POWER FOR MANHATTAN
AND ROUND MOUNTAIN

Long distance power for Manhattan
and Round Mountain is to be supplied
soon by the Nevada California Power
company. AS soon as the plant at Bish-
op creek is increased to a sufficient ca
pacity to transmit the amount of power
required such extension will be made.
1t will also be furnished for Hornsilver
and other camps in the southern coun-
try.
+. b. Meeching, representing the
company, has been at Round Mou.tain
and Manhattan this week examining
the ore bodies and making preliminary
contracts to furnish power to mine
had found many large bodies of ore av-
eraging from $12 to $25 and with
cheaper power they can be worked at a
profit. He ascertained that ore now
being worked at high milling rates is
yielding a profit, and states that cheap
er power will make the whole camp,
through it's many bodies OF low grade,
a big paying proposition.
Delos A. Chappell, president of the
company, together with Mr.. Lawrence
C. Phipps, who is connected with the
company, have also been in Round
Mountain during the week and have
made careful estimates of the amount
of business obtainable.
While, of course, they do not state
definitely at the moment that the power
will be brought in, it is more than
likely that they will act favorably in
the matter, and, in that event, it will
probably take about ninety days to in
stall.

OLD SHELTER
TO BE RE0PENED

After a lapse of hve years, during
wnicn ITS STOCK and cnimneys nave been
a u OF failure, tine copper and
lead smeIter OF the Boston Electro
Iytic kenning company, one mile east
OF Reno, mas beer leased under option
by the Nevada Commonwealth mines
and will soon begin operations on a
modern basis.
This remodeled smelter will be
unique in that it will be the first in the
state to treat zinc ores. The progress
of development of the Commonwealth
properties has been brought to a stand
still, owing to the lack of facilities for
treating this metal, which is a large
part OF complex ore of the mine.
Not only will the new plant produce
zine in metallic fern, but it will turn
out zine white and supply part, at
least, of the coast trade in this most
valuable pigment which gradually is
s~upplanting white lead in the paint
trade.
The plant already is equipped with al
10 and an eight-s.amp mill, which prob
ably will be run on custom ores for the
benefit Of the smaller mines within
shipping distance OF Reno. and which
now arc unworked because of the lack
of milling facilities.
Owing to the increased demand for
arsenic, this metal, of which the Com
monwcalth ores coptain as much as 10
i,sr cent, will fern quite al item in the
output. To ave the arsenic, plans are
under way which will make this the
model smelter of the world, in that it
will be practically smokeless.
In other smelter regions the arsenic
does not figure in high enough percent
ages in the ores to make the problem
of saving it worth solution. With this
smelter it will be different since the
plan of the company is to save every
thing in the Gre, even to the small per-
centage of cobalt it contains if this
last metal can be separated at a profit.
1t is the intention of the company,
according to G. w. Clap, who has com
pleted the negotiation for this prop.
erty, after a years work, to run it as
a inc-arsenic-lead plant rather than as
a copper smelter, since a plant to take
care of the copper output of the mine
is planned for Carson City.
The only work the local plant prob
ably will do with copper is the refining
of the matter AMI this will be done by
electricity, according to present plans.
Some 20) hose power is available for
the refining of copper and the opera
ton of tic machinery. and as it is a
water power supplied by the Truckee
river, the etst of electricity will be cut
to a low figure according to the pre-
liminary survey tae company has made
of the feel!
The smelter and various refining
plants will employ several score of
skilled and uns1i!ied laborers and will
add materially to the pay roll of the
city's industries.

BuLLFRoa MAYFLowER

The Mayfiower has perfected its
plans to erect a fve-stamp mill. Recent
developments in this mine have dis
closed a wonderfully rich body of CON-
mereial ore, the shoot being over eleven
feet wide and averaging better than
$50 to the ton. There is no question
but what this shoot is continuous for a
big distance, and the Mayfower will in
time be n of the p~henomenally big

night.
About dusk he was sitting at the
window reading when all of sudden
there was a sharp click in the direc-
tion of the window and simultaneous
ly whizzing sound as of a bullet
passing near his head.
If there was any uncertainty as to
what caused the noise all doubt was
dispelled by the discovery of a small
clean cut bullet hole in the window
pane.
Where the shot came from or who
fired it constitutes very deep mys-
