WONDER IS RETURNING TO
IT'S FORMER PROSPERITY

tlemen have interests in all sections of
the district, and as soon as things get
to moving they are in position to make
a lot of money.
Will Work on the Ajax
Captain James and Ed Heisel are
about to begin work on the Ajax Won
der ground at the southeast part of the
district. This company has been in
some financial difficulty, the result OF
the panic, and is now just recovering
from the shock. The Ajax is said to
have a very good showing considering
the limited amount of development
work done. Some very good assays
have been had from this ground.
vulture Extension Gets Busy
A contract was let this week to E. A
Ferron and Harry Grigsby to do SOM
work on the Vulture Extension prop.
erty. This piece of ground consists OF
three claims, adjoining the Vulture.
Good Progress on the Elsies
Lew Hahn and his crew are making
very good progress on their contracts
on the Elsie ground, and in ten OF
twelve days more will have completed
the job.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES E

The Goldfeld- Silver Peak Mining
company, comprised of local capitalists
operating in the Silver Peak district,
twenty-eight miles northwest OF Gold
field. is preparing to realize on its In
vestment. A ten-stamp gild amalgama-
ton mill is being installed and will be
in full operation by February l, lsos.
The ore is free milling and a saving OF
"a per cent has been demonstrated oy
actual tests, thus insuring quick and
economical reduction, being independ-
emit of railroads, hauling and smelling
charges, a comparatively low grade ore
can be milled at a profit. During the
past twelve months the company has
blocked out an immense body of ore,
using the most modern equipment and
pursuing the development work in a
thorough and systematic manner.

PEOPLE ARE BLOCKING
TO SILVER BOW CAMP

Forty-seven people are now at Silver
the edge of a big boom. The mines
there are looking irst-class and reports
are highly encouraging.
A fine strike is just reported on tho
surface of the Milkmaid claim, belong.
ing to j. G. Crumley and brother. A
ledge which thus far is two feet wide
with no walls as yet has given an aver
age assay of $2S.25. A shaft is down
sixty feet close by. The ledge is be
lieved to be a continuation of the Catlin
ledge on the west. The discovery was
made while doing assessment work,
The claims, sixteen in number, adjoin
the Silver Bow townsite on the north
and east.
Larsen is developing the Jennie X.
claim, otherwise called the Shotgun
claim, of the Silver Bow-Mizpah Min
ing company. In a shaft of 100 feet
there is a four-foot ledge giving aver
age values of $44.
Britt and Donnclly have a shaft nine
ty feet deep in the Missouri fraction
adjoining the Jennie X. They have a
fair showing ard are working steadily.
Coogan, Foran and Clark are devel-
oping the lie Roi group, which adjoins
the McGonagill- Silver Bow on the east.
They have five feet Of ore that aver
aged better than $50 and a small streak
of high grade running from 5000 to
1900.
Six or eight Goldfeld parties, among
them january Jones, have inspected the
camp within a few days. -Tonopah Sun.

t~alists, and they are putting their own
money into the enterprise. They started
right of in a substantial way to deter
mine what the big ledge carries at
depth and furnished the money to sink
a shaft 500 feet and to explore the
ledge at that level.
Exploration of the ledge on the ad-
joining property, 800 feet below sur
face, showed that the ore shoot was
gaining in length and that it must dip
into the Rather No. 2 ground. 1t may
take another 100 feet to catch it as
rich as it shows in the Ramsey Com
stock, but the operators are very apt
to be well repaid when the strike is
made. Results in the Rather No. 2 are
more or less problematical, as in all
mines, but there is every reason for
thinking that some good ore will be
opened and at that depth it means con
| elusive evidence of the permanently Of
the districts lodges.
Garavanta Mine
After a shutdown of six months the
Garavanta mine, located at the ex
IRENE southern end of the district, has
resumed development. This is what
may be termed a big low grade prop
~osition. Seven claims are included in
the estate which cover mountainous de
posits of p~orphyretic quartz, the wide
bodies of which range from "a to 81
per ton in assay value. Other lodges,
from a foot or two up to six or eight
feet in width carry higher values, and
| have returned assays above $50 per
ton. The values are almost entirely
gold.
The property has been under bond
, and lease to California parties, but the
long drawn out panic has prevented
them from doing the work they had in
tended. These people also contem-
plated a deal which was probably pre-
vented by the money squeeze. TIT
original locator of the property, Eugene
G~aravanta, is again in charge and is
making arrangements to open it in bet
ter shape than ever this winter.
Hawk Nest
Northeast of the G~aravanta mines
and on the same trend some remarkably
rich ore has been uncovered OF what is
known as the Hawk Nest claim. This
property was purchased this year by H,
Halterman, a Goldield mining man, and
he has had considerable work done
there of late. Mr.. Halterman went
over to Reno this week, but stated that
on his return he intended going at devel
opment full swing. Some of the richest
quartz ever seen in this district has
been obtained over there and because
the gold occurs in wire form it shows
up in a sensational way.

