One of its most attractive spots is the
great peninsula of Belle Terre, jutting far
out into the Sound, the home OF numer-
Gus and jolly country club Of that name.

PHENOMENAL STRIKE MADE.
IN THE HOT CREEK DISTRICT

ELY, Dee. 2S. - After having lain
dormant for almost thirty years, the
old-time silver properties in Rattle
snake canyo are again in the spotlight
of publicity. While conducting a sys-
tematic campaign of exploration on the
keystone group, j.. H. Hillyer of Me
Gill, uncovered a large body of high-
grade, which carries phenomenal values
in lead and silver.
Picked samples from the bonanza
find assay as high as 1898 ounces in sill
yer and 37.3 per cent lead. The strike
was made in an old shaft at a depth of
600 feet. Although sufficient work has
not been accomplished to determine She
extent of the discovery, it gives every
evidence of bling a permanent ore de-
post.
Such glowing reports have been re
ceived from the Hot Creek properties
that a number of smelter employees az
MeGiil are arranging to lease the Key
stone group from Mr.. Hillyer. There
are lodges from three to seven feet
wide that outcrop on each o fthe claims.
During the early days of Nevall
some of the richest silver ore ever dis
covered in the state was shipped from
these properties to Swanson, Wales, for
treatment. The entire consignment av-
eraged $4,000 in the white metal ami
brought handsome returns to the fortu-
nate owners.
Ten thousand tons of low-grade ores
carrying values from $40 to $40 are ~

p~ensive structures. With the present
knowledge of the comparative merits
of the different types, it is believed
that standard designs of the simplest,
satisfactory type should be adopted for
all minor structures.
"The most uncertain feature Of
nearly all of the projects is the water
supply. This is under state control,
and in the prosecution of its work the
reclamation service bears the same re-.
latlon to the state as to a private indi-
vidual or corporation. Where the wa
ter rights have been adjudicated, the
rights of the United States are well de-
fined, but elsewhere they are uncer-
tain and may prove to be materially
different from that assumed.
cit is recommended that, wherever
possible, steps be taken to secure an
early adjudication of water rights on
all projects where such adjudications
have not yet been made, and that
pending such action, expenditures be
within the probable rights of the Unit
ed States.'

The $4,000, 900 is to be spent within

In his letter to the secretary of the
interior approving the report OF the
engineers, President Taft says in part:
q hereby approve the report of the

have made allotments from the 800.

as the amounts of the allotments are
concerned, is not final and absolute, Blu.
it is intended to be subject to change

the work, and to the advantage of the
service.

ting the report announcing my approval
for the same and urging the Adoption
of the legislative measures Recommend
ed by the board
In it's comprehensive report on the
reclamation work in general, the engi-
neers' board says in part:
"The engineering structures of the
various projects are, as a whole, well
designed and well built, some of them,
as the Pathfinder dam. the Shoshone
dam, the Roosevelt dam and the Gun
nison tunnel are monuments rejecting
great credit on both designer and
builder.
"Modern irrigation being a relative
~ new art in this country, much free
dom was allowed the local engineers in
the design of minor structures. While
this was a wise policy in the early
stage of the work, it has resulted in
some complicated and unnecessary ex-
