THE SUCKER CREEK ELDORADO.
Gold In Sacks, In Cans, In Bottles and
i rvmwino- Utensils at The
Briggs Camp.
A journey by wheel to Holland and
thence by trail on foot up Sucker creek
and over the mountain brought us to
the spot which is justly entitled to be I
considered one of the wonders of the
world, says the editor of the Grants
Pass Courier.
David Briggs and his family, son-in-
law and brother, in all five men and
two ladies, are in camp bv their bonan-
za, carefully watching and guarding it
and taking out some gold from time to
lime. They are making no euori to
mine it and are rnerclv taking out a few I
slabs of gold or hau Ifc me quartz speci-
mens to pass away t p time until they
can safely deposit the treasure already
secured. They argue with reason that
the gold is safer in the ground than it is
out of it. It is one of the peculiar con-
ditions of this mine that the gold can be
taken out far more rapidly than it can I
be taken care of. The fact that they
are not working night and day on the
vein, hastwen misinterpreted by some,
who do not understand the conditions
and the report has thus got abroad that
the place is worked out. Nothing could
be further from the truth. From all
appearances thev have only just begun
to take out the gold which is lying near
the surface.
The milk pan full of gold in slabs,
which was on exhibit at a Grants Pass
bank, is only a preparation for the won
dera that greet the eye when the mine
is visited. At the Briggs tent, there is
gold in sacks, in cans and in bottles, in
the mortar, in gold pans, in tin cups and
cookinc utensils, everywhere. There
seems to be enough gold in sight around
their camn to satisfy a family for a life
time vet the inaior part of what they
hare taken oat has been cashed away.
The place where all this treasure has
been taken out, is an insignificant hole
Borne twelve feet in length, as wide as a
ledge, which seems to run from 12 to 14
inches, and from one to two feet deep.
All the excavation which has been done
could be done by one man in an hour,
though it would probably take him long
er than that to pick out the gold. Mr.
Briggs estimates that all the work which
has been done is not more than half a
day's work for one man, and the esti
mate seems a reasonable one.
The find is no "pocket." It is a true
fissure vein on a contact between cranite
and pornhvrv and is traceable for a lone
distance alone the side of the mountain.
No tests have vet been made to show
the extent of the rich Dav chnte. which
still continues both lonrftndinallv and
vertically from the excavation. The
quartz, exclusive of the seams of pure
gold, carries mining values from fS to
$20 to the ton. Gold is diffused through
the rock itself and is not found alone in
the seams. This is presumed to be a
good indication of
permanency, xne
vein at the end of the
excavation is
about 12 inches wide.
The find is located on one of the spurs
of Tennant peak of the Siskiyous. Ten
nant peak is the culmination of a triple
watershed which embraces tributaries
of Sucker creek, Althouse creek and of
the Klamath river. The ledge is on the
slope which leads to Thompson creek, a
tributary of the Klamath, and is only
about 100 yards from the top of the
divide which slopes on the north side to
Fehely gulch, a small tributary of Suck
er creek. It may be considered the
same divide or "backbone" which sep
arates Sncker creek and Althouse. This
ridge is one of the biggest gold carriers
on the Pacific cost.
Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea After
Ten Years of Suffering.
"Irish to sayka few words in praise of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarr
hoea Remedy," says Mrs. Mattie Burge,
of Martinsville, Va. "I Buffeted from
chronic diarrhoea for ten years and dur
ing that time tried various medicines
without obtaining any permanent relief.
Last summer one of my children was
taken with cholera morbus, and I pro
cured a bottle of this remedy. Only
two doses were required to give her en
tire relief. I then decided to try the
medicine myself, and did not use all of
one bottle before I was well and I have
never since been troubled with that
complaint. One cannot say too much
in favor of that wonderfnl medicine."

The finest military post in the world
is being constructed by the government
a few miles from Manila. It is called
- Fort William McKinley. This post has
been established on a piece of high
'ground where the troops will have the
most salubrious surrounds. Within
easy reach of Manila it is yet far enough
away to keep men away from the
temptations of the city, while the sani
tary conditions will be perfect. Thus
the health and efficiency of the soldiers
will both be promoted. This does not
look like early abandonment of the
- islands.

And headache lurks behind this brow
My back is lame from Cleveland's weight
Thrice has it borne that sacred freight,
And yet, despite my grief and pain,
That portly saint would ride again,
Twice to defeat did Bryan ride,
This much-enduring back astride.
That rider who is all tirade
Such an outrageous racket made,
Yelling and howling while he told
All the iniquities of gold,
that both these ears are useless grown
And I am deaf as any stone.
But drag me out upon the track,
Throw Judge Parker on my back
Sponge out my mouth, tie up my knee,
Inject some cocaine into me,
I'll do my best to win the race,
I'll try at least for second place. Ex.

TYPHOID GERMS.
The microscope shows that in the blood
ofeTcry person snfferinir from typhoid the
little fenni can be found as shown above.
They are supposed to (ret into the water or
milk we dnnlc. The germs multiply so
that one germ is capable of producing
about one hundred trillion genua in twenty-four
hours. That is why if they ever
get into the water supply of a town they
multiply so fast that nearly everybody
drinking the water comes down with the
distase. There are exceptions, however,
and they are the persons whose health is
perfect, whose blood is pure, and liver
active. When the germs gel into a healthy
body they are thrown off with the other
poisons. Recent Chicago statistics show
that one-eighth of all the deaths in the
past two years in that city have resulted
from pneumonia.
The best advice we can give is to put the
body into a perfectly sound, healthy condi
tion. Be assured that you have rich, red
blood and an active liver.
Many years ago Dr. R. V. Pierce, who is
consulting surgeon to the Invalids' Hotel
and Surgical Institute at Buffalo, N. Y
found certain herbs and roots which, when
made into an alterative extract (without
the use of alcohol), seemed to be the very
best means of putting the stomach, blood
and vital organs into proper condition.
This seemed to him as close to nature's
way of treating disease as it was possible
to go. For over a third of a centurv Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery lia' had
a wonderful sale anr. the cures resulting
from its use aie numbered by thousands.

oil because it does not sicken the stomach,
or offend the taste. It strengthens or
renews the assimilative or digestive pro
