HOTEL FOR
YERINcTON

A telegram from Sacramento last even
ing brings the news that a $780, 900 hotel
will be built in Yerington and that work
on the structure will commence inside
of thirty days This is the hotel that
was spoken of in the TIMES some weeks
ago. A company of California people,
in company with several Yerington peo-
pie has been organized for the construc-
ton of this hotel, and it will be erected
on the corner of Broadway and Main
street. The building will be of cement
or stone and probably three stories in
height. Details of the plans have not
been made known, but it is safe to say
that the hotel will be one of the finest
in Nevada. 1t will be up-to-date in every
respect. Will have hot and cold water
in all the rooms, be heated by steam
and contain all the sanitary appliances
of first-class city hotel. 1t is safe to
say that with the building of this hotel a
dozen other business enterprises will be
started in its immediate vicinity.

John Marconi, of the Hub Saloon, OBJ
tanned horse and buggy from the Sny
der stables Tuesday morning to make a
trip to the Miller ranch. When near
the ranch he drove into All old slough
and the first thing he knew the horse
went out of sight in the water. Marconi
was thrown out of the buggy and had to
swim for his life. He finally reached
dry ground about half perished from
cold. Parties from the ranch came to
his rescue and he was taken to the house
and given dry clothes and revived. Mar
conf, it seems, had taken All old aban-
doned road to reach the ranch. The
water is high in the river and all the
bitches now. and it had backed up into
this old road from the slough. Marconi
was not acquainted with the roads, and
was travelling through water couple of
feet deep for some distance before his
horse went out of sight The animal
was drowned. but the buggy and harness
were finally recovered. Marconi is none
the worse for his ducking.

ACTIVE development WORK
ON RENO -YER|NCTON GROUND
Offices Change From Reno Yerneton>>work Prooressno
On the Property

At a meeting of the directors of the
Reno Yerington Copper Company, held
at the principal Office, 227 Virginia
street, Reno, on the Sd day of June, by
vote of the Board of Directors it was
decided to remove the office from Reno
to Yerington and establish the same at
the Office of Baker & Miller on Main
street.
In compliance with the resolution of
the Board the Office was removed as
above stated The affairs of the COM
pany are in a prosperous and most salts
factory condition and the work of driv-
ing the 400-foot tunnel progressing as
rapidly as possible. 1t is now under
cover ESQ feet and is just entering the
porphyry constituting the hanging wall
of the big vein.
1t is anticipated that an ore body will
likely be reached within the next 90
feet This is probable if the vein retains
the dip it has at the surface Should
this not occur and the vein straighten up
then the remaining 120 feet of the 400
foot tunnel will have to be driven to
reach the ore bodies.
No one reading the report of Professor
Hess, appearing i'll this issue as to the

look of the mines, and especially the

property OF the Reno Yerington Copper
company, can have any doubt as to the
value OF the group of claims owned bv
the company. of which Col. S. H. Baker
is now President.
The tunnel is well equipped with T.
rails, track, car, air pipes and every
thing necessary for the successful prose
cutlon OF the work. All this has been
accomplished with the private money of
the company, no stock having been
offered to the public.
The corporation fully expects that
when the ore body proper is reached
that its stock will be at par---S1 per
share
As mentioned heretofore, the tunnel
has already cut large blind vein. The
orr in this vein lies in streaks, not hav-
ing depth sufficient from the top of the
ground to make it solid. An ASSAY from
one of these streaks shows SO per cent.
copper. 1t is anticipated that the tun-
mel will be completed by August Is.
From the outcroppings of the big vein
on the surface, which is traceable for
5000 feet, it is more than probable when
this vein is opened by the tunnel that
one of the big mines of the zone will
have been opened up. and as the tunnel
is driven on the vein large depth can be
obtained.

RAILROAD SURVEY COMPLETE

Line people would be here this week to
look over the proposed route. but they
have not yet arrived. Just when con-
struction work will begin cannot be
stated but in all probability it will be in
the very near future, as the Southern
Pacific people have been brought to a
realizing sense of the necessity of a road
into this district by the great quantity of
freight which is being sent in.

NEARLY DROWNED LIKE BUCKSkIN CAMP

Geo. w. Bratten, of Norfolk, Va, and
I. w. Marchant and VIM. K. Hunter
of Los Angeles, paid Yerington visit
last Saturday and remained part of this
week. They had been to Buckskin
where they are interested in the National
Gold Mining Co., of that place. They
were very favorably impressed with what
they saw and will be back again in few
weeks. The National Co. has three
claims which were originally located by
Max Neidhart. In shaft sunk to a
depth of so feet on one OF the claims a
good showing of copper has been found,
the ore giving assays of l9 to 27 per cent
in the red metal The company is max
ing arrangements to put in an electric
hoist and other appliances as soon as
the power line reaches the camp and
will sink to water level and thoroughly
prospect the ground to that depth.
