ORC CITY WILL SOON HAVE
STAMP MILL In COMMISSION

Orc City, a new camp about twelve
miles from Hawthorne, and three miles
from the famous Famlico mine which
has produced several millions in the
last few years, is rapidly coming into
the limelighr. Development has been
going on since last August, says the
Nevada Miner, and nearly
every property there has good lodges.
There are about a hundred men in the
camp at present and all Of them are
working. A mill is on the ground and
is practically completed. L. is expected
to start in a week or ten days. The ore
bins of the mill are full of ore and a
Ian ge quantity of ore is deposited on
the ground waiting to be milled. The
mill will have a capacity of about if-
teen tons per day. There is an ample
water supply, as the mill company has
a pipe line from the springs about a
mile and a half from the town.

Among the properties on the east
side Of Balloon hill, Rawhide, that are
in the lime light this week is the Raw
hide Daisy, which has again opened
UP ore on the 75-foot level in the north
shaft that promises to develop into one
of the best ore bodies in the camp. The
ledge upon which the present discovery
has been made is not the same one on
which the strike vas made in April,
but is an equally strong and parallel
one cut at a depth of As feet in the
main shaft. At the present time it has
opened up to fully six feet in width and
pans freely. Superintendent Schweble
states that the entire bottom of the
shaft is now in milling ore and that the
values are increasing with depth.
1t is the intention to continue the
work to the 100-foot level, at which
point a crosscut will be run to cut the
big ledge upon which the work was first
started and which dipped out of the
shaft at the 40-foot level. Judging
from present indications ore of a ship

made public.
development on the estate of Bal
loon Hill Mining company, with the ex'
ception of surface trenching and pros
pecting on the Commodore and the Com
mercial claims, has been carried on in
the Litigator claim. 1t consists of two
shafts. One of these is an incline, down
80 feet. 1t was sunk on the ledge and
gives good prospects all the way down
from the surface. On account of the
difficulty of working an incline shaft
this shaft was abandoned and a verti-
cal shaft of two compartments, tim
bered and Jagged throughout, was sunk
to the 75-foot level and a erosseut from
there started for the ledge. This cross
cut is in now 10 feet. From the in
dications in the last 10 feet we are APP
preaching the ledge. The country rock
now being run through by the crosseut
is shattered and filed with quartz and
fault seams These give assays of from

every man is being worked that it is
possible to work economically and adj

NEW YORK STOCKS TAKE A VIOLENT Tumble

The week closes with the decided set back on the New
York stock market predicted in these letters May goth.
Standard stocks, ST. Paul, Union Pacific, and other leading
railroad issues taking a violent tumble of more than six
points in the trading Saturday last, with the industrials
following the rails in the flop. The volume of business was
very large, running more than a million shares per day and
winding up and setting back temporarily at least the bull
movement which has been in progress for several months.
On the local and San Francisco exchanges the mining shares
have had a most unpleasant recession, with closing figures

the break naturally expected, would recover, but bear argu-
ment is, like the poor and 'Uncle Toms Cabin, with us
always. The summer season with the inevitable and ever
recurring summer dullness, is nearly on and while June
should see some advance, with active trading, the succeed
ing two months will most likely be characterized by light
speculative trading and a stagnant market. The July dis
brrsenients, enormous cash payments of dividends and in

well developed, but for the work done,

He sampled the 50-foot level, every
two feet, for over 100 feet, and got an
average of $115. The gold is so fine as
to be scarcely visible through a glass,
and the stamp mill on the ground, in
consequence, has been making a very
poor saving. The company is capital

Nat c. Goodwin Mining and Leasing Company
We are offering a limited number of shares belonging to the
treasury of the Nat c. Goodwin Mining and Leasing Company at
.O5. We guarantee that the entire S cents realized for each share
sold will go into the treasury of the company. The company is
capitalized for 1850, 900 shares, of which 100000 shares ire treas
ury stock. Nat c. Goodwin is president. The company owns the
Tecumseh and Osceola claims in Rawhide, about 800 feet from the
Rawhde Consolidated, one of the camps bonanzas, and also owns
the Nat Goodwin Lease on the Rawhide Queen, which adjoins the
OgiIyie-Reynolds and Kearns No. Leases and is situated within
another Mohawk.
Development work on the Nat Goodwin Lease has been prose-
cuted continuously for several months. A accompaniment verti-
cal shaft is down IS feet. The shaft is now in ore running from So
ton of the cross-vein of the Kearns No. 1 and the contact vein of
the Kearns No. 2. The best engineering talent in our employ is a
unit that a high-grade ore-shoot will be opened up along this con-
tact at the junction of the cross-vein of the Kearns No. and the
contact vein on which the Kearns No. 2 has found its richest ore.
The lease does not expire until 1910.
The lease is assuredly one of the most promising prospects on
the Queen estate, and we ar convinced that the offering isw without
a parallel from the standpoint of price and intrinsic value behind
the security. Our friends near at home are subscribing rapidly for
this issue. Subscriptions from remote parts that are delayed may
result in disappointment, for the reason that we re confident
we will not have enough stock to go around. Immediate subscrp-
tons are invited. Remit in full for the number of shares desired at
the rate of 5 cents each.

TWO SUDDEN DEATHS.
Messrs. John Mccormick at Rut-
land and Peter Parent at Gen.
ter Rutlsnd.

John Mccormick, aged rs years, la
borer at the Vermont Marble company e
mills in West Rutland, met instant
death Wednesday night at 6 o'clock
while returning from work to the home
of his daughter, Mrs. John Tighe. 1t is
understood that MIR. Nc Cormick as usual
was making his way along the Delaware
and Hudson track in the direction of
Castleton, when he saw that his daugh-
ter's house, which was situated on the
hill to the left, was on fire. Transfixed
with astonishment and anxiety, the old
man stood between the rails and did not
hear the approach Of the express train,
No. 1903, from Whitehall. Patrick Gil
feather, who had been walking on the
track some distance ahead of Mccormick,
had stepped aside when he heard the
train.
The big locomotive dashed into the old
man, whose face was smashed in, the
legs were broken and the body was other
wise Injured.
A pathetic feature in connection with
the accident was the fact that the old
man had reached point only 100 yards
from the place where he would have left
the track and started for the house.
Mr.. Mccormick was widower. He is
survived by two sons Daniel Cormick of
Middlebury and John Mccormick of
Dover Flats, N. Y, and four daughters,
Mrs. Tighe and Miss Isabelle Mccormick,
with whom he resided, and Mrs. Thomas
Burns and Mrs. John Burns of Middle
bury. Conductor John Lalor of Rutland
was in charge of the train.
