GRAPEVINE THELATEST
Wonderful Strike Made on VhstE1es
of Death Valley.

al
What will undoubtedly prove the
strike of the season, outside of the Gold
field district proper, was made about
the 18th of this month by George Cross
and Shorty Harris, representing NJ. NJ.
Detch, Gus Lanka, J. W. McGalliard,
and w. D. Fray of this place. The find
was made five miles west of Amagosa
valley, 65 miles south Of here, and Is
wonderfully rich.
There are large groupings Of ore with
big ledge, the ore occurring in five
stringers in the ledge with foot II rich
tale lying on the foot wall.
They staked out number Of Claims
and returned to Goldfeld with some
samples of ore. Mr.. Fray at once re-
turned 10 Amagosa valley with them,
and securing number of samples sent
Harris back to have them assayed.
The assay ret6rns showed $3.50. .40from
the ledge and sl111.4e from the tale.
Part of it carried high values in bromide
of silver. The paintings from the tale
gave large values, going as nigh Is 49,
600.
They have six claims and millsite
staked out. They are within mile and
a quarter of spring, SO are not handi-
capped by scarcity Of water. Wood is
to be had within nine miles, so there
Will be no lack Of fuel.
A number Of parties have already lett
for the new strike and many more
will go shortly. As soon as the ground
begins to be prospected thoroughly,
there will undoubtedly be number 6f
other rich discoveries made.
A letter received by Mr.. Detch froh
Mr.. Fray says the find is one d the
richest things he has ever seen and from
the surface showing he predicts that Il
will be bonanza. Mr.. McGalllaro
left this morning for the scene to look
over the ground and prospects thor
oughly. If it proves as good as they
have reason to believe they have theS,
fortunes made.

Gold Crater Mines.

Encouraging reports come from the
new camp of Gold Crater, about twenty
miles southeast OF Goldtield. There are
several men at work in the new camp
and from eighty t. one hundred loca-
tions have been made. Though no SEN
sational values are reported the indica-
tions are that some good mines will be
opened up with development. As yet
nothing but location work has been
done. The formation is said to be SINH
lar to that of the Goldheld district.
William Coyle has one of the most
promising claims at Gold Crater, VEN
having been struck which is said to
average $50. There has been no rush to
Gold Crater rs yet, but it Is a camp
which will be heard from in the future.

A Train Tomorrow.

Reports from Tonopah are that a
train is expected to reach there some
time tomorrow, the first since Monday,
August %. Other reports received here
xuere that the track could not be repaired
for several weeks, but this is probably
only one of the many exaggerated stor-
;es which come floating in nearly every
a.v and have no definite origin.
ATbe railroad has had large force OF
men at work ever since the road was
mt ont Of commission ten days ago and
Il is certainly the hope of the isolated
Goldfieldites that communication with
the outside world will be restored to-
morrow as reported.

The Jumbo.

The Jumbo is by far the busiest hiv,
of industry in the lamp on account OF
| the large number of leases being opei-
| ated, the rush to get out every posslbl>
| pound of ore before the close of the lear
| ing period, and, what is most importan
of all, the fact that from nearly all g.
| the many shafts ore'is being hoisted Ii
quantity and of value to exceed any
thing which this country has ever know.
| before.
Along the big Jumbo ledge have bee'
sunk % shaft, and six gasoline hoist.
are in operation-tive OF these within {;
distance of 200 feet on the north end.
On account of the richness OF the or,
being worked and its advanced state 0.
development, the Bowes-Kernick lease
is still the center of interest on the
the Jumbo. From this lease ovel
500 sacks of shipping rock are be-
| ing hoisted daily. Last Monday the
phenomenal record of taking out 81.
sacks in one day was made, and this or,
runs better than 500 ton-making tn
approximate daily product very clos,
to $4,000. There is enough of this
character vi ore blocked out to cover til,
term of the lease-so it will be seen tina
the figures given last week of produc
of nearly a million dollars are not fal
out Of the way.
Returns have been received on the
last shipment of ore, No. 3, from the
Richard & Co. lease No. 8 on the Jumbo.
The shipment consisted of l-2tons CIV
ing returns of $5,2l4 and II tons fol
which So, ,92S.80 was receiyed--a total OF
50, ,l42. 80 for the entire shipment.
Without doubt the Richard & Co.
lease No. 8, on the Jumbo, will soon be
producing the same marvelously ricL
ore that is being taken out on No. 8, the
Bowes- Kernick, which it adjoins. The
crosscut from the 100 level Of the No. 8
shaft is now very close to where the
ledge should be encountered and all in
dications are that it is approaching the
rich ore body which shows so fine on the
100 level Of the Bowes.Kernick. Unless
all signs fail the No. will soon be rival
ing the No. s as producer OF high
grade shipping ore.
On the Curtis & Ridge lease a surface
strike was made yesterday about ~ feet
west of the main working shaft. The
extent of this ore body has not yet been
ascertained but it looks as if another
like that which produced such guam
tity of rich shipping ore several weeks
ago is to be opened up.
On the 2O0 level the Il, lift is being ex-
tended north. shipping ore is being
taken from the drift OF the 80 foot level.
At this lease over 500 lacks of shipping
ore are ready to be sgnt to the smelter

