RUSH Is ON TO THE
RAMSEY DISTRICT

Every trail from Virginia City and
vicinity apparently leads to the Ramsey
district. scene of recent high grade min
eral discoveries. and the "sooners' are
rushing in in every conceivable sort or
vehicle. Veterans of the Comstock have
the fever as badly as the veriest tyro in
the mining field and are focking to the
find by the hundreds. Nearly one-third
of the adult population of Virginia City
is now at Ramsey and the rush is still
on. The scene of the find is within a
short distance of the Garavanta ranch
and springs.
News of the discovery has extended
as far east as Chicago and a number of
capitalists from that point are already
on the ground. Among the C~hicagoans
are J. J. Reilly and w. H. Kearney. The
have established a camp and are pre-
pairing to secure either by location or
purchase any acreage which offers fav-
orable mineral Indications. From Vir-
ginia City to the "diggins' the trail
leads through Six-Mile canon and for
the greater portion of the distance is
level and smooth. Two tent saloons, a
restaurant, mercantile establishment
and other business enterprises are do
ing a thriving business and the list of
business houses is growing rapidly.
Lumber is on the ground for the erec-
ton of more substantial buildings and
it will be but a short time before the
townsite is supplied with more COM
modius structures.
Harry Ramsey, Tonopah and Gold
field pioneer, is the man who firt located
ore in the new district. He and his
brother made the original discovery and
are now engaged in proving 1t up. So
far as developed it is holding a fair
average grade and at times assays are
obtained of close to 81 900 in gold to the
ton. The ground on every side of the
Ramsey estate has been taken up and
development work is or in earnest.

ITEMS

Searchlight, New, April "a, 1906.
The richest strike yet made in the i'm
mediate vicinity of town was
ed in the Searchlight Treasure-Gold
shaft yesterday. From the hanging wall
at a depth of about seventy-five feet.
four feet of fine sugar quartz with
chrysocolla thickly disseminated through
it. Fluorite is also evident in the COM
position of the ore. Character of the
ore is similar to that found on the New
Years Gift mine of the Duplex company
not over a thousand feet distant, and
the strike of the ledge being the same,
is necessarily a direct -ontinuation of
the vein that richens the Duplex. The
presence of chrysocolla and iuorite in
the east-west cross-course veins in this
district is proof positive of great depth
and strength and invariably the lodges
widen as they go down. Another strong
argument in favor of lodges of this char
acter is that according to the opinion of
the best biologists in this country no
tably ]. f. Spur in his report on the
geology of the Tonopah district, that
they will achieve a depth at least as
much as the payable outcrop on the sur
face, is long. Van Hise and Kemp also
agree on this theory. Now that 1T is a
fact that on this same vein the pay ore
can be traced for over two miles, there
is no estimating the depth to which this
mine will go.
The strike is one of the most import
ant yet made and the mine being right
in town, the owners having purchased
the mineral rights of the town itself. the
booming and shock of exploding dyna-
mite is heard and felt almost hourly on
our streets and the owners have discov-
cred that the whole town rests on one OF
the richest mines of the district.
President j. N. Hall left this after
noon for Los Angeles with a large sack
of samples of the ore from this new
strike. The assays at present show
values of $3.50 to the ton but it is ex-
pected that upon Mr.. Halls return re-
ports on assays will show even greater
values.

