Failing! That is what a great many people are doing. They don't know just what is the nutter, but they have a combination of pains and aches, and each month they grow worse. The only sure remedy yet found is Brown's Iron Bitters, and this by rapid and thorough assimilation with the blood purifies and enriches it, and rich, strong blood flowing to every part of the system repairs the wasted tissues, drives out disease and gives health and strength. This is why Brown's Iron Bitters will cure kidney and liver diseases, consumption, rheumatism, neuralgia, dyspepsia, malaria, intermittent fevers, t03 S. Paca Baltimore.

Nov. 28, 1881. I was a great sufferer from Dyspepsia, and for several weeks could eat nothing and Was growing weaker every day. I tried Brown's Iron Bitters, and am happy to say I now have a good appetite, and am getting stronger. Jos.

railed mines, but which tho merest tyro lu geology would have told ttu'tu could never by any pn.lhilit.y be de veloped into paving properties. lieu once tue reuulnite care, eu- eriry and intelligence- Is brought generally Into mining operations there will be as few failures us lu other legitimate business enterprises. One of the most successful tuluera whom I know commenced his career lu the mountains, after having re ceived a lilieral scleniinc education, by working In a mine as a common day laborer. After hav ing worked in many dltierent mines he became a sunerlntendent. lie next attempted to work a mine of his own, Iter having learned the business by live years work.

Though falling partially at first, he eventually succeed ed, lie is si ill actively engaged, though now worth minions. Clue sucn man In a company, with the management in his bands, is almost certain to In sure success. He will not ne guueu liy a propect hole, lie will kuow that only about one prospect hole in a thousand will turn out to be a rich working mine, and of tho developed properties ho will be able to tell on ex- amiuatlou whether further work can become remunerative. Another curse to the mining busi ness is the extravagant issue of stock. Many a mine would pay lair divi dends on a capitalization of JIIKI.IKHI, that fails on a capital of One of thebest'propertles that I know is capitalized at tiut it pays every year LI) per cent, on Its stock.

It is sale to say that not one nilmug com pany in fifty that is stocked for over ever brings its stock up to par. Many poor or comparatively poor people have been financially ruined by investing their hard earned money in mining stocks which never were worth the paper on which they were printed. As a rule it is heat to give all such schemes of plunder a wide berth. They are not all intended lor lrautls, but being inaugurated and managed by Incompetent men, they iuevitably must result iu failure. Auohky.

Which tame In our plain Knifllsh means A p-et isTi rl born, uoi made Bui Yankees have improved on ancient Aud now we have tv thing "ready made." Ourverv Tank, nation ready made, Made 'from lhe people Europe has thrown off, People of ev'rv circumstance and trade. But the Old 'World dare not at Yankees It once was thought a man to make a watch ust be at "rue both wondrous deft aud wise, But now thej're made a eacy we make nails. Cutout by the bushel with "drops" and Thus doctors, lawyers, priests, and men of note, Are "to order" made in school or Where wisdom's furnished to be learned by rote, Aud thus "to order'' they're slufled with knowledge. The very bread we eat is "ready made." And also many of the clothes we wear, Then is itol the self-same (trade Should be the poetry we read and hear A poet now's very fashionable For celebratlij)! a grand occasion, So whether or uot he may te able. He la made "to order" in our nation.

Thus am I the Jenah cast out, you see, Aud doomed to read you a i ocm at sight, Bo let tbe critics most lenient be. And blame the choice wnicn seiecw iiui aright. 'Forty centuries look down upon you," Once said Napeleon to his legions, 'Egypt's mighty pyramids behold you As you wage your battle In these regions. Not so with cur young Yankee nation, It's tender babvnood nas naraiy passcu, And still we've conquered many a nation Which ail the boary empires aia ouuaai. "Freedom to all" was the foundationstone On which our taint-re Dtiiu ooin uivou uu On which the structure we do still extend, Wiln noble outline anu wum rap, When from Atlantic forests came the cry I will hH rtCRth.

