EXPERIENCES GENERAL REVIVAL

was struck last fall. which created
much excitement in Tonopah. Since
that time many shipments Of ore
have been made averaging from 5000
to $400 above transportation and
treatment The original discovery
was made by Jenkins and Lampson
one OF whom sold his interest for
$4,000 cash, The high grade ore
attracted much attention from min
ing men, and at the present time
there are about fifty men IN the dis
trict working in the mines and pros
pecting. The first shipment OF the
season was made last week, which
is expected to average as well or
better than previous shipments. A
shaft has been sunk on the original
discovery to depth of So feet which
is bottomed in good ore. All min
ing men agree that the original
strike has now passed the stage Of
prospect and is bound to develop
into a producer of high grade ore,
and it is reasonable to expect that
several other producers win be
brought in during the present sum
mer.
At Gold Springs. two miles from
Willow Creek, some picture gold ore
was recently discovered by w. H.
I McMullen, a wen known prospector
of Currant Creek The property was
soon afterwards bonded by repre-
sentatives of George Wingfield. of
Goldfield, for 100000 No work was
done on the property and the bond
has now expired 1t is stated that
Wingfield was anxious to renew the
bond, with sufficient time in which to
demonstrate the extent and value Of
the discovery.

Governor Oddie spent a small fortune
IN the district several years ago, and
demonstrated large bodies of ore
which II would seem could now be
worked at profit. When the panic
came five and half years ago, the
governor was compelled to abandon
his enterprise, and eventually al.
