Precipitates the Gold Fever in
Greenville.
MIR. LOWRY'S EXPERIENCE.
Any Sort of Man Can Dig
100000 Out of the Earth i'm
Six MOnths-A GreenvilIe Par
ty to Make the Trip on the
Opening of the Spring.
Especial to the Register

Greenville, S. c., Aug 13.--The
klondike fever has struck Green
vile. "A letter received IN Green
vile from w. T.. Lowry, of Daw-
son City, Alaska, has started the
ball. Lowry says:
lie IS no sort Of a man at all
who can't come here and in six
months dig $l5O,OOO out of the
earth"
He has 300 feet square staked
off, given him by the govern
ment. He started in with pick,
shovel and pan, the capacity of
the pan being four shovels of
earth. The first pan netted $50.
Digging deeper, he got 800 to
the pan, and increased it to 800.
He struck rock eight feet below
the surface and from one pan of
this got 81 200 worth of gold. He
got nuggets from the rock rang
ing from 81 to S75. He states that
IG0 square miles adjoin his tract
as rich in gold as his. He says
he has the refusal of $4,000 for
his claim.
He says it is useless to try to
get to the gold fields this fall {;
spring is the time to start. Sew
eral thousands are on their way
to the fields; the majority will
die before getting there. Three
thousand are at ST. Michmls, pre-
parlng TO make the trip over
land. They will have to travel
100 miles, walk all the way and
carry provisions. Provisions will
not last half the trip. They will
be caught half way in midwinter
and will freeze and starve to
death in the mountains.
The spring trip, he says, Is easy,
pleasant and enjoyable. One
thousand dollars will carry any
one to the fields at that time.
The country is peaceable; no
crime, no stealing, no murders.
He gives prices as follows: Hair
cut, 10 cents; shave. Is cents {;
drink of liquor, 80 cents; unskill-
ed labor, $l5 day. Provisions
scarce and at fabulous prices. All
payments made in gold dust.
Each man has his own scales.
An ounce Of gold is worth $l7.
The letter Of Mr.. Lowry is very
enticing, and on the strength of
1T party is organizing in Green
Vile TO make the trip, TO start
from this city the last of next
February.

NAVY VS.. SHORE.
Prospect of An Extremely Inter
estins 5O.ShOt Rifle Match.

A crack shot aboard one of the Unit
ed States war-ships in port has sent to
Sam Johnson a challenge for 50-shot
rifle match. The conditions will be
regulation pieces and Blunt's rules, 200
yards, off-hand, if the affair can be
arranged. Johnson, lately of the Bar
racks and Custom House, and now
with E. o. Hall & Son, and a sergeant
of Co. D, N. G. H., is well-known as an
expert at the butts. Johnson is willing,
and will have ample backing in town,
if there is to be any betting.
The last notable 50-round match at
the butts here was between Colonel
Fisher and Frank Hustace, Of the old
Rifle Association. The former won by
a rather close margin, with an average
of 46 for each score of 10 shots. john
son may safely be depended upon to
do As or better for each 10-shot round.
The match in prospect will attract no
end of interest, and all who use the
rifle will hope for the meeting between
representatives of the White Squad
ron and the First Regiment. The can
didate aboard the ship is reputed to be
rifleman with terrific habit of pill
ing up bulls-eyes at 200 yards.

BASE BALL NOTES.
What the Bennington and Kane.
hameha Teams Did.

What the Bennington and Kane.
hameha Teams Did.
The u. S. S. Bennington and Kane
hameha teams played 10-inning
game of baseball on the Makiki
grounds Saturday afternoon during the
progress of the bicycle races at Cyclic
mere Park. The result at the end of
the ninth inning was 20 on each side.
The navy boys made one run in the
10th. thereby winning the game. The
batting was very hard on both sides.
The game was played on the Maklkl
grounds with the understanding that
a return one be played on the Kane
hameha campus, this to give the stu
dents chance to see some of the fine
points. so that on Saturday next the
same two teams will cross bats out
where the brains of young Hawailans
are nodded.
At $3.50 D. m. today the Yorktown
and Bennington teams will cross bats
on the Makiki grounds. This is expect
ed to be a close game. No admission
fee and every one is cordially invited
nay, urged-to attend.
There is a bluejacket aboard the
Yorktown, whose name is CHEESE. He
played against the Regiment team
| when the u. S. S. Petrol was last here
He is a fine pitcher, and an attempt
may be made to keep him here.

Notes on Fast Wheelmen.

D. L. Conkling, the hustling man
ager of the fast. wheelmen who ar
rived here on the Moana, expects to
spend about a year here. He finds llv-
ing in the tropics a great charm. Mr.
Conkling does not intend to engage in
any business, but will go to Waikiki
for a rest, after very busy season.
Allen Jones will stay, if he can fine
employment, and since there is al.
ways something to do far young mai
who is as good at his trade as he is
there is little doubt that Honolulu will
have him in their midst.
D. Whitman has expressed his in
tention to remain, but George Shar
rick has not yet concluded what to do
''Trilby" Fowler says he would like t.
remain here for some time to learn

Ladies Shoot Well.

