THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JANUARY 12, 1902 RUPTURE The FIDELITY RUPTURE which is the only painless injectiom ereantment that will cure 90 per cent of all cases so they will stay cured, . e lished in 1891 by Frank H. Wray, M. D., of Chicago, a physi- inn with a quarter of a century’s experience in the practice of medicine and surge; Since this treatment was established and proved to be successful more than one hundred imitations have come into existence, each to sink into oblivion within & year. Fakirs and unprincipled scoundrels of the dark- dve, styling themselves “doctors” and “professors,” mot possessing a medical education or diplomas, have advertised long and loud the virtues of their wonderful appllances and external applications: comnsequently, the confiding sufferers have been d and disappointed by these quacks so they have Jost confidence in humanity, but in spite of all this, the VIDELITY method has grown and is used by several hundred graduated physicians from the Atlantic to the Pacific, all of whom have been spe- !y educated by Dr. Wray or some of his gualified physicians how to ¥ this great and grand Cure. In establish public confidence, ach doetor will treat every oase that is promounced curable upon the pian of “no pay until cured,” and when the patient is discharged a “Cer- tificate of Cure” is issmed, which is good in any of these offices for future attention, if necessary, free of charge. No other medical concern in the world can make a similar offer, or dare to conduct their practice upon ke business primciples. for théy camnot produce o cure that will stay cured. In San Francisco and her suburbs more than 25,000 people of all ages are aifiicted with Rupture, and nine out of every ten can be cured in #ixty days by this scientific and painless treatment without the loss of time or interruption of business, and, considering this, it is certainly criminal negligence if the afiicted will not avail themselves of this grand opportunity to be made whole again, Of what use are riches and position if e has a defective body and bovers over an open grave, for one knows not what moment strangula- tion mey occur, and when 1 the majority of cases, the grave soon holds the viotim.

These legacies which Lord Salisbury had to take up included the Venezuelan boundary Samoan difficulty and the French posi- tion on the Nile, all of which the Govern- ment successfully grappled with and dis- posed of. Chamberlain added: Our American kinsfolk agreed to a treaty to enable the construction of an interoceanic canal, which I believe will be of great ad- vantage to the commerce of the world, as it will be of great advantage to the United States, 1 might have included the struggle between the Boers and Great Britain for su- premacy in South Africa, but I say these are Folid achlevements in the cause of peace and if we have been unable to remove Continental prejudice, which has always existed, but was never more coarsely expressed, we have at least been enabled to settle many substantiai differ- ences which might have caused international conflict. Extolling_colonial patriotism Chamber- lain said: “Only a day or two ago I read in an influential Canadian paper an edi- torial which declared that the pro-Boers in England were injuring the empire abroad and destroying the unity which is our national safeguard. This is only a sample of the loyalty expressed in every colony of the empire. This is a new factor in politics.

Local Copper Product Not Likely to Be Less in Volume, Gold miners in California are looking forward to large developments the pres-’ ent year may bring about. The same is true of the prospectors for copper. The gold dredging industry is certain to in- crease the output. Much is expected from the new dredging operations to be under- taken in Calaveras County. The present year will bring the ‘Sweepstakes mining property in Trinity County to the produc- ing stage. Attention was recently called to the wide distribution of copper depos- its indicated by the maps and /reports of the State Mineralogist. . Copper miners are not likely to curtail the copper pro- duction. The base metal is found with gold and silver in California and the value of the precious metals pays for the cost of mining. There is a great outlook for the gold miners. The Mining and Scientific Press reviews this subject and its conclusions will be read with interest Gold mining in 1901 has been a steady com- mercial business. Operators, having practically no concern as to sale prices, have been engaged in effecting economies which, increasing the ef- ficiency of labor, lower the cost of produ tion. “The average cost of producing gold certainly lower at the end:of 1901 than it was at the Deginning. In part this is apt to be overlooked, as reductions in the cost of pro- duction simultaneously bring within commer- cial reach gold bearing deposits that before costs were reduced were unutilizable, Mining has been improved and cheapened by & ‘more general use of vertical shafts in lode mines, by the more general use of power drills, and by, the much extended use of electric power transmlssions. In placer mining the employ- ment of dredgers has become more general, and the costs of operation have also been re- -bearing rock to the unit of day's labor of the miner has been increased more than his wages. In mill- ing and reduction the cyanide process has been | more widely applied. In South Dakota and | Montana, particularly, this process, as install- ed in 1901, will result in a large increase in production’and profits during 1902 and after- Wward. Lesser economies and reductions in cost have been effected by the use of conveying machinery and in improvements in the detail of concentration methods. Both gold mining and milling are becoming more exclusively me- chanical, more efficlent to the end desired, and cost less on the average than at the begiBning of 1901, There have been no sensational discoveries of new placer gold fields during 1901. Some discoveries have been made that may become sensational in 1902. The same statement Is to be made of lode £old mines. . There are as vet no new gold fields though some notable discov- erles that may *become gold flelds in 1002. There has been a marked widening of the | limits of old gold producing districts every- | where and some notable examples of success- | ful re-exploitation of supposedly worked out mines.

