Elras "Game LaW.~

ss1ne first game law" for, the pTotec ,ion Of wild animals and birds was enacted ie 106S by William the Con- areror. This decree of the Norman king was called forest law, but it's principal purpose was the preserva' Ion of game. Forfeiture of property was made penalty for killing CT dis abling any kind of wild beast, while the slayer of stag. buck or boar. If convicted. had his eyes put cut These laws, of course, applied only to the masses, since the royaity and no sility were permitted to kill as much as they pleased. in fact. the prinob pal purpose of the pioneer game law was to provide sport for the few. The first parliamentary game law ln Eng land was passed tn 1496. Game lawn In America have become increasingly strict of late years, but theg were adopted tho late to save many speciea notably the buffalo. from almost com pleta extinction.

! NEW DEFENSE ARMY PLAN
OF IL. $.

Complete details of the plan for the reorganization of thes army which is expected to provide 600,o0V fighting men at the end of thrSe years, became known for the first time today. The plan has received the approval of the president.
 It centemplates an increase of the personnel of the regular army suf- ficient to insure a strength of 129,O00 men and 2O00 additional officers within the next two years One-half of the contemplated increase is pro- sided for in this years appropria- items.
 Upon this foundation, it. is propos- ed to rear "a citizeli's or'"contihqn- tai" army. V \ H#' " ri b'l..&l r

 The officers of the national guard are also taken into account for, ser- vice in the immediate organization Of the citizen army. These officers are not under control of the federal government, but it is stated contracts might be made with them or legisla- tion could be enacted by which state organizations could get no fsdsral assistance except with the under standing that the officers virtually become part of the federal army.

 There are now 1o cavalry regiments
 which are considered sufficient fer the country's defense. The war de partment, however, insists upon more infantry, more field artillery anc more coast artillery. The whole plar has been formulated on the rrlnclplt of an army of defense.

KEWANAS READY
TO sink W|NzE
TIMBERING HAS BEEN COMPIEr-
ED AND SHIPMENTS WILL
BEGIN SHORTLY

Stopping operations in the Reo-
ganized Kewanas property have been
delayed slightly by necessary tim
bering. but this has been completed
and the miners will begin at once
breaking ore for shipment from the
main ore-shoot exposed in the north
drift on the S40-foot level. At the
end of the east cross-cut from TIE
ore drift and near the hanging wall
of the quartz zone. a winze was
started recently and had progressed
for Is feet when it became ncces-
sary to install timbers and a plat.
form.
now proceeds with the object OF
reaching and exploring the shale
contact zone. which is believed to be
not far below the present floor of the
winze. The cross-cut from which
this winZe is being sunk was ad-
vanced about 40 feet from the ore
drift. before exposing the hanging
wall. and in it's progress it passed
through a number of seams of good
ore. varying in width from few
inches to two feet with wider
body of pay material showing near
the hanging wall.
The presence of these seams of ore
proves the existence here of a wide
zone of enrichment and supports the
belief that Orebodies of value will
be found at the shale contact, where
conditions are such as to make for
greater concentration of the met
ais and larger and more compact de-
pOsts of ore The cross cut first
driven to the ore, at a point 200 feet
north of the main winZe, passed
through vein matter for a consd-
cradle distance before exposing the
pay-shoot, but the foot-wall of the
vein or quartz zone has not been
reached at a point opposite that at
which the hanging wall has been ex
posed and therefore the exact width
of this zone has not been deter
mined, but it is already shown to lie
of great width.
With the beginning of production
there will be no difficulty in main
tanning regular shipments at any
rate desired. but for the time being
production will be matter of Sec
ondary consideration, as it is desir-.
er to press development work and TO
reach the contact zone as soon as
possible. 1t is estimated that the
| average value of the ore to be ship
ped in the near future will be in the
neighborhood of $40 per ton

