Wooden Bridge.


AS | have had lot of spare
time on my hands this winter
have devoted it to fishing, hunting
and trapping along the Wooden
Bridge. Having rented an old
sawmill shanty down at the Blue
Hole have had pretty fair luck
captured one skunk, ,one chipmunk
and one screech owl. So, the 9th
er day when the freshet came |
thought ] would look at mytraps.
| started up the creek, and when |
got as far as Bert Browns | stop
ped to take a rest, and Bert took
me to his cellar, where was plenty
of good apples but no hard cider;
but he showed me what he called
slinkey weed and pointed toward
the vinegar barrel. He said it had
great effect on human nature.
Now, wishing to lay in my sup
ply of groceries for the winter, |
thought | would go to Clear
Ridge, as 1 had noticed in the
'News" that they had Christ
mas entertainment that was nice
failure, so thought maybe they
had some goods on hand they
might sell cheap. So, ! started,
and when | got on the Ridge | no.
ticed that w. II. Fields was put
ting up "T' to his house, so |
stopped and chatted with him
awhile. | think he must be going
to get married. When | got to
town / saw that A. W. Brown had
built a new house to replace the
one burnt. l stopped at the hotel
DeFields for supper, and then
stopped in at the store, where
found the usual number of boys,
and listened to them. They were
guying Bert Winegardner about
taking his sister to school IN cut
ter. Now, there was nothing
wrong about that; for as Bert was
coming home there was young
lady standing by the wayside an6
he, thinking perhaps that she want
ed to go 10 town, stopped his
horse, when she asked him to fetch
his best girl and come to "pig
shave" Now, Bert didn't know
what she wanted, and as he is post
master he telephoned to the Post
master General, who told him il
was Christmas and that this was
only turkey roast. Then Bert
accepted.
There was what might have
been tragedy in the town on Sat
urday night. A young man want
ed horse to go to see his bes
girl, but papa refused him; so, tax
ing poll-axe, he swore he'd shoe
himself
As my communication is getting
too long, | must close. You viii

DON'T WAIT roo LONG

As the year draws to it's close, the
following, which is from an authorita-
tive source, will be Of interest to the
many engaged in mining and prospecting
here, who are not thoroughly familiar
with the law governing the annual as
sessment required to hold mining
ground. Assessment work may be corr
menced at the last moment of the end
of the year, and if continued until
800 worth has been performed this
work may be charged to the year 1906,
the year 1905 having had no represents
ton. This is on the theory that the
locator title is good, whether he doas
any assessment work or not, until an
other party enters his claim and re-
locates it for failure of the first party
to perform the work required by Law.
The claim may be held for years with
out performing this work, but always
at the risk of the original locator, for
at any time he il liable to lose his
claim bv forfeiture for non-perform-
ance of the ass sssment work.

MAYFLowER

The Mayfiower continues to be an
attractive and interesting subject for
conversation among mining men. Many
have gone to Crystal springs since the
reported strike a week ago in the May
flower, and all are impressed with the
splendid showing thus far made in the
property, which is already in the ranks
of the "big ones'' of Bullfrog.
The shaft of the Mayfiower on We'd
nesday was down 90 feet. At this depth
the vein, which seems to be in the
shape of an inverted V, has widened
from z to 10 feet. The value of the ore
has increased slightly. An extra force
of men will at once be put to work
timbering the collar of the shaft, and
the management is making arrange
ments to sink another 40 feet to the
1oo-foot level, when ore will be blown
out systematically. .
Manager Lindsay was busy all day
Tuesday in the erection of a bunk
house, blacksmith shop, etc. Extra men
will be crowded on as fast as places
can be found for them to advantage
ously work.
BY the 18th of January, if the ore
holds out to the 1O0-foot level, the
Mayfower company will seriously con-
slider the ~rection of a 3 or 5-stamp mill
at Crystal springs, a distance of q little
over one mile from the mine.
Speaking about the Mayfower, Mr..
Lester, who is superintendent of the
Eclipse properties and who has been
mining all his life, said:
cit looks much the same to me as
did the Hobo-the manner in which
values are coming in and the increasing
volume of ore; only that in the May
flower they have struck their ore at \
40-foot depth, whereas in the Hobo We
had it at 16 feet. At present the May
fowr has the identical appearance Of
the Hobo just before we dropped into
the rich ore shoot.
"The Maylower has the vein opened
on the surface, showing the great
length of the shoot. The prominence
and contiguity Of the foot wall gives
every indication Of a strong, well-de-
fned vein. It's really a big vein al
ready, but it's going to be very much
greater.
eve PANIED everything in sight and
got nothing but good results. III be
badly mistaken if the May1ower don't
rank with the foremost mines Of the
camp.
"The Crystal springs section of Bull
frog looks good to me, and it has many
other unprospected contacts that look
just as good as that of the Maylower.

