VALUE or MEXICAN MINES

Comparatively little is known in the
United States concerning the value of
Mexican mines, which are entirely owned
in Mexico. and which are traded in only
in Mexico City. The values of some of
them are surprising. For example.
shares of the Naica mine of Chihuahu
are selling at $4,000 a share. There are
only 100 shares in the company. how
ever. This gives a value of three mill
lion dollars to the property. The $500
shares of the Penoles mine in Durango
are worth $3.50 a share each. par value
being $50. At this price the mine value
is about eight million. The 5000 shares
OF the Juliantla in Guerrero are selling
at $40 par value being SO. The $4,000
shares of the Santa Gertrudis in Hidalgo
are selling at 500 each. This mine has
paid 407 dividends. The 100000 shares
of the Dos Estrellas in Michoacan are
selling at $50 each, the par value being
81. The mine on this basis is valued at
twenty-seven million dollars. The 1876
shares of the Orc Nolan in h state of
Mexico are selling at over 500 each.
These figures are. of course. Mexican
money.-Mining Topics.

by gravitation. We are also develop
ing another source of water supply
which will give us an additional $50
horse power. The pipe is now on the
ground and being laid at the rate of
half a mile a day. and we expect to de-
liver water in town within sixty days.
I'VE have done about 1900 feet of
development work, and hav opened up
continuous ore shoots on four separate
veins. In addition to the four veins
mentioned we have discovered four
blind ledges-three in a tunnel and one
in a shaft. We have two main tunnels,
one in about $50 feet and the other
o $50 feet, which will enable us
to deliver the ore at the mill which
is to be constructed as soon as the
machinery can be shipped in. The val
ues of the ore bodies now developed
range from $40 to 500 a ton. and we
calculate that we already have blocked
out above the TUNE level at least
$780, 900 worth of ore that can be de-
livered at the mill by gravitation. On
a very conservative estimate. we have
$5,0o0.0 900 blocked out in the mine"

filed on six other claims. A large scope
of country still remains unstaked. The
property lies near the corner of the
three states of Nevada. Utah and Ari-
iona and may be reached from Hack
berry. Ariz.. or from Las Vegas. New.
From Las Vegas the first point is
Moapa. thence st. Thomas and thence
Gold Butte and to Griggs' Ferry, the
new name which has been given to the
ferry. 1t is within 16 miles of the
Grand canon of the Colorado.
The ore exhibited in the Miner office
is of a splendid quality. 1t fairly made
the heart of S%anborn, the old p~rospector
and assayer beat with pride. In de-
scribing the property he said:
Both gold and copper abounds. The
surface samples which we took, we had
not the time to do anything else, give
returns of SIG in gold and shows 5 per
cent copper. There is an 8-foot vein
which is traceable along the surface for
over 5000 feet. 1t looks just like the
mother lode of California. The top or
surface is composed of copper and iron
gossan on tapborite, underneath of
which is gray copper. Then comes the
deposit of gold and copper. The coun-
try is granite fianked by lime contact.
"The vein, which runs southeast,
after going about 5000 feet, intersects
a ledge running north and south. This
is called an aubuttle intersection.
I'VE located seven claims on the
mother lode -Four of these we de-
nominated the Gold Coin group and the
other three we named the Jackrabbit
group. We located a group of six
claims which we named the Pearl, about
a mile east of the other property. My
old friend, Mike Scanlon, also staked out
six claims. Aside from these the coun-
try is irgin."-Bullfrog Miner.

large body of galena ore on a group OF
claims in Jefferson canon. known as the
Cash Rock group. The claims are on
the south side of the canon within 1000
feet of the old Jefferson mill and Mr..
Williams says he can trace the ledge
for a distance of 500 feet. One assay
gave 76 per cent lead and 1886 silver
and a second assay gave 81 per cent
lead and 500 ounces of silver. Associated
with Mr.. Williams are H.. L. Miller, r.

VALLEY
IS new CAMP

w. C. Howard, the architect, re-
turned yesterday from Winnemucca,
where he was awarded the contract
for the draughting of plans and
specifications for the three-story
hotel to be erected by Phil Blum.
The structure will be 75x1O0 feet.
and will be modern in every respect.
Mr.. Howard, while on his trip,
heard of a new strike fifty miles
from Golconda. He met man from
Goldfield, whose name he does not
recall, and the latter told him that
he had just made one of the biggest
strikes that had been made in that
country, not even barring Rosebud
or Seven Troughs.
He had some of the specimens
from his strike with him." said Mr.,
Howard, and they were certainly
beauties. Squaw Valley is the name
of the new camp, and he told me that
he had a four-foot ledge at a depth
of ten feet"

Eagles Pavilion theater was COM
fortably filled last night, the rain

at it's humor, and wept at it's pathos.
1t was play that kept the laughter
chasing the tears away all the time,
but still there was enough of the
comedy drama element to give zip
to it. The specialties were all very
good, and the "Rube" band was a
hit in itself.

can turn out all kinds of work that
is demanded in the offices of lawyers,
brokers, promoters, mining compan-

and we guarantee satisfaction in
every respect. One trial will be suffi.
cient to establish the truth OF this
statement. It pays to go where only
the best kind of work is done, and

GREAT RUN ON APPLES.

The Southern Nevada Mercantile
Company had great run on apples
yesterday. They were the incest
looking apples seen in the city in a
long time, and the demand for them
was something fierce. There were
just 4S7 boxes sold, and the demand
was still on when the store closed.
The popularity of the store does not
diminish, the principal reason for the
public's appreciation being the fact
that the right prices only are asked
for the goods, and the goods are the
right kind.
