Reported Deal

One of the biggest mining deals con
summated in the Bullfrog district since
October, 1907, has just been made. A
S. 5000 cash payment has been made, and
the transaction is practically closed, but
there are a few little details yet to look
after, and for this reason the Miner
cannot be as explicit as it would like
to be.
1t can be said, however, that ii. n.
Nichols and associates of Denver are
the purchasers of a valuable mining
estate in the northern, or Pioneer, sec
ton of the Bullfrog district. The
ground adjoins the Bullfrog Pioneer,
which is just now the Nevada sensa-
ton.
Mr.. Nichols is one of the most sue
cessful mining and smelling men in the
west. and we are advised that asso-
ciated with him are men of almost un-
limited capital.
1t is the purpose of the new owners
to start operations at once upon their
new possessions, which are also the first
possessions of these capitalist in this
camp.
The deal, conidering the character
and financial ability of Mr.. Nichols and
his associates, as well as the valuable
character of the ground taken over,
means much to the Bullfrog. 1t means,
in fact. the immediate employment OF a
new crew of miners and the almost GER
tainty of opening up a new producer OF
gold in camp.

BRUNSWICK CONSOLIDATED SOLD

BRUNSWICK CONSOLIDATED SOLD
One of the largest mining deals re-
corded in this section in many years
past was contaminated here several
DAYS ago when the interests of Robert
Looan in the Brunswick Consolidated
Mining property, possibly more famil-
iarly known as the Yerington-Logan
propertv. situated in the Brunswick
canyon to the east of this city was sold
to eastern capitalists for a cash con-
sideration of $4,000 and the new peo-
pie are now in control.
The Brunswick Consolidated company
owns a large area of copper bearing
ground in the Brunswick district and is
probably one of the most valuable cop
per holdings in the state of Nevada
For a number of years past develop
ment work has been going on there and
there is an unlimited amount of the cop
per bearing ore awaiting the smelter.
The company has been working on the
latter proposition for the past couple Of
years and as a result of a trip to Boston
nv the president of the company, Mr..
James A. Yerington, the announcement
has been made that the desired capital
has been secured for the erection OF a
lOO-ton smelter and MI. Yerington is
daily expected to arrive here to AXE
ND the preliminary work for its con-
struction.

SEVEN U DEAL

The Seven Troughs News says:
Ed Moran of Vernon returned to the
district on Wednesday where he closed
what is believed to have been the larg-
est deal contaminated for several
months. For a consideration said to be
a quarter of a million dollars the Gold
Prize Mining company was sold to ".
j.. Smith and associates of San Fran
cisco. Mr.. Smith is a well known Ne
vada mining man and one of the officers
in the Rawhide Coalition company.
The Gold Prize Mining company owns
four claims in the heart of the district.
The property adjoins the Fairview on
the west. The company was formerly
controlled by Ed Moran, Frank Emory.
c. w. Miles, Hugh Trenholm and G. E.
Richards and these gentlemen still hold
interest in the company.
While but little work has been do..e
the property the surface indications
were such as to convince Mr.. Smith that
work is all that is necessary to produce
a mine. In trenching, a 50-foot ledge
was uncovered that carries values
it's entire width and that contains
stringers of high grade, The
first work proposed to be done by the
new management will be the driving Of
a tunnel to cut this ledge at depth.
When this is completed and the dip Of
the vein determined, machinery will be
installed and a shaft put down 300 feet.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Smith to place
the mine on a paying basis as rapi'i'J
as possible, and only enough stock viii
be disposed of to carry on development.

Capricorn Ships

A twenty-ton shipment win be made
from Captain Miners lease on the
Caprieorn as soon as silver shows an up
ward tendency. The last shipment was
of ore that averaged $167 to the ton.
What is now ready to be sent out Will,
it is expected, go better than that. IL
is morally certain that it Will exceed
$3.50 to the tor.
There is a large quantity of low
grade ore on the dump on the Capricorn
which awaits only the reduction to a
reasonable figure of the extortionately
high transportation and smelter
charges.

