FLEET EYER
ASSEMBLED
A FINE SPECTACLE
SAN FRANCISCO PREPARING FOR
GREAT EVENT AND WANTS

MACHINES IN THE WORLD.

San Francisco, Feb. 2O.-The
great fleet of battleships, cruisers
and torpedo boats coming from the
Atlantic is on the long leg of It's
journey, having rounded the horn
on its way up the Pacific coast, with
San Francisco as its objective point.
While leisurely proceeding along its
way, stopping to accept the hospi-
tally of South American nations,
the feet Is giving time to the people
of San Francisco for the prepara-
tions for one of the greatest celebra-
tions ever seen in this country.
To those unaccustomed to the
presence of large feet of war yes
sells the full significance of the spec
tacle that will be presented in San
Franclsco's harbor during the visit
OF this feet Is not understood. There
has never before been anything just
like this spectacle will be. There
have been many assem5lages OF war
ships at various times of the worlds
history, but II may be said OF the
coming gathering in San Francisco
bay that never has there been ono
that will carry so much of the spec
taculer as this.

appear small. Even at that time

Buckskin, New, March 29.-(Special
to the Reno JournaD.-Buckskin has
taken on a new lease of life. More in
terest is shown now in this section than
there has been since the panic.
All mining engineers and mining men
that have visited Buckskin in the past
year nave reported favorably on this
camp and are awaiting with interest the
outcome. All expect great things or
this place and are waiting for the word
to return. This place affords better OPP
portunities for Investment than any
camp in the state. The surface SHOW
ings cannot be equaled in the state OF
Nevada or any other state.
The formation is truly eruptive and
has a secondary enrichment and replace
ment which made Goldfeld and which
is characteristic of all the good camps
of this state. This enrichment is more
definitely defined than any place in Ne
yada. All Buckskin needs is a little
work and she will be one of the largest
producers in the state, If not the largest.
TIL reported strike on the Eunice
group, as published a few days ago, was
on the Wasp group, owned by Charles
Montague and Herman Ballerstine. and

reported. They have their
vein at several points and the ore is
exceptionally rich. The vein is from 80
to 40 feet in width and at every point
where opened the ore pans freely In
most of the ore gold can be seen In
large specks with the naked eye. AS

says taken have run over $4,000. The
quartz which will pan nothing, assays
$22. The owners of the property have
been constantly opening the vein since
the first strike was made and in every
hole opened so far the same ore shows.
This is undoubtedly one of the biggest
gold strikes made in the state and has
created great excitement in this vicinity.
Emery Gates. of the Gold Nugget, has
secured a 5-day option. The terms are
$25, 900 and 100000 shares of stock,
Montague and Ballerstine reserving a
block of the ground on which the strike
was made for a three years lease. Mr..
Gates is now in San Francisco securing
machinery for starting work on this
property in a large way. He expects to
sible moment.
The ore lies in a red oxidized ande
site. between the ~porphyry and diorite.
The vein is traceable for several hun
bred feet on the surface.
This vein passes through the Mother
Lode claim, owned by the Home Mining
controlled by Delaney q Det-
wiler of Oakland, on which the same
ore has been found. and continues
through the Jack Bell ground and the
Sally Sprague claim of the Frontier Ex-
ploration company.
Prospectors are covering the hills OF
Buckskin and properties are in big de-
mand and those who pinned their faith
to the camp at the beginning Will reap
large reward.
