TIME The incorruptible judge of all things, has put the seal of true merit on the work of the International Specialists. For over seven years their work has been right before the eyes ot an exactag. sternly judging public and tM tact
thar dSng theaTs their retards plainly show an ever increasing number of patrons, proves far better than boastful tirades "Of what one will do or promises to do." that their methods of doing business and the System of treating
Chronic Diseases are topmost of all that Modem'Medical Science can offer to the chronic sufferer.
During their sixteen years of general and special practice they have been able to select all that they consider 6f true merit from the various schools of medicine and have not been too narrow in their views to see the good points in every
system, as a result, basing their opinion upon their record of cures, they believe their Combined System of treatment the most succesful in existence.
. ' THEIR SEVEN YEARS OF UNPARALLELED SUCCESS HERE IS ONE OF THEIR TRUE GUARANTEES. THEY OFFER THOSE SEEKING MEDICAL AID. a guarantee far more binding
and of much more value than any written contract or verbal promise.
There is not a socalled written guarantee in existence, issued by a doctor or medical concern, that is not one sided and all m favor of the doctor-as a result it is an insult to the man of JlJrlTcnM.

as quickly as possible. THEY ADVISE THE SICK AGAINST TREATING WITH ANYONE WHO TREATS BY THE MONTH, and THEY WILL RETURN EVERY DOLLAR PAID THEM BY ANYONE WHO WILL PROVE
THAT THEY HAVE TREATED THEM IN ANY OTHER BUT A SQUARE WAY. , mmm
Taking into consideration the fact that there are so many different remedies advertised as sure cures for catarrh of the nasal passages,
none of which could possibly cure, and the fact that so many good physicians claim that it is incurable one has good reasons for be
ing skeptical regarding any kind of treatment, but, when treatment is based upon an absolute knowledge of the cause and that cause
can be permanently removed, it stands to reason that a cure will result and that's exactly how we cure catarrh, for instance, in the
preliminary examination of many patients we find a tumor, a polypus, a spur, an enlarged turbinate bone, a crooked septum orsom
other mechanical irregularity the cause of all the symptoms, the correction of which is simple easy and "without danger. THIS E3

difficult cases with absolute certainty.
SPECIAL DISEASES OF MEN
In no other class of diseases is our "Ironclad rule," viz., (A correct diagnosis and removal of the cause), more applicable than in
this class of maladies, neither is there any other class of troubles that should demand more careful attention and conscientious
treatment because this has long been the fertile field of the quack and patent nostrum fakers.
The term, Lost Vitality, is not a disease, therefore there is no one remedy or combination of remedies that will effect a cure in any
case. The weakness is the result of some actual diseased condition which is generally easily diagnosed and removed by skillful treat
ment, in this way the only rational way of treating this trouble. SOME CASES CAN BE CURED IN A FEW DAYS, while others,
due to a complication of physical defects takes longer, but what we wish to impress most upon the man of weakened vitalityis the
importance of a correct diagnosis and -givehim warning to avoid placing himself under the care of any doctor who claims a specific
for this trouble. He is dishonest and a charlatan.
Among the many causes of Decline are enlarged, infected or otherwise diseased prostate gland, chronic infections, varicocele and hydr
cele, all of which respond more or less promptly to scientific treatment and after a removal of the cause our Special Combination of
Animal and Chemical Extracts will rebuild any man, no matter how weak or how long the trouble has existed.
DISEASES OF WOMEN
That hundreds of useless, dangerous and mutilating operations are performed daily upon the female generative organs, everybody knows
to be a feet; then why should a sensible woman submit to an operation which often destroys these important organs and fails to give
the relief they seek, when other simple,- safe and sure methods of treatment such as we have perfected will give permanent relief. We
always follow the principle to cure and preserve rather than to destrov important organs, in any diseased condition.
NERVOUS DISEASES
A great many diseases, uncertain in their symptoms, hut nevertheless causing severe impairment of the general health, can now be
traced to a diseased condition of the NERVOUS SYSTEM. Not recognizing the REAL CAUSE of this class of patients, who, unable to
find relief, are frequently driven into the arms of unscrupulous charlatans. The careful and intelligent examination we give to every
patient enables us frequently to find as the cause a derangement of the Nervous System, which readily responds to the Specific treat
ment we employ.
BLOOD POISON
In the eourse of Specific Blood Poison the discovery of "606" has marked an important advance, yet its administration is dangerous
and often followed by serious, after effects. All these disadvantages have been overcome and this treatment developed into fullest
efficiency in our BRITISH CURE. The BRITISH CURE is the highest perfection of all methods for the purification of the blood, re
quires for its administration "but a few days, is absolutely harmless and painless and its results are complete and permanent.
RUPTURE RHEUMATISM
Under the various "SPECIAL TREATMENTS" that are administered in our Institution, our nonoperative Cure for Ruptr-cand our 30
day Cure for Rheumatism deserve special mention. These ailments have been treated heretofore without success, so that treatment that
will positively effect a permanent cure should be welcome to the many disappointed sufferers of this class.
CONTRACTED DISORDER
Our improved methods cure in lass than half the time required by old forms of treatment. When we discharge a patient as cured
be will stay cured, and a relapse is impossible.

