JACK SALSBERRY
ARRIVES IN TOWN
HAS GREAT FAITH IN RAWHIDE
WHERE HE is HEAVILY
INTERESTED

After an absence of three months,
Colonel Jack Salsberry, mining man,
lumber king and general good fell
low, dropped into Tonopah last night.
Jack has been to many camps and
invariably has he been successful.
With him were Count Frank Bon
neau and o. B. Kemp. The party
had a long drive here, having lett
Rawhide Monday for a visit to the
Reese River district. A day was
spent at Gweenah, the new camp now
in the limellght, where they took
samples of several properties,
"Tonopah looks good to me-" said
Mr.. salsberry, while scanning tho
stock list, and observing that Tono-
pah Mining was quoted at $3.50 bid,
and | certainly am glad to get
back
Speaking of the conditions at Raw
hide, where he is largely interested,
MIR. Salsberry continued:
The investors are now rapidly get
ting their money back, for nearly ev-
cry day a new lease is being adde1
amongst the shippers. We have six
teams that are busy hauling in lum-
Der, and ON the outgoing trip are
loaded with ore. Among the leases
now shipping are the Kearns No. /,
Kearns No. 2, Murray, Tanner and
Reynolds, and the Big Four. Tht
Truett is running their ore through
the Gates mill.
ION the Poor Boy property we have
nineteen working leases and nearly
all of them are saeking the high
grade. The conditions are greatly ex
aggerated concerning the number o.
deaths reported there, for | honestly
believe that there has not been ovel
twenty deaths in the camp since IT.

consideration that there. are ovel
5000 people in there.
Real estate has been kited on
of sight, but is gradually coming
back to near where 1t should be.
Many investors are being attract
ed to the camp, and you know tina
is a class of people that are needed
in a new place. Rawhide certainl.
has all the earmarks of becoming
one of the greatest producers in tn,
state.

GREAT LEDGE OF
$4,000 ORE FOUND

If a report given out in this city
last night by L. 4. Brockbank, T. X.
James and others is true, the new
mining camp of Selby, in the West
Comstock mining district today has
the richest u~ndeveloped mine in the
state of Nevada. These gentlemen
arrived from Selby and brought with
them samples of ore taken from the
newly-discovered ledge on the prop
erty owned by Bud Barclay and j. NJ.
Benton of this city. This ore is of
white quartz, scanned with iron sui
phides, which carries the gold. The
samples they displayed in Reno were
taken from a twenty-foot ledge, and
according to their statements, the
ledge will run $500 across the face
in gold and eighty ounces in silver.
They declare that they have assay
certificates to show this, and that al
though the statement sounds absurd,
they are ready to vouch for it.
The ore does not show a particle
of free gold, but it is the same char
acter of ore that was taken from
many Of the rich mines of California
years ago. 1t is a beautiful white
quartz and carries values that will
make Selby the greatest mining camp
In Nevada within another year. The
news Of the rich strike created much
excitement and many left for the
camp.
Selby is becoming . familiar name
in Reno and prospectors from all
parts of the state are preparing u
enter that new camp. The past glor-
les of the old Comstock. only q few
miles from the wonderful strikes OF
the West Comstock district, leads all
p~rospectors to believe that a new
Comstock lead has been uncovered
and that the West Comstock districl
will soon be the leading mining dis.
trict of Nevada.

KEY pITTMAN is
VISITING GRANITE
ATTRACTED TO NEW CAMP NEAR
ELY BY THE GOOD
REPORTS

Key Pittman Of Tonopah. one OF
the most prominent attorneys and
mining men in the state. accompan-
led by his wife, arrived from Tonopah
in his sixty-horsepower Thomas a
at noon today, and after taking suf-
icient time to eat dinner, left again
IN company with d. s. Dickerson for
the Granite districs. where he will
spend several days making a per-
sonal inspection of the mines Of the
district.
The most encouraging reports con-
tinue to come in from the camp.
Within the past two days a number
of business men Of Ely have made a
hasty inspection of the district i'm
mediately surrounding the Blaine.
Leaving town in the morning, it was
necessary to look after their business
interests in the city; hence were not
in a position to inspect the entire
district. Among those who r%eturne8
yesterday were o. Il. Mann, civil en-
gineer, Manager Castle of the Ora
ham Mercantil Cos. store. Martin
Naylon of Naylon & Callahan, Frank
Watt of the Ely Furniture company
c. G, Caperton, Joe johnson, A. Z :
Harrington, and others whose names
were not learned.
All expressed themselves as veil
pleased with what portion of the dis
trict they had seen, especially the
Blaine mine, which was sampled by
nearly everyone. The samples taken
from the mine were panned on the.
ground, and everyone OF them showed
plenty of the yellow stuff, according
to the reports of the gentlemen who
tested the rock.
Messrs. Watt, Caperton and John.
son, the latter with his family, left
this morning for Blaine. where they
intend to remain for some time thor
oughly inspecting the district and do
ing the preliminary work on some
claims which they were fortunate
enough to secure by location a few
days ago.
The town of Blaine is thriving.
People are going into the camp every
day, and but few are coming out
Those who have come out have beer
largely compelled TO do so in order
to secure mine equipment with which
to work. Tents and buildings are.
going up daily, and the one weeK oil
camp is beginning to assume city
airs.
Prospectors throughout the district
are bringing in specimens from new
finds, and, taken all in all, the camp
is a sure winner.-Ely Expositor.

