WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Uneeasins Work Keeps Us
 Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every thre minutes. The kidneys filter the blood They work nigt and day. When healthy they remove about 800 grains of impure matter dailI, when un- healthy some part of this impure mat ter is left in the blood. This brings on many diseases and symptoms pain in the back, headache, nervous ness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of the eyesight and hearing. dizziness irregular heart, debility. drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But if you keep the filters right you will have no trouble with your kidneys.

Hawkins, 669 YeSler Way Seattle, Wash, says: Tt gives me pleasure to confirm the statement l gave for publication some years ago in favor of Doan's Kidney Pills as the relief l obtained from thelr use has proven permanent. l suffered from an acute attack of kidney Tou- tIe and though l used remedy after remedy, l was unable to find relief. l had the most severe pains across the small of my back and was also annoyed by irregular passages of the. kidney secretions.

OIL STRUCK
 AT kATALLA

KataIa is again experiencing a re- yival of the oil boom, the latest strike being in the neighborhood of Martin river, about eight miles from the town.
 The discovery was made late last fall. too late to permit of any work lut with the going of the snow work was commenced with one rig, and two more will be in operation as soon as they can be obtained from the states.
 At this latest discovery oil is found bubbling from the ground in consid- erable quantities, and is accompanied by a flow of natural gas, which when lighted burns to height of about four feet.
 Considerable activity is being dis r.ayed throughout the entire oil field adjacent to Katalla, a number of rigs how being at work, and several com ranies are making preparations to begin work at an early date.-Valdez ProSpectOr.

The Koyukuk does not seem to have fulfilled the earlier expectations, as to it's wealth, according to Harry Bronson, who has just returned from that camp, for of the fifty prospec- tors who have ben in the country all winter, not one has discovered anything.
 The country is rough and much broken, and to date has shown no paystreak. There have been some rich spots found, but nothing in the way of q we'll defined pay channel.
 On the lowr portion of 8 below Nolan, Oscar Johnson is doing very well on one of these spots, and just below Bronson's departure on the last of March Murray and Sam Olson struck q spot of very rich pay on 2 below Nolan.

WILL RENEW. LEASING.

GOLDFIELD, Aug. 1g.-That the
leasing system will be renewed in
Goldfield upon a scale even larger
than during the so-called boom days,
is now assured. Practically every
one of the Wingfeld properties is
thrown open to leasers upon
Favorable terms. The result will be
an activity in the hills to the east
not equaled since the early days of
the camp.
Officially, announcement is made
today that leases could be obtained
upon favorable terms upon the Blue
Bull, Columbia Mountain, Con-
queror, Golden Boulder, Berkeley,
Ethel. May Queen, Kendall, Lena
Fairview, Midtown. Nevada Boy,
Sandstone, Tonopah Gold Mining,
Booth, Nome Trust and Tennessee
properties. All of these estates are
in the hands of George Wingield,
and 1T is said to be his ambition to
see every n of them pounding away
by day and by night before snow
commences to fly. H. S. Stark is
the consulting engineer of these
claims, and has been authorized to
enter into favorable terms with pros
pective operators.
This announcement will largely
destroy the impression that has gain
ed a foothold to the effect that Gold
field has, during the past year be-
come a "one-man camp and that
the ordinary outsidst' with a few
thousand dollars to invest in legiti-
mate mining enterprises can hope for
no benefits in this part of the state.
Mr.. Wingfield is anxious 20 have
every wheel in the district hum with
busy operation, and to this end has
emphasized his willingness to be lib
eral with all prospective leasers on
his individual estates. At least half
OF the properties named have more
than an even chance for big pay ore,
and a systematic and minerlike
course of development is sure to re-
dound to the financial benefit of the
hackers.
With fully half a dozen properties
in camp on the eve of important
revelations, and the announcement
of Mr.. Wingfield that every induce
ment will be offered to those desiring
to wrest from the rich ground of
'Goldfield the riches unquestionably
buried therein, there is ample ground
for the prediction that a new era has
opened for this district. Before the
end of the present year there ought
to be half a hundred new gallows
frames erected.
The result of this activity can
scarcely be over-estimated. Discour-
agement on the part of would-be
leasers in Goldfield will give way to
extreme optimism and a determine
ton to dig for the gold that under
lies this entire section. Coming on
the v of the mining congress, Mr..
W~ingfeld's announcement will exert
a tremendous influence towards fu-
ture development in this region.

