In Memoriam

To the Noble Grand and Men,
bers OF Shelbyville Lodge No. 418,
I.OO.F.::
We your committee on memorial
beg leave to submit our report.
Bro. Dan Lewallen was born
April 3, 1856, and died August IL,
1916. He joined the | 0. 0. F. at
SheIbyville in 1906
Whereas, the great creator in His
infinite wisdom has been pleased to
send His death angel and claim as
his own our cherished and beloved
brother and remove him from the
cares and troubles of this transitOry
existence to state of eternal du-
ration, thus severiDg another link
from the fraternal chain that so
closely links US together as a band
of brothers in the bonds of love and
affection, and
Whereas, Bro. Dan Lewallen was
loyal Odd Fellow and lived up to
the teachings Of the order in friend
ship, love and truth and his loss to the
lodge is irreparable, and his wife
and children have sustained a loss
which can never be filled this side
Of the great beyond,
Therefore be it resolved, that we
bow in humble submission to the
will and the decree of the all-wise
ruler of the universe in the trans
ition of one of our brothers who
was in the decline of life, and pray
the good spirit to guide and protect
his wife and children from the
stormy blasts of this cold world and
trust they may make an unbroken
family on the hills of eternal glory.
Resolved further, that we extend
our sincere and heartfelt sympathy
to his relatives and friends and
point their weeping eyes and aching
hearts to Him who tempers the
wind to the lamb as the only source
from which comfort and consolation
can come.
Resolved that a copy of these
resolutions be rendered his family,
copy be spread upon the records
of our lodge, and a copy sent to the
Sharp County Record for publica-
ton.

FUTURE NJ. E.'S HERE
TO INSPECT MINES
PARTY FROM STATE UNIVER-
SITl ARRIVES FOR TWO
DAYS STAY

Nine students of the Mackay
school of mines of the Nevada state
university arrived in Goldfield this
morning from Tonopah, where they
have been since Saturday morning
inspecting the mines and mills of
that camp. The party is accom-
panied by Professors Lincoln and
Palmer of the university faculty.
They are here for the purpose of
making a study of practical mining
and milling methods as employed in
this district.
After their arrival this morning
they were conducted through the
new lotation plant at the Florence
mine and this afternoon are being
shown through the Consolidated
mill. where the newly installed flo
tation process is being gone over in
detail. Tomorrow morning will be
devoted to the Jumbo Extension
mine and the afternoon to the Con-
solidated mines and surface plant.

DEAL FOR TUNGSTEN
CLAIMS NEAR BISHOP
PROPERTIES BOUGHT BY LOS
ANGELES MAN SAID TO
GIVE PROMISE

A deal has been closed by which
A. j. Clark of Los Angeles be-
m the owner of the IA claims
heretofore belonging to A. W. No
bles, James Powning and c. Cooper,
and situated in the foothills about
eight miles west of Bishop. Frac-
tons belonging to 1. j. Woodin of
independence are also sold to the
same purchaser. All this is COM
pleted and the full purchase price
paid.
Mr.. Clark has also options on the
Yaney and Enloe group, the Ever
EFT and V~onderheide group of four
claims and the Vonderheide group
OF three more. These options with
the ground covered by the sales al
ready contaminated, take in all the
known tungsten ground in that sec
ton.
The first locations were made in
the latter part of August, 1913,
by Powning and Mobiles. Some fine
specimens of scheelite and other
tungsten pres were found; no extern
sive work has been done in the way
of development. Some crOsscuts
prove the width of the main ledge
70 be about 60 feet; the deepest hole
may be down 20 feet. The vein
is garnetized matter in granite
walls.
Mining Engineer l.. e. Porter re-
Gently came here and made an OK
animation, after which the deal was
arranged.
Mr.. Clark stated while here a
few days ago that at least $40. 900
must be spent before a wheel can
turn on the property and that WORK
would proceed rapidly. The out
look for success is such, especial
ly in view of the var prices now
prevailing, that the telegraph is
being used in collecting expert
mental machinery. Employment OF
a considerable force of miners, SO to
100, is the common anticipation.
The working plant on the property
will probably consist of crushing
apparatus, either roller or some 9th
err, and concentration machinery.
Experiments to decide the most
economical plan are O in prog

SHELTER AT THOMPSON
MAY RESUME SHORTLY

A report comes from Wabuska
giving grounds for a hope of imme-
date action on the part of the smell
ter people. Five men were hired
last week and put to work repair
ing cartridges and water pipes,
while tow more were taken on the
latter part of the week to repair
furnaces. This can only mean two
things. The smelter people are get
ting ready to start operation, or
else only keeping the property in
repairs. 1t is reported there is n
consolidation of the Ballakalla Blue
Stone and the Mason Valley. Ru-
mors of this character have been
abroad for some time. and the PEG.
pie hereabouts are prone to put
little confidence in them, yet the
persistence of this rumOr leads to
the hope that 1t might possibly be
true.-Yerington Times.

