GRAND BLOWOUT
Eagles Ball Grandest Event in the Past
Year-Jensen Hall Beautifully
Decorated.

Jensen hall was the scene last
night of a brilliant event-the an
nual ball of the local lodge Of
Eagles. The hall had been beau
tifully decorated and there was Il
large and happy crowd Of people
present. Music was furnished
by Snyder's orchestra and was
fine.
Supper was served at the Hotel
Wolf, where one of the finest
spreads that a Saratoga crowd
e sat down to was enjoyed by
the guests and was praised by
every one present. Mine host,
johnson Doggett, has done him
self proud in this achievement.
The prize of cut glass went to
Mrs. Winner, who held ticket No.
81, which proved to be the lucky
number. Perfect order reigned
and every one present had a most
delightful time. The members OF
the order, one and all exerted
themselves to see that all went vel

q did not admit of more than gener-
alization. Important details per
tanning to each of the several sec
lions touched upon had to be left
for future issues. There is no
part of the immense territory par
TALLY described that offers greater
inducements to the investment
seeker than that of the Slavery
district. The mineral producing
possibilities of the Slavery have
received but scant attention from
other than the student of such
matters. The prospector has
been there but his work has been
of rather prefunctory character.
The big copper discoveries made
in the districts to the south drew
the prospector away from where
the outcrop and general geology,
spoke of silver and gold rather
than red metal, the constantly in
c~reasing demand and rapidly di-
minishing supply of which is car
rying the price away up. The
Slavery will prove to be a great
producer of both gold and silver.
Copper exists too, but though in
fairly big deposits, as compared
with the great values in silver and
gold can be rated as a ~by-product
only. The coal deposits Ire very
extensive and the quality equal to
the best found in any part of the
state. Lime of character most de-
sirable in smelling is here in great
quantities.
The soil in the Slavery basin is
extremely fertile and with very
little irrigation can be made to
produce meat making foods in
profusion. 1t is therefore certain
that in the near future the coun-
try of St. Vrain will be one of
prosperity unequelled in the grea,
and rapidly growing west that the
seeker of investment in mining
property will soon discover its
great worth as a mineral producer:
that the homeseeker will use its
advantages as an agricultural and
health resort: the tourist and
sportsman its scenic beauties and
great opportunities for the exer-
else of his favorite pastlme with
rod and gun.
Coal is the energy of commerce,
Its occurrence is SO common in
our state that its great Importance

LOS ANGELES EXCHANGE.
New Venture in Coast City Begins Un-
der Auspicious Conditions.

LOS ANGELES, July 3l.-As evidence
OF the growth in southern California
OF mining stock brokerage the Broadway
Mining & Stock exchange has been In
corporated and now occupies the ground
floor at 3l2 South Broadway. The new
quarters provide 5000 square feet of floor
room and this gives 10 the new exchange
the honor of occupying as large and pre-
tentlous quarters as any similar organi-
zation In the United States, The in
corporators of the new exchange are
Frank G. Tyrrell, Il prominent mining at
torney OF this city. formerly OF ST, Louis,
Mo-; b. NJ. Blythe, mine owner OF
Tonopah. who is also heavily Interested
In Manhattan and Goldheld, and II. II.
McCord, q prominent local mine owner.
The charter Will be obtained under the
laws of California and Will provide for a
capital stock of S260 The membership
Will be limited and the price of member
ship Will be $500, The qualifications for
membership will be tho same as those OF
the San Francisco Stock Exchange board
and the Wall Street Mining exchange
OF New York, and tho rules of these ex-
changes for listing stocks and for tho
government OF the exchange body Will be
adopted by the Broadway Mining and
Stock exchange. This Will place the or
ganizntlon on conservative basis and
will guarantee its conservative and sue
cessful operation.
The facilities OF the new exchange, II
is claimed, Will be unsurpassed by any
organization OF It's kind in the country,
for the method OF buying and selling OF
stocks will be composite OF the best
features OF the other leading mining ex-
changes Of the country, EXpediency in
making transactions will be the motto
of the new body, and In order TO ac-
compllsh this end stub wires will be run
into the exchange, an operator will be
employed aud the sales, as made at San
Francisco, as well as Salt Lake City, Will
be announced. Double daily service Will
be had from New York and Boston on all
of the leading mining stocks. such as
Calumet. Hccla. Greene Copper, United
States Consolidated. Trinity. Amalgam-
ated, Anaconda and Butte Coalition In
fact. the mining stocks traded in on the
New York Stock exchange will be sup
plemcnted by all OF the active curb
stocks. thus giving the new exchange a
wide scope for business. Local bonds and
stocks, banks and telephone companies
Will be dealt in.