Our special -Boe sults against the Shasta Iron Company, the company comes into possession of lands in the Pit River iron district that were claimed by plaintiffs on the basis of prior location. The Calaveras Prospect says: San Andreas was thrown into a flutter of excitement when It was told about town that the Fellow Craft mine had been *‘jumped during the night. ~As there are something liko $10,000 or $15,000 worth of improvements on he ground, and the mine itselt is valued at at least, the jumping stirred he town from center to circumference. The property has of late stood In the name f the Fellowcraft Mining Company, the prin- {pal holers of the stock being Dr. Lewis of San Francisco and James Tiscornia of this place. There is a mill on the property, and all the other buildings necessary for a complete plant. The malin shaft is down 250 feet and Inuch other work has becn done. Just as mill- ing was about to commence the mine was clored down by litigation and has been idle about two years. Mr. Tiscornia purchased his portion of the stock at a forced sale to satisfy & judgment for his own and assigned claims against the mine. He lacked a few shares of heving a_controliing interest. 1t is claimed that no assessment work has been done for the ycar 1901, and as the mine is not patented it therefore 'became subject to relocation. At midnight between the old and new vear Henry Zwinge, Ben Joohnson and Frank Treat Jr. repaired to the ground and posted their notices of relocation, -and since then have followed up their programme by doing werk on the ground. Mr. Tiscornia also put men at work there in order to protect his interest. There is a chance for an interesting lawsuit. The Amador Ledger says that mining in Amador Cpunty promises great things for the coming year. Around Jackson the mining outiook is particularly bright. Out- | side of Jackson the industry is also thriv- ing. At Sutier Creek the Central Eureka, the Wildman and Lincoln are attracting attention. At Amador City a notable mining revival is in progress. ‘““‘Altogether,” says the Ledger, “the prospect is flattering. The gold yield for the coming year is expected to show a material increase over that of last year. It is pleasing to be able to state, with truthfulness, that our main industry is upon a more satisfactory fcgnng than it has known for many years.

Segregating the statistical showing, the Reporter credits to the Kern River dis- trict in 1901 a total of 3,870,000 barrels from 184 wells; to the Los Angeles fleld 1,250, 000 barrels from 1013 wells; to the Sum- merland_djstrict 128,000 barrels from 297 wells. The possible output of the Kern River district is estimated at 8,750,000 bar- rels per annum. The amount of oil ifr storage in all the fields is stated at 1,500,- 000 barrels. The Reporter furnishes th2 following tabulated statement concerning the wells and production of several Cali- fornia fields in 1901: Producing Productlon, Producing Fields— Wells. ~ Barrels.

