T0NGPAH FAILS TO
KEEP IN HARMONY

BY all odds one Of the most striking
features or the current slump I'm mining
stocks. and the one that has boen over
looked 10 a great extent is the perverse
attitude of the Tonopah issues They
refuse most positively 10 reflect the gen
eral oearish tendency. and Tonopoh is

ever were on account OF the many re-
cent splendid developments at depth The

bodies of ore below all heretofore sounded

SHAT 7 MAY NOT
BE DEEP ENOUGH
Absence of Moisture on Low
Level Lower Mammoth
Raises Doubt.
BUT CONTACT HAS
NOT BEEN GAINED
Results Disappointing So Far,
but Good Chances Yet
Remain.

Like serial story whose chapter closes
at a most absorbing point to "be con-
tlnued In our next" Is tho history OF the
average mining proposition during It's de-
velopment period. So 1t Is with the Lower
Mammoth property OF TIntIc today lead
Ing one TO the very highest point OF ex-
pectaton only 10 break off just at a point
where the mystery OF the ground appears
on the verge OF being disclosed to anxious
eyes.
Last week the drift to the south on
the 1000 level gave every possible evil
dence of having encountered large and
rich orc body. a crosscut sent east to
determine the extent of the body looked
great for many feet only to disappoint
soon after. r. G. Coffin. one Of the d.
rectors and the superintendent OF the
company, was In the city yesterday and
when asked by The Tribune for descrip-
ton of present conditions he stated that
the management naturally felt dIsap-
pointed at the turn affairs had taken, but
nothing remained but 10 move along and
walt the trend Of the next chapter OF de-
vclopment
In the first place the drift has not
gained the contact which has been con-
sldered the objective point from the he
ginning. IT was the fine looking ore
caught to the north Of the objective point
that created the hope Of ore bodies on
the road 10 the contact so while results
are disappointing the situation is by no
means hopeless. There Is an opinion on
the part OF many officials and friends Of
the Lower Mammoth that the 1000 level
is not after all deep enough for the great
est results. While this level Is In the
sulphlde zone. II so far has been so de-
void OF moisture usually attending the
best producers that still more sinking
must be done before the era hoped for is
gained.
Mr.. Coffin points out that last week
the company shipped flve cars Of ore in
stead OF four as reported, and there will
be three cars leave the mine today for the
local market.

The following from the Boston News
Bureau was received Saturday over the
Pollock wires,
The transaction whereby Amalgamated
Copper company comes into possession
OF copper mines and reduction works IN
the Butte district owned by Senator w.
A. Clark was, practically closed FRIDAY
and Senator Clark sails for Europe today.
The details OF the transaction will he an
nounced In the near future, although 1t is
stated that the Amalgamated secured the
properties upon very reasonable terms.
This sale by Senator Clark to the Anal
gamated covers all his copper mines in
Butte and the Butte reduction works
where the Clark ores have been treated,
Senator Clark retains his Zinc mines In
the northern part OF Butte territory. The
Clark properties consist principally Of
Original and Stewart claims. They COM
prise thirty or forty claims and fractions
of claims and have produced at the rate
of about 20.000.00O pounds OF copper
year: Their present production is ap-
proNimately 2i.0O0.Oo0 pounds year
With the Clark mines the Amalgagated
group OF properties viii have an aggre-
gate production Of about 325,0O0.000
pounds OF copper per year and VIII control
all principal mines I'm Butte camp with the
exception OF North Butte. As Is general
" known there has been a controversy
as to ore bodies between the Amalga-
mated and Clark interests for several
years. The deal Will dispose OF this dis
putc. The Clark mines are not as deep
as those OF the Amalgamated and with
the latter's superior facilities can be
operated more economically than hereto
fore. Original, Consolidated Mining COM
pany, which is included in the transfer,
was organized February 20 1909, under
the laws Of Washington with captaliza-
ton OF $40, 900. 900. shares 800 par. as the
successor Of Original Mining company. The
lands include the Original. West Stewart.
East Stewart, Dives Homes. Wooman
and other adjoining properties. The
Original and West Stewart and the Origi-
nal are producers. For the year erded
June l. 1907. the orc extraction of Origi-
nal was 2i6,23i tons. yielding s9.3l per
ton gross with cost Of extraction OF si.0S
per ton. Net earnings were $685.

or a net average value of S31.62 per ton.
The ore shipped In 1909 came mostly
from the 300-foot level and above, being
an extension north of the old workings.
and the supply from this source gives no
indication OF exhaustion. The strike OF
the vein is north and south, with dip
OF IS degrees TO the east. Considerable
ore from this source is still being cX-
tracted. The ore in the vein opened in
the north extension of the i00-foot level,
with the same strike and dip, as shown
by the workings so far extended. Is
opened more than $50 feet on the strike.
An inclined winze has followed the ore
on the dip Of the vein more than 100 feet
below the 400-foot level and several
raises have followed the ore upward more
than seventy-flve feet. and the ore ap
pears continuous and permanent In all
directions. Its average width In the
wnze is about four feet. This ore Is
clean, requires no sorting and yields
about $40 per ton, containing about thirty
ounces OF silver and 40 per cent lead. The
distance from the 40O-foot level TO the
surface In the dip Of the vein is about
200 feet.

Delaware Deserts Peaches.
From the Boston Transcript.

rum the DoStOn Transcript.
Peach growing is not confined to any
one section Of the country. It Is car
ried on with more or less success in
almost all of the states. but those that
in times past have been best known
in connection with this industry were
Georgia. Michigan, Maryland and Della
ware, and the greatest of these was
the smallest, or the one last named.
Early prophecy of the failure of the
Delaware peach crop has been a kind of
perennial joke, and consumers looked
with confidence to see the blushing fruit
crowding the markets and browning the
stands in due season. But the prophecy
has at last reached a serious fulfillment.
The Delaware peach is perhaps still exist
ent, but II no longer cuts a commercial
figure The soil that responded SO well for
century or more to the culturfsts' EFFORTS
has lost its distinctive quality, and as a
resource the industry has been abandoned.
But something more profitable is taking
it's place. 1t has been discovered that the
conditions are as good for raising apes
as they ever were for producing peaches.
and the agriculturists are throwing them
selves into the business with an enthu-
siasm born of a new discovery. They argue
that there are literally millions in II,
and the apple stories that are told can
hardly be matched by even the famed
northwest. Prof c. s. Clase Of Maryland,
an expert in pomology, declares that the
state can produce as good apples as any
that grow in the United States, and the
greatest surprise of all lies in the pro-
ductive quality Of the light sands. You
get the flavor. the color and the quality
and you get the price"
1t Is claimed that some Delaware or
chards earn six or seven hundred dollars
annually per acre. a single orchard of
only forty trees is instanced that pro-
duced POP barrels Of SO fine quality that
they sold for $40 barrel. This potential
apple productiveness is a surprise to the
people of Delaware. New England can
experience a like agreeable surprise IL
the people who own and work the land
will awake to their unsurpassed oppor-
tunities for profitable apple raising.