GOLDEN ARROW DISTRICT.
New Region Is Attracting Attention
Fom Big Operators.

II is practically certain that the pro-
jacted line OF Senator Clark from Gold
field through Reyeille and Eden to Ely
II carried forward to q successful issue
will open up several new camps In ad-
dition to Kawich and Reveille. New dis
trlcts arc becoming SO frequent In Ne
vada that the discovery OF one creates
very little commotion, the best OF IL is
however, that the new camps as they
multiply give every indication of being
permanent.
The Kawich mountains provide the
scene for the latest excitement over min
eral wealth, the locality being the Col
don Arrow district, situated about 40
miles east OF Tonopah. Perhaps the
most encouraging feature OF this region
aside from Its undoubted mineral re-
sources Is the fact that several strong
eastern organizations are in control of
many OF the largest properties The
LANDER group recently passed into the
hands Of Malcolm Macdonald, and became
merged into the Nevada Smelling cor
poration which is forming plans for q
smelter at Reveille.
Since the advent OF the PHILADELPHIA
people who first took Tonopah seriously
their operations In Nevada have been
watched with considerable interest both
throughout Nevada and the east. This
party OF investors arc now developing
their Golden Arrow possessions several
shafts upon their properties exposing
some extraordinary ore, tho bulk OF
which. however, Is of milling grade. The
Page company Is disclosing some very
rich and extensive ore bodies on their
ground. and the coming months give
promise Of good results.
Tho present trend of Nevada operations
and discoveries is eastward. This por-
tion OF the state has been neglected In
comparison to the great activity that has
bpeD going fnr
half south and west of Tonopah Tho
largo investor is following close upon the
trail of the prospector, and each mile
towards the east brings the trade\of that
territory closer to Salt Lake merchants.
There are opportunities born each day
for Utah interests, and warnings are urg-
ent against delay In securing this large
scope of business

Company Is Rescuing Fine Values From
Their Old Dumps.

The Flagstaff company Is coming to the

this source.
Mr.. Wantland says that investigation

NEED OF RAILROAD
SHOWN BY SHIPMENTS
Active Alta Companies Are In
creasing Out of Proper
ton to Facilities.

The story told by the receipts at the
samplers Of ore from tho district OF
Alta not only illustrate the excellent
resources OF that growing camp, but em-
phaslzes positively the great need OF a
railroad for the camp AL the corro-
spending period OF last year shipments
from Alta were rather scarce, the active
companies being easily counted on one
hand.
Today. however, tho various companies
operating their possessions are hard to
keep track of, and the amount OF ore
that Is being marketed is remarkable
when It is considered how unsatisfactory
the transportation facilities are. Dur
inS July sixty cars OF orc were sent
down tho canyon. an increase of nine
over the month OF June. The most
generous contributor Is the Columbus
Consolidated, and this company Is en-
crease their shipments by adding teams
to the long string now employed.
The Columbus Consolidated could mar
ket still greater tonnage daily had
that organization the benefits Of railroad
transportation. Four or hyo other COM
panies could increase their consignmentn
OF high-grade ore, and could market
tonnage In addition that demands rates
in proportion to the values contained.
But the shipping would not be all one
way, the amount Of freight that is needed
In the camp would mean no small income
to the railroad.
Alta Is fast approaching sizo on

Of all the railroad talk that has been
going the rounds for several months will
como one definite and adequate provision
for connecting the camp with tho outer
world by means OF steel rails.

To Mr.. Godbo and his associates is due
the credit for this discovery, and they
have the satisfaction attending the pes

stating that Blind Mountain will be one
OF tho most important red metal districts
IN that state. and that the gold contents
add not a little to the value and interest
Of the ore deposits. Upon his property

IT is certain that a comparatively great
