A feature of the work being carried ON

took pains to point out, is the fact that
no stopping is being done on the prop.

FIRST ACCIDENT
At RAWHIDE

The first accident to happen in the
camp occurred Christmas eve, when Tom
Shannon was blown up by prema-
ture explosion on Hooligan hill. One
leg was broken i'll two places, and he
was otherwise badly shaken up. He
probably would have been killed had his
partners, who were working with him,
not faced the shots and ran back i'll the
tunnel and carried him out.
A strike of importance has been made
OH the Royal ground, the. rock running
into four figures. The Tiger claim, adj
Joining it, has uncovered an ore body
that assays $1,000 in silver to the ton.
The ground in this vicinity is mostly i'll
the hands of Yerington people, who
have leases on it.

! D. 0. K. K. ARRIVE
::::====AN -
| ARE IN POSSESSION OF TOWN /;

The d. o. K. ks have come, have
seen and have conquered.
Yesterday afternoon Royal vizer F.
p Damn and his herd swooped down
mon the city and carried everything be-
fore them. The keys of Yerington are
now in possession of the army of the
Truckee.
Having heard of the coming of the
neyer-defeated forces, Deputy Lawson
and his valiant knights men the invad-
! .rrs on the outskirts of. the city under a
fag of truce, and escorted them to the
various temples of rest, where quarters
were assigned them.
A consultation between the high mo-
Vuis lasting for considerable length of
time concerning the Yerington forces
and their valor followed. The Grand
Chancellor of the Reno forces said he
was from Missouri. Therefore, three
recruits of different sizes, ages and tenn
peraments were picked from the local
garrison as representing the valor of the
Yerington body as whole.
In the evening a convention of the
Knights was held in Owl hall. The
three recruits were put through the tests
Of the various ranks and were not found
wanting. They were enrolled under the,
banner of Pythianism amid scenes both
striking and impressive.
But tonight is the night of all nights.
A good and true band of tyros will be
driven across the hot sands. To
reach tine oasis in the desert
we are told one must be built of
"sterner stuff" But once reaching
there, it is said, the hardships are
drowned in the zem zem spring, which
flows in never-ceasing quantity. Zem
zem is the drink of the gods that manu-
faCture the thunder and the lightning,
so il is said.
Owing to ain unavoidable accident oc-
curing to the humps in the backs of
several camels the parade will not take
place until 7:30 O'Clock this evening. 1t
appears that the faithful beasts were too
heavily loaded and the eruptions, on the
bucks, caused by interior disturbances,
as the miner might express it, were
Gattened out. To meet just such emer-
gencies a pressing machine is always
carried along with the herd. The oper-
ati ms are now being performed and be-
fore night the camels will be ready to
proceed.
A banquet will be arranged for, which
will follow the initiatory services. To-
right it will be a case of eat, drink =
whether you want to or not t and be
merry.

GOOD STRIKE IS MADE
ON KNOB HILL
ESTATE

About year ago the Yerington Knob
Hill syndicate, composed of twer y we'll
known operators of this city, was formed
for the purpose of buying for cash a
group of FIVE claims adjoining the Yer
ington Ironsides company's property,
which is located in the north end of the
Mason valley district. 1t cost the crowd
$4,000, or $500 each, to acquire the
ground, and after the purchase was made
nothing more was done with the propo-
sition until recently. Then the little
syndicate assessed its members SIS each
TO do the assessment work on the FIVE
claims.
That has just been finished and work
has ceased again for the present, but
that is not all. Yesterday morning the
men who have been doing the assess
ment work appeared in town with sam
pies of fine copper ore that was struck
in doing the work. There are three or
four fissures, according to report, and in
one of these there is between three and
four feet of high grade copper ore that
will pay to ship anywhere. This has
stirred the bunch up little, and The
probabilities now are that early in the
coming year an energetic campaign 'ol
real development will be .nausnrated
The men composing the syndicate are al
well to do and there is little probabiiit,
that any outsiders will be allowed te
break into the game. 1t will be another
Nevada Hills sort of proposition. Sal

given by tite pupils of the Plnmmer
school on Saturday evening was well at

in the school and the eldest is only
eleven years of age, but every number
on the program was well rendered and
great credit is due their teacher for the

had the gifts upon the well-laden tree
