AVALON BOOMING!

You may not know that since most of the ground on Seven Mile
Beach at Avalon, New Jersey, has been purchased by a syndicate of
Atlantic City capitalists, among whom re John l." Young, ex-Judge
Joseph Thompson, George and James Bew, and many Others of Allan
tic City, extensive Improvements are being made. Contracts have
been awarded for a mile and a half of new graveed streets and ave
nues, and the work is now progressing. Also contracts for 3 miles of
cement concrete curbing have been made, and as soon as the weather
permits, three miles of cement sidewalks will be constructed. More
than 1000 feet of water pipes have been laid this winter. The Bor-
ough Council is now having plans and specifications drawn tor an ell
ectrc light plant, and at least six good cottages are being built this
Spring.
Remember that Avalon is a Municipal Borough that is practically
out of debt, its waterworks being worth as much as its bonded debt.
Avalon has no floating debt, and has a cash balance in the treasury.
Taxes are lower at Avalon than at any other seaside resort in Cape
May County.
The Avalon Improvement Company are now offering the stock of
a new company to be known as Avalon Summit improvement Com
pany, for the purchase of section of Seven Mile Beach, which is the
highest ground on any of the island beaches in Cape May County.
Sand hills on this tract are IS feet above the level of high water. Long
Reach Thorofare runs within 100 yards of these sand hills. All along
this thorofare boathouse lots have been laid out. The fact that any
one can take a boat a few hundred feet from the highest and best lots,
will always be a leading attraction to this tract of ground.
While this is the very best piece of seashore property ever offered
to investors, we are offering it "a a price that would have been cheap
20 years ago, when the other beach resorts in Cape May County were
just starting.
If you have missed all the opportunities of the past to invest in
seashore property, do not fail to embrace this one.

Dear Sir-In answer to the question
contained in your letter of the lOthlnst
to Mr.. Copp. we would say that accord
ing to the general rule for computing
time from a given day, the day OF the
act from which the time counted is ex-
cluded. Under this rule, therefore, the
ninety days given by the Nevada law
for doing the location work on claim
would be counted as ninety full days
after the day of the location itself, The
date of location would not count as the
first day, but the next day would be the
first. Very truly yours,

MINES AND MINING
Bullfrog, Searchlight and
Other Districts

john Brockman, one OF the chief
owners OF the great Commonwealth
mine near Bisbee, Arizona, and also one
of the most successful mine operators in
the United States, has bought the Du-
plex mine and the Good Hope at
Searchlight.
Beatty Bullfrog Miner last week issued
a supplement containing the full text OF
Judge Breen's decision in the famous
Montgomery-Sho grub stake case.
The decision is IA comprehensive one
and will be of great interest to mining
men throughout the West.
According to report from Needles,
California, the smeter at that point Is
about ready TO do business. The
Needles Eye states that a carload OF
lead ores from the Lead Mountain
Mining Company's property near Bag
dad. San Bernardino county, had been
received at the smelter now known as
the Arizona Mexican smelter.
Beatty Miner is informed that Dwight
4 I.aughlan, of Los Angeles, have ship
ped a mill Of 80 tons capacity, which
will be erected on the Amargosa river,
between Gold Center and South Bull
frog. \ cyanide plant will be located
there also.

MONTGOMERY Y-SHOSHONE
Effect of Judge Breen's De-
cision

Beatty Bullirog Miner, in comment
ing on Judge Breen's decision in favor
of Bob Montgomery, says:
Litigation having terminated, the
Montgomery-Shoshone Mines Co. will
feel safe in employing greater force Of
men and making high grade ore ship
ments by freight teams.
They will extend the shaft to 400 feet
on the Shosbone and 800 feet on the
Polaris, and block out great bodies OF
ore.
They will build a mill of $50 stamps
near Beatty to work the ore advantage
ously, and construct a tramway down
to il.
All these operations will employ 4
great force OF workmeR. and the rail
roads will come to Beatty within few
months, attracted by natural business
from the greatest mines in Nevada.
Ii means that Beatty will be the cen
ter of industrial and mining activity
henceforth, iostered by the two greatest
gold mines in the world.
The decision will discourage the efforts
OF adventurers who profit by the sweat
! from other mems brows. 1t will place
/ honesty at premium and stamp the
seal OF condemnation on trickery.

