is found ore of value In the lower
levels. the value of the mine will be
worth a kings ransom.
The total output of the mines for
the past week was 1850 tons, includ-
ing the mines that have been named
and the Tonopah Extension and the
Jim Butler, which latter is one of
the most popular mines in Tonopah.
There We're 1000 tons sent to the
shelters. which at $40 a ton, would
net $4,000; and to the mills 1910
tons, averaging $50 ton, or a total
Of $44,1OO.
This is by no means an average for
week, for it must be taken into
consideration that one mill was shut
down for the entire week and the
Belmont for part of the time.

The Tonopah Extension mine ia
In many respects. one OF the mos, re.
markable properties In this camp
The management is now WRESTLING
with problem which is fraught with
the greatest interest to the district
and In the meantime swelling the
treasury by the shipment OF ore OF
high grade from the upper levels
The ore is being taken out from the
21O, 400, 500 and 600 levels. and al
that 1t is being taken sparingly
while the work of development is go.
ing on in the 1850 level.
The Tonopah Extension was at one
time one of the biggest shippers in
the camp, when of a sudden its big
gest pay shoot faulted, and it re-
quired some considerable time to de-
termine what the trouble was. A da.
cite formation had come in on the
600 level, and there were not a few
who expressed the belief that the end
of the mines resources had been
reached. Don B. Gillies, president
of the company, himself one of the
ablest engineers in the country, as
sisted by a corps of engineers of his
own selection undertook the solution
OF the problem, and came to the con-
clusion with the aid of a diamond
drill, that the ledge had simply
faulted, and have been working on
these lines ever since. They sank to
the 1850 level, and started cross
cut, which they calculated to extend
1000 feet. 1t is expected that the
end OF the crosscut will be reached
by the month of February, when from
present indications, the rich pay
shoot will be picked up again, be-
yond doubt.
This work will settle beyond furth-
er argument, the permanency of the
ore bodies of the camp, so that the
importance of it can be imagined
In the meantime, they are working
on the rich ore body above the 600
level, and extracting enough ore to
keep the mine going. There are
thousands of tons of milling ore
available, and the management, in
the very near future, will put up a
mill on it's property, and grind out
the dollars for many years to come.
On the crosscut on the 1850 level
they are now in the true lode por-
phyry and the appearance of the face
is getting better each day. If~this

PLACE TO STOP
in MANHATTAN

When you go to Manhattan, you
will naturally stop at the Merchants
hotel, and there you will meet man
of the sunniest and most congenial,
and you will no longer wonder why
Manhattan is so charming a place to
strangers as well as to those who
have lived long enough there to have
become fascinated with it's spell. The
man you will meet is George Wood,
one of the best and most entertaining
bonifaces who ever summed himself
on his own veranda, or got in out
OF the rain to hug his own fireside.
Mr.. Wood will tell you why he is
in Manhattan, and he will tell you in
such an earnest and sincere manner
that you will want to camp right
there. He is there because he be-
lieves that it is one of the greatest
mining camps, not only in the State,
but in the wide world, and he has
been over every hill and every claim
in it. He knows the ore when he
sees it, and knows the good from
the bad
There's only one Goldfield," he
says, "and that's Manhattan.

StupendOuS Mineral
Output of TOnOpdh

ronopah boasts OF some Of the
greatesi mines en- the world. and she
doesn't do much boasting at that;
tho mines speak for themselves.
Having long since passed the devel.
opment stage, and being now in what
IL called the productive. or dividend
era, not so much is heard from the
mines, as from those of camp which
is part in the development and part
in. the productive stage.
The property of the Tonopah Min
ing Company justly ranks first among
the mines of Nevada. IL comprises.
for one of it's holdings, the great
Mizpah mine. which was discovered
by Jim Butler, and which was the
making of Nevada. The ore is being
taken out from three shafts, and a
fortune goes to the mill and smelter
each week. The mine, since the pres
ent owners have had it, has paid in
the neighborhood of $12,O0O,0OO;
and the leasers took out of old Miz-
pah, $3,500,O00; not a bad showing
for less than six years. There have
been stories set afloat by the design
ing intriguers of Wall street that the
mines of the Tonopah and the Bel
mont companies have been denuded
of ore. The best answer to that ma
iicious statement is a reference to
the weekly shipments of both COM
panies. The ore is being hoisted
every day through the shafts, and is
being sent to the mills and the smell
ter. The mill of the Tonopah Mining
Company was shut down for repairs
all last week, so that there was no
ore sent to Millers; but the big COM
pany shipped to the smelters, 925
tons, valued at $40 a ton. The Bel
mont Company shipped 500 tons and
sent to the mill 210 tons, the mill
having been closed down a portion
of the time.
The Montana Tonopah mine has
one of the most complete mills in
the country, and is putting the ore
through with the saving of a high
percentage, and obtaining very salts
factory results. The mill is aver
aging about five tons to the stamp.
and for the past week, the number
OF tons sent to the mill was 1860.
The Midway mine, which adjoins the
Montana Tonopah, is sending out
each week enough high grade ore to
more than meet expenses, and to
put aside something in the treasury.
They are busy in the lower levels
prospecting for the ore beneath the
dacite formation They have en-