The Old World answered back with hollow mockery, And at such Impudence held her breath. But Tyranny too long had kent her sway. 1.

Billions of treasure were wasted. And a million of heroes laid low, Ere the while Hag of Peace was hoisted, And Rebellion would humbly bow. But "freedom to the glad watchword Which formed the colonial cry, 1b a trutn inscribed on onr banner, Though a million did sutler and die. America's name Is a power Respected abroad on the earth, Not aioue for her wealth and strength, But far more for her sterling worth. The fires of Liberty we kindled Have consumed the despots of France, And the dynamite that is threaten Makes the Russian Ciar look askance, While Ireland dreaming of Liberty, Neglects psylng her meed of rent.

Which great dereliction of duty Gives Britain's lion a discontent. For a government just and good All look to us for examrle. Let us pray we may not disappoint A nope ana a irusi so auipie. America thought to material things, Uu. nlvan It.

immHldrllll Wintrfl. Tin vtilsiuirtJnviii Hindustan Is nesro tomorrow in iuibihtuii mnu And the midnight press doth each enable To read the news at their breakfast table. It was Morse who first strung thought on a wlreJ-WNl3 And propelled it by the electric fire And rtwaJ Field who across the ocean hurled Atlantic's cable, the "Nerve of the world. Borne and Egypt, laboriously slow. Used but an old crooked stick for a plow.

Not so with Nebraska's sons of the mil, Lords of the manor, they ride a they toil. Two cities so large that each is a mart, By an arm of the ocean kept apart, Bridge over the chasm with a web of steel, And press across with a conqueror's heel, While white wing'd Commerce, with her sails all spread, Rushes unheeded 'neath the crowd o'erhead. Thus I might mention a thousand and one Of wonderlul things America's done, 'Midst the hurry of business strife and din, To improve and make all mankind akin, By compelling the material powers of earth To labor for man's material worth. And; in social science, where vast and grand Have been the Improvements as In our land When the Pilgrims first sighted Plymouth Rock, 'Twould have given the sturdiest saints a shock To refuse the strong, to rob the weak, Or the Master with slave his will to seek And even woman had little of right, Pave of Etifferance from masculine might But the slave's no longer known in the land, And shall never more feel the master's hand. While woman clamoring still for her right Has nearly outstripped man's masculine might.

She's demanding as a king on his throne, And likely ere long will run things aloue. She buys and she sells, Is farmer and doctor, Yea, even gets down to being a lawyer And naught's beneath the hopes of our ladles, TJnless it may be the care of the babies. And I here, where Nature's got a monopoly, They seem to buow a strange antipathy, But howl us man will, make fun as he may, He ne'er should desire their progn ss to slay. For the greater 1b woman's power for weal The more shall man its good influence feel. But let us not boast, we are but human, And of the same flehh as other men made, We are but actors on the stage of man, Whereoa by Uod only the plot are laid.

Whenever we stop, and calmly reflect, We see the same traits of humanity Which ever have been, and we may ever expect Will distinguish human society. "tlup clown, the hero, the villain and knave. And the rest, be they whoever they may," Shadow the character which mankind have, As we see them and meet them ev'ry Yes, we include all mank ind whom we see, Who consume their life in trying to seem Something else than what they ever can be, Deceiving themseives sud living a dream. We see theshoddyite prond of his wealth. Who has not the brains to fill a thimble, Trving to cover ignorance with pelf, The want of wit with thespecie's jingle.

the noisy, blatant politician Who hoists the flag of the brave reformer, XrvingUi attain unto position, By saying he only drlukscold water Or perhaps talks loudly of railroad rings, learnedly shows their sad reality, When in fact he speaksof tho very things Which have beeu part of Mb rascality. And the quack doctor who blistera and bleeds Not our bodlesonly but our purses worse, Who runs up a bill as much as he needs, And sends the remains away In a hearse. And the lawyer shrewd, who always finds ground, If the client's rich to support his ease, But when the verdict Is finally gained lie claims the lion's chief share in lhe chase. Tbe merchant, too, selling sand for sugar, Or pushing the scale to make Itgo down, Buying poor goods because they are cheApcr. Advertising gjod wares to all the towu.

