PROMPT PAYMENT
OF A DEATH CLAIM

Many will recall the very sudden and
tragic death of Frank A. Lucy. formerly
of Goldfeld, Nevada. who was killed
June I. 1903. by falling a distance of 100
feet down the Reilly shaft. Mr.. Lucy
was a young man only 80 years of age.
with a brilliant futur before him in
his profession as a mining engineer, and
his sudden death naturally came as a
great shock, not only to his immediate
family, but to the many friends he had
gained during his residence in this
state.
We are informed that MIR. Lucy car
ried a life insurance policy to the
amount of IS. 900 in The Colorado Ma
tional Life Assurance Company. of Dem
yer. Colorado. one of the strongest of
the western companies. That company
has paid to the widow, Mrs. Frances
Lucy, the sum Of $1,000. being the full
face of the policy. payment having been
made Immediately upon receipt by the
company of properly executed proofs Of
death and release of the policy-contract.
The c~ommendable promptness with
which The Colorado National Life paid
the amount of this claim is a cause for
just congratulation among it's many pol
Icy holders in the State of Nevada, as,
after all. what a policy holder most
wants to know is whether the company
he is insured in will pay the amount of
his policy promptly on his death to
those entitled to receive il; and the rec
ord of the Colorado National Life In
this respect. not only in the State of
Nevada. but in all of the states in which
the company Is doing business. leaves
no question or doubt as to the COM
pany's practice in this respect. We have
no doubt but that it is due to such
practices that The Colorado National
Life Is popularity referred to as The
Policyholders' Company"

Oseeola is again a producing camp

New Moon company which, for three
years, has been driving a long tunnel
into Oseeola mountain. Some time
ago the Whitney mill in Osceola was
purchased by the company from DR..
Whitney, of Salt Lake, and steps were
Immediately taken to overhaul it for
resumption of operations.
The company is now treating about
ten tons of ore a day, running the mill

expected, is is probable an increased

SPLENDID RIVALRY

: T is a splendid rivalry that is DIV being developed between the various
mining districts Of the state in connection with preparation o. exhib-

81 to October 4 inclusive. Practically every district in tho stat is enthused

Alleging hat the d. Mackenzie com
pany wrongfully withheld $4,000 in
royalties, the Goldfeld Consolidated
Mines company has filed suit on an as
signed claim of the Mohawk Mines
company, against d. Mackenzie & Co.,
for that amount. 1t is alleged by the
plaintiff company that the defendant,
while working a lease on the Mohawk
No. 2, Slim Jim and Fraction Lodge
claims, extracted 5000, 900 worth of ore
upon which no returns were made.

tunnel was started, a body of high
grade gold ore was struck from the
shaft but with it was such a flow Of
water that it could not be handel
profitably. With the tunnel into the
mountain a thousand feet, draining a
large area of the property, the ore can
now be extracted at much less ex
pense.
The operations by the New Moon
company have infused new life into
the old camp and it is hoped that lne
results will be so satisfactory that the
mill can be operated continuously
pounding out the precious metal from
the rock.

Nancy Donaldson struck a small streak
of very high grade ore in a shaft, at
a depth of about 20 feet from the
surface. The ore carried values that
resulted in considerable excitement in
that section, but the bunch proved to
be small, as far as development as
certained, and it's continuation was lost
by the fact that it pitched out of

eddie Rushing Work.

Senator L. l.. eddie has his new
plant and compressor installed On his
Carroll Rye claim, just south OF the
Mccormack and Brodigan leases, anu
is rapidly sinking a vertical shaft,
from which he will crosscut the o
try at a depth Of 800 feet. The shaft
is down 100 feet at the present time.
Among the other active leases are
the Krippner, MeAffee-C Condor, Ne.
Court. Earl-Allen, McAffee-Bertron,
Stewart Box, Kirman and others, all OF
whom are pushing their development
in a business-like manner, with excel
lent chances to win.
Reports from the extreme western
limit Of the Lucky Boy silver belt
show that the operators are encounter
ing results that strengthen the belief
that not at the big camp alone will
shippers be made. On Powell Creek,
three miles west of Lucky Boy, Joha
Rodder and A. j. Layman have opened
a streak of silver-iead ore in their tun.
mel ON the Grace Darling claim, which
promises to make a good shipper. Tn.
tunnel is in $50 feet, and the ore has
been showing from a seam to 10 inches
in width for the last rs feet. The
formation is typical of the entire dis
%trict, being lime, spar and granite.
Rodder and Layman will soon start a
raise at the widest point Of the ore to
prove up its extent.

The Collins shaft has been sunk 70
about the 400 level of the Hubbard
lease, which it fadjoins, and extensive
lateral development will soon be under
way. The ore in the Hubbard leasa
was developed to within 80 feet of the
Collins sideline, and unless some I'M
usual geological FREAK has occurred,
the Collins lease should develop some
great ore. These leases are working
about 40 men.
