it was the policy of the company to
continue operations at the Day mine
on at least as large a scale as in the
past, and just as soon as conditions
would permit, the force would be
very materially increased.
It seems that in the early work
ings of the mine, the operators OBJ
ject was to get the richest ore lr
sible, and in pursuance of this end,
systematic mining was in a measure
lost sight of. The company will
work toward getting the mine in q
position for the production of the
large tonnage of which II is capable,
which will require but a month or
so; and then we may look for some
thing handsome in the way OF ton
mage from this t'old standby" of the
local mineral belt. A boiler has been
erected at the Day mine and bricked
in. The boarding and lodging houses
have been repaired and every com
fort of the men looked after. A pipe
line and pumping plant is being In
stalled, so that the water can be
pumped directly from the tracks to
the mine, thus doing away with the
former method of hauling it by team.
Machine drills will be put in and
everything consistent with modern
mining taken advantage of.
Associated with Gaskill in the
management Of the Nevada-Utah
properties, is L. Webster Wickes,
who holds the position of supeTin-
tendent. Wickes is also a man of
large experience in the mining world.
Before coming to Phoebe he was as
ISOLATED with the Ely-Witch proper
ties in Ely. The experience and the
knowledge which the above gentle
men bring to the Nevada-Utah, as
, sures for that company handsome re-
turns in the way of mineral produc-

pany upon it's selection.-PiOche Rec

HIGH GRADE AT
JACKSON MOUNTAIN

WINNEMUCCA, Jan. The lat
est news to be brought from Jackson
Mountain was received on last Tues
day, at which time c. E. Carpenter
and wife arrived from Loco Springs
on their way to Reno, where Mr.. Car
penter expects to close a deal on
some of his many properties in that
section. He stated that all the work
on the tunnel started for the pur-
pose of tapping the ledge on the Can
non Ball property is finished and
that he was busily engaged in driving
claims in which he is interested.
From each of these properties high
grade ore is being extracted of rich
gold, silver and lead values, and from
the size of the ledge and extent OF
ore bodies the supply OF ore seems
inexhaustible. Though little develop
nabar ledge discovered by Mr.. Car
penter last year, some distance away
from his other properties, the amount
done warrants the belief that it will
prove to be as rich as any in the
State or county. Many mining men
have visited it since his discovery
and pronounce it to be extraordin-
arily rich with quicksilver.

RICH ORE FROM
SEVEN TRoUGHs

~
The Mazuma Hills Leasing Com
pany, operating the Reagan lease on
the Mazuma Hills property, sent out
a shipment of ore this week which is
not only the first shipment to go out
from any lease, but is the record
shipment of the district in gross
value. 1t is the fifth shipment OF
ore from the Mazuma Hills property,
following within a week the latest
high grade shipment from the COM
pany workings and the recently de-
clared policy of the company hence
forth to ship regularly, avs the
Seven Troughs Miner.
The present shipment consists of
twenty-five tons of ore running up to
more than $4,000 per ton, and aver
aging, according to a long assay rec
ord, better than $1,000 a ton. The
shipment included 100 sacks Of Sc
lected high grade, the general ave
age of value of which is sensationally
high. This latter consignment which
Immediately followed the main ship
ment, consists largely of specimen
ore. some of which will run better
than So a pound. The entire ship
ment is believed to represent the
greatest value in ore yet sent out of
the district.
This consignment of high grade is
the product of about two months
work on the rich ore shoot uncovered
from the Reagan incline shaft at APP
proximately the 100-foot level, and is
incidental mainly to the development
and preparations of the lease for flu
ture production.
Ever since Mr.. Reagan struck the
ore, a few men have been taking II
out while the drift has been pushed
south to connect with the working
shaft about 200 feet distant ant
! northward to determine the exten
/, of the ore shoot in that direction
Neither of these objects have We
