on slip-ups by Miller, an error and a
misjudged fly by Mitten. Kouch made
the circuit and scored a runner ahead
OF him on an apparent single, Mitten
thinking the ball went beyond the
foul flag made no attempt to get il
and consequently lost the ball. Mil
ler's errors were also very costly,
allowing several runners to reach
first when they should have been easy
outs. Loats pitched a masterful game
and deserved to win as he famed 16
men and allowed but 9 hits, several
of which were scratchy and should
have been f1elded easily. He made
five out Of the first six batters facing
him Whit the air until the atmosphere
was purple around the plate. Myers
and Sullivan starred in the field. Sui
ltvan accepted his four chances with
out slipup and made several sensa-
tional catches. Myers did a marathon
on Routson's fly and made good. Land

Null starred on the firing line for
the visitors but after walking the first
two batters up and giving the next
three balls, retired in favor OF II.

team mates, held the locals at bay
except in the 5th, 9Th and 7th sessions

Wednesday afternoon between and
5 o'clock flash OF lightning and q
clap OF thunder came out Of a clear
sky and was followed by a terrific
downpour Of hail and rain. A bolt OF
lightning struck two large trees al
the home of DIR. J. A. Zepp, Willis
street extended, splitting one tree
from top to bottom and shattered It.
DR.. and Mrs. Zepp were sitting under
the tree at the time and were badly
stunned, the Doctor being consider
ably dazed for few moments. a
man who was working on the road
in front OF the house was also
stunned. a strange feature of the
storm is that no hail fell In the West
end Of town. Near Tannery the crops
were considerably damaged.
The storm area began at Ridgeville
and extended east over portions or
Carroll, Howard and Montgomery
counties in the direction of Long
Corner and Claggettsville. Near the
former place the hailstones were as
large as Walnuts. Corn was cut to
pieces and live stock in fields were
injured and many chickens killed.
hundreds of bushels of fruit were lost.
Trees were stripped OF foliage and
in places branches of trees were cut
OF as with knife and bark peeled
in quantities and carried away by the
wind. The house of Edward Murray,
on the road from Ridgeville to
Damascus, was unroofed, and many
trees were uprooted. The fall OF hail
In Frederick il said to be the greatest

over about 28,S0O acres Of growing

SMELTER At THOMPSON IS
GETTING MUCH CUSTOM ORE

We are advised that since opera
tons at the Mason Valley smeltcr be-
gan early in January, 1912, and up to
March 5. there had been shipped from
the plant matte containing l,S24OO0
pounds of copper. Since the first OF
this month an average of SIS tons
of ore per day has been treated with
the production running on one day to
approximately 500 tons This ton
mage is being handled i'll one of the
company's furnaces, the second fur
mace being held in reserve.
The Mason Valley smelter has been
making an excellent record in the
short period it has been operating, and
il is the opinion of several well-known
mining engineers who have visited
the property that the plant is the
most complete and up 10 date of any
in the United States.
The outlook for custom ores at
Mason Valley is good, and the indi-
cations are that this is going to be an
important feature of its business.
These ores are coming in almost daily
and in rapidly increasing amounts. At
present at the rate of more than 20

The Mason Valley report for the
wear 1911 has just been issued and
the following is resume of the most
important deta:
During the year large amount OF
development, equipment and con
struction work was carried on, both
at the mines and smelters, in placing
the property in readiness for produc-
ton. which began early in January,
1912. .
At the mine 2,26S feet OF under
ground development was done. bring
ing the total TO nearly three mics.
The main tunnel level was equipped
with electric haulage. a crushing plant
erected and an aerial tram line 625O
fee; in length with capacity OF 100
tons per hour installed. The lower
discharge terminal of this line is sit
uatcd near the town of Mason. Dur
ing the year diamond drill operations
were begun. This work resulted in
the cncountering of several heavy
mineralized zones carrying copper sui
phide ores. This work will be con
tinued. The underground workings
at the mine were placed in readiness
for production. The slopes. as now
opened, average approximately ~
feet in width and from 100 to 400 feet
in length.
Construction on the new Mason
Valley smeltcr was started in Novem
Der, 1910, the blast furnace depart
mcnt was completed by the close OF
the year, and one furnace blown in
January g. The smelter is located
l6H miles north OF Mason, to which
rail connections have been made with
the discharge terminal of the tram
way. The plant consists OF two blast
furnaces. having a capacity OF 500 tons
each Tor twenty four hours The blast
furnace building has been designed
and constructed for the installation oi
converters at some future time. The

tons of custom ore outside of the Ne
vada-Douglas, are being received at
the plant daily. One closely con
nected with the Mason Valley situa-
ton believes that, with the exception
OF small tonnage from the Mason
Valley mine for fluxing purposes, the
company may ultimately be able to
supply its entire plant of 1900 tons
daily capacity from these ores alone.
which would mean the conservation
OF the ores i'll the Mason Valley mine.
Reports coming in from copper
section located at distance of 400
miles from the Mason Valley smelter,
state that the district there is witness
ing considerable activity as result
of the starting of this plant and that
ten properties have already begun
production and that many others are
preparing to ship In addition to this
section, there are numerous other
copper districts adjacent to the Ma
son Valley smelter, to say nothing of
the large number of developed prop
critics located in the Yerington camp,
some of which have resumed work
and will probably make shipments to
the company's plant.

