MAKING fine RECORD
IN SINKING A SHAFT

The shaft of the Queen Consolidated
Mines company on the Atlanta was
down 615 feet Friday night, and rec
ord of operations in sinking is inter
esting. During the past 80 days the
shaft has gained 95 feet in depth, two
shifts of men working and using hand
steel The shaft is in the dacite. The
bore is Az by 8 feet in the clear, and
timbered with 1UxIu Incn t1mbers, this
meaning that hole 6x12 feet must be
broken. The timbers average in cos.
So or a trifie over per foot, and the
total cost of the last 95 feet of sink
ing shows a record, including timbers,
of but $22.34 per foot.
The leasing contract calls f-r the
sinking of a shaft 750 feet in depth.
No lateral work will be done until tina.

system is cut, IN which case a station
will be cut and development work at
that point done later.

CONSOLIDATED TO CANCEL ITS
TREASURY STOCK
Provision Insisted Upon by the New York Stock Exchange Which
Has Listed the SecurityThe Only Gold Stock the List

After a complete investigation of all
:, tho affairs of the Goldfeld Consoli.
s.,sd Mines company, which investiga-
.;or has been aided by Secretary A. H..
Howe, who is now in New York, the
,.o,a of control of the New York
stock Exchange has signiied it's will
l;ngness to place Goldfeld Consolidated
an ;ts board, Consolidated thus having
the distinction of being the only gold
stock on that exchange.
No official announcement has as yet
heeu made as TO the time when the
stock will be placed on the board. Con-
soldated has for some time been lead
inc the curb stocks in New York, and
for the past three months the PROPOSE
ton of listing it on the Stock Exchange
bas been under consideration, the first
heal announcement to this effect hav-
ing been published by The News some
two months ago.
The News is today advised by wire
from New York that the Stock Ex-
change has demanded that the unissued
stock of the Consolidated company be
eapeelled, and that this final term will
be complied with by the big company.
Of the total capitalization of the
Consolidated of 100000 shares of 4
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1910-06-25

par value Of $40 each, 3,559,09S shares
have been issued, there remaining in
the treasury 1,440,902 shares. If the
information received by The News
from New York is correct, these shares
will be cancelled, and on a basis of
$40 per share par value, the capitaliza-
tion of the big company cut down to
$35, ,59O,9SO.
When it is remembered that many
of the listed stocks, say, in coppers,
are selling above par on two per cent
dividend basis, it can easily be seen
that the listing of Consolidated, now on
20 per cent dividend basis, means a
possibility of the stock reaching far
above or several times its par value.
In fact the acceptance of the stock by
the Stock Exchange may in part az
count for the strong upward trend now
being experienced by Consolidated.
Locally, it is given out that all re-
pairs to the big mill Will have been
completed within two weeks time, and
that thereafter the big mill will be run
ming full capacity as before the fire.
The big belt conveyor is almost ready
for service, and when this is put in
commission again the temporary tram
way that has done such good work
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1910-06-25

since the middle of April will be dis
manteled. All the temporary work
will be torn down, all refuse and de-
bris cleared away, and the big mill soon
present, save for the segregation of
outside buildings, the same appearance
as before the fire. The outside build
ings, however, are placed further from
the mill, so that any fire in one of them
cannot communicate with the big mill
ing plant.
1t is predicted that the figures of pro-
duction for the month of June will
come close to setting a new productive
record, as shipments of rich ore to
smelters have continued and at the
same time so stamps have been drop
ping during the larger part of the
increase of ten stamps over
the month of May.
Underground, all operations are pro-
eeeding smoothly, the daily tonnage ex.
tracted coming very easy, aid develop
ment work constantly adding to the
tonnage put in sight. Many surf; ce
improvements are being made at the
same time. Summing up every thing, it
appears that the Goldfeld Consolidated
is just entering its days of greatest
prosperity.

