, and at Il
given signal the water will be turne
on. Then the fight will commence il
earnest and will afford much amuse
ment, and probably some discomfort
should the spectators get in the way
of the streams
Another feature will be the base
ball games to be played on thu
4th and 9Th.
The mines and business house
closing for two days will give an OPP
portunity for everybody to partici
pate.
Another event that should certain
ly draw large crowd is the fight be
tween Terry Mustain and Jacl
(Twin) Sullivan, which occurs on TIL
night of the Fourth. The know
reputation of Sullivan and the pros
pect of it's being one of the best mill
pulled off in this neck of the wood
will induce a large crowd from Gold
field, Manhattan, Round Mountain
Millers, the nearby camps and eve
Reno and other cities in the north
ern part of the State. A message wa
received last night by c. w. Mile
from San Francisco which said tina
Sullivan and his manager woul
leave this morning for Tonopah.

w. S. JOHNSON VISITS THE CAMP
AND IS SURPRISED AT THE
WORK THERE.

w. S. johnson returned yesterday
from Manhattan, where he had gone
on a tour of inspection of mining
properties in which he is interested.
He was surprised at the amount OF
work going on in the camp. Many
leases are being operated, and there
are many applicants for additional
ones. On the Shea lease on the Union
No. 8, he saw some of the finest rock
that has been his privilege of hand
ling in long time. On the 200-foot
level Of the Stray Dog, at a distance
of 20 feet from the shaft four-foot
ledge was encountered which pans
freely in gold. An outfit are work
ing a combination dry wash and
placer machine on the Riley fraction
adjoining the Stray Dog which in
less than five days washed out "A
ounces in gold. Another dry wash
ing machine is working on the Tip
Top claim of the Seylor-Humphrey
Mining company's ground The Gold
Crater, which has a dumpeof some 70
tons of ore, has been sampled, and
the nature of the assays has led the
company to enter upon negotiations
with the owners of adjoining ground
looking toward the installation OF
mill for the purpose of handling tn:
output. 1t is confidently expected
that before long stamps will be drop
