Dead Towns Awaken.

Dead towns of the West are coming
to life as q result of the silver boom.
There were towns In Colorado and Ne
vada and Arizona, which, under the in
fiuence of silver In those days after
the Civil war. burst into wild. rich life
that has no parallel In history.
Clouds of dust are rising along the
trails that lead across sagebrush
plains. The mining engineer, present
day successor of the prospector and
his burro, is astir in the silver coun-
try.
They are going back to the old
shafts that yielded wealth when silver
was above dollar. With the advance
in mining processes In the last four
decades the chances of profits are
many times multiplied.
