ANOTHER PIONEER GONE.

John Hensley, another of Nevada's
pioneers, died suddenly of pneumonia
at Munro's hotel last Tuesday after
noon. He was doing some assessment
work at West Camp, where he caught
a severe cold in the storm before
Thanksgiving His condition became
worse the first of the week and Tues
day morning team was sent to bring
him to Ely. where he could have prop
er care and medical attendance. 1t was
too late, however, as he had not been a
strong man for'years and tho disease
had taken too firm hold. Yet the end
was not expected so soon and when it
came. he was alone. Mrs. Munro had
stepped ont Of the room to prepare him
some hot soup and, when she returned,
he still sat in his chair, with his head
tipped TO one side as though in slumber,
but it was The everlasting sleep. The
funeral took place Wednesday after
noon and his body was laid to rest
amidst the wind and snow of the cold
December day, but his spirit, let us
hope, has fed whittier the storms and
troubles of life cannot follow.
John Honsley was native OF Iowa,
whence he came to this State about
1863 in company with Dave McQuitty
and numerous party of their immedi-
ate relatives. Since that time he has
resided in the State continuously, most
of the time at Austin and Mineral Hill.
About four years ago he came to this
district whore he has been employed as
watchman at the keystone property.
He made many friends in this commu-
nifty and was regarded rs straightfor-
ward ana upright man in all his deal
ings. He leaves three brothers and a
sister, the wife of Sheriff McGregor OF
Nye county. to mourn his loss.

THE ROBUST SALE.
A Small Mill to be Erec ted at
Once.

Mr. I. FL. Chase, who has taken a
bond on the Robust mine, returned
from Salt Lake City Thursday evening,
bringing good news not alone to the
owners of the property, but to every
man, woman and child in Ely. He
has enlisted the support of one of the
best known capitalists of Salt Lake,
whose name we have been asked not to
make public at present, and the work
of development will begin at once. An
experimental cyanide plant will be erect
cd as soon as the material arrives on the
ground. This plant will consist of a
crusher, set of Cornish rolls and leach
ing tanks sufficient to handle about 80
tons of ore per day, with boilers and
engine as motive power. Mr.. Chase is
himself an expert mining man and in
tends to remain here several weeks and
give the work his personal attention.
He is confident that he has secured a
mine and will spare no efforts to prove
it. We wish him unbounded success as
the future not only of the Robust, but
also of many other properties in the
camp, depends upon the outcome of
this enterprise.

AT GRANITE DISTRICT.

w. D. Campbell who was in town
with his wife the first of the week, re-
ports that Jack StinsOn had just COM
pleted run of about ten tons of ore
through the Ben Hur mill with very
encouraging results. Although the
cleanup had not been completed, there
was every indication that the ore had
run at least $50 per ton in gold. Mr.
Stinson has some very promising claims
in the district and the above cleanup is
the result of his own unassisted labor.
The ledge is now somewhat narrow but
there is no telling what developements
will show.
Mr.. Campbell, informed us that he,
too, is expecting to make mill run of
some ore from the Ben Hur which he
has extracted from his new tunnel.
He is now in about 80 #. and has four
foot ledge exposed. We will hear more
OF the Granite district before long.

PROGRESS AT THE STAR 6
GREY EAGLE MINE.

From our Cherry Creek correspondent.
A visitor to the Star & Grey Eagle
mines is astonished at the wonderful
transformation taking place there,
where short time since the place was
scone of desolation and decay, result
inc from the destruction of the hoisting
works by fire and the abandonment OF
the property for many years. Now ii
is one busy hives you can see the mast
er hand of the Superintendent in lay
ing out the works-trails made into
good roads and grading done in every
direction for the convenience of the
numerous teams engaged in hauling
material for the various buildings, and
supplies from one part of the mine to
another. Busy hands are putting the
ponderous engine and machinery in
place in the hoisting works; others are
hewing logs, grading for, and building
ore bins below the dumps. The black
smiths, carpenters and laborers are all
on the quick move. In the mill set
of millwrights are at work-one glance
at whom will tell you they are superior
mechanics. In fact every movement
demonstrates there is good feeling
among the employees, and healthy
swing all along the works.
The mill now being put in order is a

ment at White Pine in 1968-69 drew him
like many others of the best men of the
Coast, and George entered heartily into
the business pursuits of the new COM
munity, engaging in numbering, mining
and newspaper work-not by any means
neglecting politics, being an ardent Re-
publican. With the waning prosperity
OF the camp, he struck out for new
fields in the mountains, winding up in
Cherry Creek where he arrived in 1873,
and engaged in mining and other busi-
ness with varied success.
George lived nearly q quarter of a
century amongst us, an honest, up
right man. No one doubted his word
and he had no enemies. His many
friends mourn his departure although
to him it was doubtless great relief, as
he has been suffering for q long time
from painful illness. His friend and
brother Oddfellow, McAuley, was un-
remitting in his care and attention to
him for several months, having with
filial devotion done everything possible
to alleviate his suffering and provide
for his necessities.
Previous to forming the funeral cor
tege, his friends met at his residence,
where Mrs. F. A. McDermid, Miss Nora
Mason and Messrs. Sund berg, Pascoe,
and Jewell sang very reverently and
pathetically, "Shall we meet beyond
the river" when the eyes of strong
men moistened and the cheeks of the
ladies required their handkerchiefs.
At the grave the same ladies and
gentlemen sang Nearer, my God, to
Thee" and "Jesus, Lover of my soul. "
Mr.. d. r. Collins read the buriaf SER
