Dunn Glen

1t seems to be a fact that work will
soon be commenced on what is known
as the Lang Syne mine in the Dun
Glen district, few miles from Mill
City, this county. Very many years
ago, to be exact, thirty wears. the
Dun Glen district was considered to
be by far the most promising mining
region IN Nevada, and in that day
several hundred men were at work in
in and around that section. Some ex-
eeedlngly good ore was discovered,
enough, in fact, to warrant the install
lation of milling and cyanide plant,
at Mill City. on the Southern Pacific
railroad
Prospectors and miners of expert
ence have always maintained that the
Dun Glen range was one of the rich
est in Nevada, for everywhere the
development has been legitimately
prospected, big showings have been
the result. Further, the outcrop,
which can be traced for miles on the
surface and carrying very large values
offers a field of exploration, proba-
bly, unequaled in the west.
The Lang Syne was worked to a
considerable extent above the water
level, though below that point no
work whatever has been done. The
main ledge has not been developed at
all. Many years ago the property
was patented, but from one reason
and anothr, principally form the fact
of the volume Of water on the lower

w. II. Kent, prominent Nevada
mining operator has secured capital
with which to operate this PROPOSE
tion on a plan commensurate with its
real value. An air compressor and
machine drills are now at Mill City,
and the first work will consist of

SNOWFALL IN THE
MOUNTAINS

The amount of snowfall this season
is generally equal to, or less than, the
average amount. This is true in
practically all districts The amount,
as compared with the corresponding
date last year, is much less, there be-
ing only a few stations which report
ii to be as great. Last year, however
ever the fall of snow was unusually
large. A considerable proportion of
the precipitation has been in the form
of rain. This, together with the feet
that the temperature generally has
been above the normal, has prevented
the accumulation of any very large
amounts. In the Humboldt basin the
snow averages about two feet deep
near the SUBMITS of the mountains,
and is about the same depth in the
Walker and Reese drainage areas In
the Truckee basin it is about five feet
deep near the mountain tops.
1t is little too early to form
reasonably reliable estimate of the
supply of water for the coming sea-
son.
