(frOm the Miner.l
The ore shipments over the Tonopah
and Goldfeld railroad for the week to
the Western Ore Purchasing company,
consisted of so tons from the MacNa-
mara, and los tons from the Tonopah
Extension.
The .Tonopah company sent $3.50
tons, the Belmont company 700 IONS,
the Montana-T onopah 100 tons, the
Jim Butler 300 tons, the Midway $50
tons and the MaeNamara so tons to
the mills, making the total shipments
for the week 6,19s tons.
The total output Of the Tonopah
mines was 6,19s tons, of an estimated
value (the shipping ore being valued
at $50 a ton and the milling ore at $50
a ton) of $130,2s0.
TONoPAH EXTENSION
That the recent increase in the value
of Tonopah Extension stock is based on
the merit of the property is easily
proven by an inspection of the under
ground workings Of the mine. One of
the finest ore bodies eve opened up in
Tonopah has been exposed by the de-
velopment work on the 550-foot inter
mediate and 600-foot levels west Of the
shaft. The fact that this fine showing
is made in the extreme westerly work
ings of the mine is also Of great i'm
portance, because it proves the exist
ence of good ore bodies in the western
portion Of the camp and gives the Elk
tension management an immense acre
age to explore, as their ground extends
fully 1000 feet beyond the most west
erly workings. The ledge in which the
recent big finds have been made is the
main vein of the mine thus far devel-
oped, and has been opened up on the
upper levels by thousands Of feet Of
work and has shown great strength
wherever drifted upon. On the go
foot level it has been opened up for a
distance of over 1000 feet and main
tains an average width Of over 10 feet
for the entire distance and has pro-
duced much ore of shipping values,
while the milling ore will exceed $1S
to the ton. Barring what 1t was neces-
to extract in the course of devel-
opment, this entire body is left stand
ing in the mine, and it will keep a mill
for years.
About 500 tons a month are being
shipped to the smelter. This ore is be-
ing taken out in the regular develop
work, only three men being m
in the slopes. No effort is made
to make large shipments, the manage
exerting all its energies to the
blocking out of and developing the
veins for future production. The mill
dump now contains between 10000 and
35 200 tons Of ore, which go between
$1S and $40 a ton, and every week
makes a ~perceptible increase in the ton
mage on the surface awaiting treat
ment.

ROUND MOUNTAIN LEASE
LEASE AGAIN IN HIGH GRADE

Following close on the heels Of the
strike made last week in the Harpend-
ing lease, the same stunt has been re-
peated this week in the same drift, ac-
cording to the Nugget.
Another series Of rich seams were en-
countered which went into the picture
values and a quantity of rock slabs
we're broken from the wall which were
studded with free gold.
BOND AND LEASE SECURED
Jack Sowell has secured a bond and
lease on 7 claims at Silver Point from
l.. Morasci. These claims adjoin the
acreage of the Royal Hawaiian Mining
company on the north and they are just
a short distance to the south of the
property Of the Round Mountain Le-
high Mining and Milling company, be-
ing between these two corporations.
RATHER WILL START WORK
The Round Mountain Rather com
pany which is owned by J. J. McCabe,
and Messrs. Taylor, Murphy and Nc
Mutt of San Francisco together with
Mr.. Stanton, expect in the near future
to sinking a shaft ON the
Isabel claim, which the company owns,
to the 200-foot level.
LEASE ON COMBINATION
Another lease was let on the Combina-
ton ground during the week to w. H.
Brown and A. 8. Chindgren. The
papers were signed on Wednesday and
the two men have a year in which to
work the ground.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK
FOR NEVADA

