There is a 150-fOOt shaft and from the bottom of this is drift 800 feet, this being the extent in length of the ore shoot. At this time J. w.. and E.

Some water makes on the 150 level, and here the sulphides come in. There is found in this property black oxide, chaleonyrite. chalcoeite and native. The property had been in desultOry operation for several years until MT. O'Brien took it over, since when it has been developed systematically and with good judgment. It has all the appearance of a good profit, an especially interesting and encouraging feature being the sulphides so close to the surface.

peet soon to reach the oxidized zone.
 The property is reached by fine road, there is plenty of excellent water close at hand. The outlook is very excellent for Camp B, and as the ownership rests in a man of means development will continue till proper for milling plant when it will be in stalled.
 The College property consists of four full claims a short distance from the Monte Cristo, fifteen miles from Wiekenburg, and is principally owned by F. B. Jacobs. There is an SO-foot shaft, and from this considerable ore was shipped, paying well. From the bottom there is a drift, in good ore. The ore occurs in a 20-fOOt tissure, and this maintains stability the length of three claims, the outerop being very prominent always and in some places it stands 20 feet above the surface. It is a pOrphyry ledge tra- versing the granite in a northwest southeaset direction. The ore on the hanging wall averages up to $14 per ton; the entire average of copper con- tent is above l4 per cent copper, and the ore shipped went $40 gold, 141a per cent copper, F per cent iron. There are probably 150 tons of this material on the dump. Work is to be forwarded during the winter. There are several other openings on the property, all making good showing, and it is evident that greater develop ment and depth will make this prop erty worth while.

It was working a small force up to the first of September, since when ''nothing doing" It is owned by the Arizona Mines company, a Boston corporation, and Mark Bradley of Prescott is general manager and agent; ].

The vein filling is Yavapai sehist; there is some gneiss. Carbonates are here and some glance. The porphyry is extensive, and at one place in the mine they cut 52 feet of ore. It is a good prospect and warrants getting greater depth.

WOMAN SEIZED FROM JAWS OF
 DEATH
(From Tuesdays Daily

(FrOm Tuesdays Daily
 It is a dangerous plan to keep all the family remedies in one chest and to open that chest in a dark room and attempt to assimilate the first drug that comes to your hand.
 That Mrs. c. G. Rivera is alive this morning is due to the solieitude of all of the neighbors, an excited call for help over the telephone and a fast speeding automobile which brought a physician to the scene with in a short space of time after she had taken what might have been a fatal dose of poison.
 About s o'clock last evening Mrs. Rivera, who lives at 209 North Gran ite street, went to the family medi- cine chest to procure a block of mag nesia which she thought would be of great benefit to her health. She found the magnesia but failed to note that a bottle of earbOlie acid which was in the same box had lost it's cork and the magnesia was thorough ly impregnated with the deadly poison.
 Her first bite failed to warn her or the presence or the pOlSOn put the burning sensation which accompanied her second taste of the harmless look ing magnesia convinced her that she was partaking of deadly poison. Suit ing action to the occasion she gave vent to a series of very healthy screams for help which succeeded in arousing all of that section of North Granite street Within a few minutes a physician was on hand and the n ministration of copiOus draughts of water and a powerful emetie soon brought the unfortunate woman out of danger.
 The Riveras have been having more than their share of hard luck of late. About eight months ago Rivera, while sleeping in a tent at the ball park, was struck in the head by a rifle bullet, fired, perhaps thOughtlessly by some marksman, and has been paral- yzed on his entire right side ever since.
 Mrs. Rivera will be about today but the family compendium of use less and dangerous medicines will be 1elegated to the city dump.

stream sufficient to carry forward plaeering operations on any feasible scale would cost too much and pre- elude a profit. There are innumer- able dam sites, though, and these water. The Lotowana people will have their first dam in commission before Christmas, and it may be a considerable time before; for if they work as fast as they are doing, and meet no hindrances, it will take but a few weeks to have plenty of water for every purpose.
 Kellis is going to put two dry placer machines at work during this Tom plant to test the wash I have taken over (and this is the first time I have taken hold of anything like this in the southwest; but this looks too good to pass up; at Sylvanite there was a big boom, as all will re- member, but I did not care to have anything of it. nor at COurtland- but here at LotOwana I did want a small slice and got it, and of course I'm like all the others, in that l think it is the best of alp; two dry washers are to be set up for testing purposes in a small guleh back of Brills; Mexicans are on the ground now in the big Brill wash, to sink numbers of test pits to bedrock. This is the extent of the actual oper- ations. Of course Sanger is going ahead as fast as men and teams can do it with the Lotowana project.
 Monarch Machinery
 The first shipment of machinery for the new Monarch mill has been started forward, and will be at this point within a few days. There is great activity at the Monarch. Man ager Akin has rebuilt about seven miles of wagon road in order that his machinery and other supplies may be hauled in at reasonable cost. A force of men is now at work at the millsite. There is here a small mill, but it is to be enlarged to 100 tons. Miners will begin work tomorrow on two faces in the mine. MT. Akin has determined on an unique plan for ex- traeting ore. %as he will stope 1t down from two tunnel levels, thus eeOnO- mieally handling. The openings are all in such position that ore will go to the mill by gravity. The mill will easily be operating before Christmas. A semi-pyrite smelter will be install ed almost immediately after the com pletion of the mill.
 It is stated in Wiekenburg that an- other, large placer mining company is being formed to operate a eonsid- erable area in proven ground. It is stated that these people will at once begin the systematic testing of their ground, have surveys made and begin excavating for the dam site, which it is said will save 1OO,0OO,0O gallons of water. This company is composed, it is stated. of a number of experi- enced mining men, and that they do not need to go outside for funds to operate. Their operations will com menee within a few days, and the probabilities are, it is stated, that they will be operating on a good scale by the first of the veal.
 The VultuTa is putting on a larger force of. men for underground opera tions on a large scale. The under ground force has been somewhat meager for some months past, or during the sinking of the winze from the TOO level, but now operations are to go forward on a much larger scale.

