\ Young Lady Looping the Gap in
An Automobile.
The most desperate and thrilling
act ever witnessed is the fearful au-
tomobile ride of the young French
lady, Mile. de Tiers. The exploit is
without precedent, stands alone and
can be compared to nothing except
perhaps. looping the gap, but in
stead of a bicycle the young, pretty
and venturesome lady makes the
loop and gap in an automobile of so

When this daring act was first

Naturally the first consideration to the

holdings Of the company ts
The property of the searchlight Treas
urer Gold Mining. company is right in sthf
heart of the great mineral producing
belt of Searchlght New. The property
is loacted on the extensions and imme-
diately. adjoining the great wealth-bear-
ing veins of the Duplex company's mines
and only a few hundred feet from the
Quartette, Good Hope and Cyrus Noble
properties, all of which are well known
to the public as big producers and max
ing their stockholders wealthy. In fact,
SO near the very center of this great dis
trict is the property that portion Of
the town of Searchlight Is on the COM
pany's claims, including some of the
large stores that are now becoming i'm
portant factors in distributing supplies
for this rapidly growing district.
The directors purchased the property
outright and have shown their confidence
in its merit by having the deed pass to
the CO ipany and they accept the stock
of the company in payment therefor, thus
starting the company out with clear
property, clear title, no debts, no compli-
cations; so the company can begin its
shaft with the first dollar received from
sale of stock The names of the directors
are sufficient guarantee for the able, hon.
est and careful manner in which the de-
velopment of the property will be made.

DUPLEX DISCOVERY

The Duplex company has piece Of
ground called the Fraction, which Hes
between the New Years Gift and the
Searchlight. Several hundred feet east
of where the former management ran
some surface slopes Manager Cotton re-
Gently put a man to work sinking on a
small cropping that assayed about SO a
ton. At a depth of eight feet the bot
tom of the shaft is all ore, with no sign
of either wall, and an average sample
returned s24.l5. The remarkable thing
about the discovery Is the odd character
of the ore II resembles very closely a
lead carbonate ore, but carries no values
other than gold The vein Is soft and
crumbly and very easily worked AL
though on the surface the values are all
gold there is no doubt but what with
depth they will turn base. In both the
parallel properties considerable lead, sill
yer and copper is found below the 100
foot levels.
The seven claims that comprise the
Duplex group are to be patented at once.
Deputy United States Surveyor I. l..
Henderson will do the work.

Los Angeles what Cripple Creek Is to
Denver" This declaration was made re-
Gently by o. B. Steen, a well-known min
Ing engineer.
ut is right in Los Angeles territory,
close to home' he continued, with no
shadow of a rival to dispute this city's
two millions or more a month, and It's
more to Denver. l venture the prediction
that within five years the Searchlight dis
trict will be producing this, and that means
millions for Los Angeles, for IL will come
here for the purchase OF supplies in the
way of machinery, provisions, material for
buildings and every line of business The
miners will come here to spend their
money, the mine owners will invest divi-
dends here or deposit their holdings In
the banks, so that by far the greater part
of what is taken from the ground around
Searchlight will find it's way right to
Los Angeles. Your people should realize
this and encourage development to the
limit.
There is a piece of territory in the
southeastern corner of Nevada roughly
shaped in the form Of a triangle, with the
Colorado river as its eastern line and
base, the acknowledgements state line as
the southwestern side and the thirty
sixth parallel as the other, in which there
is found a mineral belt that is hard to
surpass anywhere. l call II the golden
Triangle and 1t is indeed. worthy of
the name. In its limits are about eighty
four square miles, more than half Of
which are known to be mineralized."

Development is going on on the Saz-
erac group. owned by Carl Anderson and
A. M. Jones OF Los Angeles and #. ID.

is located at Dupont. Thirty-two feet of
work has been done on a drift at the
100 foot level during which the vein has
widened from one to three feet The ore

Quartette. and Is improving all the time.
The famous Duplex property continues
TO hold UP its great record. on the 800

To raise extra funds for the purpose
of constructing hoists, mills and purchas-
ing necessary machinery for operating
the mine the company is selling a small
block of stock at the price of twenty
cents per share on very liberal terms
Mr.. Hall, who is fiscal agent at 518
Stimson building, said in reference to
this that ANY one wishing to purchase
shares at this figure would have to act
quickly about 1t, because when the Of
fetal reports begin to come in everybody
would want stock"
The officers of the company are the
following well-known citizens: Earl
Rogers, president; ]. N. Hall, vice presi-
dent; r. s. Quarter secretary, and with
Messrs. Luther @. Brown and John
Brink make up the directorate.

SEARCHLIGHT NOTES

Mr.. Fred Cotton, the owner Of the
Duplex and Good Hope properties, was
prospecting on hill Just east of the shaft
of the Good Hope mine when he found
the richest piece of float ever found in
that district and he took $55,000 in gold
out of this one rock.
There is little story In connection
with the Gavaland claim that is inter-
esting. Mr.. Fred Cotton was the original
owner of this claim: he was sure that
there was rich ledge of gold under
ground and lost no time in filing his 1oca-
tion notices. He thought Of naming his
claim after the Gavaland mine in San
Diego county Of this state. Just as he
was writing the name hawk flew over
his tent No one had ever seen hawk
there before that time and none has been
seen since. The word 'Gavaland," being
interpreted into English, means "hawk. .
therefore Mr.. Cotton thought the name
Gavaland a very appropriate one.
The Good Hope property was a paying
one at a depth of few feet and in the
last two and one-half years the operators
have taken out $317, in gold and have
900 more blocked out for future use.
The Ice Plant at Searchlight is in full
operation.
A Los Angeles gold mining company has
placed an order in this city for 15-
horsepower gasoline hoisting engine and
several cars of lumber and other supplies
to be shipped at once to Searchlight for
installation at its mines. A contract for
the work has been let to T. d. Tourney
of this city. The company now has fif-
teen claims in the heart Of Searchlight.
A survey is now being made preparatory
to obtaining patent. The main shaft is
down 1855 feet, and sinking is to be re-
.sumed. This property. together with the
Cyrus Noble and Santa Fe groups, which

