NEVADA BANKER
ON A NEW CAMP
F. r. GunnelI Says Seven
TroughS Is Big-TeIlS OF
Bullion Making.

F. r. Gunnell, an old Salt Laker,
who is cashier of the First National
bank of LovelOck, New, was in the
city yesterday on his way into Idaho,
where he is going to look after mat
tiers at a big sheep ranch which he
owns in the state on the north.
Mr.. Gunnell talks most enthusiast
tically of mining conditions in his sec
ton of the state, and declares that the
Seven Troughs country, particularly,
is going to make a slashing fine record
during the present year. 1t is Mr.
GunnelPs bank that looks after the
picture" ore that is being sent to
Lovelock by the Seven Troughs COM
pany and it is Mr.. Gunnell that ships
and sells the bullion that is now being
turned out by an assayer in Lovelock,
who has facilities for handling from
100 to 200 pounds of the ore per day.
From the first run of fifty-six
pounds of Ore" said Mr.. Gunnell, 1--WE
shipped a brick to the mint that
brought us back $3.50 worth of 500
gold pieces. We have since marketed
about So, 900 worth more, and we are
receiving regularly from the mine
more ore than the assayer, with his
small outfit, can handle. He is really
not equipped just as he ought to be for
tie work, and consequently does not
get through as much ore as he might
under different conditions. The ore so
far handled has produced about $40
per pound in gold. and 1 want to tell
you that you don't see such ore as
that every day.
Il understand that just as soon as
the mill at the kindergarten compa-
ny's property is built retorts for the
handling of such rich ore as that now
coming to us from the Seven Troughs
will be included in the equipment and
that the company viii then treat a
great deal more than is now possible.
AS it is, the company can meet all its
operating expenses and pile up a sur
plus besides, if it cares to. The Seven
Froughs. is big mine, and there are

MAKING A LEAD MINE
CLOSE TO ELY, NEVADA

Having finished the assessment work
on the September claim, near Lane
City, upon which a fine showing of
silver-lead ore was discovered last
week, the miners came to town last
night, bringing with them over fifty
pounds of ore. which they claim rep
resents a fair average of a two-foot
ledge, at a depth of twenty feet. says
the Ely Mining EXpositOr.
Assays taken from the groupings of
the ledge last week showed that the
ore on the surface carries sixteen
ounces of silver, 81 per cent lead and
81 in gold.
i The assays made of the ore taken
from the bottom of the shaft yesterday
showed that there has been a marked
Improvement in the grade of the ore,
it yielding returns of so per cent lead,
forty to eighty ounces silver and "a in
gold.
With such a fine showing at a depth
of twenty feet, the owners of the Sep
TENDER are confident that they have
the makings of a good mine and will
shortly begin active operations in the
development of it, and take out ore
enough in the meantime to pay for the
works
The property is owned by DR.. r. H
Richardson and D. S. Dickerson.

CACTUS MAKING COPPER
FOR 6 CENTS A POUND

While the figures showing TO a frac-
ton of a cent what it has cost the
Newhouse Mines & SHELTERS corpora
ton TO produce copper for the past
month have not yet been made up, it
is known that the cost will not eX-
coed &c a pound. The net amount of
copper produced for the month was
1,03S, 600 pounds.
After allowing 112c per pound for re-
filming and marketing, say at 1870 per
pound, the company would make a net
profit of $62, $50 for the month, or bet
ter than $4,000 a day. And this is
being done on a basis of mine opera
ton that is nothing more than a cam
paign of development and with the
mill operating on a modest tonnage of
lOw-grade ore with one shift. The bulk
of the output, therefore, was in high
grade ore that was shipped direct to
the Garfield smelter Of the American
company.
The operations of the Newhouse
company will be worth watching after
the red metal market steadies down at
15c or better and the demand is
brought back to normal. because the
mine is said to be growing bigger and
richer with every foot of depth at
tanned and the high-grade ore re-
serves are constantly being added to
in an almost bewildering fashion.

