GOOD FOR ELY REVENUE.

A new strike has been made at the
225-foot mark of the shaft on the Ely
Revenue ground, and it is reported
that values as high as 500 a ton
have been found. The Revenue prop
erty adjoins the Chairman on the
south and includes some of the old
est locations in the district. Gold
has been developed in quantities on
the Chairman.
Only four men are at work on the
Ely Revenue, development having
been resumed short time ago with
the idea in mind of building a mill
on the property in the spring. 1t
was estimated at the time work was
resumed that there were in sight
100000 of ore, and the ore was
valued at an average of but $40 a
ton. This new find will greatly in
crease the value of the ore now in
the mine.

EAST ELY WAS THERE.
How Arthur Smith From the Sage
Brush State Found the Way to
Get a Pullman When There
Were No Pullmans.

Arthur Smith, manager of the Ely
Securities company, and kindred as
sociations, returned from an eastern
trip on Friday night. Mr.. Smith was
a busy man while in New York, and
being uncertain in his movements.
could not foretell the exact date of
his departure for the west. He was
finally ready to leave on last Satur-
day, and then found to his dismay
that Pullman reservations could not
be secured. When it became known
to the railroad officials that time was
the essence of his westward trip, they
Immediately made arrangements with
the Pullman people to put on an ex-
ira car on the Lake Shore Limited,
twenty-four hour run to Chicago. Mr..
Smith will be surprised to know that
his New York friends thought so
much of this achievement that they
sent the news of 1t by mail; and who
will say that East Ely has lost it's in
f1uence abroad?

sCRAPPING SWANS IN LAKE.
The Imported Blacks Make 1t Lively
for the White Birds at the Out
set, But Now Dwell in Peace
and Harmony.

The black swans In Lake Stevens,
at the border of the court house
grounds are settling down to a sem
blance of decency. The blacks are
the scrappers of the swan famil;
and they made life a burden for the
whites for quite awhile after their
arrival. In the daytime they herd
ed by themselves as II their white
brother and sister did not exist; but
as soon as darkness. overspread the
lake, they made for, the whites and
pecked the life out of them. This
fact got to 10 common knowledge,
and parties were made up from the
district to go and see the nightly
fights in lieu of the more noisy and
pretentious badger and bull dog
scraps.
The age of the black swans is said
to be three years, while that of the
whites is variously estimated at from
21 to 35 years. This latter Is no
reflection on the youth of the white
birds, for their species live from 100
to 400 years; so the white Miss Swan
has no cause to blush for her wrink-
les, IL she has any. The song of
the dying swan Is said to be the most
beauaiful of any ever listened to; but
it looks as il the youngest inhabi-
tant of the district will have to fore
go that pleasure and hand it down
to his great-great-great, and then
some, grandchildren, and the present
generation will have to be content
with the phonograph and the tum-
tum of the moving picture show
piano.
Road Supervisor Watson is hay
ing gondola house built for the
swans for their winter habitation. 1t
will be partitioned off, and made dry
inside, while 1t lies in the water, 80
that the birds may eat their wheat
and barley. and yet drink. Eve,y
time a swan takes bite he takes
drink. The swan was never known
to drink to excess.

not think that drilling in this area
will prove ore of consequence, unless
confined to the vicinity of ,he jasper

that is, do not think that the ground
south from the Blowout outcrop be-

tance of the surface"
"The property of the Ely Central
certainly justifies development and

fcient funds satisfactorily adminis-
tered, to determine whether or not the
deposits are commercial. This ap-
plies as well to the jasperiod or gos-
san area of the Clipper section, as
to the porphyry area, at the south
east end of the group.
"In conclusion, the Ely Central
property, in my judgment, is one of
great potential value and well justi-
fies proving. believe that develop
ment will be rewarded by finding
commercial ore at the southeast end
of the ground in an area sufficiently
large to be attractive and profitable.
"The jasperoid or gossan area,
near the limestone, in the vicinity of
the Clippers and westward from
them. is also favorable. and will no
doubt prove of Importance when de-
yeloped to permanent water level. 1t
is not a question as to whether or not
there is ore in Ely Central. The ore
is there, and 1t remains simply mat
ter of proving its value. The prop
erty well justifies the necessary ex-
penditure to accomplish it,

Rich Old Camp of Treasure
Hill Gradually Working. Back
Into the limelight
sHOw|EGS OF THE SAN TOY
WORK WILL BE
STARTED IN THE SPRING ON
THE JACOBSON PROPERTY,
WHICH HAS LONG LAID IDLE.

The old district of Hamilton, where
in the early days Treasure Hill yield
ed fortunes to the prospectors and
miners, is again looking up and there
Is a mild excitement on, which in the
spring may be famed into another
boom. Hamilton has had a number
of visitors in the immediate past, and
all bring back the best of stories re-
garding showings and development.
During the week T. Sandderson,
president of the Harmony bank OF
Harmony, Minnesota, Austin Jacob
son of the same place, and Ed. Han
and A. B. Colwell, visited Hamilton.
Mr.. Jacobson is the owner of con-
siderable property, and was one of
the pioneers of the district, living
there up to four years ago. Mr..
Sanderson is married to his sister,
and be has other relatives living in
Harmony. 1t is his intention to
have patented all of the property
which has not already been patented |;
then to form stock company, and
divide the stock among his relatives.
Messrs Half and Colwell went out to
do the surveying for the patents. 1t
is expected that development work
will be begun by the new company in
the spring.
w. S. Larsh, who was assistant
superintendent at the Veteran when
it closed down, was also visitor to
the old camp. He has interests
there, the principal one being in the
San Toy mine, now under lease to the
Ely Hamilton Investment company.
He went with the party, and made an
inspection of the San Toy. Mr..
Larsh enjoys the regulations of being
one of the best mining engineers ever
in the district; and he satisfied him
self of conditions in the old camp,
and more especially in the San Toy
shaft. He was much pleased with
what he saw.
On his return, he stated that there
was no doubt that they had in the
San Toy the ore of Treasure Hill, and
that further development would
prove 1t. The vein, he said, is in
place, and the chances of finding good
bodies of ore are of the very best.
The quartz, he said, showed bromide
and chloride of silver, with brown
manganese, one of the best indications
for ore in the White Pine silver belt.
The quartz is showing larger and the
values are increasing in the drift from
the shaft to the north; and in his
opinion, continued development will
open up a. good deposits as were
found in Treasure Hill in the old
days. Mr.. Larsh has gone to Colo
rado, where he is to examine some
mining property.

crossing most satisfactorily according
to report. William Stewart, who
came In from the mines this week,
and left yesterday morning for an
other visit, says that 500 tons of ore
are on the dump; and that 1000
sacks are ready for shipment. Ar
for transporting the ore
to Warm Springs on the Neveada
Northern line have been completed
with Mark Peterson, and he was to
today on the hauling with
four horse teams. Development will
be continued through the winter
for which purpose an eight
horse power gasoline hoist is to be
ordered.
Jesse knight, the wealthy mining
man of Utah, has secured so per
cent of the stock in the Ely Amalga-
mated company, whose property is
located near McGill. Mr.. Knights
first step will be to patent the prop
erty, and will then proceed with its
on a large scale. The
company owns valuable lead-silyer
holdings, adjoining the property of
the Steptoe Smeating and Mining
company, and very good reports have
Leen returned on them.