MILL TO Be BUILT
At PHONOL|TE MINE
MANAGER DECLARES THE PROP
ERTY HAS LARGE ORE RE-
SERVES BLOCKED OUT

II. w. Bruner, general manager
for the Paymaster Gold Mining
and other companies OPP
Grating at Phonolite, returned Sat
urday from Kansas City, where he
had been comforting with directors
and stockholders. Bruner said that
he had $4,000 worth of ore on the
dumps of the allied properties and
that he had blocked out above the
tunnel level 100000 worth more.
The new mill will come into
Phonolite by way of Austin and will
be here for transportation to the
mines by the time road conditions
are suitable for the transfer OF ma
chinery from the station to the
mill site.
OF conditions in the middle west
as he found them on his visit, Mr..
Bruner said: THE mining industry
stands with the people at the present
time better then ever before. Mon
ey is easy for good mining prospects.
| believe that Nevada will have more
recognition from men who wish to
invest in mining properties right
away than has been true for many
years. The monied men are looking
for opportunities. AS we all know,
Nevada has the properties and the
two elements of industrial success
will not be long in finding each
other out."-Reese River Reveille.

ROCHESTER MERGER
MAY ERECT A MILL
SHOWING OF PAY ORE SAID To
JUSTIFY INSTALLING RE-
DUCTION PLANT
Special to the Goldfeld News.

Special to the Goldfield News.
ROCHESTER, New. April L.
Highly satisfactory results continue
to be met with in the south drift
from the Pitt tunnel of the Roch-
ester Merger Mines company. The
face of the drift is now in ore that
gives assays up to $50 ounces of
silver and So gold per ton. and
there are indications that further
Improvement may be shown as the
drift advances. Ore is steadily be-
ing produced for shipment which
will soon be under way.
Bins have been erected near the
portal of the tunnel for the con-
venient handling of the ore, and
will be enlarged when systematic
stopping is inaugurated. The bins
a,c so located that they can he
conveniently reached by teams and
also by spur track that is to be
built from the Nevada Short Line
railway.
Until tle new compressor plant
IS installed, development will be
confined to the Pitt tunnel work
ings, but when the compressor is
in operation with a capacity of II
power drills work will be resumed
iii various places where high grade
ore has already been developed.
The proposition of erecting a mill
this year is no longer a question
OF uncertainty, as mine develop
ments are meeting the most san
guine expectations and fully justify
such a move. In connection with
the ore of shipping grade that is
being opened, there are still larg-
or bodies of excellent mill ore which
can easily provide sufficient ton
developed to a producing stage
daily capacity in operation.
The various workings that can
be drawn upon for ore are the
Pitt tunnel, the old Boughton lease,
the Ferry and Sampson workings,
two or three places on Sunflower
hill, two veins cut by the Friedman
tunnel hat are in pay ore, and
other places that a quickly be
DEVELOPED to a producing stage
when the new compressor is in
stalled.
AS remarkable as has been the
progress of the Merger company
during the last few months, it is

SCOUT MOVEMENT
PROGRESSING WELL
TWO NEW MEMBERS AXE EN-
LISTED AT MEETING SAT-
URDAY NIGHT

At a meeting of the Boy Scouts
held in the high-school Saturday
night. the various patrols of the
organization were formed ana two
ew members were examined and adj
mitted as tenderfeet. The two new
scouts are Carlyle Eubank and
Charles Gioga. Six boys are being
instructed for the tenderfoot grade.
According to Scout regulations, the
boys must remain tenderfeet for 60
days before they can qualify for the
second grade.
1t is necessary that the Scout
spend considerable time in study for
tie second grade. as he must be
proficient in much of the work of
the organization before being able
to take the higher grade. Study for
the second grade will commence on
the arrival of the official hand
books of the Boy Scouts of America.
The books are ordered and are now
on their way here.
It is one of the second-class quail
fcations that the candidate earn
one dollar. and, turning to an en-
tirely different field, that he be able
to tell the points of the compass
from the face of his watch. Those
interested in the movement in Gold
field report tat the work is pro-
crossing in a manner that is graft
tying to all concerned and that the
boys are taking great interest in the
work