GOOD NEWS FROM
THE CoMSToCK

Probably the best piece of news
that has been given out on the Com
stock in years reached Reno yester-
day. IT stated that 800 additional
men are to 20 TO work on the Chollar
Groupings by April /, says the Reno
Journal.
The news was given out by Thomas
Barns of Virginia City and Goldheld,

his way to Gold Circle.
According to Mr.. Burns, Charles
Eaters, who owns tho enormous re-
duction plant in six-Mile canyon, near
Virginia City, has secured control of
the Chollar and will work the crop
pings in that mine. II is his inten-
tion to put the large additional force
IN work, which will about double the
number Of men now at work in vir-
gina City.

good on the Comstock, everybody be-
Ing at work and the town more pros.

RICH STRIKE THAI
sTARTLEs BELIEF

Intelligence of a startling nature
has just leaked ont concerning con-
ditions in the great Seven Troughs.
mine, near Vernon. In spite of the
secrecy of the company, a widening
of the high grade streak to proper
tions that stagger belief, is reported.
Said an employe yesterday: "A
few days ago | drilled for three feet
into solid high grade, every inch of
which showed coarse free gold. The
rock is 81 incredibly rich that for
tunes are contained in single cubic
yards OF it. ] am not exaggerating

that ore averaged between $40 and
$40 a pound in value. I wouldn't
hesitate an instant In declaring thar
we have Just opened up a body OF
ore in the Seven Troughs mine three
feet wide that will hold up that high
average
Speaking OF the high grade streak
in general, this miner said: .'The,
special streak of enrichment in the
Seven Troughs is continuous as far
as we have sunk or drifted, for 500
feet down. 1t can be followed with
the eye, so plainly does the free gold
show up. as 1t changes from its posi-
ton from n side Of the vein to the
other, always staying inside the
quartz body. II varies in width from
an inch to three feet. and sometimes
even pinches entirely of, only to be
gin again Immediately, and carry ITS
high values on down. In many places
the enriched streak is from sin to
sixteen inches thick"
Asked as to what the company was
doing with the rich streak, he said;
For the most part they have been
stripping the ore and leaving II
standing, although they cut through
it often and sack some"
AS to how much ore Is blocked out
in the mine. he said. u wouldn't

If the three-foot body we have Jus.

THE WILD HORSE
CANYON IL RICH

A series of remarkable recent
strikes has turned the attention 0
the entire Seven Troughs district to
the region of Wild Horse canyon, one
to two miles north of Mazuma and
Seven Troughs, a new rich region
that has begun to bring forth speci-
men ore in sensational quantities not
far from the very center Of the dis
trict.
A strike here yesterday on the
Wild Bull property comes as a startl-
ing climax to discoveries that have
excited the camp for several weeks.
At the bottom of an eighty-foot shaft
on this property a system of remark
ably rich stringers have converged
into a solid body of ore that is re-
turning assays Of from $500 a ton
to as many thousand dollars a ton.
Much Of the rock is literally glisten-
ing with free gold. and there is a
streak that shows the dark telluride
of gold in liberal quantities, this
rock showing bubbles of gold when
heated in the forge.
In the North Pole property, ad-
joining the Wild Bull on the north,
the 100-foot level has disclosed a
~twelve-foot ledge containing a mas
sive body of shipping ore running all
the way, from 5000 to more than
$4,000 a ton. Pieces of tellurium
gold have been found here as large
as the end of ones finger. The 100
foot level marks the junction of two
veins. and the enrichment extends SC
far that the limits of the milling ore
have not yet been found.
Both properties are saving ore fol
early shipments.
These discoveries In Wild Horst
canyon add q fourth territory o.
special enrichment to the three prev.
iously discovered-the first at thu
south end of the district, near Yer
non, with the great Seven Troughl
and Buckhora mines as the center
the second, three miles further, neal
Seven Troughs and Mazuma, in Sew

north from Vernon. near Farrell
