Yerington times. [volume] (Yerington, Nev.) 1907-1932, 1908-06-06

Last week we were able to tell of the
wonderful strike in the Mason Valley
mine northwest of this city. This week
we have news from the southeast.
The Northern Light Copper Company
has five feet of sulphide ore on the $50
foot level that places that property in
the list of mines and out of the. pros
poets. This property consists of six
claims and over 500 feet of work has
been done. The ore body encountered
is in crosscut 26S feet from the shaft
and the company has 5000 feet of ground
on this ledge.
The officers of this company are:
Isaac Strosnider, President; l.. II.
Bartholomew, Vice President and Man
ager; Charles II. Miller, Secretary; w.
+. McTaggart, Treasurer. Directors
Isaac Strosnider, l.. IL. Bartholomew,
w. +. McTaggart, D. Lawson, Ross
Thompson, VIM Wassor and w. Daver.
The success of this company proves
beyond a doubt that the copper zone ex-
tends from Buckskin to Walker Lake
and that this will be the greatest copper
producing district in the United States.

MOUNTAIN VIEW
AND GRANITE

The following is the opinion of Gold
field newspaper man of the new districts
just east of Yerington:
II think the Mountain View mining
district will prove to be one of the larg-
est milling camps in this State. The
ledges are of great size, and run in some
instances over 5000 feet, with surface
values that will average close to $40 per
ton. There are fifty-f leasers at work
in the district, and in all but six in
stances they have ore that will pan
across the bottoms of their shafts.
THE new camp is only six weeks old,
but has demonstrated its worth by ship
ping 100 tons of ore that gave net re-
turns of $119 per ton, and so tons that
averaged S57 pei ton. Nothing could
appeal more strongly to hard-headed
mining man than this, and only goes to
show how possible it is for a worthy
proposition to suddenly spring up on the
desert without the usual boosting that
has in many instances done SO much
harm to Nevada.
There are eleven leasers working on
what is known as the Big 20 ledge, all of
them having plenty of milling ore, and
FIVE have ore which will run from $50 to
$500 per ton. The veins carrying the
higher values measure from eighteen
inches to two and half feet wide.
:" All of the leasers on this ledge have
sunk their shafts on the footwall, and
have attained depth of from 80 to lis
feet. Realizing the necessity of cross
cutting the ledge at depth, the three
leasers on the northeasterly end of the
ledge have banded themselves into a
tunnel company and are now working
three shifts of men, at the present time
having bored distance of IS feet Ed.
Grahsm, wellknown mining man of
this state, is one of the leading spirits
in the tunnel enterprise, and is directing
the work. The bore will be 400 feet
long, and Will tap the ledge at depth
of 200 feet.
There are two townsites, Granite and
Mountain View, the former being the
larger and more thriving camp. Gran
lite contains about 200 people at the
present time and lies in very narrow
canyon, so narrow, in fact, that it per-
mits of but one street, and that not
overly wide. Desirable lots have sold
as high as $50.
"a Mr. Young, of San Francisco, has
decided to build mill on the Walker
river, about four miles from Granite,
and has signed contracts with the leasers
to furnish him the ore. The estimated
cost of mining. hauling and milling is
placed at 81 per ton.

ARTISAN WATER FOR
 SAN SIMON VALLEY

w. A. Wallace a prominent citizen of the town Of Rodeo, was in Douglas yesterday. returning home last night He reported that the residents of Ho- deo and the San Simon valley have become aroused in an effort to secure artesian water for that valley. Dur ing the past few weeks there have been several meetings of the citizens of Rodeo and vicinity held. at which the necessity for making an effort to secure aresian water was dis cussed. These meetings resulted n an unanimous agreement to start the trial well in the town of Rodeo and a final meeting is to be held tomor- row to award the contract for the first 300 feet of the proposed well. It Is known that some Douglas bids will be submitted for the work and it is quite likely a Douglas man will se- cure the contract.
 Water for domestic use at Rodeo is now supplied from wells sunk to a depth of seventy-fve feet. The wat CT is raised by windmill or gasoline engine. Water may be had in the San Simon valley at varying depths from seven to one hundred feet On

PALMIST DOES THE
 DISAPPEARING ACT
First Gets S130 From Too Con-
 fidng Woman.

PHOENIX, Jan. 27.-Phoenix has for several days been short one palm ist but the loss has not been so ser jous that the board of trade has con sidered it necessary yet to take the matter up and advertise for a success or. Perhaps, now that the winter is so nearly over, no action will be ta- ken in the matter for this season.
 The missing palmist was rather an attractive woman and soon established a fair clientele in spite of tae finan- cial depression She was making mon ey in that rapid manner frequently described as hand over fist" bur il was still coming too slow to suit her. One of her clients claimed that after one of the seances she missed a dia- mond, and to pin it next to her heart and on no account to remove it be fore the expiration of five days. fl these instructions should be carefully wish; the slightest deviation, how ever, would end in certain failure.
 The client went home confident that at the end of five days she would be s. happy woman, and was happy anyhow as any woman would be wearing s13o next to her heart At midnight of the fifth day, the client, confident now that her wish was cinched, took ofl the bag and opened it. It was filled with a roll of papers about the size oi bank bills. The palmist was also a palmer. The client called the next morning to recover the genuine buck skin bag, but within the five days the palmist had left town
 Now that discontented client has another wish and there is no palmisi to whom she can go to snow her how 1t may be realized.

