The Cerbat mine, at Cerbat, is one of
the best properties in the Wallapai
mining district. Some years ago the
writer was interested in lease on the
mill and mine and from the surface
ores, by the aid of a Duncan concen-
trator, made a product that gave re-
turns of HAS gold, Is ounces silver and
l3la per cent copper, besides saving on
plates l0S per ton from the free gold
in the ore. The vein is one of the
strongest in the camp and cuts the
country for long distance. We hope
the owners will put in plant adapted
to the ores and resume operations in
the near future.

A Big Mine and a Big Mil.

G. W. Beecher returned Tuesday
evening from ten days trip to the
Searchlight country and is enthusias-
tic over the possibilities of that coun-
try. He says there are numerous big
veins in and around Searchlight that
will become immense producers of
gold. The McCurdy mine, owned by
the Quartette Company, at depth of
$50 feet has ledge p feet wide, all
ore. The vein on the surface was of
moderate size but has been widening
with every foot of depth, and what is
still more satisfactory, there has been
no loss in values, but on the contrary
the ore is better than on the surface.
The company own several other min
ing claims, but this vein has the deep
est workings. At Quartette, on the
Colorado river, sixteen miles from the
mines, the company has in course of
construction one of the best appointed
gold mills in the state of Nevada. The
mill Is one or ~ stamps capacity, but
the company will soon have to install
a much larger plant to handle the pro-
duct from their large mines. +. w.
Dunn, 10 whose intelligence and un.
tiring energy is due the present salts,
factory conditions at both mine and
mill, is the resident director of the
company. Mr.. Beecher also found big
veins of both copper and silver bear
ing ores in that section and believes
that wide attention will be called to its
resources by fall and winter events.

pleasure Of spending a little more

probability of paying debts with
cheap cotton next year. The
