People and Things

When a man is Five-times-ten and
over he ought to be looking around for
a quiet spot He has occasional twinges
of rheumatism, and his eyes call for
spectacles, or II not. he reads his news
paper at arms length. An occasional
white hair much too long shoots out
from his eyebrows. and hairs grow in
places that knew them not. Creases
under the eyes and on the forehead
seem to stay, a small bare spot on
his head increases its circumference
patches Of white appear here and there
especially above the ears and about
the chin, and joints sometimes crack
as II they needed oiling.
Awkward positions are less easily
assumed, and, some way, when he tries
to go up the ladder 1t seems shaky and
uncertain.
All, these are the tell-tale evidences
Of passing youth. Old age is coming
surely, creeping insiduously near,
slowly checking off freshness, strength,
buoyancy, hope, faith, expectation-for
what?
Let us see to II that we find out.
And when we do, that we retire grace
fully and in order.

Now I could name several men who
should have retired long ago, but who
still try to do the things which only
younger men can do well. One Of them
is Mark Twain who from Following
the Equator" (Which is always sign
of softening somewhere) killed himself
with his Double Barrelled Shot Gun"
Carl Schurz's jeremiades are just sad.
Russell Wallace, turning to inconsis-
tencies and vagaries, frets the reader
who knew him In his strength; Joaquin
Miller poses, and that foolish old man
up in the eighties neither safely nor
sanely running-actually running for
the Vice-Presidency, what spectacle
he was!

GOLD MOUNTAIN SECTION

The opening of the new year is to
witness active development of the
group of six claims in the Gold Noun
tain district recently purchased by G.
A. Lister, of W~illiamsport, Pa. The
acreage is located about half way be-
tween Goldfeld and Bullfrog and adj
joins the Gold Crescent Mining com
property. 1t is considered one
of the best partially developed pieces
of mineral bearing ground in that To-
cality and with proper and thorough
there is reason to believe
that it will be a money maker. MI.
Lister is now on his way east, but
prior to his departure arranged for the
resumption of work early in January.

MANHATTAN

Harry Sheldon, the well known
broker, who visited the Manhattan
district this week, is most enthusiastic
over the future Of that camp, says the
Tonopah Miner. He states that there
are fully 800 people in the district and
a large number Of leases are being oper-
ated with splendid surface showings.
Over twenty leases are being worked
on the Manhattan-De xter group, which
includes the Union No. 9 claim, on
which thirteen leases have been let. OF
these, Cole & Sinclair and three others
are sacking high grade pre-. The
Granger lease, on the adjoining claim,
has about $50 sacks of ore on the dump,
and high grade ore is being sacked
daily.
On the Stray Dog claim, the shaft on
the Hudson lease is down As feet, the
ore assaying from $500 to $1,000 a ton,
and a shipment from this has just been
made. At the Dron lease, adjoining,
the shaft is down 80 feet and ore of
very high grade is being sacked. There
are eight other leases on this claim
where ore is being sacked.
Mr.. Sheldon, with Allen Mason, has
lease No. / on the Crescent claim, about
100 feet from the Smith strike on the
Stray Dog, and is confident that devel-
opment work will open up some good
ore. He says that he made fully n
hundred paintings from all parts of the
camp, with splendid results, and that
not a day passes without reliable re-
ports coming in of new discoveries be-
ing made Like Goldfeld, Manhattan
is a poor mans camp, but of greats
extent, with the natural advantages of
wood and water which Goldfield lacked.
The town of Manhattan is building up
very rapidly and already the tents are
being replaced by frame buildings for
stores, and a hotel is now in course Of
construction.

claim jumping at Manhattan must
cease. That was the conclusion reach
ed at a miners meeting held in the
camp of Manhattan last Tuesday night
at which more than 100 determined
men went on record favoring drastic
measures, if necessary to rid that dis
trict Of claim Jumpers. And judging
from the temper of the men at their
first miners meeting the man who
jumps claims in Manhattan hereafter,
not only j%eopardizes his fortune, but
takes his life in his hands. The miners
will rid Manhattan of jumpers if they
have to do it with hemp.-Ex.

BUYING STOCK

Jay Gould once said to q friend:
When you invest in stock Of a mining
company, don't look for the best, for
you will never find it; look for a good
one, then invest, and do II quickly,
don't wait to see If it pans out all
right, for that is when you will lose
your opportunity . When you have
waited to see if it pans out you viii
have to pay a premium on the stock
and you will have lost the biggest ad-
vance in value. You must make
on your judgment and foresight AMI
not on demonstrated facts

Vigorous Compaign to Be Inaugurstod
in Echo Canon

Superintendent Leavitt, of the Hicks
4 Leavitt Echo canon property, came
to camp Tuesday and yesterday he re-
turned to Funeral with a load of SUP
plies, fuse, powder, etc. He also took
with him two wood miners, and viii
work a force of five men on the well
known group of claims with which the
superintendent name is connected.
AS heretofore announced the property
has been taken over by well known
Utah capitalists, under the name of the
Inyo Gold Mining company, and work
will be pushed vigorously and continu-
ously, instructions to this effect having
been received from President Holbrook.
1t is the purpose to Immediately start
sinking a 100-foot perpendicular shaft
between the Myrtle and Upper Tea
workings. Five parallel lodges, running
east and west, raverse the Upper Ten
group, and the program is to crosscut
these lodges at the 100-foot level.
The lower workings referred to con-
sist mainly of an open cut, with tale
and honeycombed quartz as the feat
ures of the vein matter.
The old workings above, on the Up
per Ten, consist of a tunnel 26 feet and
an incline shaft 46 feet in depth, with
a few feet of drifting done. The
ground here is of a granular quartz aud
somewhat treacherous. At the bottom
of this shaft a 5-foot average showed
SIS. The average of the tunnel, inst
below, was $24. The reporter saw sew
eral tests made of ore from the differ
ent workings and dumps, and not once
was the man who did the panning
skunked.
There IS very little doubt among
those who nave examined the property
of Hicks q Leavitt that systematic and
) scientific mining will make of it a big
mine.-Bullfrog Miner.
