Pretty Good Definition.

definition of the height Of aggravation,
by a gentleman in rather shaky boots,
whom we encountered in a well-known
hostelry the other day. struck us as
being particularly choice.

men," said this pothouse humorist, set

ALBERGER PLUGS
FOR NEVADA

LONN BEACH, CAL, May 16.-Sit-
ting down under the pergola of the
beautiful Hotel Virginia, Long Beach,
California, and enjoying the breezes
from the Pacific Ocean, Mr.. w. r. AL
berger traffic manager of the Tonopah
& Tidewater railroads, recently talked
very entertainingly with one of the
editors of the California News service
upon the business conditions of Nevada.
Mr.. Alberger said that one of the
very encouraging items of news is that
just given out by t he state bullion tax
agent showing that the production of
minerals in Nevada gained in value
about $10,000,000 in 1909 over the fig
ures of 1908; an increase of 40 per cent
in one year. He pointed out the
tremendous copper deposits of Ely be-
lieved by many competent mining men
to be as great as those of Butte, Mon
tana; the steady and generous produe.
ton of the silver mines of Tonopah
and the gold mines of Goldfeld and
vicinity; together with the r~ejuvena-
ton of the great mines of the Comstock
lode, which is being undertaken by a
wealthy syndicate of New York bank
ers headed by Lewiston; all promising
still greater mineral output for Ne
vada in the coming years.
Added to this is the constantly in
creasing acreage of the state that is be-
ing brought under cultivation in sew
eral of the great valleys of Nevada, an
increase that will receive a tremendous
impetus on the completion of the mann
moth Truckee Irrigation Enterprise now
being carried to completion by the
United States government.
Mr.. A%lberger, very aptly, remarked
that Nevada is not making quite as
much noise as it did a few years ago;
for the day of the ~megaphone boomer rs
past, and Nevadans are making less
noise, but more money. They are not
selling shares, but raising stock. They
are not mining in the Public Pocket, but
digging in Nevada's treasure-houses
and producing it's minerals. They are
not watering stocks, but ~irrigating
their agricultural lands and making rich
ranches where u~nattractive deserts for
merly were.

PIONEER LITIGATION is
PRACTICALLY ALL ENDED

Judgment has been rendered for the
defendant in the Nye county district
court in the Ease of the Manganese Bull
frog Mining company versus the In
diana Nevada Mining company. The
suit is the outgrowth of the Pioneer
suit that was decided several weeks
ago by Judge Averill. The court held
that the Indiana claims had been made
prior to the date of the Manganese
Bullfrog company claims.
The litigation in the Pioneer dis
trict is now about ended and the
grounds that have been tied up for so
long will be operated. The develop
ment and advancement of the section
has been seriously retarded by the
many suits but there is hardly any
thing now to hinder the district from
rapidly advancing to the front again
and demanding the attention due from
the mining world.

JACKPOT MINING COMPANY
TO REORGANIZE AND WORK

change their shares for an equal num-
Der of shares in the new company, on
payment of the present selling price
of Jack Pot stock, which is about three
cents per share.
The time for acceptance or rejection
of the offer to exchange Jack Pot stock
for that of the Atlas Wonder Mining
company, which is the name of the OPP
Grating company, is limited to June /,
1910. This means that the time has
arrived to either fish or cut bait. The
operating company has agreed to pro-
coed with the development of the mine,
to pay off its Indebtedness, and to build
the mill, and this time limited seems to
indicate that no more time is to be vast
ed in waiting for something to turn up.
The gentlemen at the head of the
Jack Pot company are in control of the
Bench creek water supply, which is
ample for all purposes at the mill, and
is already piped into town. The neces-
sary power arrangements have been
made, and there now remains nothing to
do but to proceed with the erection of
the mill, resume work upon the mine,
and go to producing bullion bars.

1t now looks as though the long JOB
of "ishing" for the string of tools
that was lost in the well of the Nevada
Bay State Oil company in the well that
is being put down on the Blair marsh
is about over. On Tuesday evening the

the whole thing was raised for a lit

casing, tools and all, will have beer
pulled, ana drilling then be resumed.
The entire string of four-inch casing.
save the bottom section of 10 feet, has
been pulled. 1t has been to get this
piece of casing up, containing the tools.
that the efforts of the operators have
been directed to for some weeks, as If
was realized that this would be easier
than to get The tools alone. As soon
as this last section is pulled, new cas-
Ing will be run down, and then drilling
viii be resumed, and it is hoped, with
early success.

Another important step has been

district of Wonder, says the Wonder
News. The Jack Pot Consolidated
Mining company, whose property en-
braces a very large acreage in the most

section of the district, has evolved a
plan by which capital may be raised
for developing the mine and erecting
the long needed and much talked of
mill.

sued to stockholders, the company is
practically ~insolvent, and as it is a Ne

stock, and the creditors of the com-

the ground for a period of twenty-five
years, at five per cent royalty on the
net proceeds of the mine. Stockholders
