BuLLFRoG ROYAL.

Active development work is about to
begin on the Eagle claim. A tunnel
will he run on the ledge from the north
end of the claim, starting on pay ore.
The company has completed its pros
pect work and found the ledge runs
through its two claims for a distance
of 5000 feet, averaging better than 6
feet in width and pans gold the entire
length OF the claims. The ledge is q
true issure and very promising. Sew
eral large specimens Of quartz rock
plsinly showing free gold have been
taken from it.
The two claims of the company are
situated in the midst of some of the
best mines of the district and being a
tunnel proposition, and only half a mile
to the custom mills at Gold Center, the
ore can be economically handled.

GOLDEN HAIR.

The little operetta, Golden HAIR
was presented last Wednesday evening
at the Ladies' Aid hall by the pupils
of Mrs. Roy s.. Bartlett's school of
vocal and INSTRUMENTAL music. The hall
was comfortably filed and those pres
ent did not regret that they had bought
a ticket to see the opera. Mrs. Bart
lett was congratulated by every n
over the performance of the little ones
whom she had drilled under adverse
conditions. All of the children per-
formed their parts well, singing and
acting their parts like veterans. Anna
Richter, as the Bard and Faithful, was
gwen an ovation, and she deserved it.
She has a voice that is clear, true and
expressive. Iva Phillips, as the Queen,
looked and acted the part. Anna Dona-
hue, as Golden Hair, showed dramatic
ability and a good voice for one so
young. Ethel Linton as Lightfoot, Nina
Parks as Frailty, and Enid Williams as
Airy, all did s~plendidly. The chorus
of Forest Children was a revelation to

The decision of the governing board
of the town of Goldield in regard to the
use of gasoline or oil stoves within the
fire limits may work a little hardship
to some but it was taken fer the bene-
fit of all the residents and property
owners. It's enforcement to the letter
should be carried out and the board
will have the hearty endorsement of
80 per cent of the people of the camp.
The enforcement of the state law in
regard to the storage of explosives
within the city limits will nave the
endorsement of all. Any failure to
comply with the law should be vigor-
ously pushed, no matter who may be
the offender. Goldfield has suffered
enough already in the way of fires and
is not in any position to fight another
one. The fires that have occurred have
convinced every one that the greatest
care should be taken in preventing the
start of any little blaze.

remain for about ten days.

the camp in September and take up
permanent residence.
The supply of ranch products from
the Bishop Creek country that is com
ing into Goldfeld this year is not near
ly so great as it was last. The reason
is that the new camps which have
sprung up near the ranch country are
taking all that is offered.
Paul Ferguson, a prominent mining

inspection of the Goldfeld district. Mr..
Ferguson is much pleased with the min

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS.

An enthusiastic and largely attended
meeting of men interested in the forma-
tion of a lodge of the Catholic society
known as the knights of Columbus
was held in the Catholic church We'd
nesday evening at 1880 O'Clock. Pre-
liminary steps looking toward the or
ganization of a lodge were taken, and
committees on membership, organiza-
tion, ways and means, ETC., were ap-
pointed. The success of the PROPOSE
tion seems to be already assured and it
is safe to state that within a few weeks
a local lodge of that order will be an
accomplished fact. There are many
members of the society already in the
camp, hailing from all portions of the
country, with, perhaps, the preponder-
ance former residents of Cripple Creek
and Victor.
At the time of the recent national
gathering of the society at Los Angeles,
the Goldfeld and Tonopah mining dis
triets were well represented, both in
the social and business sessions of the
Knights. 1t raj during that conclave
that the ACCESSIBILITY of instituting a
lodge here was first preached. The
subject was discussed at some length
with the national and the California
and Nevada officers, with the result
that on the return of tho local members
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1905-07-28

and delegates steps were taken to bring
about the desired end.
The meeting of Wednesday night is
the result and it is believed that the
outcome of that meeting will be the
establishment of a large and flourish
ing lodge at this point.
