TRAMPs CONTINUES
TO SHIP RICH ORE

superintendent Garden Of the
Tramp Consolidated is continuing 10
sack high grade on the drift between
the Tramp and Eclipse shafts, and
has already extracted several tons,
since the shipment of two weeks ago.
The ore is the same in character as
that hitherto found, and will PROB
ably average $500 a ton.
The rich streak shows no decrea 3e
of values and besides the shipping
material, a generous amount of high
grade mill ore is being saved.
Mr.. Garden has started a level
above the present workings and win
stope up to it.
Work is being continued on the
coo, and the north drift following
the foot wall is in 1876 feet. The
south drift on the hanging wall Is n
l45 feet. Crosscuts have shown the
vein to be 10 feet in its narrowest
place, and from this it goes as high
as twenty feet, all good milling ore.
The walls are we'll defined and ths
body continuous.-Bullfrog Miner.

shelter Near Carson.

The Western Smelter Corporation.
the newly organized and Independent
shelter which was incorporated April
9th, is now a certainty and as II vii
operate entirely independent OF tie
trust, will fill a long felt want .o 5he
mining interests of this State.
The plant will be located five and
a half miles northeast of Carson, on
the banks of Carson river, and or the
site of the old Merrimac & Brunswick
plant, which was in operation in that
section some 40 odd years ago. and
which is still well remembered by
many of the old timers.
For a distance Of from one-half to
four miles from where the plant will
be located the company has secured
all the fiuxes and iron. Enough cop
per and gold ores are on the dumps of
nearby mines to start the smelter and
keep it running for some time in the
future, but as the company will OPP
crate one of the largest smelters in
the West it will be able TO handle all
the ores shipped 1t.
The Western Shelters Corporation
was incorporated for 10, 900
shares. The officers are: James A.
Yerington, president; p. b. Warner,
vice-president and general manager.
Mr.. Warner left last evening fol-
New York and other Eastern cities in
the interests of the corporation and
upon his return the plant will be hui.

A NEW COMPANY
ON THE COMSTOCK

A company is operating over on
the Comstock which has received but
l,ttle attention from the press of that
quarter, but which, nevertheless, Is
preparing to make things hum in that
locality, says the Jumbo Miner.
The company in question WINS the
Golden Gate, lying alongside the
0phir. The Ophir has one of the
largest and richest ore bodies in the
State, and a suit was recently settled
wherein the Golden Gate company
claimed $4,000, 600 for ore alleged to
have been wrongfully extracted by
the Ophir company.
The company acquired by purchase
the old Vermont claim, on which
there is a shaft 500 feet deep. WORE
was started last year cleaning out
and repairing the shaft and consider
able progress was made. Since that
time a large shaft house and other
buildings have been erected. The
head frame is sixty feet high, and is
located outside of the buildings, fol-
lowing the modern practice.
The company has recently installed
a 120-horse power electric hoist ct
the latest pattern. All the cages,
skips, cars and other equipment are
the most efficient that could be pro-
cured. A power line has been com
pleted TO the works and operations
will be resumed at once on an ex-
tensive scale.
The shaft will be cleaned out and
repaired TO the bottom, and at that
point sinking will be resumed and the
shaft put down to the Sutro tunnel
level, or 1900 feet. 1t is probable
that prospecting will be started be-
fore that depth is reached. At any
event the mine is in a rich territory,
and it is a certainty that large ore
deposits will be encountered at any
point where prosecuting may be COM
menced.
r. Hewson is general manager OF
the company. 1t is said to be well
fixed financially, and to be able to
carry out its plans. The stock is held
largely by people in the Puget Sound
country, and there is a large number
of them in Virginia City to inspect
the work already done and to witness
the starting of the new plant.

RAWHIDE GROWS

YER KENDALL SAYS CAMP HAS
MINES THAT WILL sTARTLE
THE WORLD.

Zeb Kendall came in from Rawhide
more impressed than ever with the
great mineral possibilities of that
camp.
THE properties all seem to be
making good" said Mr.. Kendall,
yesterday. 81 personally inspected
at least a dozen or more Of the
leases. On the Kearns No. 2, on the
70-foot level, there is a permanent
ledge which l should say is 40 or so
feet in width. Paintings from it,
which | made myself, enables me to
say emphatically that 1t is the richest
thing that I have ever seen. The re-
suits from the paintings reached be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000. The mine
Is making the most remarkable de-
velopments that was ever known or
heard, of in any mine, and | believe
that the lease is developing into on :
of the greatest in the world.

paintings from which went $50 to the
ton. The sulphides are a SURE indi-
cation of permanency, so there is no
telling as to what depths that the
vein may reach. The Kearns No. .
is only $50 feet deep. but develop
ments at that depth are such as to
startle the mining world.
"Fhe Royal Tiger made it's first
shipment this week. sending out orc
that will run $3.50 to the ton"
Mr.. Kendall says that the work be-
ing done by the leasers is almost b.
yond conception. They are pushing
development in every direction. New
hoists are coming in almost daily.
Work is progressing on the railway,
and it will not be long before tn
whistle of a locomotive will be heard.
Il is understood a contract has been
let for a mill near Walker Lake.

RUSH WORK ON
THE SIERRA TUNNEL

RENO. New, May 21.-The work
of construction of the tunnel through
the Sierra Nevadas at Chilcoot will
be rushed with great activity by the
Western Pacific officials during the
coming summer. Slow progress has
been made this winter, but orde s
have been issued to increase the
force, and during the summer months
to rush the construction with all pos
sible speed. This is the information
brought by j. +. Gilnaugh and j.. G.
Steele of Chilcoot and Spring Gar
den.
It is estimated that the building
of the tunnel through the Sierra
will take at least a year, but when
copmlteed the main work of the
Western Pacific will be finished, and
within two years the new road will
be running trains through Reno from
the Great Salt Lake 10 tide water in
the West.

players distribute themselves about the
room, the Gorgon taking III a position

dren, but he is not permitted to run
after them. He must not move faster
than a walk. His only hope, therefore,
is to pen the others in a corner where

them as they run past. A girl or boy,
when caught, is supposed to turn to
stone instantly and must remain in
