MINING ENGINEERS
 CONSULT WITH MEN
 OF THE NAVAL BOARD
In An Effort to Increase Efhci- ency and Life of Guns Ma. val Experts Will Talk to Mine Engineers.

NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-In an effort to increase the efficiency and life of guns constructed for the U. s. Gov ernment members of the Naval Con- sulting Board will, during the next two weeks, meet with the American institute Of Mining Engineers for dis cussion of an important phase of this subject The meeting will be in con nection with the 114th convention of the Institute to be held in New York during the week of February 18th and officers of the Army and Navy, gov ernment representatives and other eX- perts will be in attendance.
 The special subject to be discussed deals with the erosion of guns. or the hardening of the inner surface of the gun tube, a problem which is at pres ent seriously engaging the attention of many of the country's leading sci entists. The discussion will be open ed with a paper by Dr. Henry Fay, of the Massachusetts Institute of Tech ntlOSss NulCu Huptl NdS PA Atpdi Ou from a series of tests of metals made at the Watertown arsenal, and which is one of the technical papers at the forthcoming convention.
 A committee of the Naval Consult ing Board. headed by Dr Hudson Maxim, will be present at the Mining Engineers session and discuss the sub iect. after which the Committee will hold meeting with technical experts in the rooms of the American Insti- tute of Mining Engineers.
 The entire Naval Consulting Board has been invited to attend the meet ing of the Institute and in view of the great interest aroused in this subject it is believed that the coming meeting will rank in importance with any in the forty-siX years of the Institutes history About five hundred mining engineers from all parts of the coun- try will attend

DRINK WATER ID
 AVOID SICKNESS
 SAYS AUTHORITY
Glass of hot water before breakfast daily keeps the
 doctor away.

i Sanitary science has of late made rapid strides with results that are of untold blessing to humanity. The lat est application of it's untiring research is the recommendation that it is as necessary to attend to internal sanita- tion of the drainage system of the hu- man body as it is to the drains of the house.
 i Those of us who are accustomed to 7 feel dull and heavy when We arise, slitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue. nasty breath, acid stom- ach, can. instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous 1 stagnant matter.
 Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning before | breakfast. drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspOonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stom- ach, liver and bowels the previous poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more | food into the stomach. The action Of | hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully in- vigorating. It cleans out all the sour Concentrations. gases, waste and acid ity and gives one a splendid appetite ! for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphated hot water is quietly extracting a large vol ume of water from the blood and get ting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs.
 The millions of people who are both cred with constipation, bilious spells. stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness; others who have sallow skins, blood | disorders and sickly compleXions are urged to get quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from the drug store. This will cost very little, but is suffi- cient to make anyone a pronounced
 crank on the subject of internal san itation. (AdvertisemenO

P-JSRAFT IS NOW INTO WHITE IRON
Superintendent Believes That Body of Copper Ore Lies Below; Drifting Will Be Started from 300 Level.

JEROME. Feb t7.-An unexpected and probably important change has taken place in the Pittsburg-Jerome shaft.
 At a depth of SS6 feet the shaft is in white iron with a little copper stain. White iron is regarded as a splendid indication of copper.
 It was not expected that anything of importance would be disclosed by the shaft itself Superintendent C. C. Arrata is much encouraged by the present showing. He regards it as certainty that there is a big body of copper under the iron.
 The plan of development is to sink the shaft to a depth of 900 feet and then crosscut southward to get under a lime contact and iron blowout, be- tween 600 and 700 feet distant.
 The south crosscut from the 500-foot level is being continued to tap this same blowout and the face is now GOO feet from the shaft. Within a short time a winze will be started on the copper showing which appeared in the bottom of the crosscut last sum- mer. 900 feet from the shaft
 Superintendent ATTata returned a few days ago from Pittsburg. where he went to confer with the directors of the PittsburgJerome. He says he was given a. royal welcome and be- came more firmly convinced than ev- CT that the directors, all of whom are wealthy men, will never quit until they have a mine 1t was only few months ago that the directors raised S100.0O0 among themselves to cOntin- ue operations along the lines laid out, and most of this sum is still in the treasury.
 Arrata saw C. R. Ballard, who was here several months as field manager for the Pittsburg-Jerome. Ballard ex- poets to pay the camp another visit shortly
