Important Meeting Neglected.

A meeting of winnemucea Hose Com

some action toward improving conditions
as far as the towns protection from

This lack of interest on thS part of the
public is wrong. The business men and
taxpayers of town are the mes vitality
Interested and they should do something
toward improving conditions instead of
doing so much useless kicking.

ABOUT DONNELLY MINES.
How Prospector Who Pound Them Turned
Down His Renefactars.

Editor of the Silver State: I have seen
several items in your paper in regard to
Donnelly mountain and the litigation
that is likely to follow over claims etc.
Another party and myself gave Thomas
Shearer, the man who found the first ore
at Donnelly mountain, 500 to use as a
grub-stake for prospecting and nave let
tiers from his telling us how rich he was
going to make US before he returned or
leave his old bones in the hills; also wit
nesses that we sent him out with the
money to be used as a grub-stake.
Everything was very we'll on Mr.. Shear
er's part until he thought he had found
something at Donnelly mountain, when
he overlooked us altogether. We never
in a Reno paper that he had made a big
strike. Then we looked into the matter
and found that he had located everybody
In that happened along. When Mr..
White, the other party interested with
me, saw Mr.. Shearer in Reno he admit
ted everything and wanted to square it
by giving us our money back, but said
he could not give us half Of everything
AS he had taken too many in with him.
He is interested in the townsite. water
rights, etc, and we claim one-half of
everything he has or was interested in,
and warn all persons not to do any bust
ness with him toward buying any such
property as is mentioned. If they want
to buy a lawsuit very well. / will saw
anyone the trouble of any lawsuit by
showing them Mr.. Shearer's letters, and
If they see them they will know, IL they
know any law or can learn any, hat we
nave a right to what we claim. Should
anyone feel enough interested he can find
out the particulars by coming here and
seeing for himself or calling on Thomas
Wren, attorney-at-law, Reno New.

A strike of copper ore averaging 2S
per cent in that metal is reported in the
Ruth mine near Ely White Pine county.
A reduction plant for working ore from
the Pyramid mines, in Wasnoe county,
is to be installed either on the ground or
at ZERO.

on erecting a large ore reduction plant
at Silver Peak, EsmeraIda county, to be
operated by electric power generated in

The management of the Daily West
mine at Park City, Utah, in which a
large numbe of miners were killed by a
recent explosion, has voluntarily agreed
to settle with heirs of victims on the fol-

each child in their families.
The work of reopening the mines in
Tombstone district, Arizona, is about to
begin on ar extensive scale. About 49,
500. 900 will be required for installing mod
ern hoist m pump plants and unwater-
ing the property. The product of the
mines of that district down to the water
level was about SIS. 900, 900, Of which 20
per cent was gold. Recent Investigations
by means of drills show that large
bodies of high grade ore exist below the
water level.
From Thomas Pendry, of San Antoine,
who was a visitor to Austin Sunday and
Monday, we learn that the mines at Lib
erty, Nye county are improving in value
every day, and that last week ore was
ound at the deepest workings, 800 feet,
that assayed 1000 ounces per ton and
every indication goes to show the perma-
miners are employed in the mine, and a

which will soon be supplanted by modern

The Eureka mine at Como. Lyon

the Eastern company employs twelve
men and paysc them 81 per day of ten

HAWTHORNE DISTRICT.
Eastern Companies Spending Much Money In
Developing EsmeraIda Mines.

Hawthorne mining district, in Esmer-
aida county, bids fair to become one of
the banner camps in that section of Ne
vada within a short space of time. From
present indications it will soon begin to
loom up as beehive of mining industry.
Two Eastern companies nave taken over
the largest mining properties of the dis
trict within the past year, says the Pa
cific Coast Miner. The Hawthorne Gold
Mass, has purchased the Mascot, Re-
lance and famous War Eagle group of
mines, the final payment on these proper
ties having been made. 1t is the present
intention of the to put a force
of men at work developing n opening
UP the properties. The Mascot mine
shows a huge outcrop Of quartz and
ledge matter extending the entire length
of the claim, running north and south,
averaging from three to twenty-five feet
in width and all carrying ore values. But
very little development work has ever
been done upon this mine. Prospect tun-
nels nave been driven into the ledge close

obtained. Assays taken from or the sur
face run from IS so to $123 per ton and
assays have been obtained fifteen feet
under the surface as high as $l,4A per
ton. The property shows up well and
with development work the company has
nave a great property.
The War Eagle mine joins the Mascot
or the south. For seven years this prop
erty has been lying idle, no work being
prosecuted other than the annual assess
ment work. The company purchased this
mine for cash and every reason to believe
that development work will again place
the property among the bullion produc-
ers. Over $50, 900 has been extracted from
one ore chute. and the entire ore milled
gave an average value of $241 per ton
free milling. This mine has about 1000
the ore extracted in the earlier days ran
as high as $40 and over per pound. The
Esmeralda and Reliance mines join the
holdings of the Esmeralda Consolidated
Mines Company of Buffalo. New York.
The Consolidated Esmeralda Mines
Company has taken over the Pamlico
group of mines, adjoining the property
of the Hawthorne ,.old Mining Company.
The SAME company has also purchased
the lie Panta group of gold mines. They
have at the present time a force of about
ten men developing their water right in
Cottonwood CANYON eleven miles distant
from the Pamlico group. 1t is their in
tention to pipe the said water into ths
district, build a twenty-stamp mill, cy
anide plant and tramway. The holdings
of this company have produced upwards
of a half-million dollars, with every rea
son to believe that with development
work and depth obtained they will agar
be listed with the dividend-paying mine.