ANOTHER UTAH CROWD
GETS INTO GOLD CIRCLE

Frank Jardine, the well-known eX-
pert of Utah, was at Gold Circle this
week representing the George F.
Busch interests, and secured a bond on
three of the most promising groups in
the Gold Circle district, which are
known as the Gold Crown and Gilt
lodes, owned by Marking & Schein,
and the Sleeping Beauty group, owned
by Mears & Barker, says the Battle
Mountain Herald. Negotiations for the
properties were entered into some
weeks ago. Mr.. Busch visited the dis
trict personally and was much en-
Unused over what he saw. After re-
turning to Utah he sent Mr.. Jardine
back to confirm his opinion and close
the deals.
The Busch interests are extensively
represented throughout Utah, and it
is believed that their advent into
Gold Circle augurs much good for this
camp. According to. the terms of the
bond a large amount of development
work is to be done on the properties
and substantial cash payments made.
The commencement of the work is not
to be deferred longer than is neces-
sary to get tools and supplies on the
ground, and it is expected that consid-
cradle progress will be made during
the winter
On the Hamburger property shaft
house is being erected, and when COM

both are in good ore.

Mines and Mining Stocks

John NJ. Daugherty of Omaha is made
a party defendant to the suit because
of a deed to plaintiffs interests in the
property, which he holds in trust TO
secure the payment of certain sums OF
money owing TO the John A. Creighton
estate. and because Daugherty de-
clined TO bring the action for Treweek
and Burch.
The complaint alleges that the value
of the ore claimed to have been mined
and sold is $4,000 and that as they
own three-fourths, undivided. in the
claims, they are entitled to three
fourths of the money which 1t sold
for. The defendant company owns
the remaining one-fourth interest in
the ground which has been opened
through the Alliance tunnel more than
1000 feet from its mouth.
President David Keith and General
Manager Thomas Kearns of the de-
PENDANT company are both out Of the
city, so no statement could be had
from them. When seen during the
afternoon Colonel Nicholas Treweek
said:
1.-The complaint speaks for itself. l

avoid bringing this suit, but the King
management has strenuously refused
to permit me TO make an examination
of the underground workings or allow
me to take any survey. In order
to protect myself there was no other
way than to take the matter into
court
There is no mention of apex rights
in the complaint, the allegation being
made in legal phraSeOlOgy that the ore
has been taken out and sold, and that,
as the defendants own three-fourths
of he he

the equity division of the court, and
William c. Hall, who was chief attor-
ney in the big suit of James McGregor

NEW DEGREES NEEDED.
Another Plea for More Fitting Titles
for Eminent Citizens.

The universities have firmly eStab-
lished the custom of formally recog-
nzing the civic worth. public spirit, or
military ability. of prominent men. In
republic where there are no titles,
and few honors conferred by the state,
the custom is good and should prevail
The Harvard and Yale lists Of honor
airy degrees this year are discreetly
chosen William Vaughan Moody, for
instance has been called the foremost
living American poet, and there is
reason for comforting upon him the
degree of doctor of literature. The
honors bestowed upon DR.. Lusk. DIR.
Manager, Senior Nebuco. and most Of
the others in the Yale list have a di-
rect relation to their lifework All the
Harvard honorary degees are equally
appropriate.
Mr.. J. 2. Morgan has a larger claim
to the degree Of doctor of laws given
to him at Yale than many others who
have been thus honOred in the past.
He is man of liberal education, but
nobody will ever write LID. after his
name or call him doctor" His de-
gree is therefore an empty honor,
which is pity. Yale desired to hon.
or him, as oxford and Cambridge. in
England, desired last year to bestow
honors upon eminent Americans, and
the pity is that the universities have
nothing more appropriate to bestow
than the mere symbols of academic
degrees. Mr.. Morgan has many of the
