NEVADA HILLS LEASERS
SOON TO SHIP HEAVILY

The events of one week at the Knox
lease on the Nevada Hills are sufficient
to call forth commentator for the man
ner in which the property is being han
died, says the Fairview News. While
several hundred tons of 500 ore has been
shipped away from the mine, there are
signs that preparations almost COM
pteted for doubling the production. Inc
trestle and dOuble-deck ore house Is prae-
ticaily ready for use, both cement foun-
datiOnS for the two additional engines are
completed and will be sufficiently set
for the machinery to be placed immedi-
ately upon its arrival, not later than
Tuesday of next week. There is second
engine of twenty-five-horse power capac-
ity and third engine of Sixty-horSe pow
er capacity. the first for a second hoist,
and the latter for running compressor
for air drills
The foundation for the second is i'm
mediately back of the one that is now in
operation, and a little to one side; il will
operate a ton-bucket in the second COM
partment of the shaft, and in this man
ner there can be no shut down for fall
duction is started. The compressor is
close in on the other machinery, and so
situated that one roof will cover all three
machines.
The shaft is now down 165 feet, COM
pleted since the contract for the second
100 feet was let. A station has been cut
at the 150-foot level, and the men are
now drifting there for the vein; by the
time the 100 level is reached with the
main shaft stopping will have been start
ed at 80, and the mine may be said to
have started on its period of sensational
production. Not later than July 10, min
ers will be working in the ore at the loo,
150 and 200 levels, with air drills, two
faces at each level to start with. and
nine men at each face every twenty-fOur
hours-all working in a high-grade vein
varying from three to six feet that goes
into the sack without any sorting, at
nearly SEQ per ton. while wherever there
is place for man to stand and work
he will be put on. Not later than Au
gust 10 the 80 and 300-foot levels will be
added, and from these lowest workings
the men will have fifty days in which to
extract the ore while from the 100, $50
and 200 they will have eight days time
until Sept. 80, at midnight.
There is no doubt that by July ID the
daily sacking at this lease will total
$1,000 for each twenty-fOuT hours, while
by the first of August it will reach
SIS, 600 and possibly $4,000. AS the COM
pany has ninety days in which to get the
ore off the ground, the first and only
consideration now is to get it on top be
fore Sept 60

AMERICAN FORK
WILL PRODUCE HEAVILY

The landslide in American Fork canyon
a few days ago has played havoc with
the designs of operators in that district.
The Wyoming company had already
placed about sixty teams on the job of
hauling ore down the canyon. but it is
going to be several days before it is pos
sble to get either up or down the can
Won on account of the slide. The Wyom-
ing company. ii is said, has enough ore
already blocked out to keep as many
teams as it is possible to get, shaking
down the ore. and other properties in the
camp promise to make a good showing,
also.
The recently organized Sunday Leasing
company, which has the famous old Sun
day silver-gold bonanza for three years,
was sending men and supplies up the
canyon ~ get things started when the
slide closed the road. It is expected that,
within sixty days after work is COM
menced at the Sunday ore will begin to
make its appearance in the market.

Mines and Mining Stocks

THE Riggs lease on the Gold Quartz,
which side-lines our property. and which
is being developed not more than 200 feet
from our ground on the same vein,
shipped out thirty tons of fine ore on
Tuesday. Hand samples are said to have
run better than $3.50 per ton in gold and
silver, and the lot is expected to average
up close to that figure, though hand sam
ping, of course, is sometimes deceptive.
Anyhow, it is mighty fine ore, and there
is lots more of it being developed in the
vein and taken out for shipment.
After sizing up conditions all around,
we all reached the conclusion that Grand
Victor was one of the best located propo-
sition in the camp; that is why everybody
wears a smile"

FROM RED MOUNTAIN

Ely July 3-Mike Cohen is in Ely from
White Cloud. Red Mountain and other
mining districts in the eastern part of
the county. He was accompanied by
James Burns, and the two located two
claims at Smith canyon and two at Siegel.
The last two claims are situated near
the Siegel cOmpany's property
Mr.. Cohen reports that Henry Allen and
a man named Perry have a group of silver
and lead claims at Red Mountain that are
showing up well. They have $50 sacks of
ore ready for shipment and will clear
$500 on the same. The ore averages %

There is hardly a precious stone that
has not some superstition connected
with it. The Neapolitans will wear
amulets of coral to avert the evil eye
and perhaps some will remember wear
Ing string of amber beads about their
necks during their childhood to ward
of sore throats. A piece of agate worn
on the person Is supposed to be an In
fallible guard against lightning and
some persons have asserted that 1t was
cure for thirst-what kind they did
not mention.
The beryl was by the ancients sup
posed to be a sure cure for leprosy ana
to promote happiness between man and
wife Turquoise Is said to be a protec-
ton against falls and sudden injuries
The topaz was highly priced by the an
clients, who believed that 1t had magi-
cal powers of dispelling entertainments
and calming frenzy.
The sapphire was believed by the an
clients to be emblematic Of chastity.
The pagans dedicated 1t to Apollo. The
green emerald is held in highest es-
TEEN by the Peruvlans and the wor-
shippers Of Mantu still believe that the
mines whence are extracted all emer-
aids are guarded by terrible genIi and
dragons.
Perhaps more superstition attaches
itself to the opal nowadays than to any
other stone. On the contrary the an
clients considered that this fiery gem
had the power Of rendering It's owner
lovable and also of bestowing on him
the gift of lnyisibillty.

WEALTH OF THE SOUTH

Remarkable Increase I'm Riches DUR

Last year the South, which Is less
