The Humminq Bird.

a humming bird in vibrant flight
So strangely beauteous to the sight,
Poised DER the clustering flowers
Then swiftly went as 'twere some ray
Of sunlight gay that sped away
To hide from threatening showers.
A glimpse we caught and that was all
Ere our frail visitant so small
Saw fit to swiftly vanish
A hOney-bee without a sting,
A blossoming thing launched forth
on wing,
Our Sterner cares to Danish
1t offered up no song so clear,
Nor tOiled in dread of winter drear,
1t had no thought of giving.
But found, with neither strife nor paid
What man in vain has sought to
gain:
The simple joy of living.

NEWS FROM UNITED STATES OF
COLOMBIA ANXIOUSLY
AWAITED TODAY.
Been Sent in and Exact Status
Is Not Known.

WASHINGTON, July 20.-News from
Colombia is eagerly awaited in Wash
ington. as it is believed that the stu
alton will reach a climax today the
date set for the assembling of the con-
gress of the turbulent South American
republic. Many contradictory reports
as to the situation have been received
in Washington during the last few
weeks and the definite status Of the
political affairs of the country is un-
known. News from Bogota is received
here only in a garbled condition, as a
strict press censorship has been es-
tablished. Nearly all reports reach
ing here were sent by mail to Panama
and thence cabled here.
According to recent reports, it is
considered probable that the Colon
bian congress will not convene today
as was intended, since the leaders be-
lieve that the election of a new presi-
dent at this time would only serve to
further ferment the violent passions
Of the political partisans.
1t is now alleged that the revolu-
ton at Barranquilla on July 4 was
more successful than at first an
nounced, the revolutionists capturing
the forts, the Mabdalena river boats
and the custom houses. About so per
cent of the importations into Colom-
bia pass through Barranquilla, so that
the revolutionists will not lack for
funds.

The man at the gate has many
calls upon his supply of sympathy
and sometimes errs on the side of
kindness. He must use his discretion
always, so when two young women
with titan hair came up, and he
stopped one of them because she had
no ticket. and was told that the other
one was on her way to Panama, and
would be absent for years. and please
might she not go on the train with
her. he, with reluctance, granted her
request
The titan haired ones smiled upon
him charmingly, and started down the
stairs. when the demonstrating one
tripped and fell to the bottom, bruis
ing herself badly, scattering the con-
tents of her bag broadcast and break
ing her umbrella. She was taken up
stairs to the ladies' ROOM and it is
said she blamed the ticket examiner

time her friend had found it possible
to depart without her.
A young couple stood some dis
lance from the gate and gazed sadly
at the back end of the train on track

were numbed by the fast approaching
hour of parting. At the very last mo-
ment they came up to the gate, and
he presented her ticket, kissed her

then her face turned vivid scarlet.
''Oh, dear! Yes, have one, but it'll
have to go back to the waiting room.
Will / have time?" She is the picture
of distress, and is allowed to go
through. You see, the man at the gate
knows a thing or two. Her ticket was
in her stocking, beyond a shadow of a
doubt

STRIKE IT rich
At GOLD Circle
FAYANT, SCHLOSS AND LUDWICK
HAVE A VALUABLE
LEASE.

Ore that pans string of colors as
thick as lead pencil and as long as
ones finger has lately been encoun-
tered on the Fayant, Schloss and Lud-
wick lease on the Esmeralda property
at Gold Circle. The ore is fairly alive
with gold and seemingly there is
plenty of the rich stuff. Joe Fayant,
proprietor of the Banquet at Golcon-
da, and Joe Schloss, a San Fran
cisco travelling man, who are associ-
ated with E. A. Ludwick, were at
Gold Circle Sunday. inspecting their
holdings and reports the disclosures
of ore as very gratifying. Not only
are they taking out and sacking phe-
nomenal ore, but large vein of high
grade milling ore is being uncovered.
In conversation with Mr.. Schloss
here yesterday, he said: There is
enough ore in sight developed to war;
rant the erection of a mill and this
we are going to do right away Not
alone for the ores from our lease. but
we intend to erect a custom mill and
handle our share of the ores in the
camp"
Mr.. Schloss stated that another
rich strike had been made in the
camp on the Poorman claim. A ledge
of ore twenty-five inches wide will
run in the neighborhood of $1,000 to
the ton.
The Esmeralda, on which property
the Fayant, Schloss' and Ludwick
lease is situated, has recently beer
sold to H. H. Muggley of New York
but this will not affect the leasers
who have opened the ground. The
Boyle and Riley leases are also OF
this ground.

IMPORTANT DATA
ON FORMATION OF
SOUTHERN NEVADA

The recent gold excitement in
southern Nevada may not have re-
suited as favorably as some of those
who rushed to the region hoped it
would, but it again points to the fact
already we'll known to many, that the
arid parts of the west still conceal
great deposits of gold that may be
profitably worked Especially is this
believed to be true of the Nevada
California region, where the natural
conditions conspire to prevent as
careful prospecting as has been car
ried on in more favored localities.
For this region a description of
southern Nevada and eastern Cali
fornia, published some time ago by
the United States geological survey
as bulletin sos, will for years to
come be valuable to those who de-
sire to explore this region, for it may
save them from wasting time and
money in examining places where the
nature of the rocks shows decisively
to the trained geologist that no gold
can exist.
The region considered is typical
portion of the great basin. 1t is arid,
with a rainfall of less than twenty
inches a year. None of its streams
flow to the ocean, and in this it diff
fers from all other provinces of the
United States. The scenery, were it
not for the grotesque form and BIZ
zarre coloring of many of the noun
tains. and hills, would be depressing
| ly dreary. The mountain ranges for
the most part trend north and south
and are Enthusiastically rugged and
bare, although the crest of some OF
the higher ranges of timber are GOV.
cred by scant growth of timber
Associated with the ranges are art
| low hills and mesas, many of which
also have north-south eiongation
Between the mountains and hills are
broad, gently sloping, inclosed val
leys, the lowest portions of most o
which are occupied by lakes or b!

PROMINENT YOUNG
ATTORNEY DIES
Frank q. Drury Succumbs to
Severe Attack OF Nerv-
Gus Prostitution


The death Of Attorney Frank, G..
Drury at the Drury home in Oak street
near Fillmore yesterday morning came
as a shock to his numerous friends,
most of whom did not know he had
been Ill. He had been suffering for
some time from nervous prostration
and was forced to take to his bed about
10 days ago. He gradually. sank until
death ended his sufferings yesterday
morning. He will be buried Tuesday
morning from the Church of the Sacred
Heart, Fell and Fillmore streets.
Frank, as his friends called him. was
born in Smartsville, Yuba county, in
September, 1859. For several years he
was associated with General James F.
Smith and Judge +. J. Murasky in the
law business, and about II years ago
ne and G. w. Lynch entered into
partnership under the firm name of
Lynch d Drury. He held one political
appointment as assistant prosecuting
court when Judge Graham was prose-
cutting attorney.
His genial disposition and kindly ma
ture made him hosts of friends in the
legal profession and among the Native
Sons OF knights of Columbus with both
of which organizations he was promf-
nently identified He was a devoted
son, and the recent death of his mother
and father affected him deeply. He left
wife and child, four brothers, a sis
ter and niece.
