Fre- quently when out driving I would become so exhausted that it seemed that I would die before I reached home. I was also troubled with sinking spells at night which left me so weak that I thought I could mot live until morning. I was in this deplorable condition when one day Dr. Miles' Nervine was brought to my notice. 1 had little faith in proprietary remedies but determined to give the Nervine a trial. After the second dose of the Restorative Nervine I was able to sit at the table and eat a meal, something I had been unable to do for many days. 1 have since taken a number of bottles of Nervine.

L e e el FINE SUSPECTS ALARM A CAMP |One of Them Gets Sup- ply of Food and Joins the Others. GRASS VALLEY, Aug. 21.—Great ex- citement prevailed lastnight in the neigh- borhood of Shebley’s sawmill, on Green- horn Creek, over the appearance of a band of men supposed to be the Folsom escapes. Just at dusk a stranger walked | out of the brush to the camp cookhouse and asked for food. The Chinese gave him a quantity and the stranger left. He was quiet in demeanor and apparently houses forced to leave their homes for tha night. The flood soon passed away down the valley and this morning people re- turned to their homes. Considerable dam- age was done to property of all kinds, including the railroad. —_—— GIRL DIES FROM BLOW ON HEAD WITH GOLF BALL Bertha Harman, Aged Fourteen Years, Succumbs to Injury Re- ceived While Watching Play. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 2L.—After lying unconscious since last Tuesday, Bertha Harman, aged 14 years, died last night in a hospital here from the effects of a blow on the head with a golf ball. The child was watching the play on the Sha- ron Hill links, near here, when the ball struck her, fracturing the skull. She fell unconscious and lingered In that condi- tion until death ensued last night. L e B e e e ] ) very tired. Two men at the mill who saw the stranger state that he wore a false beard. He carried no arms. An employe of the mill followed the man down the tramway a quarter of a miie, where he joined four others, all of whom were heavily armed. The mill hand therefore became alarmed and retraced his steps in a hurry. The men disap- peared down the tramway toward Kitts old station, and evidently went out of the county by way of Colfax. The same gang is reported to have been seen near You Bet before appearing at the mill. This leads to the belief that they are the same men who appeared at Glen Alpine last week and that they are now doubling on their trail, as the route they came leads from that direction through a sparsely settled and heavily wooded country, and minerals is now in the hands of the State Printer and will be issued after the quicksilver bulletin. It will be issued un- der the title of “A Bibliography Relating to the Geology, Paleontology and Mineral | Resources of California.” The statistical | sheet, which is yearly issued by the bureau, showing the production of the various minerals mined in the State by counties, has nearly been completed for the year 1%02. Much care has been exer- cised in the collection of reliable data, which will give full credit for the min- eral production of California for the past year. It will be placed in the hands of the State Printer before September 1. PROGRESS OF MINING. . The Independence gravel mine, near Angels, Calaveras County, has been start- ed up and the workmen are sinking tie shaft. The purpose of the management, as announced, is to go down to a depth equal to that of the bedrock of the chan- nel and then drift into the channel. Work will be resumed on the Fanny Marie and | Bluejay mines, in Calaveras County. Development work is proceeding regu- | larly at the Bradford quicksilver mine, in San Benito County. The depth of 175 feet | has been reached and values in cinnabar are shown. The capacity of the De Lamar smelter, in Shasta County, will be doubled. The present capacity is one furnace that turns out 150 tons of ore per day, or is able to do that. Preparation has been made by the Bully Hill Company to treat greater quantities of ore than formerly were handled. It is roasting in the open air. Work on the Blue Ledge copper mine, in Siskiyou County, near the Oregon State line, is reported to have been dis- continued. The reason assigned is that the development is not good enough con- sidering the price that was asked for the property. The mine has been under bond to P. Clark of Spokane for $250,000. According to Siskiyou County papers -— the Milwaukee Mining Company, which bought the McKinley, New Discovery and Mount Lily quartz mines, on Humbug Creek, near Yreka, has also bonded the Golden Jubilee and other mining claims in the same vicinity. The Rawhide mine, at Jamestown, Tuo- lumne County, Is; doubling the capacity of its cyanide plant. It will be able to handle 100 tons per day. A sale of mining property in Yuba County is reported. East St. Louis men have purchased the New Blue Point mine, southeast from Smartsville. The mine will be hydraulicked under permission of the Debris Commission. COUNTY GIVES BONUS. According to the Mining and Scientific Press the encouragement to be given to mining companies to build a road in Stan- islaus County from the mines to Westley | and to erect firebrick and tiling factories at Westley is a bonus of $12000. The combination of mining companies to work in this direction includes the Martel Com- pany, which owns the Red Mountain dis- trict magnesite mines; the James Manga- nese Mining Company and the Phosnix Quicksilver Mining Company, owned by | E. P. Newhall and Alvinza Hayward. Ten new stamps have been put in op- eration at the Union blue gravel mines, in Nevada County, above North Bloom- fleld. The company now has twenty stamps in its mill. * The Sunshine, Coarse Gold, Hillside, Arthur and University mining claims, at Bodie, are reported to have been sold to W. and E. C. Provost, who pay $75,000 for the properties. The Oroville Register says: Frank Loomis writes from Franklin Hill that the San Jose company Ras lald the material on_ the d for a fivgstamp mill, and ‘t will Dot be very long re they are crushinz ore. Two other properties owned by the same company are being prospected and developed. John Thomas, formerly of Oakland, has the old Ross mine bonded and will begin active operations soon. About twenty Chinamen are working on the south branch near the old Pooly place, and from all accounts are doing well. Prospectors abound in that part of the country this season, and there may be geveral more good mines located before the ‘winter snow falis. A gravel vroposl!lcn of some size is re- fported by' the Nevada County Miner, which gives the following particulars: Dr. J. A. Jeftery of San Franciseo, president of the South Yuba Mining and Development Company, and C. W. Porterfield, the manager, will return to-day to the company's claim, just east of Omega. The company is inaugurating one of the most extensive gravel mining enter- prises yet undertaken in Nevada County. It has secured some 1500 acres of valuable land along and contigwous to the Omega Channel and has purchased the Blue Tent water rights and canal system. A complete sawmill plant has been installed and the machinery was started this week. This fall and next summer it will construct over five miles of flume be- tween the source of supply at Bear Valley, on the South Yuba River, and the town of Omega and will put the ditch portions of the system in first-class repair. The flume is to be 4x6 feet in dimensions. —————— Happy Reunion of Three Brothers. NAPA, Aug. 21.—J. Revnolds of Napa had the pleasure of meeting with his two brothers, B. N. and James A. Reynolds, in San Francisco a few days ago. B. N. Reynolds is from Atlantic, lowa,.and James A. Reynolds lives in Santa Cruz. The brothers met for the first time in forty years at the Grand Army of the Republic Encampment. —_—————— Alderman Killed in Runaway.

Special Dispatch to The Call VALLEJO, Aug. 21.—The finding of an old tin can that contained gold coin worth over 3500 was the agreeable experience of a laborer here yesterday. The lucky man, with others, was en- gaged excavating for the foundation of the proposed Sailors’ Clubhouse, upon the lot purchased by Captain B. H. McCalla out of his Spanish-American -war prize money. The man who found the money is named Leichter. ! The find of this can of gold revives the story that the late Charles Murphy, who was a prominent contractor here in early days and formerly owned the lot referred to and lived thereon for many years, one night hid a large sum of money about the premises, but was not afterward able %o locate it. Yesterday's find and the circulation of the Murphy story have made popular the work of excavating for the Sailors’ Club- house and there are many requests for ‘employment.
