"Do something besides talk" Ia the
'mot,o Of George Elmer LIttleneld,
nov of westwocd, Mas. To prove
suxt he lives % n his own advice he
has started The Fellowship Fran
Plan. IL is an excellent idea. Here
Il what he has done:
He induced forty persons 20 pool
$3.50 month for one year. With this
sl.2O0 they paid the tlrst installment
OF sl 900 on an ss,U0O farm near Boston
and agreed 10 pay $3.50 quarterly until
the balance, or mortgage. was paid.
Then he tells what followed:
1--WE Immediately cut up forty acres
into one.acre holdings aud sold each
Fellow one lot outright, TO be decided
to him when he has paid the sum OF
$500, and the Farm becomes clear OF
debt--he TO agree to give the group
arst option II ever he wishes 10 leave
and sell out.
PLAN FOR RECREATION ALSO
"The rest OF the land, together with
the farm buildings, TO remain the col
lective property OF the corporate
group--a large house ultimately to be
fitted up as Fellowship House, with
club equipment and great drawing
room, and parlors for chapel, socials,
lectures, exhibitions, etc. The com
mon barn to be for our collective cows,
horses, etc.
.sIn due time we will erect-a Fellow.

meanwhile we shall accumulate

"Then we will turn this money ovel
and erect other cottages to be paid FOL
10 the same way. And SO On until al

tage; others will care for only a cabit

DEAL FOR ATLANTA GROUP
HAS been CONSUNNATED

in the coming year the company will
install a new hosting plant, as well
as adequate power equipment. 1t is
likely, too, by this time next year,
the Atlanta mine will have facilities
through which the metallic contents
Of the ore will be reduced to bullion,
But the destiny Of the camp Of At
lanta does not depend entirely upon
the successful exploitation of this one
mine. The district covers an area ex>
tending for many miles along the
Spring Valley range of mountains
and some are of the opinion thai the
gold belt continues all the way to
Fay, Gold Springs and Stateiine.
Phoebe is the natural supply point at
the present time for the Atlanta dis
trict. Ely has been making bid for
it; but the distance and condition OF
roads favor Phoebe. If Phoebe busa-
mes men keep on the alert. they are
buand tn hold the trade of the new

ground almost absolutely level.
Underground the showing is even
more favorable to the Centennial Pi-
cche. The great iron vein which seem
to be the mother lode of the numer-
OILS bedded ore bodies, strikes
straight for the Centennial shaft 1t
makes its best display both as to
sizs and value at the southern limit
OF its exposure in tie Prince. One
hundred feet southeast q the Princes
intlined shaft trosscut on the 200
Level cuts the lode far 120 feet and
has not reached the hanging wall.
The average width of the iron vein
in Prince territory is around $50
feet and it's tendency is to widen
4 wards the Centenniaps boundary.
'rhe average value Of the ore in the
Prince mine, as demonstrated by ac-
al production, is sufficient to net
| sS,O00,000 with metals at the present
| price.
SHAFT DOWN 34O FEET.
The Centennial Phoebe has shaft
down $40 feet on the course Of the
Prince vein and Is being continued at
he rate of 3h feet per day.
The Centennial Co., is well finan-
| ced, and has sufficient money in its
treasury to continue the sinking Of
its shaft to depth of 800 feet, there
by cutting all the bedded deposits
nrw proven in the Prince; also to
thoroughly cross-cut the fissures as
well as the intersection CT these fis-
i. sures and bedded deposits with the
porphyry dixie. From the fact that
he strike of the Prince system OF
lis sures is towards the dixie on the
Centennial ground, and also that the
trend of the ore bodies in the fissure
is in that direction, together with
the dip of the bedded deposits being
, to the southeast, it is firmly believ
ed that the source OF all this ore il
from the dixie, and that larger ant
) richer bodies of ore will be found il
{ lese fissures and beds at or neal
! 'aeir intersection with the dixie.

STORM RETARDS
SHIPMENTS OF ORE

The recent storm has had the ef-
feet of greatly handicaping shipments
of ore from outside mines this week.
From the Princeton side of the dis
trict, practically no movements have
taen made, which gives emphasis to
the fact that until the railroad is ex-
tended on around the Ely range, con-
ditions will not be exactly right for
mine owners out that way to accom-
plish satisfactory results during the
winter months, or any other time for
that matter, when transportation cost
IS taken into consideration.
The bad weather of late, however,
has not retarded progress along de-
/ velopment lines. At the Prince Con-
solidatel, the management is push
ing work more vigorously than ever
before. The big 10o-h. p. Fairbanks,
Morse engine, which is in addition to
the other equipment that has been in
use for many monhs past, is supply
1 ing power for all the machine drills
that can be conveniently operated MOI
only is the company using all OF Its
own available equipment of this sort
but the management has obtained the
loan OF several machines from the Ca
ifornia Phoebe and other mines which
are not so active right now as the
Prince Consolidated.
WITH USUAL VIGOR
The Golden Prince company is con
Iiinuing work at its properties with
usual vigor, as well as with the usua
satisfactory results.
4 Energy is being expended on the
. .s00-foot level, amost entirely.
KING is DOING THINGS