SPLENDID WORK
OF THE RAILROADS

The Transportation lines out of San
Francisco have been doing a grand work
in relieving afflicted people OF the ter
rible earthquake and FIRE that visited
the California metropolis last week
Their first efforts in the way of relief
were to provide transportation for
women who were left destitute as a re-
suit of the catastrophe: then the men
with families were taken care of. The
roads refused to carry able bodied men
because of the need of workmen In the
ruined city. At least two hundred and
fifty thousand persons were given either
free transportation or a cent a mile
rate to any point in the United States
during the week following the holo-
caust.
A great many of these have come to
the mining districts of southern Nevada.
General Superintendent Trip of the
Tonopah & Goldheid road has acted In
cooperation with the Southern Pacific
in this work Of relief. Mr.. Trip came
up from San Francisco Wednesday night
and when the train carrying him
reached Nina he hurried to the ticket
office and placed his 20. K" on all
tickets presented, passing free all
women and granting a cent a mile rate
to the men. His interest in the welfare
of the unfortunate sufferers of the great
rembler and confia grafton was in keep
ing with his public spiritedness and
everyone on the train expressed his or
her thinks for the kindness he had
shown.
The Southern Pacific railroad re-
sponded magnihcently. That road has
done no less than a million dollars worth
of relief work without a cent of reim-
bursement. 1t not only has been trans
porting people from the stricken city by
thousands and sending them to their
destination, remote as it might be, and
all free of charge, but has given the
right of way and free carriage to all re-
lief trains from wherever sent. Passen-
ger trains were sidetracked for these
free relief trains, and all other freight
except that intended for immediate use
of the sufferers was left on the siding
in order that provisions and clothing
night be rushed to the stricken. This
was all done by the Southern Pacific In
the face of the enormous damage suf-
fered by the company itself, not only
in the loss of business. but destruction
of their property. all of which reached
into the millions. The old saying that
corporations have no souls, lost It's
significance in the instance of these two
railroads, the Goldfeld & Tonopah, and
the Southern Pacific.

MACDONALD TALKS ON
THE RAILROAD SITUATION

In a recent interview Malcolm Mac
donald made the following statements
regarding the railroad situation in
Southern Nevada:
'It is a settled fact that we will have
three railroads into Bullfrog in the fall.
I met Borax' Smith and his party in
Beatty, and Mr., Smith told me that he
has the steel. ties and spikes for 100
miles of railroad. The rails have been
laid to within 70 miles of Beatty, where
all arrangements for a terminal, shops,
round houses, etc, have been made 1T
is pretty well assured that this road
will go through to Tonopah, and my i'm
preston is that it will be continued to
Manhattan. The Clark road. it is ex-
pected. will be in operation into Bullfrog
before the end of next month. The Gold
field & Tonopah road has let the con-
tract for the extension of it's line from
Goldheld to Bullfrog. so you can see that
the future of the Bullfrog country is as
sured.'
Mr.. Macdonald was asked what. in
his opinion. would be the effect of the
three railroads when they are in opera
tion in Bullfrog.
why" he said. 'it will be the max
ing of the country. There will be strong
competition, and we will come pretty
near getting our own rates. 1t costs us
now about $75 a ton for the shipment
and reduction of ore. but when we get
the railroads and mills in there We will
be able to work ore as low in value as
$40 or SIS a ton. We ave lots of that
kind of ore in Bullfrog. and that is why
the camp is going to be one of the big
gest districts in Southern Nevada"

There Is something doing in the
baseball world. From reports Spo-

Portland, Seattle and Tacoma the
coming year.
H. d. Merritt is expected to ar
rive in Portland this morning when
O final agreement with the Port
land and Seattle magnates may be
made. Judge McCredie OF the
Portland team has always been in
favor of the old northwest circuit
and Jim Agnew of Seattle has been
on the fence. Agnew wired Nc
Credie that the Spokane people
had offered to refund to the two
teams their guarantee fund in the
Pacific Coast league.
Now with McCredie slightly in
favor of the Northwest league and
Agnew talking, the prospects look
good. Jim Agnew was not willing
to break away from the Pacific
Coast league, he would never waste
a minute wiring McCredie the pro-
position from Spokane. 1t is said
it is more than likely Spokane will
have the two towns in with her
this year.
The meeting today will have an
important bearing on the baseball
situation in Spokane for the sea-

Tommy Burns Is more confident
of beating Marvin Hart when they

beating any opponent who faced
him in the past two years.

but it is true nevertheless. Burns

never trained before and he figures
that he is just the kind of fighter
to beat the slow moving Hart.
