The .Iannnry.

Goldfeld is greatly interested in the
prospective new 10-stamp min which
the January people are about to erect.
1t is stated that the management is
weary of sacking and sorting ore, and
have about concluded that their ore can
be more proftably worked by a mill of
their own. On the property there is
sufficient ore blocked out on the various
levels to keep a mill busy for two
two years, and this without taking into
consideration the ore bodies that are
yet to be encountered on the lower lev
els.
For some time past the January COM
pany has been shipping three carloads
of ore weekly, some of which have run
very high in gold, and, in addition, has
been sending about rs tons per day to
a mill at Columbia, which averages $50
per ton net.

A oke of Esteem.

Professor Ross will probably leave
tomorrow for Tonopah to take his posi-
ton with the Tonopah Banking Corpor-
alton. The teachers decided to attest
their good will toward the retiring prin-
cipal and yesterday presented him with
a handsome Elk pin set with diamonds.
The professor was taken unawares and
blushed deeply when one of the fair
school marms presented him with the pin
and made a speech wishing him every
success in his new field of labor. When
Prof. Ross regained composure he said
words could not express his feelings
over the token of esteem he had re-
ceived, and said that as the time drew
near it became all the harder to part
with old associates and leave the school
where he had spent many happy days

Men OF Nerve Needed.

There was a time not many years
ago when few mining men visited or
cared to visit the counties along the
Nevada-C California line owing to their
remoteness from avenues of travel or
transportation, but great discoveries
like those of Tonopah and Goldfeld are
bound to attract men to almost my
quarter Of the globe; but ever these
great strikes will not keep the great
army of mining men supplied with pros
poets and mines.
This considerable army of mining
men that we see travelling every mining
section of the tactic slope, are of a
kinds and characters, says the Inyo
Independent. There are those few
who are in quest of only large prop
eaties and those of a developed char
acter m the one hand, and the man
of limited means who hooes to find a
prospect of sufficienu m. to Justify

class and those more nearly approach
ing his class than the influential expert,
are the pioneers in any new country
and should not be despised. All mines
do not show their true colors on the
surface. Take the history of the great
Mizpah vein of Tonopah. 1t is a fact
that the surface showing after several
months work was not sufficient to JUS.

that is, in the opinion of three certain
experienced mining men.
Experience teaches the expert eau
tion and sometimes this caution is exer-
cised to his sorrow. Ignorance often
makes fools rush in where angels fear
to tread" and sometimes, it must be
admitted, to their sorrow likewise.
But after all we need men of less skill
and more nerve in any new section, and
his is often the greatest reward.

WANT A
BIG SUM
Jumbo Mining Company Sues
John McKane for a Quarter
Of a Million.

Suit has been entered in the District
Court of the First Judicial District of
Nevada, in Esmeralda county, by the
Jumbo Mining Company, to recover the
sum of $3.50, 900 from John McKane and
associates. The plaintiff alleges that
it was damaged to that amount by
reason of the manner in which the Nc
Kane party worked their lease No. s
last year. The company claims that
tn. leasers violated the terms and pro-
visions Of the lease. One of the charges
in the complaint is hat the levels were
not fifty feet apart. By measuring
from the mouth of one of the drifts,
where two or three feet of the ceiling
has caved, it appears to be but forty
nine feet between levels, and Key Pitt
man, representing the defendants, says
this should cut no figure, especially in
view of the fact that the company ac-
cepted royalties from the lessees at all
times. Many outsiders, in discussing
the matter among mining circles, APP
pear to think that the suit will bring
forth a general cleaning of house linen
on the public wash line. Though as yet
the full gist of the complaint is not
known it is generally thought that the
Taylors will bring into the court their
old grievance that McKane, while
president of the Jumbo, gave unto him
self a lease on the company's property,
and that he took advantage to favor
himself at the company's expense.

MASONIC
DISTRICT
A Splendid Showing in This
District and Mills are to be
Erected.

"The owners of the Pittsburg group
Of claims in Masonic are preparing to
erect a stamp mill and the leasers ex-
pect to combine anddo likewise" Thus
spoke j. M. Bryan Of Lorena in the
Briggs House, Carson, to a representa-
tive Of the News. Mr.. Bryan, in com
pany with j. S. Phillips and Caleb
Dorsey, recently sold the celebrated
J%ump-up-Joe mine in Masonic to Loose
brothers Of Bodie and Utah, receiving
a portion of the 350, 600 shares of stock
in the company, besides acash c%onsidera-
ton. The three men are owners of the
Pittsburg, which followed the Jump-up-
Joe as a shipping producer. Two OF the
leases are now shipping and the returns
average in the neighborhood of $500.
All the ore goes through Carson to the
Western Ore Purchasing company at
Reno. Mr.. Bryan says that the ship
ping and smelling charges amount to
nearly $50 a ton, and it is the intention
of the claim owners and leasers to keep
the ore on the dumps until the two con
templated mills are erected. Lorena
the town of Masonic district, has al
ready a population of 100, and boasts of
two weekly papers, the Ledge and
Pioneer. When spring opens a big
rush is anticipated, as the showing is a
splendid one and all indications are for
permanency and increase in values as
depth is attained. The winter is not SO
severe on Masonic mountain as is gen
orally believed, although at present the
snow is in places forty feet deep, while
in other places the ground is bare. Ma
sonic mountain is well timbered with
pinon wood. while water is very plenti-
full. With better roads, or better still,
a railroad, Masonic will become a great
assistant to Carson city, which IS its
present shipping point, although efforts
are being made to divert the trade to
Wabuska.

VIII Not Build.

Alonzo Trip, of the Tonopah rail
road, is quoted as follows by a San
Francisco paper: "0ur company has
decided not to continue the extension
from Goldfeld to Bullfrog," said Mr..
Trip. "We may work on this line
later, but at present the development
in Bullfrog does not to my mind war
rant the expenditure of 81, 0O0, 900
which the extension would cost. Other
roads are going in there and the coun-
try could not support many competing
lines"
When seer by a BONANZA represent
alive yesterday he said that the above
is correct, and that his company will
not extend the road south Of Goldfeld
at present.

FLORENCE Sims.

Another shipment, the second for
February, was forwarded to the West
ern Ore Purchasing Company's plant at
Miller's by the Florence Mining Com
pany Of Goldfeld last Saturday. 1t
consisted of 40 tons Of extra high grade
ore. The four forty ton ore bins in
which the ore will be stored for the
sampler, is about completed. The
machinery for the new sampler is ex-
pected to be shipped from Chicago by
the latter part Of this month and will
come in car lots; by the time it ar
vries the foundation and frame work
will be completed and the work of in
stalling the machinery will be rushed
