Five thousand or more feei aOoNe
the level Of the sea aud high up and
well ON towards the middle Of the
Silver Peak range of mountains has
recently been established the new
Stimler mining district, and from the
indications that now exist Il gives
more than ordinary promise Of be-
coming one of the leaders Of Ne
vada's camps.
At present approach to the new
camp is slow and circuitous and re-
quires the greater part of days
travel To get there one has 10 go
by train to Blair Junction. via Tono-
pah. and thence to Blair, where a
team is taken and drive of fourteen
or fifteen miles follows over road
that for a few miles compares fav-
orally with any in the country, but
the last section of which is over
rocks and through sandy washes.
However, work is now progressing on
the road leading out of the new
camp and within the next few days
it will be put in such shape that
travel will become comparatively
J easy, and added to this the plan to
establish stage route between there
r and Goldfield, now in formation, will
t bring this district within a very few
: hours ride of the new camp and
r make Goldfield it's chief supply and
receiving point
a The main property of the new dis
E trict is owned by Henry Jagels and
: Harry p. Stimler, and consists Of i
t group of ten claims, three of which
\ are being worked by leasers Among
: those at work are the Consolidated
q Nevada Mines company, Watson,
! Marachi and Coburn, Shirley and In
i gals, Swears and Burton, and many
a Others Thirty odd leases, however,
have been let and within a week or
J so big majority of them will be at
i work. The deepest workings in the
l. camp are on the blocks of ground
/. owned by the first three named leas-
J. ers and at depth of fifty feet, which
d has been attained by all of them, the
70 showing is truly remarkable and
shows the section to be highly min
If eralized and the pay shoots rich and
( continuous. So far where work has
le been prosecuted the shafts that have
T. been sunk follow the footwall and in
j. every instance where the ore body
Of has been cut there has been opened 9
r. two-foot expanse of vein matter that
runs above shipping requirements
s. and promises to net the operators &
v. big bunch of money. Average sam
TO pies taken from these workings b.
is the writer, who has made two visits
st to the camp, have returned values
ed running anywhere from $50 to 5000
H. and reports brought in from thu
a camp yesterday state that two feet @
e. the ore cut in the footwall of thu
n Consolidated Nevada Mines com
h. pany's lease at the 50-foot level
showed returns of $437 to the ton
seven ounces of which is gold. Thi
lease is being operated under the di
rect supervision of Harry Stimler AM

NJ The ledge system which traverse
M this section of the Silver Peak coun
ID try is wide and regular, cropping i
places twenty or thirty feet in tn
10 air. 1t is so prominent that it
strange that work has never befor
been done on it, but this may be pal
IS TALLY explained by the fact ths
rk about and above the surface leach
IRE ing of the lodges has taken place
nd leaving the quartz both hungr
tie, looking and barren, but few fe'
We below the surface values began to al
nat pear and have steadily increased ii
rs, now the shipping product has bee
an reached and it gives every indicatio
'ss, of becoming permanent and will lea
in to the development of stupendol
