NEVADA CONS
GREAT OUTPUT
QUARTERLY REPORT FILED
WITH ASSESSOR SHOWS
SPLENDID RETURNS NOTWITH-
STANDING ADVERSE WEATHER

During the quarter ending March
81. Nevada Consolidated had 653.-
3S5 tons of ore treated with a gross
return of s2,296, 6,036.15. according
to the quarterly report of the COM
pany filed with the county assessor.
The net profit of this was s490.-
1875.
The output was materially reduced
for the three months of the first
quarter in consequence Of the cold
weather. and the shortage of water
caused by the freezing up of the
springs; and the production for the
next quarter promises To be consid-
erably greater. They are working
day and night at the steam shovel
pit. and seem to be anxious 10 get
out all the ore that can be mined and
shipped.
While there has been considerable
talk of restricting copper products
in the United States. IL cannot be
said that they are doing anything of
the kind at Copper Flat; and the
today stands second In the
ranks OF producers, Utah Copper be-
ing the leader.

TAKES FRENCH LEAVE.
McGill Boarding House Keeper
Leaves Many Debtors.

Mike Ratakovieh. an Austrian
boarding house keeper in McGill,
made n quick disappearance on Fri
day night. leaving merchants in the
Greek colony of the smelter town to
mourn not only his loss. but the loss
of i'm the neighborhood of 81 400 in
cash besides. Ratakoyieh made his
collections on Friday which was pay
day at the big plant, and forgetting
to pay his creditors, laded away into
the night.
Among the heaviest losers by the
of the Austrian are the
Steptoe Meat company. the Grecian
store. the Greek Baker Shop and the
Copper Club. A rough estimate
places his indebtedness in MeGill at
the sum of $1,000.
Ratakovich was last seen at about
five o'clock on Friday evening. and
then the men he owed began to get
restless as he had not made any set
tlement during the day. Still Ii was
a busy day with all the merchants
for there was much more money COM
ing in from other quarters, and it
was not until seven o'clock that they
started to hunt for the missing debt
or. Then descent was made upon
the boarding house with the result
that the missing man could not be
found; neither could any of the mon
ey.
The mans wife was questioned
but she could not say where her hus-
band was, and she knew nothing of
the money collected py him. Depu-
ties Newman and Holmes of the
sheriff's Office were notified at once,
and they joined in the search. The
trains leaving McGill yesterday
morning were closely scrutinized.

Number of Parties ave for Well
Known Fishil Grounds.

The fishing season opened on last
Monday, the first day of May, and
already number of Isaac Waltons
have been out with rod and line
hooking the unsuspecting members
OF the finny tribe. Today will wit
ness a number of departures for the
happy fishing grounds, and to-
morrow should see fish in plenty
throughout the district.
One party leaves early this morn
ing by automobile for Spring Valley,
expecting to return this evening with
fish TO cook. This party is compos-
ed of John West and d. B. Leyson of
McGill, Frank Galloway and Percy
Hull of Ely. Another party leaves
East Ely for Steptoe Creek and it's
tributaries comprising Harry Steb-
bins. Bert Manasse, "Chippy" Will
son and Jesse Edison, and still an
other is headed for Duck Creek and
tributaries composed of j. S. Ben.

GOOD SHOWING AT LEAD KING.

A. p. Spitko, of Salt Lake, a
large stockholder of the Lead King
Mining company. spent several days
in the district the past week and in
company with E. ID. Miller, president
of the company, made an inspection
of the property. Recent develop
ments indicate that large ore body
will be opened in the near future on
their Duck Creek property that will
enable them to begin shipping be.

construction of a lead stack near
here. The Lead King is on the east
side of the range driving a tunnel to
the west while on the west side of
the range the Ely Gibraltar is rum
ming a tunnel to the east and both
companies have excellent showings.
1t is expected that the results obtain
ed by these companies will lead to
much activity by others holding
property in Duck Greek this sum-
mer and development work will be
prosecuted on a much larger scale
than for some time.

PROGRESS AT BOSTON ELY.
Formation Similar to That Recent
ly Encountered In lack Shaft.

