Mills for Bullfrog.

Bullfrog will soon have stamp mills
in operation. One OF the largest is
to be erected at once by the Gold
Bar company. 1t will have 40
stamps and will be completed and in
running order within eight months.
Another one is to be erected by the
Bullfrog Mining Company and it will
probably be a custom mill. Messrs.
Haven and Sawyer of San Francisco
we're at Rhyolite last week looking
over the ground with a view to get
ting a line on the probable tonnage
OF ore that would be available for a
big mill. The Bullfrog mine alone,
will keep a good many stamps going.
r. w. Gorrill of San Francisco was
also in the Bullfrog district recently
arranging for the building of a Gus
tom mill. Curtis Mann will be asso.
ciated with Mr.. Gorriil in the enter.
prise. Mr.. Gorrill has large inter.
ests in the Bullfrog section and is q
stakeholder in the Indian Springs
Water Company.

Tom Keane received word this
week that an important strike had
been made near the Keane Springs
in Funeral range by J.. E. White and
Dale Gilbert, two well known pros
pectors. They have located a ten
foot vein that can be traced on the
surface for $500 feet. Fine speci-
mems Of free gold rock were found on
the surface. White and Gilbert had
been out prospecting since March,
but refused to locate any ground
without a showing on it. Upon trac.
ing a ten foot vein on the surface o.
this property they decided it was
just what they had been looking fol

Mitigation over the DeLamar.

The Brooklyn Eagle, ia a recent
issue, contained a news article giving
the details of an injunction suit pend
ing in the supreme court of New
York, wherein Samuel w. Enrich is
plaintiff and Hugh J.. Grant defen-
dant and which is of interest to Ne.
vadans. 1t deals with the sale of
the De Lamar mines near Phoebe in
eastern Nevada, to Capt, De Lamar
in 1902 and we quote from the article
as follows:
"1u 1902 a syndicate was formed
to purchase and develop the De La.
maj mines in eastern Nevada. Mr.,
Enrich agreed to sell one-fourth OIL
the stock corporation for $3.50, 900,
with the understanding that what,
ever the corporation stock became
worth above par was to be his. Al
the time of the deal with Grant, tn,
stock was selling at 80 1-3 per cen
premium and Enrich agreed will
him that he should have 800, 00t
worth Of stock at par, on condition
that Grant would carry Enrich for
$50, 900 worth of stock until the poo
was dissolved.
Recently Grant demanded pay
ment for the $50, 600 worth Of stool
and on Ehrich's refusal to pay an,
insisting that Grant carry the stool
for him, the latter advertised it 70
sale at public auction.
Thereupon Enrich obtained the in
junction. During the course Of tn
argument in the lower court, it wa
developed that at one time the synd
cate interests were selling at so pc
cent premium, 50 that grant had
profit Of $50, 900 on his subscription
The interests are now selling at pal
Grant admitted that he was to carr

that no time was specified.

A Terrible Mistake.

A well-known young mining man
of Goldfeld, desiring to take advan-
tage of the low prices that prevail
in the up to date stores Of Tonopah,
visited this city Monday to make
some purchases. He was accom-
panied by his sister and among the
places visited by them, was a large
dry goods store on Main street. He
purchased a pair Of gloves for his
sweetheart and the sister bought a
pair of hose for herself.
But the clerk happened to get
them mixed and the explosion came
when the sweetheart opened the
package and found that it contained
a long pair Of silk stockings. She
blushed. Then she opened a dainty
little sw~eet-sceGted note and read
the following tender lines.
II am sending you a little present.
Oh, how | wish that 40 other hands
than mine would ever be permitted

STRUCK OIL.
Residents of BuIlfrog Still Ex-
cited Over TIE Find.

Interest continues undated in the
new oil fields at Indian creek, south
of Bullfrog. People are hurrying to
the scene of the excitement from the
Bullfrog district on the north and
from Las Vegas on the south, and all
are making locations. OF course 10,
Gators are getting as close to the
original location Of Whalen and Lind
say as possible. Thousands of acres
have been taken up. One party Of
p~rospectors from Bullfrog located
nine sections. II, however, there is
oil at Indian Greek at all the posi-
bilities will be almost limltless, as the
acreage Of land that is like that upon
which the original location was made
is vast.
The Bullfrog Miner says w. S.
Saxton, Tom McCabe and Louis
Briant returned to town from Indian
Greek on Tuesday, The latter two
gentlemen were sent south by Bull
frog people when the oil excitement
first started, accompanied by Messrs,
Prudden and Cohen, and they were
able to make several choice locations.
Messrs. Saxton and McCabe have
had more or less experience in oil
fields and the former has made OF
quite a study.
