There nave beer many meritorious
and pleasing amateur performances
given by Goldfeld local talent, but
nothing in the past compared with the
reproduction of the Mikado, last night
under the able management of Ms.

from orchestra to dome. 1t was a
brilliant and beautiful spectacle. Many
of the club women, arrayed in kimonas
and Japanese decorations, acted as
ushers. and the house decorations were
appropriate to the occasion.
Mr.. Pollard was musical director, and
with Mrs. Croxall's assistance in the
training of the musical parts, and with
Mrs. Smith as stage manager, put on
the show like a regular "stager."
1t is difficult to specialize when it
comes to referring to the work of the
various performers. Mr.. Merwin as the
Lord High Exeeutioner was easily the
star of the performance and kept the
house in a constant uproar; Mrs. Hogan
made a most interesting character out
of an unpleasing part and redeemed the
performance several times when it was
inclined to drag. Her work was that of

RAWHIDE DEVELOPMENTS OF
AN INTERESTING CHARACTER

cut and its ore bodies be drifted upon
The Gillilland lease Is one of a number
inspected by J. b. Fleming recently,
and is included in that gentleman's
category of leaseholds from which a
large ore tonnage is assured.
wright-Price Lease
A hosting plant was installed at the
Wright-Price lease on the Bluff claim
the present week. Shaft sinking has
been resumed and is to continue until a
depth of $50 feet is gained. At that
depth a crosscut is to be run out to con
tact with the ledge exposed at surface
and from which a number of high grade
assays have been secured. A peculiar
feature connected with the deposit is
the fact that it appears to be cut off at
nominal depth. At least there are few
signs of it's presence from a few feet
below surface to the present depth of
the shaft-S5 feet. 1t is, however, quite
possible it will reappear in the work
ings once the badly broken up forma-
tion nearer surface has been penetrated.
Townsite Lease
The pigmy hoist recently erected at
the collar of the Townsite lease shaft
on the estate of the Rawhide Coalition
Mines company is doing valiant work
in way of hosting waste therefrom.
Sinking is to continue until a depth of
$50 feet is gained and at that level the
block is to be thoroughly crosscut and
proved up. There is reason to believe
the leasehold carries the continuation to
the southwest of a number of the paral-
leling assures which obtain in the Grutt
Hill section. 1t is with the object of
tapping and testing such the present
progress of development is being car
ried on.
Grutt-Hard Shipment
The first shipment the current month
from the Grutt hill section went out
Monday from the Grutt- Hard lease on
the Coalition c%ompany's estate. 1t
bulked about Is tons, and, like its pre-
decessors, went to sampler at Hazen.
For the most part it was mined in the
drift from the 40-foot level of the old
incline shaft. 1t had an average value
of $500 the ton.

ing run on the 100-foot level with the
expectation Of cutting the same ledge
at that point. The company is also
making arrangements to start develop
ment work on the lower levels just as
soon as the vein is cut on the l00-foot
level. The management expects to ind
the ore much better as depth is at

Arthur ii. Lawry, superintendent of
the Consolidated Red Top, has issued
the following report
November 4, 1905.
j. C. ROBERTSON, Secretary,
42l Main Street, Goldfield, New.
A statement sent out by John Don
nellan 4 Co., who control the lease, re
flutes exaggerated reports published re
garding the richness and extent of the
ore bodies. a move naturally to be ex-
pected from such "a conservative firm
as this. In other words, the firm de-
sires to keep its Consolidated Red Top
shareholders fully posted, without rails
ing false hopes.
The report of the superintendent is a
clear, concise statement of facts. 1t
follows:
Since my last report a very consider
able amount of work has been accom-
plished both in extracting ore and in
development work. We have steadily
continued the shipments of ore and
throughout have maintained an even
production, rather than an effort to
spasmodically increase our output.
1t is gratifying to report that we still
have considerable ore of good grade in
sight and we are conducting ore devel
opment work in such manner as to al
ways keep a definite amount of ore
blocked out.
Hitherto our production has come
principally from our 225-foot level
stope; at the present time we are rais-
ing on our 150-foot level, with the view
of blocking out ore above and l I'm
glad to say with most satisfactory re-
suits. We have also begun stopping
from our 300-foot level; the ore is of
good grade and at the present time
there are indications that this stope
may increase in value and production.
During the past two months we have
made s21 feet of drifting and crosscut-
ting, PIG feet of upraise, Az feet of
winze and 80 feet of work on the sur
face. In our 150-foot crosscut to the
west a big vein was encountered 40
feet wide, which contains streaks of
most promising character, and l con
slider we nave every reason to expect
excellent results from the further de-
velopment of this tremendous ledge.
From the same level to the north we are
running a crosscut to the northwest for
the purpose of developing that portion
part CT our lease and which is consid-
erably larger than that to which we
have hitherto directed our entire en-
ergy, and both from surface indica-
tions and recent developments in the
mine, gives promise of further splendid
results. A crosscut is also being run
on the 150-foot upraise into the foot
wall and has passed through q streak
of tale containing excellent values. The
face of this crosscut at the present
time is just entering another vein
showing considerable iron stain.
In Wine No. 2 on 150-foot level, a
streak carrying excellent values is be-
ing followed and should this seam in
crease in width, we nave every right to
expect a new shoot of good shipping
ore.
On the 225-foot level, we have con-
tinued drifting on our No. 2 south vein
and today have COM upon values of
good shipping grade. 1t would appear
that we have encountered here an en-
tirely new body of ore. This vein is
three feet wide, well defined and strong,
and l believe we ear expect profitable
results. On the 300-foot level in our
main crosscut, we rave recently opened
