JOLLY JANE is CLASSED
WITH PIONEER WINNERS

The Mining Investor of Denver says:
Word has been received from Pioneer,
Nevada. that the contract for sinking
the shaft on the Pioneer Extension
property to the 200 foot point has been
completed. The company will nov
make plans to crosscut east to the Zig
vein.
The shaft did not enter the vein on
its dip which shows that the VEN does
not din at a great angle. 1t was honai
to enter the vein with the shaft as
the vein is dipping in that direction.
All big values in the Pioneer section
are found at a depth of from 100 to
900 feet and it is hoped that the cross
ert RIM from the voin will encounter
paw ore from the start.
John T. Hawkins, formerly of the
| Portland mine of Cripple Creek, ex'
amined the Jolly Jane Spencer lease
ON the south block of the Pioneer FIX
tension property and reported very
favorahly. Arrangements are under
way to sink this shaft deeper as TIE
management believes from showing
that the Jolly Jane lease will he the
| next shipper at Pioneer. The Jol:,
| lane has shown values running from
s12 70 $50 in sinking the shaft and II
is believed that it is only a question
of getting the proper depth until thu
permanent ore shoot will be found.

regular tonnage, a total of III cars hav
ing been forwarded to the smelter, ag
gregating $50 tons. During the past
week the result of development work
underground has been most satisfactory.
While no new veins have been en-
countered, extensions of the ore bod.
les now being worked upon have been
proven, thereby adding greatly to the
known tonnage of the mine. While The
proving of these extensions has been
most pleasing to the management, the
character of the ore encountered by
this new work has added greatly 70
the value of the finds. Especially is
this so in the workings above the
300-foot level, where the ore body in
No. IL stope has been opened up for a
distance of 40 feet, exposing from 8 T.
s feet of high-grade milling ore, with
2 feet of rich shipping grade ore on
the hanging-wall, much of which shows
large plasters of argentite, together
with considerable ruby silver. Another
point of interest is found in the raise
being sent up to connect with No. II
stope, the top of which shows % feet
of very rich ore, although the hanging.
wall has moi yet been reached. The
condition of the mine, generally speak
ing, is excellent, and there is little
doubt that the present heavy shipment
will be maintained for some time 70
come.
Leases on Jim Butler.
The past week has been one of un.
usual activity on the different blocks
of ground being worked under the leas-
ing system IN the estate of the Jim
Butler Mining Co., and some excellent
A combined shipment OF about so tons
will be sent out next Monday, the ore
coming from no less than eight or ten
leaseholds, and the various leasers are
now busily engaged sacking the ore
which has been accumuiating on the
Jumps. Owing to this ore coming from
~1arious workings it is hard to estimate
its value, but it will probably aver
age in the neighborhood of 500 a ton.
All the operators are satisfied with the
showing thus far and are pushing the
development and prospect work along
as fast as possible.
Development work on the West End
property is being pushed ahead stead
lily and a good deal of new ground is
being prospected. While nothing Of
great Importance has taken place since
our last report, the general condition of
the mine continues to be very satisfac-
tory. During the past week So feet of
new ground was broken in the differ.
workings and 80 tons of good ore
were sent to the smelter. The develop
ment work is exposing large bodies OF

was consigned to the Selby Smelling
for refining. In addition to this, reg
ular shipments twice a month IN the
~neighborhood of $50 tor of eoncen-
trates are sent to the smelter, together
making an excellent production. The
report from the mill for the past week
showed that 900 toni of ore were
treated. from which an average extrac-
ton of nearly 80 per cent. was OBJ
tanned, which is proof of the excellent
work the mill is doing. In the under
ground workings of the mine a total
of POI feet of development work was
done, which is moving things at a
pretty good pace. Though nothing of
importance has taken place since our
last report, the mine continues to show
up in excellent condition, the various
operations being carried on in the
slopes and on development work show
ing the ore bodies to maintain their
strength and values. In addition to the
operations on the upper levels, a very
important piece of work is being done
on the 765-foot level, which consists
of sending out a long north crosscut
to prospect that section of their terri
tory, where the company has a large
acreage.
Tonopah Mining Company
The past week was a busy one III
this company's property and the fast
pace of development work is being
kept up. On all levels from the Miz-
pah, Silver Top and Red Plume shafts
extensive operations are being carried
on, opening up new ground and fol-
lowing new veins which have recently
teen encountered by exploratory work
row being carried on. In different
points in these new workings an i'm
provement is noticeable in the veins
which are being followed, while the
crosscuts which are being sent out to
open up new blocks of ground have en-
countered several small veins which
give every promise of furnishing "A re
spectacle tonnage of ore. The result
of the week work has been very sat
isfactory, inasmuch as it has disclosed
the existence of several new leads,
which will be prospected in the near
future, but which at points of cutting
have shown milling grade values. The
regular production which is paying div
idends is going out steadily every day,
keeping the 100 stamps in the com
pany's mill dropping steadily, the re-
port, which appears at the end of this
report, showing that the average values
for the week nave increased to $21 per
ton.

