Perhaps Another Merger

A new body of ore in the West End
In Two different places $50 feet apart
on the 400 level is the latest sensation
IN Ionopah mining circles.
The new ore BODY was run into Tues
day and three shifts have opened it in
both places to the extent of about eight
feet. One strike was made in cross
cut from what is known as the 40
raise. The other strike is in the face
OF the west drift on the 400 level. The
ore is of good shipping quality; in fact,
the assays made show it to be little
above the average shipping ore of the
mine.
This vein is an entirely new and diff
1erent one from the regular West End

known on the streets there was a
rush TO buy the stock at the brokerage

Amethyst Bonded

The Amethyst quartz claim has been

Forest City and Allegheny Rich
quartz specimens were found on the
claim in Oregon creek by Henry Hill

years ago, and a shaft sunk on the
vein last summer developed ore and
some very rich arsenical sulphurets.
The claim was bonded last week to A.
