HAS
RICH FIND
Con. Virginia Strike Is
One of Richest In
Many Years

VIRGINIA. CITY, July 21.-The
discovery made on the 2100-level of
Con. Virginia last week is of greater
magnitude than was supposed.
While the management is reticent
regarding the strike it is learned on
good authority that the drift is in five
feet of ore that will assay better than
$50 per ton. The other wall of the
ledge has not been reached and spec
ulation is rife as to the extent of the
discovery. The stock responded to the
news of the strike and passed the dol
lar mark yesterday. A week ago it
was lowering around so cents. e.-
Herman Zadig. prominent in Com
stock circles, is credited with having
taken sample from the ledge that
assayed over $500 per ton. Con. Vir-
ginia has always been the leader in
the Comstock list and the prediction
is freely made that it will reach the
IS mark before the boom is over.
The discoveries in the famous old
mine have always been made on a
comparatively small scale, and in
creased in extent and value. The Did
timers here are swearing by the
mine and claim that the new find
will equal anything struck here or
elsewhere in recent years. t., a.
Mexican IS also in the limeliglt, a
discovery being reported today. 1t IS
not exactly a discovery but an inn
proyement, in the northeast drift on
the 220O. Work was started there re-
Gently on the vein where the Ophi-
company left off when the drift reach
ed the latter company's north bound :
ary line. The Mexican company took
up the work on the same vein where
the Ophir is getting its hish grade.
The ledge is continuous, and of mill
ing value. The reports current to-
night say that there is a marked .m-
movement in the value OF the ore.
In fact, it is said that the nre show
ing in the face Of the drift is as rich
as that now being extracted in the
Ophir, which assays $75 per ton and
upwards.
1t was only last Saturday that the
company posted a. notice stating that
the employees would receive ~ per
cent cut from the net proceeds Of any
new discovery. The miners reward
has come in a short time. and IS the
cause of considerable rejoicing.
