MINING MEN FLOCK
INTO THE DRAGONS
LEADVILLE AND VICINITY At
TRACT STRANGERS
Great Western Is Now at Work, and
Gold Nugget and Black Diamond
Prepare to Resume Oper-
ations

TOMBSTONE, Sept. Sword from
LeadviIe and vicinity would indicate
that the camp is assuming important
proportions. There is a constant
stream of mining men, business men
and working men going into that sec
tion of tn. Dragons of late and the
rains and cheering conditions seem to
stimulate interest in the district.
In regard to the accident which oc-
Cured there the other day, it seems
that the unfortunate man had re-
ceived a bad dose of powder smoke in
going down on the bucket in the Lead
willie No ]. When he came in con-
tact with the gas he became asphyX-
lated and fell from the bucket. He
fell near the collar, and the shaft is
something over 300 feet deep. The
body, when recovered, was hardly
recognizable.
George w. Swain, who has been al
most constantly occupied superintend-
ing the development of his mining
property in the Dragons, was in the
county seat again recently and is very
enthusiastic in regard to the outlook
in his district in general and his prop
erty in particular
There is a prospect cf an early and
vigorous renewal of active operations
in the Black Diamond at an early day.
The old j. B. Angus property Will
very soon resoundsto the echo of active
work and a new mill Will doubtless
take the place of the five-stamp affair
which was moved to the Gold Nugget
in the Dos Cabezas.
Work on the Great Western is pro-
crossing quietly and eminently salts
factorily. The property is destined tc
he a bonanza.

GOLD MOUNTAIN is ACTIVE
AFTER YEARS OF lDLENESS

After remaining idle a quarter of
century the old Oriental mine, now
known as the Monarch, in Gold noun
tains, New, is the scene of activity.
The property, which is now owned by
Gen. James Donovan and Mike Dunn,
has produced some of the highest grade
gold ore ever mined in southern Ne
vada. The highly silicious gold ore
found near the surface having gradu-
ally changed into lead-silver ores at
the lower workings, was the cause, no
doubt, of the suspension of operations
A leasing bond has been granted e. H.
Kennard.
The busiest place in the Gold noun
tain district at present is Dunnville,
twelve miles west of Bonnie Clare sta
ton. Quite a town has sprung up here
and Mike Dunn says he will have
postoffice.
The Randolph is said to have opened
six feet of shipping ore last week.
All men were laid off, but told to re-
main, as work would be resumed SHORT
ly. A new strike was made by f.
Faulkner on his claims about three
miles from Dunnville, nearly every
piece showed free gold. and all panned
nice, coarse gold.

ESCONDlDO MINE SHOWS
IMPROVEMENT IN DEPTH
DISTRICT CONTINUES STEADILY
WITHOUT EXCITEMENT
Development company's Report for
August Shows Financial and Physl-
cal Strength-Mineral Re-
sources Valuable

ESCONDIDO. Sept. 6.-In this dis
trict work goes on steadily with no
excitement. All properties that have
been mentioned as being on the work.
ing list are still here and something
over 1000 feet of new development
work has been done this season.
The Escondido Mine Development
company's Asmus mine is showing a
remarkable Improvement with depth
and sinking in the new shaft will be
continued.
Tne Escondido district is certainly a
wonderful one and its people are
among the most progressive. Four
years ago on September 8 they wiped
out their puIlic debt by assessing
themselves 43 per cent of their total
assessed franchise, and today the dis
trict has not a dollar of public debt.
The event will be celebrated this year.
Excursions will be run to the city,
where displays of minerals and agri-
cultural products will be exhibited.
Notwithstanding the hard times over
the country the people of this district
have banded themselves together and
organized the Escondido Mine Devel-
opment company, and through this
medium are fast developing and prov
ing of great value their mineral re-
sources. Tor the past three months
there has not been day but that out
side mining men have been here look
ing over the camp, and several or
them have become interested. The gem
eral managers August report is now
out, and shows the company in re-
markably fine condition, physically
and financially.

Railroads Buid Rapidly About Nina
in Anticipation Of Big Mining Boom

N OLDFIELD, Sept. 6.-J. Holman
VT Buck, the only man in Nevada
" who has the nerve to run three
different papers in as many communi-
ties, is in Goldfield talking up the
merits of Bodie, Hawthorne and Nina.
With reference to the latter town,
he is very enthusiastic over the out
look through the construction of the
Hazen-Los Angeles line. He says
that the road is being built at phe-
nomenal speed out of the canyon in
the south, and that forty-two miles
of the line are open for passenger
traffic. The narrow gauge road to
Keeler will soon be in the hands or
construction forces and changed to
broad gauge. The Southern Pacific
expects to have the new line in active
operation by the first of the year.
Nina will be the central point for the
engineers, and the yards are now being
cleared in anticipation of the arrival
of immense quantities of supplies. In
a few days an additional freight train
will be added to the schedule for the
sole purpose of bringing in material
from the north. Five stalls will be
added to the roundhouse.
Eight miles east of Nina there is
considerable excitement over the ap-
pearance of oil Indications, and sew
eral firms are drilling in the oil sands
and shale belt that extends over an

