Office officials, to file their own claims
and attend to all the business them
selves rather than trust their interests
to agents. 1t is reported in Wash
ington, that agents are going about
making contracts with veterans to
represent them and file their claims,
and are charging a fee in advance and
second to be paid after filing the
claim; but an agent can serve only
one client properly, unless he calls
into service large force of assistants,
which they cannot afford. to do for
the small fees charged. 1t will be
seen, therefore; that it will be much
better for everybody to look out for
himself.

The secretary of war has called for
bids from private steamship COM
panies for furnishing transportation
for the government between New
York, Cuba and Porto Rico. The
idea is to see whether it is more eco
nomical to patronize them than to
continue the present transport service,
which is expensive. The dock charges
alone amount to 100000 year.
During the last three months 1,276
passengers and 5,726 tons of cargo
were carried by the transports, and
the .quartermaster's department knows
the exact cost, which has been very
large, a single voyage costing from
$12, 900 to SIS, 900. Bids are invited
for the next three months upon the
basis of the passengers and freight
carried during the last three months.

Buffalo Hump is All Right and It Cam
not be Kept Down.
County Commissioner Frank
Brown arrived out from the
Jumbo mine this morning with
five big gold bricks, aggregating
$4,000 worth of gold bullion, the
proceeds of 27-day run on Jum-
bo ore with his new mill. This is
the fourth shipment Mr.. Brown
has made OF Jumbo bullion since
the installation Of the two-stamp
mill. The proceeds of the last run
show that the ore still maintains
it's high average value. The force
now employed on the property are
showing up a greater property than
ever. Old Buffalo Hump has re-
ceived some pretty hard knocks
from professional Knockers, but
their efforts to kill the big camp
are unavailing, as the Jumbo and
other properties which are nearing
the productive stage will make
splendid stand-of to the efforts o
the interested parties who depre
ciate the value Of that minera
zone.
