All shooting dogs should retrieve. Re
trieving should be taught by force, but
still taught gently, so as to make the dog
a cheerful retriever. Nothing is more
disgusting than to see dog retrieving
With his tail between his legs and coming
in as if expecting a whipping. A good,
cheerful anxious retriever is best made
by teaching the dog to carry something g
n his mouth while with one on hi;
walks. He soon gets proud of the act,
ard when he retrieves his bird he will
come in on the run with head up and tail
vagging. He should be good at finding
crippled birds and should take the foot
scent and follow them until overtaken.

trict, together with a number Of ada
cent properties, and known as the Pie
dad group, has been bonded to Los
Angeles company, says the Lower Cali
fornian, Of which Ex-Governor Mark
ham of California is a member.
Mr.. Louis F. Kwiatkowski who has
passed quite portion of the past year
on the Peninsula, Is the local representa-
tive of the company, and he and Mr.. w.
F. Schroeder of Los Angeles, who is
also interested in the mines, were in En-
senada last week preparing to COM
mence developments.
Considerable work has been done in
the Piedad mine in the past few years.
The shaft is down $50 feet with quite
extensive drifts and cross cuts, and
there is a five stamp mill on the prop
erty.
About q year ago there wasan attempt
at a sale with rather unsavory COM
plications, since which time all work has
been suspended. 1t is only recently that
this unfortunate tangle Of affairs has
been Strengthened out and now that the
mine has been secured by company for
the honest purpose of development some
decisive results may be anticipated In
the district. Besides the Piedad mine
the company has acquired number OF
promising prospects in the same vicinity
more or less developed. and Mr.. Kviat-
kowski states that work will be COM
menced Immediately with large force
of men.
Senior Manuel Angulo Of Ensenada,
Lower California, has arrived In Los
Angeles. The gentleman is the owner
re Cf uQ 1vro q In
the Jacalitos mining district. One of his
best prospects is the Guata, which has
been developed to a considerable extent.
Assays recently made from some of the
ore went as high as $3.50 per ton. For the
past two years Senior Angulo has been
opening up these properties, the ore be-
ing worked by means of an arrastra,
and during that time he has not wanted
for ready cash.
AT the Aurora mine in the Alamo they
are still cross-cuttlng for the ledge on
the 14O-foot level. The indications are
very favorable for their striking the pay
shoot in a short time. Last week they
struck fine body of quartz in the cross
cut on the 1S0-foot level in the Monte
yuma mine. 1t prospects very fine, and
at the present writing they have not de-
termined how wide the vein is They
have gone in three feet but have not yet
struck the foot wall. In the Buena Vista
Joe Goyette, the owner, has struck .
fine 21a a-foot ledge at depth Of sixty
five feet. Many samples of this ore are
full of free gold and the general average
Is in the neighborhood Of 500 per ton.
Work was commenced last week on the
air compressor to run the Rand drills In
the Aurora and Montezuma mines, and
as soon as the balance of the machinery
arrives these properties will start in OH
a. large scale.

fled by wire yesterday that his famous
Great Dane Juan had captured both the
first and special prizes for his class at
the Victoria, B. c., bench show There
were three San Francisco dogs in the
lists for these prizes and some of them
were among the best in that city. The
victory places Juan in the Challenge

AT the recent meeting of the American
Kennel club number of radical changes
were made iE the assificationS for
bench shows, the new being much more
complicated than the old rules. Some of
the new rules will work hardship to
the smaller owners of fine dogs, since,
under them, nothing is to be gained in
making open class winnings except the
few dollars offered as prizes an6 all dog
owners do rot show their dogs alone for
the money there is in it. The new classi-
fication prevented the entry of number
Of California dogs at Victoria last week,
ard their effect will doubtless be felt in
all future shows on the coast.

The furnace of the Boston-Nevada
company's smelter at Yerington, Lyon
county, Nevada, was blown in last week.
Everything went off like clock work,
not hitch, not change in any part oil
the work. Every man knew just what
was expected. of him, and when the mat
ter was in the mould. H. A Keller, a
prominent metallurgical and mining en-
gineer of San Francisco, one who has
had over fifteen years experience in
Leadville and Butte, complimented Mr..
o. B. Hardy, under whose supervision
this smelter was erected, that no change
was necessary at the test.
Mr.. Keller says that it is very seldom
that new works of this kind are started
up without number of changes being
necessary before the plant can be sue
cessfully operated, and that the success
full operation of this smelter is due to the
knowledge and management of Mr..
HARDY. The plant is large one, and so
constructed that another furnace can be
added with but very little expense.
There are about fifteen men working

IN THE PRIZE RING

There will be an abundance of pusi-
lism in Los Angeles this week. Tomor-
row night at Hazards pavilion the
Stelzner- McAuliffe match will take
place and before it there will be num-
Der of preliminary bouts between local
boxers. Friday night two fights will
take place there in addition to the usual
curtain raisers" In the fight tofnor-
row night the patrons of that class OF
sport will be given an opportunity to see
whether such events in this city are to
be successful. The success of these fu-
ture events will not depend upon the
large attendance at this one fight. but
wholly upon the actions of the men them
selves. There have been altogether too

they can do, the purses will not be paid
and that any person in the audience who
is not satisfied with the sport furnished
will receive his ticket money back upon
demand at the box office. This appears
to be all that could be asked, but If to-

There is an abundance of ore about the

Carl Kuntz recently discovered some

which is ribbon quartz. are very rich
in coarse gold. While no assays of the
ore have been made, it Is estimated that
it will run $1,000 per ton. These lodges
crop out very boldly, but miners and
prospectors have tramped over them for
years. Mr.. Kuntz has men engaged now
doing the title work to this claim.
