MADE A BIG STRIKE
w. II. Tate Finds Paying Ore Near
Hanging Rock in Ashland Can
yOn-GOOd Ledge.

w. H. Tate, who has been sinking
shaft near the hanging rock in
Ashland canyon, has apparently
made first-class strike. Mr.. Tate
discovered the ledge just above the
old water ditch and it assayed about
81 per ton at the surface. After pen
etrating 80 feet the ledge shows ore
which, according to assays by F. A
Norman of this city, carries $11.22
per ton. There is no question but
there is any quantity of ore in this
district that is well worth milling
and this section should have a big
mining payroll.

WILD HORSES IN COLORADO

James and Jess Mccarthy, who are
mining a copper claim above timber
line on Mount Blanca, Colorado, re-
port a herd of wild horses running
loose on the sand dunes of the I'm
comphagre range of mountains, south
west of Mount Blanca and Mosca
pass.
The McCarthys declare the hoofs of
these horses have spread out to ac-
commodate the peculiar formation of
the grounds over which they run un-
til they have attained the circumfer-
ence of dinner plates. Many other
prospectors to the mountains have
seen the horses, and peculiar story
is related concerning their presence
on the dunes, which are very rare
in vegetation. ao llg Ea5 a3
1t has been told, on good author
ity, that many years ago party of
government surveyors was sent to de-
termine the scope and character of
these dunes, and after many months
searching party was sent after the
men. The only trace of their pres
ence was a surveyors instrument,
which stood like a lonely sentinel in
the sands.

NO SLEEPlNG-BAG FOR THEM
Laplanders Preferred the Snow and
the Open Air, and So Had
Comfortable Night.

Sir Henry Lucy tells in the Corn

had from hansen, the explorer. 1t
amusingly illustrates the hardy health
of the Laplanders.

trip across Greenland consisted Of two
sleeping-bags made of undressed
skins. On the first night of the jour
ney hansen and his two Norwegian
companions got into one of the bags.
pulled the mouth tight across their
necks, and go slept in the snow with
only their heads out.
Before retiring to rest, hansen saw
the three Laplanders he had engaged
for the expedition cozily tucked into
the other sleeping-bag. When he
awoke in the morning, almost numb
with cold, he observed that the bag
in which he had tied up the Lapland-
ers was empty, and that they were no.
where in sight. He was afraid they
had deserted him, and scrambling
out of the bag he went in search of
them. He found the three men fast
asleep behind a hillock of snow that
they had scraped together as a pro-
lection against the wind.
"Ah, MASTER" they said, when ask
ed to explain this extraordinary con-
duct, 1--WE couldn't sleep in that thing.
1t was too hot, so we got out and
have had a comfortable night here"

TRAFALGAR RELIC is SAVED

After lying in the Hamoaze at Dew
onshire for over century the two
decked -battleship, Implacable.
one of the trophies which Nelson won
for the British navy, has been moved
to Falmouth, where she is to be pre-
served as a national monument. The
Implacable was originally the French
battleship. Duguay Trouin. She was
captured by the British in the wars
of over century ago, recaptured by
the French, and again surrendered
to the British at the battle of Traf-
algar. Renamed the Implacable, she
was for many years employed at De-
vonport as training ship for boys.
In 1905 the admiralty put her in the
sale list, but before the sale she was
withdrawn to preserve her. She has
been restored at Davenport as nearly
as possible to her original state.

There is the most intimate relation
between the condition of the blood and
the activity of the stomach. The blood
depends upon the. stomach for q large
part of its nourishment; while every
act of digestion, from the time the food
enters the stomach until it is digested
and assimilated by the blood, needs
plenty of pure, well-oxidized blood.
The stomach works only according to

may not lead to stomach trouble. Dis,

of indigestion. Thin, impure blood
weakens the muscles of the stomach

WHY THE MILK TURNS SOUR

Perhaps you have often wondered
why it is that if you let milk stand
for short time, especially in warm
weather. it will turn sour and be-
come unfit to use in your tea or cof-
fee; but If 1t is boiled and then sealed
up in some sort of alright can or jar,
it will keep any length of time in any
weather.
Many persons believe that a thun-
derstorm will turn milk sour, and if
you ask them what the thunder
which is nothing but noise-can do to
the milk, you will find that they have
no idea, but they just know it is so.
So there!
The reason that milk turns sour is
that it contains small microbe that
makes an acid from the sugar in the
milk When the milk is boiled these
microbes are killed, and the acid is

never developed. Warm air, and even
electricity in the air, is very favorable
to the rapid growth Of these microbes,
which are really sort of plant, and
all plants flourish in warmth. The
acid which is made by these microbes
in the milk is called Tactic acid, and
if the milk is coed and clean, it is
none the worse for turning sour, al
though it is not just the thing to put
in tea. For some persons sour milk
is a much more wholesome drink than
sweet milk, and is recommended by
some doctors for the cure of certain
diseases. There is famous Chinese

to be a hundred and fifty because he
drinks so much sour milk every day

Tea Gown Reminders.

The lowered silks can be utilized
with great charm for making the neg.

Then there is chiffon to remember.
One delightful model is made of rose
petal pink chiffon over a loose under

robe is quite without trimming, save
for tiny f1owerets made of the chiffon
bordering the turned back fronts of
