departments being ready for resump-
tion of mining operations. 1t is of In
terest to recall that the rehabilitation
of the surface works of the Belcher
has been brought about all within ten
weeks, the date of the disastrous fire
being on the evening of Tuesday, Aug.
9, when the flames wiped out every
vestige of the hosting plant. The
management of the property lost no
time in clearing up the wreck, the
work of reconstruction beginning al
most before the bent and twisted iron
work had a chance to cool off. The
result has been that in a remarkably
short space of time the surface equip
ment of the mine has been entirely re-
placed with up-to-date machinery and
corrugated iron buildings, so that the
property is now in excellent physical
condition and starts off in better shape
than ever. During the interruption
of work in the mine the shaft has been
kept in good repair and in all Levels
of the mine everything is in shape for
work.
At the time of the fire the Belcher
mine was reported to be working in an
improved grade of ore, and the report
for that week showed the extraction
was l3 ears of ore averaging 1926 per
ton from stope No. l on the 200 level
and 122 cars averaging 1888 from No.
2 stope on the same level. Work was
also under way in the raise on the 200
level in northeast crosscut No. l, and
81 cars averaging 1896 were saved.
Operations have been resumed at these
same points and the extraction of o~e
is now under way again and shipments
made to the Yellow Jacket mill.

GOldfielder Writes
of Gold Craze in Alaska

dreds of prospectors, some of them
mere boys scarcely of legal age, are
encountered plaeilg their monuments
on lodges WI. "A a-s fondly hoped to
prove %bonanzas.
Early in the morning long lires Of
pack trains can be seen leaving the
business section bound for the outly
ing camps. Pack animals are at a
premium, and most any old skate will
bring double it's value. The spirit of
optimism can be more readily under
stood when it is stated that every com
pany organized up to the present has
been able to subscribe it's treasury flo
~tations in Valdez; not a share of stock
having as yet been sold to outsiders.
An instance of the readiness in which
money can be raised here is that of a
mining company which notified the
public that 100 900 shares would. be
placed for subscription in the morning
at 25 cents per share. BY six O'Clock
that evening every share had been
sold and people clamored for another
allotment. The readiness on the part
of the public here to part with its hard
cash would make a "wildcatter'
gnaw his nail swith impatience were
he informed of his opportunities
missed.
Valdez is a town 13 years old and at
the present time numbers about 1900
people. 1t is the ocean terminus OF
the Valdez Fairbanks trail and the
headquarters of the Alaska road com
mission. The payroll of the commits
sion amounts to nearly $4,000 tins
year, and as the money is distributed
here each fall the little camp is ex-
tremely active during the winter. With
the impetus given it by the gold
strikes this fall it is safe to say that
Valdez will be the liveliest town in all
Alaska this winter.

NORTH STAR Mine TO
RESUME WORK soon

TONOPAH, Oct. 25. - According to
the present conditions the Rescue-Eula
will resume operations in the near flu
ture The force of men employed to
go over the machinery completed their
work in a remarkably short space of
Time, and the mechanism of the hoist
was found to be in irst-class working
order. The force is now at work re-
pairing the shaft under the supervision
of Andy Canivan, who will have charge
of the work under General Manager
Luckett. The timbering of the shaft
will need repairing in several places
and it is expected that the next week
or ten days should see That part of the
work completed.
The North Star Will then receive the
attention of the repairers. AT the pres
ent time the North Ste has a gasoline
hoist, and this will be supplemented
by an electrical hoist. The plans have
not been completed as yet, and it Is
not known whether additional depta
will be secured. This mine should be
in operation within a. month after the
repair work is started.

.FERNLEY BRANCH Is
Being CONSTRUCTED

RENO. Oct. 81. - Work has beel
started by the Southern Pacific com
pany on the construction of its new
line from Fernley, Washoe county, Ne.
yada. to klamath Falls, Ore. The in
~tention of the Hartman lines to com
plete the work at the earliest possible
moment is evidenced by this, as II
was not believed that actual construe
ton would be started until spring.
Forty carloads of the heaviest rails
used by roads in the world have been
unloaded at Fernley. Material yards
have been laid out at Fernley anil
Wadswortb, and grading has been be
gun, considerable progress having been
made west of Honey lake.
Susanville is the destination of the
road at once, it is believed, although
later the line will be pushed to Khan
ath Falls. 1t is also rumored that The
8. p. intends to cross the Sierras nj
Fredonia, a point 1000 feet lower
than Emigrant Pass, although slightly
longer. The fact that the company rs
double tracking the line between
Truekee and Sacramento and lowering
the grade seems to show that the pres
emit line will continue to be used for
fast passenger service and that the
new grade may be used for freight

