CODD LEASE SHIPS
FIFTY TONS A DAY
ROCHESTER, AS DEPTH Is
ATTAINED.

A. A. Codd, president and general
manager of the Nevada Short Line
railroad, arrived in salt Lake yester-
day afternoon for a stay of a few
days on business.
This road is the one running from
the Southern Pacific at Oreana OIL
Nenzel five miles toward Rochester
across a stretch of sand so loose and
deep that it is almost an impossibility
to haul a loaded wagon across it.
The road is now being extended
eight miles further, which will take
it into Rochester anc cut out the
wagon haul for ore.
Rochester lies at an elevation of
1900 feet above sea level and the
point at which this road leaves the
Southern Pacific is about $500, max
ing a climb of 1900 feet in the thir-
teen miles, most of which is in the
last half of it. The grade in going
up Rochester canyo IS from 4 TO d
per cent, and even more, and in this
| part a Shay engine Will be used. The
road is doing a heavy business now
and this will be materially increased
when the extension rs completed.
Mr.. Codd is the proprietor OF the
famous Codd lease, which is No. 2
chester Mines company's ground. He
took this lease December Z, 1y1s,
for two years. In 1913 this lease
shipped 10000 tons of ore, the gross
value of which exceeded 100000. 1t
is now working fOrty-five men and
shipping fifty tons a day, some OF
| which m from the 500 level, the
deepest working in the camp. The
ore in this level is the best. Mr..
Codd says. yet encountered in the
lease. The ore that is being shipped
runs about 1925, the values being
chiefly in silver. A popularity noted,
however, is that the gold values In
crease as depth is gained. Near the
surface there was ABOUT 81 gold to
the ton, but at 500 feet this has in
creased to 81 or So.
In addition to the ore being
shipped, about half that taken out is
being put on the dump, where about
$4,000 tons of it has now accumu
lated, awaiting the construction of
a big mill, plans for which are now
| under way. Leases Nos. 3 and 4 on
the Crown Point claim are also doing
well and are working on the same
continuous body of ore as the Codd
lease. The mill product from this
ore body is an excellent all-slimes
ore, yielding beautifully to fine
grinding and cyaniding.
Rochester is active and there is
now being shipped out over the Ne
vada Short Line railroad 125 tons of
ore a day, so of which comes from
| the Codd lease, so from the Big Four
and 25 from others.
A matter of Importance to Roch-
ester is the new electric power line,
f3r the putting in of which a com
rany is being organized. They pro-
pose to generate the current at the
LahOntan dam of the government
Truckee-Carson irrigation project.
Mr.. Codd resides at Reno and is
one of the regents of the Nevada
state university. He has great faith
in Rochester as a mining camp and
predicts for it an active productive
life of at least ten years.-Salt Lake

With every indication ina the Jim
Butler mine will develop into one of
the big properties of the camp, the
Wandering Boy shaft will now be
equipped with a new hosting plant
capable of operating the mine to
great depth.
The hoist that has been purchased
by the company is the latest pattern
double-drum with herringbOne gear
of the Norberg manufacture, and will
be capable, when operated by a 49,
h. p. electric motor, of raising to the
surface a cage and 3-ton skip at the
rate of $50 feet a minute, and will
sink to a deptn of 1000 feet, while
it's hosting speed can be increased

chase of this hoist calls for its ship
ment from the factory on the 10th of
May, and it is, therefore, believed
that it will be installed early in June.
A new engine house will be con-
structed at the rear of the present
building and a new head-f frame will
also be installed, and all of this work
will be performed without interfer-
ing with the present operations of

show great improvement.

ATHLETES EXPLAIN
MORAL" CAMPAIGN
u. of NJ. Men Say Dissipation,
Betting and Profanity Are
Chief Evils Attacked

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Dec. S.-The
80 University OF Michigan athletes
who are back of the campaign to clean
up some OF the Objectionable features
connected with university athletics
here are anxious that the public be
set right on the real purpose OF the
movement
Ii is planned TO wage a war against
student betting on games. against thv
dissipation that frequently follows
athletic contests, and the use of pro-
family by athletes on the field and in
the club houses. Included in the res
olutions drawn up at the meeting at
which the movement was started, was
an attack on the indiscriminate hand
ing out OF tobacco and cigarettes at
smokers. There was, however, no at
tack upon smoking at smokers by
those who desired 10 court my lady
nicotine"
The interested athletes believe that
the too-customary ''rough-neckism"
that has been in evidence on the &C.
casion OF big athletic contests has led
many people, who visit the campus
only at such times. 10 believe that
such procedure is a regular part Of
university life here. The whole ques-
ton Is being put up to campus senti.
ment, rather than considered mat
ter for faculty edicts.

Never Again, Swore
Dick In theLongA Ago

Dick Rudolph, whom fans will re-
call as a member OF the Boston
Braves, learned to respect the slug
ging PROV ess of Eddie Collins many
years ago. While pitching for Ford
ham college, Rudolph favorably i'm.
pressed an International league scout,
and was soon afterward invited to
join the Rutland team, OF the Yer
mont league for a tryout. He was
just a kid then, and took the mound
for the first time as a professional in
state that bordered on nervous col.
lapse.
The first batter to face him In the
second inning was person called
Sullivan. Dick tried to slip over a
strike. and Sullivan clouted the OF.
fering to the fence for three bases.
Rudolph was panic-stricken, but got
n smile from his bench and soon raj
lied. He retired the next three men
in order, and has been something OF
classy twirler ever since.
Years later Rudolph learned that
the Sullivan who slaughtered that
straight ball was none other than Ed
die Collins. then Columbia student
playing under an alias. His next
chance at the Athletic second sacker
was in the world series. and he had
no groove balls to offer on that coca
sion.

Youngsters of Class Will Step

Bender and Plank

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. Now
that all doubt regarding the passing
OF Chief Bender and Eddie Plank
from the American league, is re-
moved, fandom is poking an inquisi-
tive nose into what is left OF Connie
Mack's pitching stan. Such OF those
fans who live outside OF the walls OF
the Quaker city are not finding a
great deal of JOY To reward their in
quisitiveness.
Mr. McGillicuddy has a mighty
promising stable OF twirlers, lined up
for 1915, and some OF them are very
likely TO acceptably fill the shoes OF
the hurdling hurting stars. Joe Bush
Bullet Joe-and Bob Shawkey are
moundsmen OF speed, curves and YER

been accepted as lads having the
goods.

him for 1915. RUDE Bressler the pro
tege of Plank, Is one OF the most

KILBANE'S SHOWING

AKRON, o., Dec. s.--lf Johnny Kill
bane expects 10 add the lightweight
title 10 his present featherweight
championship. he will have 10 show
more than he did here last night in
his l2-round scrap with Joe Mandot.
The fight was nice draw, but the
New Orleans boy did nearly all Of
the leading, and his showing all the
way was more satisfactory than Kill
bane's. Up 10 the tenth round. the
scrap was mostly science and not
much punching. Then Joe. stung by
his failure 10 make the feather champ
lead, bloodied Johnny's nose. That
seemed TO start something, for the
last two rounds were more like a
battle. Mandot showed a lot OF things
that augur well for his chances with
Welsh In their long distance fight.
Walsh's protege blocked more clev-
erly than ever before, and surprised
the fans with the way in which he
made Kilbane miss time and again.
His feinting was splendid.
