CRYSTAL CITY CAMP.

No mining camp ever started off
with better prospects than Crystal
City, some twenty miles south of
Gardnerville and just east of Alkali
Lake says the Gardnervile Courier
The camp was first heard of a few
months ago when +. Christensen. A.
Pomeroy and Chas. Schuman found

down over so feet and have four

cHAFEY CUSTOM MILL STARTED

The mining camp of Chafey, New,
now Is happy in the possession of a
custom milling plant, and everything
in a mining way there Is expected to
feel Immediately the effect of this
needful accessory, says the Salt Lake
Tribune. f s. Chafey, the man who
revived this old district, came IN from
the camp Monday morning. and
among other items of good news he
brought word that this mill had
started work yesterday morning. This
mill was installed by Salt Lake capt.
tai. and it is logical to expect leasing
operations to be greatly encouraged
now that a market for the ore is
right at home.
Mr.. Chafey says the town itself is
dull, but considerable work is being
done in the hills, and to good pur-
pose. The Black Hole management
is sinking its shaft on fine ore, while
the Bowers lease. on this property, is
sinking in splendid rock. There has
been new strike of good ore in the
Big Thing property, the find being
made via a 200-foot tunnel. Mr..
Chafey did not visit this property,
but heard some very encouraging re-
ports from il.

GEORGE BAKER IS
No MORE
RANKS AS ONE OF ABLEsT At
TORNEYS EVER TO PRACTICE
N NENADA-FAMED IN CON
NECTION WITH RICHMOND.
RICHMOND

George ". Baker, who for 20
years was one of the leading attorn-
eys of this state. is dead at his home
in Oakland, California, after a
several months illness.
Mr.. Baker came to Eureka early
in the 70's and 1t was not long before
ne became one of the prominent
members of the bar. He formed a
partnership with j. L. Wines, who is
considered by many of the old timers
as being the best attorney ever 10
practice in Nevada since the days of
John CARRIER. The firm handled the
legal end of the Richmond company's
affairs, when that property was one
of the largest producers in the state.
1t paid over $40, 100000 in dividends
to its English owners.
The Richmond had several suits
with the Eureka Consolidated and
the best legal talent to be secured on
the coast was in the Eureka court
room during the trials.
Mr.. Baker went to California
about the time Eureka commenced
to decline and was for years a prom
inent attorney in San Francisco. He
Nds oHe Vi the lounutfs u tue bi-
Metallic league in San Francisco and
through his connection with this
organization became a noted figure
in California politics. He is survived
by wife, five sons and a daughter
One of his sons, cleye Baker. is
the present district attorney of Nye
county. He was named after A. &.
Cleveland, who for years was promi-
nent in ranching and political circles
in White Pine county and greatly
admired by the senior Baker.

DIRT AVERAGING s25 A YARD.
Sensational Cleanups are Being Made
In the Manhattan Fields.

A II. Davis. the Manhattan min
ing man, came in yesterday from the
north and was more than enthused
over the appearance of the placer
camp, says the Tonopah Bonanza.
THE district is showing more ac
tivity at the present time that it ever
has since its BIRTH stated Mr.. Davis
! over the entire length of the new
placer beds YOU can see leases pre-
pairing to start and the old ones
hosting out pay dirt. Humphreys
and Pollet yesterday took out a rich
pocket, the values of which are I'M
known, but IL is thought they clean
ed up several thousand dollars. Sew
eral days ago Auxier and Hayden
] cleaned up forty-one yards of dirt by
actual measurement, and they receiv-
ed over $1,000 for their labor.
Dry Wash" Wilson has also made
another big cleanup from his prop
erty.
Yesterday five auto loads in
addition 10 the stage arrived in Man
haitian and each vehicle was loaded
to the guards with new corners. all
of whom were interested or prepar-
/ Ing to purchase interests in the plac-
er properties.
The power house for the electric
company has been started and is ex-
pected to he completed within a
month. The Annheuser Busche
Brewing company has started TO
build cold storage plant and the
work on this will be rushed to COM
/ pletion. There was rumor circula-
/ ted around the camp that Captain
Henry. who is interested in the new
suction dredges. will install one of
these plants on one of the placer
/ leases.
L. X. Kroontz the we'll known
/ Goldf1eld mining man. spent several
days in the camp and he expressed
his opinion by saying that Manhattan
looked 10 him the greatest place in
the United States. He was there in
the interest of Los Angeles people
and took samples of all the placers
and the results he received from pam
ming caused him TO leave in a hurry
i He is now on the way 10 Los Angeles
where he will confer with the people
+ interested with him.
The first days of Manhattan were
considered as a boom, but the present
+ tNaiAShhShi viii ldl SuIpdSS any fuSn
ever witnessed in the northern dis
trict. Mining men and capitalists are
focking to the camp, all eager to Sc
cure leases and each day sees the
men with the backing making prep
arations 10 start operations on a
large scale ON a lease recently pur-
chased.
Not only are the placer beds at
tracing attention, but the quartz
mines are making some wonderful
showings. The recent strikes on the
Union No. 8 have acted as stimu-
liant to the operators of other prop
/ perties and many of them are MAX
ing preparations to sink to a greater
depth.

