will proceed rapidly when once
started.
The plan of development recom-
mended by engineers and which
will be adopted will involve driving
a cross-cut for a distance of IS or
100 feet into the hanging wall
country and raising to the surface
to open new working shaft. This
shaft will then be equipped and
sunk in the country limestone, in
order to avoid difficulties caused
by water and loose ground that are
usually troublesome when sinking
is conducted in veins.
The shaft will first be. sunk 100
feet below the present main work
ing level, where cross-cut will be
driven back into the ore-channel,
in which the high-grade product is
found. In this manner the greatest
efficiency, best progress and high

tanned and the company's opera
tions will be under the direction
of one of the most capable mine
managers in this region. Expert

Tule canyon district.
Little is known of the sheriff s

A mining enterprise of unusual
interest to Goldfield has been
launched with the organization OF
the Red Hill Florenre Mining COM
pany, constituting a merger of the
Red Hill Mining company and the
Florence American Mining company,
formerly the Florence Extension
Mining company. The two COM
panies involved in the consolidation
own property adjoining the hold
ings of the Goldfeld Consolidated
Mines company and the Florence
Goldfield Mining company.
The provisions under which stock
holders in the Florence American
and Florence Extension companies
will be enabled to participate IN
the activities of the new corpora
tion are set forth in detail in a cir
cular letter which is now being mall
ed to the stockholders of all three
companies by A. H. Howe, secre-
tary of the Red Hill Mining COM
pany.
Mr. Howe's letter, which is self
explanatory, follows in full:

sources, no operations have been

before resuming operations, will in
sure the successful application of the
flotation process.
The manner of handling the cop
per-bearing ores from all parts OF
the company's mines, and particular
ly in the central area, has been SIM
plited and rendered less costly by
the installation of an electric haul
age system, by means of which all
ore in this central region will be de-
livered to the Clermont and Comb
nation shafts. The old Mohawk
shaft has been abandoned, as 1t had
served it's purpose and its mainte-
nance in working condition involved
a considerable expense that will now
be unnecessary. The shaft will serve
as an outlet for air, but will be dis
mantled and the big surface plant
may be used elsewhere in future.

nize the fact that their interests are
better served by levying an occa-

than by permitting the properties to
remain idle.
GOIdfield Consolidated
Manager Hutchinson has announc-
ed that at least one 500-ton unit of
the 1O00-ton fiotation plant will be
placed in operation about the first
of January. In the earlier opera
tion of a unit of this capacity it was
found that additional filtering and
settling equipment would be required
to secure the best results and this
equipment has now been provided.

Ore of shipping grade is being
extracted from the property of the
Golden State Mining company, sit
uated in the Klondyke district, hall
way between Goldfield and Tonopah,
ard about half mile north OF
the Original Klondyke COMPANY S
ground A lease on this properly
is being operated by Harry McNa-
mara, a pioneer mining lman OF
Tonopah, who has lately shipped
four carloads of ore averaging $35
per ton.
In addition to this ore, the lessee
has sacked some high-grade which
will be marketed as soon as car
load has accumulated. The ore Is
being broken from a five-foot f.
at a point where from 65 to 10
feet of stopping backs will be avail
able. The principal owners of the
Golden State property are Judge A.
f. Barnes and l.. l.. Patrick OF
Coldfeld and State Senator T. J.
Bell of Nye county. The ore is
hauled a distance of about three
miles, over a good down-hill road.
to the railroad station at Klondyke
for shipment and it is said that
there is promise of a substantial
production Of a highly profitable
srade of ore.

ASSAYS

At a depth of nearly 900 feet the
main shaft of the Spearhead Gold
Mining company is apparently en-
tering the shale contact zone and
preparations are being made to cut
station and explore the channel
of quartz lately penetrated. Az
cording to the latest reports some
assays have been obtained up 10
around $15 per ton in gold and
copper, but the management does
not claim to have exposed any COM
mercial ore. The conditions, how
ever, are pronounced highly en-
ccuraging.
With the shaft in ground that re-
quires substantial timbering, pre-
s;ress during the past few days has
been slower than heretofore, bu,
superintendent Bruce does not an
ticipate any difficulty from this
source and the property is equipped
to handle all the water that is like
lv to be encountered.
Sinking will continue to the foot
wall of the contact zone and later
ais will be exended in various di
rcctiOns to thoroughly prospect this
zone, in which high-grade ore has
been found in quantity not far TO
the west, in the Jumbo Extenson
property. The north drift on the
45O-fOot level is being advanced to
the old Wheeler lease territory

There is no longer any question or
the complete success of the process
here, as the original 50-ton test
plant has been operating continu-
ously for many months at capacity
on gold-copper ore, securing a high
extraction of both metals. The final
report of October production and
earnings shows that the cyanide de-
partment of the company's mill
treated during that month 10000
tons of ore, with a net realization of
over $1,000 With the fiotation
plant working it is probable that
considerably higher grade of ore
will be treated.

REVIEW Of mining OPERATIONS IN G0LDFIELD District

Calyx core drill, sinking the third
drill hole on the Silver Pick prop
erty. has penetrated wide zone or
quartz and the cores have been
showing black sulphides, similar in
appearance to some of the high-grade
ore found on deep levels in the pro-
ducing mines to the east. 1t is said
that encouraging assays in gold and
copper have been obtained from
this material and that the vein Is
one the existence of which had not
been suspected heretofore. This
hole, like the two farther to the
east, will be sunk to cut the shale
contact zone. In the new workings
at a depth of 100 feet. from the
main shaft, it is said that many
small seams of pay ore have been
found and although it is not claimed
that any appreciable bodies of COM
mercial ore have been exposed, a
wide seam of good ore was cut near
the hanging wall of the great quartz
channel and many good assays have
been secured below this point. The
shaft has not reached the foOt-wall
and as it is customary to look for
the best ore on one or other of the
walls in this district, the sinking
will continue later to explore the
foot-wall and the contact between
the big quartz zone and the under
lying shale or alaskite, or into the
latter.

Development work in the Ka-
wanas property has reached an inter-
esting point, over 500 feet north of
the main working winze and in the
main vein of the district, which dips
into this territory at depth. The
north drift has been progressing
along the west side of ridge in the
shale and lately a cross-cut was
driven east, passing through this
ridge and coming out in the higher
segment of the vein, part of which
appears to be displaced here by

Beot-Dressed Women Have Developed
Ideas of Their Own, to Which They
Seem Determined to Cling
Frock for Small Girl.

Complicated skirts are not looked
upon with so much disfavor by fash
ionable women for the evening as
they are for the street, but even in
the field where elaborate dressing is
most observed there is a tendency to
disregard the edict for futings and
ruftles and plaitings and loopings.
The exquisite type Of drapery with
long lines that is supposed to belong
to CaillOt is still liked the best by
women who dress well, and wherever
the Caillot sisters have departed from
this in their now skirts they have
failed. Many of their skirts, which
have yielded to the supposed demand
for horizontal drapery, are amazingly
commonplace, considering the source
from which they sprang. If one did
not have the assurance Of those who
saw these gowns in their original
habitat On the Rue Taitbout. one
would say that some American de
signer was jesting with the public

There has been no adoption in eve

it appears to be worked out to a

words, the drapery should be sharp

it doesn't swagger, 1t is a failure.
