A Woefttl Tale

Little happy Puglet
Drinking from a muglet,
Drinking grandpa's cider,
Don't you knowl
Cider hard as bricklet,
Serves poor Pug a tricklet.
Makes him full and lays him
On the floor!
Little Pug gets crazy,
For his mind is hazy,
Never having drunk so,
I'll contest
He thinks his tail a snakelet,
And his neck does breaklet;
So he dies in awful
Drunken-essi
Let this warn all puglets
Ne'er to touch such NUGGETS;
Cider's not for doggies,
Anyhow!
And If some bad outsider
Should pass a mug of cider,
Let the puglet bravely say,
"Bow-wowI"

news OF an important strike Of rich cola
ore On the east side Of the Diamond
range OF mountaius. about % miles cas-,
OF Eureka. in White Pine County.
The discovery was made some time
& by Albert Mau, who owns ranch
situated in McMennomy canyon about
-Four miles southwest Of the recent strife
Inc new discovery is about two miles
east of Nick Ratios ranch ia Nevart
valley.
Oar informant states that two lodges

from them gave assay Of 10 ounces in
gold and q ounces in silver per ton
lie also says he found a number Of pieces
OF float in that section in which the
gold could be plainly seen with the
naked eye, which he thinks is a good
indication that there is more mineral IN
be found In that belt of mountain
ranges than has already been discovered
Mr.. Mau is now sinking a shaft on

WHY SHIPMENTS ARE CURTAILED
Payments to Ore Producers Are
Now Deferred From Four to
Six Weeks

A great deal Of curiosity has been
manifested recently over the signif-
canoe Of the action Of the western
smelters In refusing to take ore from
the producers on a scale equal TO the
rate heretofore secured. This step
when applied to copper bearing ores
has been pretty well understood, but
when their retrenchment was found to
operate against gold and silver bearing
ores the policy which prompted their
curtailment has given rise TO con-
siderable apprehension.
Reports received from the smelling
companies indicate that this move has
no significance. except that under pres
ent conditions they do not propose to
tie mp funds by making large ore pur-
chases. In addition the smelters run
ming under reduced capacities have
more ore on hand than they can con-
v~eniently handle, and rather thar IN
ploy their ore fund to add to this con-
gestion they prefer to keep a larger
| cash balance on hand t meet any un
expected emergency.
The American Smelling & Refining
Company, as well as other smelling
companies, is establishing a new rule
the feature Of which is the deferment
of payments for a period Of from four

the ztROu NINE At PAlISADe
Nevada Property Of Utahns Is
Responding Like Veteran
to Development

The SAT- Lake Tribune Of November Q
says; Not long ago two Italians owned
and operated a property over in Nevada.
near Palisade. Eureka County. They
knew what they had in a way. so did
several who wanted the mine, when
two Salt Lakers happened to come
along with the cash, aud won the day.
The mine became the property of the
Lenoli Mining Company, aud IL ore
shipments tell the tale. the Zenoli was
one Of the distinct finds of the season in
that State. The original group was not
large, so the new owners proceeded to
buy up much of the surrounding terri
'ory. A shipment of 1000 tons brought
in the net sum of $780, 600. and hat was
more than the whole property cost the
Zenoli Company. Since last March the
company has marketed over $4,000 net
worth of ore, and the most Of it was de-
veloped by the former owners, some be-
ing rescued from the dump they had
made.
On Friday the Zenoli Company sent a
car from the sampler to the smelter.
Another car is due in Salt Lake any
day, while the third is somewhere be-
tween the shipping point and this city
The ore contains mostly silver, although
sometimes the rock carries enough lead
to bring the amount of the check up a
bit. A general average of these ship
ments is stated to be close to 206 ounces
silver per ton, and there is a magnifi-
cent tonnage now available in the prop
erty. A short time ago the manage
ment extended the possibilities of the
group by doing some work OF one of the
far corners. thought then to be in line
for the vein system. This proved to
be the case. and the Zenoli is having its
tonnage augmented daily at a very gen.
erous gait.
The property is finely situated, being
only a mile and a quarter from the rail-
road tracks. The company has nothing
but ore to sell, aud the company purse
is assuming a fairness hat is highly
gratifying to those at the helm of the
organization. Before the close of the
year the Zenoli will have achieved sufl.
cient to land it in the large producers of
the sagebrush State, and Salt Lakers
are the sole owners of the property.
