ROSEBUD is PROVING UP.
Mines are Looking Better Than Ever
Before.

Mines are Looking Better Than Ever
Before.
There has never been time in the
short history of the Rosebud mining |
district when the prospects of the
camp were so bright as at present |
1t is true that the population of the
town is now less than it was during |
the spring and early summer-but
that is true of every other mining
camp in the state. The deserts OF
Nevada are not famous for their
pleasant climatic conditions, and dur
ing the summer months every person
who is able to do SO leaves the min
ing towns for their old homes or for
the alluring breezes of the seashore.
Many people who have left Rosebud
to spend their vacation will return
here as soon as cool weather sets in.
The Brown Palace has shipping
ore in two shafts and is sacking at
both places; the leasers on the White
Alps are sacking first class ore and
will ship as soon as they have car
load; the strike of rich ore made this
week in the Dreamland at a depth
of 100 feet is the most important
event in the history of the camp.
The Western Pacific railway is
making rapid progress toward Rose
bud and it will be but short time
until ore can be shipped over that
road with only seven or eight mile
haul.
There are probably three hundred
claims in the district upon which the
annual assessment work will be done
during the next three months. This
work will distribute a large sum OF
money among the miners and bust
ness men of the camp.
AS development progresses add
lions will be made to the forces o.
men now at work in the mines. Rose
bud will be great mining camp
one of the greatest in the state, bu
| it will not be made in day Thu
ore is here, but the mines will b.
found with depth-not on the sur
face.
Tuesday the Dreamland struck or,
in the 16-foot crosscut that has beef
run from the bottom of the 10000
shaft. This is the deepest workinj
in the district in which ore has bee
opened up. The ore is similar to tina
found on the surface and in the drift
run from the shaft at a depth Q
forty feet A sample of the expose
portion of the ledge gave assay re
turns of more than 100 ounces i
silver and about $4 in gold. Drift
were run diagonally from the shat
in two directions and the one run t
the south was the first to encounte
the ore. This shows considerabl
increase in the size of the shoot a
the one found at the 40-foot levt
was north of the shaft. This levt
was run a distance of ninety feet an
is in ore all the distance.
This strike proves conclusivel
that the greatest values and the lar:
est bodies of ore in this camp will
found with depth The developmeI
on the Dreamland, under the mai
agement of j. B. Harper, has bee
done in systematic and miner-lii
manner, and the discovery of rich o.
at depth of 100 feet means mut

the property, but also to the holde
of other claims.

find that there is a great differ
cnce in camels down here IN the So
nara. There are some which go as
e:.Sy az q gated Kentucky morse, ana
others which jar one more than "a
hand trOtter. The meharls, or fast
riding camels, can make twelve miles
an hour right along; they seem TO
be al legs and have the speed Of the
wind. They are well cared for and
are as beautiful as camels can be.
There are usually some Of these me-
hairs with the larger caravans. They
are ridden by soldiers or the chiefs
OF the tribes, armed with guns. Some
times Tuaregs, so mounted, are en-
plUyed as guards.
The freight camels on the other
hand are SCARED and diney. They al
way look sullen and Will bite at you
as they pass. They groan, Grumble
and even shed tears every morning
when the loads are put on, and they
seem angry from daylight to dark
1t takes two or three months for a

It Spread Destruction in
It's Ten Mile Path
NOBODY WAS KILLED


Mr.. y. A. smith. ~ex-member Of the
LEGISLATURE from Harnett, who was
in Raleigh yesterday, says n terri
bic cyclone that swept over a large
section Of Harnett county abou three
o'clock on the afternoon Of April 23rd,
was the most destructive in the ms
tory 10 the county, except the one
eighteen year, ago.
The cyclone entered the county al
&orthimgtOn'S Ferry, III he upper
edge al Harnett, came by stuart
mill, put the mill out OF business n
injured Mrs. Avent, VI" was III lhG
mill at the time. She was injured
ana couIdn't walk. Mr.. Smith did
not learn how serious were hef IN
iuries. From the Avent mill the cy-
clone tore off the top of Fred Arnold $
house; blew down the rouse or u
negro and blew AVA all ne had,
blew down the house on the old Sher-
if Brown place and blew the PARKS
in a dozen different directions. Whol-
~ destroying it; struck Frank Deans
house, and when he sought To faSten
the front door, hurled him clear
across the room and nearly against
the door in the rear of his house,
playfyk havoc WDtn ana
leaving dead chickens hanging on the
trees: turned the house of j. b.. Sen
ter partly around; at r.. Il. Johnsons
house, two and a half miles from
Kipling. played havoc with the tim
Der, tearing down at least a million
feet; the chimney OuthouseS OF
Mr.. Elyina Matthews, near C~halybeate
Springs, were torn down. These are
"a few of the results of the terrible
cyclone.
Mr.. smith says hat from the best
information he can gather the path of
the cyclone was ten miles long and
from 200 to 500 yards wide and did
thousands of dollars worth Of dam
age, in some instances leaving no
clothing, or cooking utensils. or
farming implements, or anything
else. Pieces of cook stoves and sew
ing machines were picked up many
yards from the house from which
they We're blown. The destruction of
timber was very great.
The remarkable thing was that no
life was lost and only me person was
injured. 1t CHANGED that at Mr..
Frank Deans, where the cyclone was
most furious, all his family had spent
the day away from home. He be
lieveS they would lave been killed if
they had been at home.
How long did the cyclone last? Mr..
Smith says he cannot tell, but from
all he can gather it was a furious
blast II was over in a minute. one
man told him that it blew his door
open and hurled him against Il back

out a panel of the door, and hat he
then fell flat on the floor hoping
thereby to escape uninjured, and that
within a minute it vas all over.
