FINDING A SILVER MINE.
TJio Wsoovory Jlrnlfi by Trio of Fro
pectora Who Wore nodding Indian*.
lChlcao Herald.^
Another sensational minlne discovery
■was made in 1875 in Arizona, but this was
a pure silver production. It was one of
the most interesting linds over made on
tiio coast. Three prospectors, Copeland,
Mason and another, were one day dodg
ing Indians in the neighborhood of Queen
creek, Pinal county, about fifty miles from
Florence. The Indians had been very
bad that year in that region and no pros
pector felt safe a moment. One evening
Copeland and party were looking for a
place to camp when all at once one of
their pack mules gave u snort, and with
ears pointed forward, stood Btoek stilL A
mules scent for un Indian is keener than
that of any dog for game, and the parly
knew there was danger ahead They dis
mounted and reconnoltercd.
While Copeland prepared to scout on the
sldo of a little, rise, ho tied his mule to a
dump of sago brush which grow in the
cleft of a ridge of Boat rock. While he was
gone something scared the mule, and the
kocr jerked tlio sagoltrush up and started
down tho canon. The party lo
cated a “rancheria" of Indians a mile
oil and wisely beat a retreat undiscovered.
A half a mile away they picked up tho
mule, the sago brush still bunging to his
bridle. Copeland detached it and was
about fthrowing it away when something
clinging to tho roots attracted his atten
tion. ft was a piece of shattered white
quartz, as big as a walnut, the disinte
grated mass being held together by a per
fect network of pure white silver threads
tho size of a number eight wire. !■ onus
of this roots of the hush ran through the
quartz and firmly attached it The party
were greatly -excited, but they did not
then dare go back on account of tho In
dians. They staked tins locality, and
Copeland fairly cudgeled his brain to im
press upon it the exact spot he had ties 1
his mule.
Two weoks after they ventured back
and to their joy found the coast clear.
For several hours they searched among
tho rocks and scoria of the vicinity, ana
at last Copeland found the placo where
tho sago brush had been torn upi A few
minutes digging revealed the crown of
tho most beautiful silver quartz ledgo
any of tbo prospectors had ever seen.
They dug for several days on tbo spot
and laid bare a section twenty feet long
and ton foot wide. Tho vein wts witJuiut
foot or hanging wall, was of pure while
quartz, with streaks of native silver (pure
and blotches of black sul
phurcts running all through it.
This was the discovery of tho famous
Silvor King mine of to day. This mine
hat a peculiar interest from tho fact that
so many public men of note invested in it.
Unlike most silvor mines, tho Silver
King has yielded for a number of years.
It is not so profitable as of old. however
Tho mine has paid since 1870 $1,500,000
In dividends, and has produced something
iiko $0,400,000 in silver. Mrango to say,
the ledgo stands alone by itself. Scores
of locations have been inndo around it,
but uothing has ever been found in any of
them. If any other evidence were needed
to prove llmt mining for the precious
metals is a game of chance tho history of
tlio Silver King deposit ulono would
prove it.
Co-Oporntive Pleasure Excursions.
(Brooklyn Eagle “Lounger.”]
T> erv mun cannot own n yacht, uc
fortuun ely, and tho yuchts now in coin
miss o.i are far too few and small to ac
commodate all tho lovers of yachting,
int I two seasons ago no adequate provis
loa was niado for tlio great body of lov
ors of sea sports who could neither get
i incqs on jnolits or who had no crafts of
their own. This is all very happily ar
ranged now: and the great steamboat re
sources of New York have boon taken ml
vantage of. AH sorts of schemes were
put in practice during tho Mew York club
regatta Thursday., Cue of tho most sue
cessl'ul parties consisted of a dozen men
who “chip(Hid in” and lmd a tugboat,
luncheon, two baskets of champagne and
a rattling good time generally on some
thing less than sls aploca All of them
wore accompanied by ladies, and undis
turbed by tho outside populace, they
were quite as happy us tho owners of
, yachts themselves.
This co operative principle is very pop
ular now among men of moderate means.
It lias resulted in dining clubs, where each
member pays his own sh ire. Siul all sorts
of little excursions are taken at a small
cost per capita.' It is really less expensive
than going alone in some instances For
instance, a Jot of men hired a coach and
went up to jHoromo park last racing day
and the cost was only $7 apiece As an
illustration of the loss which almost in
variably attends playing tho races only
one man out of twelve canto out ahead.
He invested to the extent of SbO or S.O,
hud a streak of good luck and came out

