Special Rates to Tahoe.

The Southern Pacific Co. has
arranged schedule of very low
rates from all its points in Nevada
to Lake Tahoe. Lake Tahoe is a
beautiful resort at which to spend
the hot Summer months, and the
S. P. Co. is endeavoring to give
everybody chance to visit the
Lake by making reasonable trans
portation charges. The Lake re-
sorts have been visited this Sum-
mer by greater number of people
than in any previous season, which
is probably due to the reduced
rates. These rates can be obtained
by writing to d. S. Taggart, S. P.

The two Indians who were ar
rested last week, one or the 18th
and the other on the 18th inst. for
being drunk and disorderly, were
sent to Dayton Monday to serve
out sentences of 80 and 60 days,
respectively. They worked on
the street for couple of days
here and made some Improvement
in the looks of the town.
On Wednesday of this week
San Francisco George, bad Piute,
was arrested on a charge of drunk
enness and disturbing the peace at
the Indian camp on Bridge street.
George.was welding big butcher
knife and threatening to carve up
anybody who came within his
reach. The Indians finally double
banked him and brought him to
town and he was locked up for the
night. He had his hearing the
same night and received a fine of
$500 or 100 days in Jail. Consta-
BILE Baker started for Dayton with
him Thursday morning, but at
Wabuska the Piute gave Baker
the slip soneway and could not
be found. He has been in trouble
here before and knows what Jail
life is. 1t is safe to say he will not
show up in these parts for some
time to come, and his escape will
save the county from boarding
him for the next three months.

ARROWHEAD.
The New Camp Near Rockland
Which Promises to be
Producer,

The new camp which has been
located near the strikes recently
made some four miles southwest
of Rockland, in Esmeralda county,
and some thirty miles south of
Yerington, has been named Ar
rowhead.
Two German prospectors in the
new district have a shaft down a
distance of twenty feet, following
a vein which was only eight
inches in width on the surface,
but which has widened to two and
one-half feet at the present depth.
Assays from the ore coming from
the bottom of the shaft range from
SIS to $40 in gold. The work of
sinking will be continued and,
possibly, test run of ore made in
the little Rockland mill in the
near future.
Henry and Nate Fish, of Pine
Grove, and Chas. McNiel, of Gold
field, have three claims in this dis
trict, and a ledge two feet in width
can be traced on the surface the
entire length of one claim. At
one point on the ledge shaft has
been sunk to depth of fifteen
feet and the entire ledge horns
we'll. Assays from samples taken
clear across the ledge give returns
of from $40 to $50 per ton. We
were shown one assay which
showed a gold value of S28 per
ton. The owners of these three
claims have the townsite of Ar
rowhead. 1t has not yet been
plated, but is said to be a fine site
for town.
In Big Tree Canyon, four miles
east of Arrowhead, Hank Taylor,
DR.. Cavano and Mr.. Gregory have
discovered some large leads of gold
ore and have located about six
teen claims. Bill Hatherell and
Jim Welsh have some claims in
this section which look good and
upon which the holding work is
now being done. o. H. Some
and others have also made some
locations in this section.
DR.. Pierson, of California, has
recently located six claims about
four miles west of Pine Grove
which look very promising.
In the Arrowhead district Supt.
Rubsch, of the Rockland- Nevada
Co., and VIM. Melvin have sew
eral promising claims in large
porphyry dyke, which traverses
the country from north to south
for quite distance. A shaft on
this dyke shows a good-sized vein
cutting it from east to west short
distance below the surface.

SPEAKS HIGHLY
OF YERINCTON.
Mines Have Signs Of PER-
mmency.

