PROMINENT ENGINEER
ENTHUSES OVER YERINCTON
One Of the Most Conservative
of Miring Engineers, Afer Devoting
Nearly Year Studying the Copper
Deposits Of This District Grants
Interview to Newspaper Men
of Reno.

The following is taken from the Reno
Journal of Dec. 10th, and coming from
Capt. MacVichie should be of interest to
all our readers:
Speaking yesterday afternoon of the
Yerington mining district in general,
and more particularly of the article in
Saturdays Journal. in which some re-
marks of Superintendent Arntz We're
quoted. Duncan Macvichie, consulting
engineer for the Nevada Douglas Copper
company, has some interesting things
to Say
Mr. MacEichie, who has been in Yer
ington and Reno since he arrived from
Salt Lake about a week ago in company
with George Gum, general manager OF
the Mason Valley Mines company, is
mining engineer known all over this
country and many others He has de-
voted great deal of his career to cop
per its geology and metallurgy. and has
visited officially every copper district in
the United States and Canada, as well
as many i'll other countries.
The last thing that he had to say yes
terday, which is worthy of first quotation
was this this
You may quote me as saying that the
Yerington district is one of the best
copper districts of which know. And
when say that, bear in mind that there
is no copper district in this country or
Canada which have not visited in an
official capacity"
The expert was asked as to the pro-
posed smelter, and as to the probability
of its its erection.
THAT there will be smelter in the
district. " he replied, lis beyond ques-
ton. In all probability the Mason VAL
ley Mines people will be It's builders.
But. if they don't put it up, the Nevada
Douglas people or someone else will,
The Mason Valley and Bluestone prop
critics have big tonnage to keep a
smelter busy.
I'VE don't need two smelters down
there -one railroad and one smelter
ought to be enough. The site under
consideration, about a mile east Of Wa
huska, is almost ideal for the purpose.
Great springs, the rights to which the
Mason Valley people secured about a
year ago, will provide ample water
supply

TRAGIC DEATH OF
YERINCTON
MAN

The snow god has claimed an
other victim and in the canyo on
above Lundy the remains of a
poor prospector will lie Until the
summer sun dissipates the ava.
lanChe. In his search for gold L.
A. H Harrington, a mining man, has
paid the penalty of venturing OH
the hillsides and up canyon
after heavy fall of snow.
Mr.. Harrington arrived here
last fall to look after mining prop
critics for SOME Chicago capitalists,
spent some time on Virginia
Creek and afterwards went to the
Lundy district. He took an op-
ton ON some claims on Lee Vim
ing Creek and returning to Lundy
ON the 4th OF December expressed
his intention of examining the
Regan property, adjoining the
May Lundy, a portion of the es-
tate of the Crystal Lake mining
He left his cabin against the ad
vice of r. T. Pierce aud others,
and started to go to the property
AS he did not return
a searching party started to hunt
him up, and after seeking for the
past week, have finally given up
all hope.
The relief party found his
tracks where he had left the cabin
aud followed them to an immense
snow slide, which cut off the trail.
From every direction all attempt
has been made to discover his
W and the search has
been given up.
Mr.. Harrington's home is at Be-
lott, Kansas, where his family re-
sides. s.-Bodie Miner.
Mr. Harrington had some cop
per claims in this district and was
well thought of by all who knew
him.

There is no question in the world
that the yerington district has good
copper mines. Not speaking of the
porphyry mines such as Ely's pro-
ducers. for instance but OF higf-grade
lode veins. know of no district any
where that can beat it.
The great question i'll copper mining
and trertment is the cost of putting
copyer into New York City. You can
mine ore containing twenty-five pounds
of copper per ton from a load vein Just
as cheaply as you can mine ore CARRYING
one-h hundred pounds uf copper per ton.
The cost of converting is the question.
1t will cost. anywhere, from one-lhalf
cent to six cents per pound to convert
the product AT this cost, tile pounds
of copper per ton of the yerington ores
will enable the district to compete on am
even scale with any district in the
country.
Whether the Yerington smelter
would ship the output as matte or as
blister copper would be entirely oues-
tion as to whether the refining plants in
Utah and other neighboring districts
needed the iron i'll copper matte. The
cost of turning matte into blister conner
would run from three .eights to fve-
eights OF cent per pound. depending
on quantity of output If other districts
needed the iron in Yerington mates
enough to pay good price for it, that
would balance the higher freight costs
involved in shipping matte Instead Of
the purer blister copper, and the saving
would offset the expense of keeping
converter crew busy. The thing can be
done economically and profitably from
any point of view
Mr.. MacVichie is one of the valuable
cult of technical mining men who be-
lieve implicitly i'll the value of saving
little and doing much He seldom talks
for publication, and many press rep
resentative can testify both on the
technical and daily press of the country.
And an oyster is actually verbose in
comparison with Mr.. MacVichie's friend
Mr.. Gum. also of Salt Lake.
Herein lies the value of the remark 5
which he was induced to make CON
cerning district only comparatively.

After six innings of excellent ball play
ing, the Colby Maine game of Monday af-
ternoon was called at the opening of the
seventh inning on account of rain, with
the score ! to in favor of Maine. Maine
was at the bat with men on third and
second and two out when time was called
by Umpire Allen. 1t was the first game
for both teams and does not count for the
championship.
a large number of people turned out
Monday afternoon to witness the first
baseball game of the season in this city
and until the game was called they Were
not disappointed with the style of playing
of either team. Maine scored her only
run in the first inning, and after that was
easily retired by the excellent fielding of
the Colby team. Colby had men on bases
several times but were only able to get as
far third base.
Michaud, the Freshman pitcher, was
chosen to start the game and by his eX-
cellent work remained until the last He
is looked upon as a find by Coach Nc

three hits were made off his delivery and
these were well scattered. Lander, an

Pine Tree 10.

Portland, Nc, April 20.-Playing under
conditions that made anything like real

feated Pine Tree in the opening game of
the season at Pine Tree park Monday
afternoon by the score of l. to 10. The
game was called in the seventh inning
on account of rain with Bowdoin at the
bat.
Considering the raw. cold weather and
the fact that the grounds were in such
sloppy condition. especially in the out
field, that the fielders could not cover any
ground or get any footing. the exhibition
was fully as good as could be expected
and there was a good sized crowd of fans
in attendance. who lost no opportunity to
shCw their enthusiasm at the occasional
brilliant work.
Pop Williams was on the firing line for
Pine Tree and Harris was sent to the
slab for Bowdoin. but both twirlerS were
not so hard hit as the score would seem
to indicate. for with water standing in
the outfie1d any ball that was batted to
the garden unless it happened to drop
directly in fielder's hands was almost
doomed to land safe. Neither pitcher cut
loose to any great extent, being content
for the most part to try and locate the
plate with a slippery ball and save their
salary wings as much as possible
