AN AWKWARD o

The earl Of Spencer, who, before
he succeeded his father, was Wis
count Althorp, confessed, at a re-
cent reunion at Harrow, that one Of
the most awkward moments Of his
life occurred while he was a pupil
at the great public school.
He was present, he said, in the
Vaughan library when the king,
then prince Of Wales, visited Har-
COW.
The book in which the minutes of
the debating society were recorded
was shown to the royal visitor. As
fate decreed, the page on which it
opened contained this resolution:
"That regicide is justifable,
movsd by Viscount Althrop."
The boy did not know where to
look, but the prince merely smiled,
as if it were the most natural thing
in the world for a loyal subject to be
in favor Of making way with the

Quite a shipment of samples of the
roasted ore was brought in yesterday

character as that which excited SC
much comment some time ago.
Manhattan is becoming a mil
town, for not only is the mill of the

the middle of September, but there Is
another to be started shortly. This
is to be put up by Philadelphia cap.

1t is said that the work will be
rushed as fast as possible so that the
mill may be in operation long before
the first of the year. With two mills
going in Manhattan, the camp will
rapidly forge to the front, and WI
be one of the busiest and most pros

INTERESTED IN
ROUND MOUNTAIN
GILBERT 5. JOHNSON MUCH
PLEASED WITH WORK
ON PROPERTIES.

Gilbert S. Johnson and George
Long of Goldfeld arrived from
Round Mountain and Manhattan on
Thursday night, and went on to Gold
field. Mr.. Johnson is largely inter
ested in the Round Mountain Central
and the Manhattan Whale. He is
doing considerable work on both
these properties, and is going to do
more, and is satisfied that both have
in them the making of good mines.
Il have had Frank La Foe pros
pecting the ground on the Central .
said Mr.. Johnson, "and the returns
are more than satisfactory. There
has been a quantity of coarse gold
found, and there is every indication
that we will get the Fairview ledge.
| intend putting up a hoist right
away, and sinking to a depth of 200
feet.
The Central adjoins the Blue jack
ct, and in an interview sometime
ago with James Buchanan, one of the
owners of the latter, he stated that
he and La Foe had traced the ledge
of the Fairview through both the
Fairyiew and the Central. Further
more, on the Central ground, he
said, La Foe had obtained paintings
that showed from fifteen to fifty
eolors, to say nothing of the numer-
GUS nuggets that he had picked up.
Mr.. Johnson adds that Round Noun
tain is IA of the most wonderful
camps that he has ever visited.

new COPPER
BELT IS found

EUREKA, Calf, July IA new
copper belt has been discovered in
the Horse Mountain district, in the
east central portion of Humboldt
county, and the rich surface values
are attracting great attention. Sew
eral strong companies have been Or
ganized in this city to develop some
of the most promising prospects,
while agents of prominent Eastern
copper men have secured several
good claims. David Wilson, g we'll
known mining man, has located
fifty claims, while several other
parties have acquired large holdings.
A rush is on to the new district from
all convenient points, and everything
indicates a great period of activity
during the next few months. Sam
piles of the ore brought to this city
assay better than 20 per cent copper
and the entire surface outcroppings
are said to be very good. Such
tests as have been made indicate
that the copper ore is many times
richer than that found in the Shasta
copper belt. The new region is wei
supplied with water, and abundant
power is available at the lowest cost
The chief obstacle confronting tn,
miners is the lack of transportation
facilities, but the new railroad from
Eureka to Redding will pass through
the heart of the district. Prior L
the construction of the line it will b,
necessary to ship in much of the sup
plies by mules. The country is ex
tremely mountainous, and in som.
places It is impossible to drive
wagon through. Everything must b
taken in on the backs of mules. A

STRIKE MADE ON TONOPAH
BUCKEYE.

A strike was made yesterday on
the Tonopah Buckeye, which, while
not a very big strike, may be of great
Importance to the camp. A seam
about half an inch wide, was opened
up at the 115-foot level, and it prov
ed to be very good silver ore.
The Tonopah Buckeye comprises
four claims, located about 5000 feet
to the east of the Belmont Extension,
and is owned principally by Toledo
capital.
Letson Ballet. of this city, who is
interested in the company, said last
night that the ind was not a startling
one, but that it was a good indica-
ton of what might be expected later
on.

he, "and have a contract to sink 200

EDITORIAL COMMENT
THE PROPER MEDIUM.