Bonanza Mountain Extension

A force of men under the direction OF
Postmaster Joe Moore was put to work
this week on the ground of the Bonanza
Mountain Extension Mining. company,
on Bonanza mountain, adjoining on the
east the valuable estate of the Bonanza
Mountain Mining company. Primarily
the work is intenden for assessment
purposes. but Mr.. Moore is doing sur
face prospect work in such a manner as
may lead to the opening up OF a pody
of ore, in which event work Will be eon-
tinued on the property. Assay values
of $11 in gold to the ton have been ob-
tanned heretofore from roeg in the shaft,
which is quite shallow. There is a
basalt dyke running through the ground
and Mr.. Moore is very anxious to pene-
trate it.

Yankee Girl

Assessment work is being done ON the
Yankee Girl property, which attracts
the attention of most persons arriving
or leaving Rhyolite, because of its near.
ness to the depot of the Tonopah &
Tidewater railroad depot. There is nc
doubt in the minds of the officers of
the company owning these claims that
here will be found the ledge extending
through the National Bank property,
wherein such high grade ore has been
found by Jack Logland and Stewart
and McVickar.
Soon after the opening of the New
Year it is expected that funds will be
forthcoming to continue the develop
ment work on the Yankee Girl, on
which a considerable sum of money has
already been expended. A fine hoist
and other equipment have been pro
vided, and the outlay thus far made
seems amply justified by the indications,
On the north side of the dump there APP
pears to be ore which, if a mill were
close at hand, could be treated at a
fair profit. With a reasonable depth at.
tanned, mining men believe highly graf
flying results will be found.
Cyanide for Bullfrog
Cyaniding can be successfully used
in the treatment of ores taken out of
the Bullfrog Diamond property on the
east side of Ladd mountain. This has
been demonstrated on the Miller and
Stephens lease, where an experimental,
cyanide plant has been in operation fol
several weeks, long enough to show the
susceptibility of the ore to be found il
such generous quantities in this grea!
upheaval of mother earth, so termed hy
biologists.
There are several hundreds of tons on
the dump and in their lateral workings
Messrs. Miller and Stephens haze a
large quantity of ore amenable to the
~ ohA' Piottoos vi tohiot3 Lht-I =
some refractory ore, a large quantity Of
it, and this will be shipped when salts
factory arrangements can be made with
a mill or smelter.
The great drawback at present is lack
of water, which now must be carried by
burros. But this hardship can be over
come by the expenditurde of a compare
lively reasonable sum, as connection
may be made with one of the pipe lines
There seems to be little doubt that
others well be encouraged to take
leases on this east mountain side by the
fact that the ore to be found at suef
easy depths from the surface can b.
cheaply treated and with such a rela
lively high percentage of extraction OF
values

She Was Welcome to the Rest.
AS several travellers got into che sta
ton bus one of the men noticed that
young woman had grip exactly like
his, but that it was placed with the
rest of the baggage on top. Thinking
there might be some mistake made, he
kept his inside and placed it at his
feet. He was soon engrossed with his
paper and did not notice the young
woman reach over and draw the grip
close to her side. He waited until she
was occupied with a book and then
pulled the grip to its former position,
the rest Of the travellers looking on
with amused expressions.
In turning over leaf she looked
down and suddenly became aware of
the removal of the grip. With some
force in her voice and manner, she
said, THAT is miner and jerked it
back close to her feet.

STARTING IN LIFE.

No young man who desires to
succeed in business has any time
to lose in shuffiing about in exper-
mental clerkships; and after fin
ishing his school education the
sooner that he makes his choice
of the business for life and sets
himself at work to learn and be-
come successfully established the
better. No young man can AZ
ford to make a mistake i'll his
choice of an occupation. The
first choice should be the true one.
For this reason we should say to
a young man in regardsto routine
clerkship. by no means accept a
place of that kind, not even II the
salary is large; it may seem large
at first, but there can he no com
peasation to q young man for the
loss OF time. Indeed, we are OF
the opinion that q young man
had better work for nothing or
even pay for the privilege OF
going into some good business
establishment where he can be
associated with keen business
men, than to take an ordinary
clerkship at any price.