And the rarmerselllng hlsSKcd fowls, Wrongly declaring I hem nder as When In reality tougher than owls, And nothing at best but aged hens. The minister, too, shall I spesk of him Who ought to lie guarding his little flifck, Indulging In secret "ncst-kidlng" sin, Instead of pointing to salvation's rockf And the ladles good, heaven bits" them all, 1 hate to criticise such angels fair, Rut still they do sometimes siumhle and fall Into trying to seem not what they aro. Wearing rich silks, which they cannot afford, Where a plain chIIco would look more tit.iCa Building their frlizos with talus hair downward. Or possibly painting iheir checks a bit. And lovers old, with their business stylos, Felpnlrg Innocence they do not possess, Each thinking- lhe other don't see their wiles When the blindest fools could their objects trues.

Humboldt Enterprise Leonard Bratt arrived In the city on last Sunday from Arkansas. He looks somewhat thin, giving one the impression that the fresh breezes of Nebraska are preferable to the ague laden atmosphere of Arkansas.

Columbus Journal A party of young folks passed a very enjoyable evening at Jacob Ernst's Tuesday of last week. A floor and seats bad been laid in the grove north of the dwelling, and wph dancing and refreshments the time was passed pleasantly. Humboldt Enterprise: Miss Ernestine Friend, of Atchison, niece of Morris Friend and Mrs. Joseph Sarbach, is visiting in the city. Her little friends gave her a pleasant surprise on Friday evening last.

We went down to take notes, but they ruled us out. We saw enough, however, to convince us that they bad a splendid time. St. Paul Phonograph The editor (A. A.

Kendall is expected home this week. He writes from Bennington, that be is having a splendid time, and that several friends will probably return with hiin. G. T. Kendall and wife, Mrs.

A. G. Kendall and George Morse, are in Bennington also and may all return together. Humboldt Sentinel The lawn sociable given by the M. E.

church at the residence of Charles Nims, on Wednesday evening, was one of the pleasantest events of the season. A large number were present, and they all seemed to enjoy themselves very well. Did space permit we would give a more extended notice. The net receipts were about $14. Hampton Journal The young people of Hampton assembled Friday evening of this week for an open air dance.

It was held in tbe building now in course of erection by Mr. Coskirk, of Aurora. Fair girls and brave men flitted through the mazes of the dance and all were merry. "Loud and louder the pipers blew, swift and swifter tbe dancers flew," Fremont Herald There was an Immense gathering at the wedding ceremonies at the residence of Henry Dierker, who lives )ust over tbe line in Cuming county, north of Webster precinct, last week. His daughter was married to a young man from Missouri, and thousands of dollars worth of presents were given.

Several hundred guests were present from both counties, and a grand social time was bad. Beatrice Express The tea party given on Thursday evening at the residence of Major Gieen, was attended by almut seventy-five peinons, and was one of the most pleasant social affairs of the season. The house was thrown open to the company, and with freedon of the grounds, and tables out of doors, the lack of restraint was quite noticeable. Mrs. Green Is an aimaole hostess, as the occasion showed.

Loup City Times Wednesday evening, Frank C. IngersoU received a telegram from Chicago announclngthe death of his wife, Mrs. Kinuia Iiigflrsoll. Frank started immediately for Grand Island, there to take the train for Chicago. Mrs.

IngersoU was highly respected in this community, where she resided for a number ot years and has legion of friends who lie pained to learn ot this estimable lady's sudden demise. Tectimseh Chloftain One of the most pleasant and enjoyable occasions of the season was the sociable at the residence of Hon. C. A.Holmes last Wednesday evening. The moon was at its height, the nigut dolli-loiis! cool and everything favorable Cor a good time.

