TALK GLOWINGLY OF
NEW CAMP OF WILLARD

Former Governor T. l.. eddie and
Zeb Ray returned last night from a
trip to Willard, the new mining
camp near Lovelock, and both re-
port that the camp showed a steady
and marked improvement in the last
week.
"Quite a number of leasers are
getting down to real work now"
said the former governor this morn
ing, "as many of the drawbacks in
cident to the starting of a new
camp have been overcome, and from
now on interesting developments can
be looked for. The ore bodies being
developed are showing improvement
in size and values and much interest
is being taken in the district by min
ing men. The geological conditions
in the camp are interesting, particu-
larly the porphyry intrusions in the
schists and shales close to the vein,
and the effect of these intrusions Oh
the ore deposition"
Zeb Ray said there was great &C
tivity in the town of Willard itself,
several real estate transactions Of
importance having taken place, while
from SO to 60 men are visiting the
camp every day in automobiles. Mr..
Ray gave interesting details of the
progress of the camp.-Gazette.

missed the appeal of G. d. Collins. a
San Francisco attorney, from the
refusal of the federal district court
of California to release him on ha-
beas corpus from the penitentiary
where he is serving a term OF IA
years for perjury in connection with
his marriage. He was originally ar

tradited to Canada on a charge OF
perjury for denying he had married

MORE GOOD ORE ON
THE WEAVER PROPERTY

While crossing the old Borland-
Belts lease on the Weaver property
in Rochester on his way home from
work, Joe Michel, a we'll known
miner and prospector, through curl
osity drove his pick into a. decom'
posed ledge which forms a part OF
the footwall that was left exposed
in the old workings and uncovered
a body of ore that runs $40 per ton.
This discovery is on the Weaver
No. 2 claim on the south slope or
Nenzel mountain. The vein which
lies only a couple Of feet from the
surface shows at the present time
better than four feet OF ore which
assays SAL about IS of which is gold.
Immediately after his discovery,
Michel communicated with officials
Of the company and secured p lease
on the ground and has been sack
ing Gre from this glory hole since
the first day he started to work.
which was on May 8. Michel has sold
three. fourths interest to Messrs.
Huntington and Cole, who will FUR
nish all the machinery, ETC., for the
working Of the lease.
Work on a large scale will be be-
gun Immediately. From the present

NEvAOA-PACKARO
TO INSTALL MILL

A contract for the erection of a
Packard Mines company's property
has Just been awarded to the Califor-
mia Extraction company of San
Francisco. A. e. Vandercock, pres
ident of the Extraction company, and
II. c. Lyons concluded the deal three
days ago, and will give up their
rooms at the Riverside this evening
and return to the bay for a few days
to arrange plans for the new mill.
\ mill is now being installed by
the Extraction company at Yuba,
Calf, and will be in operation in a
few weeks. The extraction process
of Vandercock is a new one. a pat
ent having been granted him only a
few weeks ago. 1t has been thor
oughly tested in a plant that has
been erected at Oakland and ore
from at least SO different mines in
the west has been treated for test
purposes. The difference between the
new method and the we'll known cy.
ani6e process is that the new n Sc
cures a complete extraction during
the crushing process.
The extracting is completed in one
cycle instead of a series. Only one
thickener is used and there is no
heating of the solution necessary.
Briefly, it is a system of amalgama-
ton and cyanidization combined.
Work on the erection of the mill
and the installation Of the plant will
begin as soon as the company COM
oietes the grading. The laying Of
pipes for the bringing of water has
already begun. Samples of Packard
ore treated at the plant of the COM
PAW in Oakland. in which there was
36.9 ounces of silver and 62 cents III
gold, gave a complete extraction OF
the sold and 96.75 per cent of the
silver. Another treatment. the as
say showing 20.S ounces of silver.
and Al cents in gold, gave a COM
pletc extraction of the gold and SO
per rem Of the silver.-Gazette.

DOLLY WARDEN DOING
MORE DEEP MINING

belly WARDEN, New, May Is.
The advance in copper is having a
marked effect in this district, par
ticularly so with property owners
having copper grounds. This week
the district was visited by F. B. Wi
borg of New York, of world wide
fame in printing ink production. Be-
fore his departure he closed a con-
tract with T. Boofer to sink a 900
foot shaft on the Atlas lode which
at q depth of 100 feet exhibits ex-
cellent copper sulphide ore. This
class Of ore has been continuous from
the surface.
w. G.. White of California has re.
turned with instructions from his
Ogden co-partner to continue work
with his power drill. The group of
seven locations owned by these par
ties exhibits a fine copper showing
of undoubted large deposits, as indi-
Gated by several years OF develop
ment work. In the face of the Ho-
sic tunnel at a point 1853 feet, where
a contact was reached, a fine show
ing of copper sulphide was o
tered. which continued to enlarge
frcm dov to day until last week when
Mr.. Hosie was called away on bust
ness.
Cahe and Austin are preparing a
carload of lead-silver ore from their
group. a part Of which has been re-
duced to concentrates and the bal
ance in bulk form being rich enough
to ship without reduction. At least
a carload of shipping ore is piled
uncn the Badger group dumps. This
property is owned by Capt. T. r. Ma
han and co-partner. The ore con-
sists of good grade copper, gold and
silver, but until additional develop
ment is made. the owners prefer to
hold the ore where it is an an exhibit

Tonopah Merger

The most important development
work in the Tonopah Merger during
the past week was the opening up
of a vein seven feet wide on what is
known as the intermediate level be-
tween the 900 and 1000 levels.
Over three feet of this ore averages
more than $25 per ton.
Ore of a shipping grade is being
stopped from above the 900-foot lev
ell. This ore body has been opened
up for distance of over 80 feet and
adds considerably to the large ton
mage already opened up above that
level.
Progress is still being made in
drifting on the 1890 level.
The ore bodies have been proven
from the 500 level down to the
1880 level, the lowest workings of
the mine.
Montana OnOpah
The Montana-Tonopah company
has i~naugurated the leasing system
at the local mine and several diff
ferent sets of leasers are now at
work. The lease of Davis, Quick and
Key has been the most successful
and they have already got out a ship
ment of 100 tons of ore which was
hoisted on Thursday. Just what the
ore will run has not been deter
mined yet, but these men are good
judges of ore and in all likelihood
it will be found to carry good values.
The Montana management has
also let a lease on the second-class
ore dump, and from this about 20
tons have been sorted and is ready
for shipment.-Tonopah Miner.
