A Curious Custom.

A curious custom obtains among the
Coorgs, of India. When one of them
kills tiger or panther he is married

is strictly observed, while lavish hospl-
tality is dispensed.

The broadening of the Carson and Col

are all in Goldfield and at Bishop this

The plant to be first installed will be
of 5000 horse power capacity The esti.
mated cost of the whole work will be
about 100000. The transmission line will
run In as direct a line toward Goldfeld
as poss'b' following the general course
OF the Bishop and Goldceld toll road

as can be foretold before the completion
of surveys, the only undecided factor on
which the venture now depends is the

SUPPOSED WASTE
PROVES RICH ORE
Sensational Strike in Sand
Storm Croup-New Ledge
Assays Very High

Two Of the greatest strikes ever made
in the Goldfeld district were reported
this week. one In LOTUS & Davis lease
on the Sands.orm and the other In ths.
Wilson lease on the St. Ives, says the
Tonopah Miner.
In some of its features. aside from the
wonderful values encoun. cred, the strike
on the Sandstorm is the most sensational
of all the remarkable discoveries thar
have occurred in Goldfeld About two
weeks ago j.. P. Lotus and J. r DAVIS
visited the Sandstorm, and in examining
the material on the dump of lease No. 5,
which was abandoned six or e'gnt
months ago. Mr.. Davis discovered that
what was supposed to be waste carried
very high values LOTUS and Davis ut
once took steps to secure lease on the
abandoned ground, obtained it wlthou,
difficulty. and for the past .cr lays lave
been prospecting on the snrfa g anI lr

deep. with the most astonishing rcsulss.
The dump. which was considered
waste" by the former leasers. con- ans
about two hundred tons of rocx whien
when screened will run from SOD 20 $500
a ton. All Of the surface Dirt within an
area of so feet from the shat carries
gold ard 1t Is being screened pr.,naratory
to sack'ng. Three we'll defined edges
have been found within .le limits Of The
lease, all Of which yield phenomenal val
res. One CT the lodges has bee, uncc-r-
cred and shows a width of from smr to
seven feet A careful sampling of this
ledge gave an average of $s40s.sa a ton.
-Four samples taken from various points
gave assays of ssoe4o. y2.5st4o ses54
and N5,S4S.So Numerous paintings made
at the points from which the stmn,es
were taken corroborate these figures.
The original leasers put their shaft down
through large vein. in ignorance of it's
value. and the present leasers are deyel-
oping a big body of ore running from
$500 to $500 a ton. The news OF this
strike has created great excitement in
Goldfeld and is pronounced by the best
Informed mining men to be the most i'm
portant discovery ever made in the dis
trict.
The strike on the st. Ives was made
last Sunday In the old Wilson lease
now owned by o. B. Clover and j. b.
Harrington. In the 5s-foot drift. about
10 feet from the shaft. rich body OF
ore was encountered which has since
been proven to be seven feet wide, be-
tween strong. well-detined walls. The
values run from $500 TO 81 900 and are
found in the rock as we'll as In the
seams. 1t is a most important strike
In its bearing on adjoining properties.
