cidedly scholarly was an elaborate dis
course upon the life Of Boone. his
work as pioneer in North Carolina,
and the northwest. making special
mention Of his connection with the
State Of Franklin at one time a part
of Tennessee as opposed to the fed
eral government. Representative

precious relics, such as guns, hunting
knives, powder horns. and articles Of

PICTURE ORE EXPOSED IN
KIMBERLY CONSOLIDATED

At no time probably in the his
tory of the Kimberly Consolidated
Mines company has there been so
important. a strike as that which
was made on their property last
Saturday
The strike was made in the 1nde-
pendence tunnel No. 1, on what is
known as the south drift, which has
been in ore for over Is feet, but the
climax was reached after the men
on the day shift had made their
final shot on Saturday afternoon.
An 1S-inch vein was encountered
which assays $1,024.15 to the ton
and the vein is spreading out as the
work progresses.
The ore is being sacked and will
be shipped to the smelter with the
balance of the shipping ore which
is being sacked from the different
workings of the Consolidated prop
erty.
This important strike carries out
the prediction of the management
in doing the development work on
this particular part of the Consol.
idated holdings that some large
bodies of ore carrying highs values
would be encountered before a dis.
lance of fifty feet had been driven
in the shaft.
The strike shows conclusively tha
the property is not only low
grade proposition of big possibili
ties, but that it will In time attain
the reputation of being the riches
high grade body of ore ever discov
cred in the world.

balance-well. now and then we
will meet a ragged, down-at-the-heel
man on the streets of some western
metropolis, or in some remote camp
in the hills, who will tell you that
he made a mint of money during
the Tonopah and Goldfield booms,
but that he could not keep it; that
it came too easy; that he foolishly
believed that prosperity would last
forever, and that, instead of laying
aside a nest-egg, he squandered his
wealth in the effort and with the
belief that he would quit a million
aire. He will tell you, also, that
he branched into every proposition
offered, no difference whether pos
sessing merit or not. That he had
too many irons in the. fire, and
that he could not attend to them
properly. He will tell you also
that the stocks from which he might

failed to allege, and it was NOT

that these officers of the bank had
any specific authority from the
stockholders or board of directors
to close the bank or pre- EFT the
receipt of deposits. The court Eeld
that there is nothing in the indict-
ments nor in the language of the
statute which makes an officer OF
an incorporated bank criminally
liable simply because such an office"
knows that the bank is insolvent
and without anything being done on
his part. deposits are being received
by some other officer or employe Ct
the bank, when he has no specific
authority to close the bank or pre-
vent the reception of deposits and
personally takes no part n the re-
ception of the same.
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1910-12-02

A number of years ago, during
the great mining boom in Nevada,
when Tonopah was at the height of
its glory, when fortunes were made
daily at Goldfield, there were hun
dreds of men who were suddenly
raised from almost abject poverty
to positions of affluence. From al
most an empty pocketbook they
were able to count their wealth by
the thousands, the quarter millions,
or even more; in addition to which
they were possessed of stocks and
mining shares that had good sell
ing values, and were in active de-
mand.
Where are these fortunate ones
now? How about 'their wealth and
influence? The echo of the inquiry
reverberating through the hills and
canyons of the various mining
camps, comes back to us without
an answer, for the great majority
of these successful ones are now
down and out. Some few there are
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1910-12-02

have made thousands. when they
were salable, and active, he held for
millions, and that when the crash
came, he had no money and could
not dispose of his stocks. As the
close of his narrative he will tell
you a truth which you always sus-
pected, and that is that, with his
other failings, he was insane.
This is the keynote to the whole
proposition. When a man is sud
denly successful, when he makes
barrels of money too easily, he gen.
orally becomes insane; he believes
there can be no limit to his sue
cess; he refuses to use the slightest
safeguard in the protection of his
newly rich position. and the re-
suit is soon evident, for, with him,
it is but a step from wealth to
bankruptcy.
This is not the fault of mining,
otbCl pNNhuN piNeNiAeS
such an opportunity for easily &C
quired wealth; but it is due to the
fact that when success on a gigan-
tic scale comes to the average man,
he loses his keen business instinct,
if he ever had any, and goes as wild
as Spanish bull when red flag
is waved in it's face.
1t is really better for the mining
districts of the west when they can
attain prominence without the aid
of a boom. A camp that is sopened
and operated strictly on its merits
is in much better condition thar
one that was brought to life through
the throes of a boom; and, the mar
who has made big money through
the actual making of mine, aftel
days and months of toll and hard
ships, has not been carried off hi
feet and is more likely to holt
his own. and put his wealth to SOM
good use, than will the man VIII,
made his pile by selling pros
lpect in an undeveloped camp an
who dabbled in wildcats until h
could not tell whether he was a-fOo
or a-horseback, as the saying Il
Fortune is a tickle thing at best
but the success which comes to
easily is the hardest thing to elm
to, as hundreds of mining men {
