The DAY AFTER
WAS DISASTROUS
To The Miners

Three of the miners of the Belmont
mine met with accidents yesterday,
but fortunately none were serious.
Dave Bell, shift boss, while in a
stope between the 500 and 900 level
stepped on loose rock and fell about
seventy-fve feet to the bottom. He
suffered number of cruises and lac
erations, and when taken to the Min
ers' hospital had thirteen stitches
taken in cut on his head. His
escape from death is considered mir
aculous for the stope is nearly per-
pendicular
A miner named Aleck Marcovich
was struck in the back by falling
stone and had to be taken to the hos
pital. He escaped without any bones
being broken.

A. 5. AVERY Set
FREE BY JUDGE
theron Stevens

Upon a writ of habeas corpus is
sued by the supreme court of the
state of Nevada, A. S. Avery was
taken from the Nye county Jail in
Tonopah Saturday morning, taken be.
fore Judge Theron Stevens, of the
district court at Goldfield, and set
free, on the ground that the Nye
county district court had no jurisdic-
ton in the case, and had no power to
sentence Avery to jail.
Avery, who has conducted a second
hand shop in Tonopah, was indicted
by the Nye county grand jury for
receiving stolen goods, felony. The
jury which heard the case convicted
him of misdemeanor, as the value
of the stolen goods received by him
was less than $50. The position
taken by Judge Stevens that a mis-
demeanor charge can only be heard
in the court of justice of the peace
the district court having had no jur
isdiction in the case.

Weeks Developments in
The Mines of Tonopah

Work has been resumed in the west
drift on the Nevada vein and there is
about twelve inches of good milling
ore in sight In the Slopes back of
this drift the vein has been opened
up for 200 feet and shows the vein to
be between one and two feet in width
and fair grade of milling ore with
streaks of high grade.
On the 1000 level the south vein
in the west drift is now in 296 feet
and shows three feet of low grade
ore. The west drift on the Occidental
ledge is out seventy-five feet and
shows about two feet of 10y grade
quartz with punches of high grade.
The quartz is of an amethyst color
and is somewhat crystalized in form.
The east crosscut from A vein is in
500 feet and has advanced thirty-six
feet during the week. The face of
the drift still shows stringers of
quartz in the porphyry formation.
Raise No. l on the 100 level is
up seventy feet All the ore taken
from this ledge, which is about eight
feet wide, is sent to the mill.

NIIZPAH.

The total amount of work done in
yer Top mines amounted to 474k
feet OF this 1921 was done in the
Silver Top and the balance, 292 feet,
in the Mizpah The diamond drill
only traversed sixteen feet owing to
caving This work will be somewhat
retarded, as about zoo feet will have
to be cased before the drill can be
operted again. The prospect drift on
the 1900 level is in l40 feet, and is
still in the same formation.
In the westerly workings of the
$40 level of the Silver Top the mill
ing ore is still being taken out Drift
ing is being continued.
Ore of a good milling quality is
still being taken from the east work
ings of the fifth level, along the Miz-
pah fault.
West of the 500 work is being done
towards the Red Plume shaft They
are now about 200 feet southeast Of
the shaft and l. they continue to hold
the same course the drift will pass
about 200 feet south of the Red
Plume workings. This is the farthest
west that ore has been developed on
the Mizpah ledge and they now have
four feet of good milling grade
The ledge on the 500 level of the
Red Plume has made no change and
raise has been started on the ledge
and is now up fifteen feet. A con-
nection will be made with the Tono-
pah Extension property from this
level. The scene of this ledge is
about 1000 feet from the shaft and
the air is not of the best A drift
will have to be driven about eighty
feet before the connection can be
made.

COUNTY GUESTS
WERE WELL FED

Sheriff Owens rendered the prison
ers at the county Jail one of the finest
Christmas dinners that was served in
this city on that day. Through the
generosity of the sheriff the inmates
of the county bastile enjoyed every
thing that is usual for that holiday.
There. was turkey with cranberry
sauce, mashed potatoes, caulifiower,
mince pie, plum pudding, nuts, cake,
candy, fruit and cigars.
The Salvation army lassies were
the guests of honor, having been ask
ed by the prisoners to preside at the
table, and following the spread there
were songs and recitations. The
meal lasted for over two hours ant
the prisoners enjoyed themselves tC
the limit.

