Mr.. Wallace Macgregor, mine mana
ger for the Sullivan Trust company, has
opened up a new vein on h Tisson
which a tunnel has been started and is
now in 40 feet. The vein is 4 to 5 feet
in width and the groupings on the sur
face give assays of $1O.S6 in gold the
ton. The recent big strike on the Eagles
Nest opened up by No. 2 shaft on the
strike of the Fairview Eagle vein. will
intersect the new ledge upon which
the tunnel is being driven, at about rs
feet from the shaft which will form a
new junction close at hand. At this
point the length of vein carrying high
values, in the opinion of Mr.. Macgregor,
will be greatly extended. Still another
vein has been discovered on the Eagles
Nest, which has not yet been developed.
The Eagles Nest Mining company's
property is one of the most promising
in the Fairivew district, and the area
of the property, the size of the lodges
and the values of the ore are such as
to warrant the new directors of the
Sullivan Trust Company to wax enthu-
siastic over the future outlook. 1t is
the intention Of the company to expend
every available %esource in the develop
ment of the property, with the object
in view of ~uncovering the values which
are in sight and restoring the stock to
it's true level.

President William Huggard of the
Golden Dawn Mining company took a
party of friends out to the Stonewall
district last Sunday and showed them
over the country, incidentally giving
them an opportunity to see and m
the wonderful showing made on the
Golden Dawn group since development
work was started a short time ago. The
shaft is down so feet and the company
is preparing to crosscut to tap the great
ledge. The ledge is thirty feet wide
on the surface and averaged across the
entire width 81 a ton. A prospecting
shaft was put down ten feet above the
main shaft and the ledge exposed for
ten feet across. the average assays be-
ing 1860. A rich streak. from which
a sample was taken by Engineer Alex
Hamilton, assayed 1921 a ton.
Mr.. Huggard entertained his guests
in lavish style and after lunch took
them up about two miles from the mine
to show them where the unlimited sup
ply of water came from. A big water
fall suddenly met their astonished gaze
and made them forget for a time that
they were supposed to be in the midst
of a waterless desert. The picnic was
enjoyed by Alex Hamilton, f. J. Sweet
land, Charles Mattick, Stanley Chapman.

The first detailed report of develop
ment work done on the Stray Dog mine
at Manhattan, since the reorganization
of the Sullivan Trust company in jan
uary last, has just been mad public.
The quartz veins opened up on the
property. are fou in number and are
oxidized to a depth of 215 feet, as so
far shown by the development. There
are seven shafts on the property. the
deepest being Nos. /. 2 and 3, which
are 365 feet. 100 feet and 20 feet respec-
lively. At the 265-foot level the vein
carries %sulphides. The veins are strong
and continuous and vary in width, many
places being six to eight feet wide.
Starting on the 1OO-foot level in No.
/ shaft, a winze was sunk on the vein
for so feet in depth. and samples taken
at regular intervals down this winze
gave assays Of $62 in gold per ton,
1920 in gold per ton, s72 in gold per ton,
$40 in gold per ton, $50 in gold per ton
and $40 in gold per ton respectively, or
an average of over ST. in gold per ton.
Assays taken from No. 2 shaft at the
265-foot level, show values of $40 and
s112 in gold per ton. There is a large
quantity of ore sacked and ready for
shipment on the property, and this ore,
as shown by the assays, has an average
value of s126.54 in gold per ton. At one
point in the ledge in the s0-foot winze,
the ore assayed 5000 in gold per ton.
The Stray Dog claim is said to show
one of the greatest mineralized areas
Of the entire Manhattan district, and
the evolution of the property from a
prospect into a mine. has been definitely
accomplished. Levels will now be run
every SO feet and the ore blocked out
for shipping and milling.

Tonopah. May s.-The mills of the
production Of the last two weeks had
been something phenomenal, and the
change when it comes will be an in
crease rather than a decline.
The entire output for the present week
has not yet been computed but the his
tory of the two preceding weeks. last
weet, ana the week before VIII give an
idea of what is being taken out OF the
ground in the way of money.
The shipment of high grade ore of the
Tonopah Company alone. for the past
two weeks has amounted to 1880 tons.
in addition to which there have 1900
tons gone through the mills. The entire
hundre stamps of the big mill at Mil
ler's have beer dropping all this time,
as have the twenty of the Midway mill
owned by the same company.
A conservative return from the smelt-
ers would be a hundred dollars a ton.
and that from the mills not more than
thirty dollars a ton. 1t is a simple
problem in multiplication to determine
what this will figure in the way of pro-
duction in the year. The value of the
output to the shelters for the two
weeks is s206. 000, and that ent to the
mills, $3.50, 900. or a total of 1866. 900.
This means an output of $1S2,50 a
week, or $9 ,49O, 900 annually.
1t was stated some time since that
the output of the big company would
be between SO, 600, 900 and s12, 900, 900
a year. and at the start these figures are
not far put. This means long and con-
tinuous dividends for the stockholders.

Mr.. Gillies will be back here in a few

Gillies and Schwab had to do with the
construction of a hundred-stamp mill
for the Tonopah Extension. and hat all
arrangements for the structure have
been completed: that the site has been
selected at Min's.
Tonopah Extension never looked In

time, nor were the prospects ever bright

there will be resumed activity on that
property. There is no doubt that the
mine has the continuation of the Mid
way ledge through the Montana Midway
Extension. and 1t is only reasonable to
surmise that the owners will go after
the ore.

where there used TO be many. he voted for
prohibition and would do 10 again II another
election was held In Greenviile. But We did
not understand him to be In favor Of State
prohibition. We believe he thinks eacn COM

in other words. he believes In home rule.
he is one Of the authors OF the Cary-Cothran
law, to which this newspaper was opposed at
tho time OF It's enactment, but we think now
that II is the best liquor law that we ever
had.
Our sister State, Georgia. is to try prohibi-
ton after the first OF January. And the SEN
timent in many other States 10 crystalising

idea that the Legislature Of South Carolina
will in January pass prohibition law yet We
believe that prohibition Will be mighty live
