SEIBERT TAKES BOND AND
LEASE ON PETERSON FIND

Fred J. Seibert, the well known
mining engineer, was in Nina for a
few days the first of the week. While
here he closed a deal for a lease
and bond on the group of claims OF
]. P. Nelson, at Stewart Springs in
the old Bell mining district, Is
miles northeast of here. While it is
known that the consideration is to
be a large one, the figures are not
given out for publication. This is
the strike that was made a short
while back which created quite an
excitement here at the time. The
negotiations for the property were
conducted by Mr.. Seibert for a group
of San Francisco capitalists. A force
of men have been put to work with
a view of developing and proving the
permanency of the ore bodies. The
lodges outcrop for a width of over
40 feet, pan and assay well in gold
values, and the surface showings give
every indication of developing into
a big mine.
Mr.. Seibert did not care, at this
time to make a detailed statement,
and merely said hat the property
had been taken over and hal con-
siderable work would be done with
a view of proving it's worth.-West-
ern Nevada Miner.

He also states that the
foundation for the Elko Prince mill
of IS tons capacity is being placed
and that the positive announcement
is made that the Eastern Star peo-
pie will during the next few months
erect a mill to handle their large
blockage and dumpage of mill ore.
THE mining shOwings in the dis
~trict,' says Mr.. Liddell "are of e%-
cellent presentation. The recent
striking developments for rich ore
and strong showings are on the June
Bell and Lucky Boy claims. These
two recent strikes show much ore
in which free gold can be seen and
in tonnage show capability OF max

MRS.. JOHNSON IS
FREED BY JURY

eide Is RENDERED AFTER
TWENTY MINUTES

The coroner's jury in the case of
Albert A. Bochatay, who was shot
and killed near the old brewery
south of camp shortly after z O'Clock
Wednesday evening by Mrs. G. M.
johnson, after celebrating twenty
minutes, returned a verdict that the
deceased came to his death as the
result of justifiable homicide.
The taking of evidence began
shortly after 20 o'clock this morn
ing with the testimony of Drs. Nc
Carthy and Turner. The jury re-
paired to the undertaking parlors
after a short session, made an in
spection of the mans wounds and
then went over the scene of the
tragedy, where the events leading up
to the shooting were described by
Mrs. Johnson. Her testimony was
c~orroberated by Bert White, an I'M
ploye of the water company, who
witnessed the tragedy. According to
evidence placed before the jury.
Bochatay called her vile names and
stepped toward her to wrest the gun
from her arms. She fired and he
fell MORALLY wounded.
White stated that he heard Bocha-
tay call Mrs. Johnson vile names
and saw him rush toward her swing
ing his arms. He heard the report
and saw Bochatay fall. Mrs. E. G.
Martin, who resides at the Bochatay
residence, stated that she witnessed
the actual killing from her window
and hat Bochatay did not move to-
ward Mrs. johnson. but, as it looked
to her, started to turn around as If
coming back. AS he turned, she
stated, Mrs. Johnson lifted the gun
and fired. A great deal of contra
dictory evidence vas offered. Mike
Adams, a member of a band of
gypsies encamped e the e of
the tragedy, was called to the stand
and told of talking to Bochatay a
few minutes before the shooting.
The killing was witnessed by the
little daughter of Mrs. Esther Vail,

YUBA LEASING COMPANY
is PUSHING IT'S WORK

The machinery ordered by the
Yuba Leasing e Development com
pany for No. 3shaft has begun to
arrive and the Culverwell teams
have been busy hauling it up to the
company's mine workings.
The cement foundations for the
100 h. p. gasoline engine, also for
the compressor, have been completed
and the work of installing these
plants is now in progress.
The repair work in the shaft will
be finished in a few days and by the
time the engine and compressor are
in place everything will be in order
for the commencement of a most
active campaign of production.
The mill plans arrived yesterday
and now that they are on hand, next
in order will be the commencement
of work upon the excavations for
the plant, which is to be built near
the old smelter at the depot.-Pioche

BAD LOOKING BLAZE is
CHECKED BY GOOD WORK

Fire believed to have been start
ed in some ann from the kitchen
range broke out in the home OF Ed
Carr, SIS North Bellevue, about 4:3O
O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and for
a time threatened the adjoining
houses. The members of the family
were seated in the front room OF
their dwelling and it was not until
the flames had made good Roadway
that they became aware that the
house was on fire. An alarm was
sent in and the fire department ar
rived on the scene in record time.
Aided by an extra strong water
pressure the firemen managed to
check the flames in the kitchen and
prevent further spreading. The as
pect of a general conflagration was
so great that practically all the peo-
pie in the block moved the furniture
from their houses. The property
damage amounted to about $3.50.