Utter, who closed down his big zine
mine some time ago, has resumed -work
and will soon ship several car loads
to Oklahoma and Kansas.
Oglesby and his associates, who are
mining near Pinos Altos, are making
regular shipments o gold and silver
ore to the El Paso selter. The ore
carries much gold and the shipments
are paying welL Bell and Wright are
also making shipments from the Pinos"
Altos district.
Itlch Ore Found.
A fine body of gold and silver bear
ing ore has been struck in the Wood
lawn mine, owned by county clerk E.
B. Venable and Robert Houston, lo
cated a few miles north of Pinos Altos.
Assajs show values of over ?20 a ton
and it is believed further development
will show much higher values.
A deposit of chrysolite, a rare stone,
has been discovered not a great way

Kingman, Ariz., Sept. 20. What Is by
far the richest copper ore ever discov
ered in the Mineral Park district is now
being opened in the old Laporte mine.
Some very rich silver ore was recently
uncovered in the old workings and a
drift was started some distance to the
south. The face of that drift is now all
in ore of shipping value. Some of it
carries as much as 80 percent copper.
Ross D. McCauseland holds this prop
erty under lease. It is only a short dis
tance east of the town of Mineral Park
The initial shipment of ore from the
Copper Giant mine to the United "Verde
smelter, has been made. It was one
carload of ore carrying 20 percent cop
per and about ?20 a ton in gold and
silver. Fine ore is being opened at
the 300-foot level and plana are being
made to sink further. Drifts will
be run from the 300-foot station and
stopes will be opened on all levels.
"Will Stimulate Development.
The United "Verde Copper company
has announced that it is in the market
for high grade silieious ores. Thl3 may
stimulate the development of proper
ties in the Wauga Yuma district, a
short distance southeast of Kingman
on the west slope of the "Wallapal
mountains. A number of promising
copper properties lie in that district.
One of the most promising is that of
Chris Vogt and Peter "White, where
some wonderful bodies of copper ore
are being opened.
, Recent work below the 200-foot level
of the main shaft on the property of
the Nevada-Arizona Gold Mines com
pany, at Music mountain, has opened
a body of ore six feet wide that aver
ages $9 a ton in gold. The entire width
of the- shaf Is In milling ore and drifts
on the veins show values above $30 a
ton. All the ore is free milling.
One sample taken from the 100-foot
level gaVe a result of 41 ounces gold
or ?S20 a ton. When work in the shaft
was discontinued, at a depth of 200
feet, the showing was not encouraging
but below that level better ore is be
ing opened than in any of the workings
above. Plenty of ore is now developed
to assure a large tonnage for the mill
and it is expected that when the shaft
is down 300 feet it will yield sufficient
water for milling purposes. The mill
has been overhauled and put in shape
to go into commission at any time.
Weeks Run Is $0000.
A bar of bullion worth $9000 was
brought in from the Tom Reed mill
representing the result of one. week's
run. The weekly bar from the Gold
Road plant came to $15,000.
No doubt now exists that the per
manency of the ore bodies recently
struck in the Ollie Oatman and Black
Eagle claims of the Tom Reed has been
proved. The Ollie Oatman Is some dis
tance north of the old workings and
the Black Eagle lies to the south.
The principal Black Eagle ore body
Is 12 feet in width, the greater part of
which Is high grade milling ore. A
hoisting plant is being placed on the
shaft and sinking will be carried to a
depth of several hundred feet.
Wherever the Ollie Oatman and Black
Eagle have been opened they show ore.
Both are on the Tom Reed vein, which
is ore along its -whole length.