Notes of the Mines.

A strike is reported on the Sunfower,
adjoining the Velvet. The ore is high
class, and it is likely that the rich vein
from the Velvet has been encountered.
Jim Butler and Judge Jackson have
taken lease on the Holdup claim, one
of the Commonwealth group. Four men
were put to work on the lease last Tues
day morning.
The Tin Horn group Of claims in this
district has been sold to j. f. Lutz by
c. D. Preble, the purchase price being
given at $4,000, on which comfort
able initial payment has been made.
j. r. Duffield on Wednesday pur-
ch ,sed from w. w. Booth his one-thi d
intere,t in the Bonanza and Tonopah
Club claims which lie jnst east of the
Sandstone The price paid was $500.
Good prospects are reported from the
lease which Ed Beyis and Jim Clayton
have on the Melva claim, owned by
Graham brothers. Tie leasers are
sinking shaft and expect to strike the
ledge found in the Welch-Cronin ground.
They are now taking out ore which gives
good assays.

| Rich strikes in the Goldiield district
follow SO fast upon each other that the
reporting of new ones read like tales
that have been told. Nevertheless they
continue to be made and the judgment
of well posted mining men is that only
beginning has been made in this won
derful district.
This week two of the greatest import
ance have been mattt, one on the st.
Ives in new ground and the ether on the
Sandstorm, one of the original group OF
the old Grandpa claims, located on the
north end of Columbia mountain and
the original locations in this district.
The st. Ives strike was made on the
eth i'm lease purchased from the own
ers of the Joshua lease by &. W. Rich
ard, George Lewis, j. Douglass, w. :.
Elliott and X. NJ. Jackson. The ground
had not been considered of much value
| but the result of some prospecting by
MIR. Douglass proved differently and he
and his partners bought the ground.
Right on the surface marvellous pam
nings were made, one showing as much
as So in gold. Going little deeper the
ledge was found and trenches have been
run opening it up for about 90 feet.
| The ledge shows about Is inches wide
and is well defined. The rich stuff Is
being sacked and the assay certificates
prove the value of the find, the assays
running from $116.40 to 1885,. 20 per
ton. OF course it is too early to deter
mine the real extent of this discovery
but on the surface it looks like one OF
the bonanza finds of this bonanza dis
trict.
The strike on the Sardstorm was onl'
made public yesterday but it is said thai
the discovery was made several week,
ago. Major Gardner and T. l.. Oddi'
are the lucky owners of the rich lease
having bought out other parties VIII
had worked it faithfully but did not hap
pen to strike the rich stuff.
As near as can be ascertained a foot
4 ledge has been uncovered for distance
| of 20 feet. The ore is full of free gold
pieces being so large as to be easli}
classed as small sized nuggets. An av-
erage sample Of the rock gave returns OF
slO,254. From what is in sight at pres
ent Major Gardner figures on taking out
30 tons of stuff which will run close tc
the assay figures.
These strikes, should the ore hold il
values, are the marvels of this districi
of wonders. They have caused grea
sensation here and it takes strike tia,
is a marvel to cause any excitement IL

Yellow Top.

Superintendent Mcdonald of the Vel
low Top reports that there are good
prospects in the bottom of the shaft.
The development is continuing and it
would not be surprising if a strike was
made at any time.