THE BULLFROG T
The Southern Country Still Forging Ahead According to the
Miner and Herald
GOLDEN sCEPrRE

The first ten feet of work in a shaft
at the mouth of the Murphy-voorhess
tunnel on the Golden Sceptre has open
ed 2 feet Of white quartz carrying
average values of s23. The bottom of
the shaft is all in quartz, manganese
being present, but the values are con-
tanned in the white material only. The
excellent showing ut this depth seem t,
assure the presence of a rich shoot and
sinking will be continued. About 135
feet of work has been done on this
ledge in drifting and prosecuting, ana
much milling ore of a good grade has
been exposed.
On Sunday of this week, the lower
tunnel of the Golden Sceptre broke
into a streak Of ore, one and one-hsiff
feet in width, that shows an average
value of 5000. The ore is in manga
nese, quartz and porphyry. With this
ore is considerable low grade material.
The upper tunnel at 220 feet has cut a
oticah u dudiiH thdt AVERAGES
about SIS. These tunnels are crosscus-
ting the formation from the eastern
side of Bonanza mountain, overlooking
the town of Rhyolite. Superintendent
Ed Murphy has started another tunnel
on this side of the hill, on the Gold
Wedge fraction, to explore a ledge now
being developed by the Gibraltar com-
pany on adjoining ground. With these
good showings and the improvement in
the lease on the North Side fraction,
the Golden Sceptre development is GER
tainly looking up and fast demonstraS-
ing that the rich veins opened on the
Eclipse and Gibraltar are continuous
through Golden Sceptre territory, as
surface outcrops indicate.

NUGGET

The Bullfrog Nugget Mining COM
pany, which has been prospecting the
lodges that cross the Sunrise claim on
Bonanza mountain, has concluded that
good ore bodies can be opened with
depth, and will shortly start a tunnel at
the lower or west side of the property
which will cut at least six lodges that
show values on the surface from a few
dollars up into the hundreds, according
to the statement of the management.
Preliminary work is now in progress.
MI. Arkell, the manager, is now in the

UNITED BULLFRoG

The United Bullfrog Mines company,
of which J.. F. Mitchell is the president
and manager, has commenced work on
its Crystal springs group of claims just
east Of the Mayfower. 1t has two men
at work prospecting a strong and well
defined ledge which outcrops for sew
eral hundred feet, and in the tunnel,
which strikes this ledge at a depth Of
about 80 feet, good paintings of better
than $50 per ton are being obtaine l..
The showing is splendid, and Mr..
Mitchell says the property bears the
earmarks of a mine.

DENVER

In the Denver workings at a point on
the ledge back of the foot wall where
the winze from the second level con-
meets with the third level, in addition
to the 5 feet of ore that is being sorted
and sacked, a rich vein of light bromide
ore has this week been broken into.
The vein matter partakes of many Of
the characteristics of Original Bullfrog
ore, with a greenish-blue caste, and is
plentifully sprinkled with the yellow
metal, being enormously rich.
Sacking has beer continued at the
mouth of the third level during the
week.
The fourth level, the starting Of
work upon which was recorded in the
last issue, is now in about 10 feet. The
grading at this level for the new build
ings, including an assay office, ore
house, etc., is about completed. The
Denver assay outfit has arrived, and
the erection Of the mine buildings will
be started Immediately. Superinten9-
ent darcy, who is a practical chemist
and assayer, will for the present do thu
assaying for the company.
The third shipment of high grade
ore from the Denver was made to the
smelter this week.

sILvER BOW A CONFER
Prince Catlin Tells Of the Richness of
New Diggings

Prince Catlin, the largest individual
owner in Silver Bow, one of the pro.
prietors of the Catlin group, the prin.
cipal holding in the camp, arrived last
evening to spend the holidays with
relatives in this city, says the Carson
News.
Mr., Catlin said this morning to a
News representative:
"The camp today is looking better
than ever. Two shipments of ore have
already been made to Goldfeld, where
it is being milled. Every man in the
camp who cares to work is employed.
The leasers are doing the shipping, one
lease in particular has a vast amount of
shipping ore in sight and several of the
others are about to follow suit.
"On the main leads five shafts are
being sunk, of which the Catlin shaft
is the deepest at the present time. If
the ore proves to be as good at depth
as it is oil the surface the future of the
camp is assured.
"Senator Nixon and George Wing
field have recently bought out their
partner, Hugh Fulton, for $4,000.
They now W twenty claims and these
men have explicit faith in the camp, IS
Is shown by the price they paid for the
claims. 1t is understood that they hav
quite a ledge of high grade ore at the
bottom of the shaft, which is now one
hundred feet deep.
"On the Catlin group there is a ledge
seven feet wide, which shows an ore
shoot one hundred feet long on the
surface, about two feet and a half of
which in width is shipping ore, some of
which will run as high as 500 in gold
and silver. The shaft is down one hun.
dred feet and prosecuting has begun. l;
is expected hat the ledge will be cut
within the next hfteen feet.
Gin this shaft, which has been sum-
off the ledge, several large stringe IS
have beer cut, which show heavy
values, and are pitching into the ledge,
which is an excellent indication.
"The surface showing on this ledge
is considered one of the best in the
southern country. Four leasers are
working on this property with excellent
indications. They expect to have good
ore very soon.
"a shipment could be made from the
Catlin group at any time, but it is the
desire to attain depth before beginning
te send out ore.'
