Mad ras Pioneer. Excellent Health Advice. Mrs. M. K. Davison, of No. 379 Git ford aveti'-.e, San Jose, Cal., says: "The worth of Klectric liitters as a general family remedy, for headache, bilious ness and torpor of the liver and bowels is so pronounced that 1 am prompted to say a word in its favor, for the benefit of those seeking relief from such afflic tions. There is more health for the di gestive organs in a bottle ol Electric Hitter than in any other remedy I know of." Sold under guarantee at Chas. N. Clarke's drug store 50c.

Although tbe oewa was not made public at the time, tbe Madras Oil & Gag company drilled into a vein of good looking coul in the bole which tbey were sinking on the west slope ot Gtizzly. The coal was encountered at a depth of 150 feet and appears to .be of a fine quality, but the extent of it la not known, as tbe woik was sus pended just after tbe ooal wag struck, the machinery being too light to carry tbe bole to a muob greater depth. When tbe work was suspended, Frank Forest, president of the company, lett for California to buy heavier machin ery. Ue did not buy in Calitornia, however, but placed an order with an eastern Arm through tbeir Portland representatives, tor a standard drill ing outfit and other machinery, mak ing up a oar load lot, and tbis will be received within the next six weeks. In the meantime tbe drill on the ground will be used in prospecting tbe coal discovery, to ascertain the thickness of tbe vein and It is prob able that further Investigation of the ooal prospect will prove it to be of slBoieut extent to be of great Import ance. Ibe discovery ot a good quality ot ooal in Crook county would be of immense importance in the develop ment of tbia section, measureably by tbe exteut of tbe coal deposits uncov ered, aod tbe exploration ot tbeir dis covery by tbe local proepeoting com pany will be watohed with muob in terest.
