MOZART SYMPHONY CLUE.


 Lovers of high class music will have a treat on Saturday evening, when the Mozart Symphony club will give con- cert at Poli's. This club is probably the finest concert combination in Amer ica of it's members, consisting of q magnificent string quartet. One of the things to which 1t owes its great popularity is the fact that it is the only musical organization paying solos, on such obsolete instruments as the viola D'Amour, fourteen strings, and the De Gamba, ten strings. A very fine pro- gram of classical music will be of fered, making it q most delightful con- cert for those who admire high class music. Sale of seats Friday.

table, and the men went into the big, ancient-looking parlor where the lights burned low and the breeze from the distant mountains famed the lace curtains into the room. Evelyn sat 1n a rocking-chair, her eyes on the sing er's face. Caroline was noiselessly placing 9 whist table and playing cards rear the center of the room. She, iler father, MT. Hardy and Capt. Wrinkle were the only ones who were fond of the game.
 But we shall interrupt the sing ing" protested the colonel, when he noticed the preparations.
 ''I shall stop if you don't go on with the game" declared the gentle old lady, a smile crossing her sweet, sad face; "and furthermore, I shall not sing unless you all talk over your game"
 To this the jovial host agreed un- der protest, and the whist-players took their places. Evelyn sat at the end of the piano near enough to touch the elbow of the singer. There was in- finite pathos in Mrs. Lancaster's voice as she sang: "Dey ain't no use fer to fret an pine,
 Steady on de way, believers. It's de same ole worl' wen de sun don't
 shine,
 Steady on de way believers"
 The colonel was dealing the cards, but he made mistake in the count, and with a low laugh he threw the cards down. T must wait till that one js over, anyway" he whispered. ''That blamed thing always gets the best of me" It's de same ol' worr in de sun an de Same on de hilltop an same on de plain. So keep up yo' Ahoutin' an keep on yo'

 Fur peace come Tong wen you dons wid -- pain,
 So keep up yo' sroutin' an keep on yo'

 There was just the faintest quiyer in Mrs. Lancaster's voice, which Evelyn alone noticed, and a hint of moisture in her eyes as the melody died in the still room. She turned towards the card players, who, with the exception of the dapper captain, seemed deep ly moved by her song.
 ''I knew I would stop your game" she laughed, you are too polite to enjoy life. Come, Evelyn. let's take another stroll.'

THE PRISONER OF zENDA.

THE PRISONER OF ZENDA.
 The splendid romantic drama, "rhe Prisoner of Zenda," will be the attrac- ton at Polis this evening, and 1t will undoubtedly be good one. The play itself is one of the best of the roman tic dramas written. and it has had an uninterrupted career Of success for the past half dozen seasons. It is now being produced under the direction of the Shfpman brothers. who have spe- cial arrangement with Daniel Froh- man. and they have given it a lavish scenic equipment. The cast is said to be q good one, the leading roles being taken by Elmer Buffhu1n and Miss Alice Taylor, so that the performance is likely to be very good one. 1t is the only dramatic attraction of the week at Polls and ought on that ac count to draw large audience. Prices are 20, 8, 30, "a cents and $1.

 Capt. Winkle paled and interlaced his fingers tightly on the smooth top of the mahogany table. For one second he glared like condemned man at the speaker and then the fierce stare of her eyes bore his own to the ground.
 Perhaps" spoke up Mir. Hardy, whose jests were rare and often too personal, and who did not admire the captain, perhaps Capt. Winkle did not tell Us all the story after all. I noticed that he was not wearing his togs to- day"
 Capt. Wrinkle seemed to have lost his speech. And the colonel, fearing that his daughter had inadvertently made a disagreeable comparison, frowned up at her.
 What are you talking about, Eve lyn?" he asked sharply.
 "Oh, only little storysI have read" she said, coldly. q shall try to look 1t np. If had beautiful moral"
 With that parting shot at the cower- ing victim of his own folly, she drew Mrs. Lancaster again out on the ve- randa.
 ':Why, dear, you have almost fright ened me-" said Mrs. Lancaster, under her breath. "What did you mean by what you said?''
 II meant to cut the very soul of that little coward, If he has one," the girl said, fercely. II almost feel as if I ought to have exposed him to the others before whom he was posing as brave man when he Is no more than"
 Evelyn had been speaking so rapid ly that her words ran upon one another and became jumbled, unintelligible mass.
 Mrs. Lancaster turned Evelyn's white, impassioned face towards tLe light of the moon and grasped her rigid hands. "You almost frighten me, dar- ling" she repeated; what has wrought you up to such pitch of excitement??'
 II think ought to tell you all about it." answered Evelyn, after moments deliberation, '.but 1t muxt be in confi- dence.'

