JHON 5. COLEMAN
IS Still dumb

Mr.. John S. Coleman, who suddenly
became dumb few days ago, is very
little, if any, improved. His condi-
ton is a most peculiar one and as Mr..
Coleman is man who always enjoys
talking to his friends, his condition
is not only an embarrassing one to
him, but is also a serious matter.
though he has hopes of recovery. A
great trouble is that his friends also
think he is deaf, when he can hear
as well as he ever could and in COM
municating with others it is only nee
essary for Mr.. Coleman to do the
writing as he readily hears the re
plies that are made. His case is a sad
and peculiar one.

through the kindness of Mr.. Hardy
Noteworthy: Rev. Ed Phillips, the
pastor of the church. assisted by Revs.
E. w. Lipscombe, c. T. Noble and
others have been conducting one of
the finest meetings ever held in that
vicinity. The church was not large
enough to hold the vast crowds that
gathered, so a large tent was erected
just in front of the church. The con-
gregations have been exceedingly
large and a great deal of interest man

ifested by not only the Petal people
but large crowds from Hattiesburg
are attending.
Rev. C. T. Noble, the blind preacher
has certainly been a leading light in
the meeting. His sermons are helpful
and uplifting and have been the means
of drawing many souls nearer to
Christ. The singing is under the able
direction of Mr.. Felix Phillips. which
has added quite an attraction to the
services. The meeting has been in
progress since August 25 and will
close tomorrow evening.

PRODUCTION
ERA HAS SCARCELY STARTED

The population of Goldfeld, in spite
If the booms of other districts which
naturally attract a large number of
people. is reported to be constantly in
creasing. Goldfeld is a permanent
camp and city. It's era of production
is. we believe, scarcely started. 1t is
vet in the period of infancy, says the
Mining and Engineering Review.
While its wideawake mining men are
always on the lookout for opportunities
in new districts, Goldfeld is not more
than temporarily neglected. As a mat
ter of fact, all the newly discovered
districts in Nevada are quickly visited
by Goldfeld men, and if merit is found
they are the first to start and push de-
yelopment in the new fields. Rawhide
is full of Goldfeld men. and why!
This question is easily answered by
the statement that Goldfeld has made
good and has set an example of pros
perity that Goldfeld men do not hest
tate to follow in other camps. The sue
cess in Goldfeld is the incentive for
operations in other camps. To a large
extent the same is true of Tonopah.
The Goldfeld of five or ten years
from now has not yet been discovered.
bodies of mineral are constantly being
opened as work progresses, and the pro-
ducing area is continually widening III
all directions. Goldfeld has defed its
slanderers and put them to rout, and
TODAY Goidfeld is looked upon with
great respect by its former enemies.
The business Of mining instead Of
booming stocks is now the mainstay of
the camp which has settled down to a
business basis. All local troubles are

The usual buzz and hum of active
mining together with the noise of saw
and hammer, occasioned in building the
new mill, is the status of things over
at the Ramsey Comstock mine, says
the Recorder. Now that the founda-
tions for the mill are laid and the car
penters are getting the frame work and
lumber together, progress toward its
completion seems to make big gain each
day, although all the men who could
be readily handled have been doing the
preliminary work. Some very long
trenches and even tunnels have been
dug which has necessitated a lot of
time, but for all that the very best
Roadway has been made and it will not
be long now until the plant is grinding
out gold bullion.
Immense Milling Ledge
As a whole the big 40-foot ledge of
the Ramsey Comstock mine runs over
SIS per ton. That is breaking it all
from the foot wall over to the big
hanging wall vein these values are car
ried. The high grade portion, which
for the most part is found next to the
hanging wall and six feet in width, runs
better than 800 per ton, as an average.
Plenty of assay returns have been OBJ
tanned running several thousand dollars
per ton and if picked specimens are
tested the figures run up very high.
Withal the mine is one of the richest
in the state of Nevada and as soon as
the reduction plant is started a steady
and high production will be recorded
from the property.
Another Gold Find
H. s. Pohe, along with his business
of bookkeeping and looking after the
mail, has acquired some mining claims
here and has just made a strike on a
claim called the Pennsylvania. This
acreage is situated about a mile west
of town and takes in what is known as
McGovern's well and the old Home
stead. an old hut that was built in the
early days. The strike was made on a
wide porphyry dyke which trends
through the ground in a northerly and
southwesterly direction. Some white
quartz, resembling very closely that
obtained on the Ramsey Comstock out

On the 550-foot level, the ledge Of
the Round Mountain Mining company
has been crosscut and the ore at this
point looks better than any yet encoun-
tered in this now famous mine.
Eight inches of the vein near the
hanging wall goes better than 800 to
the ton. The whole width of the ledge
of % feet at every point in the mine
where it has been worked will mill on
an average between $15 and $50 10 the
ton.
During the month of April 2,34d
ounces of gold were cleaned up in the
mill the value being in the %neighbor-
hood of $4,000.
Superintendent Mcdonald has begun
drifting toward the west at the 550-foot
level following the rich hanging wall.
Harpending & Clark
No men ever had a better prospect
than have l.. (Doc) Harpending and
Top company's property.
In a ten-foot hole they have a four
foot ledge with well defined walls. The
entire four feet is milling ore and
through it run high grade seams from
whence fine specimens Of rock carrying
free gold are being taken.
Three sacks have been filed with this
specimen ore which is blotched and sho.
with the yellow metal.
According to the statement made by
Clark it is the present intention to sink
a vertical shaft down on the ore BODY
for a depth Of fifty feet.
The block extends up the hill for
nearly two hundred feet beyond the
shaft and by sinking to a depth of fifty
feet and then drifting into the hill, q
vertical depth of nearly two hundred
feet will be attained with the condi'
tions ideal for stopping.
Mattly & Mauli
The Mattly and Mauli lease on the
same property is steadily punching
down it's vertical shaft but as yet there
are no new developments and none are
looked for as yet.
On the c~ompany's workings, men are
at present engaged in putting up a gal
lows frame. The Fairbanks Morse en-
CINE is on the way from San Francisco
and everything will be in readiness te
set it in place the day it arrives
The company shaft, which is vel
timbered for its entire depth, is down
about seventy feet and Superintendent
O'Neil states that he is beginning te
