A New Field for Prospectors.

For virgin ground for the pros .
pector,the country lying between
Ely and Cherry Creek offers
special inducements. This region
has been demonstrated to be rich
in not only gold and silver, but
abounds in copper and lead.
There is an abundance of water
and wood, plenty of game. good
feed for horses, and in a very
short time accessibility to trans
portation, as the Nevada North
ern will run within few miles
of the mountain ranges on either
side of the valley.

WHITE PINE COUNTY. NEVADA. FRIDAY, MARCH Is. 1906
THE DUCK CREEK
LEAD PROPERTIES

The lead properties at Duck
Creek, are causing mining men
to sit up and open their eyes.
AS the ground is almost entirely
owned by Ely residents, it natu-
rally causes considerable elation.
Shipments that have been made
heretofore, have always paid
handsomely. The lead of this
district is almost necessary to sue
ceSSfully operate the smelters
now going in at Ely. The for
nation is said to be the same as
Eureka, and the veins are from
20 to 80 feet wide and can be
traced for six miles on the sur
face. The country is very heav-
ily mineralized, and there is
plenty Of water and timber, hence
mining can be economically pros
ecuted,

Natural Building Material.

We predict that a great many
cement buildings will go up as
soon as the dry weather and the
masons arrive. The hills ada
cent to Ely are formed princi-
pally of natural limestone ce-
ment which sets and hardens TO
almost the consistency of granite
after thorough pudding and
lying up in board moulds. This
material has the advantage of
cheapness combined with dura-
bility. making houses which will
retain heat in the winter and
prove cool in the summer time.
Already several residences and
cellars have been constructed of
this material, which have given
great satisfaction. The fact of
its being fire-proof makes it all
the more desirable.

NJ. Whitehead, manager of the

ture on a stone foundation. A

basement. The building will be
24x6O feet, and two stories in
height. This is only one of a
series of fine structures which
will be erected on Aultman Ave

take time by the fore lock and
profit by the mistakes of our less

NATIONAL BANK

A Washington dispatch of

of the currency has given formal
notice of an application to him
to organize the First National
Bank of Ely, Nevada, with a
capital stock of $4,000. The in
corporators are William Boyce
Thompson, Barton Sewell, Ed
ward Brush, James Phillips Jr.
and w. Hinckle Smith.
This is the bank, mention of
which was made in the last issue
of the News. The quick action
taken by the gentlemen named
as incorporators shows they are
in deadly earnest. Nevada has
few national banks, and Ely can
put feather in her cap as being
selected for the honor.

If the examination of the Ne

chase of controlling interest in

will probably erect a large smell

of the rich gold ores of Tonopah
Gold6eld, Manhattan aud Bull

fux for the treatment of those

STAMPEDE TO
new STRIKE
,re Running into the Thousands
in Gold Uncovered Near Os'
ceoIa...Ledge Traced for
Nearly a Mile

Tuesdays stage from New
bouse, brought the news OF
sensational strike of gold ore
near the old Osceola district. 1t
;s claimed that prospectors have
brought in ore alive with gold,
running into the thousands. Old
miners who have worked in the
district, claim it is nothing more
than has long been predicted,
as the present strike has been
hunted for for a long time, rich
float being plainly in evidence.
One of the properties. it is claim
ed, is tellurium ore, going $50,
S140 and even higher in values
these being figures from grass
roots. A stampede is now on
from the surrounding districts,
Osceola being practically desert
ed. The strike is described as
being 39 miles northeast of Os-
ceola, near Mount Moriah. The
discovery was made about three
days ago, but the isolation OF the
country has debarred the news
from raveling far. The ledges
can be traced for nearly a mile,
It's said. Details are very meager
yet. Several parties have left,
and more have announced their
intention of leaving Ely for the
scene of the excitement.

Ely Not a Poor Mans Camp.

While Ely is one of the best
communities in the state for the
capitalist and business man, at
the present time it is most en-
phatically not Il poor mans
camp. This is not q grass root
proposition. 1t takes money and
time to demonstrate a copper
camp. Smelters and concentra-
ting plants take capital and lots
of it. For a man to cone here
with the intention of entering
business on limited capital the
district is not ripe. In order to
enter business here just at pres
ent, one must either buy or lease
q lot, and Ely real estate costs
money. While the opportuni-
ties are good for great rewards
in all lines of business, still it
requires considerable cash to ell
able one to enter the field. Later
on when store buildings have
been erected, conditions will be
easier. Until lumber and build
ing material arrive, the amount
of. work for laboring men is
mostly restricted to the mines.
Owing to the condition CT the
roads, it is impossible to get in
any appreciable amount of tim
bers for mining purposes, which
tends to keep down the force of
men which would otherwise be
employed With the advent of
good weather things will more
than hum.

Goldfeld, carrying telluride Of
iron is regarded as significant by
mining experts, who say that
with great depth that district is
almost certain to encounter a
great body of tellurium ore which
carries sensational gold values.
Several assayers and mining en-.
gineers have sampled the Great
Bend and all are Of the opinion
that the values are found in a
true tellurium quartz.
