EASY AND SURE Way
TO CURE COLDS
Don't Neglect a Cold, Ely's Cream
Balm Will Stop it in the Sneez-
ing Stage.

A cold generally attacks the weak
est part, affecting the eyes and ears
in some and producing nasal catarrh
and throat troubles in others. A cold
is due to an Inflammation Of the men,
brane lining the air passages, and
may be promptly cured with little
Ely's Cream Balm, which immediate
ly relieves the Inflammation and all
the distressing symptoms, such as
sneezing, coughing, running at the
nose and eyes, hoarseness, sore throat
fever and headache. One reason why
this pure, antiseptic Balm acts so
quickly is because it is applied direct
ly to the tender, sore surfaces.
Even in severe chronic cases of ca
tarrh, Ely's Cream Balm never fails
to quickly and effectually check the
poisonous discharges which clogs the
head and throat, causing the disgust
ing hawking, splitting and blowing of
the nose. This remedy not only driv-
es out the disease, but heals and
strenthens the weakened membranes,
thus ending catarrh.
Catarrh is filthy, disgusting dis
ease. Don't put up with it another
day. Get a so cent bottle of Ely's
Cream Balm from your druggist and
see how quickly you will be relieved
1t is perfectly harmless.-Adv.

SUPREME COURT
SUSTAINS RULING
DISTRICT COURT
LITIGATION AS TO OWNERSHIP
OF PIONEER MINING CLAIMS
FINALLY DECIDED

Judge Averill and local attorneys
have received adyices that the SUI
preme court of Nevada has confirm
ed the decision OF the lower court
which settles the ownership of the
ore body upon which this mine con
solidation was built. This litigation
is Of several years duration, and
the present decision ends it for all
time The case involved the contro-
yersy between the Indiana Nevada
Mining company and the Gold Hills
Mining company, which has been alb
sorbed by the Pioneer Consolidated.
IN this suit also was originally in
VOWED about $4,000 Of production,
but this money has already gone to
the Pioneer company
The Pioneer ore body was found
almost upon the border line be-
tween what is known as the BIZ
Metallic claim and the Conservative
claim, upon which the Indiana com
pany set up an overlap ownership
upon the strength of an amended To-
cation. This amended location took
in the doubtful ground but title has
been confirmed in the Gold Hills or
the Pioneer company.
Several years ago the Gold Hills
company, which was controlled by
! William J and Richard f Tobin OF
Denver was taken over by the Pho
lneer Consolidated in connection with
the original Bullfrog Pioneer com
pany, also controlled by the Tobins.
so that the benefits of the Gold Hill
victory come to the Tobin brothers
and the other stockholders of the
Pioneer Consolidated.
With all the litigation at an end
involving the Pioneer Consolidated
estate there is nothing now to stand
in the way of heavy operations on
the property Adyices from Pioneer
are to the effect that all the differ
ent parts of the machinery lost in
/ the recent fire have been received
az the mine and are being put in
place. The mine has been thor.
oughly sampled and the assay map
shows immense bodies all ready for
the mill There is nothing definite
given out in regard TO mill con
struction, but it is known that the
officers Of the Pioneer Consolidated
have always had plans of treating
their ore on the ground.
The Conservative Mining & Leas
ing company. operating the old TeS
Richard lease on the Pioneer Con
solidated estate. is developing bis
ore tonnage of mill dirt The leas
ing company recently cut into Z
streak of high-grade ore and Will
development this streak has opened
up into a five-foot body of ore aver
aging from 81 to $40 per ton. The
opening of this ore and the develop
ment of the same further increases
, the enormous mill tonnage developer
I in the Pioneer estate, and is bu
another proof that a mill of larg'
capacity is needed by the company
