they included his name in the location
notice.
Comstock' s net gains, as the result of
the subsequent development of the won
derful field, were never accurately
known, but they are supposed to be not
in excess of twelve or fifteen thousand
dollars. When he sold out, he invested
his money in mercantile operations
which did not flourish he was by no
means a man of business. He was poor
wnen others were accumulating tens OF
millions in Comstock ledge profits.
After years spent in vain efforts to
strike it rich again, Comstock drifted
into Montana. He tarried for a time
in Butte. While there he wrote letters
which are in the files of newspapers
which have their homes far east of the
Rocky mountain region, in which he
spoke with enthusiasm of Montana's
mineral outlook.
But there was nothing in it for Com
stock. He was always queer some
of those who knew him when he was in
Butte suspected that his mental faeul-
ties were impaired. Late in the year
1870 he reached Bozeman. He shared
some of his experiences of the remnant
of the Big Horn expedition. One morn
ing late in 1870, Comstock went out of
the cabin of which he was an occupant,
walked to the rear of a store fronting
ON Main street, drew a revolver and
shot himself in the right temple. He
died penniless. In the Bozcman ceme-
terry q rude fence incloses his grave.

After looking carefully over the stu
alton in this new mining camp, the
writer of this article, like others who
have been here and seen, can come to
but one conclusion, and that is, Ma
tional as a bullion producer is bound to
make good. While the amount Of de-
velopment would not Justify am wild
predictions, the quantity and the quail
ity Of ore now lying on the dumps of
the several leases will go far towards
convincing the most skeptical as to the
future of this camp.
National lies almost in the center of
a mineralized zone, extending some ten
miles in length and about three miles
wide. The formations are andesite,
diabase and %porphyry, with quartz in
the porphyry, carrying gold and silver
values. Some of the baser metals arc
met with, but not enough to materially
interfere with or detraet from the
mother metals, gold and silver.
At the present writing eight leases
are working on what is known ms the
Auto group, and four leases on the
Charleston group, and all are working
in ore. The Walker brothers lease, at
n depth of rs feet, shows splendid
values from top to bottom, with neither
footwall nor hanging wall in sight. On
the dump there is a ear load of high
grade ore ready for shipment.
Lease No. 2, which is being worked
by Jarvis and Fleming, on the same
vein, shows free gold and silver values
which run well into the thousands.
Here the vein is somewhat broken, but

Recent mining gossip includes the
reporter rather the revival of the old
report-that operations on a large scale
are to be resumed on the famous Com
stock lode, says the Anaconda Stand
ard. The world has never lost it's inter
est in the romantic stories eoncering
this famous Nevada bonanza. The his
tory of mining has no chapter more in
teresting. For years the region was the
financial life of the Pacific coast.
Everywhere there have been years of
talk about the fortunes of the Maekays,
the Floods, the Sharons and the Fairs.
The stocks of the Consolidated Vir-
ginia. the Belcher, the California, the
Ophir and other Comstock lode prop
critics ran up into the hundreds of mil
lions. 1t vas figured last in 1874 that
the Ophir had yielded $40, $4,000, the
Gould & Curry more than $l5,0O0,0 900,

MILL PLANNED FOR SKOOKUM
AND GWEENAH PROPERTIES

There will be an effort made to secure
the cooperation of all who are operat-
ing mines or leases in the Gweenah an!
Skookum districts in the erection of n
stamp mill, says the Skookum Times.
Such a mill, it is figured, would give an
immediate market for all ores in the
district and stimulate work in every
direction. The leases and the Lemairc
mine at the Gweenah end of the dis
trict, when working at full capacity,
woul easily keep a 5 or 10-stamp mill
busy from the time such a plant could
be put into commission
The pc. cent? ge of high grade ship
ping ore keeps up on all the properties
that are being worked, but at the same
time there are large dumps of milling
ore accommodating. A market for this
latter product is sadly needed for the
benefit of the entire district and those
who have proposed a mill for the new
camps should not let the matter rest.
The Consolidated Lease
The ore coming from the GweeBah
Consolidated lease workings continues
to make the best showing in the camp.
The stuff hoisted every shift abounds
with native silver specimens and the
shipping ore dump is growing at a
rapid rate. The stockholders in this
leasing company will carry on their
operations without any let up, regard
less of general or local conditions. They
have the ore that will more than repay
all outlay for work, and the showing
in both drifts and the shaft is bette.

than it has been at any previous stage.
The other leases in the north eni of
the district are all looking good and
the operations will go forward through
the summer.
Visit by Goldneldcrs
Messrs. Thompson, Siebert AID See
ley, all well known mining men OF cold
field, will arrive in Skookum in a few
DAYS to look over several properties.
They are already negotiating for tho
purchase of one or two properties of
merit and also contemplate extensive
leasing operations.
Mr.. Thompson has already made one
tour of inspection of the district and
said at that time that it looked good to
him and that he would return later
with the hope of becoming permanently
identified with the camp.
Deal Pending
The outlook is hattering for a deal
to be made involving the transfer OF
the we'll known Kingston mine to a
syndicate of Nevada and eastern capt.
~talists. The mine was recently exported
by j. l.. Freeburn, on whose report the
Silver Peak mine was sold, and his
opinion of the property is very high.
Mr.. Freeburn is acting for Messrs.
Douglass, Kirk & Watt. He will soon
make a more exhaustive examination of
the property and if the result of this is
as favorable as the first, it is more than
probable that a deal will be put through
and another big one in this district put
on the producing list.
