vULTURE's RICH SHOWING.
Large Quantities of digh Grade Ore
Being Taken Out.

Recent developments have Danish
ed doubt about the Vulture becoming
one of the big producers of the Won
der district and state. The attention
of Wonder is now focused upon this
property. II has been visited By
numerous persons, and all of them
have been made enthusiastic by the
rock. which is open to inspection by
anybody. and can be seen in large
quantities in the ore house, and about
the mouth Of the upraise from which
II is being taken. One hundred and
twenty-five sacks were sent out last
week. and this week two wagon loads
have been f%reighted to the railroad.
The ore is rich in sulphides and is
beginning to show chlorides in in
%creasing abundance. It averages
$40 to the ton,
This rock is being taken from a
shaft that vas sunk on the ledge to
meet the upraise from the tunnel.
The vein dips away from the upraise
at a depth of forty-fYe feet. At this
point drifts are being run along the
ledge. The intention is to follow the
latter closely. 1t pitches consider
ably. and has not vet been cut in the
tunnel. the end of which. 700 feet
from the opening. is 200 feet below
the surface. The tunnel is being
driven still farther in. and all the
indications are that the ledge will be
cut within a short distance in the
tunnel. The latter is also being run
toward the Jack Pot ledge. If this is
not uncovered soon a crosscut win be
run to it.-Nevada Mining News.

RESOURCES or ALASKA.


WASHINGTON, Oct. s. - The
United States geological surveys in
vestigation of coal resources OF
Alaska have just been completed for
the present season and their results
will probably be incorporated in a
report on the coal of the territory.
The work this year was in charge
of w. w. Atwood. who was assisted
by II. NJ. Eakin. and the ~inyestlga-
tons included an examination OF the
coal fields of Washington, made for
the purpose OF comparing the Goals
with those of Alaska.
Work was begun in southeastern
Alaska in May. on K~upreanon and
Admiralty islands. A topographic
map was made of each field and
careful geological notes were taken.
The structure and structural rela-
tons of the collaborating formations
were determined and large collections
of fossil plants and animals were
shipped to Washington for further
study.
The remainder of the season was
occupied in examining the coal In the
interior of Alaska. This work was
begun In the upper Yukon basin and
continued to the head of the great
Yukon-Kuskokwim delta. From Daw-
son to Holy Cross, a distance of
y 1900 miles, the party travelled in
a canoe. making frequent stops and
examining all Goa deposits accessible
from the Yukon.
Coal has been mined at more than
a dozen places along the Yukon, and
at some Of these places, the mining
has been profitable, but 20 extensive
development of the coal fields in the
interior has been undertaken and
no work has been done on the coal
claims OF this region during the past
summer.
Collections of fossil plants and
shells from the Yukon valley were
made and forwaded to Washington.
Certain photographic studies that
were begun last year in connection
with the coal fields were continued
this season. These studies are now
being carried from Seattle to Skag-
way, among the islands OF British
Columbia and southeastern Alaska.
and thence over the mountains and
through the interior basin to the
mouth of the Yukon. Their results
will probably be published in connec-
ton with the report on the coal re-
sources.

RFATH OF LITTLE
DANNY DRISCOLL
op,cHT NEWSBOY KNOWN TO
ALL TONOPAH PEOPLE
is DEAD.

nanny Driscoll, S years old. son OF
NJ and Mrs. Daniel Driscoll of S21
uo,th Dakota street, died yesterday
,fterpoon after a lingering and rath-
~ mysterious illness. He became i'll
- oakland, California, about two
months ago and gradually wasted
ouav He was unable to eat and
the doctors were puzzled yer his
eondition. They could do nothing
,or him and he wanted to come back
N Butte. where he was born. His
narents returned with him six weeks
AGO. Little Danny was a remarkable
child. old far beyond his years, and
his companions and associates yer
always matured people. In June of
last year Mr.. Driscoll and his family
moved to T%onopah, and although
only Z years old. won a prize as the
hest newsboy in Tonopah. He wrote
Iefters to The Bonanza, which were
published in that paper, and he in
vested his savings in mining stocks.
II was said of him that he was as ia
millar with the Nevada mining stocks
as the oldest Spectator in Tonopah,
and always knew which n to buy.
He accumulated money and opened
a bank account in his own name.
From Tonopah he went with his
mother and sister 10 California,
where he took sick.
When all remedies had failed 10
bring relief to him a surgical opera
ton was performed a few days ago,
as a last resort, but even this failed
to locate the cause of his trouble. and
the end came yesterday afternoon.
The funeral will be held tomorrow
afternoon Butte Miner.
Little Danny Driscoll sold papers
for The Daily Bonanza and was
known to everybody in Tonopah. He
vas a bright. wide awake little fell
low, but at the same time was never
forward, and was %gentleness itself.
He had his own line OF customers.
who always waited for him. He was
keenly alive to the stock situation.
and knew what was a good buy and
why It was. Through his sales and
the Investments of his earnings he
made a good deal OF money. aud
when he left here had a snug bank
account, He was obliged to leave
Tonopah on account of the illness Of
bis mother. to whom the little fell
low was most devoted. Everybody
IN Tonopah who remembers the
bright, gentle lad will learn with re-
gret Of his untimely taking on.
