Mill FOR
MONT.-SHOSHONE
WORK DEMONSTRATES POSI-
lively THAT 1T HAS NET
WORK OF VEINS

The fame of the Montgomery-Sho-
shone is worldwide and the fact that
Charles M. Schwab and associates
paid $5,0O0,O 900 for the control of
a property less than one yea old
was sufficient to cause public atten-
ton to the mine of Bullfrog district
and the development work which has
been advanced on Montgomery noun
tain has disclosed strong and high
grade veins in a number of proper
ties, and while this was not the d.
rect result of the transfer of the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 1t certainly
was a great incentive to aggressive
operations i nthat district for it was
a positive concession that the Mont
gomery-Shoshone was of great value
as it had been exhaustively examined
by experts of conservatism and abil-
ity.
Work on the new mill is progress
ing as rapidly as possible and the
company is advancing drifts on two
veins that were encountered in the
crosscut from the bottom of the $50
foot level.
This property has made several
shipments, the last two carloads hav-
ing been sent out last week and the
returns from this ore may be ex-
pected at any time.
The development work advanced
on Montgomery mountain would indi-
cate that there is a network of veins
trending through this section and the
returns from this ore may be expect
ed at any time.
The development work advanced

DISCOVERS BIG
COPPER DEPOSIT
PRoSPECTOR FINDS A MONSTER
VEIN OF RED
METAL.

ELY, Mar. 12.-R. H. Sleem. who
has been prospecting for the past
month in the White Horse range near
this city, has returned to Ely and re-
ports finding a copper ledge, which If
his report is true, means that a de-
post of copper greater than the cop
per deposit of Ely has been discov-
cred. In speaking of the discovery
Sleem said:
Five miles from DOLLY Warden, !
came upon a ledge, which | traced
for four miles. 1t was eight feet six
inches at its widest point, and four
feet at its narrowest point.
Assays of ore taken from one
point showed $14 in copper, so
cents in gold, and $1.4O in silver to
the ton. At another point, assays
showed $2S in copper, and values in
gold and silver.
South OF this ledge. / found an
other ledge which | traced a mile.
This was four feet at its widest point
and two feet wide at its narrowest
One assay made of ore taken from
this ledge showed $29 in copper to
the ton, with gold and silver values
Another assay showed $3.50 in cop.
per, with gold and silver values.
Both lodges have two perfect
walls and could be easily traced. We
took up a number of claims on the
first ledge, which we called the
Nevada Golden West group. We also
took up a bunch of claims on the sec.
ond ledge, which we called the Mon
arch group.

West Extension at Rhyolite-Green
Ore All the Way
For $50 feet one may walk
through the West Extension drifts
on the 115-foot level and see the
characteristic green ore all the way.
Here and there the ore has been
broken fresh for a few feet, exhibit
ing the character OF the high grade,
and not infrequently n may see
free gold sticking in the solid quartz
Just as Nature has placed IT in the
ground.
There has been some big stories
told OF the ore actually exposed in
these workings, and some big assay
returns have been announced, but
everything that has been printed In
the Herald can be verified by any
visitor. The ore is there. The lGt-
e~ols on the 115-foot level-the orly
level explored from the new shaft
are all in quartz Of a good milling
grade, and a 30-foot crosscut from
the east drift has failed to find the
opposite wall. The shaft dropped
in,o the green ore on this level and
penetrated it for about thirty feet,
cutting through the shoot into quartz
of a lesser grade.
Hardly enough work has been done
a, vet to determine Just how much
ore may be depended upon, but
With a full drift Of ore, at times seen

not been worrying much. Averages
of drifts at various places hay'

tain, and the richest ore uncovered In
the drift is being found at the great
est depth.
The company has decided to sack
a big shipment and is taking out the
rich ore along the drifts by under
stopping. The sacked ore is good to
behold. A Herald reporter, who
visited the property Yesterday,
brought in a big free gold specimen,
one of the lousy" kind, which was
tie first piece of ore picked from nne
OF the many sacks that have recenti,'
been prepared. 1t was so rich in
free gold that even Judge Hoggatt's
selected samples had to take a blci-
seat. The reporter took pieces II
quartz from various places in the
workings. and in making several pam
nings did not encounter any skunks.
On Tuesday Manager Len p. Nc
Garry secured returns from the
dump samples which were taken with
an idea of determining just what the
dump will run. The certificates read
$685. and $41.72. The management

