HELLER |NSPECTS THE
BLUESTONE

M. !. Heller, part owner of one OF
Yerington's great mines, the Bluestone,
was an arrival in camp the first of the
week and remained several days on a
tour of inspection. The major portion
of Mr.. Hellers time was consumed IN
an examination of developments made
at the Bluestone since his last visit. The
remainder was spent surveying the dis
trict's showing generally.
Mr. Heller is as uncommunicative as
ever. He realizes that he has one of
the greatest copper properties IN the
world and is half inclined to believe it is
the greatest. To interview him is TO
learn little which might interest the
public, though now and then he unin-
tentionally drops remark which might
be taken to be of general concern.
The eminent gentleman could not
state just when operations would be re-
sumed, but inferred that at no distant
date the wheels of industry would start.
Mr.. Heller thoroughly examined the
electrolytic process which is being ex-
rerimented upon at the mine The re-
suits so far as known remain with him
and those associated with him in the
treatment of the ore.
1t would not be true for the Times to
state that the Bluestone will soon start
up as positive fact. But it is willing
to venture the guess that before long the
mine will be producing abundantly
This conclusion is arrived at after watch
terested.
One rumor has it that the main shaft
is to be sunk to the l000-foot level.
This work is planned to still further
open up and add to the ore already in
sight estimated at value of $40, 900, 900.

Activity In the Yerington District
GOOD STRIKE AT BLACK
MOUNTAIN

Another section of country which
draws upon Yerington for its supplies is
coming rapidly to the front. By the
time spring fairly opens activity prom
ises to reach the proportions of boom.
The latest strike in that locality is re-
ported on the Bell Boy group of claims
owned by Yerington interests, among
the owners being Ross Thompson, Frank
Bugbee, d. w. Mckenzie, Douglas Law
son and others. At the bottom of the
l0-foot shaft the values show splendid
increase from those reported on the sur
face, the last returns running SIP in
gold and 10 per cent copper.
Black Mountain is destined to make
good. The surface showings are un-
questionably among the very best in the
State. The discoveries of last fall were
the cause of attracting considerable at
tenton to the district. However, the
panic caused a cessation of operations.
Now that money is loosening up, the
district may be looked upon to assert its
Importance as producer.
The papers of incorporation of the
Northern Lights Copper and Gold Min
ing company have been filed with the
Secretary of State. Within a few DAYS
stock i'll the company will be put upon
the market. 1t promises to find ready
sale, as the ground is considered one of
the premier holdings of the district.

The following news item, bearing a
Salt Lake City date, has appeared in a
number of the leading dailies:
A syndicate of Salt Lake mining men
who are interested in the Yerington
(Nev.) district are considering the mat
ter of building smelter in that camp.
They say ore can be smelted as cheaply
there as anywhere in the country; that
the district produces everything except
ing fuel, and it, they declare, can be OBJ
tanned at low cost. The principal pro-
ducing mine at Yerington at the present
time is the Nevada Douglas, and this
company has recently marketed ore in
Salt Lake which yielded better than
$1,000 a car on these low copper prices.
The last car sampled showed 20.82 per
cent copper and 10 per cent iron. The
Bluestone mine, owned by Captain De-
Lamar, is to be equipped with a new

mill, magnetic concentration having
proved success there, while the Mason
Valley and the Western Nevada are
ready to produce whenever the necessary
facilities are available on the ground.
S. S. AREN'T, superintendent OF the Ne
vada- Douglas, says the camp of Yering-
ton has suffered but little from the
money panic; that all of the principal
mines in the camp are being operated,
and that the bank there has never ceased
paying currency to customers over its
counter when called for. Compared to
other camps in Nevada, Mr.. AREN'T be
believes Yerington to have distinct adj
vantage.

Enjoyable Time

The members of the Yerington Book
club entertained a number of invited
guests at Spangler ball Tuesday evening
last. The ladies of the club, for its
membership is composed exclusively of
the fair sex, had made great prepare
tons for the event which helped to
make the evening such pleasant sue
cess. The hall was beautifully and
painstakingly decorated which aided in
lending beauty to the scene In the
neighborhood of sixty persons were
present. Those taking part in the pro-
gram were:
Mesdames F. o. Stickney, c. d. Nc
Donald, w. Slosson, J. P. Snyder, A. A.
Arends, Alex Murchie, Miss NJ. f..

Following the program a lunch was
spread which was thoroughly enjoyed
The club will hold another open meeting
at some future date, which will be looked
forward to with interest.

Force Increased

The force of miners at the Mcconnell
was considerably augmented this week,
seventeen additional miners having been
put to work. From this time on work
will proceed with vim outclassing all
previous efforts.
1t is undoubtedly due to the recent
striking of ore in the company's shaft at
depth of 240 feet, that caused the COM
pany to add to its working force. The
result will be the development of the ore
body in the quickest possible time.

II Is strange how estimates differ as
TO the age Of the Niagara falls. Geolo-
gists have studied the question for
years but they do not agree In their
conclusions. The old notion was that

river about $4,000 years ago Later
investigation reduced this estimate TO
10000 years, wonderful difference.
Then famous geologist made II $1,000
