MONTANA.TONOPAH
WILL BREAK RECORD
October Shipments to SmeIter viii
Exceed 800 Tons of Ore.

The Montana Tonopah company is
employing almost every team that
can be obtained in the transportation
of ore from the mine to the railroad
at Sodaville. Up to date and since
the first OF the month, the company
has shipped 1000 seeks of ore, and
before the end of the month a total of
nearly 5000 sacks, approximating 300
tons, will be shipped AS none of the
ore forwarded goes below the 800
mark in value, and much of it goes
far beyond, it can be readily seen
that the receipts from the months
shipment will place handsome sum
of money 10 the reserve fund, and if
reports be true the time il not far
distant when some of this surplus will
be divided among the holders of the
stock.
The mine was never in better shape
than at present; the lodges, as devel-
opment has progressed, have grown
larger and in most instances richer,
and from the ground now opened up
it would be an easy matter to increase
the monthly shipments Of ore tenfold
if the facilities for hoisting were pro-
portionate.
The north crosscut on the 512 level
is now in 4l0 feet and is making at
the rate of four or five feet per day.
The 1856 drift from this level is in
eighty feet and the face shows seven
feet of shipping ore with only one wall
i'll sight. A winze has been started
from this drift and is now down
eighteen feet, showing as good ore as
any found in the mine. The drift run
ming to the North Star from the shaft
is in 440 feet, and the ledge recently
opened up by the north crosscut from
this opening, 100 feet from the shaft,
is showing up splendid body of high
grade ore, much of it carrying free
gold and visible to the eye. The west
5l2 drift is in 1870 feet and discloses a
big ledge of oxidized ore that makes
q rich shipping product. The north
crosscut from the 6l2 station has now
5 reached point 40 feet from the
shaft, and is passing through a
strong, heavily mineralized formation,
indicating the nearness of another
ledge. AS was tated in the BoNAN-
IA several weeks ago, the crosscut
has already passed through several
veins of good ore, and it will only
: have to be run 100 feet more to tap
the big ledge cut at 1876 feet from the
shaft in the level above, and in which
, the winze is now being sunk.
Up to date the Montana Tonopah
people have five distinct bodies of ore
t to work upon and each will be capable
: of earning dividends on a million dol
lar capitalization.

paynlaster.

Charles Kielhofer, superintendent
of the Paymaster mine at Lone Noun
tain, writes to the Tonopah office
that he has taken out enough ore to
make shipment, and he is waiting
now for teams to arrive to transport
the ore to Sodaville. Most of the
ore that will be forwarded has come
from the roo foot level, where rich
shoot was recently encountered,

Diamond Drill.

The diamond drill, which has been
employed in the Mizpah, has been
started on an angular hole from
the 700 foot station, in order to de-
termine the pitch of the lodges cut in
the vertical hole. 1t is expected
that the drill will assist very materi-
ally in the deep work that is contem-
plated by the Tonopah company.
