HAD EXCITING TIME.
An Old-Time TOnOpahan Has
Great Experiences.


According to the Walker Lake
Bulletin Alex. Whitman, who has re-
Gently returned to Tonopah, had
some exciting experiences during
his absence. They are described as
follows in the Bulletin:
Alex. Whitman blew in Saturday
from Asia, where he was "bailing''
on the Yang tse- Kiang and Oronoco
railroad. He says the mikado of
Russia and the tar Of Japan had a
scrap in Manehuria the day he left.
The mike Jared the tzar on the jaw
and Alex, slugged the mike in the
lunar plexus. He was arrested and
sentenced to nine years solitary con-
inement. But he gave the turnkey
two nickles and a cigarette, was re.
leased, dived into the roaring Yukon
and swan across, mounted a break,
beam on the main stem and reached
Australia next morning with only 400
plunks in his jeans. Then he took
passage on the wireless telegraph
for Hawthorne via Milpitas."

AFTER THE

Playing FaVOrites.

Playing FavOrites.
The Carson News of last Saturday
jumps on to the Southern Pacific
railroad company for its practices of
discrimination, taking as its text the
statement that the Tonopah Mining
company was being charged a very
low rate for the transportation of
ores, while small shippers were com
PEELED to pay the maximum. The
article is as follows:
AN official of the Tonopah COM
pany is responsible for the asser-
ton that arrangements and SEIZED
ules have been completed whereby,
as soon as the Tonopah railroad is
completed, ores of the Tonopah com
pany will be shipped to Salt Lake
and reduced into bullion for a total
cost OF $ll and a few cents per ton.
"This rate is astonishing, not be-
cause there is any reason why it
should not be general, but because
the railroads have at last granted to
one branch OF the mining industry in
Nevada a chance to live.
"The $1l rate includes transporta-
ton over the Tonopah railroad to
Sodaville; over the Carson and Colo
RADIO to Mound House; over the Vir-
ginia and Truckee to Reno, and
thence over the Southern Pacific to
Salt Lake City, and smelling charges
at the big plant of the American
Smelling and Refining company.
This, too, is on high grade ore. The
small prospector could not secure
this service at the present time for
much less than $40.

Professor Magic tested the ore

A reporter saw Professor Phillips

Rational Theory Which Has Come to Be Ac-
cepted as a Fact
Cdieny Studied with Reference tbe Copper Deposits
Butte, Montana, which Seems to Offer the Best,
Evidence in Support, of this Theory.
[From the Mining and Scientific Press.]

Lie SSCOHudry 0nrlcnmonC OIL
ore deposits by the oxidation of
the ores of the sulphide zone, and
the re-precipitation of the miner
ais under conditions which were
favorable to their redeposition, at
lower levels, has come to be ac-
cepted as a facta but there are
instances wherein it is difficult to
account for the extreme richness
of some of the ore found in the
zone of enrichment. The phe-
nomena have been chiefly studied
with reference to the copper de-
posits at Butte, which appears to
offer the most tangible evidence
to support this really rational
theory. =, 1t was recognized for
many years, before the second
ary enrichment" theory took de-
finate shape, that the iron gossan
of many copper-bearing deposits
had been deprived, to a great ex-
tent, of the copper contents, and
that in many instances, beneath
the iron hat" was found a zone
of rich carbonate and oxide ores
of copper, beneath which again
was a rich sulphide zone, in which
the ores were usually glance"
and similar minerals with high
values in silver or gold, or both.
1t was realize5 or believed that
these rich zones were the result
Of precipitation of ores from the
oxidized surface portions, but the
secondary enrichment theory, as
now generally understood, had
not yet been offered to account
for these occurances. In most
cases where the secondary enrich
ment of copper ores had occurred
the amount of superficial ore
which has been leached has evi-
IDENTIFY been sufficient to furnish
all the copper found in the zone
of enrichment. There are, how
ever, other deposits, wherein the
enrichment must have been pro-
duced by the continued precipita-
ton of solutions from below
within the zone of and during the
period of oxidation, for no other
theory could account for the un-
usual richness of the ores, anc
their amount. Take as an exam
pie the rich chloride silver-leaC
deposits of Fryer Hill, at Lead
vile, Colo. The famous mines o1
that fiat eminence-the Robert E
Lee, Matchless, Little Pittsburg
Annie, Little Chief, Chrysolite
and others within the oxo
died zone, and occurring relative
ly within a few feet of the sur
face and above the horizon o.
, local drainage, and consequent!
of possible secondary enrichmen
t produced millions of dollars. 1
t is nova well known fact, lonl
. since established, that the norma
ore of the lead-silver mines O
that district are low-grade pyrit
Gus ores, containing an abundance
of zinc sulphide and some cope
