Items Of Interest From That
Collaborating District.

A special from the Hump to
the Tribune says that an extern
sion to the mineral belt, hereto
fore supposed to stop at the
Jumbo and Del Rio properties,
has been made, can no longer be
doubted. Parties of prospectors
have been following up the snow
as fast as it has melted and a
great many locations have been
made. Within the past 30 days
days much work has been done
in the way of discovery holes and
a number of assays show good
returns, ranging from $8.40 to
$19 in gold and sc to 112 ounces
in silver. The leads in most
cases are very strong and are sit
.uated on a high backbone, west
of Crooked creek. Among the
best so far comes the Royal Blue
group owned by Earnest Feltham.
Snowshoe Brown also has some
very fine rock. A tunnel has
been run on his property which
shows 80 feet of quartz with only
bne wall. The Hump Brewing
company have some very high
grade rock from their claims, as
has also McFadden, Lawless, and
Bob Mackey. The Moonbeam
and Blue Jay are in the immediate
vicinity of these strikes and q
great deal of development work
has been done on both thes prop
critics and good showing: made.

famous Drum Lummond, and il

To a representative of the MINING

"As rule | am averse to talk

When asked for an opinion as
to whether the ore bodies went

said: I'm view of the fact that
porphyry accompanies the ore
bodies / do not hesitate to say
that the ore bodies will "go
down." to make use of the COLO
quialism. / would not consider the
question worthy of serious atten-
ton but for the fact that igno-
rance, or malace, or both, have
caused the impression that ore

Savagely, our weapons taught them
We could fight and do much killing
And for bloody tas were willing
Yet the foes, though we did wonders,
Overwhelmed were we in numbers;
Cossacks scouts thus showing strongly
Ignorance, must count most wrongly.
Few and small; mere boyish battlers,"
Was the story of our tattlers
But we found them ten to one,
And the campaign just begun,
But why mind il? Ills no matter;
Surely, we shall make them scatter.
When the contest grew appalling,
Then our colonel, loudly calling,
Said my braves, come! Follow me!
And We'll make these heather feel"
Oh, the good man! Great disaster!
When he sank, we fell the faster,
Our few guns began retiring;
Realizing we must lose them,
All were spiked, lest Japs might use
them.
Poor and old-a cheating story
Now, at last, they shone with glory
Round these guns the contest waginE
Hand to hand the foe engaging;
Gunners, officers and drivers
Mingled crowd of bloody strivers
Not recounting all they dared,
Fought in vain not one was spared,
Skillful moving, nothing sighting,
Our opponents forced the fighting,
Gaining thus this fateful day;
Highest price We made them pay.
on the red field, wounded lying,
But without a thought of dying,
Brother soldiers gently raised me,
For my daring kindly praised me,
Gave me drink, that / might rally,
Bore me down a side-long valley,
Quickly to the Red Cross tent,
Where skilled surgeons DER me bent.
Tenderly the nurses aided
Till in sleep my visions faded,
Boundless gratitude I owe them.
When recovered ! shall show them
But my zeal to serve again
That their labors were not vain.
Nimble Japs for battle ready,
Lightly laden, cool and steady
How the land lies, well they know it;
All their movements plainly show it.
How the deuce the monkeys learned It
And to good account have turned it.
Puzzles me, and I respect them;
Unborn instincts must direct them;
Seward, landward, they befool US;
And we suffer while they school us.
Take this screed, my dearest mother:
Very soon expect another.
Hope stood by me, from the start.
Keeping me from loss of heart.
Give us time, we shall do better:
Then will come a joyful letter.
The poor fellow died before he coulC
write again at Hardin, and lies buried
there, in the military grave yard, will
