NEPHEWs CONTEST A WILL
Suit Jeopardizes Requests to Fifteen,
Charitable Institutions, Aggre-
eating $15O,OOO.

Milwaukee, July By contest IN
augurated against the will Of the late
Judson A. Roundy by Rufus A. Hard
ing, of Wake county, N. c., and John
R. Harding, Of Champaign, H., be-
quests to fifteen charitable and educa-
tional institutions, aggregating nearly
$4,000, are jeopardized. The con;
testants are nephews of Roundy,
and Rufus Harding was not remem-
bered in his uncle's will. The other
received a bequest Of $1,000.
The contest is based on alleged mu-
tiiations and the allegation that a codi-
Gil executed last August is not in ac-
cordance with the statutes. Wayland
academy at Beaver Dam and the Wis
consin state Baptist convention were
the largest benefciaries, dividing
about $4,000 between them.

EXtortiOn by Italian Thugs.
Pittsburg, July 3-Trembling be-

Magistrate Brady's court Mrs Stella
Pagana, an Italian woman, told story
Of how her savings of years had been
extorted from her by two of her fell
low cOuntrymen whose methods, il her
story is true, rival those of the Mace
DOMAIN brigands for savage brutality,
Giuseppe Furcio and Frisco Bartimora
had been arrested upon complaint Of
Mrs. Pagana, who alleged that the two
men had from time to time deman e4
money by threatening letters The de-
mands were for $50 and $50 at time.
So frequent were Furcio's and Barti-
roma's demands that the bank account

sell their property.
She Feared for Her Life.
Her husband knew nothing Of this,
she said, as she feared that if she told
him she would be killed The last time
she gave Furcio money was on Friday,
she said She was now reduced to
penury, she declared, hut her OBJ
pressors persisted in their demands
that she raise money for them, and
she had accordingly determined to

THE PEACOCK MINING GROUP
Los Angeles Company Operating Valu-
able Property in the State of
Arizona

Development work has begun on the
Peacock group of claims belonging to
the Mckinley Mining and Development
company. These properties are located
about seven miles west of Prescott,
Ariz.. one mile from the S. F., p & p.
railroad in the Copper Basin mining
district. The original locator of the
properties and president of the COM
pany has just returned to Los Angeles
after installing a complete camp equip
ment and putting a full crew Of men
at work.
The surface indications are reported
remarkable, the lodges of enormous
size and the ground generally miner
allied and copper stained for several
hundred feet. The reports from the
mines are that while the workings are
only down about thirty feet the veins
Of iron and copper sulphides encoun-
tered and the copper stained gouges
coming in indicate that large quantity
Of shipping ore will soon be on the
dump, which will put the mine on a
paying basis. The shaft is now being
sunk on a solid and continuous body
of ore, and as depth is attained values
increase. The close proximity of the
properties TO the railroad and the
abundance Of timber and a lple water
supply are all features Of great COM
mercial value to the company.

BUILDERS
RACING TO RHYOLITE
Unusual Activity Shown by the Competing Com
panies-Depots and Warehouses in
the BullrOg Mining Towns

The Las Vegas & Tonopah Railroad
company has started the construction
of it's freight depot at Rhyolite. The
building will be 80 by 142 feet and the
platform room will be 56 by 207 feet.
The depot is being erected on the Yam
kee Girl fiat, near the several ware
houses which have been constructed by
local merchants, says the Bullfrog
Miner.
There is no letup in the freight busi-
ness into Rhyolite over the Los Vegas
& Tonopah. The yards are full to over
flowing all the time, and the end is not
in sight Lumber continues to arrive
in great quantities and many carloads
of machinery are coming in.
Good progress is being made on the
grade west of Bonanza mountain en-
route to Goldfeld. The grade is prac-
tically finished from the base of the
Denver gulch to the Original Bullfrog.
From there it passes west through the
pass skirts the big mountain and goes
up the canyon within about three
fourths of a mile of the Gold Bar, then
swings back westerly across the valley
within a mile of the Black Spar. In
getting over the Mud Springs summit
distance is developed to overcome the
grade. Going over the summit the road
passes on the west side of the valley,
close to the Foster & Hensey proper
ties and beyond the summit passes
within a mile of Currie's wells.
The grading camps are out several
miles from the Original Bullfrog and
good progress is being made. At Rhy-
olite rock work is being done directly
under the Golden Sceptre shaft on the
east side of Bonanza mountain, to
which point the track was laid last Sat

MAGNES|TE MINE
WILL Be OPENED

Preliminary steps have been taken
for the early development Of magne-
site deposits near Winchester. A few
days ago a company of Los Angeles
capitalists filed articles of incorpora-
tion in the county clerks office under
the name of the California Magnesite
company. The scale on which oper-
atoms will be conducted is indicated by
the capitalization of the company,
which is 100000, fully subscribed. The
directors of the company and the
amount of stock subscribed by each
are: w. S. Withers, $153,5OO; ]. r. Nc
Lead, $4,000; C. E. Payne, $4,000; F.
Yale Adams, $4,000; w. H. Young,
$22, 300; S. A. Pawley, $44,500. Los An
geles is named as the principal place of
business.
The company's holdings include half
section of land located about three
miles southeast of Winchester. The
magnesite deposits ware discovered sew
eral years ago, but heretofore the
necessary capital to develop them has
not been available. 1t is believed that
the deposits are not only rich in
quality but extensive in quantity.

STRIKES
AROUND BULLFROG

Billy Milliken, manager of the Bull
frog Victor, showed the reporter of the
Bullfrog Miner a big boulder which
was literally covered with free gold.
The rich stuff was from the same vein
that produced the sensation short
time ago, but it has grown wider and
richer. On top the vein was between
eight and ten inches. 1t is now two feet
wide, having uniformly increased in
width and value with depth.
Jimmy Hughes the well known Echo
Lee pioneer and mining man, reported
the uncovering of some good values on
the Gold Top No. l. claim, owned by
himself and Jack Thomas. While doing
their annual work ledge was uncov-
cred that measured on the surface ten
inches, and assayed $1270 AT ten feet
deep it has widened to two and half
feet and an average assay of the
ledge gave a return of $780, The
property adjoins the Bradshaw and
Paymel claims on the north and is near
the famous Hicks & Leavitt mine.
On Wednesday the miners on the
North Star broke into the big vein for
which the tunnel is being run. The last
shots disclose a magnificent wall, stand
ing almost perpendicular, but dipping
slightly eastward at the bottom. The
vein matter is a fine grain and partly
decomposed quartz, which pans a reg
ular streak. This vein showed a thick
ness of more than six feet in the upper
level The ledge in question was opened
up at depth of fifty feet some time
ago. Here it was six feet wide and
gave assays as high as $31S At this
depth, 100 feet more, it should do much
better, both for value and extent.