SILVER PICK VEIN
SHOWS GOOD QUARTZ
DEVELOPMENT WORK ON TWO
DEEP LEVELS IN TWO BIG
VEINS

At a depth of 600 feet the new
east cross-cut from the Silver Pick
company's main shaft has penetrat-
ed the big east vein, in which ore OF
commercial grade was found on up
per levels, and drifts will be extend-
ed to thoroughly prospect the big
lode. Superintendent Walter Nor
ris has now reached a point in this
part of the work where he expecss
GOOD results within a short time and
he has found the conditions in the
big vein to be in every way encour-
aging.
Within a short time Mr.. Norris viii.

was driven to the vein from the
cross-cut on the 700-foot level, to
connect with the new workings on
the 600 level. In the west or Phe
lar vein, which is being explored by
drifts on the 50O-foot level, condi-
tions are also satisfactory and come
ore of good milling grade has been
found at a point nearly unoer the
PE elan lease workings, where seams
of ore of shipping grade were ex-
posed at a depth of 130 feet.

With three of the most widely
known properties of the district
starting to ship ore in substantial
volume and with good prospects for
others soon entering the list of pro
ducers, the mining situation in Gold
field is in every way satisfactory and
presages material increase in the
output and earnings of local COM
panies in the near future. Produc-
ing companies here have on a num-
ber of occasions of late found con
gestion of ore at the local sampler
of the Western Ore Purchasing com
pany. compelling them to regulate
their shipments in such a manner as
to avoid demurrage at the local rail-
road yards.
lhe production of the district,
Ihlcl mas been maintained during
Lac past lew months at something
over 100000 gross monthly. is like
ly to be augmented in considerable
uegree by shipments from the At
lanta, kewanas and Simmerone
properties, Wull6 tHc DldCh IoutlS
and one or two other properties may
be expected to add in no small vol
ume to this output. The Sandstone
Kendall and Merger Mines compan-
les are nearing points in their work
where the discovery of shipping ore
would cause no surprise.
GOldfield Consolidated
The usual production of more
than 1000 tons daily is being main
tanned regularly by the Goldfield
Consolidated Mines company, the
ore coming chiefly from the Red
Top-Laguna, Mohawk, Combination
and Clermont mines. While the
ore now being treated is of lower
grade than formerly, there is ap
parently no dimunition in the vol
ume of available ore that can be
treated profitably and the company
has not yet touched its vast re-
serves of low-grade and medium
grade ore that carries copper and is
not amendable to successful treat
ment by cyanidation.

ties that the company has an enor-

LEASE

The Florence Goldfield manage
ment has been devoting it's energies
to development work for the past
month, during the greater part of
which period Superintendent H. B..
Clapp has been absent on vacation,
and little ore has been shipped since
early in October. Drifts have been
continued on the vein opened some
time ago in the extreme northern
part of the property, near the Com
tination Fraction boundary, where
shipping ore was exposed some four
months ago and where some stopping
was done.
Development work of more than
passing interest is now in progress
on the 25O-foot level, where cross
cut has been driven from the main
north drift to connect with old work
ings of the famous Reilly lease, in
order to explore the territory sur
rounding the old lease slopes that
produced large quantities of bonan-
"a ore. Some prospecting has also
been carried on in the main Florence
vein, near the shaft.

PIONEER TO RUN
FULL CAPACITY
ORE RESERVES JUSTIFY SUB
STANTIAL INCREASE IN
MILL OPERATIONS

Operations of the Pioneer Consol-
idated Mines company, in the Pho
neer district, 55 miles south of Gold
field, are now upon substantial
basis, and Manager w. j. Tobin is
regularly sending ingOts of bullion
to the Denver mint. For some time
past the company's 10-stamp mill
has been operating 16 hours daily
and treating over so tons of ore
daily, and it is now planned to run
the mill full time, day and night,
and to increase the tonnage treated
to the full capacity of the plant,
which is believed to be, under favor
able circumstances, over 70 tons
daily.
Development work in this mine
has been greatly extended in scope
recently and is branching out on all
levels to open up and thoroughly
prospect the county surrounding the
famous Bonanza stope, from which
an extraction of nearly 100000 was
made, in shipping ore of uniformly
high grade. In extending drifts
and cross-cuts from this stope a
large tonnage of excellent milling
ore has been exposed, insuring the
profitable operation of the mill for a
long time to come.
