Commander ID. w. Mnllan, the

evening, and proceeded quietly in
a carriage TO the late residence Of
his mother on College Avenue and
Church Circle, where reside his two
sisters, aunt aud brother, his mother
having died on the day he reached
Samoan waters. The Baltimore
Sun editorially, pays Comman-
der Mullan the following high
compliment Commander Mullan,
who is native OF Annapolis, was
the only American officer who saved
his ship, the Nipsic. Maryland has
cause to feel proud OF such perfor-
nance on bis part Of one of her sons
and similar achievements on sea and
land have boen appropriately recog-
nized by the official action Of her
Legislature. AtSamoa Commander
Mullan not only showed the quail
ties Of a superior seaman and a
courageous man, but for months his
conduct of affairs at Apia had, pre-
yious to the disaster, prevented the
German officials from gratifying
their evident desire to appropriate
the entire control Of the island. -
With only the little Nipsic, sur.
rounded by the much stronger war
vessels OF an unfriendly nation, he
insisted that American rights should
be respected, and succeeded in carry
ing his point. It is to be expected
that be. will receive some substantial
reward from the Navy Department. =

ON HOPE HILL.

On HOPE HILL.
Among the undeveloped properties in
this district there are few that give
better surface indications than the
American Flag, which adjoins the Hope
company's property on the northeast
and southwest, and is owned by Messrs.
Collins & Bergeron. The Maggie G and
Garnet claims are also in the group, the
latter being the most valuable OF the
lot. On the Flag three tunnels have
been run, ranging from 40 to 100 feet IN
length. and in all the ore bodies are ex-
tensive. The discovery shaft was sunk
40 feet with streak of ore the entire
distance. On the Maggie G claim a
shaft was sunk 20 feet, also showing ore
from the surface to the bottom, where
the ore body is 10 feet wide, but beng of
low grade !, WI not pay the owners to
work it, while if it were in the hands of
a company it could be made pay hand
somely, and in some future day this will
likely be the result. They are now run
ming a tunnel on this claim and the
ledge is widening all the time. The Gar
net is owned by the above-named gen.
tlemen and A. A. Mcdonald. This
claim is not surpassed by any in the dis
trict with the same amount of develop
ment work done. A shaft has been sunk
about 35 feet, from which 300 tons Of ore
have been taken out and now on the
dump, with small amount of waste.
The ledge is at least 20 feet wide and
one of the handsomest we have ever
seen. A tunnel is being run and is now
in 100 feet and they expect to tap the
vein about 60 feet further in. The Gar
net joins the Porter claim on the south
west, which, as everybody is aware, is
the richest of the Hope company's
prl perty.