PLATINUM NINE AFTER
GOLD MEDAL OF HONOR

Feeling that the award of only a
silver medal to the exhibit of the
Boss platinum mine was not suff-
cient, Assemblyman ]. E. Babcoc;1
has appealed to the superior jury OF
the Panama-Pacific exposition, says
the Clark County Review. He sets
forth that the Boss mine exhibit is
the only platinum mine exhibit at the
exposition, and that it is SO COM
plete that it is deserving of a COLA
medal of honor. The history of the
find of platinum-bearing ore in Clark
county is fully outlined in the APP
peal. and the work of developing the
mine as a platinum property is de-
clared to be we'll worth the gold
medal of honor sought, it is de
clared.

TEST is MADE OF
TEACHING PLANT

Earl Christensen spent last Sun
day at the Ruby Hill mine to wit.
ness a test cleanup of the teaching
plant recently put in operation at
that mine. The partial cleanup was
simply to determine how the process
vas working out and Christensen
states the Owner are more than
gratified with the results. The cop
per is deposited on scrap iron, the
latter being dissolved. He was pre-
sented with a copper horseshoe
which shows the deposit in Its ma
tive state. 1t is somewhat purer
than copper matte as it m from
n smelter and at the present time,
copper as is being produced at the
Ruby Hill is worth better than 20
cents a pound.
The company has expended
large sun of money installing a
plant for treatment of ores from tue
Ruby Hill and the people hereabouts
are pleased at the showing now be-
ing made.-Record Courier.

MILL FOR WILLARD
BEING CONSIDERED
D.. T.. LANE PILOTS BRITISH
CAPITALISTS OVER NEW
CAMP OF STATE

An upto date stamp mill to han
die the ore of Willard, the mill to
be erected at LovelOck, is more thar
a possibility according to d. e. Lane,
well known mining man who just
returned to Reno after plotting a
number of mining men representing
British capitalists to the new camp.
The men taken to Willard by Lane
were Major T. J. Whelan, Mr.. Nc
lehman and another, a mining en-
gineer from the coast.
"These men made a very careful
examination of the camp of Willard
and of the country surrounding"
Lane said, "and they were more than
pleased with the outlook. McLennan
told me that they had had no chance
to make any close figures as to
the ore in sight, but that there was
sufficient ore there to warrant the
erection of a mill. 1t is proposed
if the mill is constructed, to build
it close to Lovelock on the Humboldt
river and experts r now being con-
suited to devise a plan whereby the
tailings can by a forced draft OF
some other method, be kept out OF
the stream"
Lane was asked to pilot the men
over the camp by Thos. Robinson.
president of the San Francisco stock
exchange. "'The prospects look
good for Willard If this goes through
and there is every indication that
it will go through" concluded Lane.

BAD CHECKS PUT
ROBERTS IN JAIL
ALIASES Is BROUGHT

A man giving his name as l.. M.
Roberts, but who admits he has
travelled under at least five differ

office believes, is wanted in several
towns of the state, is in the county
Jail facing a charge of passing ficti-
tious checks. Roberts was appre-
hended at Beatty. to which town he
had gone in his effort to make a get
away.
The complaint under which Rob-
erts is held was sworn out by Joe
Jonasen, the local jeweler, who &C
cuses Roberts of giving him bad
checks ~aggregating $50. Word has
been received from Tonopah that
he is wanted in that camp on a SINH
lar charge, having passed a check at
the Cobweb bar for $50.
1t is also understood that he in
PRODUCED himself to Mrs. Wood at
Cuprite as a representative of Oak
land capitalists and that he was anX
ious to secure an interest in her
mining interests in Hornsilver and
other districts. In putting through
the deal it is said he wrote checks
aggregating $1,000 on an Oakland
bank. Mrs. Wood finally became
suspicious of Roberts after his de-
parture and brought the checks to
Goldfield for Investigation.
When arrested Roberts is said to
have pretended he was insane, but

JEWELRY ROCK FROM
WILLOW CREEK NINE

Charles Osterlund arrived in Ely
Wednesday evening from the mines
of the Willow Creek Gold Mining
company, bringing from a recent
strike which are absolutely plaster
ed over with free gold. Some of
the specimens are of the jewelry
class and would run many thousands
of dollars to the ton. The strike
was made in new workings about so
feet below the old tunnel. He also
had specimens from a new strike
just made on the same vein but 500
feet from the old workings which
also shows much fire. god. A crosscut
is now being run from the old turner
to cut the lead at a depth of $50
feet from the surface, which lacks
but a few feet of reaching the OBJ
jective point. If the ore at that
depth carries the same phenomenal
values that have been S 70 pronounced
in surface workings, the company
will have a bonanza second to none
in the state. The company has
been steadily developing it's prop
erty for the past two years, during
which time some of the richest ore
ever discovered in Nevada has been
taken out and shipped. The finding
of ore of practically the same grade
500 feet from the original discovery
would seem to prove that the vein
carries values over a considerable
distance along the strike.-Ely Rec
