when officers complained to Gov

to be thankful for what they got.
The ill-treatment was not confined to
war prisoners. British civilians who
were political prisoners, with women
and children, were confined in COM
mon jails, sleeping ten in a single cell
with locked doors. resulting in sick
ness and dysentery owing to the dis

The report was discussed in the
house, assembly members demanding
that the guilty German officers be
brought to justice. Gen. Louis Botha,
in reply, deprecated hate or revenge.
He said that he had already protested
to the German authorities and was In
communication with the home gov
ernment, and added that happily the
prisoners had been released and were
no longer suffering.

SHOWS
OLD-T|ME FORM
VETERAN RINGMAN SHOWS
HIMSELF FAR FROM BE- \
ING BACK NUMBER

Fighting Dick Hyland, who will
meet Danny Mathews in the main
event of the GoIdfield Athletic
clubs fight program on the after
noon of July 4, worked out W
rounds yesterday with Antoine La
GSrave and two with Kid Bronco,
and demonstrated to the specta-
tors that he is far from being a
back number. He claims to be In
better trim than for the past four
years and fans who have see him
in action in the past and who saw
his workouts yesterday, stated
that he was still the same wonder
full fighting machine that he was
some years ago and that Mathews
has been called upon to meet the
toughest fighter of his career.
Many followers of pugilism who
have heard of Hopes defeat Of
Hyland figure that the latter will
be easy picking for Mathews, out
i: would be difficult for a promoter
to induce Hoppe to enter the ring
with Fighting Dick for a bout Of
over four rounsd. Hyland held
Hoppe to two. draws and claims to
have lost the third fight on a
luke. Hoppe is conceded to be
the best mar of his weight over
the fcur-round route.
Hyland is willing to demonstrate
Ito the fans here that he possesses
plenty of his old fighting qualities
and invites any boxer in town to
don the mitts with him.
Paddy O'Hern will travel six
rounds on the fourth with Young
Maxwell, who came here with Hy-
land. Maxwell is known as a
first-rater and holds decisions over
some of the best 133-pound talent
on the coast, including Eddie Shan
non. O'Hern made a poor show
ing against Mathews several months
ago and after the fight claimed
poor condition. He appeared to
be a sick youngster on that oc-
casion but looks different nov and
states that he will show a whirl-
wind scrap with Maxwell.
Young Dupont, whose battle with
Bronco was the feature of the
clubs last show, will again try
his luck with Tommy over the six
round route, provided the latter
pulls through in good shape in MS
bout with Johnny Morrison on
July 3 in Tonopah. Dupont pos
sesses a dangerous punch and
Dlenty of grit and NAV SurDriSe his
opponent on his next start.

IN RICH ORE

In reply to an inquiry concerning
the Nevada-Douglas leaching plant.
which has been reported in uccess
full operation, Superintendent Orem
says:
up to this time we have been OPP
Grating only internationally, having
to shut down at intervals for ad-
justments of one kind or another,
which are causing more or less de-
lay, although none of them are of
serious nature. We have every
reason to believe that things are go
ing to work out successfully with
us and that the mill will soon be
on a successful and permanent OPP
Grating basis.
In regard to the strike of
high-grade ore in the Ludwig, this
is only one of many of the high
grade shoots that are being en-
countered in the limestone footwall
of the Ludwig mine, and although
we are mining this ore at the rate
of 20 carloads per month, we seem
to have more of this character of
ore in sight than at any time in the
history of the property."-Gazette.

