Enthusiasm Moderated.

1t was not because there was any less
pride in these defenders of the nation 6
honor. but two months of close contact
and the almost daily sight Of the glisten-
ing ships swinging quietly at anchor had
filled the eye and somewhat dimmed en-
thusiasm.
Yet the picture Of these big fighting
craft was none the less inspiring today. as
they steamed in single column between
the rugged bluffs of the Golden Gate on
their world voyage. Not since they left
Hampton roads last December had the
fleet looked so trim and businesslike.

Crowds on High Hills.

There were many thousands OF San
Francisco's population gathered on the
high hills today to watch the fleets de-
parture, but there was no official recog-
milton of the event. A few bay craft
gave shrill blasts Of their whistles as a
parting salute. and the watching crowds
silently waved adieus. Beyond this there
was nothing to mark the sailing OF the
great sea force more than the arrival or
departure of other fleets of warships at
this port.
Two ships that made the voyage around
South America under Rear Admiral Rob
lev D. Evans we're missing from their old
positions today. These are the Alabama
and the Maine, now far on their way
across the Pacific homeward bound.
Their places had been taken. however,

PRIVILEGE AT
RAWHIDE BRINGS S45,000

The Grutt-Hassell Leasing company
has paid $4,000 for a two and a half
years lease on the Mascot claim at 20
per cent royalty. In point of price and
the significance to the camp this is I'M
q~uestionably the most important deal
in the history of Rawhide, and marks
a new record in the mount of money
paid just for a leasing privilege. The
lease dates from February I.
The deal was consummated only after
several conferences. knowing of the
tremendously rich ore that had been un-
covered Saturday, January IS, and also
the existence of equally as rich ore on
the north side Of the hill. Mr.. Grutt
made several trips to Yerington. but
was not successful in purchasing he
property outright. as E.. H. Whitacre.
his associate and owner. was not in the
least disposed to part with his holding.
After several unsuccessful attempts to
make some sort of a deal Mr.. Whitacre
was asked If he would lease the ground.
In reply he said III would either give or
take $50. 900 for a lease. representing
two-thirds of the entire ownership of
the claim. Without a moments hesita-
ton the offer was snapped up.
The work of opening the rich ore on
the south side of the hill on the Wild
West claim was begun Tuesday. Dur
ing the day $50 pounds were sacked that
will average. at the least estimate. be-
tween IS and $40 a pound. On Wednes-
day 700 pounds of the same kind of
rock were taken out and sacked. The
output of the two days will aggregate
close to &c. 900. and the ore shoot as ex-
posed has hardly been tempered with.
1t is well within the mes of conserv-
atism to say that there is ore to the
value of $4,000 in sight in the work
ings. with a depth of only four feet OBJ
tanned.
The same character of ore has been
uncovered ON the north side Of the hill.
Just as soon as preparations can be
made work will be begun on the north
slope and that section of the country
thoroughly explored. From every geo.
logical Indication and the showing thus
far made Grutt hill has every appear
ance of being one immense dyke of ore
that is laced with extraordinary rich
pay shoots. The rich showing on the
Wild West is but 40 feet from the

and opened on the latter. With rich ore

not to mention the many other showings
of the promontory. II looks al though
Grutt hill will undoubtedly prove the
most prolific producer of gold known to
mining. The Grutt brothers and Captain

GETTING READY TO 91n

The Blair lease on the Goldbanks Elk
tension is now in shipping ore and 1t Is
understood that in the very near future
shipping is to begin. Not only nave the
values of this lease increased with
depth, but the ledge also has wideued.
When the ledge was crosscut on this
property at a distance of so feet the
ledge was but three feet wide, while at
a depth of 100 feet the ledge is eight
feet in width.
Frank Bodine, who has some valuable
mining claims in the neighborhood Of
Mud Springs. is in town today and re-
ports the finding Of free gold on the
mining claim known as the Wa Dance.
this claim being the property Of Dwight
]. Hand1ey, the proprietor of the Fashion
saloon In W~innemucca. This claim lies
about two miles west of Mud Springs
and was located the early part of the
present month. In speaking of this
valuable ind. Mr.. Bodine stated that the
discovery was mad while the location
work was being lone and the ledge is
about eighteen inches wide.
Messrs. Boone and Hoffman, owners
of what is usually spoken of as the
DOOIC PlOROA hdNO ~ n
camp for the purpose of pushing devel-
opment work on their ground. Mr.. Hoff-
man stated that the work would be
pushed as rapidly as possible and that
two shifts would be put to work at once.
To bear out his statement he pointed
with pride to a wagon loaded with min
ing tools which is to be used in the
work. Mr.. Hoffman came direct from
Wonder and brought with i'm some of
his mining friends from the Wonder
district. In addition to the work being
lone on the property by Messrs. Boone
and Hoffman, a lease is being worked
by Farris and Platt.
Frank Bodine, one of the locators of
the Silver Tip mining calims, states that
they nave a shaft down a distance of
over forty feet and he and his two part
ners are very much encouraged over the
assays they are getting from time to
time from the property. Assays from IS
to SIS have been obtained. the values
being in gold and silver. the gold values
the values were increasing with depth
and that the ledge is about three feet
wide, but is becoming wider as the work
progresses. This claim was located dur
ing the rush in September by Frank Bo-
dine. p. Larson and Joseph Craig.
