the best values today are on the west

to follow the trend of the vein. The
west crosscut is still in the vein.
and it will be driven to the foOtwall

picking up further values to the

Superintendent Sharon stated that

above, to the grade exposed at the
sill floor. If the ore extends as far
to the bouth as it has already been
opened to the north, and there is
reason to believe that it does. there
should be a stopping length of nearly
40 feet, and a width of approximate

TOMOPAH WINS FAST
GAME FROM LOCALS
LOCALS COME FROM BEHIND
AND EVEN UP SCORE IN
FAST GAME

Tonopah reversed the tables in the
second game of the season Saturday
evening at the Airdome in the silver
camp, when the Mizpah Hill team
took the local basket shooters into
camp with a 20 to 26 score. The
difference in the score just about
represents the difference in the u
spective merits of the two teams as
they showed upon the floor. The
game was fast and was remarkably
free from fouls and other rough
house tactics and was the closest
game that a local team has put up
on a Tonopah floor in the past three
years.
The Airdome is the best floor
space that Tonopah has ever been
able to obtain for the popular in
door game and but for the out-of-
bound ruling, the floor would almost
equal the best one in the state. A
dance was given in the Airdome ait
er the game and was enjoyed by all
who attended. The sportsmanship
of the Tonopah team was a factor
which was f%avorably noticed by the
local squad, as the usual rough play
ing was almost entirely lacking and
only four fouls were called during
the game, and two of them were
made by the Goldfield team.
The Goldfield squad completely
outplayed their opponents in the last
quarter and the teamwork of the To-
calls was a complete surprise to the
spectators and the TOnopah team.
Fast, snappy passes featured the
closing few moments of play and the
passes of the locals we're beyond the
ken of the TOnopah team. The rec
ord in the first half of the game was
completely in favor of the silver
camps favorites but the Goldfie!d
team, when they did get in action,
displayed a brand of basketball that
was a revelation to the spectators.
The score stood at the end OF the
first half at Is to 10 in favor of tho
Tonopah team but after a few min
utes play in the second half the To-
cal team forged to the front and
made basket after basket on clever
passing plays which their opponents
we're unable to break up. Fitzger-
aid outjumped his opponent Butler
at the center position nearly every
time and the long GOldfield captain
played a consistent game through
out. The local guards. Johnny and
Dean Morrison, were on hand just
when the Tonopah team did not wish.
to see them. Truman was good IN
the position of running forward INC
he broke up several plays that
would have meant additional bas-
kets. Mccall was high scorer for
the local team. Butler and Oman
of the Mizpah Hill team starred Cor
the Tonopah quintet and divided
basket hcnors between them.
The final score was 29 to 26 in ia
vor Of the Tonopah squad and the
lineup of the local team with the
number of baskets accredited to
each is as follows: Fitzgerald, 2;
Truman, 3: Dean Morrison, l; NC

DIAMOND VALLEY WE'LL
PROMISES STRONG FLOW

The test we'll that is being plt
down in Diamond valley has reach
ed a depth of ~ feet and there is
"a feet in the we'll, the water coming
to within Is feet of the surface. The
first flow was struck at a depth of
2Oh feet. but was not very strong.
At So feet another flow was en-
%countered that was strong and raised
to within Is feet of the surface.
where it has since remained although
the well has ben continued on down
to ~ feet. The casing has only
ben put down to the depth of IS
feet, the formation from that point
being in clay and for the most part
is heavy material that proved to he
exceedingly hard going for the au-
CUR.
On Thursday the auger became
wedged in this tough material and
in trying to pull it up the derrick
was broken and work stopped. Hen
ry Wedekind, who is putting down
the we'll under contract, came to III
reka last night with his men to have
the broken parts repaired and ex-
poets to resume work Monday.
The contract for this well calls for
a depth of 200 feet and If bedrock
exceeding 10 feet in depth is not
encountered, it is intended to put
the we'll down to that depth in the
hope of encountering an artes'an
flow sufficient to raise the water
above the surface of the we'll.
The progress of this test well is
being watched with great interest
by many, for it is generally conccd-
ed that thousands of acres of fertile
land in Diamond valley will be under
cultivation once it has been proven
that the underground lake nearly uv-
eryo believes should be there has
been tapped. and although it IS
thought a depth of 200 feet may not
he deep enough to reach this con
fined underground body of water, II
! IS hoped that the penetration OF the
present body of clay already 80 feel
in depth, may release the confined
water and permit it to flow above
| the surface of the ground.-Eureka

