work. which is now well under way, has
exposed large veins of wonderful richness
which, it is believed, will assay as high as
5000 ton.
The ore is free milling, can. be readily and
cheaply treated, and grows richer as the
work progresses. Stockholders in the Mount
Whitney Gold Mining company therefore
will have practically two strings to their
bow without any additional expense, as their
stock will share the profits of every such
investment the part of the management.
GOLDFIELD is the most wonderful min
ing camp in the world. Millions have been
produced in the past year, and millions more
will come out of the ground in the months
to come. The eyes of the investors and min
ing men of the universe are on Goldfield, and
the time to enter and share in the virgin
wealth of her undug millions is now.

The Spear Group
MOunt Whitney

The Spear group Mount Whitney pres
sents, without doubt, one of the greatest
mining possibilities ever known in this
country. They are not simply prospects,
they possess a mine already we'll developed
with three immense tunnels-one of which
has entered the mountain to a depth of 450
feet. Two shifts of working night
and day, and the grows richer as the
work goes on. Already there is 100000 of
free milling ore on the dump ready for the
mills-ores which can be treated easily and
cheaply and which assays as high as 5000
a ton.
The very best conditions needed for sue
cessful gold mining are here in abundance
and investors may confidently anticipate not
only rapid rise in the value of their shares
but also handsome dividends.
Abundance of wood and water for power
and general use is close at hand, and the
site for the mill is exceptionally convenient
as the ore can be carried directly to the
bins in the company's own cars over their
own tracks without expense of teaming or
hauling.
Two hundred and twenty acres of this
treasure bearing land controlled by the
Mount Whitney Gold Mining company. one
piece of property being located in Goldfield
and ten pieces at the base of Mount Whit

Whitney Gold Mining company rich and

prompts them to secure share in the mar
velous richness of this favored section.

Opportunities in Gold

No man can hope for the fullest de-
velopment Of his natural abilities If
he confines himself exclusively to one
small vocation. To know one thing

any man. But to enjoy this life as the
Creator intended that It should be en-

the opportunities that are presented.
Aside from the social enjoyments Of

The great west presents opportunities
today that cannot be taken advantage
Of twenty or fifty years from now.
The eastern business man who knows
nothing of these opportunities is not
unlike the child who has but one

comes from frank recognition Of the
fact that the great undeveloped re-
sources of the west belong to the peo-
pie and that the people should de-
velop them. The western prospector

Goldfield Probably
the Richest Mining
Camp in the World

In Nevada, the completion Of the
railroad to Tonopah has not only
helped that district, but II has stimu
lated operations at an adjoining camp
named Goldfeld, the growth of which
constitutes the most interesting epi-
sode of the year. Situated In an al
most waterless desert Goldheld has
shown, as was the case at Tonopah.
that rich gold ore can give profits
sufficient to overcome natural OH
stacles, however great. The produce
tion of this new district is dependent
entirely upon narrow seams OF phe-
nomenally rich ore, the persistence Of
which will be tested during the ensu-
ing year. Expectation of further dis
coveries is afforded by the results Of
prospecting in the adjoining region.

FACTS ABOUT THE COINAGE.
Director Of the Mint Gives. lnforma4
tlon as to Old and New Issles.

tlon as to Old and New Issues.
The director of the mint is called
on to answer such a wide range Of
questions concerning the values Of
old and new coins and medals that
he has found it necessary to issue
circulars covering matters Of this
sort. 1t tells some interesting facts.
1t appears that the mint does not buy
old coins or paper money except some
rare colonial coins In fine condition,
which are desired for the mint c&bi-
net
Mutilated or uncurrent United
States gold and silver coin is pur-
chased as bullion. The mint has no
pattern pieces for sale. The govern
ment pays no premium for the return
Of any OF its coins or paper money.
New coins cannot be struck until au-
thorized by an act of congress. The
mint supplies United States coins on
ly and not of any past date The $50
gold piece and the half-dollar and
quarter-dollar pieces in gold were
struck by private parties on the CALI
fornia coast during the 1S4s period
and not by the United States gov
ernment.
The coinage of the following coins
ceased in the years named: Half and
l-cent, copper, in 1857; 1-cent, nickel,
1864; half-dime and cents, silver,
and cents bronze, in 1873; 20 cents,
silver, 1875 trade dollars, 1888; 81
and 49, gold, and cents, nickel, 1883.
The Columbian half-dollar was coined
in 1893. The Lafayette dollar was
struck in 1899, the date on the coin
1sO0) being that of the unTeiling Of
the memorial.
There are certain markings on ev-
cry United States coin that enable
the place Of its coinage to be located.
Those struck at the Philadelphia mint
have no mint mark, but those struck
at all other mints are distlnguishe by
small letter on the reverse, near the
bottom. These letters are: for
Charlotte, N. c., discontinued in 1861;
&C for Carson City, New, discontinued
in 1893; D for Dahlonega, Ga, digcon.
tinued In 1861; o for New Orleans
and S for San Francisco.

Christabel gave the crystal long parting look, and
then ran away to don her wedding gown. Elinor,
she called over her shoulder, she neared her own
