what is more, the boom will be based

GROUND BROKEN
FOR MODERN MILL.
A Large Force Put 10 Work Monday
Excayating for The New Mill.

On Monday morning ground was
broken just east of the Midway hoist
for the new l0-stamp mill Of the Ton
opah NJ, NJ and Development CO.
Three OF the pioneer mining men OF
Tonopah broke the first ground.
They were Cal. Brougher, Frank
Golden and A. l.. Hudgens, all being
stockholders IN the company. Twenty
men are employed in excavating a
space 75xl00 feet and the force will
be increased daily. This new enter
prise means new life to Tonopah as
the mill is modern one, and Alex
McCone, who has the contract, guar
antees to run the plant for thirty
days TO the satisfaction of the stock
holders that the ore will be reduced
to certain percentage. The stock
holders are all gentlemen who have
made their fortunes in Tonopah, and
are investing their capital to make
Tonopah the greatest mining center
in the world to-day.

A New Organization.

One of the newest incorpora tions in
the Lone Mountain district is the
Lone Mountain Mining and Develop
ment company, which has secured the
Cornelia, Rarus, Crown Point, Jack
and Iron Quartz claims from J. w.
Douglass, Vincent Perrino and J. F..
Colman, and is being promoted by W.
b. Pittman and c. d. Van Duzer. 1t
is capitalized for 81 900, 600, in shares
of par value of 81 each. Two hun
dred and fifty thousand shares Of
stock have been put in the treasury,
and enough will be sold to put the
company on a strong working basis.
This companys property adjoins the
Cutting and Griffin Utopia group on
the north and through it traverse the
same veins and lodges which on the
Utopia are producing good shipping
ore. The property was examined
some weeks ago by Mr.. Keller, a
mining expert of Salt Lake City, for
a Utah syndicate, who wanted to buy
it, and while his report was very ia.
vorable negotiations fell through be-
cause of an inability to agree on a
purchase price. Mr.. Keifer has since
tried to buy the property from the
incorporators. but they have refused
to let 90. The officers of the new
company are j. w. Douglass, presi-
dent, and w B Pittman, secretary
and treasurer, and they, with c. D.
Van Duzer, ]. F. Colman and Vincent
Perrino, constitute the board of di-
rectors. Congressman Van Duzer is
now in New York in the interest of
the company, and writes that he is
meeting with much success in dispos-
ing of the stock.

will open into larger body. The

estimated that there are over SO, :

that will mill $3.50 per ton. Tonopah

on the curb, but holders will not dis
pose of their valuable stock.

The Ore Strike, Work in Progress

Following recent very important
disclosures in the West End shaft
comes with all the more force a strike
of rich ore in the Ohio Tonopah com
pany shaft on the California claim,
distant a little over 1000 feet north
westerly. 1t demonstrates the exist
ence OF stretch of ledge bearing
ground in the under earth on the
westerly trend OF the Tonopah COM
pany series, and signifies much for
the Tonopah- Fraction company's
territory, enhancing values enor-
mously. The mining world has now
to accept all the ground as practi-
cally proven. Further, mining engi-
neers must recognize the ability of

scribed as follows, is certainly an &C.
currence of great import:

100 feet stringers of quartz have
been encountered, all having the same
course and dip. These streaks are
believed to be feeders to the ledge to
be encountered in the shaft, all car

gold and silver bearing minerals. The

Lone Mountain Development.

No country adjacent to Tonopah is
attracting more attention just now
than Lone Mountain. During the
past week several strikes have oc-
Cured there and the livery stables
have been unable to keep up with
the demand for teams of those who
have wanted to visit the place and
many private rigs have been pressed
into service.
Early in the week prospectors in
the employ of J G. Ford uncovered
a big vein of rich lead and silver ore
a short distance north of the Gen
eral Thomas mine, and day or two
later big ledge was opened up on
the Davis group. Both of these
finds are timely, as their ores will be
necessary adjuucts to the successful
and economical operation of smelters
when they have been erected in Ton
opah. Close to these discoveries and
within ten miles of town are the
groups of the Tonopah- Alaho and
Lone Mountain Tonopah companies,
on which work will be prosecuted
before the end of the month. On
both of these properties considerable
prospecting work has been done and
some very strong lodges of ore, show
ing, gold. silver and lead values in
paying quantities, have been dis
closed. A bond has been given on
the General Thomas mine, and it is
probable that before many weeks a
number of men will be employed
there. This mine in the past pro
duced whole lot of. shipping ore
and there is no reason why it should
not do so again, especially as the
conditions for shipping and treating
are fifty per cent better than they
were decade ago.