CHERRY CREEK COMING.
Big Output Seems Logical During
the Months of Summer.

1on are going 10 see Cherry
Creek come to the front during The
summer. We have the ores. and we
have the sort of men who believe
in going after the ores. Ore ship
ments are being made from the
camp, slowly but surely. and there Is
one company there which soon will
be sending out 100 tons of good ore
day. That is the Star property,
said j. w. Walker, one OF the hest
known Cherry Greek operators.
Mr.. Walker stated that the Star
company is hosting hundreds of tons
of milling ore daily in preparation
for the company's mill which is now
being installed. This plant will have
a capacity of 100 tons Of ore daily.
Mr.. Walker is interested in several
properties especially the Nevada
British and Nevada Mother lode. On
the later a contract has been let tor
more development work.
The Nevada British company has
driven its main shaft TO the 350-foot
level, having been In the vein and in
milling ore from the 250-foot level.
The management does not expect lis
best results until the 500-foat level
Is reached. so sinking viii be con-
tinned without hindrance from now
on. During the past thirty days
there has been a decided change in
Cherry Creek. There is more activity
than ever, and the new road has
been completed TO the railroad
tracks. which does away with the
former transportation difficulties.

chunk of rock broken from the big
dyke on his property. that is fair
sample of the character of ore of the
district. Gold can be seen in several
places without a glass. On this
property a tunnel has been started
that will tap the ledge at the depth
of 50 feet, and thus prove its depth.

GOOD VALUE IN OLD PAPERS.
They Can Be Pulped and Worked Up Into Excellent Coverings for
 Fioors.

old. torn and dirty papers are usu- ally regarded as articles without value. but a market is easily found even for what are apparently the most hopeless cases. At a cost of about S3.60 a ton they can be pulped, and worked up into floor coverings, which with thickness of about one-third of an inch have the durability and elas- tic tread of linoleum. When we con sider that the old papers cost say si.6S per ton the profits to be drawn from this manufacture when it is in right hands can be imagined. A new flooring of this kind must, however, be oiled, after having been laid down, with petroleum or any cheap vege- table oil. This will prevent 1t from going moldy, and will also enable 1t 10 be waxed or vanished, whereby it will become as durable and as bril- liant as the best inlaid wooden floors. Great interest has arisen in Germany with regard to this new industry, and experiments are in progress to test the effects of adding other bodies. such as pitch and mineral pigments to the paper pulp so as to manufacture floor coverings of different colors and qualities

LIfE-sAvlNe DOGS IN WEST.
st. sernards of Alpine Stock Which Have Made Records in the
 Rocky Mountains.

Few people are aware of the fact that there are a number of St. Der nard dogs of Alpine stock in the Rocky mountains which have enviable records as life-savers. Prof. E. C. Lin dernann writes most entertainingiy about one of these dogs, in the Su- burban Life He says: 'Leo's affec- ton for children seemed to be . pas sion. At one time he broke down . fence when he heard the cries of a small boy who was receiving castiga- ton at the hands of his mother. and put a stop to the proceedings. He had been very attentive to this little boy when he was iil with typhoid fever and lived in a tent in our garden on the recommendation of his phy ysician. Leo never forgave the mother for her chastisement of the boy, and as con sequence of his obvious dislike. the parents finally moved out of the house. It was Leo's daily habit to conduct a number of children to the school house in the mountains, and go after them, without being com manded to do so. when it was time for the session to close."

CANANEA ADMITS
 DEFEAT, NOT D|SMAYED
Especial to Rcview.)

CANANEA, Aug. 9.-Never since the old days when the ball team drew it's members from the Maverick Mess, store basement and Buena Vista, has Cananea been defeated so decisively and without cause, as she was last Saturday and Sunday by the Douglas nine. There was no use mourning ever a shattered idol and renumera- ting what might have been, but the cold fact that a little display of fore sight and good judgment could have easily turned the series into an even break The local pitchers are as good as ever and will get revenge next week, but they were each worked on the wrong days and contrary to the expectations of those who went to see the games. Gutierrez is there with the goods and will never do so badliy again, yet with all his qualifications Reardon is his superior. The locals got sixteen hits of of Kane-more than any team has chalked up against Max in that individuals natural life There will be lots of Cananea money in Douglas next Sunday to back up the belief that Max can put it all over Kane in the game he is expected tc pitch against him.
 The Cananea team is not disband. ing, no roasts are being handed out, the man with the hammer is not visi- ble on the streets, and the confidence in the team is as strong as ever be. fore; a condition of affairs that will hardly exist in Douglas this time next week, when their little tin gods will have been overturned Some of the strong members of the focal team were out Of the game on account ol sickness and the team work was bad But listen all ye disconsolate: Bin Goodman, as fast ball player as the California diamonds are in the habit of turning out, sure infielder and a batter of the first water, will arrise here tomorrow and stake claim around the second station for while. Then Hugh Dugan, the best Captain who ever pilJted a team to victory, is pat of the hospital and anxious to take revenge from all who took advantage Of his absence from the team. There
