On the morning of their departure
from Ely last week, Messrs. e. L. and
Joseph Giroux and A. J. Snedaker
secured an option on four more claims
on the Copper Belt, thus increasing
their holding in this camp to something
like thirty-fve claims.
The properties secured last week are
the Clipper, Clipper No. ,, Protector
aud Guptil the three last named being
the property OF John Mungerson,
while the Clipper is owned by Mrs.
Mungerson, and are located just mort b

ARE YOU INSUREDs
II Not, Now Is the Time to Take
Out a Policy.

=
As Ely increases In population and
Importance the subject OF fire insur-
ance is being given more attention,
and property owners are beginning to
realize that it is not good business pol
icy to allow their buildings and per-
sonal property to go uninsured. Even
though no fire occurs, the feeling Of
security which an insurance policy In
reliable company brings to the as
sured is In itself worth many times the
cost of the premium. But the expert
ence of other towns has demonstrated
that disastrous fires break out when
least expected, sweeping away thous-
ands of dollars worth OF property, and
then the unfortunate victims, who are
uninsured, wish they had taken the
preeaution to secure policy before 1t
was too late. l. c. G. Whitmore, the
old and reliable insurance agent Of
Eureka, who represents nearly all the
fire companies authorized TO do busi.
ness in this State, is prepared to write
policies on property In White Pine
and adjoining counties, and invites cor.
respondence from those desiring infor-
nation on insurance matters. Read
his advertisement, which appears else
where in this issue OF the NEWS, and
communicate with him regarding the
cost of "A policy.

WEST CAMP ACTIVITY.
Many Men to Be Employed in the
Different Properties.

As the result of the visit TO Ely last
week OF Messrs. Giroux and Snedaker,
preparations for the resumption OF
work on a number of properties which
have been idle for months, are again
under way. In the Pilot Knob shaft
work is to be resumed in a few days,
and sinking, which has been inter-
rupted for a few weeks past, will again
be prosecuted with vigor.
For the Taylor and the Brooks. also,
new pumps and steam hosting plants
have been ordered, and as soon as they
arrive, systematic work will be begun
ia the development of those properties,
under the direction OF Superintendent
Geo. F. Paul. In the Taylor the shaft
is now down $50 feet, aud in the Brooks
"a depth OF go feet has been reached.
Messrs. Snedaker aud GlrouX realized
that the further development Of these
mines could not. be proftably continued
by means OF a whim, and as water is
likely to be encountered in each at any
moment, the pumps and hoists were
ordered at the same time.
Messrs. W. b. and T. NJ. Root, who
recently came here from Denver, and
who have been at work in the Cumber-
land, have suspended work on that
property and shifted their base OF
operation to the Jupiter, adjoining,
Messrs. Snedaker and Giroux having
concluded that the Cumberland work
ing are slightly OIL the copper ledge.
In this same neighborhood, also,
it is probable a force of men will short
ly be at work on the Clipper, Clipper
No ?, Protector, and Guptill, the
claims bonded last week by these gen
tlemen from John Mungerson and wife,
and all these operations, together with
the developments at the Morris and
the Monarch, and the assessment work
being done on Individual claims, win
shortly transform West Camp into a
hive Of industry.

At copper Flat.

Among the many properties now be-
ing developed here the best showing
for the week has probably been in the
Star shaft at Copper Flat, where Jos.
Bray has three shifts employed in sink
ing Each successive deposit of orc on
the dump tells the story of what is
being accomplished under ground, and
one needs but so glance at the satisfied
smile on Mr.. Bray's countenance as he
examines the output, to realize that all
is well at Copper Flat. In this re-
markable property The ore values have
increased steadily from the very sur
face, and at the present depth the
best showing OF all is being made, with
the shaft still going down to penetrate
richer values underneath.

KILLED TWO HORSES.
Assessor Williamson ls Maxim g
a Record for Himself.

J. b. Williamson started out on trip
through the western part OF the county,
last week taking with him a span
of black mares from ]. II. Eager's barn.
On reaching Capt. Moorman's ranch /,
one Of the animals lay down and died,
but the Assessor secured another ami.
NAL and proceeded on his journey.
When the Six Mile House was reached
the other mare lay down life's burdens
and followed her mate to the happy
hunting gro md, and it is related that
Mr. Williamson was compelled to make
his way back to Hamilton with one
horse. He returned to Ely on Tues
day, having been notified that the suit
against the Revenue Board, to which
he has been made a party, will come
up at Carson ON the 2lst inst.

BIG SUIT Commenced.
Mrs. MckinIey and Mrs. Barber
Sue for Possession OF One
Of Their Mines.
AIeo Demana ei0. 900 DAMAGES
from John Steele, VIM.
Hayes and Others.
Suit to BE Tried In the United
Statss Circuit Court at
Carson.

Suit has been commenced In the
United States Court At Carson by Mrs.
Ida Mckinley and Mrs. Mary B. Bar
Der against John Steele, VIM. Hayes,
Richard Roe and John Doe, to recover
possession Of the Elijah mine, one of
the patented claims of the Canton Min
ing Company, on which, 1t is alleged.
the defendants arc operating, and also
for 90, 900 damages, being for the ore
taken out and shipped by the defend
ants during the period of the occupancy
of the mine. The papers were served
on the local defendants on Monday last
by Sheriff Geo. F. Newman, who had
been appointed Field Marshal for this
particular duty, and the parties are re-
quired to answer at Carson within forty
days.
Mr.. Steele is tho owner OF the Macon
City mine, adjoining the Elijah, and
denies that he has at any time extrac-
ted orc from the patented claim, all
his workings being well within his own
lines. He states that he will contest
the suit to the end and that he will
proceed with the extraction OF ores just
as though nothing had happened. Mr..
Hayes claims no interest In the prop
erty, his connection with the matter
being only as shipping agent for Mr..
Steele, and the advancing of freight
and other charges as occasion requires.
He has instructed his attorney to an
swer for him, however, and considers
it high honor to be sued for 10000
by the Presidents wife.
For long time past the charge has
been made that Mr.. Steele has been
shipping ore from the patented claim,
and before this suit Is decided it is cer-
tain that the boundary lines of both
the Elijah and Macon City win be es-
tablished.
When Deputy United States Mineral
Surveyor McGill returns from his Salt
Lake trip he will find all kinds of bust
ness awaiting him in Ely.