MIDWAY.

The work of following up the
stringers in the southern portion of
the Midway ground is progressing
rapidly and new strikes of good i'm
portance are liable to be made any
day. There is a large section of
ground in this territory that has
never been explored and the pros
poets for new finds are excellent.
On the 200 level good punches of
ore have been encountered in the
south crosscut and the work of driv-
ing the drift ahead is being pushed
There has been two crosscuts driver
across the vein matter and the Width
between the hanging and foot wall:
is about eighteen feet. A number o
stringers were cut in these crosscut
that showed good values.
On the 300 400, 500 and 600-foo
levels there is considerable prospec
work being done and number of tn
workings have good values in sight

The ELKS MADE
The KIDLETS
HAPPY FRIDAY

The Elks' Christmas tree made a
great number of the little tots OF
Tonopah happy. The tree was plac-
ed in the gymnasium of the volunteer
fire department and was simply load
ed with presents. Santa Claus was
in attendance and had present and
bag of candy for every child that call
ed.
The Tonopah brass band, in honor
of the occasion, volunteered its serv-
ices and played the entire afternoon
from the balcony of the building.
There was also great number of the
grown ups who visited the tree and
paid their respects to Santa, but the
best they received was lemon.
The children of Tonopah were not
alone in receiving presents from the
Elks, for in every town in the United
States where there is an Elks lodge
presents were distributed.

EXTENSION.

The drift that was started some
weeks ago on the 35-foot level is
now nearly completed. 1t is in dis
lance of go feet This drift will be
used to handle the huge dump of mill
ore of which there is 80, 1000 tons, and
when the mill is built it will greatly
facilitate the matter of handling the
ore. A stope will be started and the
ore will be carried again to the sur
face and sent directly to the mill
The building of the mill is now al
most assured and it is believed that
orders will be sent out from New
York before long ordering the work
of construction to start
On the 400 level work was started
yesterday to develop the south vein
which has every indication of eventu-
ally proving to be valuable ore body
The south crosscut from the west enc
of the mine is now IN $40 feet and i.
in lode porphyry and has exposed
many stringers of quartz. The indi
cations here are very favorable fo
the encountering of ore
The west drift from the main nortl
crosscut on the no level has driftet
} on a large body of quartz which wa
recently encountered on the hort
and south fault and they will nov
crosscut to the north to pick up tn
vein on the other side of the fault
The crosscut is in about sixty-fiv
feet.

WEST END.

Owing to the fact that the last two
days have been used in overhauling
the machinery and making much
needed repairs, there has not been
the usual amount of progress made
in the workings of the West End. The
work being done at present is in the
line of development work and only
enough ore to pay the mining ex-
penses is being extracted.
On the 15O-foot level the ledge,
which has been about four feet in
width is now widening and at one
place shows six feet of excellent mill
ing ore. The body of ore in the drift
twenty-five feet west of the shaft on
the 400 is also increasing in width.
In the stope west of the shaft on this
level there is an increase in the size
creasing. In the north drift from No.
raise, which is situated 100 feet
east of the shaft and which was
started at a point thirty feet above
the level is now in twenty-five feet.
A number of fine stringers have
showed up in the quartz and it is the
expectation that these stringers will
develop into larger bodies of ore.
The total amount of ore shipped tc
the Belmont mill at Millers during
the week amounted to $50 tons.

MACNAMARA.

