Deafness Cannot be Cared
by local applications as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in-
flamed condition of the mucous linh~ of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when ~t ~s entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal condi-
tion, hearing wall be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which ie
nothing but an inflamed conditton of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for cir-

Believe They Have Found the Lost Phil-

Del l~orte, Colo., Aug. 27.~Some pros-
pecting has been going on lately away
up on the head of South Fork, twenty
miles from the river, and with seeming
good results.
The latest to report from that country
are John Million and Sherry Farre]l, and
they think they have certainly found and
relocated the lost Phillips mine and also
a claim located by a party of railroad en-
gineers away back in the '70s--about
1876 or 1877.
Mr. Million has personally located the
Phillips mine, and he says everything
tallies perfectly with the description left

The walls are porphyry on one side and
gray granite on the other. Phillips is
supposed to have located this claim
! twenty-two years sgo.
The old Engineers claim, relocated by
Mr. Farrell, is three miles from the Phil-
lips claim, and was identified by railroad
stakes and other things about the claim.
The camp will be known as Phillips
camp, and prospectors who feel so in-
clined will be given a chance to get in on
the ground floor.
Messrs. Million and Farrell will return
soon and continue work. They are great-
ly elated over their locations, and rather
think the place may develop into a good
camp.
The route lies up the East fork of the
South Fork of the Rio Grands, and is on
the line of an old railroad survey made
many years ago. Mr. Million has been
in the new country off' and on for ten
years and knows every foot of it.
When James Phillips came out of this
same section about 1876 or 1877,"\Vhis per-
ing Jim" Lowry and Mr. Farrell met him
at South Fork and saw the three varieties
of ore and Mr. Farrel is positive that
the ore from the Million loocaiion is iden-
tical with that brought in by Mr. Phillips.
Ben Lovell, an old prospector, aged 68,
was found in this same territory last
week by Messrs. Million and Farrell.
He is hale and hearty and evidently con-
tented. He has tried the Klondike and
doesn't think much of it.
Everything seems to point to some
active mining work in this section, es-
?ecially if the old Phillips and Engi-
neers claims turn out well, and it will
not surprise many of our prospectors if a
bonanza is uncovered up that way one of
these days.
In the meantime nobody is barred
from going into Phillips camp and try-
/ng his luck.--Denver Times.
