ENTHUSE
OVER RAWHIDE
SAY OUTLOOK is BETTER THAN
ANY CAMP IN THE
STATE

n. j. Fitzsimmons. mining engi-
neer for the Mining and Engineer
ing Review of San Francisco. and A.
w. Moseley. a young mining engi-
neer of Los Angeles, arrived in Reno
last night from Rawhide, says the
Gazette, and are very enthusiastic
over that great gold camp, although
they are both very conservative men.
Engineer Fitzsimmons in speaking of
the camp, said:
81 have been visiting mining
camps and inspecting them for the
past twenty years and / can say tina,
/ believe Rawhide has better indica-
tons of becoming a great camp than
any mining camp l have visited in
several years. The mineral zone is
large and there is hardly place ia
the entire district where good pros
poets cannot be found. There has
been very little development work
done so far, but when the different
properties are thoroughly prospected
believe that the camp will have
many big producing mines. l have
invested in the camp and / would
not have done so had l believed the
camp lacked merit
A. w. Moseley. in an interview
sSid:
81 spent three weeks in the camI
and inspected nearly all the large
properties in the district. There are
wonderful mines on Hooligan, Grut
and Balloon hills, and nearly all tn;
properties are being worked. thini
Rawhide is today the most promisin.
camp in Nevada. and believe tina
when the mines have been thorough
ly developed and opened up Raw
hide will be large. and prosperou
mining town.
The reproducing area is abou
seven miles long by about two an
one-half miles wide and wherever
claim is being worked good pros
lpects can be secured. Most of tn
good properties are located in tn
neighborhood of Hooligan, Grutt an
Balloon hills, but over in the Roya
district there are also some fine PROF
critics. In this portion of the dis
| trict may be mentioned the Tigel
) Coachman, Royal. Wonder and nj
, merous other claims that are pre-
ducing shipping ore and considerabl
, high-grade. The Last Chance pro-
( erty is also a good one and all (
5 the leases are showing up well.
base my opinion on my inspection I
the district, and can safely say tn;
believe Rawhide is going to be
wonderful camp in the line of pr
duction"

GREAT ACTIVITY
in CLOVERDALE
MANY PROsPECTORs AND MIN
ERs IN DISTRICT WORKING
THEIR CLAIMS

7. r. Milss, veteran prospectorI
and miner, is in from the Cloverdals
district and reports great activity
among the various properties there.
Mr.. Miles and Judge j. P. O'Brien,
who own the Big Boston group Of
claims, have given Dond and lease
on their property to Messrs. Hay
wood, Moore and Price of Manhat-
tan. These gentlemen have been do
ing the development work in the
mine for the past forty days and have
attained depth of twenty-six feet
and have encountered four-foo:
ledge, which has values from 500 to
$4,000 in free gold.
In speaking of the district, Mr..
Miles said THE Robinson property,
the First Chance, is in fair way to
be sold and 1t is expected that the
papers will be signed in few days.
E. Hoffman, who has just returned
from Salt Lake, where he has been
financing his property, has machin-
cry on the way from Austin and on
its arrival work win be pushed rap
idly. The Closkey and Hurley prop
erty, which has been leased to E. T..
'Seyler of the Peavine ranch, has two
men at work. They have attained a
depth of thirty-seven feet and will
crosscut at the fifty-foot level.
Shortly before left visited
the Green and Wiley property. and
from the showings it looks as if il
would be one of the greatest produc.
ers in that district. The surface
showings alone go from SO to $2C
in free gold.
THE properties of AL Crawford
and partners, and James Meter ar
being rapidly developed. and bot
have good showings.''
Mr. Miles also said that there wer
over fifty men doing their own wor,
in the camp, and that during thi
coming spring he expected to see
big rush to the district.

ELY BY THE GOOD
REPORTS

Key Pittman of Tonopah, one OF
the most prominent attorneys and
mining men in the state, accompan-
led by his wife, arrived from Tonopah

Blaine mine, which was sampled by
nearly everyone. The samples taken
from the mine were PANIED on the
lground, and everyone of them showed
plenty of the yellow stuff, according
to the reports of the gentlemen who
tested the rock.

The Python.