Mogollon, N. M., Sept. 20. At the
Lincoln Mining & Development com
pany's property work, preparatory to
resumption of sinking is completed and
actual sinking started. This includes
timbering of tunnel and unwatering
and lining the shaft. A large pump is
on the ground and will be Installed as
soon as additional power is acquired,
the flow in the meanwhile being hand

At the Maud Mining company's mine
a compressor is being installed ta
facilitate further sinking of a new
shaft, which is now down a little OTer
500 feet.
At the Oaks company the average of
ore milled from tunnels B and C (east
end tunnel group) in August was $16.12
per ton. The average grade from tun
nel A mined and milled from the winze
the past month was $20.80 per ton.
"A" is the deepest tunnel now being

bullion was made last week.
At the Socorro Mining & Milling
company's property the Clifton tunnel,
being driven on the mother lode of the
district, is expected at any time to
encounter and drain the large flow ot
water found on the 500 -foot level in
the mine last year, which was bulk
headed at the time. It is reported a
body of ore averaging $40 per ton was
recently struck on the 800 foot level.
The width of the shoot was not known,
as neither wall had been reached." Tho

Outside Interest in District
Grows; Two New Shafts
to Be Sunk.
Bisbee, Ariz Sept. 20. Events of
the past week have added new chapters
to the mining activities in this district
and demonstrate the worth of the Bis
bee mines, and the interest shown in
them ny eastern financiers.
The Calumet and Arizona ornclals,
including president Briggs and direct
ors Thomas F. Cole, Peter Ruppe and
Capt. Thos. Hoatson, have returned to
Bisbee from an inspection of properties
under bond in the Ajos and at the Su
perior property of the Calumet & Ar
izona. The visit of the officials resulted in
orders to suspend the preliminary work
or eamination. wnicn was m progress
for more than a year, and which is
known to have demonstrated a. great
deal.
Two new shafts have been decided
upon as a result of the visit and in
spection ot underground worKings or
the company. One of these will be on
the property of the "Warren Townsite.
The location of the other has not been
announced. The Warren townsite
shaft is likely to prove an etension of
the Briggs' ore body that might develop
into one of the biggest things that ever
happened in the camp. Relative to the
Junction shaft, it was this shaft that
is now concreted to the 1500 level, and
is held to be the greatest piece of shaft
work of the kind in the world. "With
its entire depth concreted it will be
just that much greater an engineering
triumph.

Dividends Are Satisfactor.
Dividends of Calumet & Arizona and
Shattuck, announced recently, made
no change in the standing of these
companies, ecept that with the C &
A., there is given a very strong en
dorsement of its intrinsic value and
resourcefulness, for It has erected a
new smelter, concreted a great shaft
and conducted various other enter-i
prises from which earnjngs are yet to
come without imparlng either its re

disbursements. The dividend an
nounced during last week was $1.25 per
share, the usual payment, and 25 cents
excess of. the payment made a year
ago. Shattuck-Arlzona. has announced
a dividend of 50 cents a share, which
conforms with the previous dividend
this year and establishes the quarterly
dividend rate on this basis.
The August output of the Phelps

