No X. of p. sanitarium at the Springs.


At the session Of the supreme lodge
Of Knights Of Pythias held In San
Francisco the proposition to erect a
sanitarium at Hot Springs, Ark for
Sick and disabled knights was defeated
and the report Of the special investi'
eating committee adopted at the last
session was disregarded. II was the
voice OF the supreme lodge that II has
no right under its constitution to tax
the members Of the order for such a
purpose. The sanitarium project has
been before the supreme lodge for
twelve years, but at each previous SEES
sion It was referred to committees
until two years ago. when special
committee was appointed to make a
final report on the matter. The gov
eminent offered to give lot OF FIVE
acres OF land TO the Pythians for a
period Of 90 years for the purpose Of
building the sanitarium. It was pro.
posed to erect buildings at a cost OF
3250,0O0, the expense to be borne by a
per capita tax Of 10 cents on each mem.

RIVALS TONOPAH.
Discovery Twelve Miles North Of That Camp
Makes Marvellous Showing.

The Tonopah Bonanza says the new
discovery recently made near that
camp:
Last December a veteran prospector,
Ned Clark, after whom the Clark shaft
on the Mizpah was named, started out
with pick and shovel to prospect the
country north of Tonopah, returning
day after day to camp footsore and
At last, after walking each day ten
miles out and ten miles back to camp,
he managed to work about an hour
each day on a prospect that will soon
add hundreds of millions of dollars to
Nevadas S wealth.
This new discovery is situated about
twelve miles northeast of Tonopah on
the same mineral belt as the mines of
this rich district. The ledge, or lode,
can be distinctly traced for 5000 feet
being covered in places with only a
wash deposit of a few inches. The sec
ton of the late find is well-definied
mineral country. pay float can be
found in every gulch and on every hill
side. Along the entire ledge groupings
shipping ore is encountered every
where.
On the Horn Silver claim, owned by
l.. o. Ray, out of the twenty-five as
says taken along the groupings of his
claim the lowest return was $50 in gold
and silver and the highest was 1855 20.
The ore carries from 16 to 60 per cent
lead, which value is not added to the
above returns.
The ore is carbonate, and it is the
belief of many that it will emerge into
rich galena as depth is attained A
shaft on Monday had reached the depth
of twelve feet and the ledge had wi
dened out from a foot to three feet,
with ore in the bottom assaying $266
silver and $23 gold per ton. This show
ing, with the ledge widened, has caus-
ed our people to flock to the new dis
| trict and almost deserting our camp,
each endeavoring to secure lease and
many have been lucky in doing so.

Glasgow & Western.

Says the Salt Lake Tribune: Otto
Stallman, general manager of the Glas-
gov q Western Exploration Company s
mines, mills and smelter in White
Pine and Humboldt counties. New, has
returned from the west and with con-
ditions generally is very much pleas
ed. The winter campaign upon the
mines has resulted in the disclosure of
large ore bodies at depths hitherto un-
explored in the Adelaide, while as graf
flying results have been achieved at
the others. The outlook for a steady
run at the various plants during the
year is an extremely favorable one at
this time, the smelter to be put in COM
mission as soon as the thaw begins and
the streams begin to provide the neces-
sary water.
