concerning rich strike IN the Magno-
liza on Miller mountain, one of the pro-

Smell has several samples of the ore
from the new find and he expressed
himself as being confident that most of

more than 500 a ton, The Judge has
one beautiful specimen OF dark iron

1.-THE CoMsToCK is A MINE"
The wheels Of tho MN Are in Motion
And Crushers Are at work.

'The Comstock Is a mine, and all 1t
now needs is development" SO said
Supt Hickey to Record reporter who
visited the property Thursday, For a
long time the Comstock has been grow

tcally assured, says the Park Record.
Mr. Hickey who has had charge Of the
property for the last few years, and
who has developed It from what might
be called It's beginning, is not the man
to paint rosy pictures Of his mines,
prospects and possibilities, but Is
thorough and practical miner, whose
statements mean much and carry
weight. A considerable quantity OF
high grade ore has been coming from
the mine for some time past and has
accumulated In the ore house TO the
amount Of 300 tons. on Thursday the
wheels of the mill were set in motion
and will nOw continue TO grind away
until this product has all been worked

drifting IN the ore body, but progress Is
rather slow, from the fact that all the
product must be handled by MINDLESS
There rs still considerable water In the
mine so work must be concentrated TO
the one point. The mill which was
erected two years ago, Is a model one In
every respect and has q capacity of 100
tons per day. Of "a hours. THE capacl.
~ Of the mill can be doubled or tripled
very easily" said Mr.. Hickey, "hut this
will not be done until the mine has been
developed to such an extent that IL will
pay for such an expenditure, We are
considerably handicapped here In our
development work, by the large guam
titles OF water we have TO handle the

smaller properties are bound TO come