The house has been recently improved and rearranged aud the party was a sort of house warming In good old-fashioned style. Ice cream, delicious cake, and "home-made" lemonade were served in unlimited quantities. Conrad's orchestra furnished music for willing feet. First Class Insurance.

'tinday afternoon a man drove Into the city in a spring wagon, and accompanied by a boy. He went to Ben Keeler'a bHrii, giving his name as Alex ander. Yesterday be tried to sell tho teitn and wagon to Sum Arbucklo, but did not succeed In making trade. Later he sold one horse to a man named Mitchell for 75, taking J5 down and stipulating that Mitchell should pay f.V) to lieu Keeler and be would forward it to Texas, where Alexander sd ho was going, llealsohad about bargained the other horse to Tom Beach on the same terms, and Bill Mallck and one or two others were contending as to who should gut the wagon. Hlierltl l.nslgn had viewed his move ments with suspicion all dav.

and Ins suspicions wero confirmed when the boy came to mm and told lilni the man had hired the team at Schuyler, representing mat ne wanted to come to Lincoln and drive up some cattle, and that he, the boy, had been sent with the team to see that It came back all ight. lhe shorn! inmodlate want In Ken. ler's baru and arrested Alexander, who declared atllrstthat the team was his. Sheriff Knalgti then went to the tele graph cilice, taking the prisoner with him, and telegraphed to the owners of the team at Schuyler. After he had finished writing tho telegram tho prisoner said he wished to send one.

He was given a blank and wrote a telegram staling that he had stolen a team and was under arrest, lie said this was to tils brother and signed his name W. llovey or W. C. Harvey, the sheriff does not remember which, and the operaler at the olllce would uot say. Alter writing this telegram the pris oner turned to Chief Beach, who had gone to tbe stable to see if the prisoner appearance agreed with a description of a horse thief he had received, and said: ou can thank your lucky slurs I did not have my guns when you came to the stable, for I would neyer have let you got to me." Tbe prisoner was taken to the sheriffs olllce, and immediately alter he entered said: "1 might as well tell you the whole business, uow that you've got mo.

The facta are Just this way I'm a cow-puncher, as you con see. I took a herd of ponies up on the Niobrara for Dillon, anil while 1 was up there I got the Imbues some whisky and they got ilruul. and gave mo awnv audi hail to skip. I went down to l'ort Fetter-man and the soldiers helped me build a raft and 1 lloaled down the river to Columbus, where my raft Htruek a pier of the bridge and went to pieces, and my pony, that was onj tbe raft with me, was drowned. I was busted whim I got to shore and among strangers, and I just concluded I would make a raise to get to Texas, and I got the team and brought it down here and was trying to sell It, and that is the whole story.

The boy's story Is all straight. He Is a good little boy and the smartest little chap lever run across. He done just right and I give hi in credit for it." The boy referred to was the one who came with him and had him arrested. He is twelve years old and his name Is Louis Keha. His people are Bohemian, but he speaks English perfectly.

When the prisoner was started off to jail he remarked regretfully to Sheriff Ensign, that If he had had his "guns" on him he would never have allowed him (the sheriff) to cross the street. He said he knew what was up when he saw him coming with the bov. and he would never have been taken alive lr lie had had his "guns." The prisoner Is astrong, athletic young fellow about live feet eleven inches nigh, with a light mustace and dark eyes. He was dressed in cow boy style, with a wide sombrero on bis bead. He is, evidently, simply a wild, dare-devil fellow, without any nice sense of discrimination between right and wrong, but with a big heart, as indicated by the hearty send-off he gave the little fellow, who will probably be the instrument that will send htm to the penitentiary.

