GOLD CENTER TUNNEL

Gold Center tunnel, Bullfrog district,
is now in 2S0 feet. Another shift of
miners will be put at work in order 10
drive the big tunnel faster. The Tono-
pah-Goldfield Trust company, of Gold
Center, Nevada, who have the manage
ment of Gold Center Water & Mills,
Ltd, are calling for bids for a COM
plete air compressor and power drills
to be run by a fifty horse power gaso-
line engine. This will be one of the
first large power plants to be installed
in the Bullfrog district, and will enable
to drive the tunnel ahead at the rate
of 60 to 80 feet a week. 1t is estimated
that the cost of the plant when COM
pleted and in operation will be between
$12, 600 and $4,000. The object of this
tunnel is to cross several lodges which
outcrop on the surface which give from
milling to high grade values. The COM
pany owning a very large water right
will enable them to mine and mill ore
of the value of 81 a ton at a handsome
profit. Financially the treasury of the
corporation is in a very fine condition.

OPERATOR SHOWS
FAITH IN BULLFR0G

W. F. Kendrick came in from the
Bullfrog by auto q few days ago on his
return to Denver. After a careful and
extended investigation Of the mining
openings offered throughout the district.
Mr.. Kendrick has extended his opera
ton from the Goldheld section into
Bullfrog. where 1t is understood he has
identified himself with the fortunes of
the D~iamondfeld Bullfrog Mining COM
pany. which holds FIVE full claims or
one hundred acres near Montgomery
mountain. Mr.. Kendrick had anly en-
couraging words for the situation. and
among other things said: IT am thor
oughly satisfied after a careful survey
of the whole field with my investment
in the Diamondfeld Bullfrog at Rhyo-
lite. Unless all the evidence is wrong
we have a winner. and 1t is my purpose
to see that the funds for proving it's
merits shall not be wanting. Upon my
return to Denver / shall enter actively
into this work and not let up untii
others agree with me in our estimate
of that property. 1t is an excellent
property. and only needs the develop
ment that has been given its rich neigh
bors like the Montgomery Shoshone.
But for that matter there are many ex-
cellent properties proved and improved
throughout the Bullfrog district. and I
am convinced with the coming in of the
new railroad from the south too much
can hardly be looked for. A visitor to
these camps must DON or later be
prepared to expect the marvellous "a
values as well as in extent of territory"
1t is Mr.. Hendricks purpose to re-
turn soon to Goldfeld. whence he will
in person or by agents manage his in
~terests.

PROMINENT RAILROADER
A VISITOR IN G0LDFIELD

d. s. Taggart. the new district freight
and passenger agent of the Southern
Pacific railroad for this district, made
his first visit to the gold fields this
week. to better acquaint himself with
the territory tributary to his line. Mr..
Taggart was appointed to his present
responsible position from h Salt Lake
Office. and came to Reno. as ~headquar-
ters. u~nacauainted with the growing re-
sources OF Nevada This trip has
opened his eyes and he sees a wonder
full future for the state, especially for
the southern country. The new traffic
agent experienced some of the incon-
v~eniences travellers in this section are
subjected to in the matter of inadequate
Pullman accommodations. For the past
few months the Pullman accommoda-
tons for this section Ia been entirely
inadequate. not affording half the equip
ment for which there is constant de-
mand, and it has been cause for bitter
complaint. The railroad authorities are
either ignorant of the heavy travel to
this section or are entirely Indifferent
to their patrons needs and wants. or
there would be another Pullman car at
tached to the regular trains. 1t is
hoped that MIR. Taggart will assist in
securing the accommodations needed.
Travel is likely to grow heavier as the
season advances and only a~ccentuate
the abuses of the present.
Mr.. Taggart has risen to his present
position of district freight and passen-
ger agent through his own efforts en-
tirely, starting his railroad career in
the humblest position. He is in line for
the highest positions the company can
give and time will probably see him at
the top.

secured a purchaser according to his
contract. Jones brought the present suit
in the circuit court of the United States
in October, 1904, claiming a one-half
interest in the profits, which would
amount to something like $250,000. The
case was tried in January of this year.
Key Pittman of Tonopah appeared for
Patrick and Thomas E. Haven of San
Francisco onducted the case for Jones.
The trial of the case consumed a week.
Most of the prominent mining men OF
Goldfeld and Tonopah were called as
witnesses. On Mondey Judge Hawley
decided the case in favor of Patrick.
Much local interest has been aroused
over this case by reason of the magni-
tude of the prize sought by Jones and
on account of the personal following of
the respective litigants. The Combina-
ton Mining company pays regular divi-
dends of $4,000 per month, and none of
the stock is for sale at any price. If
Jones had won the suit he would hav
been a richer man today by at least
400 900. Mr.. Pittman received the
news of his great legal victory while in
New York where he has been for some
time on business.

The copper possibilities of the Cuprite

AS a result of the development thus far
carried on, it is stated at the offices OF

been exposed for 900 feet. In some
places this lode assumes the great
width of 12O feet while at others 1t
pinches to 5 feet. Repeated assays
show values of thirty per cent copper,
thirty dollars in gold and fifty dollars

of the Big Strike and the seven claims
in the Red Top group, will incorporate
their holdings tomorrow for 100000
shares, par value $1.00.
Early next week leases will be con-
tracted on the discovery and adjoining
claims. None but the most responsible
will be given leases. The ground al
lowed will be 100 feet by 600 on a 20
per cent basis. Last Wednesday while
doing assessments on Red Top the great
discovery claim, at a depth of five feet
a 6-foot ledge was opened, which shows
values that exceed 500 with 20 and 30
ounces of silver. This last strike proves
beyond any pe~radventure the stability
of the big dykes that drive through the
country. Kennedy says that he has
over a hundred applications for leases
and in about ten days will sign con-
tracts for the responsible applicants.
J. E. Mclaughlin, brother of F. II.
Mclaughlin who has made the sensa-
tional discovery in Fairview, are doing
much prospecting on their IL claims
which lie o~ne-fourth mile north of the
Red Top strike. Everywhere these two
well known men and pioneers of Gold
field nave been panning big values on
ton. These are the Goldfield men that
sampled the Kennedy strike. They took
a fair sample across the ledge for 10
feet which gave a return of $50; a fair
sample for 35 feet across Melted sS7.So,
which gives a fair idea of the extent OF
his remarkable discovery. In every
direction from the camp men are busy
doing their location work. There have
been absolutely no blanks in pannlng
and assaying. Mornings are being
made here in camp that are phenomenal
the men refusing to say where they
came from for the reason that they want
to be secure in their location work. There
will surely be some sensational strikes
made here during the preliminary loca-
ton work. Strikes have been made On
the Red Cloud and Newsboy claims.
