NEW PICTURE
SHOW IN CAIRO
MANAGER D. L. WILLIAMSON OF
OPERA HOUSE CLOSES CON-
TRACT WITH FARNBAkER.
FOR ID Rk NIGHTS
High Class Attractions Will Be Offer.
ed For Which an Expensive
Equipment Has Been
Ordered.

Manager ID. l.. Williamson of the
Cairo opera house yesterday closed a
contract with NJ j. Farnbaker where
by the latter is to open and conduct
strictly high class moving picture
show in the Cairo opera house on the
dark nights commencing next Mon
| day during the remainder Of the regu-
lar theatrical season.
! In presenting this series of moving
| pictures and song entertainments UNI
der the direction of Mr.. Farnbaker to
| the amusement-loving public of Cairo
at the opera house on evenings when
no other regular road attraction is
booked, Manager Williamson feels con-
fident that liberal patronage will be
bestowed upon the enterprise.
Mr.. Farnbaker has attained a sig
nal success in the moving picture line
since last April when he deserted the
journalistic ranks both at Jackson and
at Paducah, where he now operates
1.-TWO theatres, The Kentucky and The
! Bijou. His success ought to be and is
q sufficient guarantee as to the excel.
lence of the entertainment he will
provide.
The Cairo opera house will be oper.
ated by Mr.. Farnbaker in conjunction
with his other enterprises at Padu-
cab and Jackson and which will be
added to shortly by the acquisition of
the Columbia at st. Louis and the Ma
jestic at Evansville.
| For this series of entertainments Mr.
| Farnbaker has ordered a duplicate OF
a machine he now has at the The Ken.
tucky of Paducah, an apparatus con
sidered to be the finest and cOstllest
projecting picture machine manufac-
tured. He will arrange by telegraph
| today for an exclusive first run" ser
vice of pictures with the greatest job
| bling house in America. He also Is in
communication with two young wo
men vocalists, former members of the
chorus of the Bostonian Opera com
lpany and whom he confidently expects
to secure, Who will render the Illus
Itrated songs and special numbers.
In connection with the presentation
of the pictures, all mechanical effects
will be produced under the direction
f a competent staff of men who know
their business.

The new theory advanced by L. T.
Cooper relative to the human stom.
ach has attracted such widespread
attention that the public in cities
visited by the young man has been
coined by many physicians in dis
cussiorl of his beliefs and medicines.
Mr.. Cooper says that human health
Is dependent almost entirely upon
the stomach. lie says that no dis.
case can be conquered without first
alternating all stomach disorders. He
further says that most men and Won
en- Of this generation are half-sick,
owing to degenerate stomachs. AMI
lastly. he claims that bis New Dis
covary medicine win reiuvenate the
human stomach IN 80 days,
Cooper has been travelling from
one city to another, conducting in
each what he calls a campaign of
education. Fer tao past year ne has
met the public il the larger cities
Of the country. aad his success has
been phenomenal Thousands Of
people have flcel5ed to his headcuar-
tiers wherever he has gone, and the
sale of his medicine has been beyond

witnessed.
Possibly the most Interesting fec.
ture IF the attention this young man
has attracted is what his army OF
followers, whom ne has converted to
his beliefs through his medicines,
have to say on the subject. The fol-
lowing statements are from two well
known residents of Chicago and Bos-
ton, respectively, and the enthusiasm
OF these is Characteristic Of Cooper's
admirers generally.

NEW STRIKES AT GOLD CIRCLE

nothing better could be expected or de-
sired. One of the latest finds of import
anee was made on the Esmeralda prop
erty, this find extending the mineralizel
area to a very significant extent. On
the Esmeralda there are three feet of
$40 rock and it is fine looking ore. The
Water Witch likewise has been making
some long strides of late. This property
is drifting at a depth of twenty five
feet on one foot of free gold quartz, the
formation being permanent. The Gold
Circle Crown and others are pegging
away, says Mr.. Savage, to good adj
vantage.
Mr.. Savage is very enthusiastic over
the present showings in Gold Circle,
and is of the opinion that the ore dis
closures of today are merely a sample
of what will be registered with greater
depth.