A part of his story at least is undoubtedly true. Thb Journal published a week or ten days ago an account of the accident by which he lost his pony, taken from the Columbus Journal, and it was substantially as related by him. He says he has worked for Alexander and Dillon, and could get a Job at 175 a month from the Swan brothers whenever he wants it. He claims that be was nevea. guilty of such a trick before, and while he does not show any particular remorse, he seems to think that he wonld not have done it bad he not been in a state of general disgust over his bad luck.

His greatest regret seems to be that he did not have his "guns" and consetpiently did not acquit himself as a cowboy should. Gaddsen and Hill at Schuyler are the owners of the team and wagon. They have been telegraphed and will probably lie here today. A Steam Wheel. Plattamouth Herald.

This morning the Herald went up and interviewed Frank Morrison's steam wheel, which is no small wonder, and worth a description far more extended than the Herald can give. The inventiou does away with a ta tionary engine, applying the steam directly to the balance wheel, and if any think there is no power in the motive power thus made, they should see the invention In motion. Frank wants to secure a place down town to put it on exhibition, audit is well "ivorth seeing. Everybody, who no far has wituessed it work, believes there is big money in the Inventiou. Hard on the Justice.

Plattamouth Herald. From an old territorial statute of DvVJ, Mr. Beeson discovers the following section which is worth publishing, as will be see it Is rather rough on the justice "For the violation of the third section of an act to license and regulate the sale of malt, spiritous and vinous liquors, twenty-live dollars tine; and on proof of the violation of said section, or any part thereof, the justice shall render judgment for the whole amount of fines and cost, and be committed to the common jail until the sum is paid."

Liberty Is a plant which can only live In the pure sunlight of the human mind, 'Nealh tiieshadcof Vice it can neverthrive, Or the rank weeds of Passion shrink behind. Let then yourcanuou roar and crackers fizz, Proclaiming Liberty's worid-wide glory. But noise and boasting, and such things as this, Alone cannot uai our Liberty's story. Unceasing vigilance 's the price demanded Te purchase its priceless boon and favor, And if this vigilance evet's relaxed, It is useless fur its fruits to labor. Then let's not boast of our grandfather's deeds, But rather to study what we can do To supply the food which Liberty needs, So that it may thrive, and flourish, and grow Mines and Mining in New Mexico.

Santa Ff, New Mrxioo, I July, 17, 1SH3. Special Correspondence. To the naturalist no less than to the practical mining man the Tertio Is becoming daily more attractive. After beini? absent ten days I find all the departments better filled. This is especially true of minerals, the display of which is most creditable to the territory.

Most of the mineral districts are now represented by ores or bullion, or both, from their localities. Many of the mines, however, only woke up to the importance of such an exhibit, at the last minute. The projiortion of gold bearing ores to those of silver is larger than was seen at Denver a year ago. Many of them are very hign grades, running into the thou-Hands of dollars per ton for gold, with somesilver. Among the silver ores the chlorides lead.

There are, however, many flue sulphurets and some bromides acd carbonates of lead bearing silver. The great value of copper ores can be estimated from the fact that one group of mines, of whi-h the Longfellow is the chief, iu Grant county, in the southwest part of the territory, was recently sold for to an Knglish company, after an exhaustive examination. Few of the mines of New Mexico have yet been developed. 1 made several visits into a few of the mining districts, and especially into the San-dia mountains, east of Albuquerque. At the base of these there are thick beds Palaeozoic rocks, and their geological equivalents are at tbe top, and indicate a faulting of several thousand feet.

The sides of the mountains, aud some entire peaks, are freed from the stratified rocks, thus exposing the Archiean nucleus. This nucleus is composed of various kinds and degrees of tale slates and shales, syenites, greenstones, gneiss, porphyry aud granites. In the fissures and cavities of these rocks lodes of the precious metals and of copper occur. I examined a great many Erospect holes in this district, ut very few were developed sufficiently to indicate their real value. A few, however, that had deep shafts were seen to be rich in gold, or copper, and when once worked on a comprehensive scale and in a careful business way will make their owners wealthy.

