CAMP OF JARBIDGE
Jarbidse. Nevada. April 10. 1916.

Jarbidge. Nevada, April 13. 1916.
There is a general feeling Of opti-
mism in the camp and the belief is
prevalent that this summer will be
the most active season that tho dis
trict has experienced. 1t is not in
tended by this statemen, to convey the
impression that the camp is on the
boom as there is no desire to mislead
the public to the extent that a boom
Is on hand nor is one expected nor
even desired. Since the original boom
and the consequent disastrous failures
which nearly knocked the camp out of
existence, there has been a struggle to
keep the district alive and only by the
most unbeatable labor and personal
hardships has the development of the
mines been carried forward. A legiti-
mate and healthy growth of a mining
camp has been the result and the fu-
tnre prospects are bright and promis-
ing. No boom is in sight neither is
there anything here to make a boom
imminent and the friends of Jarbidge
on the outside will confer a great favor
on the camp II they do not try to force
an unwarranted boom onto the dis
trict. The camp is now in a very heal.

and 1t is confidently expected that sew

IS LOOKING GOOD

eventually prove to be OF more than
mediocre size and value. There are
more men at work than there has been
for several years and few more are
being added to the payrolls now and
then. but there are a still larger num-
Der OF men who are waiting for the
chance to go to work. While 1t is
very probable that quite a number of
men will be added to those now at
work from time to time by the differ
ent companies there are still a pie
thora of available men located here in
the camp and it is only just to the
laboring man who is looking to this
camp as an opportune place TO get
work, be he miner. mucker, clerk or
whatnot, that there is but little chance
for him and the probabilities are that
should he come in here he will have
to do as many others have done and
are doing, that Is that they will have
to walk out. A short time ago there
was an erroneous impression prevailed
on the outside that there was boom
on in here and a demand for labor of
all kinds with the deplorable result
that quite a number of men came in
here, nearly one hundred miles
through mud and snow, having to walk
most of the way and landing here
without money or friends; they were
forced to beg or bum their sustenance

for few days and then had the hard
tramp out again to the railroad. The
camp is a small one and with less
than one-third OF the residents yet at
work 1t is only barely possible to sup
port those now here and it is out Of
the question entirely to carry any
added load Of unemployed.
The camp is now having a steady
advance, but its development is slow
and will probably continue tie same,
although eventually it may make quite
a steady producer when the proper
milling methods are introduced so that
the bulk of the values may be saved
instead OF lost
There are six small mills in the
camp and prospect of one or two
more. There are about 200 men in the
camp and only about 20 of these are
working for wages. The mines that
are being worked are looking fine and
there are many good prospects waiting
development, the chances for small
capital in here are fine. what the camp
needs is money and energy backed by
more money. The average values of
the ore is from $40 to $50 per ton in
gold with little silver; the mines can
be worked economically by tunnels for
several hundred feet in depth; the ore
! chutes are OF fair workable size, there
| fore it is only question of manage
ment and treatment for these mines to
show a good balance on the profit
side of the ledger.
| sThe vein has been cut in the No. 4
! tunnel on the Long Hike, which proves
the ore chute to a depth of about 500
! feet and with the showing already
made in the other three tunnel levels
of width and length of the ore chute,
this may be called very good mine
| The developments in this mine have
G!ready encouraged the bonding OF
! several other claims and should help
TO stimulate activities enough here
this summer to in part, if not wholly
bring the camp out of debt; up TO the
present time the balance is terribly
on the wrong side of the ledger.
Developments on the o. X, which
has been worked under bond all win
ter have been sufficiently satisfactory
to warrant The making of 4 payment
of 25 per cent of the purchase price
also the working force has beer
slightly increased.
, Between the o. X. and the Flake is
the Starlight ground, which is beine
; worked under lease by Chas. Martin
. and VIM. Rowland; here they have
opened a very promising vein will

