CAMPER Camp in the West
Big Ore Bodies

The present Indications in the
Nh Mourtain copper district in
[;cste that they have hardly
,rotcbpd the surface in that great
h landmark. Mining men and
,rospectors, who have examined
hat region, have projected that
bs veins found there would prove
great surprise to mining men.
NE ore found has always contain
d large quantities of iron on the
urface, with the precious metals
| paying quantities.. Gold has
Iways been present and copper
nj silver have been found. As
epth is gained on any of the
tads so far prospected the cop
Yer and gold have increased in
|alue.
The largest development so far
as been upon the Elkhorn. 1t
AS a shaft 225 feet in depth AMI
he ore body has been exposed for
more than $50 feet. At present
tunnel ago feet in length is be.
pg run. In this tunnel a large
body of ore has been struck. 1t
not known how thick this body
!, but the tunnel has been push
ID 30 feet into it and the other
ide has not yet been reached. AT
bst accounts the ore body was in
reasing in richness and it is esti-
hated to be as rich as that found
the shaft, which runs 20 per
ent copper. Further news from
Dis new strike is looked for with
buch interest.
The Elkhart is another of the
FsIuable properties in that camp.
Mt so much development work
Jas been done on that lead as on
|he Elkhorn, but enough has been
lone to demonstrate that the ore
+ fully as rich, where it has been
int, as in the Elkhorn-in fact
here is no doubt that the lead is
|he same in both of these mines.
a shaft is to be sunk on the Elk
part some Is or 100 feet down
|he hill from the present shaft, to
hp the vein at Il lower depth.
The lead in the Elk mine, which
F still further down the noun
pin is an extension of the vein in
|he Elkhorn aud Elkhart. A great
feat Of development work has been
lone on the Elk and its ow
|re MS confident of its richness as
IRE the owners Of the Elkhorn and
.lkhart.
1t is quite certain that a mining
amp will spring up at some con-
point OH the side of Elk
Mountain this coming spring.
The development there will be
increased as soon as the
opens aud with the devel.
will come ii demand for
nail facilities and for better trans
.'ortation. Many other claims will
Ne opened, for the showing in
he mines now being developed
Will encourage those who

When the matter is looked at
rom every point, that of natural
ocatlon, the presence of timber
md water in abundance, and rail
DAD facilities, the prospects for a
inning camp of Importance on the
vest side of Elk Mountain in the
ear future is very good indeed.

Deafness Can Not be Cured

by local applications, as they cam
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by al intlamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eusta-
chian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbliE sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it
is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken ont and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an
inAamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of deafness (caus-
ed by catarrh thatcannot be cured

New York Capitalists Plan To Erect

A new, first-class hotel for Detroit,
to be located on the Bagley home site,
at Washington parkway, Bagley-ave.
and Park-st., is now beng considered
by New York capitalists.
These gentlemen have been attract
ed to Detroit as a favorable location
for big hotel aud entered into nego-
tiations for the Bagley site this week.
II is planned, II they secure the prop
erty, to erect building which will be
in every. way one OF the best hotels
in Detroit. 1t will be somewhat larger
than the fuller, the other hotel facing
Grand Circus park. and will cost up.
wards of S1.O00.000, it is said.
In case the Bagley site cannot DE
secured at what the New York men
consider fair price, some other cen
trail location near Grand Circus PARK
may be secured.
Another extensive building project
being talked Of among real estate men
is the erection of large family hotel
and apartment building out Woodward
ave. 1t is agreed that the changing OF
the Charlevoix, Madison, Addison and
Sibley apartments into hotels has
opened wide the way for the erection
OF new family hotels with certainty
OF profitable occupancy.
1.-THE reason that the nature of these
hotels was changed was not that they
did not pay as apartment houses with
cafe attached. bat because the tran.
sient hotel business pays better in De.
troit just now" declares well-in-
formed real estate man. up to the
time the fuller was erected, Detroit
had really decreased in hotel accom-
modations In 80 years, while its popu-
lation had grown immensely. The Bid
de and Michigan Exchange hotels had
been done away with and no new
hotels erected to take their place.
1.-The success. Of the fuller Is d.
rectly responsible fer the change in
policy OF the men owning the Madison,
Charlevoix, Addison and Sibley."

WANTS SALARIES ADJUSTED.
City Treasurer Would Have Council
Investigate Whole List.

There Is much Indignation among
heads of city departments in regard
to the stand taken by the council In
refusing almost all OF the increases In
salary asked for the coming year.
City Treasurer Max G. Koch is par
ticularly indignant at the refusal OF
the aldermen to correct what he be-
lieves to be inequalities In pay by
which some of his employees get far
less than they deserve. He Is consid
ering making a request that the alder
men appoint a committee to investi
gate salaries in all departments for the
purpose of equalization.
Something of this sort should be
done and at once" says Koch. "At
the present time salaries are very un
equal. think there are some men
getting too much. perhaps, but there
are more not getting enough"
Kocfrs proposition OF a salary equal
ization committee has been brought w
before, notably by Estimator Ward N
Choate several years ago, but has al
ways been put over.

Jared badly In the way of salary In

there isn't more money In being a
neutral arbitrator" II Is understood
that they receive retainers OF So,OVO
from street railway corporations.
Mr.. Bancroft said he considered his
commission fulfilled with the compile
ton OF the appraisal and its delivery
to the appraisal committee In the ex-
cellept book form In which Norman
Flowers and Edward c. Dunbar
brought II from the press. He would.
however, respond to the request OF
the committee OF fifty. to the extent
of any additional explanatory word
concerning the appraisal, II assured
of the support of the people of De-
troit. All present, members or the
Board of Commerce but speaking as
citizens only, assured the engineer OF
their appreciation and support. IL

already rendered, and II his PROBES
sional assistance Is required In de-
Tending the report against the attacks

time, he should be guaranteed reas-
enable fee for such, ADDITIONAL ser
vice.
In explanation of the extraordinary
attitude OF the committee OF fifty to-
ward the man they commissioned to
carry out the most vital function In
connection with the task assigned TO
them by the mayor. Edward c. Dun
bar, an associate of Mr. Barcrofts In
the labors of the past year, said that
the engineer proved to be too verte-
braic for his clients.
He was chosen with the idea that
he would be decently tractable and
plant. He turned out to be the kind
of tartar that Tammany caught In
Judge Gaynor.
After several courteous invitations
to visit ID. u. X. headquarters immedi-
ately after taking up the work, Bar
croft agreed to go provided someone
went with him. Dunbar went along.
In that interview II was proposed
that Bancroft and the corporation APP
praiser work together In beautiful
peace and harmony. They took him
for a damn fool" explained Dunbar,
land the discovery of their misjudg-
ment seems to have lost bancroft the
confidence and cooperation OF GER
tain element In the committee OF
fifty. Certainly the ID. u. r. had no
use for him. although he did his level
best to give both sides the squarest
possible deal"
Mr.. Abner z. Larned was host OF
the company of professional and busi.
ness men who met Mr.. Bancroft.