Home of the best prospects on these Handia mountains are owned by our Lincoln neighbors, Col. Donovan, J. A. Marshall and others. From two of their silver aud lead lodes I obtained the finest anglesite (crystalized sulphate of lead) and carbonate of lead that has yet come to my notice.

These lead ores bear silver. The geological indications are that when these properties are once worked they will develop into remunerative mines. Mining as now carried on almost every where is rightly regarded as precarious business. Now, as ever, many men rush into mining operations who know absolutely nothing, even theoretically, about the business. For their own business they demand skillful employes, but when they go into mining operations they too often employ men who are as Ignorant of such work as they are themselves.

I have often known mining companies organized In the east to hire superintendents who never saw a mine before in their lives, and who could uot tell a piece of ore from a brick but. Disaster invariably must accompany experiments conducted Jy this way. Often, too, mining men have become the prey of so-called experts, who often are so ignorant of geology and mlner-alogy that they cannot tell one rock or formation from another. Men, after being lleecetl and fulling at this new business, generally denounce It as a lottery ora fraud. Dining this visit to New Mexico, as before In (Utlo-rado and Utah, I have found men who have spent small fortunes in develop clal Telegram to the Inter Ocean.

Coi.t'Mni Onto, July 28. The Indications are that from tb la time until th close of the campaign the lines will ba cloaely drawn, and the arguments on both sides, especially between the two gubernatorial candidates will be emphatically vigorous. At the republican county convention at Newark today Judge horker answered the question of Judge Hoadlv as fo tha Scott law being a finality by saving that be ooiild not say what the' republicans would conclude to do next year. Captain Foraker goes a little further and says to the democratic candidate that he objects to answering ciueallona across the state, and Issues an almost llrect challenge to Mr. Hoadlv to meet him In debate.

He would sneak at Coming next Wednesday, and would be pleased to divide his time with Judge Ib.sdly. Captain Foraker added that tiring at long range was not effective. and he always preferred to meet his op- oncnt face to luce in his speeches, udire Hoadlv has been nuttlnir ones- lions for Judge Foraker to reply to, and this having become monotonous, the captain intimated that a challenge to (lis- uss the Issues on the stump would be promptly accepted.

Waterman, of the city of Providence, R. for many the faithful and vig.lant night watchman of the Barstow Store Company's very extensive establishment, been confined to his home several weeks by a very distressing illness, on resuming his du ties again avails himself of this early opportunity for Btating briefly a few plain Mr. Waterman saj A few months ago I was taken down with a severe sickness, which confined me to the house quite a long time, and much of the time 1 was so very lame as to be unable to walk, and my left leg, from the hip to the toes, became monstrously swollen, and 1 suffered extremely from the constant intense pains produced by so great inflammation I was trying the various so-called cures, all the time, and was under the treatment of a physician seven weeks, but getting no substantial relief. At this time an old time friend, a police officer, called upon me, and during our conversation Informed me of the great benefit which he had obtained by the uee of Hum's Remedy, and urged me to try it, as he considered it a wonderful medicine. I commenced taking Hunt's Remedy, having very little faith that It would do much in such a stubborn case as mine, but my doubt was soon dispelled, for before I had taken one bottle began to got better, the severe pains disappeared, the Bwollen leg gradually decreased in sine, and I was encouraged to continue the use of the Remedy; and the improvement to my health continues, my appetite is good.

I have regained my strength, and I am now performing again my duties as watchman at the foundry. Every night I go up and stairs more than one hundred times, and am in good condition, and feel that my recovery is due to hunt's Remedy alone. My severe sickness and terribly Bwollen leg was caused by the diseased strife of my kidneys, and 1 think that it is a most valuable medicine that will so speedily relieve and cure sne.h a severe caoe as mine. I therefore most cheerfully rocommrrd Hunt's Remedy to all afflicted with Kidney Diseases, as I know it to ba safe and reliable remedy." Provioenck, Pec. B.