YERINCTON COPPER
TO SOON SHIP ORE

Work is being pushed on the Yer
ington Copper property. Drifting on
the ore at the 250-ioot level is pro-
crossing in good shape and the ore on
this level is phenomcnally rich-a
characteristic OF this mine. The vein
is fully five feet in width and of the
average high grade. with lenses OF this
rich ore making i'll the vein. The ore
in this property carries enough gold
and silver to pay all mining, transpor-
tation and smelling charges, besides
leaving profit on this value alone, as
il runs from IS to 90 per cent in cop
per II is easy to see what enormous
profit is in store for the stockholders.
Production has begun and shipments
will commence during the coming
month. Mr. A. \. Marsal is superin
iendcnt in charge and the condition OF
the mine speaks volumes for his min
ing ability. He has placed the paop-
crty in the same class as the Mason
Valley, Nevada Douglas and other
mines of the district. The property
is well equipped with hoist. compreS-
sor. air drills, etc. for continuous
operation.

Will Build New Creamery.

The Navada Milk and Produce
company, operating a creamery on the
Nichol ranch, has just sold 100 head
of milch cows and all of the ma.
chinery for Pasteurizing milk and
making butter, to Herman Luhrs'
who recently bought the Reymer'S
ranch. A new brick building will be
erected, the machinery moved into 1t
and complete creamery will be oper-
ated by Mr.. Luhrs. The milk business
will be carried on the same as usual
shipments to be made daily to Tono-
pah and Goldheld. Mr., Luhrs very
recently came from Carson Valley
and from the looks of things is an
up- to date ranchman. We predict all
kinds of success for him. Mr. George
w. Lucy, who has had charge OF the
above creamery. leaves soon after the
first for Bishop, Cal. After a short
stay there he and his estimable wife
will take a trip to Honolulu.

1911 and 1912 to the home OF Mrs.
George West for an afternoon OF
frolic. The work OF the committee
for 1911 is nearly over and that OF
1912 Just begun, so il seemed hitting
they should spend an afternoon to

A dish of greens proved to be a
large bowl filled with slips containing

off the answers in this game, winning
the prize, green hat.
Then a St Patrick's Day romance
was written by each guest, using Ia
miliar Irish terms. Mrs. William
Boyle easily proved herself most
competent in this line and received a
tiny green suitcase in which to pack
the little Irish heroine's belonging Tor
her trip to the Land of the Free.
Then the guests were presented
with tiny white aprons decorated with
shamrocks and messages telling each
guest what part of the luncheon she
was to prepare A rush to the pantry
ensued and soon dainty lunch was
ready. The guests then served them
selves. When all had gathered IN

OFFICIAL REPORT ON MASON
VALLEY MINE AND SmELTER

smelter is very complete in every de-
tail and is operated throughout by
electricity. In connection with the
smelter there is sintcring machine
which will be used in treating the ore
fines. concentrates and flue dust A
complete haulagc system has been in
furnace charges and Stag; also com
plete water system working under
gravity pressure. In connection with
this, installation precautions have
been made against fire by .equipping
the plant with electric pumps.
The balance sheet OF the company,
as OF December 81. 1871, shows total
current assets of $220,035, including
Sll7,088 cash on hand Current liza :
bilites amounted to $l47 .449, leaving
an excess OF current assets of $751;
$50.
In concluding the report General
Manager Jules La Barthe says that it
may be stated that the mining prop
crty has never looked better in its
history than at the present time. The
equipment is most modern and com
plete for economical operations. The
price of metals has caused activity in
all mining camps tributary to the
smcltcr, and there is every indication
OF an important custom smelling bust
ness being developed From the first
months operations the results have
proven the method of operation to be
entirely satisfactory for the econom
ical treatment of the ore. All condi-
tions warrant my belief that the prop
erty will yield most satisfactory
profits for years to come.
Since the above report was written
and up to March 5, the smelter has
produced matte containing over
$4,000 pounds. The custom ores
are coming in almost daily and this
business promises to increase stead
lily.
