wide and 264 feet long, and will be fitted
up with all the woodworking machinery
necessary for the work of this impor-
tant department. An exhaust system
will convey all the shayings and sawdust
directlyt from all of the machines into
the boilers in the power-house, that will
be adjacent to the building. Between
the mill building and the paint shop an
mex will be built fire-proof lumber shed
60 feet wide and 256 feet long. The
power-house will be equipped with six
boilers of 1900 horsepower, to be
uniquely set, each one by itself, and
three in row on each side Of the 62-
S0-foot room within the power-house
proper, on the outside of which is a
brick smokestack, 100 feet high and IL
feet at the base, and. win be connected
with the boiler furnaces by an under-
ground duct.
The ashes will be removed through a
tunnel located directly under the ash pits
of the furnaces. Yard ash cars will be
operated on loose trucks along dilly
track in the tunnel. which terminates at
pit outside the buildings where the car
bodies will be hoisted and their contents
dumped into gondola cars by pneumatic
lift, mounted on small truck on wheels
ON an adjoining parallel track.
For the convenience o the official
force to be connected with the immense
plant, plans have been completed for a
two-story office Building sixty feet wide
and 100 feet long, with an eighty-foot
wide and 190-foot long covered platform
at one end, a dry kiln, fifty feet by sew
enty-6ve feet, several lavatory buildings,
soap bins, steel and iron racks, coke and
coal storage bins and several other mis-
ceEaneous buildings. A subway will
connect all the buildings, FIVE feet wide
and six feet high, with the power house.
This tunnel wila be used largely for con-
veying all pipes connected with the var
ious shops and special duct embedded
in the floor to carry the compressed air
pipes.
Indirect radiation will be used to heat
the pain shop of the paint and coach
building, and an up-to-date ventilating
system, which will be designed to change
the air about five times per hour, thus
facilitating the drying of paint and var
nish work. The overhead fan system of
hot air wili be used for heating the
coach and truck shops as we'll as the
paint and coach shop. The locomotive
shop and mill buildings will be heated by
direct radiation with coils on the walls.
The architectural plans for the plant
were made by Farnk J. Niles, the COM
pany's architect, under the direction and
supervision of L. Bush, chief engineer.
e. J. Cantine, division engineer Of the
Morris and Essex division, has charge of
the work of construction, and j. 3. Smell
looks after the mill work. F. L. Wheat
on assistant engineer, as well as super
intendent Of buildings and docks, has
personal charge of the work, and the
equipment of the buildings is being done
under the care of R. Fitzpatrick.

it necessary, in order to hold his forces
together and accomplish the defeat of
Chairman Fry for reelection, to stand
himself as candidate for the head Of

not make any reply to this statement and
his silence angered the City Hall crowd.

Farmer Abner Benson Astonishes
Church Gathering.

This story has been told times
enough to be true, and 1 presume it is.
Several years ago there lived at North
Paris, Me-, a prosperous farmer by the
name of Abner Benson, who was a
good Methodist, and also a member of
the grange. The grange meetings were
held in the church as well as the re-
ligious meetings, and this fact was the
cause of the following contretemps:
Abner was a red faced, portly man
of rather pompous appearance. The
four words, che knew it ALL might
have described him very well. One
afternoon as he was riding past the
church he noticed that a meeting was
being held there, and, not knowing
that any church melting had been
called, he at once took it for granted
that it must be a grange meeting.
He hitched his horse, went into the
entry and knocked on the door, after
the fashion of the grangers; and, as it
happened, the doorkeeper of the grange
was there, and on hearing a knocking,
got up and opened the door, %whereupon
Abner stepped in, and, with a pom
pous bow and flourish, gave, in a voice
loud enough to reach every ear in the
church, the grange password, "Cul-ti-
v~a-to-i' "Cul-ti-va-tori' You can
imagine the smile hat illuminated that
Methodist class meeting. -Boston Her.

OF rwenty-hv " Per Cent Paid by Tono'
pah Company.

The directors of the Tonopah Mining
company have notified the stockholders
that the regular quarterly dividend OF
% per cent, or 25 cents a share, will be
paid on October 21st to stockholders of
record at 3 o'clock p. m, October 10,
1905.
This is the third regular dividend of
this mount paid this year making the
total dividends distributed $750,000, in
addition to which the company re-
deemed it's preferred stock, amounting
to 100000, bringing the sun total of
its disbursements to $~1,050,00O for
1905.
The present dividend of 100 per cent
per annum, while most satisfactory, is
being earned from average shipments
OF only about $50 tons a week, nearly
all of which is mined by hand power
from development work on and above
the 600-foot level and raised to the sur.
face by small gasoline hoists. For this
reason and because the big smelling
plants can not treat a greater quantity
of Tonopah ores, the output of the
mine is small compared with what 1t
can and will produce. In a short time
the company will have replaced its
gasoline hoists with powerful electric
hosting plants at the Mizpah, Silver
Top, Red Plume and Desert Queen
shafts, and power drills will be used
throughout the mine. Early next year
the new smelter at Garfield Beach, near
Salt Lake, will be in the market for
Tonopah ores and the company's 100
stamp will also be reducing about $50
tons a day. With these improved and
cheaper facilities for operating the
mine and marketing the ores, it is safe
to predict that the company will easily
pay dividends at the rate of 25 cents a
share every month, or $3,000,000 per
annum. -Tonopah Liner.

COPPER BELT.

