BRYCE TURNER
after LONG TRIP
RETURNS HERE
FORMER TONOPAH MINING MAN
PASSES THROUGH THIS
CITY.

Bryce Turner, formerly superin-
tendent of the Tonopah Mining COM
pany's property in this city, was an
arrival Sunday morning from Cobal
Canada. He departed yesterday
morning for Goldfield and the other
southern camps, where he will look
the situation over.
Since leaving Tonopah, Mr. Tur.
ner has travelled quite extensively.
He visited the larger camps of the
northern part of the country ana
went as far as Cobalt, Canada, which;
camp he says will have wonderful
production this year.
After visiting the Nevada camps,
he will go to Arizona where he has
some interests. He was elated over
the conditions here in Tonopah. He
pronounces it one of the greatest
camps in the country and showing
every sign Of continued prosperity.
He has been absent about year.

GEORGES CANYON
HAS APPEARANCE
OF A winner
o. b. NAY HAS MUCH CONF.
DENCE IN FUTURE OF THE
DISTRICT.

If Georges canyon lives up to the
expectations of o. B. Nay, those in
terested there should have no fear
concerning it's future. For several
weeks news of most encouraging
nature has been coming from there
Mining men are particularly i'm
pressed with the different showings.
They are willing to invest there and
are getting in as fast as opportun-
tiles present themselves. Leasers
are eager to get in and why should
they not be. Unlike a great many
localities, the leaser is able to start
operations on ore. He does not
have to go after it blindly in the
hopes of hitting something at depth
Mr.. Nay. states that work on the
new road will begin at an early date
and be carried to completion as fast
as possible. The commissioners
have allowed $3.50 toward the ex-
pense and while this sum will not go
very far it will help a little. The
property owners in the district have
agreed to cooperate. They will
stand in to a man and give money
and labor to make the road one Of
the best in the state.
A recent strike made on the
ground of Fancher and Smith has
created little excitement. The
Miles-Meyers lease has opened up
ore that runs $4,000 in gold and
silver. Another assay of the quartz
showed a value of $628.36 in the
precious metals. :
A townsite has been surveyed.
Lots will be on sale early in Sep
TENDER and will be handled by Will
liam Mikulich. Undoubtedly there
will be quite demand for real es.
tate there as the opinion of the dis
trict is one of the very best.
The operators there are going at
the matter in business-like man
ner. They are not trying to create
a boom on no pair, but are at work
opening up their holdings before
saying to the world that they have
the goods. They are counting the
confidence of the public which in the
end will win for them

tom COLEHAN
WRITES A letter
FROM MEXICO

Tom Colehan, pioneer of Tono-
pah and one of the best known men
in this section, writes to A. R. Gra-
ham from Guymas, Mexico, in which
locality Mr.. Colehan is now pros
pecting.
The letter is quite an interesting
one. 1t tells of the trip into that
country, describing the heat as in
tense and the hardships on account
thereof as almost unbearable. IL
the Salton sea, which is many feet
below the level of the ocean the
greatest misery from the heat was
encountered. A hot rain set il
which came down in torrents. Mr.
Colehan says they must have taken
the nozzle off the heavenly sprink-
ler," it came down so hard.
His letter further states that the
government is having considerable
trouble with the Indians which in
turn has hampered mining to a large
degree. In addition, he describes
the political pot as still bubbling,
He says the jails are filled with
soldiers and that police are every
where in evidence. His description
of the country traversed en- route
there is one filled with prophecies
for the mineral possibilities of the
future.
Mr.. Colehan would not advise any
American to go there looking fo.'
business opportunities. He says the
people are cheap to a miserly ex-
tent. He will remain where he is
until January 20, at which time he
will set out for other sections, if in
the meantime he does not strike
it."

INSTRUCTIONS TO JURY
TAKE UP MUCH TIME

1t required all of yesterday for
the attorneys in the Ford case to
agree upon what instructions should
be given to the jury. A session Of
the court was held last evening, but
even then the matter was not dis
posed of. 1t is more than probable
that the arguments of counsel will
begin this morning, the court hav-
ing adjourned until 8 o'clock this a.
m. 1t is figured that at least seven
hours will be required for counsel
to present its version of the evil
dence and the case. Therefore, it is
not likely that the fate of Ford will
repose in the hands of the twelve
men until late tonight.

