THE BULLFROG DISTRICT
TRIP VISITS BuLLFRoa

awe hope to have whistles blowing
IN Bullfrog before the Clark people
do, was the remark made by Herbert
Ir-pp while on a visit Of inspection to
this camp on Sunday.
Mr.. Trip is the son Of Alonzo w.
Trlpp of the Tonopah and Goldfeld
railroae. The younger Trip is, in
fact, the guiding spirit of the move
ment, which has for it's object the
building Of the railroad from Goldfeld
to Bullfrog. Accompany ing Mr.. Trip
was Assistant Auditor William Keith.
Both gentlemen came to camp in an
auto Saturday evening and attended
the opening of the Montgomery hotel.
On Sunday the railroad men were
the guests of w. X. Wise, manager at
Bullfrog Of the Nevada Coal and Lum-
Der company, who took them over the
district in a four-horse rig. In the
party also were Cashier Frank II.
Stickney, Len p. McGarry, Judge
Norris, Frank p. Kerns and William J
Tobin.
The Trip party first visited the
Gold Bar mine, the scene of the latest
strike excitement, where, after look.
ing over the property, luncheon was
served. The Original Bullfrog was
then taken in and the visitors were
taken through the workings of this
famous property.
Then Mr.. Wise drove to the Mont.
gomery-Shoshone, and from thence ia
Hicks hot springs, where an elaborate
duck dinner was eaten with a relish.
This was Mr.. Trips first visit e
Bullfrog and he expressed himself as
being highly a~ppreciative of the cour
tesies extended and as being deeply
impressed with what he had seen OF
the mining industry and the resources
of Bullfrog. There is no doubt that
as one result of the visit, more en-
thusiasm will be thrown into the build.
ing of the railroad from the north, and
as intimated by the quoted remark II
the young railroad man, the ambition
of the 1onopah-Goldfeld people will
be to get in here first.
The Trip party left for the north
Monday morning.

ORIGINAL

The vicinity of the Original Bullfrog
mine presents a scene of inspiring ac-
tivity.
The Original Bullfrog, the Big Bull
frog, the Bullfrog West Extension, the
Bullfrog Extension, the Original Bull
frog Extension, to say nothing about
the fractions and annexes, all help N
making a scene that is a veritable bee
hive of industry in a mining sense.
The Original, of course, occupies the
center of the stage of action. Here a
big hosting plant is being installed,
and preparations are being made for
the development of the districts first
mine on a broader scale than ever be-
fore.
Adjoining the Original on the east
the Bulifrog Extension is pushing two
~upraises from its incline tunnel while
waiting the arrival of machinery for
shaft and tunnel work.
The Bullfrog West Extension, on the
west, which has only recently started
operations, has shaped up the collar of
its new shaft and sinking will be push
ed vigorously for 80 feet, when it is
the intention to crOsscut the ledge.
To the north Superintendent Lid
stone has just installed a within on the
Original Bullfrog Extension, and rock
from the shaft is being hauled up at
the rate of about 25 tons in "a hours.
The big power plant on the Big
Bulltrog, just to the south of the
Original, is not making much noise, but
rock is being broken and hoisted in a
satisfactory manner, especially to Mr..
Fontana, who sees much Improvement
in the ore.

THE ECLIPSE

The Eclipse is working a force of ten
men in cutting a station for it's plant
of machinery and making a roadway
on Bonanza, the southern slope of
which mountain shows increased activ-
Iity. In making the road many big cuts
will be necessary and several deep
draws will be filed up.
The plant, which win consist of an
engine, compressor and air drills, will
be placed at the mouth of the Tiger
tunnel. From this tunnel, it is under
stood, a crosscut will be made to the
Hobo shaft, which has now attained a
depth approximately of 100 feet, and
which is still in the vein of manganese
quartz that the shaft was started upon,
only that the same is getting richer
and greater with every shot.

GREAT EASTERN

The shaft on the Great Eastern IS
down about 100 feet, and the drift
from the 150-foot level has been driven
20 feet, both of which Superintendent
McCauley informs us, are in vein mat
ter, though he would make no state
ment as to it's value. By reason of its
excellent location, the Great Eastern
is due to be in the bunch with the
best of them, and Dame Rumor tells of
excellent strikes being made. These
rumors are, however, unofficial, and
the superintendent at present has nc
statement to make other than that al.
ready given.

aeldfeld People Believe That They
Have Struck the Mother Lode
carson News.)

ktafson News
"Montana Red,D the well known
prospector Of this city, returned from
South Camp last evening, where he has
been stationed for two weeks looking
after the mining interests Of Carson
City people. He reports that n rich
gold ledge has been uncovered by
Goldfeld prospectors twelve miles
northeast of South Camp on Summit
fat, and that the Goldfeld people hold
four claims on the extension of the
ledge. The rich strike was encoun-
tered by means Of trenching. At a
depth of five feet the ledge was en-
countered. On examining the ledge he
found the footwall in ploce, the ledge
being in contact with black manganese,
red quartz and porphyry, the ledge
being firm and well defined, the hang
ing walls in contact with granite and
porphyry, and from the present outlook
the ledge is permanent and the pro-
gress of development work will demon
state the future permanency of the
big ledge.
$As depth is attained the ledge no
doubt will widen. Returns from the
ore from the entire width of the ledge
average from $35 to $40 in gold which
is all free milling ore. Samples from
the entire width of the ledge show
rich paintings, which would give a
person the gold fever. Surface float
also gives rich paintings on all four
Claims.
THE Goldield people are much en-
Outraged over these discoveries, and
are satisfied that they have uncovered
the rich ledge of South Camp, which
for years has baffied the ~prospector in
tracing the source of the hidden ledge.
The ledge was blind, and its linear
course runs east and west. A 100-foot
shaft will at once be sunk to prove the
depth and p~ermanency of the big ledge.
The Goldield people will then cross
cut to tap the ledge. From $4,000 Ia
1900 will be spent in developing the
newly discovered mine, and the results
will be watched with interest by the
people of this city. The Goldfeld PEG.
pie are not at this time ready to give
information to the public concerning
their new strike. They have a rich
prospect in sight and if the ledge holds
its ~permanency will be the first heavy
bullion producef Of South Camp.

TIMBERING THE SURPRISE

The shaft on the Surprise claim, on
the south slope of Bonanza, is down
IL feet, and yesterday Manager Tobin
started timbering. Values of from Sc
to 81 have been obtained from the
very grass roots. At the bottom of
the shallow workings the miners on
Wednesday had 3 inches of manganese
quartz that pans gold copiously. The
vein is widening win depth and the
manager has a broad smile and an
elastic step.

Three shifts are being worked on the