A. M. Duncan, secretary and treas
urer, and j. f. Sollenberger, vice presi-
dent of the Golden Cycle Milling and
Mining company, have just returned
from a -four days trip to the mines in
Masonic, and report the work of devel-
oping progressing finely, says the APP
peal.
The shaft, which intersects three
veins is being sunk rapidly and is now
down 50 feet, and although it is not
calculated to strike the main ledge un-
der 100 feet in depth, yet highly min
e~ralized quartz is being encountered,
showing the vein matter close at hand.
The shaft is conceded by all who have
been in the district to be the best so
far sunk, being 4 by Z in the clear and
thoroughly timbered. This work is un-
der the management of G. r. Morris, a
competent engineer. A within is to be
erected on the shaft as soon as it can
be landed ON the ground in ordert o
rush thes haft to the known mineral
deposit.
The work on the Golden Cycle is of
such a nature that those who have in
vested in the property are certainly get
ting a run for their money; in fact,
every dollar that is being expended is
for development and Zone thrown away
it is stated. According to work so far
done the main lodges should be cut in
from 90 to so days. With a within on

SEVEN TROUGHS LOOKS GOOD

eighteen inches of the ore is of high
grade character, with a massive streak
O.. rock that shows free gold through
and through. In addition to the picture
rock, which is fairly spotted with coarse
free gold, much of the ore in which no
free gold can be seen, yields paintings
of remarkable richness. The high grade
streak is of such "a substantial character
that sacking operations are proceeding
rapidly.
1t is believed that the compressor and
other machinery which has been or
dered for the Wihuja, will be at the
mine in not less than twenty days. This
latest equipping of the mine is the
fore runner of the most extensive opera
tions that have been undertaken on the
property. Burnley drills will be in
stalled at the two hundred and sixty
five and the three hundred and sixty
FIVE foot levels as soon as the com
pressor is installed, and the mining
force will be greatly increased. The in
stallation of the pump has been rem
dered necessary by the decision of the
management to start a drift on the
three hundred and sixty-ive foot level.
Considerable water has been developed
in the property and a pump has been
ordered large enough to take care of
the present flow and all probable infows
of the future. The pump will be the
largest in the district, capable of
handling s~eventy-fve gallons a minute.

Famous Mine Optioned
j. A. Miller, through JOS. A. Vincent,
of Philadelphia, has given to a syndi-
cate of eastern capitalists, a 6O-day
option on the Kingston properties, In
GLIDING the Kingston group of mines
and the Kingston ranch of 500 acres
which holds the valuable water rights
of Big Smoky creek. The option calls
for substantial payment at the end OF
co DAYS, the balance being distributed
through the ensuing two years. Total
figures runs well up into the hundreds
of thousands.
The personnel of the syndicate leaves
no doubt as to the ability of the con
templating purchasers to handle the
property successfully.
Their engineer is now on the ground
making complete examination ana re-
mort. which is to include complete work
inc plans for mining and milling.
Lease at Clear Creek
s. f. Mcintyre and Geo. f.. Croweii

Of Clear Creek and will send out men
the coming week to begin work.
Specimens of ore brought in by Mr..
Mcintyre PANIED free gold, giving a
string of the yellow metal over an men

Mr.. Mcintyre says he has never seen
hotter surface showings in gold thai at

Bringing news of very much import
ance to Salt Lakers interested in the
Gold Circle mining district of Nevada,
Leslie l.. Savage, general manager of
the Elko Prince company, is in this city
from the camp, says the Salt Lake Trib-
une. Mr.. Savage brought along with
him a splendid specimen of gold ore
that comes from lease No. ?, or Wier
lease, on the Elko Prince. The rock IS
covered with free gold, and for that
reason it has not been placed in an as
sayer's hand. Mr.. Savage is pleased
with this showing. Three leases are
working on the Elko Prince, while the
company is doing considerable work on
its own accord.
From a general standpoint, taking the
mines from one end of the Gold Circle
camp to the other, Mr.. Savage says

