well afford to emulate the example
set by the little town on the Clear
water.

Moberg Bros. made another hog
drive to Sites yesterday, taking
out four carloads this time. This
makes IS carloads the boys have
shipped out since January 10th,

certainly making money by raising
porkers. Hogs are now selling at

JESSUP SURPRISES
mining INVESTOR

Stuart Armour, the mining invest
ment man of San Francisco, has been
at the Lakehurst mine, White Plains,
for several weeks. Writing to the
Reno Journal from White Plains,
with regard to Jessup, he says:
Il was agreeably surprised to find
that the new camp, Jessup, discover
ed by Murray and Jessup of Reno,
three miles from our copper mine, is
going to prove a close rival to Raw
hide, The gold belt SO far proves
to be five miles long and over mile
wide, and is almost all high grade,
the values lying mostly in an iron
quartz porphyry. l was extremely
skeptical at first, for | thought too
much was claimed for the camp, but
| now see matters have been under
stated
Yesterday we received some as
says from San Francisco from a
claim owned by George B. Bird and
myself, called the Dog Star, on a
thirty-foot ledge, which averaged
over $55 in gold On a twelve-foot
ledge on the other side of the belt
mile away, on the White Cap, we
got an average of 500. It's this way
all over the camp, judging from the
paintings | have seen.
1T surely looks as though this
belt would surpass the famous Rand
in South Africa, with the advantage
with Jessup, as the rock is high
grade. This camp is only six OF
seven miles from the main line OF
the Southern Pacific and closer to
plenty of water

new STRIKE in
THE SHOSHONE

High grade ore was encountered
last night in the drift being run
from the 6OO-foot level at the Sho-
shone.
And what's more there is four feet
of it, all of which is being sacked.
The ledge was opened several days
ago, but up to the present time moth
ing sensational had been found.
The ore is white quartz and runs
into the thousands. 1t proves be-
yond question that the Shoshone ore
bodies get better with depth, and it
is putting it mildly to say the man
agement is elated over the find. The
shaft will be sunk an additional 100
feet at once.-Rhyolite Bulletin.

WOMAN'S CLAIM ON GLACIER.

Mrs. Mary E. Hart, formerly Of Los
Angeles, who has just returned to Seat
tie after visiting Alaska, has the distinc-
ton Of being the first person to stake
out mining claim on glacier while it
was still in action.
Sidney Noise, with the local architect
firm of Hunt N Gray, was on board the
Seattle. which has just returned from
n trip to the klondike, and he states
that for the first time in nine years pas
sengerS were able to make a landing at
Muir Glacier. near Skagway.
The glacier is considered far from
safe, but Mrs. Hart with natural love
of adventure, stepped triumphantly
ashore and was followed by others eager
for the experience of landing upon the
fUcbiddine ice field.
1t was found that the moraine, a de-
post freighted with precious ore, which
is always carried with the ice in this
section. had already become quite solid
and Mrs. Hart forthwith staked out a
claim.
Mrs. Hart has passed number of
years in Alaska and is couyersant with
the mining situation there having owned
and supcriutcuded the work in several
claims. In order TO gain experience she
ut one time worked with a pick in her
own miue.-Los Angeles Examiner.

MOUNTAIN SLIDING.
A Hawaiian Small Boy Simply "Drops
Down the Edge of the Scenery"

Water sports are by no means the
only vigorous athletics INDUCED in by
the boys of Hawaii. Mountain climbing
is a favorite pastime, for there are peaks
1000 feet high within easy walking dis
lance of any part of Honolulu, and on
the island of Hawaii there are two
mountains fully $4,000 feet in height.
Sometimes the Honolulu schools give
picnics on the mountain sides that the
pupils may gather landshells. 1t is on
these excursions in search of land-shells
that the Hawaiian schoolboys revel in
the once national sport-mountain slid
ing.
a very steep mountain side is selected.
where the grass is long and sloping
downward. Every one gathers his own
ii leaves-the ii leaf is something like
the banana leaf, but not nearly SO long.
With bunch of ii leaves in his hand,
the first boy steps to the edge of the
side, grasps the leaves by the stems in
both hands, places the leafy part under
him and sits down, gives himself a start
and drops down the edge of the scenery
like a flash. | was assured that it was
an easy matter to regulate the speed of
descent, by merely grasping the ii stems
firmly and lifting them upward, this
acting as a brake. | longed for the
thrill of dropping down over the edge of
mountain, and upon my brief sled of ii
leaves began the descent. | went like
the wind; it seemed as though my breath
would be taken away from me, or that |

dashed to pieces among the trees below.

the ii leaves with all my might and
came up with n jerk that paired every
bone in my body. There / sat. looking
downward almost perpendicularly, held
in position only by few ii leaves rest
ing on the smooth, slippery grass, but
the sliding grass is nearly foot long
and it is only after ii has been repeat
edy slidden over and beaten down that
it approaches perfection in the eyes of
the Hawaiian small boy, and sometimes
leads to accidents. when, for instance
the thin layer of ii leaves wears out be

parts the sled and sends the slider down

graceful manner. all arms and legs.
