SHORT COURSE FOR
 MINERS TO RESUME
 AT THE UNIVERSITY
Work Will Reopen at Tucson Institution on October 3O- Plan Adopted Last Year
 Will Be Changed in Detail.

The short course for miners at the Der 30th. Last year the short course
 was initiated upon a new plan-two weeks were devoted to every subject
 given, each subject relating directly to the one preceding and following it.
 This year the arrangement will be
 somewhat different. Last year the first six weeks were devoted to blow pipe analysis, mineralogy and elemen- tary geology, and it was found that al- most all students attended the three courses. Hence, this year from Octo- Der 30th to December these three subjects will be given simultaneously. The same applies to field geology, as- saying and metallurgy courses, the Notation and the miners courses.
 The object of these courses is to give the working men of the state an opportunity of attending the universi- ty for short period, in order to get in concentrated form information and training that will enable them to bet ter their own positions. To many of these men practical knowledge has formed the major part of their edu- cation, while the fundamental princi- pies on which their practical work depends is unknown to them. Because a man knows many minerals is pre- cisely the reason why he should take a course in mineralogy. Many of our prospectors know much geology, but it is surprising what the past has re- vealed in the short course in geology. The University is organized to reach people and to serve the people, and the short course is one of its many ways of so doing.

MEAT CAUSE OF
 KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take a glass of Salts if your Back hurts or Bladder bothers-Meat forms
 uric acid.

If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted au- thority who tells us that meat forms | uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken, then you suffer with dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment. the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night.
 To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush of the body's urinOus waste get four ounces of lad Salts from any pharma- cy here; take a tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine. so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure. and makes a delightful efferves- cent lithia-water drink. Advertisement

RAPID DEVELOPMENT.

One of the remarkable things about the United Ari zona is its rapid development. The company ganized about six months ago, and in the short time since has financed its operations sunk its shaft depth of 70 feet and its first considerable dis tance. The policy of the company is to push the de velopment rapidly as possible. They will sink the reach the permanent water level the 400 foot depth and if delayed should reach around the first of the year. The mine is equipped with all necessary machn cry and has two shifts working every day. The stock holders rest assured that every effort will be put forth to place the mine paying basis pos sble.

\ GOOD PERFORMANCES

Last Tuesday was pretty cold day for a tent show and so the attendance at the Cole Brothers circus was not very large. Those who remained away on account of the wealth CT, however, missed good performance. Every feature of the show was up to standard while many features were bet ter than most shows offer. The tight wire work was particu- larly strong and it was not easy to believe that this perform ance was real. It seemed as if it might easily be legerde- main which deceived the sen ses. Some of the witnesses did doubt the genuineness of the performances and undertook to explain the marvellous feats on the taut wire by assuming some hidden mechanical devic- es to help the performers. In reality the performances are a tribute to the patient persistent work by the actors who have finally acquired wonderful skill in balancing themselves on the wire and performing the marvellous feats. No better work has been seen by any.
 The aereal exhibition of the Whitties was unique and very thrilling. The spectators were on edge lest the teeth by which the performers were suspend ed should give way and let them fall. It was a remark able performance. The strong men, the Berne Bros., were just as strong as advertised. If they are not the strongest men on earth, they will have no competitors.
 With favorable conditions, it is easy to believe that the Cole Brothers Shows would easily prove themselves unexcelled in the world.

or 80 per cent. in preferred stock, to
be provided for in the proposed re-
organization. The stockholders will
now have a definite and tangible
equity, in place of a speculative one in
the whole properties. The opinioa
was fairly generally expressed that
the sale of the Hampton group has
solved a troublesome situation. There
was very decidedly happy feeling
noticeable among some of the officials,
for they feel that the organization
recently determined upon, has met
with a fortunate turn. The original
plan of refnancing, which plan pre-
ceded the plan to sell the Hampton
group, is now abandoned
At the meeting today about $10,-
100000 of the $13,0OO,0O0 stock was
represented. There was some slight
opposition to the sale, but the opposi-
ton did not serve to prevent the ma
terialization of the plan. The Parker
Cotton Mills company, which for
some time has been in more or less
embarrassed circumstances, is now
regarded as being on a splendid foot

