GOOD VALUES FROM
NATIONAL BUCKSK|N

The National Buckskin Mines COM
pany has great cause for jubilation
these days. Ever since the o~rganiza-
tfon of the company diligent work has
been prosecuted and with such favor
able results as to give assurance to
long time confidence that Flynn,
Martin, ct al, will make a rich mine,
situated as that large property is be-
tween the Bell bonanza and the Ma
tional mines, with its millions OF
production.
Manager Martin, who so faithfully
in this property and single-handed
for four years prosecuted a tunnel
in line with his confidence, recently
by increasing the working force, the
work has been pushed faster with the
result that two weeks ago they en-
tered a crushed zone of quartz which
returned values.
After this entry a gushing flow OF
water saluted the workers, impress
ing the practical side of the men
undU tneN were WltulH EcdCH " q
great change and approaching the
goal for which Flynn Martin, ct al.
have been striving these years. All
this enthused and encouraged the OPP
orators, but now comes the raphsody
that is sweet to the sense of these
struggling forces in making mines.
it is this: During the past week, in
driving ahead for the vein the work
ers have encountered consistent
stringers making for the main ore
body in that mountain which has
the Bell mine with it's SO and $40
per pound ore, and which in splendor
of wealth promises to Guido the ia
nous National mine. These string
ers, of two to four inches wide, assay
from $40 to $40 per ton in gold and
silver. The main values are gold.
All these good things are coming
for the benefit of the hard workers.
Likewise these unmistakable indica-
tions and proofs point to a rich mine
in which the production will not de-
pend upon high-grade lenses, but will
mean a volume of ore that will en-
gage the attention of mining men and
in a richly compensating sense bring
profit to the men who W the stock
of the company Silver State.

MIZPAH CONSOLIDATED
is TO RESUME WORK

j. T. Crow left this morning for
Mizpah where he is superintendent
for the Mizpah Consolidated and will
Immediately put on a force of men to
resume work on the company proper
ty. Mr.. Crow made a brief visit to
the coast and operations were sus-
pended while he vas away.
For several years work has been
done in a tunnel which is being
driven to crOss-cut several claims
owned by the company and to tap
the Nevada Northern ledge at a con
siderable depth from the surface. The
ledge is a large One and near the
middle carries a core of high grade
ore at the surface which was follow
ed down about rs feet in a shaft be-
fore the tunnel was started. If the
core maintains it's dip below the
shaft at about the same degree the
tunnel will have to be driven about
1850 feet to catch it. The face is
now in 1870 fee and in a mineraliz-
ed formation that is encouraging. 1t
will be advanced as rapidly as pos
sible until the Nevada Northern ore
is struck and in the future the
Cobre and other lodges farther
ahead will be tapped by it.
Work will also be resumed on the
Benny straight ledge to continue the
drift started to the north along this
ledge and which is now in eighteen
feet. This ledge carries a streak of
shipping ore that has good gold
values with the copper. The ore has
averaged about a loot wide and it is
expected that large shoots will be
found by following the ledge to the
nCrth.-ExpOsitor.

SALT LAKE HAS
STOCK SCANDAL

Milton ID. Joseph, a well known
stock and mining broker of Salt
Lake City for IA years, has been
missing from Salt Lake since Mon
day with $685. in currency, which
he secured through a sale of 1000
shares of Utah Copper company
stock, according to reports from Salt
Lake City.
The story told by Pinkertons is
that he operated in part through the
Continental National bank of Salt
Lake City, whose president, j.. E.
Cosgriff, they say, has covered the
value of the stock with his personal
check and the money has been sent
to the New York brokers who de-
livered the stock to the bank Oh
Joseph's order. Mrs. Joseph is said
to have assigned all her property to
Cosgriff, which is reported to cover
largely Cosgriff's loss, Pinkerton de-
tectives have been retained to seek
Joseph.
Joseph telegraphed Thompson,
Towle & Co., brokers of New York,
last week, to buy 1000 shares of the
stock for him. The stock was SEN
to the Continental National bank in
the shape of 10 negotiable certifi-
Gates, with a draft for $54,333.1O
attached. Joseph called for the
stock Monday forenoon and secured
permission to take it away without
covering the draft, by telling Cos
griff that he had a customer for the
stock who did not wish t be known
in the transaction.
AS Joseph had been a customer of
the bank for several years and had
always been regarded as trustwor-
thy, Cosgriff did not suspect decep-
ton. Joseph then took the stock to
a brokerage house and sold it for
$4,000, demanding currency and
again saying that he had a client
who desired to be unknown in the
transaction. The money was obtain
ed for him, mostly in notes of $40
denomination.
