Enects of the San Francisco Earth
quake Felt in the East.
When the news of the San Francisco
calamity reached the East no New
Jersey town was more sympathetic
than Morristown. Donations Of
money, food and clothing were solicit
ed and sent to the destitute Western
ers. Members of the various women's
clubs made house to house canvasses
for relief funds, and high and low
were interested in the work.
9 In the midst of the excitement Mrs.
X, a member of the summer colony,
arrived in Morristown for the pur-
pose Of experimenting the opening of
her house for the approaching sum-
mer season. For the work she en-
gagged as extra help Sam and Rose, a
colored couple who made a living
working by the day for Morristown
families. One day Rose paused in her
dusting long enough TO say to her em-
ployer, "Mrs. K, there's something
in my mind, and ! think it sure will
surprise you"
What is it, Rose !? +" asked her em-
pl0yer.
( Well, it am this, Mrs. K.i there
amt no worse San Francisco sufferers
nowhere than me and Sam is, for
them perons what we could depend on
for their garments has now done
gib'em to them donation parties, and

The Hosting Plant is embedded in a
porphyry dyke which averages
$1,000 in gold per ton within
three feet of the surface

This company owns outright six full claims, two of which,
the Lone Star and Texas, are in the Goldfeld belt and have the
extension Of the Quartzite and Black Butte vein, one of the
greatest in the Goldfeld district.
The Lone Star is under lease to the AID Astra Gold Mining
Company, a shaft is being sunk and is now 145 feet in depth;
assays averaging $50 in gold per ton have been obtained across
the entire ledge, which has widened from about four feet at the
surface to sixteen feet at this depth. Values as high as $500
have been found in stringers running through the ledge.
THE ORE is IDENTICAL WITH Ia NOW BEING
MINED IN THE MOHAWK AND THIS PROPERTY is IN
THE SAME CONDITION THAT THE MOHAWK WAS
WHEN THE RECENT GREAT STRIKE WAS MADE. MO
HAWK STOCK WAS SELLING AT so CENTS AT THAT
TIM AND ADVANCED TO ST. so WITHIN 80 DAYS. THE
NEXT SHOT MAY MAKE THE LONE STAR A NINE THE
EQUAL OF THE MOHAWK, WITH CHANCES OF MUCH
LARGER PERCENTAGE OF PROFIT ON ACCOUNT OF
THE PRESENT LOW PRICE OF H STOCK.
Employees of the Mohawk mine are now buying Rochester
stock at Is cents per share, anticipating similar results.
Drifting ON the vein in both directions from the shaft will !
be started at the 150foot point; also a crosscut will be run to !.
cut the ~porphyry ledge under the engine house where from !
surface Indications it is expected that a large body OF shipping !
ore will be found. !
Active work on company account will be pushed on the
Texas claim as the same strong lodges continue through both
claims, outcropping on surface. A vertical shaft has been sunk
to a depth of IA feet showing assay values as high as STA but
not in shipping quantity.
Both the Lone Star and Texas are under process OF patent
ing with no conflicts or clouds on title.
Mining engineers reports on above property furnished
upon application.
The company also own the Denver, Reno, March and
Ogden claims in the heart of the Gold Mountain district, south
of Goldfeld. This section has been very active recently and
many rich discoveries are reported and some of the best min
ing men are now actively engaged in operating there. The IN
terest taken is evidenced by the many freight wagons loaded
with supplies leaving Goldfeld for the Gold Mountain district
Development will be continued upon company account and
pushed as rapidly as possible on this group, upon which the
lodges are well defined and good values obtained from the sur
face. !
The company own their property, have no debts, or salaried
officers, and have a large treasury reserve. J
The shaft on the Texas having attained a depth when
necessitates machinery for further development, the company
ceuts. J
Development work up to date has been carried on by funds !
rr >'aed by the organizers of the company; not a single share
of Treasury Stock having ever been offered to the public. The !
full amount of 100000 shares still remaining in the treasury !.
