THE COLD COIN
A Very Promising Group Near
CoIconda

Thomas Majors Of Go'conda was u
Winnemucca today and gave the Silver
State some information about his mine.
situated twelve miles south OF Go conda.
Mr.. Majors owns three claims which
have been recently Incorporated under
the name Of the Gold Coin Mining and
MI ling Co.. and rrcm p esent Indications
he has a mine that wi do liz share to
hasten the mining revival in Humboldt
y.
The property Is favorably located. be-
ing only mile and a haf from the
railroad and having p enty Of water for
milling purposes. The ore is free mill-
Ing and an average OF seven assays re.
Gently made give the high figure Of $1s4.So
per ton. The lowest assay shows value
Of $l1.2o and running up to Sass. with
concentrates going up to s2.s47.
The ledge is 80 feet wide In milling ore,
with streaks of h,gh-grade running
through 1t. 1t shows the high values for
five hundred feet and there il q vast
quantity of low grade ore that will
some day be worked with a profit.
Mr.. Majors located the Gold Coin i've
years ago and has worked It at inter-
walls since that time. shipping ore to Salt
Lake and TO San Francisco for reduc-
tion. Ony one shift Is beng worked
at present. but the high values encoun-
tered recent y has determined the owner
to push developmnt work.
Mr.. Majors Is interested In . number
Of other prospects in the vicinity OF
Golconda and has some very promising
lead and silver Gains. He thinks old

vival in the near future.

A dispatch from Hawthorne says:
A story Is In circulation at this place
to the effect that another long cut-off 10
to be built by the Carson and Co ado
railway. The story has it that the new
roadway wi | not swir far to the east
that another cut-ofr will be made from Z

from thirty to forty miles and secur M

Of plac ng Sodavi ., New Boston, Lun-
ing and the other stations south Of Haw-
thorne and north of Benton on q branch
line and deprive Tnopah and Goldfeld Of

The story Is not without foundation, ~
1t comes from railroad men who gavo
out the statement unofficialsy.
They say the company IL seeking for
short route between Mojave and Haxen
and that the engineers have instructions
to pan route that will save time with-
out regard to the small stations that
may be affected. The route from Haw-
thorne south Is exceedingly tortuous, tho
present crossing of the White Mountains
being faulty in many respects. About
ninety-three mi es of tracks would be af-

that the new track would be on q much

And asked a drausht from the spring that
flowed

And Maud, in her EFFORT TO seem at ease,

And she forgot her brier-torn gown,
And her graceful ankles, bare and brown.

She lit with both bare feet right IN the
nest.

air
There burst a wild shrek, fit to raise your
