REPORT BIG IMPROVEMENT
ABOUT RAWHIDE DISTRICT

The deepest shaft in the camp is on one
of the Grutt leases; that has reached
a depth of 400 feet, and the last seven
tcen feet was through a solid body of
ore of high milling value.
In all, Mr.. Coote states, he counted
eighteen gasoline hosting plants at
work in the district, and of whims and
windlasses there are at least three
times that number. Machinery for two
or three milling plants has arrived in
the district, as has also a considerable
part of the equipment and pipe which
the water company will install. 1t is
expected that the water plant will be in
operation and serving water some tim
in September.

NEW ORE SHOOT FOUND IN
ROUND MOUNTAIN MINE

Lotus and Davis have added a pipe
to their mineral e~ollection-not a to-
baceo pipe, or the kind that dreams are
made of, but a pipe fashioned out of
tale taken from a new strike made on
the Round Mountain property this past
week. The tale shows free gold all over
it., like an ornamented affair.
II. G. Mayer, secretary and office
manager for the LOTUS Davis company,
was at Round Mountain the early part
of the week, and Mr.. Mayer examined
the new ore body. 1t was found back
of the hanging wall. The ore shoot is
very large, 90 feet of which shows ore
of an excellent milling grade. Some of

Work of connecting up the upraise
with the shaft on the Florence Exten-
sion, has been completed, and now this
property has a shaft 500 feet deep,
through which to operate its ground.
The Florence Extension people gained
the privilege from the Rosebud lease t"
drift from their shaft, in order to reach
a point $50 feet below the old shaft on
the Florence Ex., with the intention of
upraising and meeting the shaft at the
35O-foot point. This work was com
pleted this week, and a perfect connec-
ton was made, thus giving the Florence
Extension people a 500-foot shaft from
which to operate.

NE gentlemen are members of the St
Ives Leasing company which is the
owners of both property and leases in
that district, and one of the purposes
Of their visit was to inspect the COM
pany's possessions. Their lease they
are pushing with all speed and with a
depth OF 200 feet in the ground and
several hundred feet of lateral work a
showing has been made, together with
the long term their leasehold calls for,
that justifies them in putting up a mill
ing plant of their own. This purpose
has reached such a stage that within
the next few days they will accept some
one of the several sets of plans that
have been submitted to them and
order the almost immediate construc'
ton of a reduction plant, with a daily
capacity of from forty to fifty tons.
Of the district generally, both gen
tlemen assert that it is now on a most
substantial basis and is recovering re
markably from the slump which encom
passed it a few months ago. In add

the rock is very rich in gold, resembling
the sensational specimen stuff that
made the camp famous. The new ore
shoot stands almost perpendicular,
whereas the main vein dips at an angie
of As degrees. The shoot is being fol
lowed up to the 400-foot level and may
prove to be continuous to the surface.
The old workings of the mine are in
excellent shape, ore being exposed il
several faces, and the mill is keeping
up a steady production and turning
out bullion for expenses with a good
margin for dividends right along. A
policy of regular dividends has been in
augurated, and doubtless extras will be
paid from time to time.

a lease on the st. Ives claim, has tenn

and is now working in one of the up

very rich ore has been struck. 1t VIII
be remembered by the old timers in the
camp that the work about the ffty-foot

was lost. 1t was the luck, however, of

liams. The samples were verv ri,b
showing free gold sprinkled throughout.
Of course Mrs. Williams was very mach
elated e the find, and took the speei.
mems to s. Wyman Smith, a New York
attorney, who had but two weeks pre-
vious entered into an agreement with
Mrs. Williams, for the incorporation Of
a company On her group, and for the
sale of stock. By this agreement. he
was to W half of the ownership
stock, after taking care of a Mrs. NJ. G..
Marquis, a stenographer in L. II. Roc.
ers' Office, who had acted in bringing
the two principals to the deal together.
Mr.. Smith had come to Goldfeld only
a short time before, to pick up some
mining property for the eastern market.
and he seems to have literally fallen
headlong into a fortune. if surface in
dications go for anything, and Mr..
Smith admits that he knows absolutely
nothing about mining and rock forma-
ton.
Old Abandoned Workings
Parkey, the prospector, found the
specimens near the top of a 25-foot
shaft, that had been dug 80 years ago.
The old miners had gone down at the
side of the ore, and either had missed
1T entirely, or were forced to abandon
the location by Indians, who were num-
erous and troublesome at that time. At
any rate, time and the action of the ele-
ments exposed this rich rock both at
the top of the shaft and subsequently,
it appears, at the bottom. When the
samples were shown to Mr.. Smith he
Immediately went to the scene of the
find and brought back some samples of
his own picking. These samples were
assayed and ran $~4,313.60. Mr.. Smith
then returned to the property with some
miners and came back to Goldfeld
with IL sacks of ore, which were taken
to the Nevada Goldfeld Reduction
works, and a mill run showed 356
ounces, or something over $1,000 to the
ton.

Rich by Revelation.

A great deal of fuss has been made
over the alleged fact that the wife
of a former United States Senator
from one of the western states is
growing rich by means of number
of valuable inventions which did not
originate in her own mind but were
communicated to her by revelation or
inspiration. There is nothing partic-
ularly remarkable in that. There are
quite a number of men in this city who
have grown rich by inventions which
never originated in their own brains.
They also received their ideas by way
of revelation, but in their case the
revelations were not of the trans
cendental kind 1t was not a case of
heavenly inspiration, but of plain
stealing. The ideas were revealed"
to them by altogether too trusting and
unsophisticated inventors, who had
tried to interest them in their inven-
tons with a view of obtaining their
financial aid in bringing out the in
vention. Some of the wealthiest
men in this part Of the world owe
their wealth to just such revelations"