“ I never see ft man take a drink inn

of a queer little incident that happened
me oucc. .1 ust as we started to work olio
evening—I was workiug with a switch
crow then—somebody called us over to
the saloon to have n drink. I was in a
hurry to get to work on time, but; ns it
wasn't often wo got a treat 1 rushed over
and hurried up to the bar and said: ‘I
want a little whisky, and us I'm in a
hurry I won't wait for the rest of you.
•but will take my throe lingers right oil.'
Those were the exact words 1 used. I
had'cause enough to remember them, for
ten minutes later, as 1 was ranking my
lirst coupling, I was careless, on account
of the whisky I’ve always believed, and
this was the result ” Here the brnkemnn

' MULLEIN l-EAVES IN CONSUMPTION.
What Die Doctors Bay—Of Value In tho
Karllor stages—How Used.
(Scientific American.]
Dr. Quinlan, of Dublin, read before the
International Medical congress at Copcn
hagcsi last yew an interesting paper on
tho medicinal qualities of the mullein. It
has attracted widespread attention, and
among the more recent articles confirma
tory of Dr. Quinlan's statements is one by
Dr. Wflfert, of Cincinnati, which appears
in the Inst number of The Lancet and
Clinic of that city. From the results ob
tained in 127 eases of pulmonary con
sumption treated by Dr. Quinlan with
mullein alone, he draws the following
conclusions, which nre condensed from
liis original article, viz,:
1. In the earlier and pretubercular
stage of pulmonary consumption, mullein
has a weight-increasing and curative
power greater than that of cod liver oil,
and equal to that of Hessian koumiss.
2. In cases where tubercles are well es
tablished or cavities exist, the mullein has
great power in relieving cough—a great
boon to consumptives, whose weak atom
aclis too fre uently can not tolerate the
usual cough remedies.
3. I hthisical diarrh ia is completely
obviated by tli6 mullein.
4. Mullein has no power or effect on tho
night sweats of consumption, which
should be combated by atropia sul
phate.
The method of using the mullein, which
originated among the Irish peasantry and
was adopted by 1 >r. Quinlan just as he
found it, is as follows: Three ounces of
tho fresh green leaves, or about ten times
that much of the dried, arc boiled in a
pint of fresh cow s milk. After boiling a
moment the infu ion is allowed to
stand and “sipe” for ten minutes,
when it is strained, sweetened and
drunk while warm. This quantity is taken
twice or three times a day. It is gener
ally much relished by the patients, who
regard it as a pleasant article of diot
rather than as a medicine. The smoke
of the mullein inhaled into the respira
tory passages relieves irritation and spas
modic cough.
Dr. Wilrcrt states thftt ho has followed
Dr. Quinlan's method in twenty cases of
undoubted pulmonary phthisic, all of
them more or less advanced, and ail im
proved during the administration of mul
lein, no other drugs being used. These
results arc certainly very encouraging,
and should be followed up.

(Old Indian Cure)
Ih taking the lead of all other blood purifiers
with astonishing rapidity. Is an honest old
reliable medicine, unimpaired by modern
tampering or adulterations.
Asa blood purifier it is absolutely without
an equal.
Asa tonic and appetizer, eminently adapted
to female complaints, it has the indorsements
of the most respectable ladies in the land.
PRACTICING PHYSICIANS INDORSE IT.
Dr F. A.Toomer, Perry, Ga.,says: “I have
used it In my practice twenty-five y ears. It Is
a perfect blood purifier, an infalible ]eclflc
for the diseases for which it is rec
ommended, a fine tonic and appetizer, and a
Godsend to suffering women for their peculiar
ailments.”
I)r Joseph Palmer. Feagln, Ga., writes us:
“It Is as great a specific for blood diseases as
quinine is for fever. Have used it more than
twenty years fn my practice.”
H. w. W. Smith, Ecbeeonnee, Ga., writes:
“It cured me of an old and severe case of
scrofula of eight years’ standing.”
W. B. Jobson, Macon. Ga, says; “It cured
me of a long and painful attack or Rheuma
tism.”
In conclusion the proprietors say' they have
yet to meet with the first failure of O. I. C. to
do all that is claimed for it.
