strike CAUSES BIG STAMPEDE

Considerable excitement was caused
among the mining fraternity of Love-
lock the early part of this week by the
renort hat a sensational strike had
been made three miles northeast of the
old Trinity Mills in the Trinity range
and about Is miles northeast of Love-
lock. The result has been that most
ever available rig and auto has been
messed in service by those rushing TO
the new find.
1t has been impossible for the news
paper men to learn many particulars OF
the strike. J. G. Frey, who is associated
with + H. Eastburn in the original DIS
coverv. stated that on their property a
edea measuring IS inches in width had
been uncovered at the surface and that
some samples had been obtained, snow
ing free gold in abundance. No assays
have been had as yet but some or the
rock was panned and the gold values
were estimated to run close TO $500 per
ton. The formation of the country is

Mr.. Frey says that he and his assoc
c,ate will work very shortly
on several trenches and that the new
ara will be further opened up to deter

MOUNTAIN VIEW HAS
NEW FIND OF HIGH GRADE

And now the cry is Mountain View.
News from there the past few days
has been of a most sensational nature
which has resulted in quite an exodus OF
people to the scene, some out of idle
curiosity, others as stockholders and
still others to locate ground that may
be found subject to entry.
A letter received in Yerington Tues
day conveyed the information that a big
shoot of ore had been broken into in the
company's main workings. paintings

that it is easily mined. which made 1t
nossible to extract several tons the day

depth of about IS feet beneath the sur

few feet from the mouth of the tunnel.

the ore will mill better than 800 per

is under way. Felix Harmitt has tue
contract and is driving for the ledge
with all expedition possible. The ledge
is very pronounced and crops for ove-