Excelsior Mine Now Rated a Good
Property

Property
Manager Frank Qualey OF the Ex-
eelsior Mining company is the hap
piest man in town. News reached
town yesterday that the face of the
S0O-foot tunnel is in ore of excellent
grade. This tunnel cuts the ledge at
a depth of 500 feet. 1t is now a fact
beyond question that Mr.. Qualey has
one OF the best copper mines in the
state. The surface shows ore for a
distance of several thousand feet,
the ledge matter being from 100 to
500 feet wide.
Mr.. Qualey has been working in
the face of difficulties for more than
a year. He has expended large sums
of money to prove that his judgment
was correct, and the appearance of
| ore in the tunnel before it was ex-
pected proves that his Judgment was
not amiss. The company has more
than thirty claims, fuel and water
are plentiful and convenient, and
within six months the Benton and
Bodie railroad will pass within halt
a mile of the mines.
Large shipments of lumber and
supplies are being hauled to the
mines. a powerful gasoline hoist is
on the way, and pending its arrival
a within will be utilized in sinking.
Ground was broken yesterday fol-
the ~1.000-foot shaft, work upor
which will be rushed as fast as men
money and machinery can accom-
plish It.

A member of a Salt Lake ore and
bullion buying firm, speaking of a re-
cent visit to the Cactus mine, in Bea-
yer county, Utah, says: Il saw
enough at the Cactus to leave no
doubt in my mind that, with the mill
running at an average of 1000 tons
a day, the ores that are now in
sight and capable of measurement
and sampling could not be treated IN
less than eight years"
Report has It that the Albion Min
ing company is contemplating the
early erection of a concentrating
plant at Alta for the purpose o
bringing the bulk of Albion ores into

this organization is deemed the logi
cal conclusion of the past two sea
sons development work.

YERINGToN COPPER COMPANY

IhNtaiiihR hoisaihS NA"SihihN
Latest reports from the property
of the Yerington Copper company Of
Yerington was to the effect that the
pipe line from the company's springs
to the property had been completed,
and the mine Is now being supplied
with abundant water. The manage
ment is repidly installing the new
hosting machinery over the main
shaft, and this equipment is expected
to be in working order within the
next few days. In the meantime, the
management is going on down with
this shaft by hand, being down now
over thirty feet. The tunnel is re-
ported to be still penetrating ore that
averages in the neighborhood of 20
per cent copper, and while no figures
have been sent from the mine, the
average progress being made in this
tunnel, four feet a day, must be Civ
ing a splendid length to this ore
chute. The management reports
everything in ideal condition, and de.
yclopment work in the shaft will be
urged forward more rapidly upon the
installation of the new equipment.

Why A Town Lost Out

Fitzgerald, Ca. a town Of 1900 Pop.
ulation not long ago sought to become
the location Of the new building and re.
pair shops of the Atlantic & Birmingham
railway. The town was peculiarly adapt
ed to the needs Of such an industry, but
the railroad officials refused to consider
ii because Of the existence of six saloons,
experience having taught them that la.
Dor was more reliable in dry territory.
Last April 400 conductors and motor.
men Of the United Railroads Of st. Louis,
80, were notified by their employers
that frequenting Of saloons would subject
them TO instant dismissal. The United
Mine Workers Of America have shut out
both ssloonists and bsrtenders from
membership in the organization. These
are bu, a few of many instances which
