SAYS CARBONATE
HAS LOTS Of ORE
Beaver County Mine Soon to Be
in the Ranks of the
Producers.

AL that has been said Of the Beaver
Carbonate mine at Frisco has not ex-
dggeTated the magnitude or value of its
ore showing, according to the editor of
the Beaver County News, who last week
made q personal examination of the prop
erty. Many tons Of good shipping ore are
on the dump, to which every days work
makes q craditable addition.
About eighteen men are employed at
the Carbonate. their principal employment
being the driving of a raise from the ZOO
to the $50 level, the raise being now with
in $50 feet of the objective point. Work
is not being prosecuted for the purpose of
taking out ore to ship; instead. Superin-
tendent Williams is carrying on extensive
development and getting the mine in shape
for active production as soon as con-
templGJed improvements are made, in
Guiding the building of a large mill. SUI
ficient ore of shipping grade is blocked
out I'm the mine TO keep three shifts work
ing Tor several months, and there seems
to be no end to the ore body.
Just now the old forty-tOn mill, which
is being operated by the leasars, is run
ming through the old tailings and the
leaseTs are making good money out Of
the proposition None Of the ore which
Is being taken from the mine is handled
by this mill, and nothing will probably be
done with this ore until the new mill is
put in.
Altogether, the Beaver Carbonate is
one of the best propositions in the county,
and it viii not be very long until it
stands at the head Of the list as q heavT
producer and a dividend paying property.

Mines and Mining Stocks
PUSH DRILLING IN
BUTTERFLY GROUP
GirouX People Expect to Add
Largely to Steam Shovel
Ground.

Since the COle-Ryan interests obtained
an option on the ground Of the Butte-Ely
Copper company, adjoining the Giroux
estate, a battery Of six churn drills has
been placed at work prospecting the
ground Two holes already completed
show plenty Of ore Of commercial grade,
It is said. Six more holes are being
crowded down as rapidly as possible. The
GtrClIX people unquestiOnably anticipate
adOSls largely to their steam shovel min
ing territory by taking over the Butte
Ely.
Preparations which have been made on
the ground give abundant evidence that
the prospecting campaign with the drills
is to be put through in the shortest pos
slble time, although it is evident that the
ground is not to be skimDed in the mat
ter Of holes, and viii be thoroughly pros
pected. The manner of procedure is along
the same line that was recently followed
by Inspiration In the Globe district IN
prospecting property adjacent to its
original line. It purchased this outside
ground after developing the ore with its
drill holes.
It is now reported from Butte that the
option which is held on Butterfly covers
a period Of sixty DAYS, doubtless dating
were put on the ground. the 9Th Of the
present month. If 50, GirOUX at the pres
ent rate Of progress will get well over the
property with its drills before the ex-
piratton Of the sixty days. While the
deal may be closed on the strength of
findings previous TO that time, the chances
would appear to favor the company tax
ing the full limit
The work of the drills Is now on the
ground adjacent to the new steam shovel
property which the Nevada Consolidated
IS blocking out on the Liberty group, and
which gives every promise Of duplicating
copper Flat, and possibly of going it a
little better in grade OF ore.

MINING CONGRESS
WILL Be SUCCESS
NevadanS Exert Every Effort to
Make Coming Session a
Notable One.

The coming session Of the American
Mining congress, which convenes in Gold
field September q promises to be the
most successful session. both in size Of
attendance and interest. that has ever
been held, IS the opinion OF 7. F. Call
breath, secretary OF the congress, who
was in the city yesterday on the way
TO GOldfield 10 prepare for the meeting
One of the principal reasons for TINS
prospect is the marked activity which
has been displayed, not only by citizens
Of GOldfield but OF the entire state OF
Nevada. In forWardinE schemes for max
ing the meeting Of the congress a success
Nevadans, apprcciaunE the distinction
conferred upon them by the holding IN
their state of a session Of the represent
Rtive body of mining men OF the coun-
try, are exertinE every effort 70 make It
the most notable of ell meetings OF the
kind.
Mr.. CaIbroath was occupied yesterday
comforting with John Dem Of the con
gress board Of directors, and Harry ),
Joseph, men Der OF the program commit
tee, with reference TO arrangements Tor
the coming meeting. Attention was given
10 the topic which relates TO a movement
for the greater use of silver. 1t Is the
purpose to take that question entirely
out Of politics and to discuss it from the
industrial standpoint, with reference 10
the interest Of the producer, the manu-
factuTer and the trade with foreign coun-
tries.

KNIGHT APPROVES
BEAVER HOLDINGS
Kinu David and Indian Queen
Appeal Strongly to the
Wizard.

After having last week made his first
visit to the properties Of the King David
and Indian Queen mining companies, in
Beaver county. Of which ne and David
Evans own large control, Uncle Jesse
Knight expressed unqualified approval or
everything that had been done in the
way of developing those properties, ana
declared that he was most favOrably i'm
pressed with the outlook for both.
Mr.. Knight, accompanied by General
Manager Evans, was occupied three days
examining the estates of the two com
pauies and their surroundings, including
the Horn Silver mine. Particularly IN
pressed was he with the unusual surface
showinEs on King David ground, where
are outcrOps of fine mineral fully thirty
feet wide. His examination was thorough
IN every respect, and ne came away par
taking fully Of the enthusiasm of his as
sociates over the possibilities Of the re-
giOn.
The shaft in the King David is down $50
feet It would be considerably deeper
than that had it not encountered a
stratum Of very hard rock which has
made digging slow. This rock. Mr.. Evans
says is Identical with the casing rock
which has enclosed all Of the ore bodies
encountered in that district. 1t is splat-
tered throughout with lead. which has
appeared in increasing quantities as depth
has been gained a station IS TO be cut
at tht 500-fO0t point and crosScuts viii

that ore viii be encountered within
short distance from the shaft
Conditions at the Indian Queen are
hardly less enCourag ing. The long tun-
mel is approaching the very heart Of the
mineral country. and indications that II
Is nearing ore are as favorable as could
be desired The lime rock is literally
honeycombed with caves and 'bugholes,"
and Mr.. Evans. for the first time since
work began in the Indian Queen, declares
that he would not be surprised to run
into an ore body any day.
