~HERE was the usual morning
hustle around the small sta
ton at Finley. On the plat
form were long lines of neatly
packed crates and orange boxes, and
among them the owners, with stencils
and paint pots, making sure that their
markings were all right
Presently there were roar and a
quiver, and the great engine rushed by
and came to a slow stop as the passen-
ger cars glided opposite the platform.
Among those to alight was young
girl of seventeen or eighteen, plainly
but extensively dressed, and with a
bright, eager air of expectation. A quick
glance about the platform brought a
shade of disappointment to her face.
After a moments hesitation she ap-
preached a man In shirt sleeves and
broad, low, tapping hat who was lean
ing against some orange boxes he had
just finished marking.
"Can you direct me to Mr.. John Aus
tins placer she asked.
"Mr.-John-Austin," he repeated re-
fectlvely. "Why, no, / don't Oh, yes
of course-Booxy John" He stopped
abruptly as he noticed the inquirine
look on her face. "I-I-yes, / reckon

PLAN MILL
Manhattan Granny Gold Mining Com
pany to the Front

Manhattan Granny Gold Mining Com
pany to the Front
Development of the estate of the
Manhattan Granny Gold Mining com
pany is confined at this time to shaft
sinking, with the object of crosscut-
ting to the ledge at a depth of 200
feet. Ed Hirschler of San Fran
cisco, president of the company, re-
turned home recently after an ex-
haustive inspection of the mine and
the outlining of future exploration
plans. He expressed himself as well
pleased with the showing on the
Granny and of the camp in general.
He believes that Manhattan will soo1
berome the most prominent camp in
Nevada, and is convinced that the
opening up of large bodies of ship
ping ore in the sulphide zone is but
a question of a few months.
The vein showing in the Granny is
oDe of the very best in the district,
and has few equals in the Litigation
hill district, acknowledged to be one
of the richest portions of the pay
belt. At the 120-foot level of the
main working shaft the ledge is
highly mineralized and is streaked
with remarkably rich quartz string
ers that occur in the planes of cleav'
age and t~ransversely with the fissur'
ing. These stringers not i%nfrequent
~ show gold in the free, and invar
iably yield a generous string of gold
den colors to the pan. From the
has been mined ore in sufficient bull
to fill forty sacks, its average grad
being a trifie in excess of 500 to tn,
ton.
From surface down the Cram,
shaft is streaked with seams of wei
mineralized quartz, and every pounl
of rock piled on the dump can b
treated at a profit beneath tn
stamps. This condition is one whicl
appealed very strongly to Mr.. Hirsch
Ter; so much so, in fact, that he In
tends recommending the erection Q
a stamp mill at the property. 1t
his purpose to talk the matter owe
with the other directors of the Grar
ny company, and If meets with thel
favorable consideration to immed
ately return to Manhattan and pr
pare for the installation Of Il
plant. That MT. Hirschler's plan
feasible is fully demonstrated by Il

LEASE On THE VELVET

e. D. Miller of Salt Lake and DR..
c. A. Wherry of Ogden are in Gold
field to look after their mining inter-
ests, The gentlemen have a lease on
the Velvet, known as the Utah Vel
vet Mining & Leasing company, on
which they have sunk 800 feet. At a
depth of ninety feet a three-foot
ledge was cut in the shaft which as
sayed SIG per ton. On the 200-foot
level the shaft entered an iron and
quartz dyke and passed through for
ty feet of this material. A crosscut
has been started on this level to tap
and prospect the ledge which raj cut
10 feet above. Preparations are
also being made to erosscut from the
800 level, where punches of iron and
quartz are in evidence. Chronicle.

