NEWS FROM BULLFROC.

Especial Correspondence of The NEws.)

Especial correspondence of THE NEws.)
Judge l.. o. Ray, owner OF several of
the most prominent properties in Bull
frog district, is a visitor in the city.
The Judge was one of the first to reach
the southern district and was fortunate
in securing practically the pick Of loca-
tons in the vicinity of Ladd n%ftuntain,
where so many mines are being opened
up. Among the most promising prop
critics he owns are the Denver and Ven
ture claims, upon which an exception
ally rich strike was recently made, and
the Tramp group, which is showing up
exceedingly wei.
In speaking Of the district in general
Judge Ray said the developments that
have been made during the past two
months have turned out even better
than the most sanguine ~prospectors had
hoped for. While a number of discov-
cries of very rich oreihad been made the
greatness Of the district unquestionably
Law in the immense dykes of milling ore
that have been proved. That there
would be many properties that would
produce a heavy tonnage of shipping ore
had been proved beyond any doubt yet
the fame IF the camp would come when
mills were built and the great reserves
Of medium grade ore treated on the
ground.
Judge Ray reports hat just before he
left camp the tunnel on the Original
Bullfrog mine had tapped the ledge at a
depth of 20 feet, exposing a face Of ore
that sampled from $1,000 to $4,000 per
ton. He states also, that as crOsscutting
advances in the tunnel on the Clark,
Ladd and Benson group-now the Bull
frog mine-the showing increases, prov
ing this property to be II of the great
est in southern Nevada.
With reference to the properties he
owns the visitor was more or less re-
ticent, although he ct; ted the rich strike
on the Denver is holding out well, there
being Is inches of high grade ore show
ing in a 4 foot ledge. Another prop
erty he mentioned was the Bullfrog
National Bank, which OWNS the Patrick
group, where active development work
had commenced with a force OF 10 men.
From surface showings AMI the devel-
opnent work that had been done on
adjoining mines the judge declared this
property would undoubtedly become
one of the great producers of Bullfrog
and add substantially to the import
ance of the district in general. In
speaking of the Tramp group he said he
would not exchange any one of the
three claims for the Denver, notwith-
standing the exceedingly rich strike
that had been made, as he was con-
WINGED these claims contained such a
tonnage of milling ore that it would be
be many years before they were ex-
hausted and that fortunes awaited those
who we're interested in them.

AMARGOsA, Bulltrog mining district,
Feb. 21.-Since the completion IF the
telephone line to this place the town has
taken on new life. Mining men are
found here from all parts OF the great
district to do business and when once
they arrive are not 10th to remain.
Str. myers are pouring in at Il rate here
tofore unprecedented and they are more
than pleased with what they see. Eyes
quite naturally first turn to the bonanza
after which the am is named and all
are delighted to learn that the BullfrOg
is getting bigger and better with every
shot fired. The high grade streak shows
no signs of diminishing and the pile of
sacked ore is Il sight for sore eyes.
The owners of the HaZeltine prop
erty keep working away and that with a
vim that is not equallcd by the loca-
tors of my other property in this dis
trict. They are besieged by persons
who claim they want to purchase, but
no offer has so far been entertained.
The owners have demonstrated that
they have Il mine and all that they need
now is a mill to make them Il fortune.
John McMullin owEs the HOmestake
group to the north of the llaZeltine and
it is a most tlattering prospect. An
open cut on the vein shows Il strong tis-
sure hat horns and assays well. Other
places on the ledge are equally 1atter-
ing in results. A company with capital
would make the Homestake a mine in
short order. The owner is always on
the ground and is working it every day
which is positive evidence of his faith
in the property.
To the south and west of the Hazel
ton lies the Golden Scepter, a property
on which there is still another good
showing. In fact this entire part of the
district is highly mineralized and is de-
serving of more attention than it is at
present receiving.

been augmented since the pit has been
producing good results.
