MAMMOTH HIGH IN GRADE.
Bottom OF Shaft In Ore CarruinQ
pa Ounces Silver to the
Ton.

One OF the premier strikes of the wear
Is Just reported from the Mammoth
smart OF the Citizens Mining company
In the Evans gulch. The ASSAYS from a
sample picked AT random from the bot
tom of the shaft revealed the presence
OF 2Si ounces silver and 30 per cent lend
This remarkably rich mineral seems to
oe genuine shoot and not pocket, and
at once places the Mammoth on "A sound
OASIS. IL also brings To the front "A sec

conspicuous heretofore In fact the
nearest shipping property il the El Paso,

The shaft is at present 800 feet deem.
and was started last May. Major A. v
Bohn Is the manager and the enterprise
Is financed in st. Louis.
The Mammoth shaft which began To
pass through the iron ore yesterday that
Is evidently the cap of the ore shoot
produced large fragments of lead ore. 4
ilttle lead was showing on Tuesday hav-
ing value as was stated the other
morning OF five ounces silver and Is Der
cent lead. The says on the ore yester.
day showed 2S4 ounces silver and 20 per
cent lead. There was no special samp.
ing to obtain this assay, in fact il was
taken mt random from half dozen large
pieces sent up by the shaft men.
These values and the maSsy size of the
pieces make it practically certain that
a large body of rich lead ore will be
found in the Mammoth. The stock
holders are principally St Louis men
who have assisted Maj. Bohn to prose
cute this enterprise. All concerned are

| day. positively declined, but said that
Nelson would weigh every day on the
club scales between now and the fight,
provided Cans did the same.
Cans absolutely declined this offer
and said that he would not again weigh
in public until the day of the fight
Siler has been quoted as saying that
he believed Nelson's manager would
sooner abandon his $4,000 forfeit money
rather than permit Nelson to meet
Cans at 1873 pounds stripped, and 1t was
this belief that induced the club man
ayers and Cans to accede to Nelson's
demands.
Both Cans and Nelson indignantly
resent any intimation of a possibility
of the fight being fought otherwise
than on the square.
President Rlckard has been informed
by the officials of the Southern Pacific
railroad that the company has made a
one-way rate from all points in Cali
fornia, Nevada and Oregon, Washing
ton and Utah for the benefit of those
desiring to witness the fight.
The round trip rate from San Fran
cisco to Goldfield and return will be $27
first class. The reduced rates will go
into effect Immediately.
Many Reach GoIdfield
Last nights and todays trains
brought into Goldfield many well known
sporting men who have seats at the
ringside. A large number of San Fran
cisco and several eastern newspaper
men also arrived today. Nat Goodwin
got in on a special train tonight. Eddie
Graney, who refereed the Britt-Neson
fight at Colma' last September; Tim
McGrath and Col. Marbin Brady are
here.
Both training camps were crowded
this afternoon while the lightweights
trained Cans, in particular was in
fine fettle and he worked harder than
any day since the signing of articles.
The manner in which he punched the
bag and skipped the rope was revela
ton.
The careworn look which heretofore
has led many to believe that his con-
dition was not of the best. had entirely
disappeared, and several times the rope
connecting the bag with it's socket was
severed by the force of his powerful
blows.
Nelson went through his exercise as
he always does, ceaselessly and with
his characteristic determination. His
three-round bout with Lundie was
spicy exhibition, and the Dane was
heartily applauded at the conclusion Of
the set-to.
Nelson's skin and face glowed with a
healthful color, and his every appear
ance showed him to be in perfect con-
dition.
There was no change today in the
betting and no heavy individual wagers
were reported. Ten to eight with Cans
favorite are the prevailing Odds
Many of Nelson's admirers are still
holding back hoping to get better
price, but there is little to indicate
that the figures will lengthen.

