MINING ON THE
MOUNTAIN
FULL FORCE TO RESUME
SHAFT SINKING OPERATIONS.
Feet Is Fine Specimen Of Mining
Engineering.

We refer to the mines on Winnie
mucca mountain. Up on the mountain
there are many good prospects, on
which surface values have been found
which indicate that bodies of i'm
mensely rich ore lie underneath.
Many mine is being operated in Ne
vada today with less prospect for pro-
fit than can be found in the claims on
the mountain. But these prospects
are at home and they escape notice.
In this connection, there are few
people in Winnemucca who are cog
infant Of the fact that a great mining
engineering feat is being undertaken
On the mountain, and that the shaft
being sunk. by the Intermountain Mot-
al and Mining company is the finest
specimen of the mining engineering
handicraft that can be found this side
of the comstoek lode. s ~
The shaft, which il double compart-
ment and now down 200 feet, will be
sunk eco feet more. At depth of
400 feet crosscuttnig tunnel will
be run and the ledge tapped Drifts
will then be run both ways in the
ledge. The object of tapping the ledge
at this depth is to get below the per-
manent water level
The m ne was great producer in
the carly days, 1t was worked down
to the water leved, when the ore de-
creased in richness. This decrease in
richness was due, according to the
theory of Superintendent Adamson,
of the Intermountain, to the rising
and FILLING of the water and the con-
sequcnt .eeching out of the values of
the rock. 1t iss therefore assumed
that the ledge bobw Che permanent
water level, where the ore has passed
through TO regular wet and dry stage,
above the water level
The theory involved, and the opera
tion already accomplished upon the
mountain shows the work of thorough
ly scie mt fic men, and the venture is
noteworthy and important.

find OF FABULOUS WEALTH
BY VERNON BOY

VERNON, Humboldt County, New,
Feb. IA strike and a stampede Of
the male population of Lovelock to
the hills at IL O'Clock at night may
result in the founding Of rich new
mining camp south and cast Of Yer
non and the Seven Troughs mining
district. The occasion of the excite
ment was a strike as unique and sen
sati0nal as was ever recorded in the
annals of mining, which brought TO
light gold in such startling quantities
that the whole neighborhood country
was temporarily crazed.
Arthur Bell and his brother in-law,
William Brown, a lad about II years
o'd, were doing development work on
claims in the hills between Lovelock
and Vernon, when the boy shouldercd
his pick and shovel and climbed the
h'll into zone of barren and very
forbidding looking granite. Thinking
the locality favorable for a fortune,
he struck his pick into the ground ard
began to dig The pick stuck, and in
wrenching it loose he was startled to
see free gold adhering to the point.
Almost insane with excitement, he
seized the shovel and cleared away the
debris that concealed a tiny stringer
Of quartz that was literally half gold.
Coarse gold in nuggets and wires and
flakes covered and permeated the
quartz. A pick and shovel piled by a
lad who was fairly intoxicated with
excitement soon opened up an eighteen
inch stringer OF this character.
Boulders Of quartz as big as the two
fists lay revealed, giittering with in
crustations of the yellow metal. 4
large broken boulder of this kind was
picked up and the two parts held
firmly together by the wires of gold
that passed from one to the other
Siezing several specimens, tae boy
rushed to his brother ,in-law and the
two entered Lovelock and showed the
sparkling treasure to gaping throng
of men. In a few minutes tho large
crowd had quietly escaped from the
various exits OF the saloon. Horses
werc appropriated from --t the livery
stables without notice and in less than
half an hour men were racing through
the moonlight for the scene of the
strike. At the discovery hole crowds
gathered and took turns with the pick
and shovel left by ;hc exc ted boy,
fillilg their pocise.s With the .ric..e It
orc ever seen in a region that has late,
fy become famous FOR its rich ores.
Eefore~-l0. o'clock next dry great
deal CT country had hcen located, ard
subsequently Tents have dotts a various
parts of this area and digging is 60.
ing on in more than a score of places
Assay returns justify the belief that
the area Of enrichm mt is wide.
One Of the results of the excitement
- tho sale of the prop rty on which
the strk was made to Utah people
fer tie suai, it is said, Of SIS 600 The
transaction, however, is kept PRO-
found secret. The hole, from which
several sacks Of specimens were taken,
IN addit on to the largo amount of ore
appropriated by the crowds on tho
night following the strike, has been
carefully covered up by tho new own
ers, and written notice threatens all
trcspaS sers with the dire conse quences
Of tie law.

With the great mining talk which
has succeeded the discovery Of rich
mines in Rosebud, Seven Troughs,
Dyke, and other Humboldt county
camps, the enthusiasts of the industry
who abide in Winnemucca are apt to
take little notice of what is doing in
mining circles at home and the pros
poets for rich mines in the immediate
vicinity.

Letter to George Rexroth.
McConnellsburg, Pa.

Dear Sir; We asked City Drug
Co., Crystal Springs, Miss, to
sell Devoe. They wanted to know
of their own knowledge, how 1t
compared with another paint
they knew all about-it was sold
right there, and considered good.
They painted the house of W.
B. McCluney two coats on pur-
pose to test the two paints against
one another one coat Devoe 6
gallons; the other coat that other
paint 10 gallons. Difference $50;
81 for pant, $13 for labor.
That other paint Is made IN
New Orleans; IS pure; is consid-
cred an excellent paint, and has a
good deal of local goodwill.
But the standard of paint has
been low all through the south
west. That paint is thin; it is,
you see, six.tenths of a paint.
Devoe saves $40 over it on half a
small job.
1t is a case of local best com.
pared with actual best.
Yours truly,
