|NSPECTOROF MINES
MAKES ANNUAL
REPORT

Below is printed Phoenix dis
patch giving the substance of find
ings made by Mine Inspector Bolin,
in the course of conduct of his Of
fee. Mr.. Bolin gives the number of
men employed by the producing min
ing companies in their mines as
practically $4,000. This figure is
gathered, doubtless, from the time
sheets of the companies. 1t does
employed by the smaller concerns,
nor as the report states, include pros
pectors working small properties.
AS the report indicates, there are
probably 5000 more miners than the
$4,000 indicated at work in the state.
Besides these there are at least
10000 more men employed in the
concentrators, mills and shelters in
the State and on the railroads oper-
ated by mining companies to serve
their mines and their reduction
works Thirty thousand men en-
ployed in the mining industry and it's
branches in Arizona therefore seems
a conservative estimate at the begin
ming of the year:
PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 6.-More
men are employed in the mines of
Arizona and the general condition of
the industry is far more satisfactory
than it ever was before, according to
the annual report of G. H. Bolin,
state mine inspector.
Bolin and his deputies, William
Farrell, John Harper and ]. C. Wilson
made 266 inspections of "a mines
during the year The total number
of men employed in those mines is
1898, of which 1864 are above
ground and 11,269 below. They are
divided among the counties as fol-
lows:
Cochise, 4,44S; ella, 2,45S; Graham,
So; Greenlee, 3,133; Maricopa, 159;
Mohave, 1926: Pima, 1T; Pinal, 1886;
Santa Cruz, 1888; Yavapai, 9O7; Yuma,
1879.
This by no means tells the story,
however. Scattered throughout the
state are a mum Der of small prospects
worked by the owners and, in some
cases, two or three men, which have
never been inspected.
There is no way for the inspector
and his deputies to find mines that
are operating except to go out and
look for them No provision in the
law requires that persons or compan-
les operating mines report to the in
spector's office. In his next report
Bolin will recommend to the leg1s-
lature that the law be amended to re-
filed in his office thirty days before
the actual commencement of work.
1t is naturally impossible to secure
accurate figures on the number of
men employed but it is safe to say
that four or five thousand more men
than enumerated are actually en-
gagged in mining in Arizona.
During the year &c men were
killed in Arizona mines and there

HOMES OF WOMEN WRECKED By
THE INVADERS.
Women deserve q better fate.

American women are better of
than their European sisters in most
respects. Our American girls, how
ever, are of highly nervous Organiza-
ton and usually suffer from troubles
peculiar to their sex.
When girl becomes a woman,
when woman becomes mother,
when women pass through the chan
iods of life when health and strength
are most needed to Withstand the pain
and distress often caused by severe
organic disturbances.
At these critical times women are
best fortified by the use of DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, an old
remedy of proved worth that keeps
the entire female system perfectly
regulated and in excellent condition.
Mothers, if your daughters are
weak, lack ambition, are troubled
with headaches, lassitudes, and are
pale and sickly, DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription is just what they need
to surely bring the bloom of health
to their cheeks and make them strong
and healthy.
For all diseases peculiar to woman
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
a powerful restorative. During the
last 40 years it has banished from
the lives Of tens of thousands of wo-
men the pain, worry, misery and dis
tress caused by irregularities and
diseases of feminine character.
If you are sufferer, if your
daughter, mother, sister needs help
get DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton in liquid or tablet form at any
medicine dealers today. Then ad-
dress DR.. Pierce, Invalid's Hotel, Buff
falo, N. Y, and you will receive con-
fidential advice from staff of spe-
cialists that will not cost you a
penny. Today is the day; 1876 page

Belfgerents in East
Ready to Clash.
LONG Line OF TROOPS
6erman-Austrian Forces Face
Main Russian Army.

London, Oct. 27-Reports from the
eastern front indicate that the great
est battle of the war in that area is
impending. Austria, in it's latest Of
ficial statement, makes the claim OF
having thrust strong forces across the
Carpathians in the face Of determined
resistance.
German and Austrian forces, it Is
said, have strong wall of troops
along well established line from the
northern spurs of the Carpathians be-
fore the long disputed fortress OF
Przemysl and on into the district OF
Flock.
Before this line Is arrayed the main
army of the Russians, said to have
been reinforced by troops from the
Caucasus, Siberia and Turkestan. The
Austrians claim successes in engage
ments to the northeast of Przemysl
and on the Lower San.
A French official statement says:
ITO the west of the Vistula and to
the north Of the Pilica river the Ger
mans have been forced back on
LowicZ, Skierniewice and Rawa, which
have been captured at the bayonet
point by the Russians.
Lively Engagement Fought.
ITO the south of the Pilica, in the
direction of Radon, there has been a
lively engagement between the Rus
SLAMS and the Austro-G ermans, who
lost prisoners and cannon.
"To the south of Solec the Russian
troops crossed the Vistula by main
force, driving the. Austrians back. On
the River San and to the south of
Przemysl there have occurred stub
born combats. resulting favorably to
the Russians. An Austrian column de-
bouching from the Carpathians on
Dolina Tin Galicia, twenty-five miles
to the south of Stry) was routed"
The Germans, according to Petro
grad advices, attempted to arrest the
Russian offensive movement at Sok-
hatchoff but were dislodged from their
positions with heavy losses.
A Berlin report says the Russians,
who had withdrawn most of their
troops from tLemburg, the capital of
Galicia, have sent 10000 men there to
fortify the town against the Austrian
advance In that region.
