ORE STRUCK
ORE SAID TO GO AS HIGH AS
$1,000 TO THE TON FOUND BY
GEO. OWENS NEAR THE SUR
FACE OF THE GROUND.

One of the richest strikes in this
section is reported to have been
made by George Owens, last Satur-
day, while prospecting out in the
mountains about II miles south of
Vidal and something like "a miles
from Parker A vein of rich ore was
uncovered near the surface of which
it is hard to form an estimate Of it's
value, but it is said will yield, from a
rough guess, in the neighborhood of
$1,000 to the ton.
The vein at the point where the
high-grade was found is about two
feet in width but it's extent has not
yet been ascertained. The ore car
ries gold and silver, principally the
former, and every piece of it is
fairly lousy with the yellow metal.

DIAMOND VALLEYS TEST WELL
Now Down Seventy-two Feet
With Water Standing to With
in Eighteen Feet Of the
Surface

The test well that is being put
down in Diamond Valley has reached
a depth of " feet and there is 81
feet of water in the well-the water
coming to within IS feet of the sur
face. The first flow was struck at a
depth of 20 LIZ feet, but was not very
strong. AT 33 feet another flow was
encountered that was strong and
raised to within 18 feet of the sur
face, where it has since remained,
although the well has been continued
on down to 72 feet. The casing has
only been put down to a depth of 26
feet, the formation from that point
being in clay. and for the most part
in heavy and tough material that
proved to be exceedingly hard bor-
ing for the auger.
On Thursday the auger became
wedged In this tough material, and
in trying to pull it up the derrick
was broken and the work stopped.
Henry Wedekind, who is putting
down the we'll under contract, came
into Eureka last night with his men
to have the broken parts repaired
and strengthened and expects to re-
sumo work next Monday.
The contract for this well calls for
a depth of 200 feet, and if bedrock
exceeding ten feet in depth is not
en- countered, it is intended to put
the well down to that depth in the
hope of encountering al ~artesian
flow sufficient to raise the water
above the surface of the well.
The progress of this test well is
being watched with great interest by
many, for it is generally conceded
that thousands upon thousands of
acres of the fertile lands of Diamond
valley will be under cultivation once
it has been proven that the under
ground lake nearly every one believes
should be there has been tapped. and
although it is thought depth of 200
feet may not be deep enough to
reach this confined underground
body of water, it is hoped that the
penetration of the present body of
tough clay-already so feet in depth
may release the confined water
and permit it to flow above the sur
of the ground.

BOUNTY LAWS FAVOR
TRAppERs OF STATE
Liberal Payment Made for Kill
ing Of Coyotes, Wildcats and
Mountain Wolves in
Nevada

Bounty laws in the State of Ne
vada, not generally known to the
public. provide liberal payment by
the State and counties for the killing
of many animals.
A trapper is entitled to collect SIPS
for a coyote or prairie wolf, $2.75
for a lynx or wildcat and $40 for a
mountain wolf.
Each county in the State pays the
following amounts for scalps: Coy
ote or prairie wolf, so cents; lynx or
wildcat, So; mountain lion. S.. The
State Board of Stock Commissioners
will pay through the county clerk of
each county the following sums in
addition: Coyote or prairie wolf, rs
cents; lynx or wildcat, rs cents;
mountain lion. SIS.
Trapper Keeps Scalps
The Board of Stock Commissioners
requires that the entire hide be pre-
scented. The county clerk removes
the four feet at the knee. which
leaves the trapper with the scalp
with which to collect the bounty paid
by the county.
The last Legislature passed a law
authorizing the Board of Sheep Com
missioners to pay the same bounty
as the stock commissioners, but this
law compels the County Clerk to cut
off the four feet and the ears and
scalp. The trapper who collects the
bounty from the sheep commission
ers, therefore. loses the bounty paid
by the county. as he has no scalp to
show that he trapped any of the ami
mails for the determination of which
he is paid.
