MAY DAY
FESTIVAL
Stately Pageant on the
Grounds of Oahu
College.

The May Day fete given yesterday
afternoon by the students of Oahl Col
lege, on the Punahou campus. far ex-
ceeded, in every way, all that had been
anticipated, accustomed as the public
are to the thorOughness and excellence
of the college undertakings. To begin
with, the crowds that come were be-
yond any. estimate that had been made.
It is thought that there must have
been nearly five thousand persons upon
the campus throughout the afternoon.
| The ordinary street-car service could
not begin to handle the traffic, and
| finally at least double the serviee-all
| the availabla cars and force of extra
motormen and conductors were called
out. For at least two hours before the
hour announced for the pageant to
! move-2:30 'clock-there had not been
standing room, and car after car pass
ed, without hating, as there was not
even space in aisles or on the foot
boards for the traditional zone more"
As to the pageant, itself, although
the program was long and varied, yet
it conveyed the mere announcement, no
hint of the brilliancy of color and the
grace of movement, that made it
series of tableaux, all blending into one
perfect and harmonious whole.
THE CAMPUS.
The day seemed specially ordained
such as a real May Day should be
with clear skies, sunlight and soft
breezes that just stirred the foliage
of the algaroba trees, and no more.
At the gates of the campus were
mounted police in their best uniforms,
giving it quite the air of royal func-
tion in keeping with the dignity to
which the Lord and Lady of the May
were justly entitled.
The grounds were never more beau |
tiful. the sward like velvet, dappled |
with light and shade, with flags and
pennons fiuttering everywhere. On the
main building were large American and
Hawaiian flags, suspended from the
upper balconies, and covering nearly
the entire front. The early arrivals
scattered themselves about in groups,
Americans Hawaiians, japanese and
Chinese, fraternizing as they do no.
where else in the world.
A spectator remarked: "What
strange sight Hawaiians, Americans
and Chinese, all uniting in the celebra-
ton of the old English May Day
festival-a thing that could never have
been foreseen by the singers of mad
'igals centuries ago."
The procession moved, as such a
stately spectacle should, at moderate
,ace, crossing the campus, and passing
% the left, then turning to form about

plans until the other day. 1t is hoped
by the mining men of this district that
the work will proceed from now on with
out any further interruptions. Specula-
ton has been rife for some time past as
to the nilsson Of Joseph Naughton, of
Duluth, Mimi, a prominent mine oper-
ator of the northwest. Mr.. Naughton
has been in Searchlight for the past
week examining several properties but
is non-committal as to what he intends
doing in the future. In an interview he
stated that the Searchlight camp i'm
pressed him better than any camp he
had visited in the northern part of the
state. He left last evening for Eldorado
Canyon where he is going to examine
several properties.
The Santa Fe Railroad compan has
commenced constructing immense ore
bins at the depot to accommodate the in
creasing ore shipments. h vicinity OF
the depot is beginning to resemble a
huge grain warehouse as the shipments
of the mines increase with great rapid
ity from the Thurman. Eldorado, Knob
Hill and Searchlight districts. Among
the new properties to begin shipping
are the Chippewa. Gillispie. Mizpah.
Colder Empire. Mineral Farm and
Mountain mines.
The Quartette, Duplex and Blossom
mines are producing enough ore to keep
20 stamps dropping continuously be-
sides shipping considerable high grade.
The management of the Blossom mine
has leased the Searchlight and Cyrus

prosecuted on this property.

agement for what seems to be nothing
but a stock jobbing deal. The mine has
many thousands OF tons of good milling
ore in sight on the levels and
when water was encountered on the
lower levels the mill was closed down
and work was suspended throughout the
mine. Just why a mine with the amount
OF ore exposed that the Searchlight has
should be closed down is what every
body in S~earchlight would ! to know

vexatious delay in the arrival of lum-
Der has in the past mitigated against
rapid construction of the plant of the
Canyon Milling company of Manhattan.
Now that the tie-up on the Tonopah
railroad is but a closed incident, how
ever, material is arriving at the site
regularly. The 6-foot Huntington or
dered from the Allis-Chalmers company
Of Chicago is en- route as is likewise the
Overstrom table and cyanide equipment.

