Grants Pass, Portland and Boston men are to inaugurate a mining ven ture near Yreka that will be a big undertaking and be a new method of drifting for gold. The company re cently organized to handle this propo sition is known as the Blue Gravel Mining Company and is composed of H. A. Corliss, W. T. Cope and Charles Gray of Grants Pass, Carl N. Jones of Portland and C. A. Rimbach of Boston. Mr. Corliss, who is one of the most suc cessful hydranilo miners In Southern Oregon, will bave charge of the work at tbe mine. Mr. Gray, who is also an expert in plaoer mining, will be the foreman nnder Mr. Corliss. Mr. Gray will go to the mine next week taking hie wife with him. Mr. Cor liss left for the mine Tuesday, but his family will remain in Grants Pass. Mr. Jones, the Portland part ner has been in Grants Pans for the past 10 days, and he accompanied Mr. Corliss to Yreka. Mr. Jones is a mining engineer and machiaist and will have charge of installing, tbe machinery that will be used. The property embraces half a mile of the channel of Greenhorn golch, a tributary of Yreka creek, and a mile and a half from the town of Yreka. This mine was worked for several years and over $2a0,000 in gold taken out, bnt for the lant two years it has been tied up in litigation aud idle. The pay travel, so far as worked, has proven very rich aud averages about 200 feet wide in the ancient channel. It is 120 feet to bedrock and a large quantity of water to handle has made it a ccrious matter to work the mine. The mine is now equipped with two boilers, one of 60 and the other 40 H. P. that operates a large plunger pump. To keep the mine clear of water with this kind of pump proved a very expensive job, as the sand cnt out the pumps so fast. A new equipment entirely has been ordered for the mines. A two-step, centrifugal pump capable of handling 600 gallons of water a minute will be installed, as will also a larger and faster hoist for raising the gravel. The present equipment will be need for clearing out the mine and keeping the water down while the new pump can be set. It will be plncrd down in the mine and will shove tin- water to the surface. Tbe power will be on the surface and will be transmitted to the pump by a shaft. Steam power will be used for the present, but if favor able terms can be fecnred electric power will be taken from the Siski you Electrio Company's plant at Fall rreek on the Klamath river. It is estimated that ouly a flow of 250 gal lons per minute will have to be taken out of the mine, so the new pomp will be able to keep the workings clear of water. This water is need for washing the gravel and is ample for the purpose. The entire bed of the ancient chan nel will be worked, the earth above being held up by large timbers as fast as the gravel is removed. The gTavel on being hoisted to the surface will be run through slnice boxes to take up the gold, the tailings then being run onto a dump. Ab the water is a steady underground supply mining ean be carried on in the Summer as well as in Winter, and it will be the plan of the company to cany on work the year around. Mining men who are familiar with the property agree tlvit it is one of the richest mines in Siskiyon connty, and when properlv equipped and worked will be one of the biggest gold producers on the Pacific Coast. Manager Corliss ex pects to put on a large force of men, so soon as the new equipment is in stalled, and work will be carried on dny and night. How's This?

They said when they left that state the snow was two feet deep'on the level. When they arrived nt Leland and found the weather so warm and sunshiny, they were agree ably surprised for tbey bad been told that it rained here nearly all tbe time. Tbe Summer birds are with ns. We are having fine weather with an occasional frost The ground has dried so farmers can plow, but tbe miners need water. The late big rains gave them water for a time but as the ground was not thoroughly soaked before tbe last rain it soon dried np. Work has been shut down at the big steam shovel ramp near Tonnel 9 and only one man is there, as watchman. The three locomotives and all the dump cars are standing on the siding. The cause for shutting Jown the work of making the big fills at the trestles was that the earth had be come too wet to handle well. So soon as the Winter rains are by the work will be resumed with a large crew of men. Wideawake. Luckiest Man in Arkansas. "I'm the luckiest man in Arkan sas," writes H. L.

Good Showing at the Opp. C. A. Myrick came down from tbe Opp mine last Saturday and Monday he returned taking his family with him. They will reside for the pres eut in Jacksonville, but later on when a house can be had he will move to the mine so as to not have to walk the mile from the town to the mine. Mr. Mryick has been at work for the past month at the Opp mine where be operates a Burleigh drill. He stated that operations were progress ing like olockwork at the Opp and that the 10-stamp mill is operated to its fnll capacity and for 24 hours each day includiug Suuduy. Five power drills are employod in gutting ont ore and in doing development work and nearly 100 men are employed in the various departments. The Casey & McWilliaras mine, which adjoins the Opp property, is being developed and is showing np so satisfactorily that a mill is likely to be erected this year on if. Big prepara lions are being made at the Bine Ledge copper mine for extensive de velopmeut and a large number of men are being employed. Startling But True. Pjopln the world over were horri fied on learning of the burning of a Chicago theater in which nearly 600 people lost their lives, yet more than five times this number or over 8000 people died from pneumonia In Chicago during the same year, with scarcely a passing notice. Everyone of these cases of pneumonia resulted from a cold and could have been pre vented by the timely use of Chamber lian's Cough Remedy. A gieat many who had every reason to fenr pneo- nionia have warded it off by the prompt use of this remedy. The fol lolwing is an instance of this sort: "Too much raunot be said in favor of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and especially fur colds and influenza. I know that it cured my daughter, Laura, of a severe cold, and I believe eared her life when she was threat ened with pneumonia." W. D. Wil cox, Logan, New York, druggists.

No woman can look beautiful without good health. A woman's gixnl health depends on those organs peculiarly femi nine, and which so often become disor dered, causing misery and drawing-down pain. Nature's laws are perfeot, health endures if you obey them, but disease follows disobedience. The distressing complaint of woman are often brought about by catching oold at a critical period, breathing foul indoors' air and long hour of work and nervous tension. Go strait ht to Nature for the cure to the forest. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription is A'asVrc't cure for the dis tressing complaints of women. Prof. King, M. D., In his American Dispensa tory, says of Black Cohosh or Black Snake-root "our early American In dians aet a high value on thia root In diseases of women. It i lurpanted by no other drug, in congestive amdititmt of the parts when then are dragging pains and tenderness. Lady's Slipper root Is a nerve stimulant Mid tonic, improving both circulation and nutrition of the nerve centers favoring sleep and cheerful condition of the mind; of service in mental depression, nervous headache, irregularities of women with desipondoncy."
