20 ft. The ore is principally a
sulphide, but is more or less
shattered and oxidized, and
plates well. The ore is taken
out of the east drift of the main
adit, and seems to follow a fault
plane that crosses the vein at this
point. 1t looks like this shoot
would extend for some distance.
The main adit is now in over
600 it,, and crosses the Black
Champion vein at $50 ft. at the
point where the east drift is run.

LARGE ORE BODIES in SIGHT
Development Work Shows
Up Well.

The Penn-Dixie Gold Mining
Company own eight claims. on
the south side of Crooked creek,
about mile south of Dixie.
The claims all join, and are well
situated. The company u is a
Bradford, Pa, corporation and

driven. The No. 1 tunnel is IN
$50 ft. with a 90 fit. back, and
exposes a body of high grade ore
a ft. wide. The No. 2 tunnel is
in 700 fit. and is connected with
the surface and No. 1 tunnel by
raises. The No. 1 raise was
driven up 85 it,, then a drift was
run SO ft. west, all is ore, aver
aging about three feet in width.
The second raise was put up 400
ft. from the portal. This raise
is in the second ore shoot, and is
of the same character of ore,
and averages about $40. The
face of No. 2 tunnel has a depth
of 225 ft. This tunnel is on a
level with the ore bins at the
mill, and what ore that has been
milled was taken from this tun-
mel.
The No. 8 or main working
tunnel is now IN 6OO It,, and Will
have depth of 400 ft.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflaned condition of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
tiammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever !;
nine cases out of 10 are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in

sion today ordered a reduction of one
third in freight and passenger rates
between White Horse and Skagway.
The judgment settles for the time be-
ing the long-standing dispute between
the railway and the Dawson board of

roads charges were exorbitant.
AS the road operates in Canadian
and American territory, it is possible
that the Jurisdiction of the Canadian
commission will be questioned, and
the case will be carried btfore the
proposed international commerce

Santa Cruz, Calf, Jan. 14.-With
the water above the highest point
reached since 1892, the San Lorenzo
river left its banks today and, scat
tering over the surrounding country,
threatened serious damage A large
area of land in the lower part of the
city was covered with several inches
of water. One or two cellars were
flooded, but no great damage was re-
ported.
Unless there is a break in the
downpour serious damage from
floods will be done according to re-
ports reaching here from points fur
ther south. The Salinas river, de-
spite its width, is reported danger
ously near the top of its banks, and
fear of an overflow is causing author
tiles to patrol the levies protecting
the towns along its banks.
The river is choked with sand
there having been no preliminary
showers to wash out its bed.
Carmel river is said to be swollen
above high water mark.
The floods are not expected to con-
tinue more than day or two, as
there is no snow on the mountains to
be melted.
In 1892 this section of the country
suffered seriously from floods but at
that time the rains came after and
not before the first snowfall.