ENJOYABLE AFFAIR
Charming Social Event Last
Night

One of the most successful social
events that has occurred in Las Vegas
was the dance given last night by Mrs.
j. o, Mcintosh. The invitation was
general and many prominent citizens
who never before attended dance in
Las Vegas graced the occasion with their
presence, thus attesting the popularity
of Mr.. and Mrs. Mcintosh. Aplin's
Hall, on Main street, was the scene of
the gathering, and the large room was
taxed to its utmost capacity for each
and every dance until an unusually
late hour.
Anticipating an evening OF rare pleas
ure, the guests began to arrive early,
and long before nine o'clock the dance
was on in earnest. Mrs. Mcintosh was
ably assisted in reception, introduction
and floor management by Mrs. VI. c.
Thomas and Messrs. Bailey Johnson,
J. F, Dobbs and Lloyd Smith, and
everything ran smoothly and harmo-
niously throughout the entire evening.
Between the dances delicious cham
pagne punch of the first quality was serv-
ed. Mr.. 81. Thackery presided over this
refreshment and proved himself an artist
in mixing as well as serving the seduc-
, tive beverage. The gentlemen's buffet,
which was arranged exclusively by Mr..
Mcintosh, was also a popular feature OF
the evenings entertainment.
The Arizona Club Orchestra, 1Iessrs
Upwall, discoursed excellent music, and
/ it ~Qs two o'clock this morning before
the merry throng would permit them tc
play the fin2! waltz; and even that late
hour saw we'll filled floor Every one
was there ION pleasure bent" and it is
doubtful if there are apy who did not
| find it to their hearts content.
Mrs, Mcintosh received congratula
tions from all sides for the unqualified
success of the event, before her guests
departed for home to snatch an hour ol
two's sleep before the dawn,
Among those present from out o
town was Mr. G, O, Whittemore, whC
arrived on the evening train.

sumo Presidency After
Short Vacation.

PARIS, April 13-General Matos,
leader of the last revolution against
General Castro, in an interview today
on the subject of the latter's retire.
inent from the Presidency of Venezuela,
said that Castro would not have aban-
doned his position unless absolutely
sure of being able to regain it at will.
Natos added that Castro probably de-
sires to take vacation in his native
Andes, and that the acting President.
Vicente Gomez, will serupulously carry
out his instructions and give up the
Presidency when requested to do so.
The attitude Of France. toward Vene-
zuela has not changed in consequence
of General Castro's retirement.
CARACAS, Venezuela, Tuesday (via
WiIleRIstad, Island of Curacao, April
13)-General Castro yesterday trans
ferred the Presidency of Venezuela to
Vice President Gomez. In an address
which he made on that occasion Gen.
eral Castro said that his retirement was
due to ill-health. but he did not say
whether it was temporary or perma-
nent. It is generally understood, how
ever, that his retirement will last about

MITCHELL HOPEFUL
OF A SETTLEMENT
Believes That the Operators
and Miners Will Yet
Agree.

NEW YORK, April 13.-President Mitch
ell of the Miners Union was busy today
preparing to close his headquarters here
and return to Indianapolis tomorrow. All
the members of the general scale commit
tee have left for their homes in the an
thracite regions and will not be called to-
gether again until after the operators re-
ply to the propositions submitted TO them
by the miners yesterday. In the face of
the pessimistic expressions President
Mitchell is hopeful of peaceful ending
of the controversy with the operators.
He believes the operators will make an
answer which will permit the continuance
of negotiations, instead of abruptly ending
them.
PHILADELPHIA, April 13.-There was
but little hope for industrial peace in the
anthracite region today among the men
most interested in the coal situation. One
and all seemed convinced that nothing
short of an unexpected intervention Of
some sort can now prevent "a coal strike.
or rather can prevent the declaration on
the part of the coming mine workers
convention that strike exists.
