Hon. P. r. Farnsworth, who is con-
nected with a number of important ard
successful mining enterprises through
out the west, in the capacity of man
ager as well as co-owner, returned
home yesterday from Nevada, where
he has been directing affairs in the
operation of the Austin silver-lead mine
at Austin. and the new gold mine at
lone. the former being located in Ian
der. and the latter in Ny'e county.
In speaking of the Austin property,
Mr. Farnsworth stated that everything
was working in a satisfactory manner
there. and that the mine was showing
UP fine bodies of ore, which are IN
creasing in size as work progresses
AT the present time Mr. tarnsWorlh
is working a force of about 100 men
in the Austin, who are taking out from
60 to 20 tons of shipping and milling ore
daily; while, as TO the new mil, con-
centrating plant, it is working IN
most satisfactory manner.
In speaking of the gold mine at lone,
Mr.. FarnsWorth states that he is CIV
ing 60 men employment in its develop
ment, and that within the next two or
three weeks a new 1O-stamp mill will be
treating the ore from this property,
which was nothing more than pros
pect last summer, when he first took
hold OF It Now, however, he has
enough ore blocked out in its workings
to Justify the erection Of a plant, and
Mr.. Farnsworth is confident that this
will develop into a dividend-paying
proposition.

Mr.. Farnsworth is sanguine that with
continued development it will come 20
the front as a commercial proposition.
Mr.. Farnsworth is highly impressed
with the naturalization of Nevada, and
is surprised that this state, with its
wealth and diversity of the precious
metals, has been so long neglected and
overlooked by mining men and invest

long before he viii be heard from in a
substantial manner, as, before leaving,
he ordered 500 stout canvass ore sacks,
and he has announced his intention of
sending in a carload shipment of very
high-grade gold and silver ore as soon
as possible, and when this arrives IL
will be recorded as the first consign-
ment from this promising camp, which
possesses all the earmarks and indica-
lions of soOl making a name as well
as fame as a prolific producer of the
yellow metal, and if Mr.. Mcleod con-
Guides to ship from the body of syl-
Vanite tale which carries average val
ues of $4,000 in gold and 1000 ounces in
silver to the ton, its receipt in this
city should create considerable excite
ment in mining circles and stamp the
Charlie Ross, from which claim the ore
will be taken, as a full-grown bonanza.
Mr.. Mcleod informs The Herald that
he has practically given the Colorado
Iron Works company the contract for
ten-staInp mill, with a power capacity
for 20 stamps, besides which a Sawnill
will be included in the order, it being
the intention to equip the property with
a complete plant in every respect, as
the operations of Mr.. Mcleod and his
associates viii be extensive in the fu-
ture from the fact that besides the
Charlie Ross group, the Campbell group
has been added TO the holdings of the
interested parties.
DR.. W. ]. Nelson. one of the heavy
hackers of the enterprise, who has been
in the city during the past few days,
left yesterday for Warrington, New,
where he owns smelling plant, which
is now in successful operation.

face and the management. went after
it in the lower workings, striking it ac
cording to calculations Manager Howe
said yesterday the mine would, in the
spring. be equipped with a first-class
plant for working the ore. The ore will
be treated by cyanide and amalgama-
ton.
NJ. Hyde is in from Willow Creek. He
says development work is proceeding
in the Dewey properties there. He cor
roborateS everything that has been said
concerning the King mine. He says the
vein is as fine as anything he has ever
seen in the camp. and gives assurance
that the King Will be good producer.
The King ledge contains a 20-inch vein
of ore that Mr.. Hyde pronounces excep-
tionally rich. Much wire gold can be
seen in the ore. The King has been de-
veloped by a cross-cut tunnel. which
tapped the ledge at depth of 40 feet.
Considerable drifting has since been
done with gratifying results. Mr.. Rig
don has the west extension of the King,
and Mr.. Hyde says it is looking well.

COWARD AND CAPTAIN.
Fright Kills One and High Resolve
Saves the Other.

A story is told of a cowardly fellow
lying behind a stump during an en- :
gagement, when a bullet knocked a
chip from a stone near by.
The chip struck him in the forehead,
scarcely breaking the skin The
frightened fellow cri Il out that he vas
fatally wounded, and rolled over IN a
faint from which he never came ont
A captain near by was found To have
eight bullet wounds, and when told in
the hospital that he couldn't get well,
exclaimed: yes, 1 will; give me good
food and a little time to rest, and by
all the powers, I'll be out of here. My
little children need me, and / would be
a coward to die and leave them help
less" He got well. and is a hale old
man today, and his children haven't
forgotten him.
Mark the fact that the mind in the
towards case stopped the machinery
of life, and the mind in the captains
case kept the machinery going, when
skilled physicians said it must stop.
Man becomes a god when the mind
mounts to the altitude of high resolve.
and by some occult process he, at that
time, takes unto himself some of the
power of the Infinite.
Let one apply this power when aches
and ails of body threaten to overcome.
1t is a most valuable agent for good
health. One should, however, COM
bine good food with a good mind, and
if ails of any kind press their claims
day by day. heed the protests of nature
before some incurable disease sets up
in the body.

WONDERFULLY RICH QUARTZ.
Remarkable Find Not Far From
Baker, City, Oregon.

The Democrat of Baker City, Ore.
says:
Yesterday some mining men displayed
to Democrat representative at the
Hotel Warshauer 120 pounds of quartz
found not a great distance from Baker
City, which small amount of rock is
estimated by experienced operators in
precious minerals to contain not less
than $1,100 in pure gold.
This startling find excited even vet
eran miners. Verify, the sight of this
gold-studded rock, a ton of which would
assay over $4,000, ought to be a SPLEEN

fever.
The owners, who have a probable for
tune awaiting them, do not wish to yet
publish the location of their rich prop
erty, but informed the Democrat man
that their bonanza is within easy reach
of Baker City. and that they will early
in the spring delve out tons of the same
treasure bearing quartz, promising to
make showing which icy Alaska can

The Gevser-Marion.

Generalization made rapid strides up
ward yesterday, and it is believed that
it viii not be long before the stock of
the company again touches the dollar
mark. and even higher, the cause of
this restoration to public favor being
the fact that the courts have decided in
favor of the company in the Duncan
and Mosby cases; the forthcoming div
fdend which will doubtless be paid
some time during the coming month,
and also because OF the favorable re-
ports received from the mine to the
effect that in the winze from the lower
tunnel level fine body of ore is be-
ing exposed, the indications being that
this is one of the largest mineral zones
yet uncovered in the property.
Taking it all in all, the outlook for
the Geyser- Marion is beginning to as
sumo a rosy hue.
