SEVEN TRoUGHS MILL
RUNNING THREE SHIFTS

The Darby mill at Seven Troughs is
one of the busiest places in the dis
trict today The mill is running three
Sits and is proving entirely satisfac-
tory in the treatment of local ores.
A large run of Buckhorn ore has just
been finished and teams are now haul
ing ore from the Seven Troughs mine.
Fully 100 tons of this rock will be treat
ed at this time. the last run of the
Fairview proving eonelusively that the
mill can get the values from the silver
ore.
Bv the time this lot of ore is finish
ed it is expected that the changes in
the mill will have been completed and
all will he in readiness for the ore

the high silver values in the ore, it $

LOVELOCK BONDS
BRING PREMIUM

Tuesday afternoon, just before the
board adjourned, the First National
bank of Winnemucca submitted bid
for the Lovelock sewer bond issue of
$4,000, which was accepted. The price
paid was $20,500, being par $400 for
accrued interest and 800 premium.
The fact that the only bidder for the
issue gave premium of one half of one
per cent would indicate that Lovelock S
credit is Al in the financial world.
The lack of bidders for the bonds
can probably he accounted for from
the fact that it has been currently re-
ported that Lovelock capitalists wished
the securities, and for that reason 9th
ers considered it useless to submit
bids.

Today W. G. Adamson is boxing a
shipment of cinnibar ores which will be
placed on exhibition at the American
Mining congress that will meet in Gold
field on September q. The rock comes
from the property of the Nevada Alma
den Mining company in American can
yon and are fine specimens. Their
richness can best be appreciated when
compared with California ores, which
last year, for that states total pro

per cent in quicksilver. The ore to be
exhibited at the congress will run from
80 to 35 per cent.

TO OPEN YAKIMA
RESERVATION
Especial to Silver State News

SPOKANE, WASH, August 7.--Pri-
vate advices have been received in
Spokane from Washington, y. c., con-
firming the reports from other sources
that the Yakima Indian reservation, in
central Washington, probably will be
opened to settlement and entry some
time in 1910, when it is likely that the
lottery system will be adopted in dis
tributing the land among actual homo
seekers. The reservation il south Of
the Yakima valley, which il famed
throughout the world for the excellence
of its apples and other fruits. It il
served on the eastern border by =
transcontinental line. The reserve
contains more than 100000 acres Of
land, which is adapted to almost every
branch of agriculture. Much Of it can
be irrigated and made to produce large
crops. Charles F. Hauke, chief clerk
of tie Iuiian opai: ment, ammo ines
that commission, now at work ap-
praising the lands, may be ready to
make it's final report early next year,
though no effort has yet been made to
have the Indians sell their holdings.

NATIONAL BULLION
ON EXHIBITION

This morning the attention Of visit
ors to the First National bank was at
tracted by the sight of l6 bars of bull
lion corded up on desk behind the
screen. In the aggregate the bars
weighed rs pounds two ounces, and are
the product Of 472 pounds of National
ore, reduced by the Winnemucca assay
office. While an assay of ths bullion
has aot yet been completed, the value
is estimated at $4,000. The bars win
be shipped this evening to the Carson
City mint.
AT meeting of the directors Of the
National Mining company, held Mon
day evening, dividend of one cent
share was declared on the 100000
shares of the company's outstanding
stock, amounting in the aggregate to
ST. 900. AS this dividend exhausted
but small portion of the money in
the treasury, it is probable that ad-
ditional appointments will b made

SOON Be READY TO
SHIP ORE

Development work on the Inter
mountain property, situated on Winnie
mucca mountain, has reached stage
where the company expects soon to be
shipping ore.
A double compartment shaft, one,
being 5x5 and the other 31ax5 feet in
the clear, has been sunk to depth of
400 feet, where station rooms have
been cut on the north and south sides.
From these stations crosscuts will be
made to reach the veins, the one on
the north carrying gold values and the
other gold and silver.
AT present two pumps are being used
to keep the shaft clear of water, handl-
ing from 30 to 40 gallons a minute.
The sinking pump lifts the water from
the 400 to 200-foot level, where it is
raised to the surface by the station
pump. A fifteen-foot sump is being cut
in at the bottom of the shaft, and when
completed the station pump will be
able to handle all the water alone.
This development work is the most
comprehensive mining ever attempted
on the mountain and has required the
expenditure of large sums Of money.
However, Superintendent Adamson is
satisfied that the proposed crosscuts
will uncover large bodies of valuable
ore that will yield a good profit on the
investment.

James g. Givens, Nevada secretary
of the American Mining congress, with
headquarters at Goldfeld. arrived in
Winnemucca Thursday evening, in the
interest of the big mining exhibit, on
his way home from Ely and the east
ern part of the state. Asked as to the
prospects for the meeting to be held in
Goldfeld, Mr. Givens replied
" All indications point to the largest
attendance in the history of the CON
gress. As a special inducement to Sc
cure this years meeting, we promised
an increased membership in Nevada of
200. We have already secured $50 of
them, bringing the state membership
up to 240, and before the congress adj
journs that number will no doubt be
increased to 300. 1t is the intention to
then organize state branch of the
American Mining congress, which will
hold frequent meetings, in the several
district, in the interest of our local
mining industry.
"Col. Tom Ewing, the well-known
Bisbee copper man, who has visited all
sections of the country promoting the
congress, states that there will be an
attendance from outside the state Of
fully 1000 delegates, which, added to
the attendance from Nevada, should
bring the total up to fully 5000. j. F.
