nearly 120 acres in all, and it is situated
within four miles of the greatest gold
mine In the world, the "TonOpah Mizpah.
and in the same mineral district show
ing the same ore cropping and the same
mineral formation as the celebrated Miz-
pah; and there are three veins on this
property from two to six feet wide, car
rying values from $40 TO $175 per ton on
the surface, which is showing only
equaled in this district by the one great
Mizpah mine part of which was sold on
a basis of $4,000, 900 and stock advanced
from 80 cents to $40 per share in less
than one year.
No person can realize how hard ii is
for a prOspectOr to secure money to de-
velop a property, no matter how rich it
may be unless he has tried. Proof of this
difficulty encountered by prospectors is
the fact that some of the most valuable
properties have been considered worth
less for years until they pass into the
hands of capitalists. like the present
owners of the great MiZpah. and they be-
gin to yield up millions in gold. Then
everybody is ready and willing to help
when help is no longer needed.
Big cash offers have been refused for
this property for the reason that il only
requires machinery and development. to
make it worth a million dollars more
than the offers received. and the owners
decided to give part of this benefit to. the
general public by Offering an opportunity
to secure a small interest in a legitimate
mine in the great TonOpah district which
would be safe investment for the saw
ings of those of small means.

The World Never Before
Heard of Such a Rich
District.

The new railroad just completed. into
the great Tonopah district has already
proved it's inability TO handle more than
small fraction OF the fabulous business
awaiting it.
The old dumps of the Mizpah mine are
furnishing more tons of ore every day
than the railroad can possibly handle,
and this dump will continue to glut the
capacity of the road for over two years
without the company taking another
bucket of ore from the mine. These
dumps are being shipped to Salt Lake
City, where they are said to be netting
the company over 500 to the ton, above
all mining, freight and treatment
charges.
The excitement incident to the new
strikes being made in this district is
causing such a rush of miners into TonO-
pah that the passenger facilities of the
railroad are entirely Inadequate every
train being crowded to its capacity.
Horses and all manner of conveyances
are at a premium.
Now is the time to interest yourselves
in this district if you wish to reap the
benefits of it's development.

WILL NEVER COMPROMISE.
Russians Say japanese Must Be Driven
Out OF Asiatic Continent.


ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 8.-Reply-
ing to the statement of Count Okuma,
leader of the progressive party that
the war with Russia would be long but
that Japan would win in the end, the
Novoe Vremya to-day declares that
the idea of d possible compromise with
Japan has been abandoned and that
the war must be prosecuted by Russia
in such a way that there can be no
possibility of Japans renewing the
struggle. Europe for thirty years was
under the menace Of revenge for AL
SAGE.
IF we conclude peace. with Japan
all our efforts in the Far East, will be
yalueless and we shall, have to- spend
enormous sums to keep up our arma-
ment there. The Japanese, once for
ali, must be driven out of the Asiatic
continent"
1t is now accepted here that the
reported naval fight off Port iiArthur
was purely imaginary. The naval ex-
perts of the newspapers dwell on the
difficulties which the Port Arthur
squadron must experience in break
ing after the disastrous sortie of Au-
gust 10. The general opinion is that
the squadron could not venture out
unless something had happened to the
. Japanese warships, Of which there is
10 knowledge here.
In any case the Russian ships could
rot go to the neutral port of Chefoo.
but must head for Vladivostok. If the
Baltic fleet was approaching, however,
the whole situation would be different.

TOXIC, Oct S.-The imperial
headquarters tonight published a
series of extended reports covering
the operations against Port Arthur
until the end of July. The reports
cover the operations between the bat
tie OF Nanshan May 26 and the actual
investment Of Port Arthur proper,
which began July &c.. The reports are
chiefly interesting as showing that the
Russians desperately resisted the jap
anese advance southwark along the
peninsula Indeed. the Russians as
sumed the aggressive during July and
attempted TO drive the Japanese back
and retake Dalny. The Russians
erected an elaborate series of forti-
fications in the hills skirting the east
ern coast and also along the railway,
by means of which they delayed the
actual investment of Port Arthur two
full months.
Many desperate encounters marked
the slow advance of the Japanese
southwark early in June. The Rus
slams erected defense works east of
Shihshankow. On June 13 the Rus
slams assumed the aggressive, but they
were repulsed. The Russians then
erected defenses at Soutaikou. The
Japanese began the general advance
June 26. After severe fighting they
succeeded in occupying a line from
Antzu Mountain on the right to Sout-
ing Mountain on the left. On July 3
the Russians began a general attack.
The fighting, which continued until
the night of July 5, included desperate
night attacks, the men frequently
closing hand to hand and using
bayonets. Russian destroyers and gun
boats came from Lungwangtao and
shelled the Japanese. The Russians
were finally beaten back.
The Russians next fortified Antzu
Pass. The japanese mounted at
Langnichia twelve guns captured at
Naushan and also naval tweIve-peund-.
ers west Of Chuantzunou. Desultory
fighting succeeded until July 26, when
the japanese began a second general
attack against Soutaikou and Antzu
Pass. All three of the japanese
columns engaged in the desperate
fighting which ragged until July 81.
On the morning of July 2S the Jap
anese renewed the battle The Rus
sian line broke and began to retreat.
Practically the entire Port Arthur
garrison. with sixty guns, participated
in this engagement. The Russian
losses were 1000. The Russians re-
tired inside the last line of their de-
fense. The Japanese spent July %
disposing their forces and supplying
them with ammunition. At dawn
July 80 the japanese attacked the
Russian forts. The guns of the Rus
Sian fortress were used for the first
time I'm this attack. The Japanese ad-
vanced within two and four miles Of
