eral parallel outcrops, IN its sides, of
hrecciated rhyolite and quartzite. The
hill proper is covered by the properties
of the Tripolite Mining company, and
lust to the south of these claims are
the claims of the Bullfrog Mining Syn
dicate. c. s. Dempsey, a prominent
business man of Boston, is the presi-
dent of this company, and H.. Nj. Cor
liss, also of Boston. known all over the
world as the Corliss engine manufac-
turer. is the secretary and treasurer.
The company estate is on the east side
of the basin in which the town of Pho.
neer lies, straight across from the Pho
neer mine.
The formations here are slightly diff
ferent from those on the western !
of the basin, there being more quart
ute, which is usually an intrusion
through an unaltered rhyolite, through
rhyolite clays, or in contact with alter
ed limestones or in a few places, with
basalt. There are two or three minor
lodges of silicifed and heavily oxidized
rhyolite which parallel the quartzite
vein systems. Part of the ground is
covered by a thick sheet of malapai,
but erosion has shown that this malapai
sheet is underlaid with rbyolite and
quartzite. Samples taken from either
quartzite or rhyolite lodges in place
show small surface values almost with
out exception.

been done on the properties, under the

ground it can be mined and milled at
a cost of about IS per ton, this leaving
a most excellent margin of profit wen
on IS ore.
Several prospect shafts on the prop
erty and a tunnel cut from surface
through the ledge all show that the
entire vein is an ore body which it will
pay to mine.
To the south and across the Oasis
Valley the company owns the Yellow
Rose group of five claims which have
splendid surface showings. A large
vein in this group is $50 feet wide,
giving average values from 81 to IS.
The Lady Frog group of claims of
this company adjoins the Bon Ton
group on the southeast, Immediately

Tonopah and Tidewater company.
Values on the surface show from 50
to $12. The company is installing a

and will sink to a depth of SOC feet
at once. Drifting and prosecuting will
then be lone to prospect the ore body
thoroughly.
Prominent Eastern men are interest

Cincinnati is president and general
manager. +. G.. Lutz of Milwaukee il

of the Pilgrim Mines company. which
owns four claims there, just inside the
eastern rim of the eruptive zone. On
this estate the formation is to all APP
pearances the same as the formation
on the north and west sides, and the
fact that the outcropping ledge will
give assays of So to 81 clear across
the hill is Indicative that the same
eruptive, hydro and thermal conditions
which have made the rich ore bodies
at the Mayfower and the Pioneer have
obtained here. The only work which
has been lone on this property to date
is the work legally required, but with
in a few days a big force of men will
be at work on a shaft which will be
sent down rapidly, and from which the
property will be thoroughly explored.
This company rightly has faith in It's
holdings. 1t is capitalized for $780,

has been with the proviso that 1T be
pooled for one year. George +. Nit

ditions were checking investment all
over the country. Now, however,
Manager Giles has been gwen the word
to rush things, and development on the
Puritan will keep pace with that of
other properties in the district. The
facts that the Puritan is in the center
of the Pioneer district; that it has good
showings already, and the immense de-
velopment going on all around the prop
erty will all combine to make this
estate increase rapidly in intrinsic
value to it's stockholders.
The property is being mined honestly
intelligently. C. s.. Dempsey of Boston
is the president of the company and c.
f. Landerkin secretary and treasurer.
The company is capitalized at $1,000
900, and the stock is now selling at the
25c mark in Boston. Stock reservations
may be made with f. S.. Giles, at

have inspected the property, and they
were unanimous in expressing the opin.
ion that the formation is one which not
only justihes the expenditure of the
money necessary to ascertain what lies
underneath the surface, but that it ex-
tends every promise of rich and perma-
nent ore bodies. The Boston people
who hold the majority of the stock in
this company, and who are men of
means, share in this belief, and they
are preparing to develop the properties
along energetic, sound, conservative
lines. Their operations will carry much
moral weight and viii mean much TO

and its lower sides are almost covered
with huge slides of this broken rock.
The Bullfrog Mining Syndicate prop

Passed a Confederate Bill.

Henry PRIDE last Friday morning
sold a run-about buggy to a young
man who gave his name as Bob
Kelly, and said that he lived out on
the Bowling Green road. The man
paid for the buggy with a $50 bill,
which was the price of it. He had
rode on a horse and asked to bor-
row a set of harness to take his
buggy home. Henry concluded that
a man who would buy buggy for
fifty dollars and pay the cash
was alright and readily loaned him
a set of harness.
At noon Henry took the $50 bill
to the Mercantile bank and was
rather surprised to learn that it
was not worth anything. 1t was a
Confederate bill and wouldn't 90 at
the bank. The deal was at once re-
ported to the officers and Constable

An Antitoxin for FATIGUE.
.rper's Magazine

Il IOlIl md6ctZlC.
No one substance is able to neutral
ize all fatigue substances and restore
the broken-down material. Only recently
still another aspect has been given to
the question by the investigation of a
young German scientist named WEIGH
ardt He finds that the injection of the
extract of faugued muscles into fresh
animals produces all the symptoms OF
fatigue and even death by apparent ex-
haustion If the dose is large enough.
So far the results are In accord with ex-
periments already mentioned, but he now
goes a step further and finds that re-
peated injections of medium doses of
this toxic extract Of fatigued muscle de-
velop an anti-toxin in the blood of the
injected animal and it is soon able to
stand many times the fatal dose of the
extract. This fatigue antitoxin has been
separated from the blood and admins
tered to fatigued animals, with the re-
suit that they recover very much more
quickly than usual. When given at the
same time that the toxic extract of IA
tigued muscle Is injected, the latter has
no effect
The antitoxin has also been put in the
form of tablets and given to human be-
ings, with the result that records of
the contractions of some of their muscles
prove them to be very much more re-
sistant to fatigue than when the anti
toxin was not given. In some cases
they were able to do nearly hundred
per cent more work before exhaustion,
and this without any apparent after
effect Comparison of these results with
those from other agents mentioned prove
this substance to be by far the most
efficient antidote for fatigue.
