ON BUTTE ELY.


All of Giroux churn drills continue
on Butte Ely ground, conducting the
rapid exploration of that property
which will have large part in the
acceptance or rejection of the option
in September. Results of the week
do not appear to have been favorable,
Judging from the material which is
lying around the holes from the
cores. But one good hole appears to
have been had, this being the first
that was put down. The second was
fair. The others have evidently been
very lean. Official statements are
not being made as to findings. Much
ground remains to be tested and it
may be found during later weeks
that the holes that have failed to
make good happened to have dropped
a little off the ore zone. At any rate
Encouragement as to the ground is
not yet warranted, though the out
look might be brighter.

During the week the Star Pointer
motor parts were got to the shaft

the ore line at which they were de-
livered a couple of years ago, and
are now being set up. The trans
former house is about finished and
it is understood that the work of
putting the entire surface plant at
the shaft in shape for use will be
continued steadily ahead until finish
ed. AS has been previously explain
ed, this work is not being done with
expectation of putting Star Pointer
shaft and Ruth mine in commission.
for there IS no likelihood of this ore
output being required for years, but
simply for the purpose of getting
things in place and in order. Until
Superintendent Vanderhoeff recently
got his machine shop going at Star
Pointer, the work that is now in
hand could not be undertaken to adj
vantage, and as there was no need
for it's completion until it could be
done to the best advantage, it was
simply let alone. While the district
would naturally like to see the Ruth

THE FIFTH UNIT.

While all the plans are prepared
for the fifth unit of the concentrator
at McGill, the surveys completed n
matters in such shape that forces
could begin with the breaking OF
ground this morning We're the order
given to go ahead, there is small ex-
recitation of immediate word to pro
coed. The likelihood is that the
order for construction of the new
unit will be held up until the annual
meeting OF the company this ran
when the matter will be given 10 the
stockholders to pass upon, as last
year. That the unit will then be
ordered built there is practically no
doubt. and the late fall and winter
are pretty near sure to see the hfth
crowding through just as the fonrth
unit was put through the excavation
and foundation stages of last fall
and winter Meantime they are CIV
ing fine demonstration that the
fourth unit was needed and that it
was a very profitable investment.

meantime will be equal to all re-

WILL HAVE THE MATERIALS.
Large quantities of supplies have
been arriving for the Giroux and it
is evident that they are going to have
plenty on hand with which to keep
their work moving rapidly at all
stages. Such of these supplies as
will be needed at comparatively early
date at the new shaft or the Alpha
are now being hauled by team.
Meanwhile tie survey for the new
railroad, which will go direct to the
Alpha and the new Giroux shaft, is
being urged along as fast as possible
and it is expected that before long
they will have rail down on the
grade, When standard cars will be
showed direct from the line of the
Nevada Northern to the unloading
place, making a very material saving
in time and labor over the method
followed to date.

The leading movement In the camp

encouraging to the belief that the
winter will see a great deal OF this
sort of valuable activity. On Cop
permines, Hidden Treasure, Ely Calu-
met and~other properties where leas-
ers have commenced work in the last
few months, paying results are be-
ing obtained. The lead-silver veins
being worked on Hidden Treasure
and Coppermines are not new In the
camp, having produced and shipped
to the coast years ago providing
work and income for the district at
odd times in the struggles of the
early DAYS that had large part in
keeping it alive against the coming
of the big day when it gained
recognition. as a great copper camp
and induced the coming of the mil
lions which have since been put into
it's development, to the end of cash
ing it's wonderful wealth in the red
metal. However, the resumption of
work on the lead-silver veins of the
camp has revived among not a few
