On one occasion a great public
dinner was given to Isaac Hull by
the town of Boston and he was ask
ed to sit for his picture to Gilbert
Stuart, the celebrated artist, who
was a great braggart. When Hull
visited his studio Stuart took great
delight in entertaining him with an
ecdotes of his English success,
stories of the marquis Of this and the
baroness of that, which showed how
elegant was the society to which he
had been accustomed. Unfortun-
ately, in the midst of this grandeur,
Mrs. Stuart, who did not know
there was a sitter, came in with
apron on and her head tied up with
some hapderchiefs, from the kitchen
and cried out: "Do you mean to
have that leg of mutton boiled or
roasted2" to which Stuart replied,
with great presence of mind, "Ask
your mistress"

GOLDFIELD NEWS.

Taken from the Goldfeld Review
of Dec. 22nd.
A heavy shot put in the drift Of
the Lookout mine at Fish Lake one
day last week opened up what pro-
misses to be one of the biggest pay
shoots ever discovered in We9iern
Nevada.
The Lookout is one of five claims
which comprise the Lookout group,
owned by Messrs Effinger, Nc
Cauley Il McClelland. Recently the
gentlemen bonded the property to
Howe & Otis of Denver, for $50, 900,
but on the 11th instant the bond ex-
pired by limitation. The following
day the force employed by the
owners was at work in drift run
ming from the shaft at depth of 70
feet. An extra heavy shot was put
in one of the holes and the follow
ing morning when the "muckers"
went in to clean up it was discover
ed that quite cave-in had occurred.
An investigation of this showed that
the ore for distance of 40 fl above
and for considerable distance along
the drift had fallen in, and to a
depth of so feet below an immense
cave had been opened up. Careful
measurements of the ore exposed
were made and it was determined
that the lucky shot had opened up
not less than 0,000 tons of ore, and
the lowest average sample of it gave
returns of $40 per ton, putting a
valuation of 5000 600 on the whole
mass. 1t is hardly necessary to
state that $50, 900 would not buy the
property now,
During the past month the LOOK
out has shipped two carloads of ore,
and while the returns have not yet
been received it is estimated that it
will run in the neighborhood of 1920
per ton. The ore is free milling,
heavily oxidized and carries a large
percentage of iron, which makes it
a very desirable-commodity for the
smelter people who allow $40 re
bate on it. The ledge from which
the ore comes is from 10 to II feet
wide and lies between lime and por-
phyry walls. A force OF ten men is
employed at the property, but this
will be soon augmented, and later
on the owners contemplate putting
in a MILL

The story of the alleged discovery
of the famous Breyfogle mine, Harris
says, has been dynamited to smither-
een by the Bull Froggers, who had
a greet mind to lynch the man who
retailed it about. The tale stampeded
the whole BufI Trog camp and men
rushed off by day and night to a
point seventeen miles iouth, where
the strike was said to be. Many
did not equip themselves properly
and some were in imminent danger
of dying from exposure. When they
returned they we're 50 wrathy that
they talked of lynching, but the
man who talk the story explained
satisfactorily and so sill lives.

GOOD STORIES CT
WELL KNOWN MEN.

The late William M. Evarts used
to tell good storey about himself.
While he was in the United States
senate his wife and children were in
their mountain home in Vermont.
One of the latter was looking out of
the window thinking of her father
and wishing that she could see him,
when donkey in contiguous pas
ture came to the fence, poked his
head over the top rail and brayed
most dolefully. The child wiped a
few lonesome tears from her eyes
and then called to the donkey:
"Never mind Don't be lonesome,
for papa will be home Saturday
evening"

no comment, and the student soon
realized that he had made mistake.

Word that the ledge on the Hub
claim had been cut with the crosscut
tunnel was brought in from Gold
Crater on Tuesday. While the news
regarding it is meager it was never
theless quite satisfying to Messrs
Inman and Saunders. the owners of
the claim. The tunnel cut the
ledge IS feet in at a point 80 feet
below the surface. Along with this
news came also the information that
the ore panned we'll, indicating that
it carries as good values as were
found on the snrface, which ran all
the way frem So to $50, SO that there
is promise of rich body of ore
from the start.
