SIX TONS OF $50 ORE
SHIPPED BY BULL RUN

Glen d. Cook and w. G. Holdforth
of Salt Lake City reached Elko last
night from the Bull Run mining
district, where they are the wners
of teh old Mckenzie property, now
known as the Richeliue mine. Be-
fore leaving the mine, where consid-
erahie gold-silver ore is blocked out,
they shipped six tons of ore which
will go SIS to the ton.
Samples they carried with them Of
high grade show gold sticking out
from all parts of the rock, and these
samples will go very much better
than the SIS expected from the re-
turns on the six-ton shipment.
The property is a promising one,
and when the winters SHOWS begin
to fade away next spring, the two
gentlemen will return here and work
the Richelieu for all it is worth.
They came to Elko county last spring
from Salt Lake. and are now on
their way home to remain during
the cold months.-Elko Free Press.

REVIVAL IN MINING
MAY BE LOOKED FOR

The mining and mining stock out
look for Nevada should be very good
in the next two or three weeks and it
would be not at all surprising if
there were revival in mining inter
est during the remaining months of
the winter and well through the
spring.
For substantial developments the
work on the Jumbo Extension in
Goldfield has opened up a new vista
for a camp that was rapidly begin
ming to feel almost at the end of the
great deposit. Now there is a new
theory that will drive away the fear
of that trick of a baneful Midas who
would transmute gold into copper
rather than copper into gold. AS
for the copper camps there is still a
dark outside lining IN the cloud. but
if shipping difficulties are met even
that may pass. This country must
begin to manufacture copper into
merchandise forms and the longer
the war the more chance there will
be of a recovery of the copper situ-
alton.
The pest indication of a revival of
interest in mining stocks comes from
the general situation. Investors
500 will be able to get their hands
on capital. The federal reserve sys-
TEN will Don be in working order;
international credits will be adjusted
and there must be some outlet for
the investing desire. Industrials and
railroad stocks are hardly in shape
to tempt the investor or the specu-
lator and mining will have a better
attraction than any other form. -

GOLDF|ELD SPIRIT
IN TOAOGOLD CAMP

There is much about the new
camp of Tonogold, -four miles to the
north of Tonopan, to remind one of
Goldfield in it's early days says the
Tonopah Miner. 1t is not that the
physical aspect of the two places
is particularly alike, nor is there
very high grade ore in quantities
that soon made the latter camp ia
nous, but there is considerable of
the Goldfield spirit in those work
ings-and that goes al Ding way
when there is anything to go on.
While there is no very high grade
ore found in quantity an Tonogold,
as there was at Goldfield, there is
more or less gold found at many
different points over quite a stretch
of territory, and 1t is sufficiently
rich, and in sufficiently large bod
iesfi to warrant all of the develop
nent that is going on-and much
ore.
There are a number of very good
showings and there is every reason
to believe that with depth several
'ay mines will be opened up. The
Campbell and Kelly lease has al
ready shipped about $40 sacks of
ore to their little mill near town,
lie smaller shipments have been
made from other leases. Still 9TH
err leases have more or less ore
sacked on the dump, awaiting the
time when they have enough to
make a shipment.
What is perhaps the best and
most important strike that has
been made thus far at Tonogold was
made the past week on the lease
McNally and Mullins, near the
extreme southeastern section of the
camp on Wyneken and Shipway's
ground. This lease has a shaft
down 80 feet on what they call the
big ledge" which follows the foot
wall and shows five feet of vein
matter, with no 'hanging-wall in
sight. From this they are getting
some very fine looking quartz, and
a panning which Charley Mullins
made Sunday would indicate that
the values go as high as SOS to O75
+, the ton.
Last week McNally and Mullins
opened up another big parallel
ledge on their property, and in this
there is a streak a foot wide from
which excellent paintings are Sc
cured. The ore has been opened
Up in three or four different places
for Il distance of about 400 feet and
in every place the paintings indicate
encouraging values. 1t is the in
,1tion of McNally and Mullins to
sink the shaft at least to the So
foot point, when they will drive to
the point where they believe the
two lodges make a junction. At
this Joint they figure there should
be IL good body of IT

ROCHESTER MINES
TO DRIVE TUNNEL
WILL EXPLORE GROUND BE-
MEATH PRESENT ORE
BODIES

To cut the properties of the Ro-
Chester Mines company at a depth G.
1000 feet for the purpose of deter
mining whether the ores go to
depth, a tunnel site has been ecure
on the original Rochester ground
from Pitts & Mcintosh. According
to A. A. Codd, the Big Four lease is
sending out approximately one car
load OF ore per day, and he also re-
ports a new strike at the bottom of
the shaft and on the Codd site line
which will afford 200 feet of stopping
ground.
Wines will be sunk to demonstrate
to what depth the ore goes and act
i've stopping will be started. The
greatest depth that has been attain
ed on the Codd lease is 400 feet.
h management of the Rochester
Mines company plans to drive the
unnel at a point that will bring it
under the ore bodies known to en-
list in the upper workings. Raises
Will then be driven to connect with
these workings and drifts will also
be started for the purpose of thor
oughly exploring the new territory.
The tunnel will also afford the man.
agement a cheaper means of hand
ling the ore which will be stopped
and trammed from the tunnel.
Mr.. Codd has made the necessary
arrangements to complete the rail
road track to the site Of the new
mill, the construction Of which is
being rushed ahead as rapidly as
possible. The plant is under roof,
and equipment is beginning to ar
rive. Work on the transmission line
is also being pushed ahead rapidly.
in order to have the power in when
the mill is completed.
At a meeting of the board of d.
rectors recently p. j. O'Brien of
San Francisco and L. A. Friedman
were elected to fill the vacancies o.
Joseph F. Nenzel and his son, both
of whom resigned recently. 1t Will
be recalled that a block of Mr.. Mem
zel's stock was sold recently at II
sheriff's sale to satisfy a judgment.

:5O-TON MILL Is BEING
BUILT AT GOLD CIRCLE

According to advices from Gold
Circle, a 50-ton mill is being built
for the Eastern Star Mining COM
pany. The crushing part of the first
mill will consist of a seven by ten
Blake ore crusher, five 1,25O-
pound stamps and one five by eigh'
teen tube mill for fine grinding. The
continuous decantation system will
be employed and zinc dust used in
stead of zinc shavings for precipita-
ton. Grading and foundation work
will commence as soon as the plans
are advanced far enough, which will
be within ten days, and at the same
time lumber for the mill building
will be hauled from the Western
Pacific railroad at Rerhouse. The
a,hinery house requires from thirty
to forty days to make delivery from
the factories in the east.-Humboldt

ACCIDENT At YELLOW PINE

The Yellow Pine mine at Good
springs has been obliged to close
down by an accident on the narrow
gauge railroad which runs from
Jean to the mine. The Shay geared
engine, which is employed because of
the heavy grades on the road, made
the trip from G~oodsprings to Jean
and back Monday morning without
any trouble and was working fine.
The train then went to the mine
four and a half miles above Good
springs and started to bring down a
heavily loaded ore train. In some
the crew lost control of the
train on a steep grade and 1t ran
away, jumping the track while go
ing at high speed. Fortunately no
body was hurt, but the engine was
so badly smashed that it will prob
ably be necessary for the mine to
close down until another engine can
be secured from the east.-Las We
gas Age.

The development work at Miz-

been confined to the drift which is
being driven from the 55-foot point

This drift is going east and is
