MILL FOR THE PINE NUT

The work of erecting the stamp mill
by the Manhattan Pine Nut Mining
company, is nearly completed and the
stamps are ready for the initial IN.
The mill building is under way and the
pump to keep the shaft clear is being
installed.

north erosscut from the Wine on the
1,100-foot level has exposed two bodies
of ore, the first being 5 feet wide and
the second 6 feet wide, being separated
by about s feet of vein material carry
ing spots of ore. Drifts are now being
sent along these two bodies Of ore and
both faces show good ore.
Tonopah Extension
For the past week all operations on
the lower levels of the Tonopah Elk
tension mine have been suspended on
account of the work going on in the
shaft neal the surface. At the 35-foot
point a station is being cut from which
a north crosscut will be sent out under
meath the big ore dump. East aud west
crosscuts will be sent out from this
erosscut and raises put up to the surface
to tap the dump. The ore will be milled
at a local plant as soon as arrangements
are perfected. Owing to the shaft be
ing . single-eompartment n it was
necessary to stop work below. This
work should be completed early next
week, when operations win be resumed
below.

MacNamara

AS the development work progresses
the ore bodies in the MacNamara are
showing up stronger than ever. This
week the showing in the mine is one of
greatest satisfaction, as the bodies of
ore in two or three of the workings are
considerably stronger than ever. In the
western workings on the 300-foot level
about $50 feet west of the shaft, a raise
which has been sent up has tapped the
continuance of the vein which was
faulted and the top shows 2 feet of fine
ore. As an evidence of the strength of
the ore bodies, we call attention to the
shipments of ore from the mine during
the past month, which amounted to 81
cars, of an average of SO tons to the
car, making the total months output
sum up to 1,643 tons. During the past
week the output was seven ears of an
average of So tons to the ear, or a total
of 3S5 tons, all of which is going to the
Montana mill. This ore is of higher
grade than the average ore being milled
from Tonopah, and consequently a snug
sum is added to the treasury each
month. Throughout the mine a great
deal of development and prospecting
work is going on, as the MaeNamara
company has an exceedingly rich acre
age to open up. The principal work is
confined to the eastern portion of their
ground, which is providing all the ore
mined, though there are good bodies of
ore exposed in the western workings.
Jim Butler
The Jim Butler continues to present
an excellent appearance underground,
and the extensive development work
now in progress is showing the mine up
in fine shape. The ore bodies previously
reported on the different levels are be-
ing opened up by drifts and raises and
continue to show up strong and carry
good milling values. The station at the
bottom of the shaft on the 700-foot
level has been completed and prepare
tions are now being made to prospect
the company's ground at that depth.
The principal work will be done south

WEEKLY RESUME OF WORK
IN The MINES OF TONOPAH

ta :
of the shaft, where crosseuts will be
sent out to intersect the veins opened
up above. During the past week a total
of As feet of new ground was broken in
addition to the work in the slopes. The
shipments for the week consisted Of $50
tons to the Belmont mill.
Tonopah Mining
The remarkable progress made last
week in development and prospecting
work was almost duplicated this week
when a total of 1873 feet of new ground
was broken, 1917 of which was done
in Silver Top ground, and the balance,
271ia feet, in Mizpah and Red Plume
territory. This new work consists prin-
cipally of drifts and crosscuts, which
are being run in all directions in order
to prospect the ground. The diamond
7i0-foot level of the Silver Top has
reached a depth of 81 feet below the
level. The bottom of the hole shows
porphyry and quartz. 1t is the inten
tion to SEND this drill down at least
900 feet, in order to find out the for
nation at depth as quickly as possible.
Depth is also being obtained on the
Mizpah claim by the sinking of the
Mizpah three-compartment shaft. The
progress in this work has been retarded
the past three or -four weeks, owing to
the cutting out of a station at the 200
foot point and the transferring of the
air hoist, which was used in sending the
shaft down, from the 900-foot level.
This work will be completed within the
next few days and sinking resumed
early next week. The shaft will be sent
down to the 1,500-foot point at least
and extensive prospecting work done at
that depth.
West End
Good reports continue to be made
from the scene of the late discoveries
in the West End mine, and from the
present appearance of the ore bodies
they are capable of yielding a good
tonnage for some time to come. The
more work that is done upon them the
better the showing, and when the new
ore bins, which are about ready for use,
are completed, we expect to chronicle
increased shipments from this property,
as they have plenty of ore in the mine.
While some stopping is in progress, the
greater portion of the work now going
on consists of drifting and raising upon
the veins and opening the ore bodies
up, so that the ore can be extracted at
a nominal cost.
Midway
Outside of regular development and
prospecting work there is nothing to
report this week from the Midway. The
usual work is going ahead and good
progress made in the c%rosscuts, which
are opening up the ground on the upper
levels. Some improvement is noted in
the south crosscut on the 535-foot level,
where a good looking stringer of ore
has been cut. Although but 6 inches
wide, it is full of sulphides and carries
very good values. The ore shipments
for the week consisted of two ears of
80 tons each to the Belmont mill, carry
ing values considerably higher than the
ordinary run of mill rock.

to take the mules, and he started. He
had not gone very far, however, when
the mules became frightened and
started to run. He says that he held

his mouth became filed with mud, but
the mules ran until they got tired. No

SIX STATES
TO IMPROVE
OHIO RIVER

LOUISVILLE. KY, Oct. 22.-Sev-
eral hundred influential citizens of six
states-Pennsylvania West Virginia,
Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois
congregatad today at the Seelbach for
the annual convention of the Ohio VAL
ley Improvements association. The
sessions will be occupied with discus
sions of the important problems con-
nected with the securing OF nine
foot stage of the Ohio river from Pitts
burg to Cairo Ill. The gathering is the
largest and most important in he four
teen years history of the association.
Never before has the Ohio river been
at so low stage as it has this sum-
mer. or remained at low stage for
such a length of time, nor did the agl-
tators of the slack water system have
such a good argument in favor of the
nine-foot stage to Cairo.
The Ohio river has been placed, by
the direct agents Of the congress OF
the United States, at the head of all
rivers demanding improvement by the
federal government
The fact that the two dominant par
ties are committed to the work of I'M
proving the rivers makes it altogether
likely that the next session of con-
gress, no matter what the outcome OF
the election this fall, will see the pas
sage of appropriations sufficient &c
carry out the plan of the Ohio rive
board of engineers who have recon-
mended improvements such as Will ell

the guard was practically exOnerated'
although it is likely he will have to
stand trial before a court martial. 1t
was shown clearly that Henderson
acted only after he had called to the
prisoner to halt three times. The only
question was, did he have to shoot
to kill? At all events. he followed the