There is considerable development
work going on now on what is called
the Sodaville copper belt, but which
is really the Shoshone mining district
at the northern end Of Pilot mountains,
eighteen miles east Of Nina, the new
town on the C. & c. railroad. The
copper belt on both sides Of this range
is about twelve miles long, in a con-
tact of granite and lime. On the east
side is the Dunlap mine, now being de-
veloped by the G~uggenheim Explora-
ton syndicate; OF the north end is the
Copper Contact, a shipping mine, and
on the south end is the Darcy mine,
which is also producing shipping ore.
On the west side, at Garnet, are ten
claims owned by the Utavada Copper
company, of which Henry Cutting,
Mark Averill and A. l.. Stewart are
the owners. The vein here, known as
the north vein, is Is feet wide, and has
beer proved for 300 feet on it's course,
being covered with an iron Gaping
assaying from So to 800 in gold, while
the copper ore assays from 5 to 65 per
cent, with some gold, silver and lead
values. shipment of forty tons, re-
Gently made, Melted $40 a ton. The
shaft on this property is now down 70
feet ant will be sunk $50 feet before
c~ross-cutting. Parallel to this are the
middle vein, 80 feet wide, and the
south vein, 200 feet wide. A shipment
from the latter Melted IA per cent cop
per, $40 gold and So silver, or $40 a ton.
There are also some promising silver
lead properties in the vicinity, show
ing shipping ore on the surface. As the
district is well supplied with water and
$25 ore can be shipped at a profit, it is
not surprising that it is attracting
capital. -Tonopah Miner.

NEW ROAD INTO TONoPAH
Nevada Central Railroad Will Prob
ably Be Extended

A dispatch in the San Francisco
Bulletin says:
J. q. Phelps Stokes, who is one of
the prominent business men of New
York and who is credited with being
the possessor of several millions, has
come to the belief that the Nevada
Central railroad, of which he is the
president, may be made into a paying
property.
The Nevada Central runs from Bat
tie Mountain on the line of the Central
Pacific to Austin. Austin was once a
rich mining town, but of late years it
has declined and there is little travel
there. Trains are run three times a
week each way, and the Nevada Cen
trail is in the same position as the Car
son & Colorado was when owned by d.
o. Mills.
Mr.. Phelps has, it is said, determined
to extend the road and will build into
Tonopah. The distance is 100 miles,
and it is reported that he has been in
communication with certain parties in
this city as to the ~advisability of hav-
ing the extension built as soon as pos
sible.
The road will not run from the town
of Austin, but will start from a place
which is called Austin Junction. When
the line was first built the intention
was to continue it still farther south,
but nothing was ever DONE. Now that
the T%onopah region has grown SO rich
Mr.. Phelps thinks it would prove pay
ing if he built into Tonopah.
The line is ninety-three miles long,
has -four locomotives and ffty-four
cars. It's officers are j. G.. Phelps,
president; j. S. Hoyt, vice president;
E. Daggett, general manager; j. w.
Hiskey, secretary and superintendent;
N. E. Bartoo, master mechanic, and J.
w. Treat, roadmaster.

tDuttaitk hautA't
There was a big crowd around the
Merchants hotel Sunday morning last,
when Miss Lillian X. Malcolm, mount
ed on her trusty sorreI steed, started
on a prospecting trip across Death val
ley to the Panamint.
And of course the crowd was as curi-
Gus as it was large-curious to see the
"lady prospector,' who vas to start
IN a trip that has not always been
made without loss of life even by
strong, robust manhood.
Miss Malcolm did not betray appre-
hension, even if she felt it. On the
contrary she was smiling and happy,
and said to a reporter that Death val
ley had no terrors for her.
The "lady prospector' obtained
most of her prospecting trousseau in
Bullfrog. Her hair was braided and
tied in numerous labor-saving knots
with white vaby ribbon. This rather
fantastic effect formed the background
for a face that may be called pretty,
but which is certain to lose much of
its feminine delicacy and whiteness
ere the sun 8 rays of Death valley get
through with it, especially as the light
colOred felt hat that the "lady pros
pector' wore was narrow-brimmed.
Miss Malcolm dress was not as long
as the conventional lady's riding habit,
but it easily formed a junction with
the tops of the tan-colored men s boots
that she wore. She also had a pair of
mems khaki pants, which she would
don when she "got out a ways
Miss Malcolm's fellow prospectors
are Tom McCabe, George Peget and
Anthony McCauley. The party took
four horses and four mules, two of the
latter being packed heavily with sup
plies. They calculate to stay out two
or three months, during which time the
Panamint will be prospected thor
oughly.
Tom McCabe and George Peget are
old-time prospectors and know the
country they are going to very we'll.
Anthony McCauley is a newspaper
man with outside connections.
Miss Malcolm is no tenderfoot, al
though this is her first trip on the
desert south of T~horp's. In 1890 the
"lady prospector' was first heard of
in Alaska, where she took as many
chances and suffered as many priva
tions as any of the sturdy men
pioneers. She made many hazardous
trips, among these being a trip over
Chilkoot pass alone with dogs and
sleds. On one occasion Miss Malcolm
with M. j. Conway, now of Bullfrog
and Charles Lowe, left Kugarrock for
Nome, a distance of us miles, on snow
shoes. 1t was in May. The ice was
treacherous and the snow was melting
The rivers were breaking up and the
female gold hunter had to jump from
one cake of ice to another, at one time
falling in and nearly drowning. The
party ran out of grub and, were it not
for the tomakins-a sort of white
pheasant-which Mr.. Conway killed,
the members of the party would prob
ably have starved.
Miss Malcolm is said to have acquir-
ed some good property, including a
valuable water right, near Goldfield,
which, by the way, is now in litigation