Owing to the shortness of the week
the shipments from the MacNamara
have not been so great as heretofore,
and but five cars of ore. 270 tons,
were sent to the Montana mill for
treatment. This ore was extracted
from the west drift and stope on the
$50 level, from stope No. 2 on the
275 level, from the stope above the
800 level at point 700 feet west of
the shaft, from the crosscut on the
275 level between Slopes No. and 2.
together with the upraise west of No
2 Slope, also contributing to slight
extent.
The crosscut on the PTS is getting
into high grade ore and shows at
present eighteen inches of very high
grade ore with heavy sulphides that
will go several hundred dollars per
ton.
Development work is being prose
cuted in two places on the PTS level,
on the west of the 200 level and also
on the west of the 300 level. An in
termediate drift was started this
week from point in the so-called
Apex raise No. l fifty feet south OF
the shaft and twenty feet above the
800 level. This raise has encounter.
ed a five-foot vein and the drift is be.
ing started with the expectation OF
reaching good ore.
A great deal of development work
is now under way and this will ulti
mately add to the output of the mine
The property has never looked better
than at the present and with the ex
tensive development work under wa,
there should be something doing be
fore long.

BELMONT.

During the past week the work in
the Belmont has progressed 134 feet.
The new ledge which was encounter
ed on the 1856 No. level has made
no change and still retains it's values.
The work of sinking in the winze on
this level will be started again and
continued until the 100 level is
reached.
The south vein of the west drift on
the 900 level has progressed twelve
feet and is now in 296 feet. The face
shows two feet of fair grade ore. The
slopes on this vein are taking out the
usual amount of high grade milling
ore. They have been opened up for a
distance of $50 feet and show the
ledge to be about three feet in width.

So the historians say stanza twelve
couldn't be true, granted any amount Of
poetic license. He certainly never did
come 10 the bridge in Concord town" as
the clock struck . or at any other early
morning hour.
Having completely taken the wind from
Longfellow's sails, the prose letter ends
the midnight ride, and goes into great de-
tail on a subject not connected with the
tradition.
However, the historians are not alto
gether satisfied with the Revere letter, for
he wrote it in 1898. twenty-four years after
the ride, and, Conceding his honesty, his
memory might easily have been bad. Con-
sidering the many doubts which the learned
have come to have Of Paul Revere's ride.

letter Paul assures DR.. Belnap that the
horse, though belonging to the deacon, was
a good one, The historians do not raise
any great objection TO the Revere docu-
ment so far, but it incCnsiderately de-
stroys the first six stanzas Of Longfel-
lows poem.
While Deacon Larkin's horse was being
saddled, Revere met Richard Devens Of
the committee Of safety, who told him
that ten British officers mad been seen
going up the Lexington road at shutdown
This supports Mr.. Benjamin's argument
that the Gerry letter shows thai the Com
mittee Of Safety knew the danger three
hours before Paul Revere took 10 night
riding.
Continuing his account, Revere says he
saw two British officers, and after leading
one into a clay pit, he turned into the
MedfOrd road to avoid the other, and
alarmed almost every house to Lexing-
ton" There he found Hancock and Adams
at the Rev. Mr.. Clarke's, and there I'VE
refreshed ourselves and half an hour
later set out for Concord to protect the
stores, This prose account knocks out
LOngfellow's eighth and eleventh stanzas.
Worse, however, is to come. Paul Revere
himself doesn't profess to have reached
Concord. When half way there, the Brit
ish officers captured him, took from him
Deacon Larkin's good horse, and mounted
him on the WORKOUT. nag Of a British
sergeant. They also addressed language C

him do il.
After the learned professors had declared
their distrust OF poetic history. they did
manage to find a plain prose version Of
Paul Revere among the old manuscripts
OF the Massachusetts Historical society
papers. IL proved TO be a letter written by
Paul Revere in 1898 to their secretary. DR..
Belnap, Right then and there Paul, as
Longfellow wrote him, and Paul, as he
wrote himself, began to disagree.
The first trouble was over the lantern to
be hung In the old North church for a sig
nal light. Even now historians are not
decided whether the tablet hung in Boston

right church, or whether II was Robert
Newman or John Pulling who climbed
the tower Of the old North church by tho
wooden stairs with stealthy tread to the
belfry chamber overhead" Paul just calls
him a friend, and so does Longfellow.
Having established the fact that there
was a church somewhere and a lantern