The Signal Peak Mining company,
whose estate occupies the high divide
overlooking Seven Troughs canyon, will
make it's first shipment of ore the latter
part of this months, says the Seven
Troughs Miner. The decision to ship
has reached as a result of a remarkable
exposure of ore in the winze at the
sixtv-ive foot level, one hundred and
twenty-five sacks of high class shipping
ore having been taken out In SINKING
the Wine twenty-three feet. The ore
is a splendid grade of quartz showing a
remarkable uniformity of high values.
Superintendent Mcintyre is authority
for the statement that a foot OF the
vein will average better than a hundred
dollars a ton. In addition there are sew
eraI feet of high class milling ore. The
vein is between four and five feet wide
and the Improvement in the width and
character of the ore body has been SO
rapid that the management believes
they are opening up one of the greatest
properties in the district. Mr.. Mcintyre
said during the early part of the week,
that the shipping streak had wldenea
so much that in order to preserve the
walls of the winze only part OF the ore
is being taken out. The winze is one
hundred feet south of the shaft, SO that
all the ore has to be handled twice IN
bringing it TO the surface; in spite OF
this drawback a shipment rs assured DN

pany has done considerable develop

atoms for a while, but on my return
from San Francisco we shall resume

CAMP OF IBEX SHIPS HIGH GRADE

/. p. Carpenter came in from hex
yesterday. He reports that the outlook
for the future in his district is very
bright. The hex mine has been ship
ping high grade silver ore that promises
to make the district famous. Eleven
and a half tons were recently shipped
to the sampler at Hazen that averaged
$500 a ton, says the Sun
Fred G. CRUDE, one of the ~leasers,
shipped 400 sacks of high grade, and
has two more carloads in sight. He is
working eleven men, and driving a tun-
mel 225 feet, that will ent the ledge at
a depth of $50 feet. He is also sinking
a double compartment shaft, and per
forming all work in first class mining

Reville. This week J. L. Jones and W..
B. Cummings in doing prospect work
discovered they have a bonanza II the
Mabelle group about n mile norte OF

ledge and had exposed it to a depth OF
Is feet when they decided to send some
samples to Tonopah friends. These sam
pies at Tonopah were submitted to an
assayer at n of the big mines. HIS
report showed the values to be $2's.3'.
Great Progress Made
Remarkable progress has been made
in mine development in Austin during
the past four months and the prellm-
~inaries have been so shaped tina the
work will soon be augmented each
month in geometrical ratio. The burden
of the work so far has been OF a pre-
liminary nature, akin to the ~xcavation
and foundations for a great building.
1t had to be done before the super
structure could begin to rear It's walls
toward the skyline. So it has beer with
the Austin mines this summer WORK

great program of production has been
going forward quietly, and with tha'
well directed precision that eliminates

MASONIC IS MAKING A
SUBSTANTIAL ADVANCE

the ground, and the complete outfit now
on hand, the mining work will continue
to be of the highest nature.
The fact that assays ranging from
$50 to 5000 were taken from the sur
face, bears out the opinion that the
Golden Cycle should prove the richest
property in the now proven district of
Masonic.
Work on the Pittsburgh Liberty is go
ing ahead in the same high character of
quartz. The mill, under the manage
ment of William Woodbury., is turning
out a higher per cent of extraction and
larger tonnage. The new cyanide plant
is rapidly assuming shape. A high
grade shipment from the Pittsburg of
20 tons is to be made very shortly.
The Home View tunnel, which is be-
ing driven under Masonic hill, is en-
countering some very fine quartz, and
will undoubtedly be in ore this month.
Many other properties are being devel-
oped, and with what is in sight and the
fact that the camp has a dividend
payer, Masonic will be one of the live
Hest camps in western Nevada before
another summer rolls around.
Ore lately discovered on the Golden
Cycle groupings 50 closely resembles
the high grade ores Of the Pittsburg-
Liberty that they cannot be segregated
when placed in the same sack, showing
that the same class Of high grade exists
on both properties.