BUSTER GROUP
SOLD FOR $4,000

Lee, Ryan & Pierce, operating In
the Lee district, have just sold to j.
G. Mccormack of Goldfeld, who buys
Tor himself and California capitalists,
the Buster group of quartz claims
TOR the sum of $4,000.
The Buster group consists OF
three full claims and n fraction,
known as the Buster, Algonquin, lie
Roy and Buckeye fraction, situated
two miles south of the Hayseed and
one mile west of the Burro mines.
Dick Lee, one of the brothers from
which the district takes its name, To-
Gated the property in the early days
of desert mining.
The property Is traversed by one
of the most persistent true assure
veins in the district, cropping boldly
above the ground for 1900 feet on
the Buster, without a single fault,
and plainly traceable for 5000 feet
through the property.
On a recent trip to Lee, for the
purpose of examining some other
properties, W. H. H. Hamilton, con-
sulting engineer for Mr.. Mccormack,
accidentally ran across the Buster
ground, and the moment he saw the
vein became seriously interested.
After thoroughly sampling the vein
and studying the geology Of the i'm
mediate vicinity, he made overtures
for an option on the same. The
owners gave a ffteen-day option, on
the basis of $4,000. Returning to
Rhyolite and thence to Goldfeld for
the purpose OF submitting the deal
to Mr.. Mccormack, Hamilton pre-
sented a recommendatory report, but
the Goldfield labor trouble kept Nc
Cormack at home, and the ~fifteen-day
option sped around with the posi-
bility Of a forfeit.
The owners would grant no extern
sion of time and Hamilton took it
upon himself to pay another $1,000
for a ten-day extension, feeling sure
that if he could only get Mr.. McCor-
mack to see the property he would
close the deal. The Goldfield situa-
ton having closed up last week, Mr..
Mccormack was induced to come
down and see the property, with the
result that the deal was Immediately
closed. Mr.. Mccormack is reported
to have remarked on his return that
he would not take three times the
purchase price for his bargain.
Mr.. Hamilton reports that it is
the intention of the lev owner tc
start development at once. He IL
confident that the property will be {
huge producer, as it is n of the
biggest veins in the district, being
frem five to fifteen feet in width, be
tween w~ell-defined walls, and carry
ing fine surface values. Samples
from the shaft. which is all in ore
show values from 1913 to $42.42.-

Ore Which Goes 800 to the Ton
South of DEMO

Ore Which Goes 800 to the Ton
South of DEMO
At the Ashdown mine in the Pine
Forest range, fourteen miles south
of DEMO, where work is going on, a
six-foot body of ore has been struck
in No. 10 tunnel which shows values
of 500 to the ton in gold. The ore
is a sulphide and is ideal for concen-
trating purposes.
From the point in the tunnel
where the ore was encountered, 100
feet of drifting has been done on the
ledge and the ore retains the high
values in gold with the same width
of vein.
The Yshdown is owned by the
Pine Forest Gold Mining company
and is well equipped with a mill and
other equipment for extensive min
ing and milling of the ores. This
property has produced $150,000 in
bullion in the past and is in line for
a still larger production.
South of the Ashdown is a group of
claims owned by Fred Holloway
which has very good surface show
ings in gold.
North of the Ashdown is the Ken
lucky group of ten claims, owned by
r. Mckenzie. and associates, and
known as the Kentucky Gold Mining
& Milling company. Considerable
work has been done on this property
and "a number of lodges have been
uncovered. On one of these Lodges
which cuts the formation, and is ten
feet wide, is traceable on the surface
for 1920 feet. Assays of the ore
show values of SIS in gold to the
ton. Ore taken from the different
lodges shows plenty of colors in gold
in the pan.
On the east, Lubinger and Travis
have some claims and lately have
struck rich placer on their ground.
A few miles north are two patent
ed mines known as the Hall prop
erty, owned by Mr.. Wier of SaI
Francisco. There is a splendid show
ing on these claims of gold, silvel
and copper ore, and specimens show
values of $500 per ton.
The Nevada King Mining com
pany's property, which has produced
over $780, 900 in gold, is beinl
worked continually, and regular ship
ments of bullion are being made.
At the O'Connor's mine, situatet
in the basin, good ore is being ex
tracted, showing values in gold, sill
yer, copper, cinnabar, manganese
iron and nickel. The ledge is owe
100 feet wide in a contact of linn
and porphyry. Specimens from thi
big ledge show ore carrying Is pc
cent in mercury, besides good value
in gold and silver.-Humboldt Star
