GOOD RECORD
OF PRODUCTION
A Nevada Property That is Max
inc For Its Owners q Lot
of Money

A statement just received by local
shareholders of the Rocco-Homestake
Company, whose properties are located
at Hamilton, 40 miles from Eureka,
Nevada, shows that during the year
the mines were productive of ore that
netted $46, 925.2S, and while the earn
ings have not equaled those of the two
years preceding, the shrinkage has
been more says the Salt Lake Tribune,
than offset by the results of explana-
tory work. Indeed. the superintend-
ent testifes to the presence of 5000
tens of ore in sight at this time, while
to this he expects to add 1000 tons
before the shipping season opens.
The ores encountered in the ledge
OH the Rocco, says B. L. Smith,
treasurer and assistant secretary of the
company, in his statement, afford an
average of FOL per cent lead and PA
ounces silver, or a gain of Z ounces
silver with depth. In addition to the
natural expenses. the management
during the year expended S2,351 for
the acquisition of additional territory
and passed around one dividend. OF
the total earnings s12,2 36 was paid for
labor, while the railway company
drew upon them for 1851 and the
ore haulers between the mines and
loading station for $6,545.
The activity at Ely and ~neighboring
camps, says Treasurer Smith, will
probably result in the construction of
a railway within a few miles of the
company's mines in the erection of a
smelter, in which event the earnings
will be made to show a material in
crease. To what smelter the ores
shall gothic present season has not
been decided, says the statement, nor
will it be until all ore-buyers have
been permitted to bid on them.

ABOUT OLD
WHITE PINE
An Observer Tells About One of
N~evada's Rich Mineral
Regions

From almost every part of Nevada
at the present time. we hear of ac-
tivity and the reopening of old, pre-
viously abandoned mines. 1t is true
that very few of these have arrived
at the dividend stage as yet; but the
prospects in many instances are most
encouraging. Little or no attention
has yet been paid to the old White
Pine district, although here the Rocco
Homestake has been one of the few
dividend-paying mines of hat State
during the last few years, says the
Pacific Coast Miner.
There has been a great change in
the cities Cfor formerly one was JUS
titled in calling them %cities) of White
Pine county. Hamilton and Treasure
City, each of which had over 10000
population, with fire departments,
banks, express offices and large stores
and are now practically deserted.
There is no money in either place to
bank, nor anything to express. The
mines are shut down and the popula-
ton has drifted away. Yet there are
residents there. who have held on in
spite of everything, hoping for some
resurrection for the camp. Without
capital themselves. they have been
unable to do much more than hog
root their claims. They have been
unable to interest outside capital.
Their faith, however, remains SUI
preme; nor does it seem. unlikely that
a camp which has such bonanzas, and
in which the surface has been barely
scratched, should again produce large
quantities of the rich ore which made
the place famous, and caused the wild
rushes of 1868 and 1869. If we heard
today Of a locality which produced
s1.75O, 900 from $50 tons of ore, many
of those who are now invading Alaska
and TonoDah would be turned that
way. even if it were known at the
lime that there was no more ore in
sight. This pocket was not the only
one or the richest found. Ore, doubt
less stolen from the mine commanded
a ready sale at S. per pound. OF
course in those days silver was $1.29
per ounce: but even at the low price
now obtaining, the rich chlorides
would bring a higher price in the mar
ket than the gold-silver ores of To-
nopah.
Then again there are other re-
sources. which were not developed in
the early days. Base ores in what is
known as the Base range were not
marketable at hat time. nor could
hey be treated on the spot. The
veins. while comparatively small as
far as developed, carry h~igh-grade
lead and copper ores, containing silver
to a considerable value. with no gold,
however.
With the present activity in min
ing. it would seem a pity that a min
ing region with the record and his
torical interest that White Pine pos
sesses, should be entirely neglected.
We believe. however. that this dis
trict will not remain always idle as
it is today, and that some e%nterpris-
ing miners will again attempt to work
some of its prospects. as well as to
search for combinations of previous
ly worked bonanzas.

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP

A Notable Spring Issue.

In the May Delineator is the first
nstallment of the Bois-Brules, a
novelette, by Mary Hartwell Gather
wood, the author of the popular
Lazarre. The beginning of the
story is intensely interesting and
contains promise of highly dramat-
&c events in the later developments
of the plot. The illustrations by
Charles H. Stephens are very strik-
ing. Thyra Varrick, Mrs. Barr s
splendid novel, ends in this num-
Der, and interest is sustained to
the last word, The Ring in the
Moon is an excellent short story by
Philip Varill Mlghles. Juan c. Abel
contributes a finely illustrated ar
ticle on Pinhole Photography.
Walden Fawcett describes the Colo
NAL homes of the Washingtons, and
exterior and interior views of the
old manors are given. A Quest for
Old Pewter, by Frances Roberts,
is of especial interest to collectors,
and the Savarian Dinner, by Miles
will appeal to epicures.
Blanche Bates, the popular actress,
is showed in a number of exclusive
photographs. Miss Laughlin pre-
sents a stimulating chapter on the
of women, and Mrs. Bir-
1ey adds another paper on child
hood. Also, there is matter for the

The children, and of interest to the
household. A charming and up-to-
date display of current fashions is
an important feature.
