January Jones, Managing Director
of the January Jones Exploration Co.,
of Goldfeld and New York, d~iscoverer
of the January vein of Goldfeld, Ne
vada, which yielded a million dollars
worth of ore in eleven months, has en-
deared himself to thousands because
of the immense sums of money he has
made and divided among those who
nave invested along with him in
Southern Nevada gold mines.
Jones struck the January vein of
Goldfeld in January, 1904, and by
January 1st, 1905, every 800 invest
cd with him in the January had earned
$4,000.
January Jones has probably made
more investors rich in less time than
any other mining mar in the world,
and his career is an object lesson to
all who would like to enjoy the inn
mense profits that are being made in
the gold mines of Nevada.
just ninety days ago January Jones
organized the Bullfrog Eclipse Mining
Co., of Bullfrog, Nevada, and sold
100000 shares of stock at Is cents per
share in a single day.
Presto! A strike of $4,000 ore has
just been made on the property, the
stock has gone up $50 per cent, and
January Jones has proved again that
he Is the luckiest and safest mining
man in all of Nevada for investors ia
follow.
When January Jones announced six
ty days ago that ne had discovered an.
other great undeveloped mine in the
Sassy Sal, all Goldfeld grew expectant
and excited. Within a trice the ground
around the Sassy Sal multiplied in val
ne twenty fold, and now world-famous
experts declare that the Sassy Sal is
a mountain Of gold-impregnnted min,
eral.
The Sassy Sal property consists of
forty acres of mineralized ground stu
ated two and one-half miles west of
the famous Jumbo, Combination and
January mines of Goldfeld that have
already produced millions.

Pacific Railroad company which the
stockholders are called upon 10 authorize
on May 8, was generally taken In wan
street yesterday as an indication OF prog
ress in the great railroad deals so Ions

II has been for some time predicted
that Immediately following the fnal de-
cision Of the Northern Securities case
some announcement would come regard

made today regarding the use 10 which

a director of the company stated last
night that without doubt a large part
OF the new capital would be used 10

1.-The long forgotten grave of John Paul
Jones for which Ambassador Porter has
been diligently searching the old ceme-
teries Of Paris has been found. but not
there. II is true he died at Paris and
II was natural 10 suppose he was buried
there.

turns out 10 be incorrect. as Gen. Porter
will be surprised 10 learn as soon as he

him by an old lady, a Scotch woman.

his brilliant record as sea fighter in our

Immediately wrote to him TO tell him
that the grave of this hero was there

caused his remains 10 be transported

tect him from the evil fame he had ac-
quired among his Scotch countrymen.