about 5 o'clock FIRE was discovered in
the rear of p. B. O'Dell's livery stable
and in a few moments it was seen the
business part of town was doomed,
for in two whole blocks not shingle
escaped the flames, every house
therein having been completely de-
stroyed. The most prominent estab-
lishments affected by the fire were
those Of C. H. Cooper company,
Glena-Lowry Manufacturing company,
Miller Bros, J. c. Settler and DR..
Hilton, all of whom had large capital
and did imense business. The firms
carried insurance but not sufficient to
cover losses
Among the burned buildings was
the postofhce, but the postmaster,
David Duncan, saved all the mail and
important papers and letter boxes.
BY the afternoon the pcstofice was
fitted up in the hotel building.
A dozen or more small merchants
managed to save their goods. The
calamity is so shocking the victims
of the fire have not yet decided what
to do except the Glenn-Lowry COM
pany, which will build at once, and do
business on larger scale than ever.
P. B. O'Dell had no insurance and
lost all his vehicles, a fine horse and
much forage.
There are only two. stores now in
Whitmire, that of A. j. Holt and

This is the only fire of consequence
to occur.in this prosperous town. 1t

of fire is unknown, butt supposed to
have been caused by a careless negro

PARKER COMPANY
WILL SELL MILLS
Eight Big Plants to Be Disposed OF
Making Safe Basis for
All.

Greenville, May 1.-THE directors
and stockholders of the Parker Cot
ton Mills company decided at meet
ing held today to complete the nego-
tiations for the sale of the eight cot
ton mills, comprising the Hampton
group, one of the subsidiaries of the
Parker company. The purchasers are
Lockwood, Greene and company, OF
Boston. 1t is understood, though no
such statement was made at the
meeting today, nor after the meeting.
that the Pacific Mills company desires
the four Columbia plants. The selling
price was somewhat under the $3,-
100000 agreed upon recently by the
stockholders as a minimum price.
However, there are certain features
of the sale which tend to Offset the
discrepancy in price The offer which
was accepted, was the first and O. .ly
offer made to the Parker Cotton Mills
company.
The mills of the Hampton group
will be delivered June 26. The Park
er Mills company is to have posses
sion of all stock manufactured prior
to that time. The profits anticipated
will bring the selling price up to near
the figure recently agreed upon.
The transaction is to be practically
cash. Officials of the Parker Cotton
Mills company appeared pleased at
the sale. The Victor and Monaghan
groups will now be placed on firm
footing and will enjoy credit as
good as could be desired, according
to statements made. The debt per
spindle. will be reduced TO figure
that is easily manageable. The pur-
chasers agree to take care of all con-
tracts made by the Parker Mills COM
pany. The net debt of the Victor and
Monaghan groups will not now
amount to more than about 100000.

which were consumed by the fire, are
being rebuilt.
Some of the buildings will be ready
for occupancy within the next 40 or
so days, possibly before, and there
will be new town out and out. Mrs.
NJ. W. Meetze, proprietress of the
Meetze hotel, is undecided as to
whether she will rebuild on her splen-
did site or not. She was among the
very heaviest losers, having had but
a very limited amount Of insurance,
and to begin over now would meal
the expenditure of large sum. r. L.
Hollowell, of Columbia, president of
the Lexington Trading company, will
most likely commence the construc-
ton of building on the Roof corner
where a big two-story wooden build
ing stood Dr.. Rice B. Harmon will
also commence the erection of
chain of. buildings on the Harmon
property just opposite the Harmon
Drug company, where the handsome
residence of his father stood and
where the building of the Lexington
Dispatch was located. No residence.
however, will be built ON this splen-
did site.
In addition to the business houses
going up, Capt. Chas. H. Kelso, Of
Cleveland, Ohio, is now completing
two of the most handsome residences
of the bungalow type ever seen in
this section of the State. T. C. CALI
son. president of the Lexington Board
of Trade and one of the most success
full young attorneys of Lexington,
closed a deal last week for the five
acre tract on College Hill, formerly
the old Hendrix property. Mr.. CALI
son will improve the property, erect
ing a handsome residence and other
buildings, which will make the west
ern residence section one Of the most
attractive and desirable localities lii
the town.