Salt LakerS are interested In the
Yerington copper district, the
opinions of those competent to
judge of the present conditions
and the probable future of Yering-
ton properties are always well
come. w. G. Page, the well
known mining engineer, has just
returned from swing around the
Nevada circle, and during his
meanderings in the interests of his
professional duties he spent some
little time in Yerington.
Mr.. Page, like every one who
goes into this camp for the first
time since the resurrection of the
district has been on, returns great
ly impressed with the copper
showings of the district.
There has been a great deal
said regarding this great district, !"
stated Mr.. Page, but in my opin-
ion too much cannot be said" He
states in addition that the proper
ties there, of which Salt Lakers
have the cream, are giving every
indication of being permanent and
rich producers. The shipments
from the district are telling re-
markable story, the copper values
running as high as 40 per cent.
One of the most facinating de-
velopments in the present day
life of Yerington, states Mr. Page,
is the experiment with the mag
netic system of separating values.
So successfully, however, has
this method been used upon Yer
ington copper ores that it seems to
have passed the experimental
stage entirely. While Mr.. Page
did not get to inspect personally
the workings of the magnetic ma
chimes, he heard from authorita-
tive sources that the saving effect
ed ranges well above 90 per cent.
The heavy character of the gangue
prevents the wet process being
used. and from what has been &C
complished with the magnetic sep
arator it seems certain that the
problem of handling Yerington
sulphide copper ores has been
solved.
Yerington is in the center of an
ideal mining region. Mr.. Page
states that the drive through either
the east or west fork of the Walk
er River Valley is one of the most
beautiful and surprising imagin-
able.
After many weary hikes across
the hot and dry deserts of Nevada,
one can scarcely believe that the
boundary lines of that State con-
tain such an ideal agricultural re-
gion as that along Walker River.
Everything combines to form for
the copper industry of Yerington
conditions that could not be bet
tered in any sense. 1t is incon-
ceivable that the copper deposits
of this region should have lain
idle for seventeen or more years
as they did, and one pleasing fea-
ture of the district today is that
those who have grown gray in
waiting for the day of jubilee in
mining are now benefitting most
generously by the season of pros
perity that bids fair to last for
many years to come.-Salt Lake
Tribune.

REDUCTION PLANT
FOR ROCKLAND
One Hundred Ton Plant to b
Erected at Cost Of
$4,000.

w. X. Hunter, CT Los Angeles,
and Chas. l. Baxter, of Pittsburgh,
Pa, were arrivals in Yerington
last week, Friday, and the next
day proceeded to Rockland to per-
feet plans for the construction of a
new plant for reducing ore from
their promising property at that
place, the Northumberland mine.
Mr.. Evans and Mr.. Baxter and his
father are large owners in the
property and Mr.. Mendenhall is
the engineer who will have the
supervision of the construction of
the plant. Mr.. Evans and Mr..
Baxter returned to Los Angeles
yesterday and Mr.. Mendenhall
will remain and arrange for get
ting supplies to the mine when
they arrive.
All arrangements have been
made for the erection of a Ioo-ton
crushing and cyaniding plant and
the plant is now on its way from
Denver, Colorado, being a produce
of the Colorado Iron Works of that
city. This plant will consist of
four sets of rolls, one of which re-
duces the ore to a certain fneness,
after which it passes upward upon
conveyor and thence through
conical revolving screens, the finer
particles dropping down into an
other revolving screen and the
coarser ones into another set of
rolls. This gang of rolls and
screens finally reduces the ore to
pulp which will pass through
3o-mesh screen, and it is then con-
veyed to the cyanide tanks. The
plant is being constructed after
thorough investigation as to the
best method of working the ore
from the mine and securing the
highest percentage of values, and
as it is dry .crusher it can be
operated with the minimum of
water, which will be an advant-
age. The plant will be construct
ed at point about 1000 feet down
the road from the old mill, which
will give the company additional
advantages.
While on this trip Mr.. Evans
ordered some 10000 feet of lumber
from the Terry sawmill and the
delivery of the lumber will begin
next week.
The mine is looking better than
ever, the company having expend-
ed last season over $4,000 in de-
velopment work. 1t has been pro-
ducing for the past several months
from $4,000 to $4,000 in bullion
extracted by the little fve-stamp
mill and cyanide plant'now in use.
In a crosscut from tunnel No.
a Wine has been sunk for a dis
lance of 100 feet in a I2-foot ledge
of ore which will average better
than $40 per ton, and the mine
now shows up practically 100
feet of backs.
AT the present time about 80
men are employed on the property,
hut when the new plant is COM
pleted it will require about rs
men, mostly miners, to operate it.
1t will be the endeavor of the
company to have this plant in OPP
Grafton by the first of December.
A force of rs men on the pay
roll means the expenditure of a
considerable amount of money
