A man convinced against his will is of I have seen | his own opinion s"iIL” that badly smashed. A friend came in to see me some time ago while I was in bed with nervous prostration. The physician had strictly forbidden | me to use coffee and I had tried a little Postum Cereal Food Coffee, but the way it was served it tasted so flat that I broke the rules of the doctor and occasionally drank a cup of coffee, although each time I suffered for it. During her conversation she asked me why I didn’'t try Postum. “Oh,” I said, “I have tried that, but it's no| use, I can’t drink it.”” She laughed out loud and said, “Why, my dear, you have been imposed upon. If you once have Postum mad. right you will be in love with it from that time on.” 1 listened to her with little in- terest and much incredulity, but she kept on insisting. Shortly after, when I recovered a little, I was visiting a friend’s hou who Postum, and when it was served it tasted r with the taste of Postum, experien and 1 knew its taste to be decidedly Aat and pid.

It took about fif- teen minutes before it commenced to | boil, then I allowed it to bubble and | boil fifteen minutes more, and after it | had settled I poured out a cup, which certainly was as rich a dark brown cup of coffee as I ever saw in my life, and when cream and sugar were add- ed I was amazed at the taste. “Eureka,” I had found what I wanted. From that time on you can imagine I knew to a certainty when it was served | at the table whether Postum had been boiled long enough or not. There is as much difference as between night and day. Postum underboiled is flat, and boiled as it should be is one of the ost _delicious beverages a woman ever tasted. It is strange that people try and try again, and make Postum in so slovenly a manner that they fail to get the deliclous flavor from it I, of course, have no temptation to go back to common coffee, for I have the finest coffee twice a day, and find it safe, pleasant, healthful and strength- ening to the nerves.—Mrs. M.

Now the California M rs’ Associa has launched a still bigg tracted little attention from people since the convention, but it i 3 greatest scheme in the w of public en- terprise that has ever b 1 SUEgeS this State. It will receive much di 1 in the near future and it promises to become an important State as well as a national issue. g This idea is that of conserving by dams and otherwise the waste waters of the State. The resolution ave that nine- tenths of the surface ater of the State now runs to waste .to- -the The recent drought with Its ne of $30,000,000 or so imposed on California_ serves to command attention for the scheme of conserving for the pur- poses of mining, power and irrigation the Waters with which nature really abun antly supplies the State. There must be Jong aiscussion and an evolution of pub- lic opinion in this line before anything ractical comes of It, but 1t is bound to ecome In the near future one of the chief State issues, and the California Miners' Assoclation must be now credited with belng the first agency to make this palpable benefit an issue. Sy The Butte County Miners’ Association has given ple; ng evidence of vitality since the State Miners’ convention. It has not been the habit of any of the fif- teen county associations to meet soon ter the annual State convention or at any other time than shortly before that r ceting and mainly to elect delegates. The Butte County Assoclation met the other evening and for one thing Oroville to stimulate interest in the as ation, to Increase its membership and s for a on_the part of the associa- tion, which shall do something for the general mining interests of Butte County. It is planned to have some of the leading members of the State executive commi: tee present from San Francisco and eles- where. The project of establishing a county mining bureau and mineral ex- hibit was discussed among other plans. Prestdent O. W. Jasper a&-‘pnlnlu! as the executive committee W. F. Duncan Jr., George H. Evans, A, Ekman and H. P. Stow. W. E. Duncan Sr., the secretar: resigned, but his resignation was not ac- cepted. 'Mr. Duncan has been the soul and a good deal of the body of the Butte several years, and in times of apathy this well known mine owner has hustled about and been nearly the entire association. He was mnlngr instrumental In getting up and placing the Butte County exhibit at the fate Mining Fair, which hf personally cared for during the exhibit,’and what he has accomplished in this and other w; jllustrates what one man of energy and public spirit can do in a community in which nearly everybody jogs along in the r“):"uw others have wakened up with an impulee to lay hold with an enterprising public interest. This life on the part of the Butte County Association and the plaus for doing something directly to boom the mining industry in that county, while be- coming a stronger support to the State Association, are worthy of note. Word was received here vesterday stat-i linx that the richest strike yet recorded in- | u in the Interior De- | was made in the York mine at Downieville a few days ago. The property has been vielding much golden treasure during the past year and a mill was recently erected at the mine, which is kept running stead- ily. The mine is the property of W. W. York and Valley Union. Nevada County has some extensive de- posits of copper ore, especially in the vicinity of Spencerville. Hence it is in- | teresting to our home readers to know that there s a great -boom °In copper mining stocks, and Calumet and Hecla, owned pringjpally in Boston, is selling at $650 a share. This is more than twice the price which the stock commanded during the copper boom of 1590, and other copper stocks have advanced in_the same pro- portion. On the present valuation of the | stock, the Calumet and Hecla is worth $65,000,000. These facts are worth publish- ing, because California is full of promis- | ing copper prospects, and also because our best copper developments are passing into the hands of foreign mining corporations, | Californians appearing to be oblivious to their value. It takes a long time for.a Californian to learn that the world’s Breatest mines are copper properties.— Nevada City Transeript. A rich vein of ore has been encountered in the Ydalpom mine at Copper City, owned by Dr. S. Graham and Theodore | Popejoy. Assays made show an average | of fully '$30 per ton. Large numbers of | prospectors are at present working in the Copper City district, and as work is being done in a systematic and intelligent man- ner some good development is expected as ar 1t.—Redding Searchlight. Unusually rich rock has been struck in the Purdy vein of the Hazel Dell group of mines, the rock in question going from $1000 to $3000 per ton. There are six mines in_this group and the grupenies are oper- afed by the Jubllee Mining Company.— | Tuolumne Independent, The Redding Free Press announces “a | fabulously rich strike” in the old Glad- | stone mine in the French Gulch district, | In the western part of Shasta County. This Is one of the famous mines of that part of the State. It was recently ac- quired after a season ot litigation by John H.

