has been established on ore shipments
and that-o first-class merchandise a
rate of $3.50 per 100 pounds has been
established; on other grades of mer-
chandise graduating scale has been
adopted, these rates applying to goods
en- transit to and from San Francisco.
The Wells Fargo Express company has
also made reduction since the advent
OF the railroad of $3.50 on the 100
pounds to all Pacific coast points.
The Kendall, on the Sandstorm ridge.
is piling up ore for shipment and they
have body of $500 ore at depth of
only II feet. Altogether the total pro-
duction for September along the Sand
storm ridge, including the Kendall, will
exceed the highest production yet made.
for like period from that remarkable
territory. In both five and six, the
systematic line of development followed
is opening up new and rich ore bodies.
and the Sandstorm output under such
conditions is certain to grow in strength
and value.
lO-horse power hoist is now on the
Triangle ground and will be installed
the first of the week In the drift at
the lOO-foot point the ledge is widening
out. There are now abovt 10 tons of
shipping ore sacked on the dump.
Frank Horton, who is one of the
heaviest owners in the Goldfeld Daisy
Mining Company, which owns properties
in the vicinity of Diamondfield, is ex-
pected in Tonopah in day or so on his
way to San Francisco, Denver and New
York. Immediately upon his return he
will begin extensive development and
states that shipments will be made at
once. The exploitation will be extended
to known ore bodies which in their
present undeveloped state carry values
that warrant the consignment of the
ore to the Goldfield mills. Mr.. Horton
in company with George Wingfeld, who
IS his partner in a number of mining
propositions, made thorough inspec-
!
tion of the ground and is thoroughly
convinced of the feasibility of making
shipments as soon as operations are
commenced. Fourteen sets of leasers
are operating on Daisy territory and
three Of them have shipping ore.
The reports from the Red Top are
that the rich ore shoots at the so and
1O0-foot levels are getting better each
day. One of the principal stockholders
said it would be better not to publish
the values in the ore, but await the
smelter returns, which would speak for
themselves, There is now on the
dumps or broken down in the mine
about $500, 900 worth of ore and arrange
ments are being made to ship this very
shortly. The ledge has been encountered
at the l60-foot level and the ore is in
: creasing in value The Red Top is one
l of the richest mines in Nevada.

GOLDFIELD DISTRICT

George Peer and Charles Pugh have
secured a lease on block of the Cor
nishman of the Florence company and
are preparing to thoroughly exploit
their holding. The ground is located
$50 feet east of the famous Reilly lease,
side lines with the Florence claim and
adjoins the Watson and Wallace leases.
Their contract with the company holds
for period Of six months, with the
possibility of a two months extension,
dates from September 16, and carries
the usual royalties of 25 per cent on
smelling ore and 20 per cent on milling
ore. -Four lodges have been encountered
in the surface trenching and fair grade
assays have been obtained on all.
For period of seven days closing
yesterday, better than 2,340 tons of
ore, having gross value of approxi-
mately $500, 1872 were consigned to the
local mills or were shipped out over the
railroad to the smelters, says the Gold
field News. These figures are based
upon data furnished the News from the
local plants and the railway officials.
They represent practically monthly
output of 1880 tons, having a gross
valuation of 81, $50, 52S. While these
figures indicate an ore production of
which any camp might we'll be proud
they do not represent the total output
of the Goldfeld mining district, as no
returns were received from the Gold
field Reduction company, owing to the
absence from the city of Mr.. Gardner,
and the further fact that the Frank
mill is closed down temporarily pend
ing the arrival of an automatic sampler.
Then, again, the plant of the American
Reduction and Milling company, which
was started up for the first time a few
days since, has as yet handled but a
small amount of ore. With a few
days, however, the mill will be running
at its full capacity and will add its
quota to the grand total.
During the period first stated 200
tons of ore, having an average value of
$40 per ton were treated at the Com
binatiom eompany's mill; 693 tons of an
average value of $lO4 per ton were
treated at the plant of the Columbia
Sampling and Ore company; so tons :
experimental having an average value
of $50 per ton at the plant of the
American Reduction company; 290 tons
Of milling ore, having an average value
of $40 per ton, and 125 tons of shipping
ore, having an average of $3.50 per tor
at the plant Of the New Western Re
duction company. At the latter plant
there is now awaiting treatment 40C
tons of milling ore and 500 tons o
shipping ore.
Aside from this there went out VII

of ore of a gross value Of s19l, 900. |

Manhattan.

