A copper matte smelter is to be
built at Nina, and work will be started
In the near future. Those back of the
enterprise are Col. o. p. Posey, DIR. Ed
ward Bowes and J. D.. Sword. Assoc
ciated with them are some of the promi-
nent mine owners and capitalists OF
Goldfeld and Tonopah. The capital. ag-
g~regating s250.0O0. for the erection OF
the plant has been pledged, and the
works will have a daily capacity of 200
tons.
The advisability of erecting a smelter
in the neighborhooo of the
copper district has been under consid-
Grafton for a long time, and 1t was not
until after the most thorough investiga-
ton of the mines of the camp by COM
petent experts that a decision was
reached. Then the question OF the site
was carefully looked into. Hazen put
in a strong bid, and the final selection
of Nina was reached only after the

oooD GOLD FIND
IN YEHIMoToK DIsrnIcT

While there is not the slightest doubt
that Yerington will attain to Its greatest
fame on account of it's wonderful de-
posits of high grade copper ore, 1t Is
nevertheless a fact that the production
of gold will play no inconsiderable part.
says the Yerington Times.
During the years that have elapsed
etween the period of the first discov-
cries of copper and the sudden entrance
of Yerington into the limelight of red
metal camps. little II any attention has
been devoted to searching for gold.
Events of the past few weeks have
proven tina had the same energy been
expended in prospecting for the precious
metals as for copper. the district would
unquestionably have been well along in
its gold-producing era.
The latest find to attract no end Of
local attention was made public this
week. On the Red Bird claim. owned
by VIM. Richards and others. two well
defined veins have been uncovered car
rying splendid values in the yellow
metal. The larger of these two leads Is
IN feet in width. average samples from
which returned a gold value of $15S.20.
The other, IS feet from wall to wall, as
sayed $3.50 in gold per ton.
For some time past Mr.. Richards and
his associates have been showing speci-
mems of gold -bearing quartz which they
claimed were found in the main ore belt
made famous by the discoveries of cop
per. That they saw fit to keep the exact
locality of these finds a secret until the
present time is made plain by the fact
that thev had NOT found the ore body
from which the specimens came. which
were loaf. Now. however, since the
locality of the ledge has been ascer-
tanned there is no further reason to
keep the find from the public.
1t is the intention of the owners to
open up the estate at once with a view
to placing it upon a producing basis. In
the event that the values hold out at
they cannot fail to meet with sue
cess.

RICH ORE UNCOVERED in
BAXTER SPRINGS MINE

Baxter Springs, which is situated about
eight miles this side of Manhattan The
discovery was made soon after the
breaking out of the Manhattan excite
ment. and for a time II was thought that
Baxter Springs would eclipse Manhat-
tan: but the results Of the location work
were disappointing. and for the past two
years the camp has been practically
abandoned. X. l.. Parrott, president, and

Thursday, state that they now have six
miners at work. and that they will begin

the prosecution has had it postponed
from time to time. The attorneys for
the West End were here more than a
month ago. and they went through
Doth mines for the purpose of arming
themselves with legal thunder. Fol the
reason that hey have not been in a
hurry to push the suit to a hearing and
final settlement. there is an opinion in
the minds of some of the people of the
camp that the lawyers did not receive
consolation from their trip under
ground.
Meanwhile the MacNamara has been
enjoined from shipping any of the ore
in the mine, and the work in consequence
has been confined to development. From
a very good authority, it is learned that
this work has been very encouraging,
and that a new ore body, probably on the
same vein that is in dispute, has been
uncovered. The inference is that should

various questions in regard to the best
place had been analysed.
Nina is the terminus of the Southern
Pacific, the Tonopah and Goldfeld, as
well as the narraw gauge road known as
the Colorado and California, which runs
south to Keller. All of these roads
penetrate mining areas. and being a ter
minaI point the company will save extra
charge for ores that would be assessed
if two separate companies handled
them. Silicious ores from Goldfeld. as
we'll as the gold-silver ores from other
sections, will be wanted for fiuxing pur-
poses.
That the smelter will prove a success
is the opinion of competent metallur-
gists, and smelter men who have exam
ined the conditions. The one drawback
question of fuel. but this is said to have
been overcome by a contract with the
railway companies for the Transporter

very low rate.-Mina Miner.

not more than a few weeks, it is ex-

where the ore disappeared on the upper

The Tonopah Mining company is still
combining it's shipments to the mill at

ter situation is cleared. up. The mill
shipments average about three thousand
tons a week. The work on the Belmont
is largely confined to developing and
prospecting work in the lower levels,
and there is little ore being taken out
for the mill, and none at all for the
smelter. The Midway still continues to
send away two hundred tons of ore a
week to the smelter, while engaged in
the prospecting work at the eight hun
dred level.

The mines all opened last Wednesday

a reduced scale. the old scale being
