LUCKY BOY MINES SHOW
BETTER ORE THAN EVER

thing bigger than the Hubbard lease
ever saw.
The Mccormack lease is developing
into high grade much faster than had
ever been expected. The last assays
from the breast Of the 215-level showed
$40 ounces silver per ton and Q per
cent. lead, making q total value Of
about $415 per ton. The character Of
the ore seems to be changing into a
higher grade silver with depth, which
may add much to the future POSSIBLE
ties of the camp. Sinking to the 500
foot point has been started. The lease
is getting into better ore as work is
advanced, and the present indications
are the best that has ever been shown
in this block of ground.
Other leases in the Lucky Boy dis
trict are making a most encouraging
showing, and the camp gives BETTER
promise with every foot of develop
ment.

SCHLOSS MAY ESTABLISH
GAS IN GOLDFIELD

In a letter received by The News
within the past day or two, Louis
Schloss, now of San Francisco, former
ly manager Of the Kewanas mine of
Goldield, says that he will be in Gold
field shortly and revive the PROPOSE
ton of putting in a gas plant.
Mr.. Schloss and associates have a
franchise for supplying the city Of
Goldield with manufactured gas and
he says he will be prepared to take
up the scheme again and push it to
completion provided the people of the
camp will meet him half way. Gas
will be supplied for lighting and heat
ing purposes. Mr.. Schloss says: "Now
is the time to put in a gas plant as ma
terial is cheap. | will give the people
of Goldfeld a fair, equable proposition
and try to have it in by January l."
Mr.. Sehloss reports that he has taken
over a lease at Chaffey, with pay ore
in sight. "Will start up something new
also at Goldfeld by October L."

NEW OPERATIONS SHOW
CONFIDENCE In GOLDFIEIn

New operations and the resumption
of work on old properties or leases is
one of the signs Of the times that
shows the improved spirit and renewed
confidence in Goldfeld and its mining
opportunities. Within the past month
this revival has been very noticeable,
and it is not confined to any particular
section, but is in evidence in many
portions of the district.
Work has within the last few days
been resumed on the Century lease on
the Atlanta, which has been closed
down for some time, and development
will henceforth be carried on ener-
getically. This has long been consid-
cred one of the most favorably located
leases on the Atlanta ground, and Su-
p~erintendent j. A. Houlahan and his
associates have great confidence in the
ultimate success of the work.
Mr.. Houlahan has individually taken
a lease on the old Imperial lease block
on the Union Jack claim of the At
lanta and will start to work within a
few days. This is another evidence Of
his confidence in this section.
Thos. G.. Lister of Los Angeles, who
some time ago secured a lease on the
C. o. d. lease block on the c. O. d.
Consolidated property, is about ready
to start operations, having been sue
cessful in fnancin gthe proposition.
During the coming week w. H. Stills,
manager of the Nevada Gold Ore lease
on the c. o. d., is expected to return
from the East and resume development
on an extensive scale.
The W. leases on the Poleverde claim
of the Jumbo Extension, controlled by
DIR. H. NJ. Muggley of New York, where
it is proposed to sink to 1000 feet,
promise some important developments
in that section, which is in close prox-
unity to the Clermont shaft.
b. E. Thomas is preparing to start
active development on his lease on the
Columbia Mountain ground, where he
recently opened a large streak of ore
carrying considerable quantities of
free gold. A crosscut will be driven
through the ledge from the bottom of
the 150-foot shaft to prove the width
of the ore body. Som very fine speci-
mems have been taken from the vein,
and the indications are most favorable
for an important shipper.
Several new leases have recently
been granted on the Wingield prop
critics beyond the north end of Column
hia mountain, on the Conqueror, May
Queen, Sandstone and Kendall proper
ties. M. c. Scully is operating on the
Conqueror and getting a small amount
of ore carrying encouraging values.
Woods & Hutchins, on the May Queen
cleaim near the Consolidated mill, are
meeting with good success and have
just made a shipment of twenty tons
Of ore mined near the surface.

KEANE WONDER HITS FREE
MILLING BELOW COPPER

After exposing five feet Of rich cop
per ore, the new shaft on the Keane
Wonder property has again broken into
free sulphides having been entirely
displaced by the same character Of
quartz ON which the shaft was started
The drift from the 1~10-level, how
ever, continues to expose the copper
and is out twelve feet in the solid ore.
As the distance between the two
points is more than 100 feet, the cop
per shoot is evidently a large one, not
w~ithstanding the fact that the red
metal gave out in the shaft.
The shaft is down 200 feet. Copper
experts think that another deposit of
the red metal may be looked for be-
low the free milling quartz.

A dispatch from Reno says: A move
ment is on foot to dig an immense
tunnel into the foot of the hills in
the old mining camp of Aurora, similar
to the great Sutro tunnel in Virginia
City, for the purpose Of draining the
mines Of that famous old camp an
opening up the town of Aurora again

tests are being made today to deter
mine whether the values will hold up,
or whether this one was merely a
freak. The rock has a very favorable
appearance, and may possibly open in
to good ore.
The attempt to crosscut at the 800
level of the Cherokee lease on the At
lanta has been abandoned ON account
Of the ground being very soft and
treacherous, and the shaft will be
sunk until better ground is encountered.
1t had been the intention to crosscut
about so feet in the expectation of
reaching the ore shoot that was passed
through at about $50 feet in the shaft,
but the mature of the ground makes it
advisable to 60 deeper.
