rare Fish FROM F9ortda.

With 274 specimens of So varieties
of tropical fish from the waters about
Key West Fla, Chapman Grant, of
the New York aquarium, and Danforth
,. Ferguson, the 16-year-old grandson
of H. o. Armour, of Kansas City, ar
rived aboard the Comal, of the NAL
lory line. The fish were brought in
tanks and they arrived in good order.
Mr.. Ferguson expressed recently a
desire to go shark hunting with Mr..
Grant, and the trip was arranged three
weeks ago. A week was spent in fish
ing off Key West, with good sport, and
by the aid of a glass bottomed boat
both Mr.. Grant and Ferguson learned
much of the animal life on the coral
reefs. Several sharks were caught, but
the quantities of rare tropical fish were
so great they decided there was more
sport IN obtaining specimens. Through
the glass bottom of the boat the fish
could plainly be seen, and wire traps
were set in the most advantageous To-
cations.
Butterfly fish, doctors with a
bone lancet sheathed near the bill;
shark suckers, Southern buffers, par
rot fish, blue tangs, Spanish hogs fish,
shoots, toad fish and scamps were a
few of the varieties brought back,
manX of which were new to the aquar-
ium tanks. Two great Jew fish, each
weighing $50 pounds. were caught

A MOMENToUs LUNCH.

After this, when a railroad presi-
dert strolls across the border to have
lunch with a friend, he will probably
see to it that the table is spread in
the middles of the street, and that the
conversation is reported by official
stenOgraphers," writes Charles f. Van
Loan in The Munsey for December
In an article, "A Scare a Day in Wall
Street. he tells the following story:
"a rumor or railroad consolidation
which amazed America. startled Cana.
da. and shocked London. grew out Of
the most innocent circumstance in the
world. The president of the Erie rail
road, wandering about the country in
his private car, visited Montreal, and
while there took lunch with the presi-
dent of the Canadian Pacific behind
closed doors.
That was absolutely all the foundu-
ton there was to the story. yet before
the cigars came on the table in Mon
treal, New York, London and the 9th
er great financial conters were throw
ing handsprings over the report that
the Canadian Pacific was closing a
deal for the purchase of the Erie.
Away went the Erie stock like sky
rocket Away went the market"

employe at the ranch for long time
Last Saturday he went out to the corral
to do the milking, and not returning on
time others went to seai ch for him. He
was found dead on the ground beside a
COW he had just finished milking. An
inquest which was held showed that he
had come to his death from natural

ANOTHER STRIKE
IN MASON PASS

Al Matt made another good find on
the Slater property in Mason Pass this
week In fact it is the most promising
and richest thing that has been discov-
cred in that section. This strike was
made while trenching. and has exposed
ledge p feet wide south of and run
ming parallel to the ledge i'll which the
previous strike was made as described in
these columns some weeks ago. This
newly found ledge is about feet south
of the other ledge, and NAV be the foot
wall of it. However, it has porphyry
foot wall and black, altered diorite
hanging wall. The trench run across it
only opens it up to a depth of about
three feet but the ore pans like house
instances that will give the ore a value
of over 500 per ton. You can't get
skunked in any of the paintings, but
they will not always run as high as $780,
1t is safe to say, however, that the ore
for the entire width of the ledge will go
at least SIS per ton.
The Mason Pass section is not getting
the attention it should have from those
looking for gold prospects. Such
strikes as have been made there in the
last two months, if made ten years ago,
would have created a stampede to the
district, and they would cause stam-
pede to any other section of the State if
made i'll some remote corner, inconvient
to get to and where privations would
have to be endured. little capital is
needed to open up some of the discov-
cries in Mason Pass, and it is hard to
believe that where such prospects are
found systematic ard intelligent devel-
opnent work will fail to show good
mine or two

ore dipped ont of the shaft and at the
l50-foot level drift As feet in length
was run to cross-cut the ledge, or body.
Surveys show that this drift will have to
be extended i'll the neighborhood of 20
feet to do this. The character of the
ore is cuprite, or red oxide, which will
run from to 10 per cent i'll the red
metal.
i. +. Hoh and Fred Lennard are
largely interested in this property, and
the former has been given a contract to
extend the drift, above spoken of, to cut
the ore.
The property is situated so that ore
can be shipped from it over the Copper
Belt road when the line is completed to
the Nevada Douglas, and it is the inten-
ton of Mr.. Suter to be ready to ship the
high grade stuff to the Mason Valley
smelter as soon as that institution is
ready to receive ore. This will help the
company to paw running expenses while
work is going on.
