they blew in out of the snow from
Rawhide, from Round Mountain,
from Manhattan and from Silver
Bow.
There was no less parsonage than
a millionaire in that assemblage, for
there were gathered at the round
table in the cosy clubroom below
stairs, Zeb Kendall and Bert Giles
pie from Rawhide, Henry Bartlett
and Colonel Jimmy Travers from
Round Mountain, Jim Shelton of
Manhattan, and Postmaster Cook
from Silver Bow
And there were others.
Il want to tell you," said Mr.
Cook, fondly fondling his brew of
Grant Crumley's Old Grow, spring of
1899. you can talk as you like about
your new discoveries, but believe me,
Silver Bow has got the goods"
We'll, returned Bert Gillespie, OF
the Royal Tiger, there are goods
and there are goods; but | met a
gentleman from Rawhide tonight
who brought in the news that we
had nine feet of that high grade ore,
and you can have all the rest OF
the country. but that is good enough
for me-"
You can talk about your new
camps and your high assays" said
Jim Shelton; but Manhattan Con,
solidated has the goods going to the
mill, and the money coming from the
mint
That's going some put in Henry
Bartlett; "but how about Round
Mountain? We're washing out the
gold there, and when We get rea'
busy, we have it raining gold"

rarely says anything, and"

camps" interrupted Zeb Kendall
but Rawhide surely has the goods.

from the millionaires in a chorus.

Nevada Club stepped to the cente
