In less than two hours during a shift
last week over $4,000 worth Of high
grade was taken out of the Madigan
lease on the Daisy estate. Pocket of
phenomenal value are Of frequent oc-
currence. Every bit of the ore being
taken out is of milling value, while the
high grade is sacked as fast as 1t is en-
countered. This is shipped into Tono-
pah and the last shipment included the
$1,000 pocket"
The pay streak continues to widen
and at the same time shows no diminu-
ton in values. Mr.. Madigan is in per-
sonal charge of the work and resides on
the ground with his family in the Daisy
company house which has had an extern
sion built on the rear.
The Booth lease which is In charge of
w. w. Booth. Jr.. is located about 900
has been mining in good values. 1t is
not at all unlikely that additional cap
ital will be interested in this lease
within a month or six weeks and devel-
opment be taken up on a large scale. 1t
is understood that outside parties are
taking a lively interest in the property.
The Crescent and Solid Gold leases
which complete the quartet of Daisy
leasers are bending to their work as fast
as two shifts of men are able to ply
hammer and drill both night and day.
The Solid Gold is still going through
the rich stringers that it encountered
two weeks ago. All of this is being
sacked as high grade which is shipped
as fast as IL accumulates. Mr.. Johnson
with his son Edward A., are living at
the lease and watching the interests
of themselves and associates while the
latter are in the east making arrange
ments to forward a mill to be placed on
the property. A power hoist viii be for
warded also for the Solid Gold Ind gall

SHOSHONE MILL
DOING GOOD WORK

The Shoshone mill is working very
satisfactorily, according to the expert
opinion of Metallurgist F. NJ. Field and
Mill Foreman Shea, who were seen at
the property Thursday morning by a re-
porter for this paper.
Mr.. Keith was just putting away
SOM of the product of the big plant,
in the form of amalgam balls about the
size of gooze egg The mine man
handed one to the scribe, not to KEEP.
but to theft" and it was found that it
weighed 2h pounds, meaning that each
one of the many retorts which Mr..
Keith had in his depository was worth
about $40 in gold.
The mill is saving between 90 and 81
per cent of the values, which is con-
sidered very good. A few new screens
were put in this week, and the hope is
expressed by those having the plant in
charge that the mill will soon be up to
it's capacity of 205 tons of ore daily.
There are twenty men employed in the
mill. Many applications of mill men in
search of situations are received daily.
The management is reticent as to the
character of the ore that is being
treated at the Shoshone mill, but from
sources that are reliable the Miner is
able to say that the rock that is going
through the mill averages better than
S26 to the ton. OF this material there
is enough in sight in the Shoshone mine
at present time to keep the mill busy
for years.
The shipments of high grade ore con-
tinue to the smelter This mineral
runs $3.50 approximately. to the ton.
The Miner is advised. upon authority
that we consider reliable. that since
the mill was started about four weeks
ago. the product of the Shoshone mine
has been in the neighborhood of $780,
900. This. considering that the test
period for the mill has hardly yet been
passed, is remarkable. OF course these
figures include the returns from the
smelter.
From the SAM source of information
comes the following brief but import
ant statement:
when perfection has been obtained in
the operation of the big mill the Sho-
shone mine will be paying, in dividends.
at least $780, 900 every month in the
year.'-Bullfrog Miner.

be the Cubs opponents. He says
while all my men and myself are pull
ing for the White Sex to win the American
League pennant. we feel that the Philadel-
phia Athletics have the better chance.
Naturally. we have the greatest admi-
ration for the gameness and playing ability
Of the White Sox.
MY only chance of Judging of what is
likely to happen in the American League
race Is from what read in the papers, and
what / hear from the players. as we meet
them occasionally.
Il saw two of the Detroit games last
week. and was impressed with the playing
strength Of the Tigers. but after talking
with Jennings and few Of his men, l am
led to believe that the Athletics will win.
Even the Detroit players think this way
They told me
Everybody to whom L have spoken has
given the same reasons why the Athletics
should win. Connie Macks pitchers are
strong right now. and the break of the
schedule gives the team a long session at
home These are tremendous items. 1 can
tell YOU.
.Of course the Chicago National League
club has yet to win the pennant. but we
will win it for one very good reason-the
club Is far and away above the other clubs
in the league In playing strength. and Is
the best base ball team ever assembled in
this league or any other.
Naturally. we should like to meet the
White Sox-splendid fellows. all of them
in the final series. but it now looks very
much as though We ewould meet Connie
Macks team instead.