Circulation is one of the main arteries of the world, Circulation OF
the blood keeps man alive; circulation of money makes n world %
round; circulation Of news keeps everybody moving. The newspaper
that has the largest circulation is the newspaper that fills its columns
with the most desirable sort of news for all classes. The newspaper witt
the largest circulation is the best advertising medium
The Daily Bonanza has the lareest circulation of any newspaper in
southern Nevada. The Daily Bonanza, then, is the best advertising
medium in southern Nevada.
The newspaper of a city is the surest index of the class of that city
The Daily Bonanza is a paper of class; it prints each day the service OF
the Associated Press; it covers the local field of news thoroughly, and
that we n giving to the public of Tonopah the class of newspaper that
is wanted; we believe, too, in reciprocity. There should be more adver-
Using in the columns of The Bonanza than re shown. This is IS much to
the interest of Tonopah as it is to The Bonanza.
Advertising is the mainstay of a newspaper A paper n a mining
camp is like the camp itself There is the boom period, the develop
ment period and the dividend period. There was a hurrah in the camp
when The Bonanza made its first appearance Then the paper got down
to work to develop its resources, whichw were its news columns, through
which circulation was obtained. We have the circulation; now we want
the advertisements on a purely business principle.
If we don't advertise our town, W e may as well move off the map
See what advertisement has done for Goldfeld, for Reno; SEE what has
been done through it in every town that has risen to any Importance
The Bonanza is the best advertisement that goes out of Tonopah. But
it costs something to get out such a paper; we cannot expect to do it ALL
We want the help of the advertising men in this town. If you have any
thing to sell or to promote, let the public know it through the columns OF
The Bonanza.
The people of Tonopah naturally, take a pride in their newspaper.
The day isn't properly started unless they have it at the breakfast table,
to read news of the town, of the state, of the world. Then they turn to
may be a dull time, but things will never be improved by going to
sleep and doing nothing. Get busy; hustle, advertise; keep things going
That is the way to improve the times. BY all pulling together, we help
one another, and thus help ourselves. 1t pays to advertise when you have
the proper medium; and The Bonanza is the proper medium.

DISTRICT
Is NOW BOOMING
GREAT ACTIVITY AMONG THE
LEASERS AND PROPERTIES :
IN THAT SECTION.

Henry Lincoln, of the Lincoln
Mining company in the Union min
ing district, arrived from that coun-
try yesterday and brings in glowing
accounts Of the improvements in the
Douglass-Kendal lease of the Rich
mond mine.
They have been taking out any
amount of ore rich enough to ship
said Mr.. Lincoln, but a few days
ago they struck picture ore. This
will go anywhere from $500 to $1,000
a ton, and l dare not say how much
more. What they will do with this,
| do not presume to say, but l sup
pose that they will hold it until the
mill of the Berlin company is ready
to begin operations. They are to
have ten stamps of this for the re-
duction of their product; and the
mill will be ready now in a few
weeks.
I'VE started work on the mill for
the Lincoln company on the Gath
which we have leased from the
Schwab-Macdonald people. We have
a tunnel in 220 feet, and are at a
depth of seventy-five feet. We ex-
pect to tap the ledge at a depth oil
100 feet. The lodges from the Rich.
mond, which adjoins us on the
north, run through III property and
on and through that of the NORTH
Belle, which adjoins us on the south
They are going to do a lot of leasing
on the North Belle, which will great
ly develop that property. 10 m!
mind it will be a good proposition fol
the leasers, for If they take out NJ
better than $25 ore, they have tn
mill capacity right on the ground
and it will not cost more than a dol
lar for transportation. That is wha
we are going to do, and then shil
our concentrates, which will go owe
$500 to the ton. These can be ship
ped to the railroad at Austin as bacl
freight at the rate of $40 a ton.
1T is a fine section of country. Ih'
lodges are not very wide on the top
but they widen and get better as the,