SECURE
GREAT PITCHER
CONNIE MACK MAKES GOOD
FIND
Young College Twlrler Wins Four Out
Of Six Games Played With the
Athletics and Gives Promise
of Fast Future
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 31.--Probably
the greatest pitching find of the 1906
baseball season is John w. Coombs of
Connie Mack's string, who was secured
by that famous manager without cost.
Coombs comes from Colby college,
Waterville, Me-, and he pitched his last
college game on June "a in Portland,
when he defeated Bowdoin to for
the Maine state championship.
Coombs was captain Of his college
team last year and pitched fine ball
His batting was also a big factor In his
teams success, Colby defeating the
University of Maine to last May.
Coombs brought in the only score with
q home run drive.
The last few summers Colby has
pitched professional ball through
out New England, and a year ago this
time found him with Montpelier Barre
of the Northern league, where he
pitched fine ball For four years
pitched fine ball. For four years
Coombs pitched at Colby and was all
ways a great puzzle to the batters in
the colleges which he faced.
Coombs Is ideally built for a pitcher
standing six feet tall and weighing all
of 1856 pounds. Speed is his greatest
forte, while good head and baffling
curves also play an important part in
his success as a pitcher.
This season he has pitched In six
games for the Athletics and has won
four of them, lost one by a single run
and in the other took a balloon ascen-
sion in the second inning and was
taken from the box. Coombs has taken
part in several other games, relieving
pitchers or going to bat at a critical
point of the game.
He pitched his first major league
game against Washington in Philadel-
phia on July 5 and shut out the Ma
tionals, 3 to 0, allowing them but seven
hits, while Coombs himself got two
singles for the Athletics. On August 2,
in a pitchers battle in Cleveland,
CoombS triumphed over Bernhard to
2. and allowed the Maps but six hits.
In his most recent game, in Chicago on
August z, Coombs had a wild day and
his team was beaten to 2, Coombs
being taken from the box in the second
inning.

GoLDFIELD, New, Aug. 31.-1n spite
of the wrangling and objections Of over
anxious managers there seems no doubt
that the fight between Cans and Nelson
scheduled for o'clock Monday after
noon will be pulled off on time.
A telegram from New York stating
that 1t was reported there that the
fight was to be a fake and that 1t had
been arranged for Nelson to win has
caused some excitement and a great
deal of indignation among the Gold
field men who have been handling the
arrangements for the fight.
Tex Rickard, president of the Gold
field Athletic club and who is noted in
this section of the country as being
square" was most emphatic in his
denunciation of any rumor that the re-
suit of the fight was prearranged. He
said the best proof that no fake was
intended was that plenty of Cans
money at 10 to could be had in Gold
field.
He said that Cans himself is betting
heavily on the result, and 1t has been
stated that Larry Sullivan, who is act
ing as Cans manager has full power
to bet Cans $4,000 share of the purse
for the colored prize fighter.
of Cans to, accede to all of Nelson's
managers demands might indicate that
the fight was not to be on the square,
and the weight question particularly
puzzled many people.
1t is said, however, that Cans will
ingneSs to make the weight required
by the Nelson party was due to the
fact that he wuold have no difficulty in
getting under 1873 pounds in this cli-
mate. 1t was only by accident that
Nelson's manager learned that Cans
was already under 1873 pounds, and it
was then that he insisted that the Bal
timore man should make the required
weight in full ring costume.
Exhausts Every Resource
Nelson's manager has apparently ex-
hausted every resource in planning
things to suit his man, and as Cans
has met every demand from the Nelson
side there is no reason why the men
should not meet in the ring.
If they do not it is safe to say that
the prize fighter who places an obstacle
in the way will have a hard time in
getting out of Goldfeld alive. The men
working in the mines in and about
Goldfield are very much worked up
over the situation and are not at all
backward in saying: "If we don't see
fight someone will be hurt"
The promoters of the fight, while
asserting the peaceful habits and or
derly conduct of the citizens of Gold
field when things go to suit them are
not so positive as to what will be done
if the fight should turn, out to be a
fizzle or there should be any suspicion
of a fake.

newspaper correspondents if he would
allow Nelson to weigh before them to-
