RICH STRIKE IN
nevada Hills

The Nevada Hills mine at Fair
view is still keeping up its wonder
full record; and not only are they
getting the ore in the main workings,
but they have struck it on the
ground of the Nevada Hills Leasing
company.
Roger Knox yesterday received a
telegram from his brother, Edgar
Knox at Fairview, saying that in the
crosscut on the 100-foot level, the
leasing company had passed through
a 5-foot ore body, two feet of which
will go $773 a ton.
This is the first find of any i'm
portance that has been made on this
ground, although they have passed
through many stringers. A 25-horse
power gasoline hoist is now being
erected on the property. The latter
is controlled by the Knox brothers Of
Tonopah, f. M. Kirk of Cleveland
and Kirby, Lamb and Stoneham.
The Nevada Hills has struck il
again in tunnel No. 3, having en-
countered a three-foot body of ore
which will average $500 a ton. In
the past twenty-eight days the mine
has shipped over 100000.

THEY ARE ALL COMING.

And now Salt Lake is getting into motion regarding southern Ne
vada, and the preliminary steps are being taken for al excursion SINH
lar to that of the business e of Los Angeles. Thus far the iniha-
tive has been confined to the editorial work of the Salt Lake Tribune,
that newspaper urging the business men of its city to get busy. The
argument is made by the Tribune that Salt Lake has facilities for
handling the trade of southern Nevada which Los Angeles has not.
The Tribune goes farther than that and says that the trip should
be one especially adapted for the capturing of the trade, and that rep
resentatiye men should be sent here to show what the city has in the
way of mining machinery, what can be done in the way of rates; and
what Salt Lake a extend in the way of taking care Of good mining
stocks, and helping on in the development of meritonous mining prop
critics.
This is good talk, and the kind that W like to hear IN the out
side. We know what we have here, and now the business men of Los
Angeles know it. The Salt Lake people have known it for a long time
We I've don a great deal of business with Salt Lake and there is a
great deal of Salt Lake capital represented in the mining properties of
southern Nevada.
II is urged by the Tribune that the excursion be made later
thau the nenin OF the Clark road into Goldfeld. This will be in about
sixty days, when business in this country should be brisk, II the x
nerience of the past is any criterion. But why wait that long!

THE ROUND MOUNTAIN NUGGET.

The current issue of the Round Mountain Nugget is the first num-
Der of the second volume of the publication, celebrating the anniyer-
say Of its birth. Just a year ago when Round Mountain had hardly
reached the dignity of a camp, Henry Bartlett and James w. Travers
of Tonopah went there with a newspaper plant and installed the Nugget
The paper has grown up with the camp, and is a monument to the
ability and pluck of the young men who started it, and who have 1T yet
The Nugget has advertised the resources of Round Mountain in and
out of season, and the camp has proved more than worthy of the praise
and work lavhhed upon it. The paper is a publication that would be a
credit to any community, and the residents of Round Mountain are just
ly proud of it; and they will back its editors and proprietors to a la
in any enterprise.
Mr.. Bartlett in particular, has IN able and a facle pen, and has
set forth the resources of the camp in a manner that has brought the
people to it, He has the happy knaek of presenting things as they are,
vet in a way that invites attention and carries conviction.
The Nugget now carries the Information Typographical Union label
1t the head Of its column and on all job work. It was only after hard
ordinate unions extends only within a radius of thirty-fve miles, while
Round Mountain is considerable farther than this from Tonopah. Owing
to the character of the mel employed on the Nugget and the disposition
of the propretors to have only union men, a dBpensation was granted
them; and the privilege given to use the label granted to the Nugget
by the International Typographical Union, subject to the laws and the
scale of prices of Tonopah Typographical Union GIG.

LIN RETURN FROM TRIP
TO WONDER.


w. J. Douglass and J. J. Mullin,
who left about ten days ago for San
Francisco, returned yesterday in com-
pany with c. B. Zabriskie, vice presi.
dent of the Spider and Wasp Mining
company of Wonder. Mr.. Zabriskie
was picked up in San Francisco, and
the big auto of Messrs. Douglass and
Mullin met the party at Hazen and
carried them to Wonder, and from
there to Manhattan, from where they
came to Tonopah.
This was Mr.. Zabriskie's first trip
to Wonder said Mr.. Mullin, "and he
was much pleased with his trip, as
was Mr.. Douglass at the showing in
the Spider and Wasp and the Won
der Central mines. Mr.. Johnson,
general manager of the Spider and
Wasp, has devoted most of his time
to surface improvements. He has
put up the office and dwelling house,
blacksmithshop and clubhouse.
I'VE are also sinking a double
compartment shaft for the company's
workings; and the grading has been
completed for the shaft house and
hoist building. We are expecting the
hoist daily, and it will be installed
Immediately upon arrival.
Work is going on in the various
leases right along, and there are good
showings from all of them in opening
up the property. Two of the leases,
in particular, are in very good ore.
We have two carloads of mining tim
Der and lumber on the ground, and it
is the intention of the management
to sink a vertical shaft several hun
dred feet, so that we may explore the
lodges at great depth. We are all
much pleased and Mr.. zabiskie was
elated at the outlook for the Spider
and Wasp.
AT Manhattan Mr.. Douglass and
Mr.. Zabiskie inspected the Manhat-
tan Consolidated, of which Mr.. Doug
lass is president, and found the mine
in better condition than ever. While
none of the parties ~ interested IN

of the property, there was a natural

GRAND LODGE

TION AT RENO NEXT
THURSDAY.

The thirty-fifth annual convention
Of the Knights of Pythias Grand
Lodge of the domain of Nevada, will
convene at Reno next Thursday 1t IL
O'Clock in the morning.
There is going to be a great time
in Reno, when the Knights and their
ladies reach there, and arrangements
have been made whereby reduced
railroad rates have been secured
from all points in Nevada. Tickets
will be good from the Sth to the 18th,
going, and will be void, returning,
after the goth.
The rates from Goldfield to Nina
and return will be 1915; and from
Tonopah to Nina and return, $5.55.
The D. o. X. K. will have it's an
nual celebration in conjunction with
the convention, and there will be a
hot time in the old town when they
get started, and they promise to start
as soon as they hit the town. This
celebration, it is promised, will be the
greatest ever, new features having
been incorporated, particularly the
18th order of business, which is said
to be something fercer than the third
degree. And the banquet will be one
of the greatest features of the cere-
monial.

not wait until there a one road through from Los Angeles to Tono-
.pah.
Manana is not a popular word in southern Nevada. The motto Of
the people here is do it now This is just as good a time as any to
come; perhaps better than it would be later. The people have more
time to listen to business propositions than they may have later on
They are always ready to do business on business principles.
But whether Salt Lake comes now or comes later, there will be a
welcome here for her excuraonbts. We are always glad to see people
interesting themselves in our section. The more we meet, the wider
are ur resources advertised; and with regard to the latter, We have
nothing to hide. The fact that there is such a determined effort being
made for the trade of southern Nevada, shows that the outside world
has awakened to the possibilities and opportunities of the country.
