Below Zero at Toaopah

For the first time on record during
the history of Tonopah. the thermome
ter Saturday night dropped down to the
zero point. The temperature was
noticed on Il downtown thermometer
when at the same time the register at
the United States weather bureau an
nounced the fact that the temperature
WAS lG degrees above zero. The differ
ence is accounted for by the fact that
the instrument ut the weather bureau
is sheltered.
Fears are entertained for the belated
prospectors i'll the outlying districts, us
many are known to be unprepared for
the intense cold. While the weather
report for today predicts snow; this will
probably prove wrong, for according to
the old-timers the snow will not fall
when the weather is so cold.-Bonanza.

Eiy's Copper Output

The output of the Steptoe Valley
smelling Co. at McGill for the month
OF November was the largest ever pro.
duced by this Company. Between j
and three-fourths and six million pounds
OF blister copper We're turned out ut the
converter. In the ncighborhood of 100,
600 tons of ore was received at the con.
centrator from the steam shovel nit at
Copper Flat.
The amount of ore received is NOT as
large as some previous months. Sec.
ondaries being put through the con
verterS is what swelled the output of
blister copper.
This production for November in
large measure Anticipates the promise
made of six million pounds production
beginning with JIIuary. The present
month of DcccInb.. will readily exceed
November production and it will not bc
surprising if January shows nearer
seven million pounds output than the
promised 81 six.-Whitc Pine New.
