HAWAIIAN COFFEE.

Do you ask your grocer for Hawaiian
coffee when you order your groceries?
Do you know that 1t IS the best coffee
that grows? Wen. it is, and that IS
no fabrication. The coffee tree is to
all inteEts and purposes a cherry tree,
whose cherries grow along the stems
and ripen at different times-a ripe and
n green cherry standing side by side
The picking must, of course, be done
bv hand, and unless the farmer has a
large family or cheap hired labor, such
as is impossible in a sparsely settled
territory, with few roads and no rail-
roads. he can't afford to grow coffee
However, there is a revival in coffee
farming, and as sugar becomes less
profitable, as Il is sure TO, coffee will
become a profitable crop for small
farmers, OF which there are as yet too
few in this territory

NEW PROCESS TO HANDLE ORE

Experiments are now being conducted
at the Commonwealth mine at Washoe
to ascertain a method to handle the
ores and it is said that the company
conducting the experiments has filed a
100000 guarantee for the success OF
the process now being tried. The ore at
the mine contains gold, silver, lead,
zinc, arsenic and copper worth alto

has been found to save the product on

LEASING

There will be an effort made to secure
the cooperation of all who are operat.
ing mines or leases in the Gweenah and
Skookum districts in the erection of a
stamp mill. Such a mill, it is figured,
would give an immediate market for al
ores in the district and stimulate work
in every direction. The leases and the
Lemaire mine at the Gweenah end OF
the district, when working at full ca.
pacity, would easily keep a five or 10
stamp mill busy from the time such Q
plant could be put into commission.

At a depth of $40 feet in the north
drift from the lower winze and approx

that comprises the estate of Mazuma
Hills Mining company, the greatest ore
discovery in the history of the mine,
according to the management, was
made a few days ago. Fully eighteen
inches of quartz that cannot be classed
as anything less than high grade pic
ture rock has been opened On the hang
ing wall of the vein at this point.
Specimens of this beautiful material
have aroused great interest throughout
the district. Their massive nature and
heavy discoloration with the finely
divided gold, which is distributed with
wonderful through the rock,
makes of it probably the best grade OF

REDUCING HIGH A

In consequence of its success in re-

of from fifty to two hundred dollars a
ton is now being run through the ten
stamp mill of the Seven Troughs Kin

estate of that corporation in Seven
Troughs canyon, says the Seven Troughs

HIGH GRADE FROM HARRIS

Manager Stevens of the Harris mine
near Washoe was in the city yesterday
exhibiting some fine specimens of ore
from that property. The ore was of the
specimen sort, with free gold literally
plastered and s~prinkled throughout.
Those who saw ore from the big mine
years ago recognized the specimens
brought to the capital yesterday.
Mr.. Stevens says that the ore was
caught ON the 400-foot level of the mine
and there is every indication of per-
maneney and also a large ledge of the
stuff. The ore attracted considerable
excitement on the street.-Carson Ap-
