NINE LISTED
Jesse Knights Latest Tintic
Flotation Will Be Called
on Change Today.

Another of Jesse Knights Tintic flota-
tons was listed on the mining exchange
yesterday. and will be called for the first
time this morning. 1t is the Dragon Min
ing company, organized last month 20
take over the old Dragon iron mines and
contiguous ground embracing, all told. six
teen claims. fifteen of which are patented.
The company is capitalized for 500, 900
only, the 100000 shares having a par
value of 10 cents each. There is no treas
ury stock, but the company has $742.S0 in
the treasury and nineteen carloads of iron
ore in transit to the smelter, Jesse knight
is president of the company and R. Z. AL
len secretary, while the headquarters of
the corporation is at Provo.
The mines have been developed by a
single compartment shaft $50 feet deep,
a three-compartment shaft 600 feet deep,
4646 feet of tunneling, 20 feet of wines,
291 feet of raises. and 1,226 feet of cross
cuts. Ii is equipped with two hosting
plants and all other necessary parapher-
MALTA for regulation mining.
There is a firm belief in the camp of
Tintic that underlying the iron deposits in
this splendid property will be found some
of the biggest and richest ore deposits in
the Tintic district and ii is understood
to be the purpose of Mr.. Knight to dem
onstrate that fact at the earliest possible
moment.

NEVADA UNITED MINES
BEGIN SHIPPING HERE

AS stated in the Expositor last week.
the Nevada United Mines at Ward will
commence TO ship ore to the Utah smell
tiers on Monday, when six teams will bring
in the first loads from there to be sent
from here over the Nevada Northern.
says the Ely Expositor
The progress of the development work
in the mine is opening up very large ton
mage of ore of shipping grade, ana the
shoot has been found to be wider than
where the forces were working week
ago. and is now full seven feet wide. A
small shift of men can break an immense
amount Of ore from a body that wide.
and when 1t Is more than half lead II rap
idly makes the output size up in carload
lots.
The go foot drift is nearing the ore, and
IL at that level the ore shoot is as large
as in the level 100 feet above. from which
the present production is being made. it
is estimated the body will contain 100000
tons of shipping ore This alone will keep
a large force of miners busy a long timc
to extract 1t and will net the company
millions Of dollars In dividends on the in
vestment

EVADA-DOUGLAS HAS
MILLIONS IN COPPER

Some idea of the development work be-
ing done in just one mine in this district
can be had when II is known that at this
time the Nevada-Douglas mine is doing
nothing but development work. is doing
no stopping, and yet they are shipping sixty
tons of high-grade copper ore to the smell
ter at Salt Lake City every week. says
the Yerington Times.
1t must cost them nearly S. ton to get
the ore to the railroad. Then, with rail-
road and smelter charges to pay, you
can imagine that the ore must be good
to net the company anything. 1t does net
the company considerable and is Just one
of those naked facts that go to prove that
this is the greatest copper district in the
country
No one driving through this section
would know there was a Nevada-DouglaS
mine, and yet we venture the prediction
that in the next five years that property
alone will produce more than S25.OOo.OOO
worth of copper ore. and that will be just
the beginning.

NIXON & WINGFIELD
MAKE STRIKE AT RAMSEY

The Diamond Queen mine is the scene
of a strike that is likely to bring Ramsey,
New, into the forefront of Nevada camps
before the close of the year. For many
months Ramsey has been quiet, and no
rich discoveries have been reported. but
Nixon and Wingfield invested in a prop
erty there few months ago.. and now
wonderfully rich strike has been reported
on their ground
Captain A H. Wayne of this city last
spring sold to the great mining firm
half interest in the Diamond Queen. and
the new owners Immediately began devel.
oping the ground on an extensive scale,
They sunk on the vein for fifty-five feet,
and last week uncovered a four-foot shoot
of ore In drift from the fifty-five foot
station that will run $50 ton in gold.
The ore is a sulphide. and those who have
seen il state that il is the best ore ever
discovered in the district The owners are
now sinking on the vein and If 1t continues
to a reasonable depth. the Diamond Queen
mine will prove to be one of the big bo-
nanZas of the west. Salt Lakers are in
terested in several properties at Ramsey.
