SENSATIONAL
MANHATTAN find

What is probably the greatest
strike in the history of Manhattan
has occurred within the past few
days and as a result another boom
is likely to be forthcoming in the
northern camp. While doing assess
ment work on the Combination claim
of the Manhattan Comstock a vein
three feet wide was exposed averag-
ing over $50 in gold. The vein was
encountered in the shaft after a
depth of t%hirty-three feet had been
Is creating a remarkable stir in Man
haitian and the find is the general
topic of discussion. The property
adjoins the Idaho claim, which be-
longs to the Manhattan Dexter, and
is next to the Cat Bird group. The
foot wall or the hanging wall have
not yet been encountered and the
vein gives every evidence of depth
and permanency. The officers of the

of milling ore on the ground. 1t has
been the source of considerable COM

fortune had really smiled upon the

BOARD OF TRADE
RECEIVES NOTICE

The local Board of Trade is high
lyelated over the result of the efforts
of the Nevada Association of San
Francisco in securing the additional
train service between San Francisco
and California. The local board has
been working hard on the question
and deserves much credit for their
%endeavors. The necessity of another
train has been manifest for some
time and so strong was the need
that eve the local road admitted the
adyisability of an increased service.
While the exact details are not
known 1t is believed that the new
train will be equipped with a diner,
which will add greatly to the COM
fort of the passengers. 1t is also
believed that a mail car will be car
ried so that two mails will be re-
ceived each day, which will result
in a saving of over twelve hours. II
is also thought that the second train
will leave in the evening for the
Coast at such an hour as to permit
passengers so designing to stop off
at Reno the following morning and
spend the day in the city, catching
the evening train for San Francisco
and arriving in the bay city at the
same time as at present, with the
additional advantage of having spent
a day in Reno for the transaction
of business. This feature Of the in
%novation will appeal strongly to a
large number of citizens who have
important matters to attend to in
Reno, but whose time is greatly
limited. The following is the tele-
gram received yesterday morning by
Mr.. H. F. Sheldon, president of the
Board of Trade:
San Francisco, Jan. IA, 1907.
M. f. Sheldon, Esq,
Pres. Tonopah Board of Trade,
Tonopah, Nev.-As a result of re-
cent visit and subsequent confer
ences, Southern Pacific Company,
commencing February 3, will install
double daily service between San
Francisco, Reno, Tonopah and Gold
field. Our hearty congratulations.
Nevada Association of San Francisco,
ANDREW CARRIGAN,
Vice President.
At a meeting of the Board of
Trade the matter was discussed and
as a result the following reply was
sent to Mr.. Andrew Carrigan, vice
president of the Nevada Association:
Tonopah, Jan. Is, 1907.
Andrew Carrigan,
Nevada Association of San Fran
cisco, st. Francis Hotel-We don
our hats to your association. Your
work is the happy comment OF all
here. Our committee will give prac-
tical proof of appreciation when they
meet with you this month.
Tonopah Board of Trade,
II. f. SHELDON, President.
With the adoption of the new
schedule Tonopah and the Coast will
indeed be brought closer together
and material benefits are sure to re.
suit.

TERRITORIAL ITEMS

Application for the purchase from the Chiricahua forest reserve of o,ooo, GOO feet of timber on Cave creek has been made. The Paradise Record says if this sale goes through it will be the largest ever made from this reserve. Some time ago the Copper Queen com pany considered applying for the purchase of 10000, 1000 feet and later thought of making applica- ton for five times that amount, deferring action, however, until the expiration of their contract in the Sacramento mountains in New Mexico. Later the Commonwealth company, of Pearce, negotiated for the purchase of 1000, 900 feet, which, it is understood, they can have when desired. It is well known that several different min ing companies in Paradise are keeping their eyes on the Chiri- cabua forest reserve timber. And in the very near future strenuous scrambles for possession of this timber are sure to occur.

The grading for the new 300 ton smelter of the Imperiam Mining company, to be located near Red Rock, will be completed and ready for the construction of the plant by March I. Pursuant to the completion of the grading the track will be laid and the ma chinery and timber for the smelt- CT, which is already on the ground unloaded. Upon the completion of this smelter there will be a market for all of the ores in the Silver Bell district, which will put a number of mines into develop ment, as they can be ore shippers from the grass roots.

POSSIBLE CHANGES
New Professors Possible at .hs Ma
val Academy

Naval circles attach more or less
importance 10 the changes which have
been authorized by the Navy De
partment at the Naval Academy as a
result Of the recommendation Of the
Wainwright board. There will be an
increase in the time allotted to stu
dents under sea going officers, with
the general idea that Contact with
commissioned officers will be Of ben
eft TO the midsbipmeD.
one or two additional officers will
be detailed for duty as heads Of de-
partments, with q net gain Of prob
ably one sea-going officer on the fac
ulty. An important question soon
to be decided is who will succeed
Prof. n. X. Rawson, head Of the De-
partment Of English, who goes on
the retired list in February. IL is
possible, Of course, that Professor
RawsOn may be Teappointed. His
department has hitherto included law
and this will be added 10 the sea
manship department.
1t is declared in naval circles that
International Law and the allied sub
iects Of court and board practice con-
sfitute work that may very well be
conducted by naval officers. still an
other result Of the changes will be the
selection Of head Of the department
Of mathematics. The choice appeaFs
to rest between Professors Of Mathe-
