entire day. Hundreds of specimens
were carried away.
The strike is perhaps the richest
and most extensive surface discovery
ever made in the district. AS the
values are not yet uniform and as
only a shallow depth has been gained,
1t is impossible to tell its real rich
ness or extent. The vein gangue on
the surface spreads over a width of
fully fifteen feet and ever the rich
est quartz streaks shows up already
at least two feet wide. The contents
of the vein could not be improved
upon. An assay taken Sunday
showed the following value: $17,-
S26 in gold and about $500 in silver.
That the vein is the identical body
that on the Mamma Hills ground is
breaking all records in Nevada is
proved by its position, strike, dip,
walls, vein contents and incredible
values. The strike was made with
in a few hundred feet of the Mazuma
Hills lines and the Mazuma Hills
working. Nowhere on the grounds
Of the Mazuma Hills is there a sur
face outcrop richer than the out
crop discovered on the Therein Sun
day.
The carrying of this big bonanza
lode across the gulch to the south is
an event, the Importance of WHEN
cannot be exaggerated. 1t estab-
fishes the continuity OF a vein that
has already proved to be one Of the
richest treasure vaults in the state
OF Nevada; 1t directly effects the
Interest of n of the big Friedman
properties and a string of four leas-
ing companies which have blocks OF
ground that cover the southwark
trend OF this unsurpassed ore zone.
But as great as the strike OF Sun
day was it is freely predicted that II
holds in store an even greater n
within a very short time. The cas-
crosscut from the bottom of the shaft
of the Mazuma Mining and Develop
ment company has almost reached
the same ledge at a point some thirty
feet south of the point of the sur
face discovery. The event of this
second prospective strike will mean
the birth of a new big mine.-Seven

GOLD STAMPEDE FROM
THE TOWN OF FALION

According TO reports received late
this week in Wonder, Fallon is in
the throes of a new stampede. The
rush was started by Mort" Jones,
who made good in Wonder last
spring, and then moved to Fallon to
enjoy some of the Injuries of city
life. Mort took into Fallon early in
the week some rock that was yellow
with free gold. He said that he had
taken it from two big lodges about
forty miles to the east by north of
Fallon, near an old settlement known
as Shady Run. The scene of the
strike Immediately became a Mecca
for Fallonites. Ever since then, it
is said, there has been a procession
out of Fallon headed for Shady Run.
Teams have been in great demand.
Those who did not W horses before
the story of the strike reached Fal-
Ion, have bought them since, and
are g%alloping toward the new FL
Dorado.
Shady Run is believed to lie about
ten miles to the east and north of
the big peak that, looming up across
Dixie valley, is conspicuous from n
of the high places in the Wonder dis
trict. 1t is probably about forty miles
from here.-Wonder News.

COMPROMISE IN
LITIGATION HILL
long DRAWN OUT MINING SUIT
SETTLED IN AMICABLE
MANNER.

At 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon a
compromise was signed between the
parties at issue in the famous Liti-
CATION Hill mining suit. This suit
has been in the courts since the lat
ter part of 1906 and was recently
appealed to the Supreme Court.
The parties in the suit were the
Manhattan Union Mining Company,
the Manhattan Union Extension Min
ing Company and the Liberty and
Justice Mining Company, and accord
ing to the agreement the Manhattan
Union Extension Company will trans
fer to the Liberty and Justice Com
pany a certain half of the Union No.
5 claim.
BY the settlement of this case ends
the law suits that for a time looked
like the destruction of Litigation
Hill, and now that everything
is clear, work will be rapidly com
menced and it will not be long be-
fore there should be more sensation
al strikes made.
The attorneys for the Liberty and
Justice people were VIM. Forman and
l.. A. Gibbons, while Campbell, Met
son and Brown, Key Pittman and
George Bartlett represented the Man
haitian Union Mining Company and
the Manhattan Union Extension Min
ing Company.

MINES ARE REPORTED PAY
ING STEADILY.

Certainly the prevailing low prices
of silver, copper, lead and zinc, says
the Mining World. and the curtailed
production of these metals and the
interruption of mining gold in Ne
vada and elsewhere by reason of
labor troubles and other causes, do
not bespeak confidence in the diyi-
dend-paying power of the mines and
m~etallurgical works. And yet not
withstanding these adverse factors,
no less than 33 American mines and
metallurgical works paid dividends
amounting to the large total of &c.
742,491 for the first two months of
the current year.
These SO concerns have declared
in dividends to date the enormous
sum of s253.174,20S on an issued
capitalization of $500, 041,S50, show
ing a return of nearly "a per cent.
This record does not include the
profits divided by the Amalgamated,
Copper Range Consolidated and one
other mines security holding corpo-
ration, which for the two months
this year amounted to 1928, 220,
making the total to date ~$64,819,-
$50 on the outstanding share capt.
tai Of 1874, 900, a return OF
about 80 per cent in less than ten
years.
Or the twenty mines that paid So
ST4,903 in dividends for the first two
months this year, seven were copper
properties which contributed s2,-
1892, 162. These copper mines have
paid to date the large total of $142,-
$50. 1926, showing a return of nearly
three times the issued capitalization
of $52,525,000 Even with copper
selling at IL or 10 cents a pound,
many of these mines should be able
to pay dividends. provided of course
there is a corresponding increase in
consumption of the metal and the
mines are not like some of the re-
cent hotations) obnged to meet the
5 or 6 per cen interest on their bond
issues.
What the prospects are for divi.
dends in the last month of the first
quarter of the present year can be
conjectured by the action of certain
of the larger companies that have
postponed the declaration of their
regular payments for the purpose of
strengthening their financial condi-
ton SO long as the metal market is
in a nervous state. Incidentally the
management of these large mines are
endeavoring to check. If possible, the
speculation in the stock market that
might result in further disaster to
the Legitimate shareholders.