METHODS IN EVAPORATING
POTASH BRINES DESCRIBED

In connection with the general
potash investigations that have been
carried on for several years by the
United States geological survey, a
number of desert basins in the west
have been more or less thoroughly
explored and many brines, slime rssl-
dues and muds have been analysed
tent of potash. These Investigations
show that a few American pIlhcs
contain rather high percentages IF
potassium and that most brines con-
tain it in ~appreciablc quantity, al
though salts of sodium prepOndera.eS
in all the brines examined. Eco
nemical methods fOf extracting the
potash from American brines are
now eagerly sought, INT the worG is
still in the experimental stage. fiac-
tional evaporation-a process by
which brines are eValOl&ted in stag
es and the deno|lt"l salts removed
from time to tin, - is an essential
part of what al pears to be the most
pIdCIlCdl uIct.iOu p'olooOu, dhu W.
tailed knowledge Of the effects at
evaporation on potash brines is there
fore of paramount importance. Some
experimental work to determine these
effects has been done by w. d,
Hicks of the United States geo
logical survey. Several different
potash brines were subjected to
fractional evaporation and the eft
feet on the concentration of their
constituents was determined by an
alysis. The results are published in
a recent survey publication =
Evaporation of Potash Brines" =
issued as professional paper 95-E
This report shows that, in general, by
evaporating the brines investigated
the concentration of the potassium is
increased until the solution con
tains about 4 per cent of potassium,
and that on further evaporation the
potassium salts are rapidly deposit
ed from solution along with larger
quantities of sodium salts. This pa.
per is a preliminary report, and the
data presented suggests the import
ance of a more extended investiga-
tion of American natural brines.

SOLDIERS PREPARE
FOR COLD WEATHER
CAMPAIGN THIS WINTER WILL
NOT BE AS DIFFICULT AS
LAST

BOULOGNE, France, Oct. rs.
Signs are plentiful that winter is
close upon the troops in the north
of France. The nights are already
cold, far too cold for comfort, and
the characteristic winter night-mist
from the marshes is in the air. The
trees are not yet bare, but the
leaves that remain have turned 20 q
sere yellow, while the ~roadways are
covered with fallen leaves which
the soldiers here and there heap
into little piles for a fragrant warm
ing fire.
1t is evident that there is ID be
another winter campaign, robbed of
much of the horror Of last years
ordeal in Doggy trenches and al
most impossible roads. In NORTH
ern France, 1t least, winter viii
find the ri~al armies we'll prepared
to receive /. The W ). mud, the ice
cold water knee deep in the COM
munication trenches, the ooze ana
discomfort of the duGouts, even in
the advance trenches, will generals
be fairly liva1ie, thanks to the
plentiful use of concrete and tar, and
the ski.lfu, Gill loyment of drt in
age.
Moreover, the armies will be
properly clad and amply fed. The
British soldiers will again don their
sheepskins. supplemented by ample
supplies of warm caps, sox and
heavy boots of rather better type
than last years.
Many of the trenches now have
brick floors and practically all are
drained and protected against land
slide by timbers.
The great problem of the winter
will be the billeting of all the new
divisions which have come out since
last year. In the villages we'll be-
hind the firing lines, every out
building and old barn has been re-
Questioned. cleaned, repaired An
made into shelter against the wind
and cold.
But nearer the firing lines most
OF the buildings have been smashed
into ruins, and although thew were
disable for housing purposes during
the summer. they are plainly impos-
sible after mid-November. The
problem is being dealt with to sOme
extent by the building of portable
houses and huts, but the armies
grow too fast for the carpenters.
The work of the aeroplane observ-
ers gets more difficult as winter ap-
proaches. The fogs of the late au-
tumn cling to the ground in little
patches well into the day, while the
evening mists make observations diff
ficult soon after mid-afternoon.

GOOD ORE IS FOUND
IN DIVIDE DISTRICT
JESSE WORkMAN'S LATEST DIS
COVERY SAID TO BE ONE
OF PROMISE

One ton of ore shipped So miles
from the new camp of Divide to Elko
brought $3.50, according to Jesse
Workman, who is now in Lovelock
Trembath brothers made the ship
ment, the ore having been taken
from a 26-foot vein in their shaft
which is down so feet. Two high
grade streans occur in this ledge, one
being Is inches wide and the other
two feet. The balance of the ore is
of milling grade, running between
SO and $40 a ton.
Four leases are o working on
the Workman & Davis ground and
will continue throughout the winter.
Besides the Trembath Brothers, Rizzi
& Smith, Johnson & McCrimmon and
Chapman and associates are actively
developing their leases. Johnson Il
McCrimmon have just sent out a
two-ton shipment, but the returns
have not yet come in.
Ore hauling to the railroad runs
about $40 a ton and the result will
unquestionably be a small mill at
Divide next summer. There is ample
conviction in the camp at the present
time that the tonnage now in sight
justifies the construction of a mill
and it is probable that Trembath
Brothers will undertake this improve
ment.
THE vein is a big one" said Mr..
Workman, and it has been traced on
it's strike for several thousand feet.
Several leasers who started work
last summer were compelled to quit
because of lac kof funds, but that
does not prove that we haven't d
camp. I look to see Divide a very
busy place this time next year."
Mr.. Workman will spend the win
ter in National where he holds con-
siderable mining property. He re-
ports the installation of a tube mill
by the National Mines company and
a very prosperous season for that
company. National Mines is en-
ploying about 80 men and the rich
high-grade for which the camp is IA
nous is still in evidence.-Review-
