The first exhibition of work done by

classrooms were decorated handsomely

stencils, all the work Of the pupils. A
well contested debate between the low

session and was heard by more than
100 interested patrons of the school.

The San Francisco call., 1907-06-14

The shorts rallied yesterday at the
San Francisco mining boards. They
worked vaiiantIy and long TO beat the
prices down. They succeeded in max
ing yesterdays highest price for one
leading stock a marked declension from
that of the preceding day.
The size OF the warfare for safety
was measured by the volume of busi-
ness which at the San Francisco stock
and exchange board alone amounted to
466. 600 shares. of which 205, 900 shares
were sold on the regular call board The
fight was naturally over Goldfeld Con-
solidated Mines, Jumbo Extension and
Combination Fraction. The sales of
Goldheld Consolidated Mines We're more
than $4,000 shares. Jumbo Extensi
was represented by $4,000 shares and
Combination Fraction by sales of 81, 400
shares
Goldfeld Consolidated Mines opened
al $3.50. or so points below the highest
bid of Wednesday. The range of Gold
field Consolidated amounted in the day
TO so points, the price falling as low as
$50, with recovery of large part of
the losses later in the day. Combina-
tion Fraction ranged from $2.9o to
$2.45. Jumbo Extension ranged from
$50 to $H55. Florence shared in the
fortunes of the day and dropped from
$3.50 to 81.
Compared with Wednesday the high
est prices OF Goldfeld Consolidated
Mines shares fell off from $40 to $6.75.
Other stocks, while variously affected
at different hours yesterday. generally
made higher records than on the pre-
ceding day. The gains. comparing the
highest prices of Thursday with those
of Wednesday, were as follows: Bel
mont from 1896 to sS.75; Combination
Fraction, from s2.75 to $3.50; Florence,
from ss-25 to $3.50; Jim Butler. from
s1.ozk 10 s1.o711; Midway. from s1.35 TO
$L45; St. Ives, from 81 cents to sl.o5;
Red Hills, from 43 cents to As cents
Jumbo Extension from $1S0 to $1.90;
Blue Bull, from 81 cents to 34 cents.
Nearly all stocks sold higher yester-
day than on Wednesday, but Atlanta
did not go as high by a point; Booth
lost point from the highest price of
the day before; Mayfiower Consolidated
sold at 36 cents for its highest yester-
day, as against 80 cents on Wednes-
day
The range in prices gave the shorts a
chance to make good and the amount of
sales was taken TO indicate that the
shorts were making hay while the sun
shone. How large the short interest in
the local market is connot well be CAL
culated, but IL still has considerable
Importance according to the estimates
of the street. All the conditions are
ripe for an interesting market for some
days to come.

EASTERN SECTION MINES
Region Traversed by Large Dixie:
Holds Promising Properties

That section of the Goldfleld district
lying from two to four miles to the
south of Goldfield, so says the Goldfeld
News, gives promise of fulfilling the
prophecy Of Professor Spur. The News
says:
properties have to the front with fine sur
face indications and considerable development
work is now under way. The whole section is
uaFersed by immense dikes that stick up out
Of the ground for 20 or 80 feet and can be fol-
lowed for miles. Some OF the float picked up
on the ground assayed s. 600 a ton and large
number Of the surface groupings return good
values.
The Frances group, consisting OF 81 acres
OF ground, which sidelines the Frances Mohawk
on the east, is crossed by a number of great
dikes and thorough prospecting of the ground
gives every reason for the belief that it has the
making of a mine. Development work on the
property has been started under the direction
Of Consulting Engineer Donald Ferguson.
The Pittsburg Nevada which adjoins the
Frances on the east has splendid surface show
ings. Assays OF SS q ton were obtained across
the surface of 20 foot dixie and ore running

On the Congo group Of the Nevada Queen
company, Engineer Ferguson is driving a long
tunnel into the side of lava capped butte. The

The remaining ground owned by the Nevada
Queen company consists of the King, Queen and
Little Jone claims, about 90 acres. A large
amount OF trenching and prospecting work has
been done on these claims.
