TFLLURIUM in
The GOLD BAR

hrnches that are OF extreme richness,
has been opened on the 250-foot level
81 the Gold Bar. The ledge is be-
,,eved to be the same N which the
G. Ives has opened, further north.
The ore is the same in appearance,
and the course of the shoot is the
same in the two properties. 1t should
mass directly through the block of
ground under lease to the Gold Bar
Leasing & Mining company, and the
leasers are preparing to go after 1t
inst as fast as the shaft can be
dropped down. The lumber short
ace has retarded the work of sinking,
II having been impossible to get tim
hers for the shaft, but William B.
Nichols, manager of the leasing conn
many, hopes to overcome that diff
Guilty in the near future.
According to the strike and the
din of the ledge In the company
workings, the shaft on the lease
should hit the ore at or about the
S00-foot level, and at that a point
a crosscut will be sent out If the
ledge is not in evidence.
Two of the big guns of the Gold
Bar have been in Goldfield for sew
eral days, and were highly pleased
with conditions in the mine, and had
plans for the vigorous development of
the property. but have postponed
their execution for a time. They left
this morning for their homes in Pitts
burg, accompanied as far as Reno by
Mine Manager Koontz.
Some of the richest ore, both sui
phide and oxide, ever taken from the
ground in the district has come from
the Gold Bar. and the mine recently
recommended shipping. Besides the
high grade, there is developed in the
property a considerable tonnage of
milling ore, The Pittsburgers. who
" practically all Of the stock, also
control the C.. o. D., which adjoins
the Gold Bar on the west, on which
a number OF leases are In operation.
Chronicle.
January Jones has received assays
from his lease on the Cornishman
property, running $95O.4O and ST..
040.80 to the ton with a trace OF
copper.
These values were secured on an
upraise at the 175-foot level and
place the lease In the front rank OF
producers. The shaft Is down zoe
feet. With 100 feet more work the
lessees can get under the shoot
which is now exposed at lis feet
Three shifts OF men are employed
and the lease has until the end d
the year to run.
The Cornishman. about which lit
tie has been said. but which has beer
pegging along day after day, gettinl
closer and closer to the good stuff
is admirably located near the Jumbo
January Jones lease adjoins tn
Combination Fraction and will prob
ably get all the latter's riches

Little Florence
Mining men have given IN al
guesses on what next the Little Flor
ence property will produce.
Samples OF ore uncovered Sunda
in this lease were assayed yesterday
They gave the magnificent return 0
slo.S5t in gold to the ton, lndicatin
that all records for rich ore in tn
Goldleld district will be broken b
this property. The ledge carryin
valves from 500 to 5000 is yer
wide and the ore that car be secure
from It within the next ten day
alone would almost make the owner
Independent.
The quartz is about the p~rettie'
ever seen in the West, and there
no intimation Of the vein pinchin
out. On the contrary, gets deept
into richer ore.