STRIKE

A remarkable strike of new ore has
been made at the Searchlight NJ. & M.
Co., a y the Bulletin of that camp. 1t
was encountered practically with the
first shot of the new work that was
started early in the present month. The
management has been reluctant to give
out the facts-or admit to themselves
the full signifcance-but now that
some 40-odd feet of exploration has
been made, the statement is voluntarily
made that the new ore means almost a
doubling of the value of the whole prop
erty. This conclusion has been reached,
not simply from the 40 feet of work in
question, but taken in connection with
the previously opened ore on levels
above and on the same level to the
west.

Z. w. Carmen, who has been IN
Cleveland, Ohio, for the past few weeks
attending a meeting Of the
ers of the Longfellow company as wen
as looking after other interests of their
Red Canyon mine, returned to Gardner
Vile last Saturday. The question OF
the erection of a acton capacity mil
at their property in Red Canyon is now
a settled fact and Mr.. Carmen states
that work in that direction will start
in the spring. This is an important
piece of news when it is remembered
that the mill is to accept custom work
and thus enable the small miners OF
the district to treat their ores advan-
tageously, being in a section where
transportation to a railroad would be
impossible.
During this winter the shaft will be
continued to the 400-foot level to deter
mine the size of the ore bodies at that
depth.-Record Courier.

MINING BRIEFS FROM THE Iey--
VARIOUS DISTRICTS In STATE
rHArxsorvrNa NINE RESUMES

THANKSGIVING NINE RESUMES
According to the Manhattan Mail the
Thanksgiving Leasing company has
been organized with Gilbert Ross of
Tonopah at its head, and an 1s-months'
lease has been secured on the famous
Thanksgiving property. Under the
terms of the lease the ~lessees get the
present mining equipment of the
Thanksgiving and will sink the main
shaft another 200 feet. The shaft is
now down to the 350-foot point and 1t
is expected that the 200 additional feet
to be sunk by the ~lessees will open up
better ore than has been found in the
upper levels. 1t is the intention of the
new leasing company to do as rapid
work as possible and at the same time
the shaft is being sunk level work Will
be done at the several stations now
opened.
The Thanksgiving Mining company
has Just closed a contract for milling
1000 tons of ore at the Canyon mill.
The Canyon mill has changed hands and
is now under a new management. Teams
have started hauling ore and as soon as
the mill has finished it's cleanup it will
start running on the Thanksgiving ton
mage.

PUMPS AT

The pumps at the Searchlight Nj. q
NJ. Co. are throwing an immense stream
of water out of the shaft, which is al
lowed to flow down the gulch, forming
a miniature river. As the Pompeii is
not pumping at present, the presump-
ton is that there is an added quantity
in the shaft, but even so, the pumps
handle the flow easily. The pumps, two
in number and of the same make and
size, are used alternately, n always
being ready to go into commission, so
there is no danger of the water getting
beyond control from a possible break
down,

ferson mine property near Round
Mountain, yesterday received word of
the arrival of three carloads of mining
machinery and mill supplies at Battle
Mountain. The machinery will be
shipped overland to the mine and upon
it's arrival there a large force of men
will be put to work erecting it. The
new owners of the property will push
operations as fast as possible and it is
expected that inside of six months the
property will be among the big divi-
dend payers of this state.

following is condensed and selected:
At what is considered the leading
mine of the district, the Ramsey-Com-
stock, attention is being given to the
construction of a 50ton capacity mill
ing plant. The mill has been long in
building, but this was occasioned more
by a change of management at the last
annual election of officers and directors,
than for any other reason.
The six-horse team employed by the
company has been steadily hauling
lumber and other material for several
weeks and is now engaged in hauling a
carload of machinery from Fort
Churchill. Superintendent McEwen
went to Dayton this week to secure
other teams and states that as soon as
he lands that carload of material at the
mine the construction crew will be put

therefore that the addition of a reduc-
ton plant to the Ramsey-Comstock
mine will be realized in the course of a
few weeks.
1t has been necessary to do consider
able retimbering in the mine, particu.
larly on the fourth level, but the caved
ground has been practically caught up
and the level is now in good shape for
Stopping. The mine is in very good con-
dition to supply the mill for a long
period and it is generally conceded that
bullion production for the Ramsey
Comstock property will do much to
bring this district to the front.
Ramsey Ophir
The principal mining effort of the
district is being conducted along the
Ramsey Comstock ledge, on the east
side of the Ramsey Comstoek mine on
Ramsey Ophir ground, a lease is being
operated by the Fahy brothers who
have sunk a shaft about SUI rect ana
are now engaged in driving a crosscut
to the ledge at that level. Some sui
phide ore was found above that point
which assayed $45 per ton and there
seems a strong likelihood that the work
now in hand will tap a strong body of
rich ore. Should this occur there is no
doubt that a lively demand will be
made for other leases on the acreage
and it will take it's place as one of the
principal mining estates of the district.
Rather No. 2
On the opposite side of the Ramsey
Comstock mine private capital is devel-
oping the Rather No. 2 estate. The
property was taken over several months
ago, under bond and lease, by Messrs.
