there are a number of others which
will soon be opened, and during the
winter and the next spring the entire
district will be thoroughly prospect
ed and the lodges laid bare.
Five companies are either now or
ganized or are in progress of organi-
zation in the east to develop the dis
trict. 1t is represented that the de-
velopment of the district will cost
money, as it is low grade camp, and
shafts must be sunk to reasonable
depth to get the values and the ore
bodies of extent. The camp is not
being exploited as a high grade prop
osition at all, and yet we learn that
mining experts who have carefully
gone over the ground state it as their
belief that with depth, bodies of ore
as rich as anything which was ever
found in the Mohawk at Goldfleld
will be found where the cross lodges
encounter the main lateral veins.
1t may be even, that Gold Reef will
have even better railway service than
that afforded by the Tonopah and
Goldfield, which is but about three
or four miles away. The Clarke en-
gineers have made survey for the
projected new line of that concern
which almost cuts the townsite. Gold

the vein. Thirteen men of the Tono-
pah and Goldfield engineering and
construction force are developing
this property.
Clear across the Gold Reef district
from east to west, the writer crossed
series of porphyry and quartz
dykes, running north and south, and
with quite a number of cross lodges
The dykes are well defined, and with
a pick it was little trouble to find
specimens showing free gold 'or iron
sulphides which should be rich in
gold content. Going back toward the
north boundary of the district its
volcanic origin is plainly visible, for
there are beds of decomposed lava,
and hills of solid lava and rock,
which at some period in the history
of the earth's formation have been
forced upward by some great internal
eruption. Certain it is that the whole
territory is highly mineralized, traces
of iron, copper, silver and gold
abundant.

Returned From Wales

Rev. John R. Hughes of New Salem
is in the city hob-nobbing with
friends. Mr.. Hughes has only recent.
ly returned from his visit to the old
home in Wales. He left Bismarck
the latter part of November and made
his trip across on the Cedric, the
voyage being a pleasant one.
The first week in Wales was an un
pleasant one for him so far as the
weather was concerned, cold and
rainy. The time passed all too quick
ly and he, was obliged to come back
without seeing a number of persons
whom he wanted very much to meet
1t has been twenty years since he
left the old home and he was made
doubly welcome by his oldtime friends
who crowded the church to hear him
preach. He delivered twelve sermons
in all and most of them in his native
tongue. which he had practically
abandoned.
The return voyage was made in the
Celtic and but one stormy day was
experienced. He arrived home in the
pink of health and all his friends will
be glad to see him.

Aesthetic Quarters

If there is one man in town who,
better than any other, delights in
surroundings congenial and friends
social, the palm must go to w. E.
Butler and why shouldn't he delight
in the artistic when the artistic side
of his nature is so strong.
This characteristic in him is pre-
dominant as a visit to his studio
the finest in this western country
will show. But it is not with the stud
10 itself this item has to deal, but a
step beyond, to the home life Of the
man, and behold. a "den", for thus
it may be termed. However, it is not
in the least suggestive of the thought
the term implies, but on the other
hand, it is room not overly large,
but, where, with comfort, a mali doz-
en- friends might gather of an even
ing and pleasantly pass a few hours
Hardwood floor, rug covering the
most Of it, a weathered oak stand or
center table, supporting a few choice
literary gems of the best authors
Occupying nearly one side of the
room is one of the finest of daven-
ports, cushion green and frame to
match the stand. Over this piece OF
luxuriousness the family groups, in
portraits, hang upon the wall. Other
pictures and portraits adorn the walls
and other pieces of furniture match
those mentioned. But the point OF
comfort in which the proprietor OF
the den takes greatest pride and ease
| is a Karpen rocker in leather and
this is luxury, indeed. Nothing in the
furnishing line excels it.
Everything speaks of comfort and
the den will, no doubt, Danish al
lacare from the mind of it's owner
whenever he seeks its shelter
What asks he more than mortal ken
This Butler artist in his den?
Oh, may the power that blessed this
cuss @
Be pleased to do as much for us.
