LONG DISTANCE FACILITIES

AS member OF the national Bell telephone
system, the Providence Telephone Company is con-
nected with the only long distance service reaching
all parts of the country
The lines of the Bell system cover the United
States and reach more than 10000 cities towns and
villages. Because the Providence Telephone Com
panied is allied with the other companies in the Bell
system it can offer to its patrons facilities for talk
ing by telephone only in Rhode Island but also
over lines radiating through New England and the
Middle and Atlantic States and stretching beyond
these limits to the Great West, the Southern States
and northward to the Dominion of Canada
The long distance lines built by the American
Telephone and Telegraph company, the central or
ganzation of the Bell system, constructed of
heavy copper wire and designed to carry telephone
messages maximum distances These lines,
representing an investment of more than $3sooo,-
900, serve avenues of speech for long distance
messages to and from the territory of the Provi-
dence Company.
Toll and long distance lines in the Bell system
being equipped with the style of instruments
connected through switchboards of similar pattern
oand operated under like methods and conditions
afford better results as to service than could be
obtained if different kinds of Instruments varying
types of switchbroads and apparatus and dissimar
methods of operation should be employed.

Two shifts are sinking a shat on the
Golden Dawns which is down about so
feet on the ledge. A good quantity of
ore is being taken out.
The shaft on Wonder View is in bout
100 feet. 1t is expected that the ledge
will be cut at a very short distance
farther in. Two shifts are at work.
Work will be resumed on the Joe
Wonder within a few days. when Wal
lace MacGregor, general manager of
the company. reaches Wonder. The tun
mel has been driven so feet, and some
good ore cut.
On the Vulture work is still devoted
chiefly to the upraise and to driving
the tunnel, which is in about $50 feet.
There is no foundation to the rumor
that the development activity is to be
temporarily suspended.
The shaft on the National Wonder is
in as feet on the ledge, and ore is being
sacked daily. The property. which adj
joins the Jack Pot, is controlled by Mar
win Ish and associates, who also hold
the controlling interest in the Jack Pot,
the Ruby, the Hercules, and Globe.
A road is being built into Wonder
from the Stray Horse for the hauling
of provisions and mining supplies. A
couple of tunnels are being driven. one
of which is in over 800 feet on an excel
lent body of ore. Ten men are working
on the property. John Holland. the
superintendent. is about to leave for a
six weeks vacation.
Crosscutting is in progress at the

S%EARCHLIGHT CAMP

Searchlight. New, July 30.-Pursuant
to it's policy. to do things. the manage
ment of the Stanley Forbes Extension
has just installed its new camp and will
aggressive development work
Immediately. The property lies due
south. adjoining the Stanley Forbes and
having $500 feet of the wonderfully
rich vein that enriches that property
and on which such bonanza ore has been
developed. The work so far on the
Extension has more than shown up
promising values as several pieces OF
specimen ore has been found while
trenching across the monster vein that
by the company.
G. w. Meyer has left for the East to
arrange for a complete equipment of
the finest machinery o~btainable to facili-
tate rapid development. Upon the ar
rival Of this, work will be FASTENED.
as it is the intention of Superintendent
JOS. Macarthur to sink to water level
on the vein ard commence extracting
the ore.
To late the principal work consists
Of several prospect shafts, ope cuts
and many feet of trenching, showing
three well defined true insure veins, all
carrying excellent values. Good horn
ing can be obtained or the surface all
along the vein on the Nevad Girl for
a distance of 1900 feet. At the bottom
Of a 40-foot shaft on this claim, there
is three feet of fine looking quartz,
carrying several ounces in gold per ton.
From a director of the company 1t
was ascertained that the management
intended leasing the New Era mill in a
short time and make a trial run .
The Searchlight Comstock lying about
a mile west of the Extension is await
ing the arrival of it's complement of ma
chinery, when sinking will be resumed
at once. The recent sensational strike
on this property is holding out well,
and at a depth of IS feet, there is two
feet of ore in the shaft.

Operations are to begin at once on the
estate of the Manhattan Gold Dollar
Mining company under the personal
supervision of Miss B. NJ. Wilson,. resi-
dent manager. The property is located
1900 feet north of the Thanksgiving
mine. 1t is the intention to sink a
shaft at the southwest corner of the
acreage with the expectation of catch
ing several of the north and south cross
assures making in from the Thanks
giving and Rocklin.

THE WEEKS DEVELOPMENTS
in THE WONDER DISTRICT

35 feet in the crosscut. The work is
being lone by contract.
The Imperial Wonder shaft is down
20 feet. Crosscuts will be started at
the 10O-foot level. A 15-horse power
hoist is on the way from Fallon.
Owing to a lack of timbers the hoist
on the Wonder Witch which arrived
sine days ago is not yet in place. but
the shaft is being sunk steadily in a
highly promising formation.
The Quartzite shaft is down so feet,
and an excellent grade of quartz has
been cut. The work will be pushed
steadily throughout the summer. and in
the fall a big hoist will be installed.
Work on Daisy Wonder is being
pushed with vigor in the shaft. which
is in about 100 feet. The 25-horse power
hoist is bringing out rock which is con-
stantly looking better. The expectation
is that one of the rich lodges of the
Nevada Wonder. which adjoins the
Daisy. will be cut in a very short time.
A contract will be let on the Black
Rock next week to sink on the south
leUge from tHt tuHntf, WHICH IL III 100

face that big values in both gold and
silver were obtained some time ago.
1t is 24k feet wide. and is showing
increasing values with depth.

shaft, down so feet. has been resumed
The intention Is TO erosseut at the
100-foot level to the ledge. which is
believed to be an extension of one of
those on the Spider-wasp. and which
showed excellent surface values.-won-