. This is the best discovery made fo

Part Wellington Bowen Took
In Memorable Prison Outbreak

Wellington Bowen. who died yes
terday morning in this city. was one
of the oldest and best known citizens
OF Ormsby county. The deceased has
ben an invalid for a great many years,
due to injuries received at the hands
of convicts on December 1, 1870, when
an outbreak and attempt Jail de-
livery was made by number OF con-
ceased, who was one of the guards at
that institution, in attempting to pre-
vent the outbreak and assist the other
guards who had been attacked. re-
ceived injuries that resulted in paraly-
sis later on. He lived at Silver City
for a number of years afterwards, un-
der the care of friends until most of
them had left the camp or death had
overtaken them. He was then brought
to Carson, entering the hospital here
nearly fifteen years ago, and at which
place he had made his home up to the
time of his death. He was never an
object of charity, having always paid
his way up to the time of his death
The legislature has from time to time
made appropriations for him in the
shape of a monthly pension in recog
milton of the valuable services rem
dered by him at n critical moment in
the outbreak at the state prison.
The following preamble to an act
that was passed by the legislature In
March, 1903, making an appropriation
for his benefit, appears on the statute.
of that year:
Whereas, On the 1st day Of De
cember. 1870, Wellington Bowen dis
played marvellous heroism in the de
tense of the state prison, and, at thu
immediate peril of his own life de
ended the officers and guards from

venting a general outbreak of tn,

life"
The following synopsis Of the &C
count Of the attempt at jail delivery
on December /, 1870. is taken from
the Carson Daily Appeal Of that date:
ION Thursday morning Of December
1, 1870, when Theodore Hawkins. one
of the guards, opened one OF the cell
doors, a convict by the name Of Nc
Clure, knocked him down and three
other conylcts, Shea. Heffron and
Loon, alias Marks, met Whipple. cap
tain OF the guards. and CcCluer stab
bed him with butcher knife; Bowen.
Lowe and Biggs, guards. heard the
alarm and rushed in. when a general
fight ensued. Bowen turned loose
with his gun, shooting McCluer
through the head and killing him in
stantly. Two other guards. Miller and
Rockwell. rushed In and were knocked
down and were almost overpowered.
when Bowen shot Heffron and put him
GU TOT business. Immediately Shea
dealt Bowen a terrible blow on the
head with sling shot, almost putting
him out. but not quite, for he turned
and shot Shea in the abdomen, drop
ping him. This about settled the at
tempt at jail delivery. The coroneTs
jury which sat on the case was COM
posed of George L. Gibson. G. N. Fol-
som, John w. Calbreath. George fluffy,
A. Curry. E. NJ. Howe and J. R. Neun-
ham, and returned a verdict that c.
Cluer came to his death from the eff
feet of pistol shot wounds from pis-
tolls in the hands of some Of the
state prison.
The remains of Mr.. Bowen were
taken to Silver City today by auto and
the funeral will take place Sunday af-
ternoon at 2 o'clock from Masonic
hall, under the auspices of the Ma.
sonic order, of which he had been an
honored member for a great many
years.-Carson Appeal.

short time and was very busy talk
ing with the owners OF several claims.
Mr.. Creighton was instrumental in de-
veloping and bonding the Long Hike
mine, which is fast coming to the front
as one of TIE best mines in the camp.
1t is not known just what ground Mr..
Creighton secured further than that he
bonded the Mccormick and Corbridge
claims on Bear Foot Mountain. This
property has the promise of making
quite a big mine.
A deal is on for the Success mine,
which has several hundred thousand
dollars worth of ore in sight and is
considered one of the promising mines
of the district.
The snow is fast disappearing and
prospecting work is being started. II

This company expects soon to begin
work on the Cyanide addition to the
mill and will probably put in small

The Twin Falls road is open for auto

in camp was Chas. Robinson in his
Dodge. from Hot Springs. on March
Goth. He brought in some passengers
and went back that evening. On April
