STRiME NEAR DULIEROG.
Another Rich Find Reported rron,
That Section.

Another strike is reported from til,
Bullfrog section. having been made a
few days ago by Joe Stockham, formerly
foreman on the Brougher lease at Ton
opah
The strike was made about three miles
east of the Bullfrog claims. Mr.. Stock
ham came in from there Tuesday with
samples from the groupings which gave
an assay of $40, the value including s
ounces of silver. He is much elated
and believes he has bonanza property.
Frank Wilson who is in from the Bull
frog district, where he has number OF
locations. says the showing on the claims
where Cross and Harris made the origi-
nal strike has improved very much with
even the small amount of work which
has been done. The ledge has been
found in place under the country rock
at point quite distance from where
the original strike was made, indicating
that the ledge continues at least the full
length Of the claims. The ledge is a
perfect contact, thus having all the in
dicat'ons of permanence.
Mr.. Wilson says the Rullfrog is one
of the biggest and richest propositions
he ever saw.

THE RUSH CONTINUES.
Mere People Co,nins in Than Can Be
Accommodated.

Travel continues so great that an ex-
ira stage is run daily each way by the
O'Keefe line and they come in every
trip loaded tn thr guards Niih paSsen-
gers. Beside this all possible convey
ances are beng used o bring III from
Tonopah the people who are arriving
.,,c-c on every train.
The influx 10 50 ga; IL. he accom-
modations of the town are being taxed
to the utmost, especially i'll the matter
of lodgings Most Of the newcomers
have to avail themselves OF tents which
are being pitched on every available
piece of ground on the outskirts OF town.
The sale of lots in the various additions
continues unabated. The town Is
spreading t" the north and east very
rapidly and at the present rat' OF growth
the prediction that Goldfield and CO.
lumbia will eventually become one town
is within sight.
The Miners Union this week sent
out hundreds Of circulars warming min
ers and millinen to stay away from Gold
field at present. The nilux of laboring
men has been so great that there Is now
more here than can secure employment.
This warning should be heeded as the
population of Gol,lfeld is now growing
faster than the accommodations are in
creasing. At present it is not camp
for men without money, who come here
with the idea of securing employment
at days wages.

GOLD CRATER IS RICH.
Latest Strike Causes New Rush to
the Camp.

Another bonanza strike has been made
near Goldiield, this time in the Gold
Crater district, twenty-six miles east
and slightly south of here. Sanders &
Inman are the lucky owners this time.
Saturday Mr.. Inman sent in some as
say samples to Mr.. Sanders, who took
them up to Lanka & McGalliard and as
result received an assay certificate
showing the r OK to go 1854 ber ton
1924 gold.
As soon as a rumor got out a rush
started for the new camp, and Mr.. Sam
ders received handsome offer for his
half interest.
A townsite has been laid out and it is
expected that Gold Crater will become
very lively camp and soon be on the
list of ore shippers.
The vein is large and easily traced and
the pay streak is about Is inches wide
Among those who are heavily inter-
ested in Gold Crater are Elliott, Will
liams & Colburn who are interested in
% claims lying in close proximity t. the
Hub, the claim owned by Sanders &
Inman, on which the original strike
was made. They are also interested in
the townsite company with Mr.. Cassin
and others and quite brisk sale Of
town lots has already set in.
Messrs. Curtis and Ridge. owners of
one of the rich Jumbo leases, also have
a number of claims at Gold Crater
They have sent out supplies and are pre-
pairing to put up a hoist without delay.
Wood is about six miles distant from
The camp, and while water is none to-
plentiful, it can easily be developed.

CLEAN UP THE ALLEYS.
Epidemic Threatens Unless This is
Done Soon.

The alleys and back streets Of Gold
field are becoming filthy in the extreme
and prompt and thorough cleaning up
is needed if the health of the town is to
be maintained. This is matter which
cannot be given too serious attention.
Every property owner should see to it
that debris is not allowed to accumulate
on his premises and steps should at once
be taken to give the town thorough
renovating.
Unless something is done in this di-
rection an epidemic and harvest Of death
is threatened. Whoever has authority
in this direction should see to it that the
renovation is started at once and if such
authority is not vested in the officers
the matter should be taken up by the
citizens generally.
The health of Goldfeld is excellent at
present but cannot continue unless the
menace of filth and debris which is fast
accumulating is removed. Goldiield
cannot afford to pass through the ex-
perience of the first winter in Tonopah,
when an epidemic broke out which re-
suited in many deaths before it could be
checked.
Prevention is better than cure in this
matter and the danger can be averted if
proper steps are taken in time.
