1t seems somewhat strange, says the
Express, that Stafford ores can be shipped
to Salt Lake City and worked at
less rate than in our sister town Eu-
reka, though such appears to be the
fact. 1t seems to us that satisfactory
terms could be made with the E. 4 p.
road and the smelters at Eureka by which
our ores could be shipped to that place
and worked at a profit. At least a fair
test can be made, and we are informed
that Supt. Read Of he Eureka Con. is
willing to make such test and il possible
ascertain if our smelters can compete
with those Of Salt Lake. The E. & P.
road. we feel confident. will offer liberal
inducements, and in SO far as the expert
ment has never been tried, we suggest
that some of our mine owners ship q car
load of ore to Eureka, as it will prove the
means Of settling all further doubts in the
matter.

A Pretty Romance of How He Got
His Starter.

A Pretty Romance of How He Got
His Starter.
The following story, which no doubt
contains q good deal more fiction than
fact, is taken from . Boston letter:
A gentleman here tells o story Of how
Senator Jones Of Nevada made the founda-
ton Of his immense fortune. Through
some chance q man named Haywood, who,
by the way, was q "~Vermonter," became
the associate of Jones in a mining camp.
Haywood had = claim on the mountain
side which for q long time did not
seem to amount to much. One
day he came to Jones and said
that he was "broke," and wanted
to borrow $4,000, promising to make
both their fortunes. Jones said that there
we're a Thousand men in the mines who
were in exactly the same fix, but he said
he would lend it to him upon the condition
that he should ask no more. Said Jones !:
II will give you this money. I have So, 600
buried under the fireplace, and when the
fire goes out and my Chinaman leaves l
will get it for you" Haywood took the
money and said, when / strike it I will
give you a quarter interest,"" Then he re-
turned to his claim, and Jones thought,
of course, that he was just So, 900 be-
midland. A month passed by when
one evening Haywood burst into Jones'
cabin, perfectly wild with excitement, and
told him he had struck the richest vein
that he had ever seen. Both men ran to
the claim, and, sure enough, Haywood had
struck an immense "bonanzs," or pocket
Of almost pure gold. They sent for Eu-
gene Kelly at San Francisco, the
greatest mining expert Of the Pacific
slope, and he at once pronounced it
the richest mine in California. The
mine was afterward named the New
Amador, and is called the richest gold mine
in the world. Then Haywood sold his
property to Wells. Fargo, and other CAPT
| talists for SIS, 900, 900, and on the day Of
the sale he gave Jones 81, $50. 900. But
this was not all; one would have thought
that Jones would have been satisfied with
| that, but he wasn't, and he afterward quiz
city intimated to Haywood that he would
like another gift. This time it was not
money. but perhaps you can guess what
when 1 tell you that pretty Miss Haywood
is now Mrs. Senator Jones. Mrs. Senator
Jones is the daughter of Eugene Sullivan,
Port Collector Of San Francisco.

The Grand Exposition About 10
Take Place I'm New Mexico.
The SENTINEL acknowledges the receipt
OF an invitation to attend the Tertio-Mil-
lennial Anniversary celebration Of the set
Element Of Santa Fe, New Mexico. The
event is to be celebrated by q grand expo
sition Of the worlds productions in general,
and Of those Of New Mexico in particular.
Senator John A.. Logan will deliver the
opening address July 2, on which day the
exposition building will be thrown open to
the public, to be kept open until August
8. 1t is claimed that Santa Fe is the old
eat settlement in the United States, and
that this is the 333rd anniversary Of that
event. St. Augustine, Florida, has always
claimed to be the first permanent settle
ment in the United States, but Santa Fe
has superior claims, for Melendex, who
founded st. Augustine, did not receive his
commission from Philip ILL.,, Of Spain,
until 1865, while Cabeza de vaca's party
settled at Santa Fe Is years before,
In speaking Of it the Georgetown (Col.)
Miner says: "a varied programme has
been arranged for each day Of the celebra-
ton, including exhibitions Of Zunis, Nava-
jos, Apaches and Pueblo Indians; Mexican
games, orations. sports, races, barbecues
and q constant round Of entertainment.
Reduced rates are to be had on all rail-
roads. Tourists can take in the mineral
exhibit and all the attractions, run down
to Chihuahua and elsewhere in Mexico, do
all the Territorial points of interest and
get back to Denver in time for its August
exposition. To the far west, the Saturn

and baby giant region Of the globe. should
pilgrimages be made, and not the least
sought should be Santa Fe-City of Holy

attended, and il the stars be propitious a
