OLD COMPANY IS
TO Be FINANCED
PLANS FORMULATED TO DEVEL-
OP MINES OF GREAT
PROMISE

e. j. Woodman, who is interested
in mining properties in California,
has undertaken the financing of the
property of the st. Anthony Mining
company, of which Joseph Dede-
richs is president.
Mr.. Woodman spent a few days
here this week looking over the prop
erty and was so well pleased with
the showing that he lost no time in
getting to Chicago, where his asso-
ciates are located.
The Columbia mine, which is the
property of the st. Anthony Mining
company, is one of the Oldest in the
district, having been located in 1882
by Joseph Yount, Ben Hamilton and
Harsha White. 1t was bonded and
leased many times under their own
ership and ore has been taken out
of it by each leaser. In 1906 it was
bonded to Joseph Dederichs of Po-
mona, Cal, and he formed the st.
Anthony Mining company, which has
owned the property ever since. Mr..
Dederichs got into financial difficult
ties during the panic of 1907, in
which year many good mining prop
ositions went to the wall, but Dede-
richs managed to hold on to the Co
lumbia group. 1t has been worked
lately under lease to Mr.. Dederich's'
son and p. j. Mckinney, who have
made several shipments of high
grade copper ore.
The group owned by the st. An
thony company is II of the most
promising of the district, and with
proper financing and the acquisition
of a treasury it should be made one
of the greatest producers. 1t is on
the line of the proposed railway, is
equipped with a tramway to carry
it's ores to the right of way, and
transportation would then be a small
item in the expenses of mining its
ores.-Goodsprings Gazette.

SnOWslides at Jarbidge

William Perkins, a pioneer OF
Jarbidge, nearly lost his life when
his home at that place was struck
by a tremendous snowslide. The
building, which had only recently
been completed, was one Of the
finest residences in the town. The
slide carried it a distance Of zoo
feet and hurled it against another
house. A large pole was in the
path of the slide and it cut it's way
through the building. Perkins
was in the house when it was struck
and was rendered unconscious by
the shock. For several days it was
thought he would not recover, but
he has now regained consciousness
and it is believed that he will live.
On the same day numerous other
slides occurred, but they did little
damage.

HAYSTACK DISTRICT
MAKES FINE SHOWING
LAGRE BODIES OF MILL ORE
DEVELOPED WITH GOOD
RETURNS

Out in Humboldt range not many
miles northeast of Rochester is a
mining camp with the euphonious
name of Haystack. This sounds
more like farming than it does like
mining, but the appellation was be-
slowed quite a number of years ago
because out in that somewhat iso-
lated section of the country a man
who did not care to have any near
neighbors took up a homestead and
attempted to make an appreciable
venue from hay that he could haul
to market. He cut the native grass
and piled it up in immense stacks
that made a landmark which could
be seer for many miles around, and
so the locality became known as
"Haystack."
But it has developed that there
were other things around there that
savored of wealth more than did
the hay fields, and this was a zone
of gold-bearing veins that has been
proven for a length of two miles.
A great deal of prospecting has been
done in this region with good re-
suits, and considerable development
work is now in progress. The most
active operations are being carried
forward by the Haystack Mines
company, which has large quantities
of good milling ore blocked out and
in sight. Two shafts show ore to a
depth Of 60 feet, the values ranging
from 81 at surface to 1925 per ton
as exposed down the shafts. The
metal contents are principally in
gold.
The company is prosecuting de-
velopment work with a view OF
blocking out sufficient ore reserves
to justify the construction of a
proper and adequate reduction plant
for the ores, which are a combina-
ton of ~sylvanite and free gold.
Indications point to the making OF
a big gold mine and the creation OF
another producing district in the
Humboldt range.-Reno Journal.

