Another Operat ton Avoided.
 Chicago, Ill. "I want women to know what that wonderful medicine, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, has done for me. Two of the best doctors in Chicago said I would die if I did not have an operation, and I never thought of seeing well day again. I had a small tumor and female troubles so that I suffered day and night. A friend recommended Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it made me a well woman. Mrs. ALvENA STERLING, il Langdon St., Chicago, Ill.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, made from roots and herbs, has proved to be the most successful remedy for curing the worst forms of female ills, including displacements, inflammation, fbroid tumors, irregu- larities, periodic pains, backache, bear ing-down feeling, fatulency, indiges' tion, and nervous prostration. Itcosts but trifle to try it, and the result has been worth millions to many suffering women.

SAYS REPORT
OF DISSOLUTION
is CORRECT
PROMINENT MAN SAYS WING
FIELD AND NIXON HAVE DIS
SOLVED INTERESTS.

The report that was published sew
eral rays ago concerning the dissolv-
ing of the partnership existing be-
tween George Wingfield and Senator
George S. Nixon is now believed to
be true. A gentlemen who recently
returned to this city from the east
where he was in the company of both
Wingfield and Nixon states that the
dissolution matters were settled be-
tween the gentlemen during his stay
there. He said that the adjustment
of the affairs was made in an amiable
matter for Nixon was not infatuated
with the mining game and was more
interested in the banking business,
while it was entirely opposite with
Wingfield.
This move, it is thought, will be a
beneficial one for southern Nevada,
for with the management of the var
ious mines resting on George Wing
field, he will in all probability start
work more vigorously than before as
he is willing to take greater chances
in the line of development work.

BRIGHT FUTURE OF
MAYFLOWER Mine
ARIA GEMENTS ARE BEING
MADE FOR DEVELOPMENT
ON LARGE SCALE.

RHYOLITE, April 2.-Everything
at the Mayflower mine and mill is
progressing most satisfactorily under
the able management of E. Sydney
Addition. The mill and cyanide adj
junct are doing excellent work, both
as to quality treated and the percent
age of recovery effected. And in ad-
dition are providing requisite data on
the treatment of the ores of the mine
for the planning of large reduction
works in the near future. 1t is cal
culated that this little five-stamp
plant is proving so effective that 1t
will be easily able to produce funds
sufficient to carry on an extensive
system of development, and probably
provide for the construction of a
large and suitable reduction plant.
Three Waugh hammer drills and a
large "slugger" are being added to
the equipment of chippy drills, ma.
terially increasing the force. Quite
an extensive system of development
and blocking out of ore is planned
which will require six or eight
months to carry through. Mean
while studies will be made on the
best manner of treating the ores ant

big mill will be started. So many and
important have been the applicants
for leases that the management has
been forced to be very circumspect in
alloting ground Consequently all
who secure contracts will be exper-
fenced mining men well provided
with capital for exhaustive work.
Taken as whole with ore galore
of very profitable grade, with an
economical experimental plant doing
grand work in the treatment of the
ore, and with the best formulated
system of leasing ever arranged going
into operation, the Mayhower gives
promise of magnificent future.
