The time has past when wealthy
young men can sit in the front row OF
a first class theoter and ogle the youns
women in the chorus. Certain manag-
ers used never to make strenuous OBJ
lection to this sort Of fun. provided the
young men didn't interfere with the
enjoyment of the rest Of the audience;
but no manager will permit 1t now.
Five well known young men about
town tried it at a Broadway theater
q few nights ago. and the management
put up with their nonsense until the
first part OF the show was over. Then
the five left their seats and started out
for drink. When they returned they
were allowed to enter the theater but
two ushers barred the aisle leading to
their seats. Near the ushers stood the
mana ger of the house. Said he to the
five young men:
The ladies of the chorus have COM

The veins of the Tonopah Companys
property outcropping at the surface
made 1t possible for them to mine and
ship ore Immediately, and the early his
tory will show that millions of dollars
had been taken out, principally by leas-
ers, before the company commenced &C
tive operations.
East. south and southwest of the Tono-
pah Company's property are other mines,
viz: The Belmont, Stone Cabin, Wan
dering Boy, Gold Hill. California, Jim
Butler, Fraction and West End, which
have been compelled to sink to various
depths through the Gaping or later ande-
site to reach the lode-bearing porphyry.
The ores of the Tonopah Company are
oxidized, which is explained by the out
cropping of the veins, while all the
veins capped by the later andesite are
sulphides. The values are gold and sill
yer, running about two-sevenths gold and
five-sevenths silver. The general strike
is easterly and westerly and the general
dip is to the north. The width Of veins
varies from three to forty feet and they
have been developed to a depth of HOO
feet.
Taking the above facts and knowing the
underground conditions as they actually
exist, L consider Tonopah as yet In its
infancy.
FACTS ABOUT GOLDFIELD.
Goldfeld, situated about thirty miles
south of Tonopah. was discovered in
October, 1902 1t was named the Grandpa
District, but was reorganized in Septem-
Der, 1903, under the name of Goldfeld.
The first discoveries of particular impor-
lance began in January, 1904.
The geological conditions of the camp
have not been thoroughly worked out,
but SO far as known are not very differ
ent from those existing at Tonopah. The
country rocks, as shown by outcrops,
are largely rhyolites, with limestone ap-
pearing in one or two instances. Deeper
work. however. has uncovered andesites
which seem to be entirely like those of
the Tonopah District These are cut by
heavy, persistent reefs of quartz, locally
often designated as quantities on account
of their resemblance to true quartzite.
These reefs are with little doubt true
assure veins of large proportions.
Their strike Is in a general north and
south direction and the dip is very nearly
vertical. The richer ores occur in <egu-
lar, persistent cnutes in these reefs. Sim
gle chutes have i'll several in
stances produced hundreds of
thousands of dollars. and this
only to the shallow depth that they
have been worked thus far. In addition
to these quartz reefs occurring In ande-
site are similar reefs apparently in
rhyolite, in which some of the highest
values Of the camp have been found.
These rhyolite reefs are probably more
widely distributed than those In ande-
site, and discoveries in them at the pres
ent time cover an area OF not less than
fifteen square miles.
The surface ores in all properties are
in oxidized material, and these extend
to considerable depth in some mines, as
the January and Jumbo. In the Flor
ence, Combination and Quartzite, on the
other hand. the sulphide ores replace the
oxidized ores at very moderate depth.
The values are almost exclusively in
gold, and this Is largely in native form.
Tellurides, however, are found in increas-

He was born at Richmond. Ind, In 1873,