NATIONS THINKS HE HAS
 FOUND PLACER GOLD

GUADAIAJARA, Mex, Jan. 27.- Daniel Nations of Guadalajara, the owner of several ranches in the south ern part of this state. believes he has discovered the source of the placer gold found in tBe Pihuamo district of Jalisco.
 He states that he has opened up a gold deposit near the top of a noun tain on the San Geronimo r.nch, one of his properties, and the ore runs 3j5 grams to the ton. He holds that the gold of the Pihuamo placers was wash ed down the mountain from this dc posit.
 The existence of the Pihuamo pIac- CTS has Been known for many years, and they have been worked to a linn tied extent by tae natives. A few years ago B. H. Hammett, representing Ohio interests, secured 250 per tencIas of the mineralbearing ground and prepared to work on an extensive scale
 A dam was built across the Belem river, pipe line was constructed, and considerable machinery, including an Evans hydraulic elevator was purchas- ed. However, before operations were >eommenced a disagreement arose among the men interested with Mir. Hammett, and the work was abandon ed. The title to the placer is still held by the Ohio interests.
 Mr Nations has started to develop the gold deposit and is taking out some ore. Tests show that the ore is free milling.
 A party of ten stockholders in the San Domingo Mining company will ar. rive here from the United States in the next few days, en route to the San to Domingo mines in the Hostotipaquii- To district of Jalisco. The party will be accompanied by c. H. Brooks, sec retary and treasurer of the company. Several days will be spent in an in- spection of the properties.
 The development of the Santo Do mingo mines is progressing steadily under the direction of Patrick Fitzger- aid, general manager Some time ago Manager Fitzgerald started sampling the ore bodies now exposed in the va rious workings. and this work is now well advanced.
 At the present time the properties are. in shape to keep big reduction plant running at full capacity. Recent ly bonanza ore was encountered in the San Pedro No. tunnel and drifting on the vein is now in progress This ore runs as high as 10000 grams to the ton.
 A car load of rich ore from the San to Domingo mines is in the company's storehouse in Etzalan, and will be ship

MIXED BREED WAR
 CAUSES CARNAGEE
A Latin-American-Yaqui Fight
 Near Phoenix. :

PHOENIX, Jan. 25-There was an American-Latin-Yaqu war on the oth- CT side of the river south of the city beginning on Saturday night and con cluding on Sunday night. Ever sincel then the sherif's office has been busy dragging the beIIigerants to jail.
 The first advices regarding the hos tiiides were brought to the office olI the sheriff yesterday morning by half breed, F. c. Gray when called after his father and Blanco when named after his mother. He is va querO employed at the Heard ranch He wanted to make complaint against two brothers Gutitsrez also vaqueros. wio had beaten him. His face showed that he had been roughly handled and a warrant was sworn out by Justice Kyle for the arrest of the assailants.
 Deputy Sheriff Olea went to serve the warrant and when he arrived at the house where the Guitterez brotl CTS were stopping he encountered a scene of carnage. Survivors of the battle were everywhere lying about. From uuQCT q Siuf5Ac DCG ttAr -CCI OA tA half dozen of the wounded protruded.
 Among them was a youth called Chappo. or Manuel Valenzuela. who appeared to be the worst sufferer. He said ne had been hit on the head by Gray with a revolver after Gray had shot at him. This affray happened m the river bed not far from the house, on Saturday night, and ValenZuela lay there unconscious until the next morn ing.
 The Guitterez brothers admitted the rough handling sf Gray but they said they had done t in self defense. Ar ter his assault upon Valenzuela he had been in a quarrelsome mood and on Sunday night he made an assault sln one of the brothers with a guB. It was taken away from him and the things that were done to aim were too numerous to mention. In the ensuing melee. in which about fifteen persons, Mexicans, Yaquis and nalf-breeds were. most of the combatants were injured. Among them were old man Cariago and his son. who said that they had been hit by the Guitfersz family. iTae brothers were brought to town and a complaint was sworn out against Gray, the original complainant. charging him with assault The case against him, in the light of what is known is more serious than those

the east side of the valley there are several places where the water comes to the surface. It is expected that a flow of water will be struck within 500 feet.
 A Magnificent Valley.
 There is no prettier valley than the San Simon anywhere in the south west and during the last three years great many settlers have taken land from the government there un- der the homestead laws. For a long time the big cattlemen discouraged the idea that it was possible to cuEti- vate the soil in the San Simon val ley, but the persistent newcomer has already demonstrated that almost every variety of crops may be sue cessfullY grown. Preparations are now being made by one of the big cattle companies to build a dam across the Cienega fifteen miles be- low Rodeo, and then cut ditch down the valley to carry water which will be sold to the settlers down the val ley as far as San Simon station on the Southern Pacific railroad.
 New School House.
 Last fall the citizens of Rodeo, with some outside assistance. built $500 school house which is now accommo- dating sixty pupils. Douglas contrib uted something to this school house for which, Mir. Wallace says. he and his neighbors are profoundly thank ful. Those who helped to build the Rodeo school house were: Interna- donal-American, $5: Copper Queen Consolidated Mining company $25; Bassett Lutnber company, $5; Doug las Lumber company. $5; Brophy Car riage company, $5; Albert Samss. $2-

about the treatment Of the homeless
which conflict with generally accepted
