Golden Arrow Looking We'll.

Last Sunday d. Goodrich and Antoine
Sanguinetti of Tonopah went over to
Golden Arrow on visit to the Page
brothers, pioneer deaf mutes, who are
successfully engaged in mining at that
place, and remained over night. They
are loud in their praise of that district
and predict for it great future. The
Page brothers have sunk shaft, which
has reached depth of so feet, on their
propert, to tap large ledge, and they
confidently expect to strike it rich
within 40 days. The walls of the ledge
are well defined, as smooth as glass
and as straight as an arrow. The vein
is about 10 feet wide. This claim is on
Dead Horse Hill and there are about &c
claims surrounding it but none are
developed to the extent of those owned
by the Page boys, who have six claims.

New Bank for Wonder.

W. B. Ligon, capitalist of the
southern mining country, who for some
time past has been connected with the
Nye & Ormsby County Bank at Tono-
pah, left Reno last Monday, according
to the Gazette, for Wonder, the new
Churchill county mining district, where
he intends to start a bank. He was
accompanied on his trip to Wonder by
H. j. Amigo, D. M Owens and A. H.
Champion. The party left in large
auto and went direct from Reno to
Fairview and from there to Wonder.
Amigo is one of the principal owners of
the Missouri Wonder claim in Wonder
Mining District, and recently returned
from Salt Lake, where he sold over
$28, 900 worth of stock for his company.
He went to Wonder for the purpose of
settling up and making the final pay
ment for the mining property. The
new bank of Wonder promises to be a
great success and the mine owners and
other residents of that district will be
glad to learn that it is to be opened.
The town of Wonder is growing very
rapidly, and at the present time Fair
view is the nearest town containing
bank.

The past week has seen the organiza-
tion of an exceedingly strong copper
mining company which will operate in
the Greenwater district. The surface
indications of the ground which includes
A claims and 2 fractions, is SO fine that
the success of the company is certain.
The new organization, reference to
which is made elsewhere in this issue,
lis known as the Greenwater Amalga-
mated Copper Mining Company. The
officers are all local men and their
prominence assures every guarantee as
to the high merits of the holdings.
Judge j. G. Campbell is president, and
S. H. Gillette vice-pesident and general
manager, w. A. Shockley Of the Nye

Alonzo Trip is member of the direc-
torate. Judge Campbell's reputation
for conservativeness and his marked
unwillingness to lend his name to any
thing unless highly meritorious, would
be in itself the highest recommendation
to investors even if the surface show
ings of the property was not so good.

Change in Management.

Mr.. Chandler, former manager of the
California Tonopah mine, has been
succeeded by Jno. M. Haley, a well
known mining engineer. Mr.. Haley
informed the BONANZA reporter that
the development work of the mine is
confined to the mineral zone south of
the shaft on the Maggie 0. The night
shift in the south drift on the Ala
penetrated the footwall of an ore shoot
which has every indication of being
nigh grade ore. The samples were
given to local assayer and the results
are awaited with a great deal of ex-
pectancy by all concerned

Harry Chickering has just returned
from trip to Beatty to look after the
property he is interested in at that
point, and has expressed himself as
highly pleased. The property is known
as the Banner and adioins the May
flower and the Florence. So good do
the surface showing seem that Phila-
delphia syndicate have bought the en-
tire treasury stock. 1t is comprised Of
two full claims with 30-foot ledge on
the surface. Assays have been made
across the full length of the ledge and
show an average value OF Sc. At a
depth of 40 feet the values increase to
$40. A very peculiar feature of the
ground is that copper has been en-
countered running as high as per
cent, and Mr.. Chickering expressed
himself as believing that sufficient
quantity of copper will be uncovered to
show a very handsome profit. A new
hoist is on the way and it is expected
that it will be installed in two weeks.
An air compressor will also be put in al
once. The shaft will be sunk 200 feet
before prosecuting is commenced.
Besides Mr.. Chickering, John T. Over
berry, H. G. Mcmahon and c. B. Win,
gate are interested in the property
With the vigorous work planned the
Banner will soon be giving a very
creditable account.

Manhattan Mill Test.

