Tremendous Strike Made.

Big excitement was created in Reno
yesterday by the arrival of succession
of kilograms from Tonopah announc-
ing a discovery that discounts any
thing previously made in the camp.
Frank Golden's telegram read that
the Acknowledgment had cut ledge
80 feet wide, the average assay from
which is 500 ton.
Another mining man received word
that the discovery was made several
days ago, but was kept quiet. The
ledge was cut in two places and it is
the richest thing yet.
Dick Kirman, of the Bank of Nevada,
received a wire to the effect that the
two strikes in the Acknowledgment
throw forty million dollars worth of
ore in sight.

this part of the state are feeling goods
