VEIL OF SECRECY
AROUND DIVORCE

NEW YORK, May 6.-Friday next
is the day set for the commencement
of the trial in the Supreme Court O.
a suit for an absolute divorce brought
by Mae C. Wood against United
States Senator Plat, she claiming
that his marriage to Mrs. Lillian
Janeway is void because, as his wife,
she had prior claim on him.
The trial is likely to be sensational
and unusual precautions are being
taken to keep the facts secret An
nouncement was made yesterday tha1
no reporters will be allowed inside
the rail at the trial and that they
will have to take such seats as may
be vacant in those reserved for spec
tators and witnesses. 1t was said
yesterday that they might be kept
out of the courtroom altogether by
enforcing an old rule which gives a
justice the privilege of excluding all
persons from the courtroom not di.
rectly connected with case. the ties.
timony in which. he believes. might
affect the public morals. Every ef-
fort was made in the Maloney and
Vanderbilt cases to keep the docu-
ments in the case from the represent-
atives of the newspapers, and it is
not at all improbable that simil1:
methods be adopted in the Plat case.

TURNING OUT
The BEST WORK

The bindery of the Bonanza is
turning out the best work in the
city, and it is giving such great salts
faction that anyone who has his work
done there once, never goes anywhere
else. The plant is the finest and
most complete, not only in the State,
but this side of San Francisco. We
can turn out all kinds of work that
is demanded in the offices of lawyers,
brokers. promoters, mining compan-
les. or for any other kind of business,
and we guarantee satisfaction in
every respect. One trial will be suffi-
Client TO establish the truth OF this
statement. 1t pays to go where only
the best kind of work is done, aad
1t pays to patronize home Industry.

BOYD BASINS RICH
MINERAL BELT

Up in the northern part of Hum
boldt county, 100 miles northwest Of
Winnemucca, in the Boyd Basin dis
trict, one of the greatest free milling
ore discoveries in recent years has
just TRANSFERRED.
This vast mineral belt is confine
principally to the Pine Forest range
that extends from the Oregon line Oh
the north to the Black Rock desert on
the south. The formation in the great
part consists of granite and porphyry.
The remarkable feature of this c 'e
zone is the vast number of large
lodges that vary from 10 to 80 feet in
width On many of these lodges free
gold can be PANIED across the entire
face with values averaging from $40
streaks are found in the lodges from
four to eight inches in width, which
assay many times up into the thou
sands.
Messrs. Lane and Bryan, the pio-
neer locators here, have been quietly
at work here since last summer.
These gentlemen own and control the
Rainstorm group. On this property
is 160-foot tunnel and three shafts
that are down all the way from 40 to
75 feet. Their ore Is in true assure
veins from . to 16 feet in width. 1t
has been found that greater values
are found with depth. Samples from
recent strikes on this property show
values from $54.40 to $23,390 per
ton. Many samples from this dis
trict can be found at the Humboldt
star Office in Winnemucca.
j. Il. Davidson and Anthony Lil-
norish of Salt Lake have recently un-
covered lodges that pan magnificent
ly. In fact all properties are showing
up well with development
Leasers and prospectors are en-
thusiastic to a man, as they all claim
that Boyd n-Florence-district
is the most highly mineralized gold
bearing region in the State of Ne
vada. Among these men are to be
found the same men who helped &c
make history in Goldfield and Vir-
rInia City.
Already fortune hunters are wind
ing their way toward this point.
The townsite of Florence that wa;
! Just laid out a few days ago, has al
ready commenced to grow. At present
store, lodging-house, blacksmith
shop, two saloons and several famil'
les compose the town. The district
badly needs an assayer, doctor, q
druggist and few carpenters. Seem
ingly every one that comes here |itl
the intention of going into business
soon gets the gold fever and goes tc
mining
BOYD Basin, as the name indicates
4 Ii q basin up In the Pine Fores
range with an elevation of $500 fee
and has a very delightful climate. a
beautiful mountain stream flows
through the town, which provides fol
ali domestic purposes. Wood for bot
domestic and mining purposes is n
ways near at hand.-Reno Gazette.

Mineral VS.. Agricultural
San Francisco, Dec. 8,

San Francisco, Dec. 8, 1908
To Editor of Amador Ledger:-
Reading an article in your paper
under the heading of 'Tangle in
Title,'' l wish to say that it seems
30 be tangle all through. If you
wish to have the straight goods on
the subject it as follows:
We bought from Miss Boardman
some eleven or twelve years ago, after
her mother died, all her rights to the
property, giving her the right to live
on the property as long as she wish
ed. The ground was government
ground, so we took it up as mineral
Her father had taken 1t up as mineral
many years before, but had lost all
rights to it by not having done
assessment work on it. Everything
went we'll until some spiteful people
put her up to claim the ground.
This she tried hard to do but IN
successfully. She then took it up as
homestead. When trying to prove it
of more value as agriculture than
mineral she could only get the same
couple of witnesses. whose names L
care not to mention. This has now
been at the land office at Sacramento
waiting for a decision. You can find
on record in your city, all deeds and
also assessments which we have done
for the past ten years.
Last July my brother and | while
doing assessment work struck rich
gravel. When the find got scattered
these people said that we were sailing
the gravel just to get decision as
mineral ground, but now that they
see that we are making preparations
to work it out, they think different.
So in my opinion. l think they are
going to try to cause more trouble.
But 1 do not see where, or on what
grounds they can start. 1t is now
up 10 the land office to give decis-
ion.
Now, Mr.. Editor, If you were to
give your decision what would it be-?
Yours,

MINING NOTES.

Bunker Hill. The output Of this
mine for the month OF November was
over S23, 000-the best record in the
history of the mine. This is over
$1,000 per stamp. No other mine in
the county at present is showing any
way near such product per stamp.
An extra dividend IN the nature of a
Christmas greeting of three cents per
share will be paid to the stockholders
on the Doth. Sinking is being vigor-
ously prosecuted, and will be pushed
ahead until sufficient depth is reach
ed to open two levels below the pre-
sent workings.
Treasure. - This property was
formerly known as the Hazard, and
is located between the Bunker Hill
and the Fremont. u. r. Poundstone
has been engaged III prospecting
operations tor some time, and has
reached depth of over 400 feet. At
this depth the mine shows up very
encouragingIy. The ore veins at this
depth assays we'll. and would yield a
good profit by actual milling. In
dications now point to the opening
up of another paying mine in this
section, which is fast forging to the
front in the output of bullion.
George Ham brio, who with tw G
other leasers, has been working a
portion of the Amador Queen ground
in Murphys guIch, returned from a
business trip to the city last Satur-
day. He accompanied shipment of
about half ton of rich ole, the pro-
ceeds of several months work. The
ore was sent to Selby's for reduction.
We have not heard how it PANIED out.
He also secured an extension of the
lease for two years. Ii. K. Showers,
who was one of the leasers, has with
drawn from the partnership and his
place has been taken by j. Holtz.