Who says the ladies are not in it

shooting at the Sharpshooters' range,
in Kakaako, since it was first an

to try their skill with firearms, have
made good scores, but the best work
was done yesterday afternoon, when
Miss Duncan took up her trusty rifle

Then she took a 3S.55-caliber Winches-

holds her rifle steadily, and when the
shot is fired, does not scream. but
calmly reloads and again prepares fol

The Election of President MaSsc

Havana, Nov. 23.-The news OF the ,Iec-
ton of the Cuban president has greatly
displeased Gen. Blanco, because Senior
Bartolome Masso, the new president. is
well-known in Cuba for his uncomp romis-
ing hostility TO Spain, and during the
two years he win be president there is
not the least hope that any arrangem ant
win be made between Cuban and Spanish
governments.
Even an attempt to treat with the mill

sidered useless, as Bartolome Masso WELLS

GOVERHMEN? TO MAKE A BID
At the Sale Of the Kansas Pacific
Railroad.
REORGANIZATION Committee of the
Union Pacific Will Not Oppose
Such Bid When Made.

New York, Nov. 23.-Interest was taken
today III a report from Washington to
tie effect that the Government intended
to bid for the Kansas Pacific Railroad.
and that representative of the Govern
ment would qualify for that purpose be-
fore deposlting with the court the neces-
sary amount of cash ($2oo 900, or cash
and bonds. 100000 OF each), five da VS.
before the sale.
The report could not be confirmed E.
Eliery Anderson, one of the Government
receivers OF the road, who was in conter-
ence with the Government yesterday at
Washington IN the subject. returned here
last night, but was detained at his h.me
today BY an attack of gout, and could
not be sem. The other receiver declined
to express an opinion or say anything
on the question.
In view 0t the possibility OF the Govern
ment bidding for the Kansas Pacific Rail
road that is, for part of it which Il
known as the governmental aided part Of
the road, which begins at Kansas City
and ENDS nowhere" as it has been said. or
at the 304th mile post, at place called
Boag, IL can be stated on trustworthy gu
rhority thatie the Government bids for that
road, which is to be sold in two divisions.
the Union Pacific reorganization commit
tee viii not bid against it.
The first mortgage claim is 81, ,303, ,OOo.
III addition to that there is the debt due
10 the Government, which is a second
mortgage, and which principal and net
interest together amounts to $12,9O1 ,32o.
TIE court has, however, made the upset
price which must be bid for the two
divisions Of the road 1894 miles, $500, 600.
If the road should be sold for that price,
the Government would lose SO, 500, geo.
Should the Government bay the road in
the Teorganized Union Pacific Railroad
Company would have To get another con
nection between Kansas City and Boag.
That, they say, they can easily build

road for.

BULLET PIERCED HIS LUNG
Young Fred Burleigh Is Found
Wounded by the Roadside.
Indications Point to Suicidal intent,
To Have Been Accidental

Fred Burlcigh, seventeen years old, lies
in an unconscious condition at Freed
mans Hospital with a bullet hole through
his lung. The wound was seIf-inflicted,
but whether done by accident or with
suicidal intent is not known, and only
the lad himself can tell. The boys father,
John Burleigh, is horticulturist and
lives at Mount Eber, Montgomery county,
Md. Mrs. Burleigh lives apart from her
husband, somewhere in Washington but
her exact address is not known, a the
lad was too weak TO state and lapsed
into Inconsistencies before the physi-
clans could gain that information from
him.
Fred was on his way to his fathers
farm when he shot himself. He carried
with him pistol, which was somewhat
rusty because il had not been used much
in some time. About o'clock yesterday
afternoon cOiored man living near Rock
Vile, discovered the boy on the road be-
tween Rockville and Gaithersburg, with
the bullet wound in his breast and he re-
volver by his side.
The indications pointed to his having
attempted suicide while he was making
his way along the railroad. He was taken
to Gaithersburg, to the office of Dr. Nc
Cormick, who temporarily dressed his
wounds, and sent the injured youth TO
Washington on the first incoming train.
A message had been sent in advance,
and an ambulance met the train at the
Baltimore and Ohio depot and conveyed
the boy to Freedmans Hospital When
first admitted Bgrleigh told Dr. WarfieId
and Dr. Williams, who attended him,
that he had carried the pistol in his
pocket and Lad taken it out to repair
it, as it would not work well. In doing
so, he said. he had inadvertently placed
the muzzIe against his breast, and while
he was thus. examining the weapon it
was accidentally fired.
There is much reas son to believe that the
boy attempted sHcfde, as the story Of the
alleged accident IS not a plausible one,
though no reason can be assigned for TIE
deed, unless it be, the supposed strained
relations between his father and mother
1t is not expected that the boy win re-
cover.
