because they were pleased, and the &C
tors, because a fierce battle had just
been fought with q tribe OF Indians and
won.
As the name suggests, "a Child OF the

MACHINERY IS
ON The GROUND
TYPO is GETTING IN SHAPE FOR
GREAT DEVELOP
MENT.

o. G. Rogers, general superin7
tendent of the Nevada Smelter INT
Mines corporation, came in from Ty-
by yesterday, where he has been for
some time overlooking the property
of the Typo Mining company, which
is a subsidiary company OF the
smelter corporation.
I'VE are giving more attention to
the development of the Typo and the
Southwestern mines said MI. Rog-
ers, than to anything else at pres
ent. The Typo has a shaft 400 feet
deep, and we have just brought in a
compressor, a 100-horsepower boiler,
pumps, pipe line and other machinery
for the mine. We shipped this from
Salt Lake to Eureka from where we
hauled it by team. One carload was
shipped on May 20 and the other on
| the 9th. On June 9th we had that
on the wagons at Eureka, and on
June 18th it was landed at the mine,
This is extraordinary and we are now
getting in lumber the same way. BY
hauling to Tonopah and then out tc
the mine, it is hard to say when We
would get the material.
THE pumps r for the bottom o.
the shaft and the compressor will be
used for the drifts and the further
development of the mine. We expect
to do a great deal of work this sum
mer. We are going ahead pretty fas
at the Southwestern mines, too, ant
do not propose to get stuck this win
ter as we were last winter, when WI
were caught without supplies. w
will provide against this, although
dare say we may not have such
winter again in years.
THE Southwestern mines are a
Reveille, and the shaft is down 30
) feet, while a second shaft, 700 fee
away, is down 200 feet. Both thes
properties are of lead and silver, an
we are developing them before a
tempting to do anything with tn
2 smelter. What we need for the SINE
ter are the basic ores, for there is S
E much ore of a silicious nature, "
cannot do without the other as a flu.
: We will get out the fluxes first, an
: then we can go ahead with the col
} struction of the smelter upon SUI
ground.
I'VE have been very busy out the
t since the snow cleared, and we WI
crowd the work from this on. v
will have both mines equipped wi
supplies so that there will be
danger of our being caught next wi
ter, and no necessity of stoppil
work"
