DENT AT THE PINE TREE
G A NJ

At the Union Amalgamated com
'pany property at Manhattan, the
preparatory work at the Earl and
Merger properties necessary before
the starting of the company mill mas
been about completed. AT the out
set it was found that the Earl's
working shaft had caved from be-
between the rs and $50 levels. This
necessitate1 retimbering the shaft
for IS feet and mucking the caved
material from the entire shaft to the
$50. level. This has been slow work
due to the Cecayed shaft timbers,
track and piping being all mixed
with the waste. However, the cave
proved somewhat of a blessing in
disguise, as the caved ground has
left exposed a very promising shoot
of ore IN the hanging wall.
The Litigation Hill Merger shaft
has been pumped out to 400 feet.
This has drained the earl and Mer-
ger workings. All is in readiness
for underground work. The mill
will commence on Dec. Is. The ore
bodies have been sampled.
At the Big Pine a large lodge has
Teen cut in the south gloryhole.
From the Train-Chase lease on Mus
tang hill, IS tons yielded $3.50
per ton by amalsamation at the War
Eag'e Mill. A previous lot gave
500 per ton. Three shoots have
been exposed in sinking the shaft.
The White Gaps Mining company
has jhst distributed checks makins
the final payment in the liquidation
of the debts taken over from the
old company at the time OF the cor
g~anization. 1t is understood that
company operations are to be started
shortly, the first mining work to
be the sinking of the vertical shaft
for another 100 feet.-Correspond-

Copper REST CONr', FOR

There was much published sew
eral years ago as to aluminium re-
placing copper as a conductive met-
al and for other usages. Recent
INC extensive tests have refuted this
contention, the Montana Power COM
pany having reached the conclusion
that copper is in every respect su-
perior to aluminium for purposes or
conductivity, the latter not having
the strength of copper, requiring
more supports and consequently adds
to the cost of construction and
maintenance of the lines. There
are many other reasons for copper S
superiority as a conductive metal
and copper producers have no long
er any fear of it's being superseded-
by aluminum.-Mining World.

GOLOF|ELO Wins
IN BASKETBALL
SENSATIONAL CONTEST PLAYED
TO TIE; EXTRA PERIOD
REQUIRED

Goldfield defeated Tonopah on the
Airdome court in the silver camp
last night in one of the fastest
games ever seen on a southern No
vada court.
The ink, which has stuck with
the local team when playing on the
-oncpah court for the last -four
years, was broken when the WINS
tie blew the conclusion of the last
five minutes of extra play, which
was necessary to determine the win
ner of the game since at the concln-
sion of the two regular Commute
periods the score stood a tie, 21-21.
The local team in the first few
minutes of extra time made a field
goal and later put in a free throw,
while the Tonopah team was annex
ing but one point, leaving the To-
Gals winner by the score of 24-22.
The town team in the first half
clearly outplayed their opponents
from the first whistle until the fl
nal count of the period and amassed
a total of Is points while the lads
OF the silver camp were garnering
Dat IL. The local quintet showed
a Letter line OF teamwork in the
lirst half than they did in the seq
ond and also were more expert IN
1aSKe shooting.
The second period saw the fast
and snappy teamwork of the TCno-
pah squad come into full play. The
lads of the Tonopah team gradual
ly decreased the lead of the locals
until at the final whistle the scor.
was tied.
1Ie extra five minutes Of play,
necessary under the new rules, we're
-llled with sensational plays until
e.na.ly the entile audience was on
its feet wildly cheering for one
cam and then the other. The final
"hls,le blew in the midst OF an en-.
citing play and the spectators au
vel as the players seemed hardly
caLable Of realizing hat the game
vas over.

ionopah quintet and played a last

A total OF II of the 22 points OF
The Tonopah score. Cuddy was sec
ond with a total of six points ana
covered the entire floor in a fine
manner, starting plays thai result
ed in scores several times. Dynan
scored two field baskets for his
,eam. while O'Connell and Smith
Doth stuck with their men and saw
to it that their opponents did not
get a free throw for a field basket
during the game.
Smythe, the recruit on the local
team, was high scorer for the home
team and put into the net four field
goals and four foul baskets for n
total of ~ points. Smythe is due
to develop into one of the best
players seen on the local floor. Rnse
n Mccall shared second honors
with two field baskets each. R,ise
played a great game against But!cI
at center although he had not had
the benefit of the regular practice
with the team.
Johnnie and Dean Morrison both
Melted a basket each, but registered
their most valuable service in keep

boys are the %speediest kind of guards

A return game has been sched-
uled for the middle ut January GU

are evenly matched, and Whenever
they come together a fast, snappy
game is assured the fans.

The hunting season for ducks
and prairie chickens opened on
the 7th. There seem to be plenty
of ducks this year but the prairie
chickens are scarce owing to sew
eral causes, principal among
which is the wet spring.
There is one provision regard
ing the state law regarding which
there is considerable confusion
and that is with regard to the IL
cense. The law requires every
hunter in the state to have a IL
cense. The price Of this license
is one dollar and it can be secured
from the county auditor or any
of the many deputies about the
county authorized to issue them.
The only exception is in the case
of farmers and settlers who are
permitted to shoot small game on
their own property without Ii
cenSe.
The federal and state laws re-
garding shooting Of small game
are practically identical, the one
important exception being the fed
eral law which limits shooting
during the open season to- the
hours between sunrise and sun
set.

May Be Short

Leading steel companies are
giving more serious attention to
the subject of maintaining an adj
equate supply of iron ore at blast
furnaces, and fears are held that
despite the strenuous efforts
which are now being made to
bring the largest possible tonnage
from Lake Superior ports before
navigation closes in the fall, the
stocks which are being piled up
will not be adequate to meet the
heavy demands which will be
made upon them during the win
ter and early spring, says Skill
ling's Mining Review. 1t is be-
lieved in well-informed circles
that the question of ore may exert
a powerful influence on pig iron
prices within the next six or eight
months.

DROWNED
Another Drowning Takes Place
Sunday Morning.

Anton Dahlin, aged 33, an en-
ploye of the ce-Robinson
company, operating on Burnside
Lake, was drowned Sunday morn
ing in an unaccountable manner.
Dahlin had been in the camp only
a few days and on Saturday even
ing wandered away. The camp
is located on the north arm of
Burnside Lake. When he did not
return a search was instituted and
his body was found Sunday morn
ing. The supposition is that in
the dark he wandered into the
lake.
The remains were brought to
the city and taken to the Laing
undertaking parlors, from where
the funeral took place Tuesday.
No relatives of the unfortunate
man have been located. Dahlin
has been an employee of several
lumber companies in this vicinity
for several years and was known
as sole the Bull" among his ac-
quaintances.
