Alice, the seven-year-od daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs w. Fl. Alexander, sustained
a painful injury late Saturday afternoon
while playing in the dooryard with other
children She was running and fell and
as a result her left hip was dislocated.
She will be unable to step for several
days although she is recovering as rapidly
as can be expected.
The Lynch hospital was closed last Sat
urday. At present no definite arrange
ments for the disposition of the property
have been made although it is to be sold.
The house was built by j. p Sargent for
a hotel about eight years ago and was
conducted as such until nearly two wears
ago when it was sold to Mrs, William
Legs, who made extensive repairs and
fitted it up for hospital which has since
been under the management of Dr. E. X.
Lynch.
That signs of better times are at hand
for the farmers on Dummerston hill has
been proven recently by reports from
poultry raisers in that vicinity. The pro I
prietor of Sure Go farm owns hen of
popular breed which he vouches lays two
eggs day, and next comes the report
rom the proprietor of Apple Grove farm
Who declares one of his hens Matched l6
chickens from Is eggs last week: These
eports are not 'fsh" stories but APP
proved poultry reports.

LANDING A GIANT PIKE.
Forty-Five Inches in Length and Said
to Be Largest Caught in British Isles.

A giant pike. which is for English and
Scotch streams the record catch. was
caught last Sunday on the Hampshire
Stour by the orthodox method of rod and
line.
This fish was weighed and turned the
scale at 37A pounds. It's length is IS
inches and girth "A inches When first
taken out of the water on Sunday morn
ing it was weighed with spring balance
and reached the figure of 10 pounds, but
in the intervening time it has shrunk to
its present size. Said the captor of this
noble prize: 81 caught her on Sunday
morning on Lord Wimborne's estate. The
stream was in flood, and | was fishing
with snap tackle in very fast stream.

away l4-pound pike, which is probably
the male fish. I dropped my bait into
the run and it was carried by the swirl
round the corner into backwater which
shelved gradually up toward the bank
from the point of the island
''The pike took me fairly quietly, for
she was old and sluggish, and not for
some time did I realize that I was fast to
one of the biggest pike that have ever
been caught in the British Isles. She
fought me for nearly half an hour. and
at last / managed to get her toward the
shelving bank. My keeper, wild with ex-
cltemeht, plunged INTO tne water ana we
got her somehow.
'The whole thing was a fuke probably.
but anyhow we drank her health several
times. and felt considerably pleased with
ourselves
''She looked lovely on coming out of the |
water. The shading of her body was ex
1uisite, and the pink spots which have |
since grown blurred an faded showed up |
splendidlv Ny chief reason, however,
'or congratulation is that she must have

lecoy There is no close season for pike
IN the Stour, otherwise she might long

lucklings which we rear there every sum
ner and have missed in large quantities"

Mother and Child Fatally Burned.

Mrs Arthur Hawley, 81, and her year
old son, Roy, were burned to death yes,
terdav morning in their home at Mill
Village, a suburb of Rutland. They
were alone in the house at the time. The
neighbors were attracted to the house by
smoke and found the dead bodies of
mother and child on the kitchen floor. An
empty kerosene can was near the stove
and it is believed that the mother at
tempted to light fire with kerosene with
her child on her arm. The clothing was
burned from both, but death probably re-
suited from inhahng the flames, as the
bodies were not badly charred. The hus-
band is a mills~reddler.

T.C.M. COMPANY PUTS
 IN NEW MACHINERY
INsTALLs COMPRESSOR AND PRE- FARES FOR RAPID WORK IN ORE FIND.

TOMBSTONE, Dec. 3.-Another carload of compressor machinery has arrived for the T. c. a. Co. this being the fifth carload within the past few days The TWO big Prescott fiywheel pumps for the 500 level. com prising six full carloads, are nearly installed. a force of mechanics under the direction of Master Mechanic sam Garrett having been kept busy put ting the mammoth machinery in place on the big station level.
 The work of assembling and in staliing tha air compressor is already begun and will be pushed as fast as possible
 Thus it win be observed that the operations "cn the hill" are of more than ordinary import. It is coufii dently expected that everything will be in readiness to begin the work of pumping by the first of January.
 When all available pumping ma chinery is in operation the plant will be capable of raising 1OO0O,000 gal Ions of water daily, the compressor being one of the largest in the west It is the opinion of well informed mining men that important develop ments may be looked for shortly aft CT active resumption of unwatering the mines is begun. and feeling of hopefulness prevails that the year 1910 will mark the commencement Of one. of the most prosperous eras m the history of Tombstone.
 The recent strike of rich ore at the Tribute one Of the properties of T.. c. Nj. C.. gives promise of developing into a bananza. The ore find is be- ing opened and is proving larger ana better with development eSuperin- tendant Macia is much pleased aud and interested in the new discovery which is believed will develop mo one of the sensational ore deposits that have made the Toughnat group famous in this district.

SYLvANITE PROMISES GREAT PROFITS SOON
WORK PReREssEs IN SHAFT SUNK AND oTHeRS PREPARE FIR AcTIo.

During the summer the Gold HIu or Nihart property at Sylyanite. N NJ. was finally turned over 10 tBe Hardscrabble Mining Co. Of whicn the -Carlton Bros. of Cripple Creek. Colo. and T. c. Newcomb are the principal owners Steady and systematic davel- lopment has been made during the past four months under the direction of I J. Russell an experienced gold miner. who was mine foreman under the Carletons in the great Findlay mine at Cripple Creek. While a great deal of low grade ore was uncovered early in the operations of the Carle- tons. the big strike of high grade ore was not made until the latter part of October. and at the time was thought to be only a pocket, as often occurs in similar formations in Colorado and Nevada. Thirty-five feet of tunnel work did not show the end of the rich find IL will take cross-cutting to de. !, termine the width of the ore body. The present face of the tunnel az pears to be directly below the Ridge wood dyke which shows 800 feet above on the surface running in a northerly and southerly direction across the claim. Prospecting on the surface has revealed seven large blowouts of high grade ore.
 The present development indicates that the big ore body extends from the surface to the present tunnel 9 distance of 300 feet and shaft sunk from the tunnel distance of 30C will be necessary to determine how much deeper the ore body continues.
 The ore taken out in the course Of development is being packed on burro trains to the foot of the mountains thence on wagons to Hachita 13 miles distant and shipped to the mills at | Cripple Greek and to the smelters al Fl Paso and Douglas.

A PEsTIFERoUs GERM Burrows Up the Scalp Into Dandruff and saps the Hairs Vitality.


 People who complain of falling hair as rule do not know that it is the result of da3drun. which is caused by a pestiferous parasite burrowing up the scalp as it digs down to the sheath in which the hair is fed in the scalp Before long the hair root is shriveled up and the hair drops out If the work keeps thinning til badness comes. The only way to cure dandrusf is to kill the germ, and until now there has been no hair preparation that would do 1t; but today daadruff is easily eradIcated by Newbros Herpicide. which makes hair glossy aai soft as silk.