S~earchlight, New, Oct. 15.-While the
papers are daily filled with stories of
Financial Depression slump of the
Stock Market" Tightening of Money in
Financial Circles and "~Stagnation in
Business Circles" Se~archlight and it's
tributary camps are working steadily
along producing and developing to a
marked degree. There are many produc-
ing mines being worked in this district
while every mill in the district is being
worked to it's fullest extent. Many
millions of tons of high grade ore are
blocked out in the mines of this camp
as we'll as those of Eldorado Canyon and
the production is rapidly increasing to a
marked degree. The prosperity in this
district is increasing gradually and the
depressions and financial panics
throughout the country do not seem to
affect this district at all.
The new ten stamp mill on the prop
erty Of the Black Hawk Consolidated
Mining company in Eldorado Canyon
was blown in last Monday with appro-
pirate ceremonies. They rave sufficient
quantities of free milling high grade ore
in sight to keep the mill going for many
years. h Rand shaft is now being
puSneQ 10 water. leNel anu a recent
strike of high grade ore a at a
depth of 10 feet is being thoroughly
exploited to ascertain the extent and
value OF the find.
Knob Hill will receive its first in
stallment of machinery this week.
From reliable source 1t has been as
certained that the management of the
Stanley Forbes mine nave buried the
Ratchet and agreed to again resume
work on their property four miles east
of Searchlight. The Stanley Forbes
mine have one of the richest prospects
in Searchlight. They lave an adit tun-
mel 120 feet on the vein all in ore n
shows -four feet of quartz averaging
over $50 per- ton. The ore dump has
been sampled and runs better than $40
in gold with small silver values. The
management was developing what ap-
pears to be one of the most promising
prospects in the district having opened
up shipping ore in three tunnels when a
row started among the leading lights
of the ompan with the result that the
mine was closed dow and nothing could
be learned as to the company's future

suNNYsIDE MINE HAS
ORE AT EVERY POINT

During the month of September the
Sunnyside mill turned out 1907 ounces
of bullion valued at s15,2Os. says the
Round Mountain Nugget. This was ex-
tracted from 1.135 tons giving an aver
age of 1870 per ton value which is con-
siderably lower than the regular grade
of the ~Sunnyside ore which averages
about $40 per ton. The average daily
tonnage put through was 43 tons. This
is somewhat less than the actual ca
pacity of the mill when working full
blast.
The reason that the full tonnage was
not being put through was because when
the milling plant was increased no COR
responding increase was made in the
water power, which prevented handling
all of the ore possible. This is now be-
ing remedied by the laying of 500 feet of
additional six-inch pipe at the source
head in Jefferson canyon which will give
an additional ifteen-foot perpendicular
fall for pressure. Eight new mullers of
up to date pattern have been ordered
for the Huntington to replace the old
style ones now being used. With these
two improvements a record breaking
run is looked for this month.
Meantime Superintendent James Nc
Donald is going for depth. The No. 8
incline which is the main inlet to the
mine will be SUM an additional hundred
feet from the 25O-foot level. 1t is
aimed to strike the vein which is about
forty feet distant from the foot of the
present incline.

in go feet and has three feet of ore. A
raise has been cut about 25 feet which
will connect this with the 135-foot level.
The men are working through ore.
On the 135-foot level a drift has been
run 12O feet to the west on the vein. The
ledge throughout the entire distance
averages -four feet in width and is in ore
all the way. Just above his level SUI
perintendent Mcdonald is stopping
through nine feet of ore.
The No. 2 incline which is down 40
feet has a stope 40 feet long with a L.
foot ore body.
Two men are also at work in the old
Spencer and Baily lease in seven feet
of ore.
I'VE have thirty men at work in the
various parts of the mine,' said Mr.. Nc
Donald. and every one of them is min
ing out ore. As a matter of fact the EN-
tire mine is in ore which will average
throughout. $50 to the ton"
Superintendent Mcdonald stated that
the Sunnyside mine has exceeded his
most sanguine expectations. Il always
believed there was the making Of a
great mine here" he said. but I never
figured on anything like hat we've got.
We haven't begun to take out ore yet"
Mr.. Mcdonald predicts that in the not
very distant future 1t will require two
hundred stamps to pound out the daily
output of the Round Mountain mines.

Among a number of properties In the

upon to supply Manhattan milling
plants with ore the estate of the Stray

fully the equal of those prevailing in
the upper levels.
0IFrEM LEASE
At the Giffen lease on the Stray Dog
the miners are working in 4 feet of
ledge material which has an average
gold grade of 800 the ton. From pres
ent indications this ore body is distinct
from that opened in the main workings.
If further development prove this de-
duction the owning company has two
valuable sources of revenue instead Of
ore. Giffen first discovered the ore at
grass roots, where 1t presented the
width of a knife-blade. AS 1t was fol-
lowed downward. however. it gradually
widened until at the 5o-foot level it

All records for rapid mill building are
being roken by the working force en-
gagged in constructing the plant of the
Nevada Milling & Ore Purchasing COM
pany, known locally as the Lemon mill.
Although ground was not broken at the
site until several weeks after the Wolf
mill people got busy 1t is not unlikely
that the two plants will handle their in
