ENGINEER TO
FILE REPORT
H. II. PLATE LEAVES TOMORROW
MORNING TO SUBMIT RESULT
OF EXAMINATION ON SOUTH
ERN NEVADA PROPERTIES.

H. r. Plate, who has been expert
ing and measuring up the ore ton
mage in number of properties at
Tybo, Reville, Rattlesnake, Golden
Arrow, Clifford, Glendale, Bellhel-
en- and Silver Bow, for the last sew
eral months, arrived in East Ely
Tuesday evening and will spend
about a week here getting his data
in shape before going east. In an
interview last evening with a News
representative, Mr.. Plate stated that
he had just completed a thorough
examination of the Two G property
at Tybo and found it an excellent
property, with much ore blocked
out, carrying commercial values if
there was railroad in that section.
The property had been unwatered to
the 400 foot level so that the exam
ination could be made. According to
Mr.. Plate, the property had been de-
veloped with the view of opening up
the carbonate ores alone and the sui
phides were given but little atten-
tion, which was a mistake, as the
latter are the ones most sought after
these times. The principal values
carried in the Two G ores are lead
silver with a little gold. This prop
erty is traversed with a true fissure
vein. the walls of which are clean cut
and give every indication of going
to a considerable depth; the forma-
tion in that section also warranting
that opinion. The fissure has been
filled with an intrusion of light grey
porphyry, on the hanging wall of
which the ore occurs. The carbonate
ore bodies are found above the 800,
while the sulphides are below that
level. AS soon as Mr.. Plate reaches
New York he will submit his report
and expects a statement to be given
out by the promoters of the proposed
Ely-Goldfeld railroad as to their in
tentions within a few weeks of the
filing of his report. Mr.. Plate was
assisted by Neil McGill in his exam
ination of the different properties,
while w. A. Simpkins did the assay
ing and draughting work. Cleve Nc
Gill and w. II. Annis were also of
the party.

BUSY DAYS AT GIROUA
Pumping Station at 1900 Level L.
Receiving Finishing Touches.

Work is going on as usual at the
property of the Giroux Consolidated,
and there is the greatest animation
both above and below ground. At
the 1900 foot level they are busy
putting on the finishing touches to
the pumping station, while the up
raise is being continued FROM the
proximity of the 1900 foot point 10
the 1900. 1t is understood that The
crosscut out to the big orebody the
Alpha is to be run from the Loo
and maybe from the 1.400 foot mark.
Meantime the first problem u be
finished Is the handling of the water,
which is coming In at fairly good
progress. This problem has been
solved of course by the pumping
plant, and when the latter is In oper-
alton the more water developed the
better will the management like 1t;
for the greater will be the assurance
of sufficient supply to operate a re-
duction plant. With the plant at
work there will be no interference
with sinking or lateral operations,
and work in these directions VIII

BALL GAME TO-DAY.

A ball game between a picked nine
from Ely and McGill and the Nevada
Northern boys Is scheduled for this
afternoon at East Ely park and there
is no question but what it will be the
banner game of the season from an
attendance standpoint, as all of the
fans have been anxiously awaiting
the coming together of these two
mines, as the last game they played
was by long odds the most exciting
and interesting one of the season.
The railroaders have been anxious to
get a return game ever since they
met with defeat several weeks ago,
but owing to the inability of several
of the MeGill boys to play for the
last couple of Sundays, there has
been no exhibition of the national
game.

BUSINESS ON
THE Up GRADE
PESSIMISM ON THE RUN AND
OPTIMISM WAVING THE WAND
OF PROSPERITY OVER THE
LAND.