Contrary to general belief. the py- thon or boa constructor rarely attacks people and Is looked upon very differ- ently by the people from the hama dryad and cobra. The python will take up his abode in neighborhood and will not disturb anything except the henrocsts. These he disturbs very much. as he has great fondness for chickens: also for a stray dog or small goat. know of one case, how ever. in floating house wEere a py- thon attacked woman and, contrary to the preconceived idea. did not crush her in his folds, but attempted to swallow her, commencing with one of her feet When she was rescued her foot and ankle were badly lacerated by the snakes teeth. The Chinese kill the python to make medicine from the liver. which has a high repute among them. They also use the dried skin for medicine Any Chinese drug shop in Siam will have number of python skins for sale.- Medical Journal.

An Angry Elephant.

A sentinel in the menagerie at Paris has had curious experience with one of the largest elephants. Tine sentinel was very conscientious and always re- quested the spectators not to give the animals anything to eat. which seemed to dlsplease the elephant in question to such an extent that he several times sprinkled the sentry's head with water from his trunk. One day a bystander offered this particular elephant a large cake. The sentinel interfered. as usual. and the elephant promptly dis charged in his face violent stream of water. \ general laugh ensued, but the sentineN, having calmly wiped his face, stood on one side and continued as watchful as before. Soon after ward he founi it necessary to repeat his admonitiol. but no sooner was this uttered than the elephant laid hold of his musket. twirled it round his trunk. trod it under his feet and did not re- store it until he had twisted 1t into nearly the form of corkscrew. Then he gave snort at the discomfited sentinel, as if to say, Now l hope you'll mind your own businessw

A Neiqhine Cock.

Camden says the Thames was once called the Cockney, and therefore a cockney means simply one who lives on the banks of the Thames. Wedg- wood says cockney, or cockerney. is one pampered by city indulgence, in contradistinction to rustics hardened by outdoor work. There Is. however, a legend, almost too good to be true namely. that Londoner who had never before slept out of sound of Bow Bells had occasion to go into the country and was detained all night. He was much disturbed by the lowing of the cattle. the grunting of the pigs and other sounds of country life, which he could not understand. and in par ticular he was frightened by the crow ing of the cock. In the morning, in response to tie farmers inquiries, he said the sound of the wild beasts had kept him awake. Just at that mo ment the cock crowed again, and the Londoner said: That's the one! He's been peighing like that for hoursw Since then Londoners have been called cockneighs or cockneys.

Weman the Touaher Sex.

Although men. as they run, are per haps muscularly stronger than women. their inability to withstand the ele- ments and their reliance upon clothes place them considerably below the so called weaker sex in the matter of un- clothed toughuess. Women wear clothes for ornament. Men use them as pro tective covering. A group of men ma rooned clotheless on an island in the temperate zone might be expected to die of fin month from drafts and colds and rheumatism. The health of women similarly placed would suffer little from the enforced exposure. The fact appears to be. therefore, that in everything but muscle-in vitality, rug gedness. character. disposition. brain power. etc.-woman is the tougher. not the weaker. sex.--Kansas City Journal

A VERY PRETTY LETTER.
The Story of Byron's Proposal to Miss
 MiIbanke.


 MiIbarke.
 Byron's proposal to his wife. Miss Milbanke, was made after sordid dis cussion and study and lacked all i'm pulse Lady Melbourne. who stood in his confidence, observing how cheerless and unsettled his mind and prospects were. strenuously advised him to mar ". She suggested certain lady, but Lord Byron fancied the idea of marry ing Miss Milbanke.
 No" said Lady Melbourne: Miss Milbanke will not suit you. In the first place. she has no fortune now, and you want money immediately. In the next place, you want person who will have great admiration for your genius: she has too great an admiration for herself"
 "Well," said Byron, "as you please ' And, sitting down. he wrote letter to the lady recommended by Lady Mel bourne. He received a refusal.
 "Now. you sec said he. Miss Mil banke is to be the person, after all. l will write to her"
 As soon as he had finished his friend. still rcmonstrating. read the note and observed:
 Well. really, this is very pretty letter. It is pity if should not go."
 'Then it shall go," exclaimed Byron. And. so saying. he sealed and sent the fiat of his unhappy fate.
