STOCK MARKET

Yesterdays operations on the
stock exchange showed considerable
activity with the result that the Sc
curities of this section enjoyed a
marked advance. Tonopah Mining
advanced above the 81 mark, Mon
tana-Tonopah went up A points,
Tonopah Extension increased a
point, as did Midway. AS a whole,
the market looks healthier than it
has for some time past.
The Goldfield securities also en-
joyed substantial advances. Con-
solidated went up 27s points, Flor
ence 71s notches. Booth remains
strong, the others displaying
strength.
The following quotations are re-
ceived by the reliable brokerage firm

something should be done to show
even this squaw that the age of
chivalry has not yet passed, and
that we appreciate the lesson she
has taught us. No concerted action
has yet been taken, but it is at least
certain that proper application will
be made for a Carnegie medal
Meantime, to the credit OF Los An
geles, and to the credit of the des-
ert mining man, be it recorded that
she has been placed beyond the
reach of actual want by one who
knows the desert as it is, by one
who knows the perils of Death val
ley, by one who knows the tortures
of thirst. By his generosity Maggie
has been supplied with a pension
sufficient to keep her in the neces-
stiles of life for the rest of her days,
days that will be passed in sight OF
the scenes of her heroism and under
the shadow of the Panamint range,
Honor to Bob Montgomery, who
among us all, has shown his practi-
cal appreciation of the haroism OF
an Indian, untutored and nameless
under the desert sun.

5000, which was to pay for 1000
shares of stock in the company at
the rate of 21s cents per share, and
sent the check to the secretary of
the Goldfield lodge with the request
that if the information about the
property was correct and the invest
ment all right, the check could be
delivered In order to learn wheth-
er Herr had in fact sent the circu-
lar the check was delivered to him
and his receipt taken for it. Upon
investigation it was learned that
Herr owned no mining property at
all in Goldfield and that the whole
scheme was fraud. 1t is believed
that Herr is not even a member of
the Knights of Columbus, or if he
is he is not in good standing. Herr
has admitted that he sent the cir
culars through the mails and full
list of all the secretaries of the diff
ferent lodges communicated with is
now in possession of the govern
ment authorities. -Carson News.

PUT ORES FROM YOUR
PROPERTY ON DISPLAY

Time is growing short. The
American Mining congress will soon
begin it's sessions in Goldfield. If
you are interested in a mine or
mining district, or property, secure
the best collection of its ores pos
sible, and at once put them on dis
play in the Mineral Palace. The
railroads will carry them to Gold
field free of charge. Don't neces-
sarily search for high-grade ore.
Milling ore in quantity is the most
attractive to the man looking for
mine investment. Show the milling
ore as a money maker, and put
some high-grade in, too, to sweet
en- it up" like raisins in cake. But
hurry, and then hurry some more.
Time is growing short, and the
story of Nevada's richness must be
portrayed in the Mineral Palace. If
you have pride in your state, coun-
ty, town, or mine, do it today.
