scULLY GOES EAST
on I1CPo1TANT DEAL

on IHCPo1TANT DEAL
M. C. Scully, of the Scully, Norton
Company, Inc. left for the East last
Wednesday night and expects to be gone
about three weeks. He will visit Chi
cago, Pittsburg and New York on ousi-
ness and expects to take a u to Cory,
Pa, the home of his youth.
Mr.. Scully's trip at this time is in
connection with a deal Of magnitude,
the exact nature of which he declined
to state. He is largely Interested in
various properties in this district, own
ing some very valuable ground out
right, and it is possible that he intends
to interest eastern capital for the pur-
pose of opening up n or more of these
properties on an extensive scale. He
has been very successful in the past
and he is not likely to experience a
great deal of trouble in convincing the
capitalists of New York and Chicago
of the ~desirability of investing their
money in Goldfeld enterprises.

CHICAGO MAN

booster for Goldheld.
"A man who has never beer any fur

ought to be able to see that this place
Is a winner" said Mr.. Bowles. 1T does
not require expert knowledge to know
that a thing is a paying proposition
when you can see the figures showing
the net profits. 1 hardly believed the
stories of the big fortunes made In Gold
field and the production of the mines.
but I ave seen the figures.
The best thing in favor of this camp
is the wide area Of its naturalization.
Mines can be exhausted like coal beds.
but there is scarcely an acre of ground
tributary to Goldheld that does not show
some indication of being mineralized.
Chicago Is waiting only for things
to move again in the fall. to send a lot
Of money this way. A good deal of 1t
may be expected before the end Of the
summer. as the Chicago men are
shrewd enough to see the necessity of
getting in before the stocks go up.

here to be shown and they showed me-"

THE Polaris and Shoshone workings

being made between the levels. The
new shaft is connected with the old

The Rutty group in the Black North
ern district, % miles from Nina is being
surveyed for patent. Fifty tons of ore
was shipped to the smelter, via Belle
vile a few days age, the average value
being $75 the ton. The main shaft
in the property Is down 800 feet and
stopping has begun. The formation is
mainly ~porphyry. the veins being from
one to twelve feet wide. Over a million

BOOTH 4 BOOSTED

ron D0IDE CITY
w. G. Booth of Boise, Idaho. we'll
known to many people In this district
as a prominent citizen and successful
merchant and mining man Of Cripple
Creek. has been in Goldield this week,
trying to interest his friends in Boise
real estate Investments. Mr.. Booth is
one of the largest real estate owners
and brokers in Boise, having put $780,
900 in realty in that city. some IL years
ago, when 1t was only a town Of a
few thousand inhabitant. Now 1t is a
city of over 10000 people and is forg-
ing ahead at a great rate. and Mr.. Booth
predicts that in a comparatively few
years it will be a city of 100. 900 souls.
He bases this prediction upon the fact
that the great irrigation enterprises of
Southern Idaho are bringing under cul-
tivation an enormous acreage. Where
there were only 200,0 900 acres of irri-
gated a in various places in Southern
Idaho. there are now two million acres,
and the country Is fast being settled.
Boise is the main city of the state, the
state capital and will soon have two or
more additional railroads.
Mr.. Booth says he has received much
encouragement in Goldfeld. and that
several of his friends are to invest in
the thriving Idaho city.