CLAIM GREAT, GOLD DYKE.
Ledge 800 Feet Wide, Which Pans
Clear Across, Found North
of Wells.

SALT LAKE, Aug. 17-Possibly
a new gold district has been discover
ed in Nevada. Somewhere about
thirty miles north of Wells, in Elko
county-the exact location is a secret
for the present. party of men
which includes a Salt Lake prospec-
tor and several New York capitalists
has been engaged the last two weeks
opening a dyke 800 feet wide, be-
tween quartzite and rhyolite, which,
they have found, pans gold clear
across, in quantity which has arous-
ed the discoveries to a high pitch
of excitement.
Within the last few days the men
fastened to the nearest railroad
point to purchase supplies and en-
ploy miners for an extensive cam
paign of development, and they
have FASTENED back to complete the
locations which will make their
holdings safe.
So excited are the New York cap
italists, it is said, that they have
already offered the Salt Lake pros
pector $4,000 for his interest in
the new field.
The prospector took the fasteners
out to show them some property
which he had already located, and
developed to some extent, and the
new find vas made by accident.
Scarcity of wood and water con-
stitutes a serious drawback for the
new district, but, it is said, if sur
face indications count for anything,
that disadvantage will not prevent
a boom of the Goldfield-Tonopah
order.

AFTER
A LONG PULL
TUNGSTEN PROPERTIES NEAR
OSCEOLA PASS TO THE HANDS
OF CAPITAL WHICH WILL DE-
VEIOP THEIR VALUES.

O.. A. Turner, president of the Ely
Central Copper Co. has purchased
the tungsten properties on the west
slope of Mount Wheeler, from James
H. Marriott, the merchant and min
ing man of Osceola.
The deal was consumated through
E. La Fletcher, the Muncy mining
man, and although the exact details
of the sale are not public, the nee
essary papers have been signed and
the first payment has been turned
over to Mr.. MARRIOTT.
Mr.. Fletcher has been appointed
manager of the properties which con-
sist of twenty-five contiguous claims.
A corps of surveyors under the direc-
ton of O. G. McCraney are now max
ing a survey of the group for patent
ing. The mines will be extensively
developed by Mr.. Fletcher and ar
rangements are now being made to
erect necessary buildings on the
ground.
The tungsten claims are about IL
miles south of Osceola. They were
located about II years ago by Charles
~ 0opJ VI thio WY aio l..
Buntin, now a resident of Salt Lake.
They were unable to determine the
identity of the strange mineral which
/ they opened. Samples of the ore
were sent to different mining schools
and the mineral pronounced to be
hubernite by Professor Charles Lakes
of Denver, Colorado.
Messrs' Gaby and Buntin later or
worked the claims in %ahdlsuuuuu
gained the Tungsten district and
worked the claims in a desultory
manner for several years, when they
sold to Mr.. Marriott.
Development work has been car
ried on by Mr.. Marriott for the last
seven years, but early attempts to
market the ore proved futile. owing
to the fact that the nearest railway
point then was at Frisco, Utah, 100
miles distant. A small concentration
was placed on the properties some
years ago and several ions were
shipped to eastern points, which
Melted the owners better than seventy
per cent in Tungstic acid.
1t is estimated by persons who
have visited the properties that there
are thousands of dollars worth OF
ore on the dumps. Large boulders
of pure hubernite have been taken
from the workings, the largest lumT
weighing over 10 pounds. Wood and
water are abundant and can be con.
v%eniently obtained for milling OF
other purposes.
