RELIEF SOCIETY AMAZED
It Is Believed That Senator's Letter O.
Rebuke Is Based on a
misunderstanding.

Consterna ton reigned IN the mohlhtE
meeting of the Southern Relle1 society
last night upon the reading OF iet'ei
from Senator Cockren OF MISSOURI III
which he denounced supposed methods
of the society in distributing It's tlckets'
The Senator. it seems, took umbrage
because two tickets were lett Tor MN
at his home with note soliciting ms
patronage. The letter which this occur
renee called forth. follows;
My dear Madame: Some time ago L
received in an envelope addressed 10
, me tickets to the charity ball, with
memorandum to send the money or re
turn the tickets. l do not approve OF
that method Of business, and according
to my custom. threw them into the hfe.
They were. beyond question: not osea
by anybody. / do not recall whether
there was one or two tickets, put II
there had been dozen they would have
been treated in the same way Yours
sincerely. F. NJ COCKRELL.
Cause of the Letter.
When this letter was presented to the
| society by Mrs. H. *. Barnard, to whom
| it was addressed, amazcment was pic

/ emit Mrs. Barnard who is one of the
most popular members of the society.

!! it Is said, called at the house on sever
/ al occasions for the purpose of solicit

| Not finding the Senator at home, how
ever, she took the liberty of leaving two
| tickets, believing, of course, that il the
Senator did not care 10 subscribe he
| would return the cards.
Method Not General.
It is believed that no antipathy to the
cause in which the bail was given in
duced Senator Cockreil to take the
course he did, as the Senator is a Con-
federate veteran himself, and as the at
| fair was given in aid of Confederate
/ survivors and their kin. and that the
sending of the letter is due to q mis-
understanding. 1t is thought that Sena-
tor Cockrell believed the method of sell
ing tickets which he condemned Pre-
vailed generally and he took the OPP
portunity 10 tell those in charge just
what he thought of it,
+; AS a matter of fact no other tickets

Barnard succeeded in finding the Sen,
ator at home.
Mrs. Rosalie II. Bocock. chairman Ct

night that the gross receipts for tht
bail were s., Isl, and that the ret receipt!
amounted to S1175. One-haIf of the lat

GOLDFIELD, New March 81
"Dick" Dillon, who discovered the fa-
-mous Little Chief" mine in Leadville,
which produced s5,O00,OOO. has just re-
turned from prospecting trip to Gold
Crater and the Bullfrog district. While
at Bullfrog he got a tip on the new
strike near Thorpe's mill and Joined
the stampede. reaching there in time
to make three promising locations. He
is enthusiastic over the new district
and says it discounts anything he has
ever seen for surface showing. Dick
is an old experienced prospector who
has both a nose and eye for mineral,
and his Judgment is entitled to much
credit. For several years he was one
of Colonel "Bill" Greene's right hand
men at Cananea, Mexico. After spend
ing the past four months in and about
Goldfeld he says it far surpasses any
thing he has ever seen for the amount
of work done. He has much more con-
fidence in the future of this camp than
he had in Cripple Creek, of which he
was one of the early pioneers.-Denver

million dollar mine-and not even for
sale at that fabulous figure-is what
Bullfrog has now. The property on
Montgomery hill and its enormous
wealth causes all mining men who
have examined and assayed 1t to,
figuratively speaking, gasp for breath.
Such surface showing has never
before been encountered in Nevada
and it is doubtful whether it's equal
has ever before been found. This is
not the opinion of one or two persons,
but of all who have seen it. The
ledge, likely more than 100 feet in width
and known to be more than 5000 feet
in length, seems to be all ore. On the
entire property there is not hole five
feet deep, save where assessment work
was done by experienced miners who
hunted out soft places, but it has been
prospected Unfortunately and the
lowest assay, and that on rock that was
supposed to be absolutely barren gave
returns of $12, while in most cases 1t
takes three and four figures to write
results.

CLOS Angeles Herald, March S1)
A two-million-dollar corporation
has just been formed by representa-
tive Los Angeles men, to be known as
the Bullfrog Compound Goldfeld
Mining company. This company has
secured sixty acres of the cream of
Bullfrog and are TO be congratulated
upon their foresight in getting into
this coming camp on the ground floor.
Another big thing in favor of the
Bullfrog Compound Goldfield COM
pany is the fact of their having two
full claims of twenty acres, each in
the Goldfield district.
1t is understood that the Southwes-
tern Securities company of Los An
geles is financing the deal. This con-
Germ has been very successful in its
Goldfield operations and has a large
and growing following.

Mr.. Denny says that he has been
