Dr. s. A. Whitney, who has been oper-
ating his mill at CsceolG on ore from the
Black Horse district, is up from camp
So impressed with what is being done in
that country is the doctor that he de-
cided, during his absence, to resume work
at his own properties near Osceola. He
now is confident that, by gaining greater
depth in his own ground, by getting down
into the solid formation, he can make his
own ground highly productive. A new
tunnel has been started for the purpose
stated. The mineral belt the doctor de-
clares, has now been absolutely proven up
for a distance of fifteen miles. and he is
sanguine that the region is going to en-
Joy one of the greatest booms ever known
in Nevada gold fields.