WHY THE ATHLETICS
WENT TO BAT FIRST

The following paragraph is self-eXplana-
tory and is from the pen of Horace Fogel.
the sporting editor of the Philadelphia
Telegraph
only a bit of clever generalship on the
part of the foxy Mr. Mack. Falkenberg.
when at his best is a pitcher to be feared,
The Athletics have a wholesome respect
for the prowess of this giant on days when
he is in good form. Connie knew Falk-
enberg to pitch in one of the two
games. and had planned to pit Waddel
against him. But he did not know in
which game Falkenberg would appear Ac-
cordingiy Manager Mack warmed up both
Waddell and Dygert. and being unable to
learn otherwise whether Falkenberg would
pitch the first or second game. he hit upon
the clever idea. of sending his team to bat
first. thus compelling Manager Cantillon to
show his hand When Oberlin opened the
first game Connie knew. it meant Falken-
berg in the second: hence he used Dygert In
the fist and held Waddell back for the
second to oppose Falkenberg. The fact Of
the Athletics going to bat first under the
should have been patent to
everybody. and was not done to change
their luck as some people thought. Why
should a winning team want to change its
luck?"

The rivalry between Bethany and Trinity.
Judging from the large attendance which
was present on the day their game was

ord-breaking one. These teams have a host
OF followers, and the feeling which exists
is very intense
Manager Luitich Of the Aloysius club will
undoubtedly send in Gallagher to do the
tWirllng. and Manager Dove has practically
settled on Jimmie Kerr as the box artist

The last game will be Trinity VS.. Alloy

Stephens Institute players, which team fin
ished second in the Capital City League
race, having been beaten for the champion

Special Dispatch to The Star.

BOSTON. Mass. September 6.-BoSton has
been fairly inundated the past week. Seem
ingly more water has fallen this week than
in two months past. The failure to get in a
double header yesterday made it four days
straight that il was impossible to get in
game. The clouds drifted away this morn
ing and the sun came out. but the grounds
are liable to he very sloppy indeed for the
go between the Pilgrims and Nationals this
afternoon.
1t is the first time this season that there
has been such thing as two successive
postponemcnts on either ground.
The Americans have rot had it nearly as
bad however. as the Nationals. The Am ri
cans have not lost a holiday here, while the
Nationals lost two.
Treasurer McBreen says that the trip of
the locals just completed was one of the
most successful financially in the history
of the club Big crowds were looked for in
the games with the WashingtOns this week,
and if the weather is fair tomorrow there
will doubtless be more than 1000 people on
the grounds. as the rootcrs are famished for
the game after the long lull.
Mcclure is extremely anxious to pass the
line ahead of the New York Americans. and
is very confident of his ability to do so
been cut down to five days. the Athletics
being hooked for three days next week and
then the club will so on another trip to
Philadelphia and Washington and return to
play the western teams.
RouSing turnOuts are expected for the
games with ConHe Maclls team The last
time the Athletics were here the locals
took three games out of four. and Mcclure
thinks he can down them again the next
visit. Much disappointment is felt be
cause jim Mcclure is free to admit that
the Nationals have a team that will make
his men hustle and he acknowledges he
will be extremely lucky if his men take
majority of the games to be played here
this visit
Mcclure intends to wade right in for a
first division place next season So many
players have been purchased and drafted
for his team that il is doubtful if John l.
Taylor or Mcclure can enumerate all of
them. The team ii has been going has
been fast enough for most of the lovers of
the game here. and few changes are desir-
able.
1t is expected that Parent will be able to
get into the game again this afternoon.
