with favorable ground double this dis

hackers of this great enterprise are
the Knights of Provo, Hanke Brothers

been some delay in getting this work

died, for while the public never learn
ed to think of Marx Twain as lone of
the plutes," he died a wealthy man.
1t was clean, honest money that he
left; a willing tribute paid by a wide
circle of readers as part return for
the pleasure he gave them. At his
death his books were more popular
than those of any other author, living
or dead. Not America alone, but the
whole world mourned his death. He
was a many sided man; an undoubted
genius and philosopher. His insight
was keen and unerring, but it was his
gentleness and simplicity that gave
him his wide following. Mark Twain
wrote for the average man and was
widely loved because, like Lincoln,
however high fate carried him, how
ever much wealth, position and learn
ing came TO him, he remained always
in his heart one of the common people
and was ashamed.-Mining and

The Snake Creek Tune

Notwithstanding the statements of
those who insisted that the great DAILY
Judge-Snake Creek tunnel would
never be started, only on paper, and
that it was only scheme to get con-
/ cessions, ETC., the contract for the i'm
mense adit has been awarded, work
commenced, machinery ordered, and
plans decided up that means the push
ing and completing the work as fast
as brains, money and men will permit.
This means a great deal for the
Snake Creek district, as it will pros
pect a vast area of that section.
There is NO doubt that this tunnel
company will inaugurate one of the
biggest development schemes this sec
tion of the country ever heard of, for
by means of this tunnel they will be
able TO prospect seven hundred and fifty
acres of patented ground owned by the
company, practically surrounded by
the holdings of the King Coalition,
Daily Judge and Great Western COM
panies, and along the great mineral
belt of this section. The tunnel will he
six and half by nine feet In the
clear, with a concave water way three
and half feet deep by four feet wide.
Its length will be 1900 feet, and aside
from drainage, will be used for trans
porting ore and supplies. Compared
with the elevation of the DAILY Judge
shaft, it will bore at an average depth
of some 1900 to 1000 feet, while many
places along its course will be from
$500 to $500 feet from the surface.
The mouth of the tunnel is located Just
above the intake of the Snake Greek
Power company, which is supplying
the energy to drive the tunnel, and as
water is developed the power of this
plant will be increased. There has
been several lines surveyed for the
course of this tunnel, but the one look
ed upon with most favor is the one
headed for Jslet Lake, at the bottom
of Bonanza Flat. The portal of the
tunnel is already under cover, and
everything is in readiness to COM
mence active operations. Free & Tay-
l)r, the successful bidders, are ex-
perienced tunnel men, having been
associated with many of the big tunnel
proposition of this western country.
The machinery is already on the
ground and the big drills and other
paraphernalia will be here early next
week and as many men as can be prof
itably used will be put to work and

Mark Twain's Connection With Min

Samuel Langhorne Clemens, who
died at Redding, Conn.,, April 81, once,

streets of San Francisco, footsore and
weary, lived in cheap lodging houses
and earned his meals as best he could
reporting for local papers. He came
here from Virginia City, where he had
worked as reporter and later city ed
itor of the Enterprise. In his writings
he has given one of the most accurate
and graphic pictures of the West of 90
years ago. At Virginia City his salary
was 4OS week, but, as he relates. he
seldom drew it, for "New claims were
taken up daily, and it was the friendly
custom to run straight to newspaper
offices, give the reporter 40 or so feet,
and get him to go and examine the
mine and publish notice of it. They
did not care a fig what you said about
the property so you said something.
Consequently, we generally said a
word or two to the effect that the in
dications' were good, or that the ledge
was six feet wide or tntt tae rock

abandoned claim blast that ought to
have made its dry bones rattle-and
then somebody would seize it and sell

early fortune-all of this is true pic

his name and fame with the great

sutro Tunnel All Prepared.

A Virginia City dispatch says:-The
five-year contract between the Com
stock Pumping Association and the
Comstock Tunnel Co. expired on May
l. A vast amount of work has been
done on the property, and it is now in
the best condition it has been in for a
long term of years.
The tunnel has been practically
made over. At the time the contract
started in 1905, the hot water from the
lower levels had been pumped into the
tunnel for several years, and flowing
in the open ditch the steam arising
therefrom had raised havoc with the
timbers in heavy ground.
Now all is changed The heavy
ground has been caught up, the hot
water is confined in "A and 30-inch
Oregon pine stave pipe drain. The
ventilation has been so greatly i'm
proved that strong draught of cool
air exists at all times in the main tun-
mel.
1t is now possible for the middle
group of mines to get into their prop
critics on an economical basis from
levels which have been little explor-
ed at depth.

Garrison Talks Phoebe While Visiting
EIV.

Billy Garrison, of Phoebe, who is in
t,rested in Atlanta, and has been
some time past, visited Ely this week,
and reports that developments as a
whole have been very satisfactory in
the district. Everything has been
shutdown since the washout of the
Salt Lake road, but as trains will now
soon be running into Phoebe, he ex-
poets that operations will soon be re-
sumed. He states that while the ores
do not show sensational values it
exists in large quantity and is of a
good milling grade. The camp is only
I3 miles from Phoebe with which it is
connected by a good wagon road.
Phoebe, he says, is quiet at the pres
ent time, but when the railroad is
again in operation the mines will re-
sumo their former activity. The
washout of the railroad caused the
temporary suspension of operations by
nearly all the companies, only a few
men being retained on development
work. The recent discovery of high
grade ore at Delamar has caused a
revival of interest in that section and
there is considerable prospecting 60
ing on there at the present time. As
a whole he expects to see much min
ing activity in Lincoln county during
the remainder of the year.-Record.
