.STURGES WILL
RULE COMSTOCK

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, April il,
by the election OF George s.
Sturges and Frederick Swan to tire
directorate of the Ophir. Consoli lat
ed Virginia and Mexican Mining CON-
pany. Edward B. Sturges, one of the
coal barons of Pennsylvania prac-
ticaily became director in all three
OF these Comstock mines.
Edward s. Sturges Is the SON or
George B. Sturges, and Frederick
Swan has been his representative ~
the coast. Sturges' interest in the
Ccmstocks is very large and dates
lack for twenty-five years. His busI-
ness in the east is so large. he Sc Il,
that he was unable to give the C ,in-
stocks his personal attention. His
son has been investigating the three
above mentioned properties for owe.
q year.
In mining circles the election OF
young Sturges and Swan is locke
upon as tantamount to the control ~
these mines by the coal king. 1t is.
also stated that it means the begin
ming of more active development Of
the mines. Sturges is quoted as say.
ing that he thought there had not
been sufficient energy displayed in
the management of the mines and
that they should have been put on
a paying basis long ago.
The Sturges idea of development
is to be followed out in the new mar
agement and opportunity is to be
given him of obtaining fuller control
of the mines IL he so desires.

JUMBO CLAIMS
SELL FOR $4,000

A big deal was closed at Jumbo
when the New Era changed hands,
A. Y. Warner, Charles Brannon and
j. W. Campbell selling the group OF
claims for $4,000 to ]. Ellis ana
associates of Rawhide. The deal was
cash one and the transfer of the
property was made at once.
The New Era is close-in at the
camp. and is near the Pandora prop
erty, which adjoins the Barge. where
the rich strike was made. The deal
is one of the biggest that has gone
through at the camp. The Rawhide
people expect to be In the camp with
in several days and begin active work
on the property, putting on hoists,
etc. They will develop it with all
possible speed.
Several other deals of a consider
able magnitude are now pending and
in number OF them Carson people
are interested. 1t will be several
days, however, before they will come
to focus.
Two two-story buildings are now
in the course of construction at the
camp, there are three saloons, res
taurants, boarding and rooming
houses and many otheer businesses.
Thousands of feet flumber are go
ing into the camp every day. Thee
is no doubt or question about Jumb ),
it is booming and the properties there
look better every day.
The strike on the Van Etten lease
gets better daily. Ore from the
claims give high paintings. The leas-
ers are now doubling their efforts in
pushing the work and expect the
ledge to widen and get better with
depth. Carson News.

that Rawhide is going to be great

To tell the truth, said Mr.. Nat

that everybody was SO busy that no
one had time to tell me anything or
toy show me anything. But | met
A. H. Douglass. an oId-time mining
man, and who is the manager Of the
Rawhide Wonder King Combination
Leasing and Mining company. He
did not tell me much, but asked me
to 90 with him and look at some prop
critics. I went with him out to the
Royal Mines company's groups and
then began to see what had come
to look for.
My inspection has been confine |
thus far toIthe western district, my
examination of other properties hay-
ing been only superficial. But have
seen enough tp know that you are
going to have a great camp here, for
there is everything In its favor, the
principal thing being the ore /
spent all one day on the Royal Tiger,
Bushwhacker and the Wonder King,
and the showings are marvellous, paIi-
nings being found everywhere. the
paintings being very coarse. This was
especially so on the Wonder King,
where the values exist in dacite
dixie.
For the work that has been
done, the showings are the more
wonderful There IS such a strong
dixie formation, which indicates nat
uraIly, strength and permanency, that
good assurance is given to scientific
and practical men. This is bound
to make a good camp. and / think
it will develop into a milling camp