GLADSTONE MINE SHIPS
SIX CARLOADS OF ORE
SIXTY MEN ARE EMPLOYED IN
WORKINGS
Under New Management the Property
Promises to Eclipse Its Former
Record-Was Located in
Early Sixties

PRESCOTT, Sept. 6.-Since August
26 six carloads of ore have been
shipped from the Gladstone to the Ell
Paso smelters. Sixty miners are now
employed in the mine, which promises
to eclipse it's former record as pro-
ducer under the management of "a. c..
Massey and George Flammer, who re-
Gently started to exploit it under lease.
Sinking in the shaft will be resumed
soon by Massey and Flammer. They
intend to carry 1t down another 100
feet and open the vein from that point
by drifts. The shaft is now 1000 feet
deep. The drifts from the 1ooo-foot
station are being pushed ahead with
good ore showing in both faces. Some
of the upper levels are also being
pushed along the vein, but the major
ity of the miners employed are work
ing in the slopes, which are yielding
as we'll as anticipated.
The Gladstone mine joins the Nc
Cabe find on the west, and has been
operated in connection with the latter
several years Considered as one mine,
the Gladstone-M was the largest
gold producer in the county in 1907.
Operations in it ceased with the clos
ing of the plant of the Arizona Smelt-
ing company at Humboldt last fall.
The product of the mine is a sui
phide, rich in gold. 1t is hauled by
wagon to Huron, where it is loaded
on the cars for shipment.
The mine was discovered in the lat
ter COS by Frank McCabe, when the
Big Bug district was yet infested with
hostile Apaches. He realized its great
possibilities and held it many years
before disposing of his interests in 1t
and the McCabe mine, both of which
are now the property of the Ideal Min
ing company.

DELAWARE DISTRICT
GOES TO THE FRONT
TO BE PLACED ON SHIPPING
BASIS IMMEDIATELY
After Years of Desuitory Prospecting
the Country Attracts Systematic
Workers Who Bring Riches
Out of Chaos

CARSON CITY, Sept. 6.-The Della
ware district is coming to the front in
manner that is sure to place it well
in the lead among the new camps of
Nevada before very long. While the
country has been prospected in de-
sultory way for a long time, it was
only recently that work started in
systematic manner and the result of
this work has been to place the dis
trict on a shipping basis at once.
James Sollenberger has just received
returns from a test shipment of 300
pounds of ore sent to the Salt Lake
smelters. The sample was taken clear
across a ledge six feet wide. without
sorting. The returns from the reduc-
ton works show that the ore has
value of $5635 per ton. of which SIG is
gold. 1t also carries copper to the eX-
tent OF 16 per cent and three ounces OF
silver. This valuation is on the basis
of copper at 1919 cents.
The ore was taken from the Two
Brothers group. Work will start imme-
diately on the claims and a shipment
will be made early next month. Ne
gotiations are under way with the
railroads and smelters looking to more
favorable rates, and it is thought that
arrangements can be made whereby
the ore can be shipped at good profit.
On the Trapper group several leasers
are working. On the lease of Jackson
and Duncan high grade ore is being
sacked from a small stringer in the
big ledge and a shipment will be made
in short time.
The district is heavily mineralized
and the ledges are strong and well
defined. On the Two Brothers group
seven distinct lodges can be traced
for over 800 feet, and good values are
obtained throughout their entire length.
Some of the ore shows free gold in
the azurite, a combination seldom seen.
The presence of such a large percent
age of copper in the ore leads those in
the district to think that ore of a
greater value will be found as depth
is attained. 1t is also regarded as an
indication of the permanency of the
| lodges in the district.
Already considerable capital is in
terested in the district and work will
be started at once on several deep
shafts. 1t is freely predicted that be-
fore winter the Delaware district will
be an important shipper Several more
sets of leasers are planning to begin
work soon
A petition is being circulated and will
be presented to the county commits
sioners asking them to repair the road
leading from Brunswick canyon to the
mines. The work can be done for about
$500, and considering the advantages to
be gained the appropriation should be
made without any hesitation. 1t will

LONDON SYNDICATE BUYS
INTEREST IN RoRAx MINES

A London syndicate has taken an
interest in San Bernardino horax de-
posits and will develop the product
on a huge scale and in competition to
the borax trust.
The London syndicate has taken
over the Colmanite Consolidated group
of borax claims in the Belleville min
ing district. 1t is understood that the
foreign capitalists have paid from
$50 900 to $65,000 for the interest. and in
addition the original owners are to re-
ceive stock in the new concern to the
value of 5000 pounds sterling.
w. b. Wainwright of the Palm
Borax company is the selling agent,
and he will have charge of the devel-
opment for the new owners as general
manager. The London syndicate was
formed by the United African Explo-
rations. limited. a concern which has
large interests in the United States
and Africa. The syndicate will pro-
vide about 100000 as a working capital
to begin with.

