HIS CLAIMS,
W. W. Woodruff Is Disc1os.
ing Flattering Prospects in
Olinghousc Property

w. w Woodruff, merchant and
mine owner, is preparing to do vast
amount Of development work on the
Polar Star and Gold Treasury group
Mr.. Woodruff has, in running a crsss-
cut over 200 feet, cut eight veins all
showing values from $3.50 to So
4z3.ol per ton in gold and silver. The
veins vary in width from eight inches
to six feet. Mr.. Woodruff is of the
op'nion-and, by the way, It is we'll
known that he is an experienced miner
and prospeclor-that he has the ex
tension of the Butte and Gold Center
lode. which traverses the Williams
property recently acquired by the SIN.
Mining Co., from which over quar-
ter OF million dollars in gold has been
extracted since the discovery Of camp.
When the ore shoots have been fully
disclosed in the veins now cut we NAV
look for an elaborate scheme to be
carried out in the development Of
green hill properties by an adit being
run from Tiger canyon on the vein
something over $500 feet south into
the green hill. Such tunnel would
give about l4o0 feet Of depth and en-
able Mr. Woodruff to ascertain the true
value OF his property at little or no cost
to himself, there being no doubt Of the
willingness Of other green hill property
owners defrsy.ng the expense Of the
project. Mr.. Woodruff is entitled 10
all the coed fortune awaiting him as
he has demonstrated in more ways
than one his deep and heartfelt inter
est in the future of the camp and its
people.

TRIBUTE FROM CLEVELAND.
Ex-President Deeply Moved by Death
 of His Friend.


 Princeton. N. J., Feb. 2.-Mr. Cleveland was deeply moved when he heard of Mir. Whitneys death. To an Associated Press representative he said
 ."The news of MT. Whitney's death has greatly shocked me. As I think of him. my mind passing the recent years dwells upon the days of my association with him in high official duty and recalls the time when I had the opportunity to enjoy his unreserved intimacy and friendly com panionship. Our relations have never changed. but the exigencies of life have forbidden recent close intercourse.
 MT. Whitney had more calm, forceful efficiency than any man I ever knew. In work that interested him he actually seemed to court difficulties and to find pleasure and exhiliration in overcoming them. His conquest over the obstacles he encountered in undertaking to build up our navy, afforded him greater delight than the contemplation of the great re- suits he achieved in his department of the government.
 Mental Poise Complete.
 His judgment was quick, clear and astonishingly accurate; and when it was called into action his mental poIse was so complete that neither passion nor irri- tation could lead 1t astray.
 While I remember all this with admi- ration and affection, l recall with more tender sentiment Mir. Whitney's devotion to his friends, his extreme consideration for all with whom he came in contact. his thoughtfulness for the ease and com fort of others and his ready impulse to help those who needed help. I mourn tba death of a friend of whom it can hc truthfully said that in his character were combined mental traits of a high order and loving qualities of heart that grappled him to his friends with hooks of steel :,