X-RAY HAS LOTS OF GOOD ORE

Most encouraging results are being had
from the development work now in prog
ress on the X-Ray group Of claims. This
property marks the extreme north end
of the local mineral belt and is owned
by F. ]. Spare and others. At a depth
of So feet the shaft is all in ore OF fair
valuation and which resembles very
closely that found on the lowest level
of the Pompeii, the parallel property to
the south. A strong company is being or
ganized to work the property on large
scale.
This showing on the x-Ray considered
in conjunction with that on the Cleopa-
ira, the group which lies farthest to the
south, demonstrates the thorough and
complete naturalization of the local belt.
The distance between the two properties
is four and fraction miles. To the north
of the X-Ray comes the big wash inter-
vening between Searchlight and Eldorado
canyon, while to the south of the Gle
opatra is the Ibex wash. Whether or not
hidden veins lie buried beyond these sem
tinel mines remains for some venture
some operator to ascertain. but between

SEARCHLIGHT MINE

One of the most important enterprises
now about completed in the Searchllght
district is the unwatering of the Search
light mine of the Duplex, company
which had been shut down for the past
eighteen months and had become filled
with water on the lower level. There
We're 1880 feet of workings affected on the
bottom level and the water rose ninety
five feet in the shaft.
Now the unwatering is about finished
only two feet remaining In the shaft
after six months of continuous milling,
which has used up the water. It is the
intention now to Immediately explore the
fourteen-foot vein, which was split into
In the long north cross-cut. This, so far
has carried very small values, but from
what the work done in the higher levels
has revealed. 1t is thought likely that an
excellent shoot of milling ore will be
opened by drifting.
The latest reports say that another
rich pocket was opened last week on the
first level that produces ore even exceed
ing the value Of that found some weeks
ago, which ran $13,S00. The ore is speci-
men rock and very pretty, with wiry gold
shot all through the rock.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-08-13
SEARCHLIGHT M. g. M. co.
STRIKES GOOD ORE BODY

The Searchlight M. & M. company
has opened up new ore body in the west
face of the 250 level. The shoot was en-
countered 100 feet from the shaft and
has improved In values for 80 feet to the
present face. Four feet of ore are shown
in the face, and drill holes toward the
hanging show at least 80 inches more
ore in that direction. The rock horns
from $40 to $40, and is well mineralized
sugar-quartz porphyry, of the same
character as the pay ore taken from this
mine and milled last spring, from stope
60 feet east Of the new discovery on the
asme level.
The excavation for the mortar bed Is
will be sunk to the $50 as rapidly as pos
sible, in order that the old shoot and
the new ore body may be stopped from
that level, and to develop water for
milling purposes. Water was first en-
countered on Sunday and is coming in so
rapidly that pump will be necessary II
the flow continues to increase at the
present rate.
The excavation for the mortar bed is
finished and the work of erecting the
mill, which is on the ground, will be
pushed. The bunkhouse will be finished
in a few days, this completing the neces-
sary buildings for force Of twenty-five
men,

Local Capital Placed In searehllght
Developments of interest to mining
men of Los Angeles continue at Search
light, New, and the most promising
activity prevails In all the mines Of the
district The latest matter of interest 20
local people Interested at Searchlight Is
the formation Of the Gold Coin Mining
company under the laws of Nevada for
the purpose of operating the Sazerac and
Vinona groups of claims at Dupont.
These groups were formerly owned by
local investors. Carl Anderson of this
city will be general manager. The Of
ficers OF the company are: f. d. How
ellis, Jr., president; A. M. Jones and G.
III. Harmstadt, vice president: Il. j..
Arrils, secretary and treasurer. The
company is capitalized at $1,00O000, of
which amount 100000 shares have been
placed aside as treasury stock. The prop
erty was bonded a short time ago to
Messrs. Anderson and Jones by Mr..
Harmstadt, but the new company takes
over this bond and operations now under
way will continue uninterruptedly.
Ten claims are comprised In these two
groups, which are located in the heart
of the rich Dupont section, about twelve
miles from Searchlight and four miles
from the Colorado river. Aside from
minor development work there is a shaft
1876 feet deep on the Sazerac and q 100
foot tunnel on the Peachbloom. Both are
being worked under contracts which call

EXCEPTIONAL EMPIRE ORE

Down at the Empire camp there Is an
old abandoned shaft half way up the
mountain side, from which years ago
Johnny Flynn, the original locator Of the
property, extracted much of the rich ore
which he ran through his crude arastra.
Directly above this shaft there is a mon
ster cropping, and in the center Of this
Mr.. e. B. Scott had a single shot fired.
This shot broke and loosened many tons
of ore. And such ore! Free gold showing
in almost every piese, and all Of 1t horn
ing long yellow strings In the pan. 1t Is
estimated that the shot broke sufficient
ore for very creditable mill run.
Further up the mountain side the winze
shaft in the main tunnel is down 70 feet.
The ore at this depth is mostly Of a
sulphide nature. Numerous samples have