SHOSHONE Mill
IS Treating 2l5
TONS PER DAY

The Shoshone mill and mine of
Rhyolite has established another
record tonnage for the month of
July. This was done despite a loss
of two and half days operations
about the fourth of the month. APP
proximately $500 tons of ore were
handled through the mill in the
remaining twenty-eight days of run
ming.
A shipment of bullion was made
from the property on Wednesday of
this week. 1t comprised about 12,-
500 ounces and represents one days
grinding for every 1000 ounces. The
value of Shoshone bullion has been
announced before as a little better
than 81 per ounce.
The new Chilli mill is proving
valuable adjunct to the plant. It is
operating without a hitch and seems
to fill the bill.
Deep mining starts in the Sho-
shone within a short time. The
pumps were put into commission to-
day drawing off the water in the
bottom of the shaft to enable the
miners to get at the 700-foot level.
The first exploration of this level
will commence as soon as the water
is out. There are about thirty-five
feet of water in the shaft, bringing
the water level up to the 665-foot
point. This is the accumulation of
many months and does not bespeak
a dangerous water flow. It has per-
culated through from below in q
gradual way. The sold carries much
water, but it is anticipated that

PUDDY GRIMES
SAYS LAW WAS
NOT FOLLOWED
RECORDER SAYS HE WILL NOT
AUDIT BILL OF THE
EXPERT.

1t appears that this county's
troubles have just begun so far as
they concern the action of the COM
missioners in employing a firm of
San Francisco accountants to ex-
pert the books of this county Yes
terday County Recorder Puddy
Grimes informed the firm of Lester,
Herrick and Herrick, the account
ants, by mail that he would not
audit the bill presented by that firm
for services rendered in delving into
the details of the offices of this
county.
Mr. Grimes acted upon the
grounds that the work was not only
unsatisfactory, but under the law he
could not draw a warrant for the
amount, the contract itself being in
strict violation of the law in so Ear
as it involved a sum in excess of
$500, namely $4,000.
The commissioners before adj
journing took no action in the prem
ises other than to send commune
cation to the Californians calling for
certain explanations regarding the
inaccuracies of the report.
But the real question is: Was it
or was it not contract? There
hinges the issue. The action of the
commissioners was taken upon the
advice of the district attorney, it is
said. That official is of the opinion
that the services performed did not
come under the head of contract.
the work being from day to day at
a certain wage per diem Recorder
Grimes differs with the legal advi-
ser of the board. He says in I'M
mistakable language that a contract
was entered into, contract in every
particular contrary to the law. He
says he will sign no warrant that at
best calls for waste of the peo-
pies money. He also says that
there was plenty of home talent
that could have done better job
than the individual sent here from
California.
The question is one of intricacies
and worry. No doubt the commits
sioners are scratching their heads
and wishing that it was over with.
if indeed they do not wish that it
had never commenced
The allowing of the bill will I'M
questionably prevent law suit. The
accountant firm will not let the
chance of getting over $4,000 slip
by without fight, 1t cannot be
questioned that it acted in good
faith. Then, upon whom does the
responsibility rest?

VIM. MIKuLICH'
Sent PROSPECTOR
TO OPENING
TRUSTED MAN WIRES FOR MORE
MONEY BEFORE REACH
ING THE FRONT.

1t was in the good times of Man
haitian. Even the brokers there at
that time were possessed of consid-
cradle coin of the realm. Among the
number was William Mikulich, who
could write his check for most any
old sum.
Shortly before the opening of the
Walker Indian reservation, Miku-
Itch was approached one day by a
man who wanted a stake to attend
the opening. The agreement was
entered into without any waste If
words. The man was given enough
to satisfy anyone who really meant
business.
But 1t was far cry between Man.
haitian and the reservation. Our
man got as far as Tonopah when he
proceeded to spend the grubstake.
He managed. however, to hold out
enough to get as far as Schurz.
There he was stranded.
A day or so before the reserva-
ton was thrown open, in the Man.
haitian stock exchange room many
brokers were gathered. Walker res
ervation was all the talk. Mr.. Mix
ulich was asked II he had received
any word from the man he had sent
out.
"Yes. I have" replied Mikulich.
He opened and read It to the crowd.
It was dated Schurz. and said: I'm

ton we were escorted to the head
of the grand stairs where we
saw the great $4,000 Blashfield

represents the tide of civilization
moving westward. The lunettes

piece. From the second floor we
took the elevator to the dome
which is 1925 feet from the ground
Here we had a magnificent view
of the city and the surrounding
country. The city reminds one
of large park with avenues and
houses here and there on each
side.
From the Capitol we went to
the Historical Building which
cost $500, 900 and contains a col
lection of historical documents,
articles associated with the early
history of the state, portraits Of
the builders of Iowa, war relics,
and original manuscripts of ma
tional characters. We then visl.
tied the handsome Pu olic Library

and see. We heard some very
good music and saw some of the
everyday life of Atlantic City re

stead Of Des MONIES.
The weather being very warm,
we decided to spend the remand
er of the day at the parks. The
first one that we VISITED was
Greenwood, which contains 100
acres. Here we saw a herd of
buffalo, elk, and a few smaller
wild animals. There were pavll
ions where people could rest or
read, and lagoon where others
could go boating. We also saw
splendid floral gardening. From
there we went to Ingersoll Park
for the evening, where we heard
excellent music by the leading
orchestra of Des Moines. At
nine o'clock we left the city feel
ing that we were we'll repaid fer
the days tramping.