Boston Ely is rapidly proving up
and is taking ore out of the drift to
the west at the 1,245-foot level. 1t
is good looking ore and they have
not yet encountered the contact
where they expect to get the big
strike. They are drifting through
a lime stone formation, and on the
other wall is porphyry. On the
1 1,245-foot level they have started a
winze which Is down six feet and
which 1t is expected to sink 25 feet
to determine what is at that depth.
They have reached the water level
or rather. in the drift are just above
it, for the water does not overflow
at that point, coming just to the
floor of the level. The formation in
the Boston Ely is similar for all the
world to that of the Zack shaft
of the Ely Consolidated at the
other end of this part of the dis
trict, which makes the situation very
interesting. With a little more de-
velopment it looks as IL Boston Ely
should come into her own, and be in
position to commence blocking out
the ore

The ex-Positor's slate was smash

when the city election of officers was
held in Ely. and the ex-acting and
ex-lieutenant governor was relgat-
ed to the ranks of more exes. There
was not a very strong line drawn
with regard to party affiliations. The
ex-Positor just told the people how
to vote, and they cast their votes In
the opposite direction.
A. L. Parker was elected mayor.

II cannot be said that Mr.. Parker

MRS. JENKINS ENTERTAINS.

About fifty ladies spent a most
delightful afternoon with Mrs
Charles Jenkins at her beautiful
home in McGill Friday, when this
charming hostess threw open her
spacious apartments to her friends.
The dining room decorations, where
delicious refreshments were served,
were beautiful. The tea table was
gracefully presided over by Mrs.
Henry Byrne and Mrs. Joseph Ste
vens assisted by Miss Jaccard, Miss
Duddleson and Mrs. Johnson. OF
the many happy occasions afforded
by Mrs. Jenkins to her friends this
was one of the most pleasant, 1t
bringing together ladies from Nc

JACK CARPENTER AND SAILOR
GORDON HEROES OF FIFTY
FIGHTS-LUCHESI AND GER
AGILITY N PRELIMINARY.

A twenty round boxing contest is
scheduled for next Saturday night
in the Ely baseball park, and the in
dications are that it will be a rat
ting good fight. The contestants
are well matched. are oldtimers in
the ring for their ages, each being
the hero of more than fifty fights.
The principals are Jack Carpenter of
Denver and Sailor Gordon of San
Fran cisco. And this exhibition will
be case OF give and take, a fight
for blood with no quarter asked for
nor given.
The men will fight at las pounds,
weigh In at the ringside, and both
are at this time in prime condition.
Both men have splendid records in
the ring, both being fast. clever and
strong. Carpenter has fifty-ninei
fights to his credit. OF which he has
lost but FIVE. In this record he scor-
ed nineteen knockouts, twenty
four decisions and eleven draws;
and that is going some. Sailor Cor
don has faced fifty-one opponents.
and has to his credit seventeen
knockouts. nineteen decisions, thir-
teen draws, and has lest only two
contests.
A more evenly matched pair from
point OF record would be hard to
draw to; and it looks like lovely
billiards for Saturday night 1t Is
ten to one bet, If betting were al
lowed, that the people will get a run
for their money. and at that there
a ~ nf in
waged on the gladiators, with the
scales OF odds at even balance.
There will sure be something doing.
Tex Hall of the Northern Hotel is
the promoter of the contest, and is
sparing no pains TO make il a sue
cess. He announced last night that
there would be a preliminary bout
of six rounds between Arr I.uchesi
and Tom Geraghty, and this ought
TO be another corker, although Lu-
chest outweighs his opponent in the
neighborhood of 80 pounds. But
GeraChtg is agile, has a good punch
and a quick getaway. and will prob
ably keep away from his heavy an
tagonist Luchesis fight will be
roughing IL. The referee for this
contest will be selected at the ring
side.
The preliminary will start at 3 80
promptly, and the main event will
be pulled off at nine o'clock snarp.
For the latter Curley Rhue. the well
known sport of the smelter town,
will act as referee. Tickets for the
contest will be on sale this morning
at Clarks Drug Store and the Step
toe Drug company
The arrangements for the contest
are going on apace in the Ely park
The ring will be set close 10 the

the place has already been wia1,
remaining but to turn on
the electric juice just before time is
called. A canvas roofing will be put
above the ring for the double pur-
pose of projecting the spectators
and the gladiators from the possible
of the night and to shut
out the rough neeks who might
gather on the hillside.

and before the main line train left a
posse of men were out securing the
hills for the missing man, Deputy
Holmes being In the van of the
chase. Up to last night nothing had
been heard from the Austrian.
There are some who think it may
be possible that Ratakovich had some
business elsewhere: but others be-
lieve that the fact he had collected
the money is too significant. A year
ago just about this time there was
another of those disappearances from
McGill and the merchants still mourn
the loss of $500. 1t will be re-
mem bered that a Greek made his
getaway from Riepetown last year,
taking with him $1,000. and he has
never been heard from either.

Half the cost of millxman's milk is the cost of
the daily delivery. We save all that. And by
removing two-thirds of the water, we save in
