A Strange Tribe.

There has recently been discovered
In the Peninsula of Lower California
tribe Of IndiaRs that have, without
doubt. lived for centuries in some 80
clndrd spot in that portion of the
Weatern Continent. 1t is, indeed, a
strange race, and it will be hard to
determine the origin of these people,
as they are very ignorant especially as
to any evidence regarding their ancest.
ors. As a race, they are of larger
form than any other on this continent
except the giants of Patagonia. They
are OF fierce war like nature. and are
supppaed to be cannibals, as they pre-
fer to eat meats of all kind 10 its raw
or'naturai state and eat decomposeG
flesh with arelish. They speak the
Turkish language exclusively, and
that is fact which cannot be under.
stood as there has never been colony
of Turks in that part of the country.
A Turk who has convsrsed with then
says they SPEAK that tongue rs fluent
" Is any one direct from the Ottoman
Empire. They threaten TO give troub.
ie to settlers on the Southwestern Dor.
der, and It is no playful matter for a
few unprotected settlers to have war
with fierce baud of canuibals whose
average height is sig feet four inches.
Po determine the origin of this tribe
will furnish an Interesting study, to
some devoted Archenlogist.

Valuable Mines.

There has been but little written or
published regarding the riches of Haw.
thorne District. If khis District was
In any other place .bu. Nevada il
would have had, before this, aworld-
wide fame as q rich and valuable
mining country, and instead of being
but thinly settled and under mo pro.
gressive stage of development, as 1t is
atpresent, it would be oTer.crowed
with eager spectators and companies
who would not.cease to furnish capital
to thoroughly develop its numerous
and valuable prospects until their val.
ne was determined. There are mines in
Hawthorne District that have not been
equalled in the out put of rich ore in
any other mining district on the Pacific
Coast There are also, many claims
yet undeveloped, having never been
worked to any extent, which show
prospects Of nnestlmated value. Among
these are series of claims, three Of
which are the Daley, Nellie and North
Star. owned by several persons, consfi
tsting a company known Is VA North
Star Consolidated Mining Company
Each of these claims contain 1000
linear feet of ground. lying close to
gether and situated about two miles
south of the famous Lapanta NINE in
that district. On the Daley there is a
shaft forty feet in depth, with twenty
inch ledge at the bottom which assays
$3 per ton in gold, with hanging
wall of limestone formation and
foot. wall OF sandstone.
The Nellie mine has shaft twenty
feet In depth, with two-foot ledge OF
gold ore, the average assays OF which
are from $18 to 500 a ton. The North
Star has a shaft the total depth Of
which Is forty-'wo feet, with a gold
bearing vein seventeen feet in width.
assaying from $50 to $751;. There Is An
abundance of timber within two miles
Of these mines and a sufficient qiian.
tity Of water for milling purposes.
The owners of this property are not
possessed of the necessary means with
which to work it to an advantage and
consequently these mines are idle at
present The BULLETIN has been in.
formed by responsible authority that
the Company owning these mines will
take out. shin and mill at its own
expense, Ave tons of average ore as
sample, to show the value Of the pro-
perty to any person or company that
may wish to invest in mines in Haw.
thorne District. and then. if they are
satisfied with the result, the owners
will sell on extremely easy term. If