The actions of the week became
the substance of the shadow of the
week which went before. Every
thing throughout the country seems
at the brightest; industry alter iu-
dustry is being set in motion, and the
crop reports where there has been
some little doubt, have set fears at
rest. The pessimist has taken flight,
or dropped from sight. The optimist
bears the wand of prosperity an1
floats il above all sections througout
the land.
A little sag in the market came at
the end of the week; but it was only
the ship CT success falling off in the
wind to take tack that she might
round to with the the full breeze Of
advance behind her. filling her sails
and driving her forward through The
sea of progress The market has had
its start on the upward wey, and
these little drops are the sure indi-
cations of higher rebound. Toe
concensus Of opinion throughout the
country appears to be that the first
of the month will see everything IN
full swing; and everything seems &c
lOiHl " inC NOiiC'thCoo VI tnal plC-
diction.
Financial papers which were in tie
line OF the doubling ones are buoyant
over the situation, and the biggest in
terests throughout the country are in
the bull class. With everyone pull
ing in the same direction everything
is bound to go that way, and If there
is a single reason that blocks the
path of prosperity, it has rot yet
made its appearance on the horizon.
All kinds of securities are in the most
healthful condition, and attention is
being turned to the precious metal
and copper stocks of Nevada.
The situation in this district is iii
line with the rest of the progress
which is being made. True, there
has been a curtailment of output;
but this is only for little while, and
when the time is up production will
be greater than ever. Work at all
the mines is in full blast and more
men are being put on and more will
be needed later on. The stocks Of
the district have been as active as
those of any section in the United
States, and nobody need worry be-
cause there has been a little falling
off in prices. 1t is the tacking of the
ship of success to come about again
under full head of sail.

AUDITORIUM THEATRE

The engagement of THE Colonial
Players Co." at the Auditorium thea.
tire proved very pleasant surprise
to the theatre goers of this city, af-
ter being "stung" by several organi-
cations of questioned repute. The
Colonials floated into the city like a
summer breeze, and as welcome as a
rose in spring time. Their first
production "At Valley Forge" a
colonial costume play from the pen
Of Mr.. VIM. e. Roberts was such a
success with the patrons Of the Audi
torium last Tuesday night, that the
reputation of the colonials was firm
~ established. On Wednesday even
ing Wilkie Collins famous story,
"The New Magdalen" was presented
to a full house, which thoroughly
enjoyed this beautiful play. Friday
night will be the closing Of the en-
gagement, on which occasion, and by
special request, the company will
present that celebrated western play
The Girl Of the Golden West" Mr..
Buchanan having prevailed upon the
colonial players to remain over one
extra night.
OF the company we must say they
are the best that have played here in
many seasons, and as we say above,
they came as pleasant surprise to
all. Mr.. e. Forrest Taylor, the hand
some leading man, is an artist of rare
ability. Miss Ada Daniels, the lead
Ing lady is both beautiful and ac-
Miss Pearl Snyder, the
ingenue of the company, clever
and graceful actress. Too much can
not be said of the work of Mr.. ySeldy
Roach, the comedian, and Mr. Jack
both giving strong support
we may say strong artistic support, ,,
which is necessary to a successful
production Of such plays as produced
~ the Colonial Players. Mr.. Ralph |
Cloninger, Mr.. Harry Young and
Miss Walkey deserve mention for
heir work. Well, all in all, we say

HAMILTON IN THE JUG

H. H. Hamilton the advertising So
hcitor who has been mentioned In
this paper several times, was found
guilty of obtaining money under
false pretenses at Missoula, and il
serving 80 days in jail.
When they are through with him
he will be brought back to Idaho
and the Register of Idaho Falls will
proceed against him for forgery. A
hotel man there wants to get crack
at him for beating his board bill;
Alma Marker wants to do something
with him for running of with a fine
gun which he borrowed or rented,
and there are eight other charges
against him at that place.
He took few dollars out of Black
foot that he was not entitled to, and
a gold watch that he bargained for,
valued at $50, was placed on exhi-
bit in Christ's window, and about the
time Hamilton was here the last
time, somebody broke hole in the
window and took the watch. 1t
cost Mr.. Christ $26 to have new
glass put in and the supposition is
that Hamilton had hand" in that
broken window.
II newspaper men will carefully
advertise these fellows and pursue
the Williams" they will become as
scarce as hens teeth.
