Thousands of American women

In order to keep the home neat

drifting along from bad to worse,
knowing well that they ought to
have help to overcome the pains and

BIG GOLD STRIKE
IN MASON VALLEY


Another gold strike has been made
at Black Point, in the eastern section
OF Mason Valley, and from all ac-
counts the strike is going to be one
worth while. The news of the strike
was brought in last Thursday By
Deputy Sheriff George Swasey, who
has lust returned from that part Of
the country.
There is quite a deal OF excite
ment over the find" said Mr.. Swasey,
and there has been a rush for the
goldhelds. A company has been in
corporated and they have received at
least a hundred applications for
leases on the property, but it has
been announced that there win not
be more than nine let altogether.

hundred men have been employed
for several years. and the result of
this work is the development of a
great gold mine without the sounding
of trumpets.
Near Golconda it is proposed, at
an early date. to install a large in
dependent smelling plant and the
abundance of desirable smelling ore
near this point makes 1t an eligible
one for such a plant. The new pro-
cess recently installed by the Glas-
gow-Western Company is a positive
success on the ores of that corpora
ton and no doubt the size OF this
plant will be greatly increased at an
early date. The popularity of this
matter lies in the fact that all smell
ing theories are reversed in recover
ing values from these ores The large
estate owned by the company is stu
ated at Adelaide and is connected
with the reduction plant by a narrow
gauge railroad, twelve miles long.
Recent tests in this plant, from ores
in the Yerington district, have proved
a success, and at this time an ex-
haustive test is being made on ores
in carload lots secured from the IA
nous Cactus mine in Utah, of which
the we'll known mining operator
Samuel Newhouse of Salt Lake City
is the active spirit. Special ARE will
be made in the test Of the Newhous>
ores, for at this time that gentle
man is installing a very large smelt
ing plant and the belief prevails tina
the process of the Glasgow-WesterI
will be the correct one for this nev
plant, which will probably cost +
the neighborhood of 100000.
1t is proper to note that there ar
inexhaustible bodies of iow-grad
copper ores owned by the Glasgow
Western Company. which carry va
! ues of from 2 II to 3h per cent, yc
by the new process these values ar
J entirely sufficient to return a prof

On the 7O0-foot level they have

onstrates that the new management
is composed Of able, keen ana clear

Among the promised good things
for Austin are a custom mill, a pow
er plant at Big Greek for The pur-
pose of supplying power for the mill

cost about $4,000. 1t is the inten-
ton of the new management to SINK
several shafts on different properties

thereby opening virgin ground.
Therefore, we can readily see that 1t
will be the aim and object to open
up new ground and not depend eoieiy
upon the workings opened up AND
exploited years ago. Mr.. Smith says
the values are here and he IS COINS

There is not only ore on the 1000
level, there is ore also on the 500 and
the 900, and there will soon be a
body crosscut on the 700. On the
500 level, a crosscut has been III to
the south of east for a distance of
$50 feet, and then, turning, at the
northwest corner of the Occidental
claim, it has been run to the south
east $40 feet, where it has encoun-
tered the south vein, the latter run
ming northeast and southwest, the
dip being in the judgment of Super
intendent Brady, to the south.
The shoot of ground opened up at
this point is two hundred and
fifty feet in length, and the width
of the vein is between three and
three and a half feet. The ore will
average about $40 a ton. South Of
the south vein is another vein which

Another Deal
In RdWhide

Another deal has been made in
Rawhide, which argues well for the
confidence that is being placed in
that camp, and shows how the Tono-
pah people are taking hold of the
property.
X. l.. Parrot and II. w. Scheld of
Tonopah have bought a half interest
in the lease known as the Alexander
Anderson lease on the Owl claim Of
the Roseberry group on Hooligan or
Mcleod hill. This is one OF the
leases on which were found sensa-
tlonal gold values, and some Of the
richest gold specimens in the camp.
1t adjufns the Miller lease on the
same property, and is close in to the
Truitt lease, where on Monday last
there was found six inches of ore
which went $4,000 TO the ton, and
showed, besides, a breast of milling
ore six feet in width.
Messrs. PARROT and Scheld, with
w. w. Booth, arrived from Rawhide
yesterday, and are elated over the
success of their trip in having secured
an interest in the good property.
There Is no better showing OF
finer location in the camp" said Mr..
PARROT, yesterday. The lease was
originally owned by George Ander-
son, George Alexander, Fred Hughes
and L. II. kissing. We have taken
a half interest with them, and will
work the lease for all it is worth
1t has eighteen months to go, and
we are to pay a royalty of 22k pei

OLD PIoCHE CAMP
WILL NOW HUM

That work on the mines of this
district will be resumed upon q large
scale now seems an assured fact,
says the Phoebe Record. What diff
ferences that have existed between
the miners union and the Mine own
ers Association in regulation OF the
wage scale have been satisfactorily
adjusted for the present at least.
As a result of this the Nevada-Utan
corporation has very materially in-
creased its working force at the Day
mine at Jack Rabbit, about thirty
men having been sent out within the
last few days. Other mines are SEIZED
uled to follow suit and within a
month Phoebe should be experiencing
the boom so long 10Y due. Much
will depend upon the condition of the
metal market as to the extent OF tbs
operations. but as this seems TO b;

this source.

Ubehebe Mines
Are Doing Well

George Monroe arrived in Rhyolite
Monday after an eleven months So
journ in the Ubehebe mining district,
where he was fortunate enough to
secure three groups of claims, The
Elbe group contains two claims, To-
Gated north of the Ulida, and carries
copper principally, with some gold.
The Looney group of five claims has
a strong quartz lead in granite, and
carries gold. The Gale group of four
claims is south Of the Ulida property
and is a copper proposition.
In doing the assessment work on
some of the Elbe ground a copper
lead was found which proved to be
nineteen feet between walls, and
samples assayed at the Michigan
School of Mines returned IS per cent
copper. Mr.. Monroe brought some
samples in with him that should run
much higher than that. The Looney
has a ledge that can be traced for
over 1000 feet, with an average
width of eight feet.
The Ulida property, a near neigh
Dor Of Monroe's, is working steadily
and is backed by New York capital
lists. S~alsberry has let a contract to
run a 500-foot tunnel to tap the King
shaft at 500-foot depth. The shaft
was sunk 100 feet in ore and a cross
cut II 26 feet all in ore, carrying
copper and gold,
The Cerro Gordo in that same sec.
ton is an old mine which is said t
have produced twenty millions of ore
already. 1t changed hands the frs
of the year and is now owned by thu
Four Metals Company, the purchas'
price being given out as 100000.

GOLD REGIONS OF
NEVADA ATTRACT

H NAFHh
The gold districts of Nevada are
attracting especial attention at this
time from the fact that the ores are
more readily handled than those
which carry a percentage of silver,
lead or copper. Free milling gold
ores are at all times desirable be-
cause the fluctuations OF the market
for the baser metals more or less al
feet legitimate operations.
The north part of Nevada is a de-
sirable field for extensive operations.
for the deposits are not only Tree
milling in character, but at certain
points water is available for mining
ventures. South of Winnemucca Is
the very favorably known Gold Bank
district. in which good values have
been secured, and q number of prop
critics are being developed aggress-
lively. In the new district of Raw
hide strong operators have taken hold
and extensive operations may be an
