The Country Cousin.

Glenn H. Curtiss, discussing avia.
ton with a New York reporter, said.
with smiling Impotence:
Really, though, your questions show
remarkable ignorance of the prin.
ciples of flight. If you are going to
report aeronautical things, why don't
you read up aeronautics? Your ques.
tons, as it Is, denote an ignorance
equal to the westerner's.
This westerner, on a visit to his
rich Pittsburg cousin, came down to
breakfast every morning with the
same genial question:
How is things?'
Zone morning the rich cousin, his
nerves being a little on edge, scowled
a black scowl at this question, and
said:
"'Why the dickens do you always
say, How is things?" Jethro!'
"Jethro looked surprised and hurt.
Because he answered, I want to
know how things is, that's why!'"

was walking along Broadway the
other day when l thought recognized
familiar face, though 1t seemed,
somehow, out Of place in that crowded
thoroughfare. However, the face and
It's owner stopped and shook hands
with me, calling me by name, and re-
calling the fact that the last time we
had met was in a little town In Hon
duras, Central America.
Then a past episode flashed ITSELF
back to mellow this man, a reckless,
MISUNDERSTANDING fellow, had
helped me out of brawl that had
been forced upon me by an intox1-
Gated fellow-American. Not that |
had quarreled with my compariot, for
l had to defend him. He had brought
the brawl about by gratuitously In
sulting several natives, who displayed
resentment and machetes.
Robert the Devil was the peculiar
sobriquet by which the rather satur-
nine-looking gentleman had just met
was known in Honduras. He belonged
evidently to that patriot band who
leave their country for their country's
good. He had emigrated to Honduras
from the United States, and bore
about with him In the land of his
adoption the mysterious atmosphere
of a man with pasta past that he
appeared to wish to escape from and
conceal ...s.se
However, Robert had served me q
good turn, for he acted as peace
maker upon the occasion have re.

waters OF the Columbia river a short
time ago.
This old tree, which stood on the
bank Of the river at the foot of Main
street, was the starting point for all
early surveys in Clark county and the
western portion Of Washington state.

LEHIGH-ANTELOPE LEASE
HAS A FINE BODY OF ORE

The Lehigh-Antelope lease on the
acreage of the Round Mountain An
telope Mining company resumed work
en- the first of the month, says the Mug
get. Nels Paulsen, who is in charge
of the operations, and who is also in
terested in the lease, has just secured
a year s extension of time in which to
work the block and under these condi-
tions extensive work is being planned
for the coming year.
No acreage in the camp has shown
more free gold at or neal the surface
than the Antelope, which leads to the
belief that when depth is attained the
source of all this treasure will be en-
countered. 1t was from the Antelope
that the first shipment of ore was ever
made from the district-a few tons
which Melted in the neighborhood of
$4,000. The many strikes of almost
pure gold pockets and seams which
have been made since are a matter of
record.

some larger operations would be made
known and definitely decided on.
These larger matters have reference to
a railroad, II miles long, to connect
the Nevada Victor property with the
Salt Lake road at a point near Nipton.
Also as to the building of a smelling

week on company business, being their
first leave of absence for three months,

Mr.. Dunbar stated that the proper
tics of this company are looking better
thar at any time in their past history.
In the Rand shaft, after Is more fest
of sinking, a station will be cut and
the ore body thoroughly exploited At
this level. Values in this shaft are
very uniform, ranging around $14 to
the ton in gold and silver. The ore
body has averaged between five and
eight feet in width in the lower work
iags, with excellent high grade ore oc-
curing next to the hanging wall.
Work in the Honest Miner tunnel
continues to show the same kind of
ore with occasional streaks of picture
specimens-the latter fairly plastered
with the free.

from the scene of a supposed strike al
the base of Grant mountain about 81
miles from Hawthorne, say that they
had their long and hard trip for nota-
ing. They went all over the groun1
and the men who were working there
had some good ore but not in any guam
tity. The country is covered with snow
and is very hard to get into. There are
very few prospectors in that section Of
present although the country looks very
promising. The strike which drew
men from Goldfield was reported to
have been made on the slopes of Grant
mountain in the Walker range and Sons
of the ore that was shown here at the
time showed free gold in considerable
quantities.

DUNDERBERG TUNNEL OPENS
GOOD ORE IN !. x. L. CANYON

The Dunderberg mine, in the /. X. L.
district, about twenty miles north IF
Wonder, has entered a ledge twenty
feet wide, which carries high gold, sill
yer and copper values. The strike was
made in tunnel No 2, and average as
says running from $40 to $500 were go.-
ten. AS soon as the ledge is well open
cd up a winze will be sunk and drifts
cut both ways to determine the size
of the ore body. Although some ship
ments will be made, it is stated by
those in charge of development work
that the policy of the company is to
block out reserves rather than ship,
with a view to installing a mill on the
ground. The Dunderberg Mining COM
pany ground is owned by st. Louis peo-
