GREAT DISCOVERY
AT BULLFROG NINE
BHHfrOg Mining Company Strikes $4,000 Ore--
Other Important Discoveries.

The Bullfrog district is rapidly
coming to the front with phenomenal
values, the latest news from there
equaling some of the greatest discov-
cries at Goldheld. This last develop
ment is on the Ladd Mountain group
of the Bullfrog mining company where
it was discovered that the loose sur.
face dirt alongside the ledge carried
gold in great quantities DR.. Benson
who is experimenting the work at
once sent man in with a sack of
this dirt weighing fully 100 pounds,
and H. H. Clark IN the presence of
prominent Tonopah mining men made
several paintings of it taken promis-
cuousl ly from the sack. All of these
gave wonderful results in coarse gold
and Malcolm l.. Macdonald estimated
them to represent value of $5, 900
per ton. This, like the paintings OBJ
tanned alongside the Jumbo vein, is
from loose surface dirt mixed with
roots and pieces of tale, and more
over, letter received from Dr.
Benson last night states that since
sending this sack in he has found dirt
far richer than this and a shipment
Of this will ha madp shorflv II II

company's properties are opening up
