Many Driven From Homo,

Every year, in many parts of the country, thousands are driven from their homes by coughs and lung diseases. Friends and business are left behind for other climates, but this is costly and not always sure. A better way-the way of multitudes-is to use Dr.. Kings New Discovery and cure yourself at home. Stay right there, with your friends, and take this safe medicine. Throat and lung troubles find quick relief and health returns. It's help in coughs, colds. grip, croup, whooping. cough and sore lungs make it a positive blessing. soc and 1.OOs. Trial bottle free. Guaran- teed by H. H. Watkins,

Dumps Will be
 Worked for Wolfra mite,

E. G. Wagner, president of the Tip top Heath Mining Company, who ar rived in the city yesterday, stated that the new plant had been started up on 8 tryout of the machinery, and good results were given. The treating of the dumps that aggregate many thou. sand tons of silver and wolframite ores will begin immediately, and the plant will be run to it's full capacity of twenty-five tons per day.
 For the present, mine work will be suspended, the accumulation of ores from late development being sufficient to keep the mill going for many months to come. Very much interest is attending the revival of this famous old silver producer from the fact that the output of the pioneer days contains a heavy percentage of wolframite, which was left on the dumps, the metal having DO value at that time, and being used in but small quantities for commercial purposes, The Iiptop will be the first property in the south. west which will be operated on a strict line of recovering this metal, and with which is associated good sil- yer values. Mir. Wagner IS optimistic over the outlook. Journal. Miner.

El Pasoans Develop
 Mine in Arizona.

A Johnson dispatch says:-One of the promising properties in the John- son mining camp is that group of min- ing claims owned by the Peacock Cop per Mining company. This consists of l7 mining claims, covering an area of 33O acres, in the very heart of the camp adjoining the properties of the Arizona United, the Johnson Develop ment, the Keystone, and Centurion Mining companies, on the south and west, and lying In the strike of the rich zones of copper that course through the Peabody and Black Prince on the northwest.
 The Johnson Dragoon and Northern railroad, owned by the Southern Pa cific Railroad company, runs 40O0 feet through the full length of the prop erty, passing within 300 feet of the main work shaft. Most of the stock. holders are Fl Pasoans, such as J. I, Hewitt, John Sorenson, J. E. Bennett, c. E. Holmbo F. M. Filler, A. H. Anderson, R. l.. Nichols, w. s. Me- Math and others.
 A. c. Vein, of Johnson and several people of Bisbee are also inter ested. H. L. Marmion, of San Antonio, min ing engineer, has charge of the prop erty and is meeting with great success and is putting it on shipping basis. For the past year he has been con- tlnuously working the property with a small force of miners and will now increase the force.
 There is over 500 feet of develop. ment work completed, consisting of one shaft l1O feet deep and another lS4 feet deep together with over 200 feet of drifts and crosscuts. All this work has been prosecuted on a cash basis. MT. Marmion is so confident of the success of the property that he has devoted hls whole time and attention to it's management for the first year without any salary.
 The recent purchase of the control of the Centurion mining properties, adjoining the Peacock mines on the south by the American Metals Co.,, of New York is an event of great im. portance to this camp, as it is the pur- pose of this company to prosecute de- velopment on large scale. The drift which has passed through 300 feet of shipping ore and also through barren ground has recently come into more ore. This is on the 625 foot level, just above the water level, below which lies the unoxldized zone of secondary enrichment.

When the Canyon
 Poured Out Gold.

J. H. Weaver came up from his ranch on the Colorado rlver to vote Tuesday. Although strong, vigor- ous man, MT. Weaver is one of our "oldest inhabitants'', having first been on the river as long ago as 1869, when he had the contract for carrying the mail from Hardyville, above Fort Mo- have, in Arizona, to St. George, Utah.
 MT. Weaver can tell some interest. ing history about thls section in the early days. According to hls story the right of franchise must have been valued much more years ago than it is now, as in 1872 there were over 300 votes cast at Hardyville, some of the voters coming over 30 miles. and of those 300 or more. Mr. Weaver, SO far as he knows, is the sole remaining survivor. At that time the population of this part ot Clark county (then Lln- coln) was nll. There were few peo. pie at Elderado Canyon, a few at Las Vegas, and large number in and around Pioche.
 Speaking of Eldorado Canyon, Mir. Weaver has been there off and on for forty odd years, and during the boom days, in the sos, worked there for several years. Along with many oth- CTS who are familiar with the Canyon and it's past, MT. Weaver is firmly of the opinion that some day it will again come into it's own. The mines there have not been worked out, nor have they played out, and the figures he give, of past production in his time there are startling. although undoubt. edly correct. When the big mines there were worked, nothing less than sos ore would pay, and yet these prop critics were worked steadily for years at profit. He tells about one shoot in the Techaticup that was over two feet wide and from which over 600 tons of ore was taken that averaged ZOOS or more in gold and silver, while punches of ore that ran 30OS in gold and carried 700 ounces of silver were taken out. Another stope of ore was worked on for years, 10 or 15 stamp mill being kept in operation on it., that averaged 70S ton and was about six feet wide. These properties have never been prospected at any great depth, little dead work having been done by the present owners, they hay. ing been content with working out what ore was in sight and then allow ing the properties to stand idle. It is doubted if even Goldfeld could show such large tonnage of so high.grade ore. Senator Hearst, father of the present w. R. Hearst, was the owner of a mine in the Canyon which he sold for 3O,0OOS, and from which the buyers took out nice little stake.
 MT. Weaver, although conservative, says that while many of the stories concerning the production of the Can yon are exaggerated, he puts the pro- duction of the Techaticup mine alone at not less than a million and a half, although not all this was taken out by the same owners.-Searchlight Bulle- tin.

Horn Properties
 Being Developed.

M. H. Horn was in the city the mid. dle of the week. MT. Horn has been interested in inning properties in the Turtle mountains for number of years. At the present time the Sena- tor w. A. Clark interests have the property bonded and are working 2 small force of men. A larger force of men and machinery will be at work shortly now that the heated season is over. The property has good surface showing and with the work that Mr. Horn has done upon the property during the years in which he has owned it he has sufficiently developed it to warrant the expenditure of con- siderable amount of money in further development work. The Clark inter- ests undoubtedly believe the property will become good producer. A pro. ducing mine in that district will great ly assist the mining industry in this section of the country and cause the expenditure of more money for de- delopment upon other properties Needles Eye.
