FRENCH RACING car
CORDIALLY RECEIVED HERE

AS each car in the New York to Paris
race arrives in Goldfield 1t is greeted
with greater enthusiasm than it's fore
runners. The latest car to arrive was
the French racer of De Dion-B outon
make.
Five Goldfeld machines, the Mac
kenzie Thomas. two of the Consolidated
autos and the Lotus & Davis Pope
Hartford ran over to Tonopah to meet
the ~Frenchmen, who were delayed until
late Tuesday afternoon repairing a
sprung axle and generally overhauling
the car.
1t was after night when the line of
autos cam up Broadway at a rapid clip
and halted at the telegraph office and in
front of c. F. Kapp's place. in ~recogni-
ton of the ~latter's efforts to make the
celebration a success. The autos were
filled with the racers and member of
the reception committee, American and
French flags being displayed in abund-
ance.
A reception and banquet were rendered
at the Hotel Casey. At the conclusion
OF the banquet Judge Hayes in a very
happy speech presented the voyageurs
with handsome and valuable specimens
of ore from the Rogers-Syndicate lease.

The Goldfield White Rock Mining
company. owned by the Begole Mines
Syndicate, has started work at their
No. I shaft. This shaft Is 525 feet deep.
1t is proposed to run a crosscut from
the bottom across country in the direc-
ton of the Combination shaft of the
Consolidated company.
This work will be watched with much
interest by the mining men of the dis
trict. Captain Hooper is president of
the White Rock company and a gentle
man of wide experience. 1t has long
been his Opinion that such a crosscut
at depth would reveal bodies of ore that
will compare favorably with those of
adjacent properties. Certainly such a
crosscut as proposed will be of large
value to the district.
In sinking No. : shaft Captain Hooper
cut several lodges carrying values.
These will also be p~rospected.

=. L. T., lh1le0olph1a. The recent
jump in Tonopah Mining from $3.50 to
$3.50 is attributable more to the change
in management than to any improvement
in the physical condition of the mine.
The output for the past week or two has
not been up to the average. as two of the
shafts were idle during the change in
power from the ~company's plant at
Millers to the power furnished from
Bishop creek by the Nevada California
Power company. The latter mpan
furnishes the power cheaper than Tono-
pah company can, although it owns it's
own plant, because of the cost of labor,
fuel, etc. The ore bodies in the different
drifts, crosscuts and Slopes in the sew
eral levels above the 500 in both the Miz-
pah and Silver Top claims. continue to
look fine. On the 90O-foot level the big
body of quartz has been crosscut from
wall to wall without showing any COM
mercial value. Drifting to the west has
been resumed. and has now followed the
quartz body for a distance of 100 feet,
the face showing very low values. The
run of the ore mined and milled has
averaged nearly $25 a ton for several
months.
=. L. J., San Francisco. A compromise
has been signed between the parties at
issue IN the Litigation Hill mining suit
at Manhattan. This suit has been in the
courts since the latter part of 1905 and
recently was appealed to the supreme
court. The parties were the Manhattan
Union Mining company, the Manhattan
Union Extension Mining company and
the Liberty & Justice Mining company
and according to the agreement the
Manhattan Union Extension company
will transfer to the Liberty & Justice
company a certain half of the Union No.

ends the law suits that for a time looked

One-Piece Evening
Costumes Very Popular

Evening gowns are of draperles, also
of one piece, as opposed TO skirts and
bodices. While the newest models are
not literally in one piece, yet the number
of parts that actually enter into the COM
position of dinner or party frock to give
the desirable long" effect are astonish-
ingly few, and therefore each Is large. For
example an imported model in mustard
colored satin had the under petticoat
full founce of knee depth. The upper
part of the gown was formed by two bias
pieces of the goods, draped to define the
figure, and then brought around with
sweep below the hips and over to the
back. 1t does not sound attractive, per-
haps, but the effect on woman with
good figure would be charming. Where
the upper Joined the f1ounce it was turned
under and fastened. not to show hem,
but rather like puff.
An under (Or separately petticoat that
still is a part of the dress is one of the
pronounced modes OF the season. At pres
eEt the petticoat is the same in material
and shade as the upper but 1t Is not I'M
likely that after time combinations will
be adopted.
a most charming party frock that is
being made for a fashionable woman is
of white satin, the petticoat plain except
for d deep hem. One piece of material
tie front OF the skirt to within twelve
inches of the hem. A similar piece hangs
from the back. and just enough material
is used at the side to cover the lining and
give sufficient fullneSs for the scant over
dress. At the left side of the bust the
satin is caught into folds. making
drapery across the front. held by spray
OF artificial flowers. Just above the left
knee similar drapery. only more pro-
nounced. Is achieved by lifting the goods
a trtie after the folds are gathered.
Flowers also make the fastening. The
finish about the square decolletege is
plain. This is gown that person who
understands draping could make at home
at small expense
Panel effects are much used in evening
dresses and are desirable because of the
aid they give in creating slender ap-
pearance.
Women who are SO fortunate as to have
old lace can employ it In this fashion. In
cidentally. brocade frOcks can be used in
this same way.
The old costumes can be cut, the ma
terial serving trimmings on new stuff.
the color of which should be chosen to
match one of the soft tones of the old
goods. For example, brocade showing
blue in its design may be laid on a new