The outlook was never brighter In the
Sagebrush state. The year 1908 prom.
ises to surpass in point of production all
previous years and to put Nevada in the
lead of gold-producing states. or very
near the lead.
Goldheld. while late in getting sarted
because of labor troubles. is about to
settle down to a steady production.
which. before the strike. was approx
imating 81. zoo. 900 per month. One new
mill has been completed during the past
month. two others rehabiiitated. and
within a few months. or rather. weeks,
the big Florence mill will be pounding
away at a great rate. The Combination
mill has been in commission right along.
while the foundation for the CONSOLE
dated mill is being laid with the view
to having 1t in full operation by the
close of the year. says the Mining and
Engineering Review.
The Bullfrog district has been making
steady progress during the past year
and today is on a splendid producing
basis. The great Montgomery Shoshone
mine and mill alone are enough to make
a camp famous. The mill is handling
$50 tons of ore per day and turning out
great bars of bullion to d to Nevada's
total production.
Two years ago. Manhattan. backed by
San Francisco. was the reigning sensa-
tions Then came the earthquake and
the district languished. 1t has pulled
through the heavy going. is provided
with mills. and has had recently very
rich strikes. She has won out" and
men who stood by her In time of stress
ave won out. too. The Pittsburg man
would have let go in the slump and
lost out"
All the older camps Of Nevada are in
better trim now for production than ever
before. while the oldest even, the Com
stock. is going to add materially to the
output. Go down the list. Every one
will be a producer. while a year g
many had not reached the producing
stage, and. borrowing words from the
Goldfeld News, now comes Rawhide, the
newest, and apparently. one of the great
est Of them all. 1t is too early to pre-
dict the results of the years work in
the new bonanza camp. but surface in
would seem to justify the as
sertion that it will produce as much gold
as any of the camps of the state in its
first year, with the exception of Gold
field.
The year is still young but before 1t
ends, there will be several other good
camps spring up, and altogether there
will be a greater mining excitement
throughout the country than has ever
been witnessed in the history of the in
with Nevada the storm center.

AisEnICA's STOCK OF GOLD

The treasury department has just is
sued the latest statistics of the stock of
gold held by different leading nations
of the world. They show that the
United States holds 1888. 700. 900 in
gold. This is almost $500. ooo, 900 more
than Germany's stock. 500. O80. 900 more
than that Of France. an equal surplus
over Russia's holdings. and is more than
80 per cent greater than the gold stock
held by Great Britain.
We have commented upon these facts
during these days when
finances absorb the attention of more
people. The present stock Of gold in
America is probably 100000. 900 more
that the figures given above. That of the
other countries is very little increased.
with the possible exception Of Franco.
If this guess is about right. our present
stock of gold would be close to $780,
900, 900. &
Taking this as an approximately cor
rect figure we would h have nearly
40 per cent more gold h Great
Britain. Yet in spite of hi stringency
in the market for real money, forcing
the Bank Of England to raise the dis
count rate to 7 per cent. an almost UNI
p~recedented figure, h a country has
maintained its business upon q gold
basis without the least serious tremor
up to the present time. 1t will continue
to maintain this equilibrium between its
fiat money and it's foundation of metallic
money.
We nave failed in this effort to main
tain our finances upon an unshake gold
basis in spite Of our superior stock OF
metallic money. This one fact should
convince the most obstinate that there
is something wrong in our banking laws.
The system by which the ank of Eng
land raises her discount rate to protect
the stock Of gold is one Of the emer-
gency methods used in that country.
In case of a severe strain the Bank OF
England is authorized by law to disre-
gard her charter obligations and issue
notes to any extent found necessary to
relieve the strain by furnishing suf-
fcient currency to the commercial inter-
ests to carry on business without insur-
mountable difficulty.

Ed HOWE'S DAY.
About 10000 Persons Hear the Banda
Rosa and Henry Aliens Address.

Atchison, Sept 16.-The Globe says:
Atchlson people had an opportunity
to hear real music, and they took adj
vantage of it. The day was pleasant,
ana probably eight to ten thousand
people heard the night concert of the
Banda Rosa. The attendance in the
afternoon was also very large. There
were sixty men in the band, the in
strumentation being as follows: Six
teen clarinets; two oboes. two flutes,
three bassoons, one bass clarinet, four
saxophones, seven comets, four French
horns, two saxo horns, four from
bones, two baritones, four brass BASES,
four string BASES, one harp, two
drums; and one tympani player. 1t
was the largest and best band ever
heard in Atchison, and both the after
noon and evening concerts were listen
ed to with the closest attention.
Sorrentino said yesterday evening:
II have been a band director many
years. but this is the best behaved big
audience ever played to- The Banda
Rosa is a better band than the Marine
band, of Washington; it is in the class
| of the Guarde Republic band, of Paris.
Sorrentino was very obliging. and
played many extras. Among others,
/ THE Last Hope" which was asked for
| by paper containing forty signatures.
Sorrentino is growing steadily in pop
| ularity as a director. He is an I'M
| usually good looking man, for one
| InlnSs IOr announcer, ne IS a gentleman.
| This was demonstrated last night when
Henry J. Allen appeared on the plat
form to deliver an address, Immediate
| ly following the close of the last num-
| Der. Following the example given them
| by Sorrentino, the sixty men left the
platform without noise or confusion,
| and the speaker was not interrupted in
the slightest degree.
The last number on the band pro-
gramme at night was Tobani's Amer
lean Fantastic and when the sixty
players stood up, and played THE Star
Spangled Banner there were hearty
cheers. in addition to the hand clap
ping throughout the great audience.
And so closed the finest concerts ever
given in Atchison. And today the
greatest band ever heard here is but
a delightful memory.
Henry J. Aliens train was late, and
he did not appear on the grounds in
time to speak during the intermission
in the evening concert, so he spoke at
it's close. His friends feared the audi
ence would melt away. But the peo-
pie concluded to remain a moment,
| and the speaker appealed to them inn
mediately; so much so that they re-
manned until he concluded his address,
after twenty-five minutes.
Henry J. Allen is the cleverest man
| in the state. He doesn't growl at the
people; he admires them, and compli-
ments them and makes them laugh.
| He is a fat, good natured man, with a
contagious smile on his face, and peo-
| pie in an audience like him. His adj
dress last night was not only witty,
| but at times impressive and dramatic
| To hold an audience complete after a
great band concert, is a performance
very unusual in the history of public
speaking, but Henry Allen did it last
night

