sunk to a depth of $50 feet and as soon
as 500 feet is reached prosecuting will

The work of sinking still continues on
this promising property, the 1900 foot
mark having been past it is now the
intention of the company to crosscut

kept busy and it is largely rumored that
it will soon be put on a paying dividend
basis.

The Board of Directors of the Tono-
pah Mining Company ave declared d
quarterly dividends of rs per cent and
an extra dividend of 10 per cent pay
able on October 3Oth. The Tonopah
Mining Company is one of the greatest

comes to the dividend part, it has them
all guessing.

The additional ten stamps have been
added to the Midway mill and every

gotten up and the people of Tonopah
will again neal the joyful sound of the

Nevada ores.
WEST END.
Superintendent Fred Corkill states
that the West End never looked better,
and high grade ore is being shipped
every day. At present the company
is combining it's work to the $50 and 40S
foot levels, and drifting and stopping on
these levels is extensively carried on
and the ore extracted as fast as the
railroad can haudle it. About "a men
are regularly employed.

o. A. Pembertom, who has full charge
of the Home stated to a Bonanza repre-

have been cut during the last months

the stringers will make at a greater

and, If the company can start out with
$50, 900 or 800, 900 in the treasury the
investor stands a much better chance
of realizing handsome profits from his
venture than he would If the company
had but $50 or $4,000 to go on; for
a mine cannot be made by the expendt-
ture of so small an amount of money.
In many cases, where a mining com-
pany has gigantic holdings of acknowl-
edged merit and value. SIS a share is a
modest sum to ask for its treasury
stock, and such stock. if all goes well,
should soon be selling at $40 a share.
The "cent-a-share' bait is intended
for suckers, for poor people who might
be able to squeeze $25 or $50 from their
scanty earnings and savings. but no
keen, successful business man, with
5000 or $780, 600 to invest. would nibble
at it for a minute. There is hardly any
thing that is good because 1T is cheap.
On the contrary. ii is generally dear at
any price. The great successes that
nave been made in mining stock ven

medium of one or two-cent stocks. and
it is the general rule that the higher
the price. in a thoroughly good and re
liable the greater the returns
have been.
Companies with small but ya.Laole
holdings cannot incorporate 'or a mil
lion and ask IS a share for their treas
ury stock; but, as a rule, they cannot
meet with ultimate success unless they
get at least twenty or twenty five cents
for their treasury shares. In any case,
the price asked should be on L ratio ac-

THE BULLFROG DISTRICT


Five hundred feet of drifting on tbs
Eclipse ledge nave failed to define ths
extent of this remarkable milling prop.
osition. From the junction of the
Eclipse tunnel and shaft, a drift has
been run north 21S feet and a drift
south 277 feet. exposing values all the
way, and milling ore is shown nearly
every foot of this distance, with ore ex.
posed in the breast of eithe drift. -Four
crosscuts have penetrated the ore. the
one which has been run from wall tc
wall, showing a width of SO feet OF
solid ore. None of the other crosscuts
defined the width OF the ledge, although
the shortest of the other three is ten
feet. The development has defined an
ore deposit 495 feet in length. from 10
to 80 feet in width. and from 100 to $50
feet in depth, the depth varying with
the slope of the hill.
In both the Eclipse n Tramp shafts,
shipping ore has been encountered and
from the former considerable ore has
been sacked and is now on the dump.
The raise, which is now being made
from the south drift to connect with
the bottom of the Tramp shaft, shows
a fine streak of shipping ore, together
with high grade, milling values through
out.
A FIFTY THOUSAND DEAL
A $4,000 deal was closed on Monday
Of this week by the Rhyolite Mining &
Brokerage company. of which L. o. Ray
is president. G. b. Poore and Edwin
Gearhart. of Scranton, Pa, have pur-
chased the mineral rights of nine claims,
situated south of, and adjacent to b.
nanza mountain. On a portion of these
claims is located the Bullfrog TOWNSHIP.
The claims include the Goodhope and
Goodhope Fraction, which were held by
Messrs. Lindsay, Walsh, Bevis and Clay
ton; and the Annetta, Margaret, Flora.
Anna, Daisy, Esther and Ida, held by
j. C. Thoma, Carl Stoddard and G. z.
Saxton.
A payment of 10000 was made Mon
day night and the balance of s40,0 900 is
due in twenty days from that date.
Messrs. Poore and Gearhart represen.
substantial eastern interests, and they
pi oppose to sink a deep shaft at least
500 feet, and to start work at an carly
date. A company will be incorporated
anG it is expected that the first allot-
ment of stock will be placed in the east
at so cents a share.
LICE HARRIS
Development work is going rapidly
forward at the Lige Harris ard it is
the intention of the present management
to open up the property as speedily as
possible. Under former arrangements
between 400 and 500 feet of work, a
great part of which appears to have
been misdirected, was performed. A
15-foot vein carrying fluor spar and
sugar quartz with a metallic content
which has gone as high as $50 to the
ton in gold has been exposed by open
cut on the surface. The pay streak
seems to be about four feet in width and
to all appearances carries substantial
values.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1906-10-13

I The present management is continuing
a shaft which was started near this
ore body. The shaft is now down about
so feet and IL is the intention to cross
cut the vein which appears to be pitch
ing east at this level. The same char
acter of material as exposed in the open
cut on the surface is now appearing in
the shaft. In the various other work.
ings scattered over the property no i'm
portant discoveries were made. and 1T
is the purpose of Supt. Stevenson to
concentrate his energy where the ore is
known to exist.
BONANZA MOUNTAIN GOLD
The crosscut from the 15O-foot level
in No. 4 shaft is being continued west
ward to cut the ledge.
DENVER ANNEX
The drift tunnel on the Louisville re-
mains in ore at 220 feet. The tunnel
has almost reached a point under the
summit of the hill.
LADD MOUNTAIN
The new shaft on the. Ladd Mountain
Mining company's property is down only
10 feet but has cut several stringers of
quartz and manganese which give very
encouraging paintings.
LITTLE BULLrRoG
The Little Bullfrog shaft on Ladd
mountain has reached a depth of 1925
feet, and is now showing considerable
ledge matter, including quartz and spar
with small values. At the 200-foot,
crosscuts will be run. Superintendent
James Gaffney is confident that at that
depth something substantial will be un-
covered. The property is equipped with
a within.
Three months ago 1t was promised
that the Skookum-Bullfrog company
would take out a carload of ore and
ship 1t on the first train that would pull
out of the Bullfrog district. That car
load of ore, 20 tons, is now in the sacks
and arrangements will shortly be made
to pack the same dow the mountain
side to Skookum Siding, where a sid
has been constructed. This COM
pany was promoted by the Rhyolite Min
ing & Brokerage company, and those
who have followed the promotions of
company testify that the company
is in the habit of fulfilling it's promises.
BuLLFRoG NORTH STAR
The ore body in the drift of the tun-
mel No. 2 is improving steadily, and the
breast is all in ore which gives fair
paintings. The miners are now at work
on a station and a winze will be started
next week. Further prospecting has
disclosed another ledge on a line with
the blacksmith shop, where good pan
ave been taken. Some work will
be lone on this new discovery. The
blacksmith shop is to be moved to the
lower tunnel and this tunnel will
be driven ahead to explore the whole
property; and a raise is contemplated to
meet the winze from Nc. 2 tunnel Cars
and rails are being installed and the
property will be vigorously opened up.
The stock will be listed on the Sth insr.
