BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR
The T0NOPAH CITY
Soft Lava Gaping Is Encountered at
a Depth Of Ninety Feet .. Same
Formation as the Fraction.

The attention of those in camp who
interest themselves particularly in
the development of the mines in the
immediate vicinity is now being di
rected toward the property of the
Tonopah City Mining Company, and
the work now being prosecuted is
watched with considerable interest
The claims of this company are most
favorably located and the fact that
so many of our townspeople are in
vesting in large blocks of its treas
ury stock is indicative of the conf
dence placed in the future of the
property.
Joining, as it does, both the Frac-
ton and the Salt Lake companies
properties, and lying in the course Of
several of the strongest lodges in the
camp, it is confidently expected that
the present work will soon open up
ore bodies of value and permanency
At depth of ninety feet. the two
compartment shaft encountered the
soft lava Gaping which covered the
Fraction lodges, and at the present
rate of sinking the blue ledge bear
Ing porphyry beneath will soon be
encountered. The Tonopah City is
entirely home company, not a share
of the stock being owned ontside of
this town, and as plenty of capital
has been subscribed for thorough
development of the property it is to
be hoped that the efforts of those in
terested will meet with success.

Lieutenant Peary has returned from
his last artic adventure after about four
years absence. He did not reach the
pole; his dash toward the pole ended at
81 degrees, II minutes, north latitude
343 miles from the pole. The Duke of

utes; Nansen's is 86, degrees IA minutes;
Greeley's or Lockwood's is S3 degrees,
"a minutes. Peary is third in the gen.
eral record, but first of American ex.
plorers. He discovered what has here.
tofore been generally accepted, that
Greenland is an island. At the latitude
of "a degrees, II minutes, he encounter
ed impenetrable ice, broken up in i'm.
mense ridges, impossible for men on
foot, in sledges or in boats. 1t is the
old story over again, of failure. Peary
says, however, that the pole can be
reached and that it will be in the future.
Suppose that it is reached, what will be
the benefits to the human race except
to crafty curiosity. In all probability
there is nothing there except ice such
as he encountered at his farthest north.
