the perfeetion of the machinery

ORE TEAMS LACKING
ALL OVER STATE

Jim Russell is up from the Great
Western mine at Lima Point, in the
Gold Mountain district, seeking teams
to haul four cars of ore to the loading
station at Cuprite. 1--WE have 1000
sacks of ore piled up on the dump
said Russell, land can take out car
every two days if we could get teams
to haul it, There is more ore in the
mine than ever before. OF course, it
is safe enough there, but we need the
money. We want to sink the shaft
another 100 feet, or 200, and it costs
money"
On the 100-foot level, in the east
drift Russell says the entire force
of the drift is in shipping ore and
holes which have been poked into the
footwall side show the same condi-
tions. In the raise from the 100
foot level, which has been connected
with Wine from the so, the same
ore shoot is in evidence, close by the
shaft, with a rake to the east, In
the west drift, which was driven out
on the 100-foot level to tap the gold
shot, the face is entering the edge
of the ledge and few more days
should demonstrate it's value.-Gold-
field Chronicle.

SOLDERING GOODS WANTED.

United States Vice-Consul .Santi of
Milan sends report on the correct
way to introduce American prepare
lions in Italy. He states:
MANY different mixtures are used
ing preparations, but they are nearly
all primitive. There are some patent
ed articles on the market, but they
do not seem promising, as the italian
user in general would rather use a
mixture containing muriatic acid,
which he has always used, than risk
novelties. The success of the Ameri-
can article depends on its price and
it's results, and to exploit it correctly
on the Italian market the American
firms must send full line of samples
to each user with directions for use,
together with prices and terms of
sale.
italians should be induced to try
the article at the expense of the
American firm and Instructions for
use should also be given. The Ital-
ian consumption of these goods is not
very great, but it is large enough to
be worth while of some American
firm to establish a good business in
Italy after the various customers
have tried the soldering preparations
and they have proven satisfactory in
every way.
Solder wax in sticks pay $1.93
duty per 220 pounds entering Italy,
and wrappers or cardboard boxes
containing them pay separately

ORE FOUND ON LEASE IN
Blackboard At MANHATTAN

In the tunnel on what Is known as
the Hickey lease on the Blackboard
claim above Manhattan, ore has been
struck. 1t is almost cinch that the
leasers on this tract of ground will
come out to the good as they are
after what is believed to be the Cram
La Lime ledge. 1t is more than prob
able that the April Fool ledge, which
was opened up by January Jones, is
also a continuation of this ore body
in it's westward course on the north
side of the Manhattan canyon.
The Blackboard people are there
fore guided in their operations by
very rich showings on each side of
them. The ore struck in the tunnel
is of milling grade and similar in
character to that which is causing a
mild sensation on Union 4.
With Mr. Hickey in this lease are
George Woods and Senator Charles
Chillingworth of Honolulu.
Messrs. Samuels and Baum, the
popular showmen who are now hold
ing forth to good audiences at the
Horseshoe, are also operating a
lease on the Blackboard.

OPAL MINING TO Be
BIG NEVADA INDUSTRY

A discovery that will completely
change the now prevalent idea that
gold, silver, copper and lead mines
are the principal factors in Elko
county, is that of a Mexican opal bed
two and one-half miles north of Tus-
carora, says the Tuscarora News. e.
A. p. Johnson, one of the owners,
told representative of the Mining
News that the Gaping of this bed,
which most prospectors would term
jasper, is traceable for at least a mile,
and when examined closely different
colors can be seen.> Experts pro-
nounce this as stains from the opals
which lie in the matrix underneath.
A shallow hole has been sunk and
the matriX uncovered so there can be
no doubt but that it is the real thing
especially on panning any of the
matrix a great deal of opal shavings
can be seen in the concentrates.
Mr.. Johnson took sample of the
Gaping to Oakland and three diff
ferent experts, men who have been
connected with the Mexican opal
mines for years, when passing the
mineral exhibit of the Nevada Hy-
draulic Mining and Milling company,
where the rock was on display, in
quired as to where it came, and were
very much surprised when informed
that it came from Nevada. All of
them described how opals were found
and said that the Gaping was a sure
sign.
This new discovery means a new
industry for Elko county as it is the
only place outside of Mexico where
this character of opals are said to
be more permanent than the Aus
tralian kind

GOOD PROGRESS ON
ROAD FROM THE NORTH

Parties who have arrived in Win
nemucca from the north reported
that on the other side of the Snake
river there is a long line of men and
teams throwing up the grade for the
San Francisco, Idaho and Montana
railroad and that the work is being
rushed toward the river, where prep
arations are being made to put in the
big bridge, says the Humboldt Star.
A town of considerable size has
sprung up on the banks of Snake riv-
err where the bridge is to be put in.
The contractors that are doing the
grading are favoring local people and
harvesting their crops their teams are
put on the new railroad work.
John Sibbald, president of the Col
conda Cattle company and who is one
of Humboldt county's most substan-
tial ranchers and stock raisers, ar
rived from Caldwell few days ago.
He said that in conversation with Mr..
Plaisted, who has charge of the con-
struction work at Caldwell, the lat
ter stated it is the intention of the
promoters of the railroad to build
the road to Winnemucca, the object
i've point, as soon as possible. The
citizens of Caldwell will give bonus
of $40, to the company as soon
as the bridge is constructed across
the Snake river.
When the San Francisco, Idaho &
Montana railroad is completed to
Winnemucca the distance from Boise
City to San Francisco will be 900
miles shorter than at the present
time, giving the people of that coun-
try better market for their prod
ucts. Over the present routes, the
distance from Boise City to the Pa
cific coast being 1900 miles, and the
shortening of the route by 900 miles
means a great deal to the people of
southern Idaho and the part of Ne
vada which the road will traverse.
