The resumption of operations at the
Eclipse mill as a custom plant has ere
ated a big interest in leasing locally,
and since the sampler was placed IN
commission Oct. 20, several lots of ore
have been shipped to the plant and
treated.
The several ~leasers express them
selves as well satisfied with the service
given, and in all probability steady
shipments will follow. None of the
~leasers, however, are in a position 10
make big shipments, such as the plant,
with a capacity of 40 tons daily, cou''i
handle.
The Diamond leasers have contribut-
ed the greatest amount of ore to the
ten days run, the first shipment
amounting to 31Hs tons which sampled

| Diamond, about 40 tons, is now at the
plant and is being treated. Frank
Murphy and associates, who are oper-
ating the lease, have made arrange
ments to move the gasoline hoist now
in place at the Amethyst shaft, and as
soon as this is installed at the Dta'
mond, shipments may be largely IN
creased. Until the power hosting
equipment is installed, shipments will

RAWHIDE POWER Line
SOON TO Be COMPLETE

r. c.. Dobbins, consulting engineer
and superintendent of transmission for
the Hydro-E Electric company OF Bodie,
California, and also holding the same
position with the Nevada-C California
Power Co. of Goldfeld, is in Rawhide
on a business trip. In conversation
with Mr.. Dobbins, the Press-Times re-
porter was informed that the surveyors
for the line were now on the fiat below
town, running the line from Rawhide
to Fairview. He states that the line is
completed as far as Lucky Boy from
the seat of power in Mono county,
California. Complete surveys are now
completed to Rawhide and the work OF
putting in the poles and stringing the
wire is now in progress.
Mr.. Dobbins will be in camp for
several days and will make frequent
trips out on the line to supervise the
surveys, he having his own auto here.
He states that he is satisfied that the

lighted by electricity by that time.
The company expects to have the line
into Fairview shortly after Jan. !.
The completion of the power line
into Rawhide will mean much to the
camp in the way of reducing the cost
of operating the mills and hosting
plants here and will undoubtedly add
much to the prosperity and produetiv-
ity of the camp. Our people should
in every way encourage the enter
prise as it will do as much as any one
thing toward the development Of the
mines of the district Rawhide Press

TUNGSTEN ORES GIVE UP
SOME VERY FANCY VALUES

tons of this ore already taken out, AMI
about 100 tons blocked out. No esti-
mate can be made as to the volume of
the ore deposit on the four claims
which they own.
The ledge on which Griffith and Ray
mond are at work runs in width from 4
inches to 2 feet. The ore is deposited
in stringers in a p~orphyritic dixie some
80 feet wide, between two granite
walls, running north and south. The
owners have sunk a shaft 20 feet Il
depth, have a drift in 80 feet and a
crosscut the same distance, and sew
eral open cuts. They propose to push
development work, and in the sprihg
will erect a small concentrating plant.
The significance of this discovery of
Griffith and Raymond S, and its import
ance to the camp, lies in its exempliii-
cation of the fact that the area of
ground in this district in which tung-
stem surface showings are found is 81
least several mines square. If a dis
covery like this will interest capital III
the possibilities of tungsten in the
camp, this entire section will benefit.
The tungsten discoveries of ShoshoEe
and Jefferson canyons, added to this
latest, offer inviting possibilities.

constructed to supply the new gold
mill just completed by the Amalgamat-
ed Nevada Mines company to treat the
ores from the San Pedro mine anil
handle custom ores of the Blackhorse
district. Mr.. Gaby expects to return
to San Pedro tomorrow.
The new gold mill has been erected
by the Taylor Engineering Works and
is pronounced absolutely the finest and
best gold mill of it's size in the state.
1t is equipped with the latest and best
machinery and has a capacity for
treating about 30 tons of ore in 2f
hours. From two rock breakers the
ore will be elevated to a sizer fro.n
which il will drop into the stock bin
behind the stamps after a sample has
been automatically cut out by a Visea
sampler. From the stock bin the ofe
will be fed to the stamps and after
crushing will flow from the mortars

Assay returns of $500 a ton.

Assay returns OF $oOO a Ton.
That is the kind of cheering infor-
nation j. E. Griffith and Jack Ray
mond received this week from the
Henry E. Wood Ore Testing Co. Of
Denver, to whom they had sent SAM
pies of ore from their silver-tungsten
property, four miles southeast of town
in Granite canyon, says the Round
Mountain Nugget. The actual figures
were 500 ounces of silver and 1878 pc:
cent of tungstic acid. These are the
best figures that they have ever re-
ceived, although no samples have
yielded less than $50.
The Denver assayers write that they
will have to do some experimental
work to determine the best method of
saving all the values. The ore sub
mitted to them, they write, is the first
of the kind they ever saw, in that It
has the silver and tungsten together IN
the gangue, and this is such an unusual
freak in mineralogy that some plan
must be devised for their separation.
The owners will direct the assayers to
figure the thing out.
This report means, in plain English,
that Messrs. Griffith and Raymond
have a bonanza. They have some IL

PIOCHE DISTRICT IS
Scene OF ACTIVITY

PIOCHE, Nov. 4. After having
spent some time at the Demijohn prop.
erty at Phoebe, Owen Bailey, manager
of the property, has returned to Salt
Lake. He was enthusiastic over the
general awakening of the old camp,
and that there is more activity around
various properties today than for a
year or more is assured.
Mr.. Bailey will make some needed
purchases of machinery for the Deml-
john for deeper mining. Some good
ore bodies have been exposed at com
paratively shallow depth, and the in
tentlon is to secure greater depth on
these ores. Three shifts are working
on the Consolidated Phoebe, and the
main shaft is being driven deeper, the
objective point being the old Ray
mond Ely ore bodies. This is ON the
Susan Dustin claims.
Some experimental Juggling of ores
is going on at the Prince Consolidated.
1t is generally understood that this

by the Nevada Utah and Ken
tucky Coalition company.

company will soon let a contract sor

MILL CONSTRUCTION GOING
AHEAD NOW IN WONDER

This week the outlook for the early
completion of the mill is more cheerful
than has been the cas- for a long
time, says the Wonder News. The two
traction engines succeeded in compiler
ing their long delayed trip from Fal.
lon and brought in a heavy load of
machinery and supplies for the mine
and mill.
What looked more like business.
however, was the arrival of three long
freight teams, heavily loaded with
building material. The old prairie
schooner is not a very fancy looking
apparatus, aud is probably not so up
to-date a means of transporting com
modities, but it is the old, tried and
reliable method. When engineered by
an experienced 'slong-line skinner" ii
is the surest means yet found for get

a rough country.
The eompany's can Is busily en-.
gagged in hauling material for the con.

from one of the dumps of the mine to
a convenient platform for mixing the

activity prevails.
