BORIS BUYS BRYANS'
 NEWSPAPER INTERESTS

The interests of Mark H. Bryan and JO. x. Bryan in the Oatman Miner have been purchased by c. W. Boris, who is now owner of the controlling interest in the newspaper, so much than mere control, in fact, that he is virtually the sole"owner, with one or two small blocks of stock of the com pany held by other parties.
 MT. Boris is a young man of ex- ceptiOnal rustling qualities and filled with enthusiasm for 0atman and its great mining resources. He has worked harder than anybody inagines to put this place on the map and as a news gatherer he has few superiors in Ari- zona. He graduated into the newspa- per business as a paper seller on the streets of New York and is purely a product of hard knocks and anything but the easy side of life. He came here from Los Angeles where he worked as local reporter and financial writer, founding the Oatman Miner. The Bryans came later with the linO- type and equipment, soon joining forces with Boris.
 Mark Bryan was the first male child born on the old ComstOck, hay ing arrived there in 1860 during the days of Mark Twain and the old eel ebrities of frontier history. He has lived in various mining camps, and with his brother founded the first newspaper at Rawhide. Both are ex- ceptionally capable newspaper men and printers.
 Poor health of Mark Bryan caused the sale. They left Oatman yester- day afternoon.

LID IS SUDDENLY
 GLAMPED IN CAMP

Oatman was closed up yesterday tighter than a drum, with the lid on and clamped down tightly, long before the time set for such to happen by a prohibitionist who was quoted in yes terday's issue as saying that the peo- ole would do that service at the next election. Just how it happened is not so very much of a mystery, for every body knows that the grand jury IS getting busy and is liable to let some thing drop. Yesterday, from morning until night, it was impossible to buy a bottle fbeer or a drink of any bottle of beer or a drink of any of the "blind pigs" or accustomed places along the street, from the up- per end to Mazona.
 Yet there were a few drunks in town, not as many as the previous day, but enough to show that some body had laid away a supply for a rainy day or long dry spell. In fact, right into the Daily Miner branch of fee. and as these lines were being written, came a man with a breath like a stale beer hall, and said:
 "For Gods sake haint you goin' to do something fer me, give me two-bits or somethin'."
 Like the time for all drinking men to stand together, this was one for those who sell it. Union lines, it is said, were forgotten and,, in a com mon cause against common foe, members of the Bootleggers' union helped to pass the word to the scabs to look out for the officers of the law, for it was a time to forget internal enmities and battle for a cause dear to all. It is said that the word was passed around secretly and every liquor seller, good or bad, friend or enemy, was given the benefit of the same tip.
 Prices that had fallen and were wobbly for a week before were of no avail yesterday. At the ordinary places a drink could not be bought for $20.

The work thus far done having dem onstrated the presence of extensive ore bodies in the new workings along the strike of the Bonanza vein, the Yuma Warrior Mining company is planning for more aggressive mining and milling operations. These plans include the sinking of a three-com- partment vertical shaft, and the addi- tion of concentration and Notation units to the 4O-stamp mill to reclaim the gold, silver and copper contents of the sulphide ore, as the present amalgamatiOn plant is capable of treating only the oxidized ore exposed in the upper levels.

and south, 80 feet. The pitch of this ore body is to the south. It was in the south drift on this level that cop per sulphides first made their appear ance in the mine. Cheek assays dem onstrate the ore carries about 5 per .ent copper and $S5 gold per ton AS the copper-sulphide . section lies against the footwall of the vein, di- rectly beneath the oxidized ore opened above and pitches rather flat to the southwest, the winze was sunk an ad- ditional 80 feet and the eighth level established.
 On the eighth level drifts were run north and south in the oxidized ore. One hundred feet from the station copper sulphides were again encoun- tered in the south drift. The crosscut at that point shows an ore breadth of 16 feet, with the copper-sulphide sec tion along the footwall carrying ore of the same grade as that. opened above The oxidized ore on the eighth level samples $13.9O gold per ton, and for a length of 50 feet carries gold values as high as S3S per ton. Later the drift on the seventh level was con- tinued in the oxidized portion of the vein and 90 feet from the station en- tered the same ore body that is opened on the eighth level. The cross cut there shows 10 feet of ore that gave SIP gold at the millheads. At that point a winze was sunk in ore about 40 feet, an upraise was made fro mthe eighth level to connect there with and an intermediate level estab- lished. The ore in the latter has a width of 12 feet
 The drift on the seventh level was then extended beyond the winze a length of 21O feet, giving it a total length of 300 feet For the last 25 feet the ore has gradually widened un- til it extends beyond the sides of the drift A crosscut will be run to de- termine it's breadth. Recent assays gave returns of s21.4O quicksilver per ton. This is the latest development of importance in the Harqua Hala mine, inasmueh as the drift is now being driven under the old Castle Garden" stope, from which the valuable ore tonnage before mentioned was mined.

CENTRAL SINKING

The Arizona-Central shaft at yes terday noon was down 256 feet. This is steady grind in sinking, averag- ing 36 feet a week and 150 month. By September 20 it should reach the 800, when lateral work will commence. Superintendent W. H. Hart has found no new naturalization since passing the last stringer at 250 feet.

.MANYTROUBLESDUE
TO WEAK KIDNEYS

.Tt is no use advertising medf-
cine unless the medicine itself is good
enough to back up the claims you
make for it," said Wilkinson & Co.,
the popular druggists, to Gate City
man. "On the other hand 1t is q
Measure to sell medicine when our
customers come in afterward and tell
ia how much good it has done them
And that is why we like to sell and
recommend Solvax, the great kidney
remedy. Ever since we first intro
duced Solvax in Keokuk, our clerks
have been so busy selling it that we
have hard time keeping sufficient
stock on hand. We have so much
faith in this article that we are going
to guarantee it in the future and will
return the money to any purchaser OF
Solvax whom it does not help. This
NAV seem rash but our customers
have said so many good words in its
favor that we do not expect to have
many packages returned"
This shows great faith in Solvax. It
really is most unusual medicine be-
cause it overcomes the worst cases Of
kidney complaint by removing the
cause. 1t goes straight to the seat Of
the trouble 1t soaks right In and
cleans out the kidneys and makes
them pass off all the uric acid and
poisonous waste matter that lodges in
the joints and muscles, causing rheu-
matte pains; soothes and heals the

Nothing is more uncomfortable or