CONTRACT MADE FOR
BUILDING new SHOPS

With the grading for the new shops
and other structures that the Tonopah
& Goldfeld railroad is to build in this
city practically completed, the contract
for the construction work has been let
to Charles Kline, a contractor of this
city, and work will be started next
week.
While the concrete work for founda-
tions, etc., is being done at this end,
Contractor skline will have a force OF
men busy at Millers, tearing down the
machine shops, roundhouse, etc. at that
place, all this material to be brought
to Goldfeld and used. where possible,
in the new construction work.
The contract calls for the completion
of the work by the first of September.
BY that time the oil tanks, water tanks,
etc. now at Millers will be installed
here, and the new buildings be ready
for occupancy by the railroad. By next
Tuesday the railroad gang will have
completed the tracks to the site of the
new depot and other structures that
will be erected, and then materials will
be brought in and unloaded right
where needed by the contractor. Some
so men will be placed at work at once,
and as tie preliminary work is COM
pleted more men will be added to the
working force until approximately 100
men are employed in construction and
other work.
With the removal of the present rail-
way equipment from Millers, Tonopah
will be left on the cutoff, and a stub
train and the necessary depot force at
Tonopah will be all that is left to that
town. The stub train will meet the
through trains at Millers station, and
the heavy trains will no longer be
hauled up the heavy grade to the silver
camp, as passengers will be transferred
at the Junction. This will be ma
terial saving to the railway company,
and at the same time it will enable the
through trains to make better time,
as the delay occasioned by the "side
trip to Tonopah will have been
eliminated.

property and the way its finances have
been handled. Goldfeld people hail
this new development with pleasure, as
giving the camp recognition that it
has not before enjoyed, and Consoli-
dated officials and stockholders feel
that they have reached long desired
goal, although the goal is merited. That
the stock exchange demands the can
collation. of the 1,440,902 shares of
stock that are in the treasury is tri
vial matter, they think, for the COM
pany is beyond the place where it
needs TO sell treasury stock for any
purpose.
Within two weeks the Consolidated
will have completed all repairs neees-
STATED by the big fire of April 9th,
and the entire 100 stamps dropping as
of old, and it is believed that the
production will keep inching up little
by little until net profit of 100000
per month will be the average. The
company has made great showing dur
ing the past three months with a
crippled mill, and with the mill com
plete again the production should go
still higher, as should the net profit,
for during the past three months re-
pairs have materially increased the net
cost per ton. 1t is believed that even
after the mill is running full capacity,
however, some shipments TO smelters
will continue, the ore thus handled be-
ing from those levels where there is a
heavy copper content ard the smelters
affordiEg higher percentage of saving
than does the big reduction plant that
was constructed especially for the
eold-silver and gold ore that has made
the mine famous. Underground devel-
| opments in the Consolidated estate,
| especially at Scpth, point to the belief
that the property is just entering into
| its greatest period of prosperity.
The Florence property is steadily
milling 80 tons of ore per day, and
the very lowest value that can be
placed upon this ore is $40 per ton,
actual extraction. Although for a
long time the mill had ITS ups and
downs, and there were number of
radical changes in equipment and
treatment, the plant is now going along
without hitch or jar, and is making
higher average saving than is its
big neighbor, the Consolidated. The
| bullion tax statement for the first quar-
| ter does not show up very well. When
| Florence officials were asked about
that $11 900 net profit for the quar-
ter, and what had become of the rest
of the money, they said: "Oh, we

is believed that there are more than
six tons of ore put in sight for every

is being opened up. Before the en.i

How TO Brush Your Teeth.

There are harmful as we'll as
beneficial ways of brushing teeth
A too vigorous application of
the brush crosswlse of the teeth
may result in forcing the gums
away from the necks Of the teeth,
leaving the roots more or less ex.
posed. The gums require the
friction of the brush as well as
the teeth out this friction should
be applied in such a way as to
force the gum down over the tooth
instead of pressing 1T away. To
accomplish this the brush should
be gwen a rotary motion, letting
the bristles lmpinge against
the upper ones on the downward
trip and against the lower ones
on the upward trip. This will al.
so tend to throw the bristles in
between the teeth aud force out
any particles of food which may
be lodged between them.
II the gums show tendency
to bleed in brushing, the brush
should be continued IN this way
with cold water till the bleeding
stops, and this means the gums
will be hardened and become nor
NAL If this does not cure the
gums the case should be referred
to a dentlst TO learn if there are
not some hard deposits forming
under the gums in the way of tar
tar.
The teeth should be brushed
at least twice day, but particu.
larlY at night just before retiring
During the hours of the night,
when the fluids of the elements
which produce decay have bet
ter opportunity to work than al
any other time, and If food mater
ial or foreign matter is allowed tC
remain between the teeth al
night the teeth are almost certain
TO decay.
With palnstaking care during
childhood and ordinary care sui
sequently the teeth OF the.avei
age individual may be preserved
through life, and this would mean
much for the betterment of the
race.-The Designer for August