.SCHEELITE PLANT rs
AGAIN IN OPERATION

The Independent Tungsten COM
pany, whose milling plant was start
ed up a couple of weeks ago, found
that it was necessary to make
several changes in it's construction,
but this has now been accomplished
the mill is running steadily.
Owing to the fact that the man
agement had a large amount of
ore ready for reduction and also
q considerable tonnage in the slopes
ready to be Knocked down, all
mining was discontinued temuor-
arily. or until the present milling
supply has been treated, after
which mining will again be resum-
ed. The new plant is said to be
the model of the Snake range

below the water level will practic-
ally remove all doubt of the great
value of the property as a potential
copper producer. A short distance
south of the Rea shaft, on property
owned by Goldfield men, copper ore
of excellent grade has been exposed
at a depth of So feet.
Options nave been secured by i'm
portant mining interests on other
properties in the immediate vicinity
of the Rea property. involving large
sums of money for their purchase,
and several deals of great magnitude
are now pending in the district,
which is regarded by experts as II
of the most promising that has been
brought to the attention of opera
tors for a long time.
The successful outcome of the
Clark operations would be of the ut

would result in the building of an
extension of the Clark railroad
through the Cuprite-Jackson Mount
ain district and probably to Ida
and other mining districts south and
southwest of Goldfield.

collars of the three shafts now
open from these workings vary
but little in elevation. Bulkheads
will be installed at certain points
in the Jumbo Extension mine in
the effort to start the air through
one or other of the shafts.
Northeast of the 1917 level cross
cut, which has connected with the
cut has been driven for a consider
able distance, following the trend
of the vein where it forms a fis-
sur far within the shale. Better
ventilation will improve working
conditions in this cross-cut and a
series of raises will be driven
through the vein and upward on
it's dip. On levels above this a
large tonnage of high-grade ore has
been stopped in this fissure, we'll
below the shale's surface.
In the central part of the pro-
perty, near the Paloverde-Velvet
boundary and west of the main
slopes, ore of shipping grade has
lately been exposed at a new point
and appears to be present here
in considerable volume. Assay
records show that the main work
ings continue to yield much ore
of sensational quality. Present in
dications point to a larger net
output in June than for several
months past, the average grade
of the product during the greater
part of the month having been I'M
usually high.

PROGRESS MADE
IN BLACK BUTTE
COMPANY is PREPARING FOR
EXTENSIVE WORK ON
ORIZABA PROPERTY

Working from the old Dortch
lease shaft, at a depth of 1875 feet,
the Diamondfield Black Butte com
'pany has exposed some good ore
in territory southwest of the old
workings and at a point where the
vein can be worked to good ad-
vantage from the main shaft at
greater depth. The present work
is in the nature of prospecting ADD
Is being conducted by the COM
pany, the lease on this ground
having been relinquished to the
company some time ago.
Northeast of this point r the
old Slopes of the company, from
which high-grade shipping ore to
the value of 100000 was extrac-
ed in the early period of opera
tions in this part of the district.
The relation of the vein now be-
ing explored to the main Quartite
vein, or to the so-called flat vein
has not been determined, as the
formation throughout this area is
greatly broken and most irregular.
Preparations are being made Sy
the company to work its Orizaha
property, north of Millers, on a
comprehensive scale and equipment
for hosting, together with a COM
pressor and power drills, will be
installed shortly. President L.. X.
Ko'ontz has returned from San Fran
cisco, where he purchased the new
equipment. Miners are working on
the 95-foot level of the property.
where good ore is exposed, and the
lower levels will now be unwater-
ed and thoroughly developed. Ac-
cording to late reports there are
good prospects for the early block
ing out of sufficient ore to justify
the installation of a mill of sub
stantial capacity.

from Tuscarora last evening, says
Tat the work of sampling the i'm

tives of the company have bought
Tie Fred Wilson residence and the
Oh water office at that place and
are fixing them up for occupancy.
The main ore dumps are known
as the Grand Prize, Navahoe and
Independence, and contain many
thousands of tons of ore, which is
low-grade, carrying values in sill
Yer and gold, mostly the former,
or about S.. Some of the dumps
are regular mountains or ore and
shafts at various places will be
sunk to get a general sample of
the ore. An ore crusher is being
installed and the sampling works
will be very complete.-Elko Free
