running a crosscut east from the 100

appears to be a large ledge. Milling

think that a pay ore shoot is close AT

with it within a few feet more OF

NEWS FROM BUENA VISTA
Especial Correspondence.)

Buena Vista, New, Nov. 90, 1905.
At the time of fling this dispatch
your correspondent was in receipt of a
message via the newly completed tele-
phone line to the Brownie mine and
Goldhitt which indicates that the sys-
TEN is in good working order. Local
headquarters of the company have been
established in the store of Will l..
Smith, who reports a good volume of
business and a number of applications
for phones.
The first message from the Brownie
was of a decidedly encouraging nature
and was received with general satisfac-
ton here. 1t was to the effect that an
8-foot body of ore was being mined,
assaying from $50 to 800 in gold to
the ton, and that a shipment would 20
out not later than December IL.
Ore of shipping grade is being taken
out of the Tip Top mine of the Buena
Vista Mining & Milling company and a
consignment is to 60 out as soon as
the sacks, now en- route, arrive here.
AL Stevens, John Van Wrinkle and
Henry Marcus, the latter of the well
known firm of Lund & Marcus, mining
brokers of this camp, left for San
Francisco IN November 26, for the
purpose of completing the incorporation
papers of the before mentioned com
pany and will arrange to have the stock
handled by San Francisco parties in
conjunction with the firm of Lund &
Marcus.
Foster and Hit are engaged in cross
cutting at the 50-foot level in the Lilly
shaft and nave extended the drift g

from it's face and several ~stringers OF
rich ore have been penetrated as the
cut has been advanced. All of then
dip toward the main ledge and it is be.
lieved that within a few feet more OF
drifting it will be tapped.
Sinking still continues in the shaft
on the Inman lease on the Ticker
claim. An 18-inch streak is being fol
lowed down and values are holding al
the 800 mark. A lotion shipment il
to be made within a few days.
Among the recent arrivals here arc
Will briggs and James Rolly, two well
known mining men of Nevada and
southern California. They have in.

DETROIT OPERATIONS

Three shafts each 25 feet in depth
are being sunk IN the holdings of the
Detroit Consolidated Gold Mining con-
pany, adjoining the acreage of the
Goldfeld Bull Dog Gold Mining COM
pany on the east. The work is being
done by contract and for the purpose
of proving the continuity of the ledge.
The result will be accomplished this
week and is to be followed by develop

and drifts.

VALUES

Word was received here yesterday
from r. P. Awkward, manager of the
Hilltop claim at Bullfrog, to the effect
that a large body of $32 ore had been
opened up. The quartz is highly miner
allied and lies along the hanging wall.
The shaft is being sunk upon it and at
a depth of less than 30 feet average
values in the amount stated are being
secured. Sinking is to be continued
until a depth of so feet is reached when
the ledge is to be crosscut and proved

They have a shaft down Is feet ON the

will at first be confined to the running
of open cuts in order to determine the
best place to sink a shaft and will be
followed by exploration of the hedges

demonstrated by surface assays and
paintings and with proper development

~GoLDFIELD NOBLE VEIN

In running a drift west from the
main drift at the 50-foot level of the
Goldfeld Noble company's shaft south
east of Dlamondfeld, a 4-foot vein of
mineralized quartz carrying some iron
has been disclosed. The find was made
a few days ago and assays denote the
presence of low grade but steady gold
values. The ledge is now being ex-
plored for the purpose of determining
its strike with the view of sinking d
shaft from surface.

MCMAHON co. WILL DEVELOP
Plans have been formulated by the
Mcmahon Gold Mining company to at
once prospect and prove up a part of
their 100 acres of mineral ground To-
Gated in the D~iamondield section. A
portion of the holdings are located
near the Brooklyn and the remainder in
the vicinity of the Jumbo Extension
company's estate. Surface exploration
is now on and has resulted in the find
ing of a number of promising appear
ing veins. On the Sunlight claim, lying
between the Jumbo Extension and
Golane4 Diamond companies holdings,
"a foot ledge has been opened up by
surface trenehing for a considerable
distance and assays secured ranging
from So to $40 per ton. 1t has a north
and south trend and lies about 400 feet
from the Black Butte claim of the
D~iamondfeld Black Butte Consolidated
company. A shaft is to be sunk on
this ledge to a depth of 200 feet when
drifts will be extended along its trend
with the expectation of locating ship
ping values in place.
Several promising lodges have re-
Gently been disclosed on that portion
of the acreage located IN the vicinity
of the Apex and Brooklyn groups. The
outcrop on those properties trends to-
ward it and leads the management to
believe that the same veins pass
through Mcmahon ground.

How Adams Snubbed Jackson.

President Monroe gave a public
reception the night after the cleo
ton of his successor by the house
of representatives. The White
House, recently rebuilt after its de-
struction by the British, was splen-
didly furnished. By chance the pres
ident elect and General Jackson met
in the crowded east room. A lady
was leaning on General Jackson's
right arm. The general extended
his hand cordially, saying:
GLOW do you do, Mr.. Adams? l
give you my left hand, for the right,
as you see, is devoted to the fair. |
hope you are very well, sir"
Adams took the proffered hand,
but his reply was in chilling tone
"Very well, sir. | hope General
Jackson is we'll"
Needless to add, Jackson did not
call often at the White House dur
