Mining company, developing the Stone
wall Jackson mine, has made dis
covery of ore on the 300-foOt level.
which indicates that the StonewaIl
Jackson will surpaSS it's record made
in the late '70s, when it was famed for
the production Of silver.
In driving the crOSScut on the 300
foot level the vein has been interSected
for 100 feet or more in width.
Several strata of high grade silver
ore, some of it sulphide, were cut, but
it was not known until last week that
the crosscut had in reality penetrated
fifty feet of silver and copper sulphides
OF good grade. The ore when hoisted
was wet and Shiny and the values in
the ore were not diScernible except on
close examination. Considerable of the
ore was thrown over the dump before
it's value was realized, and when it
was revealed the news was conveyed
to General Manager V. Y. Smith, who
has been detained in Globe since the
holidays, and sample of the ore was
sent in from the mine.
A specimen Of the ore was examined
and is alive with silver in sulphide
FORM and also shows some copper.
Manager Smith is informed that the
ore for fifty feet in the crosscut runs
from 80 to, 200 ounces in silver to the
ton and from to 4 per cent copper. 1t
is one of the most important strikes of
sulphide ore made in Globe district

ROAD WILL DROP
ONE HUNDRED STAMPS
BREAKS GROUND FOR NEW
Mill
Ten Million Dollars in Gold MAY Be
Added to Nations Wealth as
Result of Enter
prise

KINGMAN, Jan. 24.-It is now as
sured that by the first day of next June
100 stamps will be dropping at Gold
Road. Ground was broken for the new
mill the first of the week and work
will be pushed as rapidly as men and
machinery can push it until it is COM
pleted.
This is the third mill to be erected by
this company. When the mine was first
discovered, in 1900, owing to a scarcity
of water dry process mill was erected.
This proved very expensive, and as
water was developed lit was torn out
and Huntington mills substituted. Al
though the mine was working bonanza
ore, producing in these years nearly
$2,5OO,O0O, dividends only to the amount
of $225,000 were declared. So one year
ago the mill was closed down and ali
work discontinued in the mine save a
prearranged system of development.
Originally three claims, located con-
tlguously on the prominent outcrop,
comprised the property. They were the
Gold Road, Line Road and Billy Bryan,
each full length claims. On the Billy
Bryan surface ore was exposed. which

FREE GOLD CROPS FROM
NEW CAMP OF ADELAIDE

GOLDFIELD, Jan. 24.-What appears
to be one of the best indications yet
encountered at the new camp of Ade-
laide, between Gold Crater and James
town, was brought to Goldfield by Bert
Ringer and James Cox, who have in
terests in the section named. From a
surface outcrop on the Little Daugh-
erty, located by John G. Merriman, the
boys knocked off a piece of rock that
within showed a liberal scattering of
free gold. The ledge is said to be very
long and the location of c. M Fagen-
bush, adjoining the Little Daugherty,
is said to have at least 600 feet of the
same vein. 1t is probable that Ade-
laide will take on more life than ever
now that the surface showings have
proved up so encouraging.

;BULLFR0G PIONEER
SHIPS TWO CARS OF
ORE WORTH $4,000

RHYOLITE, Jan. 24.-Two cars Of
lBullfrog Pioneer ore, shipped recently
to Self Lake City, returned close to
$4,000, according to information given
out last week. The returns on the sec>
ond grade car of forty tons showed
values close to 500 ton, or $4,000 for
the car.
The first sampling of the high grade
car of fifty tons shows values above
5000 ton in gold, or close to $11, OOO
The car is being resampled at the Tay-
lor & Brunton sampler at Murray
One car, perhaps two, will be shipped
this week to Salt Lake. There are
about 1000 sacks of ore broken in the
sub-winze, and this will be sacked for
shipment as soon as sacks arrive The
leasers have used sacks with such ex-
travagance that there is sack famine
at the Pioneer.
Three shifts are pushing the crosscut
at the 210 level to reach the rich ore
shoot.
That the rich ore is present much
closer to surface than anticipated was
proved last week when prominent
mining engineer took generous sam
pie from the Wine at sixty-five feet
of depth and secured returns Of $50 to
the ton in gold.

BROKEN HILLS MINE
AT HELENA PREPARES
HIGH GRADE TO SHIP

GOLDFIELD, Jan. 24.-The Broken
Hills mine at Helena is producing some
splendid ore in the drift which is be-
ing extended from the bottom of the
inclined, shaft, at a depth of ninety
feet, the best of which is being sacked
and shipped to the smelters.
The low grade is being piled until
the mill is ready, and no great effort
will be put forth for heavy output.
On the block four lessees, headed by
Walter Whitmore, have struck ore in
good shape. Assays on over two feet
of the quartz go better than 500 a ton
in gold and silver.
On block is new hoist is being in
stalled by Sam Lindsay and associates
who intend putting the shaft down to
a depth Of at least 300 feet.

BEGIN REDUCTION OF ORE
FROM KRAMER HILL MINES

WINNEMUCCA, Jan. 24-The big
mill of the GLASGOW and Western Ex-
ploration company at Golconda has be
gun the reduction of ore from the
mines on Kramer hill. During the past
month two big teams have been hauling
ore from the mines to the mill, until
now there is a large tonnage in the
bins and the management deemed it
enough ahead to keep the plant in
operation steadily. The Backus broth
ers, who are doing the hauling, have
kept two large teams busy at this
work and are delivering about twelve
tons of ore at the mill daily.
Without disturbing the slopes and
the ore bodies that are blocked out in
the Kramer hill mines there were 600
tons Of ore on the dumps, and this is
the rock that is being milled at the
present time.
The milling of the ore from Kramer
hill, which is less than two miles from
the depot at Golconda, means a great
deal to that town, and already the ben
efits of this enterprise are being ma
terially felt among the business houses.

Strike on Broken Hills

TONOPAH, jan 24-Tom G. Murphy
of the Helena Townsite company re-
ports another strike on the Broken
Hills property. The new discovery was
made on the Whitmore lease, and. the
ledge was uncovered at a depth oe
about fifty feet. The ore body is about
sixteen inches wide and assays taken
from it go better than 500 to the ton.
The lease has had a force of seven men
operating on it, and now that the pay
dirt has been struck it is expected that
a larger force will be added.
