large sum in
net PROFITS FOR
The PAST MONTH
REPORT OF TONOPAH MINING
COMPANY FOR SEPTEMBER
is VERY. GRATIFYING

The month of September has
been another good month for the
Tonopah Mining company, the report
just completed for that period show
ing net profit of $154,350, bring
ing the total net profits for July,
August and September close to the
half million mark, or to be more
exact, $490,000. The record for the
month shows that total of 1851
dry tons were crushed and treated
by the mill, which is nearly 1000
tons less than the preceding month,
which is accounted for by the fact
that September is one day shorter
than August and another day was
lost on Labor day. The average
value of the ore treated during Sep
tember was $21.70 a ton, which is
about the general average of the
ore for several months past, though
single months may show less or
greater value.
The shipments from the mill for
the month of September consisted
of 20,246 pounds of bullion, valued
at $224,470, and 107 dry tons of
concentrates, valued at $51,720, or
a total of $276,19O. The average
extraction for the past three months
is recorded as 92.4. This is rec
ord of which the management can
feel justly proud, and shows that
the mine is making a profit consid-
erably in excess of the dividends
| paid, which at present is 100000
a quarter. The recent strengthen
ing in the price of silver is most
pleasing to the management of the
big property, as it not only adds
greatly to the profits of the mine,
but it places considerably higher
valuation on the large amount OF
silver bullion owned by the COM
pany, but stored away at time
when silver was selling in the
neighborhood of 4S and 40 cents
an ounce. The price of bar silver
| quoted this week is higher than IL
has been for over two years.

Miner FALLS
down RAISE AFTER
Being INJURED
SUSTAINS A NUMBER OF PAIN
Full LACERATIONS ABOUT
THE HEAD

Tom Fahey, an employe of the
Tonopah Extension Mining company,
received injuries this morning while
at work in the mine, that will keep
him patient in the hospital for
several weeks to come. Fahey was
working in raise when falling
rock struck him on the head, caus-
ing laceration about four inches
in length. The force of the blow
caused him to lose his footing and
he fell to the level, about twenty
feet below.
Fahey fell head downwards and
when he struck the level he sus-
tanned additional injuries. His fore
head, when it came in contact with
the ground, received v shaped
injury that necessitated the taking
of several stitches by DR.. E. S.
Grigsby, who was summoned. The
miner evidently fell on a rock for
several of his upper front teeth
were knocked out while the lower
gums. were torn completely loose
from the teeth. The roots were ex-
posed and it required almost an
hours work to stitch the lacerated
flesh together. In addition Fahey
received laceration on the throat
about four inches across. Forum
ately no arteries were severed.
DR.. Grigsby had the injured man
taken to the Miners hospital where
the injuries were dressed. Fahey
is a recent arrival in Tonopah and
had only been working at the Elk
tension a short time.

FABULOUSLY RICH LEDGE
DISCOVERED NEAR ALPINE

A strike that has caused consid-
cradle excitement at Fallon occurred
in the Alpine district in eastern
Churchill county last week, when
Charles Afford, a prospector, dis
covered a ledge carrying free mill
ing gold to fabulous extent, at a
point three miles west of Alpine
postoffice. The picture rock is from
a ledge that has lain exposed and
unseen and apparently permeates an
immense porphyry dyke some hun
dred feet in width. The dixie has
been prospected time and again in
ford to find the gold bearing heart,
which, in the opinion of those who
have visited the scene of the strike,
is sure to develop into mine, be-
side which all others in this county
will pale. Samples of the rock
brought back by returning parties
bear out this belief in most elo-
quent manner, for golden seams run
through the rock in a manner that
corroborates at once the most ar
dent claims of the mining enthusi-
asts. Everywhere in the ledge,
which has been uncovered for a few
| feet only, is this same sprinkling OF
the precious metal.
BY making the discovery, Afford
has quickly risen from an unnoticed
prospector delving away in the hills
of this county for treasure to the
most sought man in the section
Mining men from everywhere are
importuning him for figure on hi:
group of claims and in the meen
time, locations in large number hays
been made on territory adjacent t.
his rich strike by those who have
visited the district. It's location
is such that there is hardly ;
chance in the minds of mining mel
who judge by precedent, but tha
another big paying mine of the bo
nanza sort will soon be added t.
this county's quota of producing
properties. Some of the samples
exhibited locally undoubtedly carr.
values of from $1,000 to $4,000
and the size of the ledge uncovered
makes us know that shipping oper
ations will quickly follow.

of having tomake a long haul to mar
ket have any restraining influence

He was a single man and had only
