Iho manage ment expect by the end of next wok to reach tho 10'J foot level anJ will then put on additional men to run t annels each way on the ledge, while another force continues sinking. No effort will be spared to devolop the mino as rapidly as possible. Three loa is of heavy mine timbers havo been sent out from Willcox this wsek for uao in the shaft. Work has com menced on the road to connect the mine with tho new townsite of L&ub City, and a company boarding house and other buildings aro to b3 erected at once. We arc imformed that tho stock of the company is being rapidly taken both by local busine-s men and out side invjptors.

It is said that th o railroad people have in view the building of a largo hotel at Maricopa; the company has had tbis under advisement for many months and it is said it is now about to be favorably considered. Still More Counterfeiting. The Secret Service has unearthed an other band of counterfeiters and secured a targe quantity of bogu bills, which are so cleverly executed that the average person would never suspect them of be ing spurious. Things of great value are always selected by counterfeiters for im itation, notably the celebrated Hostel ler's Stomach JBitters, which has many imitators but no equals for indigestion, dyspepsia, constipation, nervousness and general debility. The Bitters sets things right in the stomach, and uhen the stomach is in good order it makes good blood and plenty-of it. In this manner the Bitters get at the seat of strength and vitality, and restore vigor to the weak and debilitated. Beware of coun terfeiters when buying.