One of the manufacturing enterprises of San Francisco which is very popular with the. mining men of California is the Dow Steam Pump Works at 108-120 Beale street. The business of the works has increased gradually so that it was found mecessary to increase its facilities for manufacturing the various lines of pumping machinery in which it is en- gaged. There have been recently added up- to-date iron and brass foundries to the establishment, s0 as to more perfectly control and improve the line of castings which this intricate class of machinery demands. Thig firm is now shipping its pumps to China, Philippine Islands, Sumatra, etc., etc., also equipping the larger mines of the Pacific Coast and Mexico with its station and sinking pumps. The battleships and cruisers built on this coast have been equipped with the Dow pumps. Electrically operated pumping plants constitute an important feature of this firm’s business, and during the past year this class of pump has met with an unusual demand. Their horizontal and vertical electri- cal driven pumps are built for heads from 100 to- 1500 feet and capacities from 25 gallons per minute upward. A visit to the Dow Steam Pump Works, 108-120 Beale street, is always of inter- est to mining men as well as others in terested in mining machinery. would make a good sized and interesting | to be pumped.

INTO BIG VEINS | TUNNELS FIRST COAL DEVELOPMENT IS AMERICA’S. The Alaska Commercial Company Hears That the Mine Will Produce 100 Tons & Day Soon. Coal mining has begun on the Upper Yukon River near Circle City, not far from the Klondike, and 100 tons a day are promised for next summer. This inter- esting development is on the American side, practically in the Arctic circle, and hereafter coal will figure in the mineral output of the Yukon country. This be- ginning seems to promise much for indus- trial operations in the Yukon, including quartz mining, which must await power and machinery. Visions of electric power iines instantly arise. The Alaska Commercial Company ap- pears to be the pioneer in actual produc- tion, though the big rival company has secured coal properties in that region. Some time ago the Alaska Company se- cured several coal prospects close to Cir- cle City and sent a coal expert—W. C. Willlams—to the place to develop the property. He reports a fine deposit of coal, the delivery of ninety-seven tons to the steamers of the company for steam- making before the close of navigation, and promises to have 3000 tons ready when navigation opens next year. The company here has received Mr. Willlams’ report, dated September 26, to Assistant Superintendent E. Hansen at Dawson. It tells what the “Nation River” coal mine is like. He writes in part: The present conditions are that the prospects are looking favorable -for developlng into a mine. The work 80 far consists of two tun- hels. No. 1 1s 07 feet long. In it was 27 feet of clean coal averaging 6 feet thick. The vein Thén became troubled with a stratum of rock or “‘horse,” wedge shaped in the center of the Vein, with about 8 feet of coal on each wall It finally diminished to @ seam from 1 to 14 inches thick, which Is & true leader to the main vein. On September 12 I stoped this tun- Tel and located @ vein at a distance of § feat Above high water. It proved superior in all Tespects, the coal being of a stronger naturs and mines much coarser, making it superior for steaming purposes. The vein has been lo- cated in three places and there are indica- tions of another vein, which I intend to locate his winter. i No.‘? tunnel is_the main opening and is a much more favorable prospect than No. 1. The Vein is nearer the general strike of the pri- mary rock. The amount of coal mined and delivered to steamers is about 97 tons. I in- tend mining 3000 tons, and.if the vein is con- tinuous and not pockety will have the mine in shape to mine 100 tons & day next summer. T will this winter. work sixteen men at $J a day and board. I am prepared to push mat- ters as fast as possible, Nothing is here said ofthe quality and nature of the coal, but it is demonstrated to be valuable for steam power in com- petition _with wood cut along the river banks. Yukon coal mining has thus made a definite start. Leon Sloss thinks that a. coal supply will be valuable fi~~¢ to river steamers but that the development of an adequate supply will do much for mining. _“Tf-it turns out well it will be worth as lmuch as a gold mine,” says Mr, Sloss.
