OPTION GIVEN ON OLD
DESERT QUEEN MINE

C. w. Kinney spent a few days the
past week in the vicinity of White
Plains on business, and called on
Walter Smith, owner of the Old Des
ert Queen mine in northern Churchill
county. Walter Smith came to this
county in 1865 and for 80 years has
been engaged in mining and pros
pecting in this county. He is now ~
years of age and still hopes to realize
handsomely on his mining interests.
few months ago he gave an OPP
tion to eastern capitalists on the
Old Desert Queen and they have been
sinking the main shaft deeper. At
$50 feet they report having picked
up the ore again and are more than
pleased with the prospects. 1t is re
ported that they have several hun.
dred tons of ore on the dumps and
most of it shipping ore. They are
in great hopes of picking up the same
ledge that produced so handsomely in
the early DAYS. At that time the ore
run from $4,000 to $500 per ton.
1t is asserted that there are thous-
ands of tons Of ore on tn edumps of
the Old Desert Queen that will run
from $S to $12 per ton. It is uner
stood the option runs for two years
from date of execution, and if the
eastern men exercise it there will be
lively times once more in the north
eastern corner of Churehill.-Eagle.

MEN IN SESSION

f. l.. Lomax, assistant passenger
traffic manager of the Western Pa
cifc, passed through Winnemucca YES
terday afternoon, on No. 4, en- route
to Salt Lake City, to attend meeting
of the traffic men of the Gould lines,
which is being held today. There are
209 traffic men present at the con
vention, the party representing the
passenger and freight departments of
the three roads comprising the Gould
holdings, and during the stay in Salt
Lake plans will be laid for a traffic
campaign to be waged in all sections
of the United States. One of the
matters to be discussed, which is con-
sidered by railroad men to be vital to
the overland transportation lines, is
the opening of the Panama canal In
addition to this epoch in the history
of transportation in the United
States the agents will be thoroughly
familiarized with the west so that
they may talk intelligently of it in
their dealings with prospective pas
sepgers and shippers in the east. The
Panama Pacific exposition and the
methods of routing passengers to and
from the exposition on the coast will
also come in for its share of atten-
tion.
The greater part of the agents of
the lines east of Denver have never
crossed the Rocky mountains and do
not know what is on this side of the
continental divide excepting those
things which they have read of in the
railroad folders. It is for the pur-
pose of educating the tenderfeet"
railroad man that the meeting is be-
ing held.
The entire party will leave Salt
Lake for San Francisco Wednesday
afternoon, by special train, and will
pass through Winnemucca during
Wednesday night.
