That a custom mill or c~oncentra-
tor would return large profits at
Contact, the big copper district
now being developed in northern
Elko county, is the opinion of II.
NJ. Shields of Salt Lake, who re-
Gently visited the district. There
is also a good opening ror a strong
company which will sink to the
sulphides or zone of secondary en-
richment; and great need of a rail-
road. The nearest railroad point is
at Rogerson, Idaho, a distance Ct
81 miles, where ore is hauled for
shipment to Salt Lake smelters.
Two fve-ton trucks and several
four-horse teams are engaged in
hauling ore, the trucks making a
round trip every day, an unusual
record and one which indicates good
roads. The Seattle Contact Mining
company is the principal shipper,
having sent to the smelters since
February 18th, 35 carloads of As
tons each. The ore shipped, accord
ing to figures given Mr.. Shields,
averaged IL per zen copper, six
ounces silver and 80 cents to So
gold per ton.
These shipments were made from
the Delano group and the ore was
found in a fissure vein in grano-
diorite, the h~igh-grade deposits be-
ing from two feet to 10 feet thick.
The mine is opened by a tunnel and
75-ft. winze, and the greatest depth
reached is IT'S feet. The company
has installed an air-driven donkey
engine at the collar of the Wine

power gas engine for the operation
Of an air compressor, and for hoist
ing through a vertical shaft of Two
compartments, through which the
vein is being developed at greater
depth.
The camp takes it's name from
the big veins which make on the
contact between lime and quartzite
and lime and grano-diorite and

WALKER BROTHERS TAKE
BOND ON TUNGSTEN PROPERTY

Good reports are coming from the
Granite Creek tungsten properly
owned by Carl Stolfelt. George Far
ris, G.. w. Carly and P. V. San
ders. The property, situated about
twenty miles northwest of Golcon-
da, was recently bonded to Walker
brothers of Salt Lake, who have
a force of six men doing develop
ment work, with results which in
dictate it is one of the largest and
richest tungsten deposits ever dis
covered. In some places it has
been opened up for a width of 20
feet and the ore runs from l to 20
per cent tungstic acid.-Humboldt

BULLIONVILLE MILL is
READY FOR COMMISSION

The Bullionville mill, constructed
recently by the Prince Consolidated
M & S. company was given a try
out during the week and it is ex-
pected that the plant will be plac-
go in regular commission at once.
The plant has been built with ca
pacity for the treatment of 200 tons
a day and it is estimated that
there are enough tailings at Bullion
vile and in Dry Valley to keep the
plant going steadily on the above
basis for a period of two years.

A Saloniki dispatch of several weeks

the middle of May, but that it had
been postponed aud might be ex-
pected in July. There are some
10000 Servian troops on this
front, several hundred thousand
French and British soldiers. 1t is

Jitney Dances Subject to Tax

f. T. Patrick, deputy attorney

"jitney" dances come under the
classification of amusement halls and
are subject to a license under the
new state law. The opin-

Killed by Runaway Car

A few days ago at the quarry Of
the Arden Plaster company, five
miles west of Arden in Clark county,
w. A. Criss was terribly crushed
when his engine was struck by a
car of ore which raced down the
trestle from the loading station.
Criss had pushed the a up the
trestle and then ran the engine to
the foot of the grade, where he
crawled under it to make repairs.
The man at the loading bin had the
car blocked, but when he took
the block from under one of the
wheels to move the car, it got
away from him, running down the
grade and striking the engine with
such force hat it was driven over
Crisis, inflicting injuries from which
he died while being taken to Arden.