Clifton, Ariz, Sept. 20. Exteasrv
plans for the development of the Twin
Peaks mine, a few miles from Duncan,
have been announced. Since opera

to work sinking the main shaft from
the 300 foot to the 800 foot level. Cross

Insufficient capital has long hind

holders advanced a large sum and there
Is now sufficient money on hand to
determine the location of all the ore
bearing strata. Though all the rode
taken out of the various workings has

low grade as to make shipping to
smelters unprofitable.
At one time the contsruction of a

and Becomes Solid.
Clifton. Ariz., Sept. 20. A large
force of men Is at work chiseling and
sawing out 500 tons of solid matte,
"frozen" in the first furnace of tha
Arizona Copper company's new smelter.
It Is expected that at least six months
will pass and many thousand of dol
las will be spent before the smelter
can he used. In the meantime tha old
plant will be operated.
The furnace was lined with fire
brick. Between each brick was a small
space. It was supposed that the bricks
would melt and run together as soon
as a fire was started under the furnace.
But the bricks were defective and did
not melt. The molten metal ran into
the interstices.
As soon as this, became known the
fires were drawn, leaving the matte
inside the furnace to cool and become
solid. It is now a solid mass of 500
tons, 99 per cent copper.
AUTO TRUCKS MAY
REPLACE MULE TEAMS
Prescott, Ariz., Sept. 20. The mules
and wagons now used for hauling the
ore of the Commercial mine, in Copper
Basin, to Skull Valley station, may
soon be replaced by auto trucks. Ex
tensive Investigations are being made
to determine the advisability of the
change, which probably will not take
place under six months.
A deal Is 'now on with a coast com
pany for the purchase of two trucks
-with wide flanged wheels, having a
carrying capacity of six tons. The two
trucks, it is stated, can carry a carload
of ore to the station in one day.
Thomas N. Marmont has announced
that he will establish a permanent
camp and begin the development of his
group of claims near the Senator.
A deal is now on for tha transfer of
the Midway mine, near the Bluebell on
Turkey creek, to eastern investors. If
the deal goes through the Midway will
be thoroughly developed.

hoist and the A. & A. is progressing;
without a hitch. It is thought thar.
this work will be completed, well -within
the estimated time. Underground;
in this property commercial ore is be
ing opened, particularly in the south)
drift from the 1400 foot level. At this
point the ore body is increasing in
size and richness with every foot of
work. Good headway is being made in
the raise to the shaft from the 1400 foot
station, in spite of the fact that it la
being driven through an extremely,
hard formation.
Little actual development is being;
done on the Cleopatra at this time.
Men are working on the apex ore body
above the town of Jerome.
On the Apex ore body three shifts'
are drifting and preparing for sinking.
A shaft will be sunk on this body deep
enough to expose the exact tip of the
ore. and drift or crosscut will be
started from the Hull tunnel to tap
it. The drift on the apex Is now la
five feet of high grade ore. .
Three Crews In Hull 3Hae
Men are working at three different!
places on the group of the Hull Copperj
company. A winze is bein sunk from
the Hull tunnel, west of the 1S88 shaft. t
The Hull tunnel is also being driven
forward and work is being done in,
the tunnel on the Jerome claim, west
of the United Verde Copper company's
ground.
"Work Is going forward in four dif
ferent places oh the United Verde ex
tension. The main shaft is now down
120 feet and the raise being made from
the 809 foot level to meet it, is up 75
feet. "When this shaft is completed to
a depth of 800 feet, work underground
can be prosecuted much more rapidly
because of better conditions. The
winze from the 800 is now dcrwn. 240
feet and the south drift from the same
level is in several hundred feet All
these workings are in the oxidized
zone.
At the Calumet & Arizona the 800
foot tunnel is now nearlng known ore
bodies exposed nearer the surface, and
it is predicted that at the depth the
tunnel will tap them, they will haxe
increased in size and richness.
The New Zteger will keep up the
reputation of the old with a few extra
frills, thrown in gratis. Advertisement.
