MORE DEEP DEVELOPMENT
- IS PLANNED FOR PIOCHE

Phoebe, Nevada, July LIN lin
with the policy outlined for The
future, the management of tht
Prince Consolidated Mining & Smelling
company will shortly begin the task OF
putting in its permanent working shaft
The mine is already opened down to $50
feet and on every level a world of ore
has been exposed. But the exploitation
of the mine to greater depths with the
present shaft is deemed inadvisable
for the reason that the further it is
sent on towards the center of the
earth, the farther it will get away from
the ore bodies, it being inclined away
from instead of towards the resources
of the mine.
Besides, when it comes to the extrac-
tion of large tonnage from the prop.
erty, as will be the case in the near
future, a vertical shaft is almost 4
necessity. But the tssk will not be
as difficult as some might suppose, for
Superintendent Lloyd intends to raise
from the several levels of the mine at
the same time and by this means the
hole will be punched through to the
surface in quick order.
Unless facilities for electric power
are available in the camp in the mean
time, it is the purpose of the Prince
Consolidated officials to install a large
steam hosting plant.
The company is shipping high grade
ore to the shelters, the product com.
ing from the lower levels of the mine.
Oregon Phoebe to Resume.
1t will be good news to sharehold-
ers of the Oregon-Pioche Mining com
pany to learn that the development
of its attractive property in the High
land district will be resumed right
away; a contract to sink the shaft nav
ing been let to Mr.. Frederick, who has
been employed in a similar capacity at
the Phoebe King mine.
The shaft where the work is to be
performed is not very far from the
portal of the tunnel where the company
for a time conferred it's energies earlier
in the year.
Oregon-Pioche officials claim that an
extension of the famous Mendha assure
crosses their ground and judging from
surface Indications, there seems to be
no question about it, as the vein is
easily tracable from the very endlines
of the Mendha lengthwise across the
Oregon-P Phoebe ground.

FINDS MUTE EVIDENCE OF
EARLY INDIAN TRAGEDY

Mute evidence of an early Indian
massacre has been discovered in Churc-
hill county, near Fallon, by E. s. Harri-
man, a county commissioner of Churchill
county. While engaged in grading a
portion of his ranch this week Harri-
man uncovered the remains of a pio-
neer's outfit used in crossing the plains.
The articles wer eharred showing that
they had been buried by drifting sands
after lying on a desert for many years
The skeleton of a man and a few human
bones from other skeletons were found
near the partly burner pieces OF the
big emigrant wagon. There were also
two long rifles Of the type used by pic
neers in the early ffties, several rusty
pistols and some knives.

reviewing the great camp, Mr.. Gun
daker stated that No. 2 tunnel, which
is being pushed into the mountain fol-
lowing the rich ledge, is now penetrat-
ing the rich ION which has produced
the phenomenal gold ore since the prop
erty was first opened. In this tunnel
connection has been made by an up
raise with the upper workings. The
woDderful ledge has been proved to a
depth of about 200 feet, with a contin'
nous ore body all the way down. In the
company's tunnel the ledge is stronger
than where it is opened in the Stall tun'
mel, showing large quantities Of mill
ing ore with occasional shoots of the
high grade rock. The tunnel IS being
driven by regular shifts of miners and

Smelter for Ely Valley.
Edward Thomarson, manager of the
Ely Valley mine, expects to leave on
an European trip tomorrow morning
and according to the itinerary arrang.
ed, will not return until about Septem.
Der /.
The Ely Valley is controlled by a
syndicate OF Englishmen and Mr..
Thomarson has been called abroad to
discuss with the members of the syn
dicate, the matter of installing larger
mine equipment and to lay plans for
the future.
An important work undertaken at
the Ely Valley during the past week
is the sinking of the shaft below the
3OO-foot level, which up to a few day
ago, was the lowest point in the mine.
The shaft, Mr.. Thomarson states, is
to be continued on to the 500-foot
point whereupon crosscuts will be run
out to the ore bodies, just as has been
done on the 300 level.
Mr.. Thomarson reports that the east
crosscut from the 300 level has en-
countered a good body of ore contain
ing shipping values.
President Owen A. Bailey of the Pi-
oche Demijohn Mining company, is ex-
pected in camp again sometime next
week when, it is said, he will make
arrangements to ship some ore from
the Demijohn mine.
The Record has been informed by
Superintendent w. +. Bailey that there
is enough high grade ore on the dump
now to make up at least two carloads.
Underground conditions are reported to
be of a most satisfactory character,
and taking into consideration the size
of the force 10Y employed, very good
Roadway is being made. The mine
needs, however to be better equipped
to facilitate development and that is
among the matters which has been re-
c~eiving attention of the directors of the
company lately.

CALLS PITTSBURG-SILVER

to Undue the resident with the notion
that all a man needs is money to defy
lie law. The officials of the rittsburg-
Silver Peak company would seem to
have proceeded on hat assumption ever
since their entry into Nevada. Judging
from recent events in Esmeralda coun-

v~indication in Nevada, it certainly
needs it now, and it is barely possible
that the vindication will be at the ex-
