There is more Catarrh in this sec tion ot the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last tew years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly tailing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incur able. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and there fore requires constitutional treat ment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manu factured by F. J. Cheney it Co., To ledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken in ternally in doses from to drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces ot the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it tails to cure. Send tor circulars and testimonials. Address, F. J.

Creamery Burned* Last Friday morning the Smith Valley Creamery, together with a recently installed ice plant, was to tally destroyed by fire, entailing a loss of about«$5,ooo to the stock holders. John O’Banion, the president of the concern, who owns four-fifths of the capital stock, is making strenuous efforts to rebuild the creamery, having already taken steps in this direction. In the meantime the several dairymen in Smith Valley are pro curing separators as speedily as possible, and will, for some time to come, bring their cream to the Yerington creamery. From the meagre reports at hand the insurance on that plant amounts to a little over one-half of the actual value. The origin of the fire is also a matter of conjecture, the general belief prevailing that the stove pipe, projecting but a few feet above the roof, ignited the cupola. Only thirty minutes elapsed from the time of the discovery of the blaze to the collapse of the roof, which precluded the saving of any part of the costly machinery or any other cumbrous apparatus. Mining Men Visit* Thompson Campbell, who held an option on the Douglas copper property in this district, George Kislingbury, formerly State Mine Inspector of Colorado, and Mr. Walley, a Los Angeles capitalist, visited the Douglas group of mines last Saturday.