A GREAT ENCAMPMENT
Company L of This City Made Good
Showing and Received High Praise
From the Officers of
the Regiment.

Today camp is being broken by the
Fifty-fourth Iowa Regiment at Camp
Bishop near Ottumwa and Company l.
will reach home some time tomorrow.
OF the closing of camp the Ottumwa
Courier of Tuesday says:
Tomorrow morning at o'clock the
beginning of the end of one of the
Fifty-fourth regiment of the Iowa ma
tional guard, will take place at Camp
Bishop in Wildwood countryside. At
that hour the little tented city, which
has afforded such great pleasure to
the populace of Ottumwa and surround
ing towns, and has proven such an eS.
cellent school of military education to
the six hundred militiamen will begin
to move and by evening there will be
hardly a trace of the presence of the
army that VIII have passed ten days
of military life there. There will be
nothing left when the last load of the
regimental equipment leaves the place
as all trash and debris that accumulat-
ed day by day was carried away as
last as it could be collected, LEAVING
the camp clean and neat in every re-
spect. Aside from ground worn bare
by the tread of many feet. Wildwood
countryside will be left just as it was
found by the militiamen upon their ar
rival. The twelve companies will be-
gin their homeward march to their re-
spective garrisons, at the conclusion
of the breaking of camp, to remain,
unless duty calls them, until a year
has passed and the time for the next
annual encampment rolls around.
Breaking camp and its attributiye
branches is equally as interesting as
the setting up of the tented city,
which many people witnessed and al
though the hour of departure is early,
many visitors are expected to attend
this feature of Camp Bishop
Although the labors of the militia
men have been strenuous every day
of the encampment, Camp Bishop has
proven to be one of the most success
full of the regimental camps, to the
great pleasure of Colonel Howell, his
staff of officers and the companies OF
militiamen. The problems wherein
the soldiers gained their taste of the
hardships of warfare were made the
more successful by the excellence of
the surrounding territory, rolling with
hills and heavily wooded. thus giving
the militiamen great opportunity to
perform all the maneuvers of adyan-

tage in gaining a position where their
attack on the enemy would be most
forceful. Everything has worked to
the success of Camp Bishop.
The training of Iowa's guardsmen,
the purpose of the encampment has
been carried out to the best advantage
in every department and the ten days
in actual military work, both in camp
and afield will prove invaluable to
them. The majority of the men in the
regiment follow lines of work that
are not the best producers of hardi-
hood and should the military side of
the camp be eliminated, the ten days
outing and rigorous maneuvering
would not have instilled greater
strength and health in every man.
They were out of doors the entire
time, sleeping in tents and eating the
most nourishing food, but few delica-
cies being obtainable, greater part
of these being bought by the men
themselves. 1t will be a tanned,
healthy looking regiment that leaves
the site of Camp Bishop tomorrow, all
wishing that the encampment could
be extended for another ten days.

That Is Done in

HE URGES A REFORM
Says That City Should Put Speed
Limit Signs on Roads Leading In

Street.

1.-THE Keokuk Automobile club adj

leading to sane and careful running
of cars. 1t would be wise and prudent
for pedestrians when crossing the
streets to use their eyes and see
what is coming as well as to be gaz-
ing for the airships."
Thus quoth ]. B. Van Pappelendam,
secretary of the Keokuk Automobile
club, who declares that most of the
speeding in Keokuk is done by out-of-
town drivers. According to the state
law, he says it is necessary, for the
city to put up signs regarding the
speed limit on roads leading into the
city Secretary Van Pappelendam
says:
That there is too much fast driv-
ing with automobiles on our streets
is not questioned l think, however,
most of these high speeds are caused
by out of town cars. As understand
our state law it would be useless to
make any arrest for the violation of
the speed limits in our city unless
the city post up notices of the speed
limits on all roads entering the city.
There is no doubt some few Of our
citizens who drive cars at a higher
rate of speed than is permissible for
the safety of the pedestrians. We
should remember life once gone can
never be replaced The damage that
may occur to the colliding vehicles
can be replaced but life cannot !

Senator Jones was scheduled to be
in Nauvoo on Friday also, but this
place has been scratched because of
necessary repairs to the automobile in
which the trip is being made. Nauvoo
cannot be reached by train and it was
found necessary to abandon the run.

bright and early in Rushville, the
hour being 900, o'clock. One hour
and half later he will be in Angus
Ia. The first stop in the afternoon
Is Warsaw at 300 o'clock. A big
turn out is expected in that place
where people appear to be enthused
over his coming. At 800 o'clock he
will be in Hamilton.
What promises to be the largest
gathering of the day will be at Car
thage in the evening at 500 O'Clock.
Carthage being the county seat, was
given the benefit of the evening hour.
The public. including both the men
and women, are invited to be present
and hear presentation of progressive
republican principles.