Benjamin, in Major's Maga- zine, writes that the Texas gushers have an aggregate capacity of 3,000,000 barreis per day, which is eight' times the daily output of the world for the vear 1800. Mr. Benjamin makes an _interesting _state- ment, which has local bearing: “The cost of transportation in Texas,” he says, “is about 35 cents per barrel for a distance of 1000 miles when measured by the freight rate on a ton of coal. This will permit of the delivery of fuel oil_equal to a ton of coal to all points in the South- ern States for about §1 Coal is wortn from $350 to $450 per ton in most of the important centers of the South.” 'he following has also interest to pro- ducers of this State who are looking to new demands for oil to insure them. a market for all their output: Governor Sayres has ordered the State pur- chasing agent and all superintendents of State Institutions to adopt oil, instead of coal and wood, for fuel. In these institutions, where ex- periments have been carried on, It has been found that the saving under present prices and rates of transportation is about 40 per cen.. This will mean a great reduction for the Stat in the item of expense, amounting to something like $8000 annuaily. It Is confl. dently predicted by oll men that the price of fuel oll will be reduced about 40 per oen{, thus making three and a half barrels cost $1, plus transportation charges. As the fleld is more thoroughly developed competition will fix a much lower value than these 1gures. B. F. Brooks of the executive board of the Associated Oil. Company has been in- terviewed by the Los Angeles Times. The substance of what he sald is reported in the Times as follows: We will start off with an assured Income of better than £1.000.000 the frst vear. This sum will be derived from the fllling of con- fracts heretofore held by the several concerns Which have made up the associated company. As less than 15,000,000 shares of stock have been -issued, all in exchanse for land and per- ! at a depth of 1307 feet. property; dividends aggregating mors than 6 per cent of the par value of the stock will be declared. This is a certainty, and it will have its effect on reluctant companies who. have chosen to remain on the outside. The in- vitation to them to join the combine at the appraiser’s value of their properties is a stand- ing one and we confidently expect that g num- ber will accept before long. All along the line, wherever there are oil properties,‘there has been an attempt during the last week to get an' expres- sion of views from the officers of the As- soclated Oil Company. President C. Al “anfield told the Bakersfield Californian in an interview that the Associated Ofil Company will benefit the industry and be an advantage to Bakersfleld. ‘““The con- ditions have been very bad,” sald Mr. Canfield. “Unless something is done to help the ofl interests there willybe a lot of bankrupts owning oil lands and oil wells. 1 believe the combine will be of great. assistance to the industry and to the city of Bakersfleld as well.” The Los Angeles people have come to the conclusion that there is no third oil sand in the local fleld. The Los Angeles Herald gives an account of the experi- ment upon which this opinion is based as follows: After the expenditure of much time and money it appears to have been determined that there.1s no third ofl sand in the Los Angeles fleld: .That, at least, s the conclusion arriverd at by a number of the prominent operators, who base their opinion upoy the experlence of Mesars, Lemberger, Moody ahd Phillips in sink- ing their well on First street. The triowf oper- ators named have been drilling a_well ou.First street, between Belmont and Union avenues on the Deal lot, and struck & fair flow of oil in the second sand. They then had what was considered a fifteen-barrel well, but the firm was desirous of testing whether a third sand aid not exist, which, if reached, would assure a more prolific and longer lived well. For the Purpose of testing the matter drilling was con- tinued, but now the well is being abandoned For the last 100 feet the drill has been king in a water sand a: white as that bordering the sea, and this 1s accepted as demonstrating that' there is no third ofl sand in the local field, this well be- ing the deepest of any drilled. Messrs. Lemberger, Moody. and Phillips are now having the casting drawn from this test well, and_ are .about to begin a new well on their leasé on Adobe and Bernardo streets. A gocd deal of disappointment is felt at this fallure on_ the part of Messr= Lemberger, Moody and Phillips to reach a third sand, but the result appears to be conclusive, Whether it will be accepted as a finality, however, re- mains to be seen. Many of the shallow wells have been deepened, with advantage, and it may be that, reasoning by analogy, ‘some of these producers will not yet surrender the Idea that at greater depth even better results may be attained: GROWDG CHEER ADMIRAL SGHLEY Distinguished Naval Offi cer Welcomed in the South. SAVANNAH, Ga., Jan. 1L.—Rear Ad- miral Schley held a levee in the City Hall this afternoon for over an hour. He was escorted to ‘the building by Mayor Meyers and a delegation of Aldermen, and was accompanied by Mrs. Schley and General and Mrs. Willlam W. Gordon, at whose residence he and Mrs. Schiey are visiting. Bull street from General Gordon's resi- dence to the City Hall was lined with people, and as the carriages bowled along the, cheering kept pace with the vehicles. Nearly every store along the routs showed -a _United States flag. At the City Hall, which was covered with bunting, a squad of mounted police- men -had difficulty in holding the crowd back.. The admiral bowed and smiled in response to the demonstrations along the route. The reception was held in the couneil chamber of the City Hall, which was handsomely decorated for the occasion with flags and palms. A line was formed and the multitude pressed in to greet the admiral and assure him of their respect and esteem. Workingmen, as well as bankers, merchants and professional-men, were in the line. There were several thousand women, some in silks and some in the dress of the poorer classes. To each the admiral gave a hearty hand- shake. During the whole hour the streets around the City Hall were packed, and when the admiral came out he found the crowd as large and as enthusiastic as when he went in. Many. of the people gathered at Genmeral Gordon's residenmce and - cheered the admirat as he'went up the steps. : - ANNUAL CLEARANCE SALE. _ 20 (o) " & 6. GUMD C0, * S: ART GOODS, PICTURES, .