MAID IS
INCORPORATED
PRINCIPAL OFFICE WILL BE
MAINTAINED AT LAS
VEGAS

The incorporation of the Lucky
Maid Silver, Lead and Zinc Mining
company. with principal offices at
Las Vegas. has been completed. Fhe
officers and directors of the COM
pany are: President, Thomas Clark;
vice president, DR.. Roy w. Martin;
treasurer, E. w. Clark; secretary,
H.. H. Johnson. The directors are
Geo. A Fayle, DR.. Roy w. Martin, E.
w. Clark, Fred A. Hale, Jr. and
Thomas Clark.
The company owns four valuable
claims and a fraction near the Green
Monster mine in the Yellow Pine dis
trict. Considerable work has been
done on the property and some ore
shipped. There are 10 about two
carloads of shipping ore on the
dumps. The camp buildings are
erected and all equipment is on
hand.
1t is the intention of the manage
ment to drive a tunnel in about 200
feet and tap the rich ore exposed in
the drifts. Machinery will be I'M
stalled as soon as possible. R.. t.
Leonards & Co. of this city will have
the handling of the treasury shares.

COPPER BELLE
MAKES SHOWING
SALT LAKE OPERATOR SPENDS
DAY IN GOLDFIELD CONSULT
ING SUPERINTENDENT

F. v. Bodfsh, an eminent Colo
RADIO mining engineer, manager of
the Alta Tunnel and Transportation
company's property near Salt Lake,
and holding the same position with
the American Flag company at Park
City, Utah. who has been visiting
for a few days with H. P. Johnson,
formerly superintendent of the Cop
per Belle property at Contact, about
26 miles from Nina, left this morn
ing for Ballarat, Cal, where he will
conduct an examination of a prop
erty.
Mr.. Bodfish is a member of the
company controlling the Copper
Belle property, now urder lease to
wealthy Nevada cattlemen, under
whose direction it has been pro-
ducing a car a day since being taken
over by them about a month and a
half ago. The ore on the property
is taken from a glory hole in sur
face operations, the vein being 40
feet in width and assaying as broken
duOuI 900, tic ohiphuChIo, oiISA
sorting, averaging from $45 to
$50 in gold and copper, the gold
content being from $12 to SIT.
The product is hauled 26 miles to
Nina, the shipping point, on auto
trucks carrying three tons of ore
and hauling a trailer carrying eight
tons, the margin of profit being
considerably larger than under
former arrangements.
The Copper Belle lease was taken
over by it's present operators from
A. E. BEETLES, who commenced work
some time ago after having operated
on the same property about II years
ago. BEETLES sold the lease for a
substantial figure to the cattlemen
after he had proven the ground by
opening the large body of ore now
showing. During the period the
property vas operated by him he
made but one carload shipment, de-
voting his efforts to opening the
ground with a view of disposing of
his lease.
The present lease owners now
have 10000 tons of ore in sight,
with the prospect of opening a far
larger tonnage as development
progresses.

COMBINED MINES
SHOW RICH ORE
SHEPHERD VEIN HAS WIDTH OF
NEARLY HUNDRED
FEET

Work performed during the past
week in the crosscut OF the Shop
herd vein, on the estate of the
Rochester Combined Mines company
in the Rochester district, has ad-
vanced a total distance of 81 feet,
and no definite footwall yet en-
countered.
The drift from the Shepherd
crosscut to date has been advanced
81 feet, which has continued in ore
assaying from $14 to SIG a ton.
Optimistic reports from the prop
erty have been coming in steadily,
and the first opinion, hat the mine
would be one of the greatest in the
state, is being strengthened by each
days progress in development work.
The working tunnel is now in 26
feet under cover and is being driven
with all possible haste. Machine
drills are being operated two shifts
in these places.
The large machine drill sharp
ener has been installed and the new
machine shop should be completed
during the coming week, according
to advice from the property.
Trenching on the south side of
the hill, or 1900 feet north of the
Shepherd tunnel, has been started,
and if the weather conditions per-
nit, it is expected that the main
veins cut in the Shepherd tunnel
will be cut at this point within the
next few days.
A new 100-horsepower Sullivan
air compressor and receivers have
been purchased by the company
and will be rushed to the property
from the factory for immediate in
stallation.-Lovelock Review-Miner.
