HYLAND AND NEIL AGREE
UPON TERMS OF BATTLE
Both Men Deposit Forfeits and Select
Alex Greggains to Referee
the ROIlt.

frankie Neil and Dick Hyland
agreed upon terms yesterday after
noon for a twenty-round fight. After
a lengthy argument McClintic, Hy-
lands manager, finally gave in and
agreed to pit his boy against the for
mer bantam champion at 122 pounds
ringside. Both men seemed willing to
battle for go per cent of the gross re-
ceipts and to divide the profits 65 and
35 per cent.
The date of the match has been
shifted from the 9th inst. to the 31st
in order to give the boys chance to
train a few days longer. Both seem
satisfied with Alex Greggains as ref
cree and he has consented to Judge
the bout. Each man deposited $1,000
with Bob Smith as guarantee for
weight and appearance.
Alex Greggains will probably sign
up Bobby Johnson and Billy Snail
ham for the main preliminary. He
is also trying to match Frank Rafael
and George Herbert for ten-round
bout as q curtain raiser. There seems
little chance of bringing Berger and
Casey together, as the former insists
he is still an amateur"

And, like the Arab, they fold their
tents in the night
And silently steal away;
And on the site of their former habita-
tions
Arise wonderful creations in wood.
1t is not absolutely requisite for the
Goldfeld resident to be a jack at all
trades that he may run the gamut of
the many and diversified sensations
which the camp affords, but if he pos
sess a smattering of the carpenter s
lore ne is e%minently qualified to con-
struct a domicile quite as wonderful
as the "house that Jack built Meth
er is it necessary in order to maintain
his physical strength that he have re-
course to the swinging of clubs or the
lifting of %50-pound weights, for he can
~unjoint his vertebrate quite as success
fully by the manipulation of hammer
and saw. AS a developer of an appe-
tite and the necessity for large and fire.
quent applications of afniea the latter
amusement is u~nequaled, and might
justly be looked upon as a luxury when
the prevailing prices of drugs and grub
are considered. AS a Sunday diversion
building a house holds the attention
with the intentness of a baseball game
and the hours fleet away unnoticed the
while the builder marvels at the results
OF his handicraft. Like man, some of
these structures are "fearfully and
wonderfully made" yet to the eye of
the novice in the art architectural they
present many features of a palace; a
ro1oaa ~ xvhtoh Tho oAp,forto ~ o1aan-
ing apartment and parlor, and the Sc
ductive incense of kitchen are garnered
together in one room. That they are
bizarre and picturesque is apparent,
and hat they are roomy, despite their
circumscribed limits, is evidenced by
the number of elders and children that
are frequently domiciled therein.
The building of these one and two
room ediices appears to be the regular
first day of the week occupation of the
resident who is ambitious to cover his
head with his own roof tree, and the
cool of morning and evening of late
have acted as a gentle spur to his de-
sire to house himself in something more
opaque than canvas walls ere the ar
rival of winters chill. In all sections of
the camp the rasp Of saw rivals the SER
rated note of the somnolent burro, and
hammer ~resounding on board makes the
dissonance of the recent ladies nail
driving contest pale into insignificance
by comparison. Occasionally the voice
of some ardent tool wielder is raised in
panied surprise and ~lamentation at con-
tact of hammer with thumb nail in
stead of ten-penny, and for some min
utes thereafter the ambient air is
shocked by the scope of his explosives.
To be about at such time tends to add
largely to ones education in the art
profane, but is accompanied with an
element of danger, for the slightest
scintina of a smile on the face of the

IN H MAKING.

Results are not always objective, =
says the Mining Record. Something
has been accomplished that does not
look big and important, but which
really be both. If a man were
to pick up a dynamite bomb before it
exploded and throw it into a vacant
field, his deed might ave life and
property. But because the people and
the buildings looked the same as they
did before being saved, they may not
impress the world with the Importance
of the mans act.
A cake of ice, placed in a pan over
a fire, may require considerable heat
and time in melting. But the water is
still cola and it is difficult to believe
that the process Of melting signifies
the expenditure of any heat.
Thus man learns to judge things by
objective symptoms, whereas a deeper
insight may be required.
The stakeholder never thinks of
what has been required In getting a
mine ready to produce. He wants to
know "where all that gold is they
have beef talking about He cramps
his wind to a point where reason is no
longer the power behind the throne.
And the result is that he begins to
anne the company where no blame
may be due.
Driving tunnels and drifts, sinking
shafts, doing timbering, building shaft
houses, installing air and hosting
plants, and doing the many other
things required in getting a mine
ready, combine in consuming several
Thousand dollars. AS a result, the
property is given real value. Can
there be better proof of latent energy
or dormant worth, if the mine
proves a good producer?
Let us be ready to look for the sub
~iective qualities. In the finished
scholar. we see none of the headaches
or ~sleepless nights of study. In the
successful athlete, we see none or the
tedious, continuous training. And so
il chances that in the producing mine
we find none of the long, hard pull up
to production. We look at the Camp
Bird. or the Homestake, or the Port
land, and we ask why our mine can
not be in that class. We cannot see
the long period of development those
mines had to endure.
What all stockholders could get
along with, and what many soreiy
need, is patience.
