MORE MASONIC NEWS.
Returning Parties Confirm the Strike
In the New Gold DiesInas.

Returning Parties Confirm the Strike
In the New Gold Dissinss.
Yesterday Jim Reid of this city, who
has been in the Masonic Mountain |
district came in. He brought in a mum
Der Of fine specimens and a number OF
samples from ground that he is inter-
ested in. The picked samples are ex. !
ceedingly rich and Jim and his asso-
ciates are waiting for the returns on
the other grade of ore. Mr.. Reid, like
the others, are surprised at some OF the
ground and it looks like a real strike
to the south of this city.
Another man who has been on the
ground is Mr. A. S. Dinghy, a deputy
u. s. Marshall of California. He came
in last evening from the diggings
and brings in a graphic story of the
section and the discoveries. He OPEN
ly states that If the lodges 60 down
that there is another Bodie in sight
and no telling where the story will
end.
He was on the most important strike
of the section Several fine lodges are
being developed. On in particular
shows free gold in every shovel full.
One side of the ledge the groupings
are moss covered, and on scraping off
the moss the gold is seen to glisten.
There is no deep work up to the pres.
ent and it will take several weeks
to show up the true nature of the
ground.
Another feature is the gathering up
OF the boulders. Many tons OF the
ledge matter has slipped down the hill
away from the original location and
prospectors are gathering them up and
shipping. The boulders go from one
hundred to many thousands and some
very fine specimens are found a con
siderable distance from the main strike
Many prospectors are rushing in and
the ground is located in every direc
ton. Cabins and tents are being rush
ed in as the weather is cold. GoOi
roads have been completed to the cam!
Water and wood is plentiful and n
one need want for the necessities.
The history of the strike is interest
ing. The first find was made by ;
boy named Green. He sold his lo
cation for one dollar, another part,
then went to the father of the boy ant
gave him a thousand dollars for tn
property. In the meantime the frs
purchaser relocated the ground as
realized that a minor could not hol
the ground. There is now law sui
in regard to the real party who own
the claim. The youth in his excite
ment located the claim across tn
ledge, which only gives him six hur
dred feet, and the Bodie people hav
attached their notices on either en-
of the claim, giving them the lilo
share of the ground.
Later other parties came in an

out where they were at, have foun

A FLY IN THE OINTMENT
Prince uktomsky Visits Their Settle
ment, Warns Canadian People.

WINNIPEG, Man, June Sit was
a grave mistake to bring the Dukho
bors to Canada" declared Prince
Uktomsky of st. Petersburg on his re-
turn last night from his visit to the
settlement at Yorkton.
They are not contented and never
will be in this country. l find them
more dissatisfied than they were in
their home in southern Russia. In
evidence of their discomfort is their
religious restlessness. Such pilgrim
ages as they have attempted here
were never heard of in Russia.
Your climate is hard on the Duk-
hobors. They are Vegetarians and
disdain to be called a cattle-breeding
people Their vegetables have not
been growing we'll this year and they
are discouraged. There can be no
doubt that they were in better cOndi
tons and a better climate in south
ern Russia They were accustomed to
Il long hot summer and will never get
used to your short summer and very
cold winter.
The DukhObOrs are as Industrious
here as they We're in their old homes.
Some are already rich, but any
amount Of riches Will never overcome
their restIessness. This has been
proven in the past and Will prove so
again. They are not desirable set
tiers for any new country. The ten
dency to hold themselves aloOf from
other settlers is very marked, the laws
of common property in their COM
munity at Yorkton are much stricter
than they ever were in Russia.
"Oh, you Canadians will have your
troubles with the Dukhobors yet"
said the prince in conclusion.
The distinguished Russian leaves
| this afternoon for Montreal, where
he will visit Nicholas Strive. the
| Russian consul there, who is his friend
of thirty years standing.