Word has been received from Denver
that the tests being made on Manhat-
tan ores have been highly successful,
the ores proving easily susceptible to
the cyanide process. This will no doubt
be most agreeable news to the Manhat-
tanites as it should mean that it will be
but a short time before the long
promised mill is erected and the facili-
ties afforded for properly treating the
vast volume of ore.

A BONANZA repree entatives had an
opportunity last Thursday night to in
spect the marvels of Vhe underground
workings of the Montana-Tonopah
nine. At the invitation of President
Knox he joined a party going below
gronnd. Besides President Knox there
we're in the party, Mark B. Kerr, Roger
Knox, F. L. Bosqui, John Horgan, S.
R. Moore and Mr.. Nelson. The first
stop was made at the Bird level and the
various drifts and crosscuts were in
spected. The volume of ore in sight on
this level is no doubt beyond the realiza-
ton of the Oldest Tonopah citizen. In
itself the Mcdonald vein is mine. The
South vein is very rich as is also the A.
B. X. vein. The Martha vein runs
through body of oxidized ore of great
depth. The Mcdonald vein is a
mammoth, being first encountered at
about $50 feet and extending down to
to the lowest level some where in
the neighborhood of 900 feet. 1t runs
from line to line and has an average
width of u feet. Through a winze the
party descended to the intermediary
level where the same fine showing was
noticeable. Thence through a second
winze to the fourth level. On this
level great deal of work is being done.
On all parts visited the quantity of
milling ore is fabulous, and intermingled
are fine shoots of high grade shipping
ore. Noseffort so far has been made to
extract these values, as with the erec-
ton of the new mill the milling ore can
be mined and treated at low cost. AS
soon as the mill is in operation ex-
tensive prospecting work will be done
and the high grade and milling ore will
then be sorted and very considerable
saving made. Under the efficient direc-
tion of General Manager Kerr, great
work has been done and no pick has
been driven that has not returned a
profit. Mr.. Kerr has the situation
under perfect control and absolutely no
dead work has been done since he took
hold.
The general tendency of the veins is
to pitch north, although in the oxidized
zones the pitch is towards the south.
There are at present about lat men em-
ployed, working in two shifts. Ex.
tensive stopping work is being done in
large ore bodies Of high values Sc
numerous are the smaller veins that il
is practically impossible to give any
comprehensive idea of their extent.
A tunnel is being run at about 70 feet
this will continue out under the milling
dump and thence to the side of the hill
At the end of the tunnel will be built 9
powder magazine so that the supply Of
powder will be safely stored many hun
dred feet from the mine proper and car
be entered from the tunnel thereby
obviating the necessity of going to th'
surface. The prime object Of thi
tunnel, however, is to save cost il
handling the mill ore on the dump b,
hand. The tunnel, as stated before
will pass directly under the dump ant
a hole will be cut which will allow th
ore to run down into cars. The car
will then be run through the tunnel t
the shaft and hoisted to the surface
On the gallows frame about 35 fee
from the surface will be erected
platform and the car taken off at thi
point and run along trestle and tn
ore dumped into the crushing bins.

THE SPLIT-IOG DRAG.
Its Work Thoroughly Demonstrated
on Road Near DeniSOn.

Great is the split-log drag. It's
worth has been oft demonstrated, but
the greatest test has just been made
on the Denison and Carpenters Bluff
road, where the merits of the device
were demonstrated in a most con-
vincing manner.
The recent rains on this newly
graded piece of road and the heavy
traffic following had the effect of
cutting very deep ruts. Had these
ruts been allowed to remain the next
rain would have filled them with
water and the damage to the road
would have been very great. But
the drags were promptly placed in
operation and the ruts were filled by
the loose dirt thrown out by the
wheels and the surplus was forced
to the center. leaving the road in a
smooth oval shape and in good con-
dition.
Farmers passing along the road
were heard to say that though they
expected much from the drag. they
were not prepared for such an ac-
cOmpliShment as was presented. 1t
did just the needed work. leaving the
hard surfaces undisturbed and throw
ing the soft dirt to the center where
it could be travel-paCked d--Denison