time he came to the mention of the conference.
 He repeatedly said that 1t was charged against Leon McCord that he was bought by the liquor interest, but he Cthe speaker) did not make the charge. He stated that Leon McCord had written to all the members of the Legislature asking them to not make any more prohibition laws.
 He declared that the men who met in Montgomery Sept. 15, were the same people he had been fighting all the time. He said he believed he could walk to the polls and vote in his sleep for prohibition, and insisted throughout his discourse that the question was simply liquor or no liquor.
 The speaker charged that the oppo- sition to the amendment was backed by the allied saloon interest of America, and that they were going to buy the election, if they could. He accused the liquor men of being anxious to keep 1t out of the constitution of the State.
 The speaker frequently averred that there was no politics in this question, but 1t was purely and simply a moral one, He appealed to the three preach CTS present, and said he thought they should settle this question.
 The speaker asserted that the second clause of the amendment proposed did not repeal any part of the present con stitution.
 MT. Carmichaers appeal to the voters in closing was to vote for home, Wo- men and chilren, and the State. There were but few outbreaks of applause during the entire discourse.
 After his discourse, resolutions were offered against the evils of liquor and eulogizing the Conner administration. and the Legislature, and was adopted.

uYss srERNFELD TALKS MOST INTER OF HER THIf.

nrias Dora Sternfeld. who has re- turned from abroad, Is enthusiastic over her European trip. In short interview yesterday she has this 10 gay regarding her trip:
 A world In miniature Is Paris The French people with their gaiety or rnfrit revei in ceaseless tides or rleasures. as if 1t were an earthly eiysfum. Upou entering Paris you feel the influence of its cheerfuI at- mosphere. and divest yourself or ev- cry serious thought without an ioea beyond the present moment.
 aIt seems as if all Paris is taking a holidav and resolved to make most Of 1t. This is only the first impression of Paris, as the longer you remain m fhis great city the more you realize what there Is to~be seen and learned. The cathedrais of Paris are wonder fui in their Gothic style of architec- ture. Amongst these Is N2tre pame. which is a masterpiece of art. The garroyles of Notrs Dame are famous. and 1t was claimed that these demon facal ornamentations which adorn this building were for the purpose or warding of evil spirits. Greek ana Roman architecture are also repre- scented by the beautiful cathedrals the Madeline and the Pantheon.
 "The art galleries of Paris are amongst the greatest in the world. Nemia de Milo is one of the most cell ebratsd treasures of the Louvre. How great. how beautiful and noble is this Venus. What a vogue and divine smile rests on these parted lips. In ptctures of the great Italian masters of the sixteenth century, the Louvre is richer than any other gallery on this side of the Alps. With the ex- ception of Rome. and Florence tho Louvre contains some of the finest specimens of RaphaeIs works. Titian is also brilliantly represented by . number of religious paintings. The opera house in Paris is said to be the most magnificent structure of its kind in tfie world. No adequate idea Of it's vast dimensions can be obtained with out walking around its exterior or viewing 1t from an elevated position. There is hardly a variety of marble in it's construction. The exterior is embeiished with symbolic statues to the musea. and also fin every niche there Is . bust of a great musician.
 During my stay in Paris I heard Lohengrin, Faust and Romeo and 5uliet.Nthe ballet of the Paris opera is unsurpassed. A beautiful custom which impressed me in Paris was thu reverence paid the dead. AS a funera cortege passes every man bows and tips his hat. Even If he Is a person of low mien his heart softens at ths eight of Q funeral.
 "There were many other customs fl Paris so different from our own coun. try, too numerous to mention.
