is nearing its end, unless new ore bodies are encountered in the near future.
 It is the general impression at the mines that work at the Veterans will cease within a few months, and that the force will be removed to the Ruth, which was extensively developed by underground workings years ago, but which has been held ln reserve by the management of the Nevada Consolidat- ed.
 It was estimated many years ago that som mething like l3,0O0,000 tons of comm ercial ore had been developed in the Ruth properties by underground workings and by churn drilling. The property is already equipped with electric haulage to the Star Pointer shaft, which is also in perfect condi- tion for immediate use.
 When work at the Veteran IS aban- doned the buildings at the camp will be removed to a new townsite about a half mile south of the town of Ruth, where the miners employed at the Ruth will reside. The new town will be about mile distant from the Ruth mine, where it is expected that some thing like 800 men will be employed for many years.-Ely Record.

Nevada Consolidated.

From present indications the moun- tain of overburden separating Copper and Liberty pits of the Nevada Con- solidated property will entirely dis appear before the close of next year. The removal of this hill has been a gigantic undertaking, but there is little left of it at present.
 When the work has been completed and the two pits united, the manage ment will have clean sweep for it's shovels along body of sulphide ore nearly mile in length
 The depth of this body of ore has never been proven. at least so far as the public is aware, but churn drill hole was sunk in the bottom of Cop per pit to a depth of nearly 800 feet, going down in commercial ore the entire distance.
 It is currently reported that the work ceased in ore averaging better than per cent. This ore body will be
 
 the Nevada Consolidated in steady op- eration for many years.
 Since the commencement of opera tions at the CoWer pit, there has never been time when there was such vast tonnage of ore in sight.
 Without further stripping of over. burden, the steam shovels could be engaged on ore for practically an in, definite period, which certainly speaks well for the energy and ability of the local management. It will be many years before there will ever again be a shortage of ore at the great pit.
 The output of ore from the Veteran mine has been materially reduced dur ing the past few months, which has given rise to the opinion that the mine

Big Gold Strike
 Made Near Bouse.

w. w. Dunn and others who have recently arrived from Bou give par ticulars of the new gold strike made recently by Bouse x McMahon, which is attracting considerable excitement, quite an influx of miners and mining men being noticeable iu the new field.
 Samples of the ore are on exhibition at the O. K. meat market, which were sent to J. l. Roberts. They were of a red oxide, and the fine gold is freely disseminated, indicating values from 3OOS to 50OS per ton. The point where this find occurred is but one and one- half miles from Bouse, which town is again the center of many parties out fitting, as well is it the scene of the customary mingllng of those who fol low every excitement that may occur.
 The rich streak in the vein, un- covered to depth of only twenty-five feet, is said to run into the thousands to the ton, and from across the ledge for distance of about POO feet the values are conservatively placed at 6.50$ per ton.
 AS a result of this strike being well founded and not in any way over drawn, townsite is propused, which will bear the name of Goldzone. The real estate man has already entered the field and town lots galore are being laid off In anticipation of the country being invaded by the usual rushing in of hundreds of business men to get on the "ground floor.

Tennessee Power.

Announcement is made that current has been turned on at tn, second de- velopment of tho Tennessee company, on the Ocoee River in eastern Ten nessee. A contract has already been made by which the Aluminium con- pany of America will take the entire generating capacity of 10000 horse- power, which it will utilize in its big plant at Maryville, Tenn. This con- tract represents a minimum revenue of 225, ,000S year to the Power con- pany, and sales will probably run con- siderably higher.
 Plans are now under consideration for the construction, higher up on the Ocoee River, of storage reservoir which will make possible the addition of l0,0l0 more horsepower to the second development, and insure plenty of water for both plants throughout the entire year. The ultimate ca pacity which can be generated on this stream and at Great Falls, in Central Tennessee, amounts to l60,000 horse- power.
 The engineering difficulties which were encountered in the construction of the first plant at Parksville. with its 27,000 horsepower, where dam no feet high was thrown across the gorge between Sugar Loaf and Bean Mountains, were surpassed in the de- velopment just completed. Almost the entire flow of the river is carried in wooden Hume from the diversion dam to point five miles down stream, just above the power station, and then dropped 250 feet into the water wheels. In building this Hume along the rocky mountain sides which face the stream, it was necessary in many places to lower surveyors from the heights above. For this work the Tennessee Power company had to build a small city back in lhe mountains with the same stores, water works. hospitals, police and fire regulations which are found in other munci palties.
 In addition to the 47,OOO horsepower which the Tennessee Power company generates at its two developments, it has the use of 10000 horsepower in steam stations belonging to companies with which it holds contracts.
 The company IS already supplying, over transmission lines of APO miles, all the current used by the Chatta- nooga Railway & Light company, Knoxville Railway x Light company, Nashville Railway & Light company, Rome Railway x Light company, and Cleveland Electric Light company, to. gether with numerous other concerns constituting almost the entire cleo. trical market of eastern and central Tennessee. The population served by these companies is estimated at 330,- 900. In spite of an abundance of cheap and efficient coal, power is be- ing furnished by the company to a constantly growing number of manu- featuring and mining enterprises Boston Commercial.
