RICH COPPER STRIKE IN
OLD BULLION DISTRl(T MINE

Some months ago mention was made
of the bond and lease of two patented
mining properties in the Bullion dis
trict by the Palisade Copper company,
and this week T. w Smith, manager of
the company, spent several days in
town, says the Elko Free Press. While
here he was seen by the Free Press
man and talked freely of his work in
opening up the old mining properties.
The company is composed of prominent
Boston capitalists, who propose to ear
ry on the work on large scale. On
the recommendation of Mr.. Smith they
took a bond and lease on the two pat
ented mining claims known as the
90 Heckla' and "Silver King and
this winter Mr. Smith began the work
of cleaning out the old tunnel. When
in a distance of $50 feet, at place
where a drift had been run from the
main tunnel, they found a cave-in that
completely blocked the tunnel. In clear
ing Off the dirt for a. solid foundation
for the pillars they uncovered a body
Of ore that the old miners had com
Dletely missed, the top of the ore com
ing to within a few inches of the bot
tom of the tunnel. Mr.. Smith opened
up this ore body for a distance of 10
feet in length and eight feet wide, but
has failed to find any walls whatever.
sample of the ore clear across the
exposed vein goes 25 per cent copper.
There is story connected with this
old property that has been brought to
light by this recent strike. In the '70s
shis property was found by a miner,
who developed the property and found
II so good that he had it patented. At
hat time copper ore was thrown out
on the dump, as useless, and nothing
was shipped but silverlead ore One
day the owner came out of the tunnel
and walking onto the dump, dropped
lead from heart trouble. The mine
was closed and has never been worked
since that day. II passed from hand
% hand until the Flynn Farm company
f Des Moines, Iowa, came into pos
ession and by them was sold to the
palisade Copper company. 1t is known
that rich silver lead ore came out of
his mine, and Mr.. Smith believes that
when he gets the tunnel cleaned out he
will find the old ore bodies He has
no data of the underground workings,
but says judging from the size of the
lump the tunnel is fully 800 feet into
6he hill
Last year several carloads of copper
ore was shipped from this dump and
brought a fair return.
Mr.. Smith is very optimistic over
the future of the Bullion camp, and
avs that with the present high price
Of metals there should be great activi-
" in the district the coming summer
and that in another years time Bull
lion will be ranked as one of the great
est camps Of the state.

STEELE-SMITH'S NEW LUNCH ROOM IS NOW OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

The latest addition to the citys lunch- rooms, and one of the most beautiful in the city, is located on the fifth floor of the Steele-Smith Dry Goods company, and was thrown open to the public yes terday. President A. w. B. Johnson of the Steele-Smith company states that the lunchroom will cater to shoppers and business men at the noon hour, and will not serve evening meals except on Satur- day nights.
 The first impression one gets on step- ping from the elevator to the fifth floor is that he is in a vast garden. The din palms and greenery, and presents a cool and inviting appearance. Silent fans serve to keep it as cool as one could desire, and the huge windows give all the light necessary. Silent, neat waitresses swiftly serve the food than which there is none better in the city.
 The opening was marked by a very large attendance yesterday and hundreds of shoppers and business men could not get to the tables. A waiting list was formed. One of the striking features of the opening was the unusually large number of business men in attend ance. The scrupulous cleanliness of ev- erything, combined with the excellent service, and the 'no-tip'' policy should serve to make it one of the most popular midday lunching resorts in Birming- ham. Positively tips are barred" says Mr. Johnson.

Grand Fireworks Display TOnight-Many Features of Interest to Attract
 and Amuse

l warm welcome was extended to a l large number of Confederate veterans at East Lake park last night, and there | is little doubt but that larger number will be present tonight and the following two days. Tonight marks the first of the wonderful pyrotechnical displays, the grandest that have ever been given in Birmingham, and preparations have been made to accommodate great crowds at East Lake park.
 There will be lots of things to interest and enthuse those who visits the park this week. There will be a larger or chestra than usual at the dancing pagoda, and a specail programme has been ar ranged for the dances each evening. The orchestra is situated a raised plat form at the far end of the pagoca, all most completely hidden from view by large palms and flowers. The fireworks will be set off on the opposite side of the lake from the entrance, in order to
 insure the safety of all of the spectators and also to increase the grandeur ot the display.