Mr.. Newman will leave Topeka about
the first of October and will take up
the position as cashier of the First Ma
tional bank of Logan, Kan. This is one
of the most firmly established banks
in the western part of the state and is
under the presidency of Congressman
w. A. Reeder. Mr.. Newman has had
considerable banking experience, hav-
ing assisted in organizing the Dover
State bank, and having an interest in
several banks over the state. The bank
at Logan is situated in an excellent ag-
ricultural community.
1t is the financial proposition that is
inviting Mr.. Newman to leave the To-
peka postoffice. As far as the work is
concerned he says he has never en-
joyed anything SO much, and the Iela
lions between himself and Mr.. Rodgers
has always been a most cordial one.
Postmaster Rodgers states that he will
miss greatly the services of Mr.. New
man but he realizes the advantage Of
the move he has taken and accepted
his resignation.
Mr.. Newman has been associated
with the Topeka postoff1ce since March
10, 1906, when he was made assistant
postmaster. 1t was at this time that
A. K. Rodgers was made postmaster.
Before this time he has always taken
a prominent part in city and county
affairs and has held many offices of
trust and honor with much satisfaction
to the people and his associates. He
has been a strong supporter of the Re-
publican party and has always been a
leader in political matters. He has
held the office of secretay of the Re-
publican county central committee,
county clerk (two terms), and assist
ant postmaster. Mr.. Newman has been
a resident of Topeka for over IA years.

COMBINE WITH TELEGRAPH.
Independent Telephone Company
Working on a New Scheme.

The Independent Telephone COM
pany is experimenting with a device
which promises to revolutioniZe the
price of telegraphing and lessen the
cost of quick communication be-
tween distant points if it proves a
success. The new system is known as
the Dean Rapid Telegraph, and is an
invention of r. L. Dean of Kansas
City. 1t is claimed that the wires of
any telephone company can be used
for transmission of messages by the
new device without in any way him
dering the working of the telephone
conversation.
The sending and receiving is done
entirely by machinery, the message
being transcribed on heavy paper by
a typewriter equipped with a peculiar
arrangement of dots and dashes.
These dots and dashes are trans
mitted over the telephone wires and
transcribed at the other end of the
line the same as stenographic notes.
A line of this kind has been in opera
ton between Kansas City and St.
Louis for year past and the work is
said to be entirely satisfactory.

The Cheapest Fat Reducer
Is the Best

The attention OF all who are half choked
and generally bedeviled by an excess of
fat which. by the way, always seems more
excessively excessive during the sultry
season than any other, is called to the
Marmola Prescription Tablets.
Seventy-five cents secures enough OF
these remarkable fat reducers from any
druggist to last you a good while, in fact
it buys an extra large case. This is
enough to make very desirable change
in almost anyone's weight. Taken one
after each meal and at bedtime the loss
of as much as a pound Of fat day has
been attained innumerable times.
This is a royal result that seems all the
more remarkable when one realizes these
tablets are cheaper by half than any
thing else your druggist has But the net
loss they bring about is not the only good
feature of these tablets. They are pleas
ant to take: don't disturb the stomach:
don't require one to exercise particle
or diet a mouthful. and last. but not least,
do not cause wrinkles. They reduce one
quickly but eVenly-naturally. They pro-
duce in short, the identical results of the
famous Marmo1a Prescription, with which
they arc Identical in composition. Try a
case. II your druggist Is sold out then
