MANHAT TAN IS IN
VERY GOOD SHAPE
Leasing in Nevada Camp Being
Conducted on Very Sue
cesSful Scale.

Charles s. Mccarthy. recently resigned
as superintendent Of the War Eagle mil!
at Manhattan. Is spending a few days in
Tonopah before returning to the northern
camp 10 engage in certain mining cntcr-
priSes thai he has contemplated Tor some
time. IN speaking Of Manhattan MIR Nc
Carthy gives an interesting account OF
The general condition OF the camp.
The Dexter properties are showing a
steady improvement under the War Eagle
leases and about ihlrty-iiVc men are at
work. The Big -Four has about the same
number OF men at work as the Dexter.
The new strike on the Big Four is
about 700 feet northwest OF the Poall,
Steen and Chapman lease and parallels
the ledge in that lease. The lease belongs
TO Tarrish and Lindsay and at a depth
OF 80 feet the bottom OF the shaft is
in $40 ore, Fifty tons Of this grade OF
ore are on the dump.
The lease on the White Caps has mtled
about 400 tons OF $40 ore and sent out Il
shipment Of two carloads OF ore that will
average in the neighborhood of $50 per
ton.
On the Earl property the Bath brothers
lease is producing from FIVE TO six tons
of ore daily that will run about $50
This production is accomplished with only
five men at work. Aside from the well
leasers a work. some have ore and
others are looking for il.

men at work in his placers and is clean
There are about thirty to forty men op-
Grating plaCers in the Culch besides Mr..

EuREkA-PALISADE ROAD
WILL BE REYAMPED

The Ely Record is informed that in all
probability the Eureka -Palisade railroad
will be reconstructed as a broad gauge
line during the present year. and il is
also inimsted that the road will not stop
at Eureka, but will be continued on
through the state, but in what direction
is not known at the present time. The
reconstruction of this road as broad
gauge means d new lease OF life TO IIu-
reka, Wiudfall and Hamilton. which have
been inactive since the washing away
Of the old narrow gauge road a year and
a half ago.
On the strength OF the rebuilding OF
Lhe road work has already been resumed
at the Windfall. and preparations are
being made for active campaign at
the mines on Ruby Hill. Eureka. Tho
building of the road will also revive Ham
ilton, which for many years has been
one Of the largest shippers Of lead silver
ores in the entire state. The ores OF
Hamilton have always been hauled by
wagon to Eureka and shipped from there
10 the sinelters at Salt Lake City for
treatment. The business could be di-
vertcd TO Ely by the construction OF a
good wagon road from the Boston ELY
mines to the summit of Jakes valley.
which would shorten the distance and at
the same time afford much better grade
than by the present road. over which a
heavy load cannot now be hauled
II is certainly to be hoped that the
board of county commissioners can this
year see its way clear 10 build this cut :
off which has been talked OF for several
years.

STONE AGE OPERATORS

:, 4 most interesting glimpse into pre-
historic mining in the Stone Age has re-
OF the oural and Aramo copper. cobalt
mines in Spain, says the Mining World.
In these ancient Spanish mines. the
galleries and drifts do not open directly
onto the mountain side. Instead they
communicate with daylight by means ef
several vertical shafts or chimneys, a
few meters in height. The purpose OF
this arrangement was. il has been sug-
gested 20 effect a better conrol over
the slave miners. Perhaps. too. the pur-
pose was To prevent wild animals from
making their homes in the mine along
with the slaves.
Relics found both inside and outside
the mine comprise bones. and various
implements made of stone. bone, horn
cipal relics found on the interior were

stone hammers, picks made of horns of
animals no longer known in Spain; stone

found belong, for the most part. TO min

labor: the hand still holds the hammer,
and occasionally a skeleton is found uu-
der fall OF rock. Others met death in
covering or crouchine position.
A few of the men seem 10 have been

been OF extraordinary muscular develop