The mill was placed in operation on
the Goth of April, and has produced
since that time the sun of $136,957.04
The dividends (including October)
have amounted to $50, 900. The COM
pany has in reserve $4,000 in the
shape of bullion and concentrates.
The remarkable success of the prop
erty has naturally excited the people
of this city until there is hardly an un-
located piece of ground within q radius
of ten miles. Fl. E. Ellis, or "Red,' =
as he is Familiarity known, is the orig
inal locator of the Cliff mine, and his
eccentricities make him a figure OF
more than ordinary interest to the
visitor in Valdez. Ellis is adorned
with a crop of hair that falls profusely
over his shoulders, its brilliant hue
being discernible for several blocks.
1t is said that he at one time located
a mine in the States and sold it for a
paltry few hundred dollars, he pur-
chasers later realizing 100000. Ellis
was so chagrined over his ill-fortune
that he swore he would never cut his
hair until he had found another mine
which would return, to him the sum he
had lost. He now stands in a fair way
to realize his wish several times.
At the present time most of the pub
lie interest is centered in Mineral
Gulch, about seven miles north of Val
DEE. Along Mineral Creek a number
of rich lodges have been located, the
quartz being alive with free gold.
Some of the assays run into the thoas-
ands of dollars per ron A piece of
quartz was brought into camp this
morning weighing about 30 poun is
which it is estimated will run 81 per
pound. In the windows of the bust.
ness houses can be seen specimens OF
gold quartz with the yellow metal
prominently exposed. In the hills hum

Mine MAKING
SHIPMENTS STEADILY

John Ryan, general manager for the
Tonopah and Tidewater railway and
representative for "Borax' Smith in
other capacities, was in Rhyolite the
first of the week in his private ear,
says the Rhyolite Herald. He was
accompanied by his daughter, Miss
Kathryn Ryan.
Mr.. Ryan came here on business con-
nected with the United States Borax
company, continuing his journey from
here to independence, the county seat
of Inyo county, California, in which
the c~ompany's properties are situated.
Mr.. Ryan said that rs men are en-
ployed at the Lila G.. borax mine, own
ed by the Smith interests. The output
is about $500 IONS a month, the pro-
duct being known as ~colmanite, which
is about 40 per cent borax. Unlike
the swamp deposits, colmanite oc-
ours in veins, like quartz ore deposits.
The Lila C. colmanite vein is one of
the largest as yet found.
Shipments from Lila c. are made tc
New York and Alameda.
The Smith interests have a force of
men at work in Death Valley, doing
the annual assessment work on borax
locations.

IS, Oscar A. Turner, millionaire mile
promoter and head of the tungsten
trust, returned last night from The
Hub, where he spent five days look

Mr.. Turner left this morning for

Anthony McCauley, formerly wei
known in Goldfeld and Tonopah, IS
now in Alaska, and writes the follow
ing interesting letter to the News, tell
ing of the great interest that is beirg
taken in mining In Alaska. and that
the era of the small mill has begun:
VALDEZ, Alaska, Oct. 81, 1910. :
Valdez is gold mad. The citizens, Old
and young, have turned prospec'
tor, leaving the town for days at
time in a partially deserted condition
Daily specimens of rich rock can b.
seen in the hands of some newly re
turned individual who has made his
"fnd,'' and who thenceforth classes
himself among the embryonic million
aires.
The old story of the newly discover
ed gold camp is being repeated an
excitement prevails on every sile
Stock companies are being formed and
development of the properties in >
number of instances is progressing a
a rapid stage. This activity is II
sharp contrast to the air of genera
apathy which has prevailed in this
community for the past ten years whe,
nothing seemed to interest the pros
pector but copper. The red metal wa'
all the vogue, and the rich gold-bear
ing quartz lodges were passed over witt
seeming Indifference. This condition
obtained until last summer, when tat
Cliff mine vas placed in operation, ant
since which time has paid big div
dends to the stockholders, returning
to them their original investment II
the first dividend.
The latter's mill, with but three
stamps, is saving $4,000 weekly, an.
the owners have several hundred thou
sand dollars blocked out which will
run them for the coming fiscal year

while Hamilton will be connected
with the other.
