ga Noble 0utcast. 4"

Saturday evening, June 27, has been
fixed for the date of the production of
the Home Talent Play, ~ Noble Out
cast to be put ON in Valhalla Hall.
The play is strictly moral, refined and
up-to-date, and if you enjoy a side
splitting laugh, this will be an excel
lent opportunity to exercise your
lungs. The play is not all comedy,
however being on the melodramatic
order, with a few choice boquets of fun
and witticisms scattered promiscously
throughout the four long acts, thus
blending comedy and pathos to an
artistic tint.
See advertisement in another column
of this issue. The young people OF
Gardnerville and vicinity are thinking
of organizing a dramatic club, and if
sufficient financial results are realized
from the present undertaking, they in
tend to organize.

A NEW MINING co.
More Work to be Done on the Carson
River.

Frank @. Everett, of our town, re-
Gently returned from Reno, where he
went to meet a number of monied
men from Buffalo, New York. A new
company was formed, known as the
Carson River Gold Mining and De-
Veloping Company. The purpose for
which the company was formed is to
buy, develop and operate both quartz
and placer mines.
Some of the property already secur-
ed by the company is the west half of
the old Moore ranch, recently pur-
chased by Mr.. Everett from Fritz FL
ges. This land is situated on the east
fork of the Carson river and is known
to be rich in placer gold. There are
also eight placer mining claims in
Alpine county, California, located on
the same river, that prospect well.
Also six placer mining claims above
Horseshoe Bend in Douglas county
that show many colors of gold to each
pan. The company has secured a
right-of-way for a canal some four
miles in length along the Carson river.
Later on they will install an Evans
Elevator and extract the gold by
means of the Everett & McGrath sys
tenn of concentration and chemical
amalgamation. Through their mana
ger this new company has also secured
an option on the Raycraft and Walker
quartz mines in Buffalo Canyon. The
owners were given employment and
development work is being done on
the properties. The last ore brought
to town horned coarse ragged gold
and showed values from $1S to $50 per
ton.
Very little is known in Nevada about
the improved methods of handling
large quantities of low grade placer
gravel. About six years ago gold
dredging on this coast was made a
permanent subject, and that evolution
airy process of gold mining began to
take on considerable proportions.
In California, Colorado and Oregon,
as in Idaho and Montana, dredging for
gold has now made the yield of gold
SO produced, factor of some import
ance in the annual gold output, and
areas that Chinese forsook twenty
years ago are now affording handsome
profits. And now comes the Evans
Hydraulic Elevator, which handles
many times as much material as the
dredge, at less than one-third the cost
per ton, and SO the field is widening.
No form OF gold mining is ona s.uree
basis. With care in the selection of
ground, proper sampling of the whole
area proposed to be worked, and
skillfnl operation of the elevators, the
element of chance is almost wholly
eliminated, the matter sitting down to
a commercial proposition of cost, ex-
penses and net profit.
The above named company must not
be COMPOUNDED with the Nevada Placer
Gold Mining Co., which has been en-
ploying a large force of men on the
river for several weeks. This company
expects its plant, consisting of an
Evans Hydraulic Elevator and 500 feet
of l5-inch pipe, together with two hy-
draulic giants, in about ten days. The
plant is calculated to handle 200 tons
of gravel per day, and it is expected
that it will be in place and ready for
business between the LIST and 10th of
July. The company is now employing
81 men, and work on the canal or ditch
is being pushed rapidly forward and it
will likely be completed about the
18th of June.