tance from Llanos station
A special meeting of the stockholders
has been called for September Il IN
Tucson to consider a proposition Tor

and shows 10000 tons of ore blocked
out, and the EI Trio has also been de-
yeloped to the depth of 700 feet and
shows 10000 tons of ore blocked out
and owns 90, 900 acres of land contain

NJ EWS which comes from Wicken-
burg of the sale Of the old Vul-
~ ture mine to a syndicate of Bos-
ton people for half million dollars has
revived the old tales of the halcyon
days of that great bonanza. The Vul-
ture has produced many millions of
dollars. 1t is known that $4,000, 900 has
been taken out, besides much more that
was never placed on record. There are
now thousands of tons of ore in sight,
but the old timers aver that the rich
est lead of all is cut off from the out.
side world by many tons Of dirt and
rocks.
The date of the great cave-in which
hid the rich ore from the outside
world has never been forgotten. Near
a score of men were entombed but
after more than twentyfour hours of
unceasing labor they dug their way
into another drift and escaped to free
dom my a stope. Another cavern
closed this way of access to the treas
ure.
The Vulture, though it produced
many millions of dollars, was always
worked very cheaply. The various own
ers did not timber the underworkings
as they should and miners knew them
to be dangerous places to work. But
there are always men reckless enough
to work anywhere If they are well PAID

MINES, MINING AND PROSPECTS in GREAT SOUTHERN REGION
PR0SPECT0RS Rush
TO BIG SPRINGS IN
REMOTE NYE COUNTY

GOLDFIELD. sept. 6.-Phonolite and
Duluth have attracted the attention OF
mining men and prospectors for over
a year past. II was predicted at the
time of the discovery that the camp
would turn out to be another Cripple
arrivals looked like the phonolite in
Colorado's big gold camp. The district
is in the northwest corner OF
Nye county, away from the railways
and very little ore has been shipped
from the camp.
A. ]. Hawks, manager of the Mo-
hawk-D Duluth Mining company says;
ION this property where probably
the greatest amount of work has been
done there is wide body of gold
bearing rock at depth of 100Afeet that
assays all the way from $40 to $25 a
ton 1t is not the grade of ore that
will bear shipping under present con-
ditions. AT Big Spring, five miles south
OF Phonolite, there is quite a rush and
ore is already being piled up for ship
ment."

TWO FEET OF SOFT TALC
SHOWS IN, LoGLAND LEASE
Every Pound of Tale Is Sacked as
Broken Down-Whsky Barrel
Cyanide Plant Works
Successfully

RHYOLITE, New. Sept. 6.-Jack
Logland's lease on the Bullfrog Ma
tional bank is looking better than ever
this week. The face of the south drift,
the most southerly point in the lease
WORKINGS, shows nearly two feet of soft
tale, similar to that of the Shoshone.
Every pound of the tale is being sacked
as broken down, and Jack is filling
about twenty large sacks a day. He
is rapidly getting together another ship
ment.
The first cleanup from Logland's
whisky barrel cyanide plant was mace
the latter part of last week. The re-
suits are entirely satisfactory. one
ton of screenings was treated, and the
little gold brick weighed one and
seVenth-tenths ounces, which means
that the plant is having values of $34
a ton. While with only four barrels
in commission. the amount of ore ham
died is necessarily small, the saving
shown is good, and if Jack covers the
west side of Ladd mountain with
whisky barrels, as he has threatened
to do. the scheme will work out.
The cost of cyanide, lime and zint
shavings, says Logland, is only 75
cents a ton.
During the past week Stewart & Nc
Vicar leasing on Bullfrog Mining, t1llec
fifty sacks with high grade ore, anc
they are sacking daily. The south drifi
from the winze continues to expose the
rich streaks. Next week they will star
drift from the tunnel level and dupli
cate the work done since the connec
ton was made. This will afford consid
cradle stopping ground, from which tn
| leasers expect to take out lot o
| good ore.
| During the week the Sixty-Six leaser
have been occupied in sacking tn
screened ore in the bins
Fred Moesser has taken lease ol
the old dump at the original shaft ol
the Bullfrog Mining company's estate
By screening he has saved about thirt,
tons, and is treating the ore at the Ray
mond Sparling plant, close by.

Sale of Noted Vulture Mine Recalls
Cavern Which Closed Treasure Lead

for it, and the real necessity of using
timbers was never brought home to the
owners.
Vast rooms were followed out under
ground. In many places the roofs of
these rooms were ready to fall. One
day a roof did fall, and fell so as to
block up that part of the mine in
which fabulously rich rock had been
found a short while before. About
twenty men were imprisoned.
No attempt has ever been made to
uncover it. 1t was obviously impossible
to tunnel through the rock which caved
in, as it was broken up and cracked
until it could no more be tunneled than
sand. To drift around required more
money than the owners cared to spend.

covered in the Wickenburg section
awaits the coming OF man.
