fragments Of ore and tailings ct the
chairman last week. the result being
$50 pounds Of cyanides, which were
shipped on Sunday to Selby 3 Co. at
San Francisco. It is estimated that

borhood of s2, 500 in gold. This COM
pletes the work Of the old mill, which
will be silent henceforth until in the
course of time It may be decided to
tear it down and utilize the material

must inevitably follow the completion
OF the new plant.

THE M'KlNLEY MINES.


The news has reached this offlce
from reliable source that the pre-
liminary steps have been taken in the
East within the past few days for the
Organization of . giant company to
develop the mines in the vicinity Of ely
in which Mrs. Mckinley Is the princi-
pal owner. It Is known that for some
time past the President has bee1
taking q lively interest In these pro-
pertles and on the occasion Of his
recent visit to San Francisco he had
q consultation with B. L. Smith Of the
Eureka County Bank concerning them.
What the result Of that interview was
could not be learned, but since the
return Of the Presidential party to
Washington It Is announced that q
number Of statesmen and capitalists
have acquired an intimate knowledge
Of Ely's mining resources, and now
comes the announcement that the
organization of the company is under
way
With such valuable properties as the
Canton claims on which to base an
organization, and the influence which
the Presidents connection with the
enterprise will have, there win be no
limit to the amount OF money which
can be secured for the capitalization
Of the new company, and no one who
| is acquainted with the value Of the
properties embraced in Mrs. McKin-
ley's holdings here will question the
success OF the venture.
The effect which the formation OF
such company would have in adver-
tising Ely and White Pine county and
placing our mining resources before
the world will be apparent to all, and
the result will be a demand for claims
in this district such as has never before
been known.
About three weeks ago w. G. Lyons
purchased half interest in the Eli
Mining claim from P. @. Weber and
at once began prospecting the property
with the result that he uncovered q
rich body OF ore, the assays on which
showed values ranging as high as $40
in gold to the ton; but 1t now develops
that this ore body is on the Saxton,
one Of Mrs. McKinly's patented claims,
and work on the property has been
suspended by Mr.. Lyons. A. D. Camp
ton went out last Saturday afternoon
and surveyed the claim, establishing
the fact that the rich find is well with
in the Saxton lines, and W. N. McGill,
who made the original survey for
United States patents on the Saxton,
resurveyed the properties yesterday at
the request of the owners, the result
being that he pronounced the lines run
by Mr.. Campton to be correct. The
Saxton has long been recognized as
one OF the best properties in the dis
trict and present Indications are that
it viii soon be added to Ely's list of pro.
ducers.

Judge Talbot to imprisonment in the
State Prison for the term of his natural

The crime OF which Hamilton was
convicted was committed in Pleasant
Valley, this county on January 26,
1899, the victim being Marion Clement,
and the circumstances connected with
the case, as shown by the evidence,
revealed the fact that Clement was
shot la the back while leaving Ham
i!ton's house, where quarrel had
taken place between the two.
Hamilton maintained during the
trial that he was innocent OF the crime,
but the evidence introduced left nc
doubt as to his guilt.

1t isa fact known only to . very few
that during the past year placer loca.
tions have been made on : tract oI
ground extending from tho moutL u
the canyon, just west Of Ely, almost 70
the Keystone, and the result Of tests
made has been SO satisfactory that 4
company has now been formed ia
thoroughly prospect the ground
and by the use Of the latest improved
machinery determine the values Of the
gold deposits which II Is known have
found . resting place on the bedrock
several feet below the surface.
The directors Of the new company
are Dix w. Smith, Milan Hibbard and
John Bull of Elmira, N. r.; Edward

d. Smith OF Ely.
A Beale Core Drill has been pur-
chased by the new company and Il will
be shipped from the factory at Elyria,
Ohio, on the 10th Of this month. This
is new invention, by means Of which
hole elk inches In diameter is bored
from the surface to the bedrock, and
into this is inserted an iron tube. Then
q smaller steel tube is inserted inside Of
this which is forced into the bedrock
and thes core remaining at the lower
end is raised to the surface with its de-
posit Of gold which is gathered by the
action OF the water which Is forced
down through the opening msdsby the
drill.
In this way thorough tests viii be
made at various places in the com
pany' . ground, and when the value ol
the deposits is determined 1t Is their
intention to issue stock and begin the
systematic development Of the prop
erty by means Of drifts along the bed
rock. The present members Of tia
comnanv have r,bscrIbed the none,

vo,nr woman who sings In a church
oboir in this city was in n OF the de-
nortment stores the other day when
Ave detective employed there stopped

with a long cape and a bag at an ad-
dining counter. said:
"Iust watch that woman work."
The singer saw the woman take two
articles from the counter when the
s~boprirl was not looking and drop
them into her bag.
"V1ly, she is stealing" she said.
ayes" said the detective, land II you
will follow her to the next counter with
me YOU will see her take more things"
The singer was interested, and she
walked along with the detective. Two
more articles were dropped in the bag.
md thon the detective arrested the
shonlifter. She made the usual scene
and protested her innocence. The de-
tectlye asked the singer If she would
step back to the office with him and
~corrohorate his charges. and she went.
unconscious Of further trouble. There
was no doubt as to the shoplifter's
rnflt. She came of a respectable fam
liz. and she convinced the singer that
she took the articles not because she
needed them or the money that they
would bring. but because she had the
sboplifting habit.
When these facts were settled. the
detective thanked the singer for her as
sjstance and told her that she must he