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Lyric


 Jack Wyatt and Scotch lads and las sies on the bill for this week at the Lyric work hard to please With Scotch songs and dances and the skirl of the pipes, they provide about 20 minutes of lively entertainment. There are about q dozen persons in the company who en- ter thoroughly into the spirit of the occasion and succeed in creating a. real Scotch atmosphere. As the headline fea- ture of the bill they became instantly popular last night and were greatly en- joyed.
 Hayden, Borden and Hayden are three talented young men whose "bits of vau- deville' made a decided hit with the audience which was loath to part with them. They are all three clever en- tertainers and one is a master of the concertina.
 Chief Caupolican, an Indian whc speaks drawing room English, confesses to having been educated in Paris and sings a song in French to prove it, is an unusually gifted red man. He sings well, tells some good stories and in- cudes among his offerings an Indian dirge. Chief Caupolican is easily one of the best artists seen at the Lyric in sometime.
 Cliff Bailey did some dangerous acro- batic work which was marred by vul- garity. He would make a much better impression without some of his attempts at comdy.
 Equili Brothers are billed as masters of equilibrium and easily sustain the title. They are remarkable team and some of the feats they do are start ling. M A photoplay was substituted for the instructive Pathe weekly, which would have been much more acceptable.

 MT. Asquith immediately after the con- ference returned to Dublin by automo- bile. He was enthusiastically cheered by thousands of the populace. As no civil or military officials were present at the conference, it is supposed that the question of the future government of Ireland was not discussed.
 During the evening the Ulster union ist council received the following tele- gram from Sir Edward Carson: q know nothing whatever of the rumors as to the government of Ireland appearing in the press nor as to the foundation of them.
 London, May 15-Little heavy fight ing is in progress in any of the vari- ous war theatres. The French, in the Mouse hills, to the east of Verdun in a surprise attack, have cleared the Ger mans from trenches over a front of about 200 yards and also have put down in Champagne several German attacks. Bombardments alone are taking place around Verdun.
 Along the British line in France bonn bardments and sapping operations are being carried on. East of Loos the Ger mans succeeded in gaining a footing in British trenches, but were able to hold them only a few minutes under count CT attack.
 The Italians in the Monte Adamello zone have succeeded in occupying posi- tions in the sector between Crozzon Di Fargoda and Crozzon Di Lares, which are of great strategic values in their movement against Trent. The Italians also have made further progress against the Austrians on Mount Sperone.
 Attacks by the Austrians to the north of Lensumo were repused by the Ital-
 ans. Elsewhere along this front there have been only artillery engagements. Artillery duels only are reported from the Russian front.
 In the Caucasus region the Russians are continuing their advance against the Turks, according to Petrograd. In the operation toward Mosul, having Bagdad as it's objective, the Turks are declared to have retreated precipitately before the Russians, abandoning war materials The Russians are pressing on in pur- suit

 ASACOTTON PATCH
Atlanta Veteran Praises Hospitality of City and Predicts a Successful
 Reunion

l.. NJ. Park of Atlanta is in Birming- ham for the purpose of enjoying the re- union, and he is quite frank in acknowl- edging it.
 Birmingham gave us veterans a royal reception in 1908" stated MT. Park yes- terday afternoon, "but the city seems to have gained in experience since that time, for it appears that we are going to have the best reunion ever held this time.
 T remember the first visit I made to Birmingham when the town was hardly more than six months of age. It was nothing more than cotton field of broad expanse, with here and there frame building, and an occasional brick build ing, housing a small store. These small brick store buildings were the most pre- tentious structures of the city at that time. I came over here for the purpose of investing my entire fortune, which consisted of something like $3000, in Bir- mingham real estate. I looked the ground over, and decided that $500 to $500 was too much to pay for lot here, especially as l did not know whether or not it ever would develop. l have never ceased to kick myself for not investing my 5000 here then, and probably will never cease to regret it.
 Birmingham is beautiful city and the reunion here promises to be memorable"
