Remarkable Hosting.

able work has been done in the hoist
ing line, establishing a wonderful rec
ord in the way OF capacity for hoist
ing from a single shaft. The hosting
engine consists OF a pair OF vertical,
tandem, compound, condensing engines,
operating with l20 pounds of steam,
hosting frcm the 1,2o0-foot level, max
ing a total lift of about 1860 feet. Two
automatic dumping siiips, five by three
and six feet desp. are used. each weigh
ing 400 pounds and holding $500
pounds of rock. The skip is loaded at
the bottom by tipples worked from the
chute by Il hand lever, and the rapidity
of handling is shown by the fact that
as high as n~iaety-two trips have been
made in one hour. On one occasion
during a single shift of eleven hours
and forty-three minutes, the weight of
rock heistel was 1865 tons. or at the
rate OF {, 900 tons in twenty-iour hours.
This record was broken by the same
plant Il year on two later by hosting
$500 tons in twelve hours. and on May

four hours. OF course this is not their
regular everyday working, but spe-
cial running TO show what can be done.
The skips are loaded at the bottom so
quickly tina the engineer sometimes re-
ceives the signal to hoist before he has
completely stopped the engine.

Thunder Mountain Prices.

Travel by team into and out of the
Thunder mountain country has been
estopped by the heavy falls of snow.
AS a result the prices of edibles has
gone up at an alarming and pocket
breaking rate. The following list of
prices win give an idea of the cost of
living at the present time: Flour is
IA cents per pound; bacon, 80 cents;
sugar, 20 cents; butter, IS cents;
fresh beef, 25 cents; oatmeal, Is
cents; potatoes, s and 10 cents each;
salt, 10 cents; coal oil, 81. 80 a gallon;
syrup, S1.50 per half gallon; and
other n~ecessaries equally high.

1t is announced that the Southern

improvements in the Carson and

New rolling stock has been ordered
and a large force of men will be put
to work on the road bed, making it
possible to force the gait to a trot on
level stretches. A Pullman car will
also be put or to u from Mound
House to Tonopah, making the trip

Sentence

The board of pardons today unan-
imously voted to commute the SEN
tance Of Goethe Seegmiller to impris-
onment for life. He is the Lincoln
county Indian who served his county
by removing one Bill Williams from
the land of the living, and who had
no better sense than to plead guilty,
He was sentenced to be hanged on
the 28th of this mouth. He is but
sixteen years old and his apparent
innocence excited the pity and com
passion of all who came in contact
with him. Public sentiment was so
strong in favor of tempering the
punishment, that there was little if
any doubt he would not be executed,
In fact it is something of a surprise
that the term was not made for a
few years instead of life, but perhaps
the board proposes to administer its
charity and compassion in homeo-
pathic doses. Carson News.

Salt Lake Road,

The rails have been laid nearly to
the Herman ranch. Work in the big
cut has been stopped on account of
the breakage in the steam shovel and
a temporary track built around. The
grade is rapidly nearing completion
as far down as Noapa and it is ex-
pected that the rails will be laid that
far by May 1st. Some Of the con
tractors are figuring on contracts
beyond Moapa, and It is probable a
number will move along in a short
time. The reports from the other
end of the road are to the effect that
good progress is being made. DE

The last report of the superintend-

the northeast drift following the ore

The total extraction of ore for the

There was shipped eight railroad

with his expert, Professor Arthur

On the way out from the Tonopah-
Belcher mine the party stopped over

their trip Mr.. Lathrap said:
"There is no denying the fact that
the party was simply astounded at
the world of ore and the generally
excellent condition in which the va
rious properties were found. Time
was too limited to visit other proper
ties, but enough was seen to convince
the most skeptical that when the
new railroad is completed the world
is going to get an idea of the import
ance of that camp which it has never
had before.
Regarding the railroad, work
upon which was commenced on the

agreed to have completed May 10th,

reason to believe that it will be fin

the contractors intend to work from

rapid Roadway ought to be made.
II was told also that the intention
was to commence hauling ore for
producers as soon as the first few
miles of road was finished. In that
way the wagon haul will be gradually
reduced and the mine owner will be
reaching the benefit possibly within
a month";
OF conditions at the Tonopah.
Belcher, Mr.. Lathrap said they could
hardly be better for the amount of
work done. The last drift on the $50
foot level is now out in shipping ore
for a distance of 175 feet. Two car
loads of ore are now sacked and
ready for shipment and there are
probably ten cars more available.
Extraction is being s%ubordinated to
development at the present time, as
it will be only a few weeks till the
new railroad will make it possible for
the company to deliver its ore on the
cars at the end of an eight-mile
wagon haul. Salt Lake Herald.
