RICH SAMPLES CAUSE
EXCITEMENT AT YERRjNCTON

Considerable excitement was arous
ed in the vicinity of the Pioneer
stables Wednesday morning when
Charles Davis who arrived in town
Tuesday night from somewhere in the
hills, opened his bag of samples and
displayed his find, says the Yerington
Times. Davis crushed numerous small
pieces and PANIED them. disclosing a
fine showing OF free gold in every
instance. There were many pieces in
which the gold could be readily seen
with the naked eye. Davis has been
waiting all winter to get to this pro-
perty. and was only able to get there
Tuesday. and at that considered him
self lucky. The snow was from fifteen
to twenty feet deep in the gulches.
His property happened to be on the
south side OF the mountain, and was
the only place from which the snow
had disappeared

level, it will be possible to raise the
drill by means of the hoist at the

Telephone have been installed, by
means of which signals can be given
between the engine house or office

RETURNS
FROM OATMAN TRIP
TELLS OF CONDITIONS PREVAIL
ING IN THE ARIZONA MINING
DISTRICT


Ralph Wardle has returned from
Oatman, where he spent two weeks in
vestigating conditions IN this old-new
mining camp. He says:
THE town is overbuilt and business
is overdone. 1t will require years for
the developments in the mine to catch
up with the town. That is all ! can
tell you unfavorable regarding Dat
man. In all other respects it pleased
me.
This is not, as some may be led to
believe, new camp. 1t has been
in existence for many years. The
Tom Reed and Gold Roads mines
are both equipped with mills and have
paid dividends. What caused the pre-
sent excitment was the taking over
by f. A. Keith, Seely Nudd and j. c.
Jackling of the control of the United
Eastern, they purchasing 100000
shares for ten cents. The stock is
now worth more than 81 share. They
sunk shaft on the endline of the
Tom Reed and found the ore. They
have il opened up and blocked out on
the third, fourth, fifth and sixth levels
The veins in the camp are huge and
there is a network of them cropping
but, except in rare instances, the rock
is low grade milling. While the veins
crop, they are not poor mems PROPOSE
lions. but heavy money is needed fol
development None of them has YET
paid from the grassroots.
THE people in the district are high