Charles Fancher, Harry A. Hudson
and Charles A. Wonacott returned from
Manhattan this week more sanguine
than ever that the young camp has
great and glorious future. Mr.. Fanch-
er and associates, Billy Grimes, DIR.
Davis and Harry Hudson have one of
the best leases on the Humphrey and
Saylor ground known as the 'Toggery. "
They have tunnel in 40 feet and have
cut several stringers including one
nine inches wide that is full of free
gold. They expect to tap monster
ledge at about rs feet Mr.. Wonacott's
lease is also looking fine.
Steinway.
James Meighan one of the owners of
the Steinway received word from Bull
frog this week that ledge Of quartz
which shows medium grade values has
been encountered in the drift being run
from the bottom of the 70-foot shaft on
the property.
In few days shift of men will be
put to work sinking the shaft to the
200 foot point. Work will be continued
in the drift until the big ledge to the
northeast is thoroughly exploited.
Drifts will also be run from the 2OO-foot
level.
The Steinway management is com
posed of some of the most progressive
and enterprising men in the state and
nothing will be left undone to thor
oughly explore the territory embraced
by their claims.
The Steinway is in close proximity
to the Shoshone- Montgomery and
Peery Montgomery. Medium grade
values have been obtained during the
course of development work and the

Prescott EIy,s Purchases.

Prescott Ely left for Virginia City
Wednesday to make a payment on the
Logan-Hully Como property in Lyon
county, recently purchased by him and
Ohio associates. The total purchase
price is $4,000 The company will in
stall a l00-stamp mill at the property.
Mr.. Ely has also bonded three other
claims in the same district for S45, 900.

amply Illustrated in the case of A. ].
Ogilvie, who came from Goldfeld to
Ida about three weeks ago, says the
Ida Enterprise. After arriving here
he and friend went out in the hills to do
the location work on claim recently
located by his friend. On the Sd of the
month he went to the camp Of another
friend, about five miles southwest of
Lime Point, where some good values
had been found by prospectors and the
country looked prom ising A couple of
days after he uncovered ledge from
which he took samples that look to be
two-thirds pure gold. This ledge is
small, six to eight inches, but assays
show the values to run to $345. 81 per
ton. A parallel ledge, three feet in
width, carries values of $52.22 and
gives every evidence of permanency.
The values are carried in blue quartz,
which lies between granite and por-
phyry. The find has been visited by
several who pronounce it to be one of
the best showings in the country. Mr.
Ogilvie has located five claims and has
them the Royal Gold group.
The ground is within four miles of the
new town of Tule City and had been
run over for months before Mr.. Ogilvie
made his lucky find

West End.
Sacking of ore continues at the West
End and this excellent property will
soon enter the list of shippers.
The New Sampling Works.
The sampler for the Western Ore
Purchasing Company at Miller's Station,
fourteen miles northwest of Tonopah,
is about completed. but it will not be
put in operation until the new power
plant of the Tonopah Mining Company
at the same place is started up. This
is expected to take place in two weeks
and from that time on electrical energy
for the big company will be generated
at Millers.
Silver Peak.
Reports from Silver Peak are to the
effect that the Valcalde mines have
been sold to syndicate headed by
Chas Y. Fuller, President of the
Mohawk-Alpine. The amount of money
involved could not be learned, but it is
understood that it will reach the $50, 900
figure. A three stamp mill was erected
on the property several years ago,
which has been in operation on high
grade gold ore almost continually and
the present ore reserves will no doubt
justify its enlargement to ten stamps.
The Mohawk-Alpine has let contract
for the addition of five stamps to the
mill erected in February, which with
the mill purchased with the Mary mine
will increase their capacity to 20 stamps.
Developments at this property continue
very satisfactory and it is not at all
impossible that it will prove larger
mine than the Blair. Silver Peak is to
be congratulated upon having interested
Mr.. Fuller, who is pusher, and also
one of the first to recognize the won
derful possibilities of that district.

Say, do you remember the long ago. Or do you at last forget The meadows where winds of the South
 land blew
 And perfumed nights dew-wet Are purple and soft and coaxing. too, AS mantle of fairy weave. And the whispering trees the moon shines
 through
 Where the night birds sit and grieve? remember 1t all: tn. wide spread oak With It's branches stretched afar; The lock in your eyes. the words you spoke, The sky and he single star That hung a-cicse to tte crescent moon As it sailed through purple space: I remember the night birds plaintive
 croon.
 The look on your upturned face. The city afar en silhouette.
 The blooms beneath your feet The crickets song seems sounding yet: The tasmines perfume sweet Comes floating to me adown the wind But yet-but yet-I am old. There are years. wide years. betwixt me And you and the age of gold. The age of so,d. wren the blood was red A surging resistless tide, And the feet impatient ic scale the heights That the years held all untriedl An. well. we cream as an old dog hunts In his sleep. but youth Is fed, Though tis sweet to remember the old, old