Statement Made Last Week by
the "News" Is corroborated
From New York.
Company viii Work the Mines
and Resident Manager to Be
Sent to Ely.
This Movement Will Add Value
to Every Meritorious Claim
In the County.

The article in last weeks NEWS,
which conveyed to the people of Ely
the first intimation of the formation of
a giant company to develop the prop
critics of the Canton Mining Company
located in the Ely district the facts
regarding which were furnished us
direct from Washington, was yesterday
corroborated in a communication to
the NEWS from New York City.
The information from both cities was
gathered specially for the NEWS and
is perfectly reliable, the preliminary
steps for the formation of the company
having already been perfected, and the
further information is added that a
manager has been appointed to come
to Ely and take charge OF the prop
critics, preparatory to the beginning OF
actual work.
This company has some of the best
properties in the district to develop
and with unlimited capital at its COM
mand it will soon establish Ely's claim
to being one OF the richest mineralized
sections in the west

ANOTHER DAILY MAIL.
Six-Day Service from Wells on Il
Thirty-One Hour Schedule.

B.F. Miller, who has the contract for
carrying the mail from Wells To Cherry
Creek, and thence to Ely, received a
telegram from Washington last Satur-
day stating that instructions will be
forwarded within few days directing
him to proceed direct from Wells to
Ely with the mail six times a week on
n schedule OF thirty-one hours.
1t is understood no change is contem-
plated In the route from Ely TO Eureka
but the rapidly increasing Importance of
this camp is recognized by the Depart
ment, and everything possible will be
done to give Ely iirstclass mail service.
This will give us two mails each day
and II Is understood under the new ar
rangement the mail matter will be so
divided that both the eastern and west
ern mails will be forwarded direct from
the main line OF railroad without lying
over at any point. At present no mail
Is received here on Tuesday, but when
the new order goes into effect we will
have mail every day, with a doub.N
service FIVE times a week.

THROUGH WEST CAMP.
Work Being Done on Number
OF Claims.


The present season is proving a live
ly one in the several properties through
West Camp and the various claim hold
ers, realizing that they have a good
thing are faithfully complying with the
law in doing their assessment work.
In the Payton, owned by r. A.
Riepe, a splendid showing has been
made, there being at the present time
hundred tons of ore or more on the
dump which will average 20 per cent
copper, while at another point in the
property ore has been taken which
went from 500 to 600 ounces in silver
to the ton. In the copper workings
the shaft is in good ore which is far in
excess of the average above quoted.
At the present time Mr.. Riepe has
three men at work in the Laura w,
where an excellent showing is also be-
ing made, and at the Tutweiler and
Tutweiler No. l, the assessment work
for the season has been completed, the
result showing high grade of copper
ore on the dumps.
During the past week Mr.. Riepe COM
pleted the assessment work on the
Weber, owned jointly by him and P.
C. Weber. This property lies just
north of Copper Flat, and the shaft,
which has been commenced is a fine
niece of work manship.
1t is in this vicinity that Mrs. L. F.
Shepherd recently located her five
claims, and on one of these new dump
is already visible. These properties
are well located and before the location
work is completed it is believed some
evidence of their value will be appar-
ent.
At the Morris, which was recently
purchased by Messrs. Giroux and
Snedaker, the work of widening the
shaft to double compartment will be
completed by the first of next week,
when sinking will be resumed, the in.
structions being, ii is understood, to
go down until water is encoun tered.
The Morris is a good property, and the
prediction is made that it will make
name for itself as copper producer.

WATCH cOcOMONGO.
Rich Discoveries Being Made In
That Promising Camp.

Glowing accounts continue to come
from Cocomongo, another OF White
Pines promising camps, and Will A.
Watson, who came In from there last
week, brought with him some ore sam
Piles in which particles OF free gold
stand out prominently.
This is from the Joano mine, owned,
by Mr.. Watson, and on which eight
men are now at work, two on wages
and six on leases. From that proper
ty Mr.. Watson has had worked several
tons of ore at the Campbell mill, thirty
five miles distant, which yielded from
$03 to slOS In gold, and, as there was
no means for concentration, less than
two thirds OF the values were saved.
Messrs. Culver & Cook, who came in
from Arizona a short time ago, are
working a portion OF the Joana on a
lease and their shipment of ore, which
they personally treated at the Camp
bell mill, netted them sl4l per ton in
free gold.
Mr.. Watson is now down sixty-fve
feet with his main shaft, and the quail
ity OF the ore is improving in depth.
Arrangements are being made to
have five stamps at the Star mill at
Cherry Creek operated on ores from
the Cocomongo mines, and II the Star
Comnanv reftises To treat the ores the
mill in Egau Canyon will probably be
utilized.
Geo. Eckman, also has a valuable
claim IN the same vicinity from which
he took out sil0O last Fall, and this
season is meeting with equally good
success.
In the Combination mine, owned by
Hugh Frank, the ore runs 10 per cent
lead and 200 ounces silver.
Just north OF this w. b. Lawlor is
working a valuable claim, the shaft in
which is down 81 feet, with two tunnels
the upper one being in 200 feet and
the other 400 feet In the latter the
vein has just been struck, and there is
every indication OF the property de-
veloping into rich producer.
From the region south oi Cocomongo
toward Telegraph Canyon prospecto RS
last week brought samples OF ores,
taken from the surface which showed
IS in gold and per cent copper.

AT THE CHAIRMAN.
New General Manager Arrives
and Enters on His Duties.

New General Manager Arrives
and Enters on His Duties.
r. J. Dawson, the new General
Manager OF the Chairman Mining
and Electric Company, reached Ely
shortly after noon yesterday, and at
once entered upon the discharge oi
his duties.
Mr.. Dawson comes as the
representative of the Board of Direct
ors and will act for that body in all
matters which arise, taking general
charge of the construction of the new
mill, and after that is completed will
act in the same capacity in the man.
agement of the company's business
affairs, working In conjunction with
Superintendent Shepherd in the same
capacity as would the Board of Direct
ors If they were personally present.
He expressed himself last evening as
being well satisfied with the prog
ress which had been made during his
absence, and although he had very
little time to examine the mine, was
satisfied that everything possible had
been done to facilitate the work con-
templated.
While in Salt Lake City Mr.. Davi-
son was informed by the Salt Lake
Hardware Company that all the ma
chinery for the new mill was now on
the way from Salt Lake, with the ex.
ception of the material for the big
tanks which are to be constructed on
the ground, and he will devote his first
attention to hurrying the delivery oil
the material for the mill. The work
now is well ahead OF the machinery
contractors, and it Is believed the mil
will be in operation at the date specified
in the contract.
1t is the understanding that Mr..
Dawson is to remain as General Mana
ger after the mill is com oleted, and
after trial run has been made he will
return to the East for his family. He
hopes to be able to establish his per-
manent residence in Ely, and it is to be
hoped that the health of his family
will enable him to do so, as he is just
the kind of man we seed to help de,
ve'op the resources of the country.
Mr.. Dawson says the Chairman
stockholders in the East are perfectly
satisfied with their holdings, and that
among capitalists generally Ely is
looked upon as good field for invest
ment

RETURN OF A PIONEER.
Capt. Frank Drake Is Again OPP
Grating at Hamilton.

Capt. Frank Drake has taken bond
on the Protection and Rex claims at
Hamilton owned by Lani, Ghirardelli
and Muir and already has shaft down
forty feet in the property. These are
lead propositions joining the famous
Rocco Homestake mine on the south,
and it is understood the showing thus
far made is highly gratifying.
Capt. Drake was the manager of the
Eberhardt properties in the early days,
being succeeded by VIM. Reed, and his
return at this time to resume mining
operations shows his faith In old White
Pine, and his many friends in this
county will extend to him a cordial
welcome.
The deep snow in the mountains has
interfered to "a considerable extent with
the Captains efforts to round up his
range horses, but he will make another
attempt in the near future which he
hopes will be more successful,

WIN. REED RETURNS.
Work to Be Resumed in the Old
Eberhardt Tunnel.


Mr. and Mrs. VIM. Reed and their
two daughters, Charlotte and Clara,
arrived in ely Tuesday from Santa
Cruz, California, and after a short visit
with Mr.. and Mrs. w. B. Graham,
left the same afternoon for their old
home at the Monitor Mills, where they
will remain for a couple of months or
more.
Several years ago Mr.. Reed was the
general manager Of the Eberhardt
Mining Company in this county and
later succeeded to the ownership OF the
properties, and he and his family have
host of friends here who are glad TO
welcome them back, especially so when
they learn that there 5 a possibility of
their coming back at later date to
remain permanently.
During his stay here Mr.. Reed will
put force of men at work in the old
Eberhardt tunnel at Hamilton, and
will satisfy himself as to the permanent
cy of the ore deposits found in the ex-
tension OF the tunnel before the mines
closed down.
The main tunnel in the Eberhardt is
in 1915 feet in direct line and the
property produced several fortunes in
days gone by.
Mr.. Reed says the machinery in the
old Eberhardt mill has been sold to the
Sacramento Pipe Works, and the work
of breaking it up and shipping 1t to
Sacra amento will commence in a few
DAYS.
