OWNERS DECLARE THEY
HAVE FOUND RADIUM

Quite a bit of v'crk of an inter
esting nature is being done on the
Eagle group of claims, sever miles
north of Tonopah. The claims be-
long to Woodbridge and Frazier, who
are prospecting the property for IA
dunn.
Mr.. Woodbridge found radium ore
of a good grade, and has lately Sc
cured the services of w. e. Noel to
take charge of the work. Mr.. Noel
has had much practical experience
in radium ores in Colorado. They

Killed in Auto Accident

Mrs. Nancy McNeilly of Reno was
instantly killed in an auto acct
dent that occurred a short distance
out of Reno on the road to Carson.
Mrs. McNeilly and her brother, Je-
rome Higgins, were on their way to
Carson. When they reached a point
on the road about six miles from
Reno, near the Ferretto ranch, the
steering gear of the auto refused to
work and the car left the road,
turning over and pinning the occu-
pants underneath. The accident
was seen by Mrs. Ferretto, who ran
to their assistance and later tele-
phoned to Reno for aid. A a con-
tanning Reno men was soon on the
scene and the auto was lifted from
the victims. Higgins escaped seri-
Gus injury, but when the auto was
lifted it was found that Mrs. Mcneil
ly was dead and it is believed that
she was instantly killed when the
car fell on her.

Developments of the greatest in

Cracker Jack property within the
past few days. The east cross-cut

main shaft, driven to cut the Column

vein, which, farther to the south,
is the main ore-channel of the

many millions in rich ore. The
cross-cut has exposed a broken oxi-
died formation, indicating the
proximity of the fault, with many
small seams and veinlets of ore
yielding high assays. Developments
of the next few days will be watch

j. Ii. NJ, Lansing, Micb.-Your
former inquiry was answered in the
query column in the issue of the
News of July 90. No work is being
done on any of the D.. Mackenzie
properties here. The Frances-Mo-
hawk still has a considerable sun
of money tied up in banks by litiga-
ton over the settlement of the af-
fairs of the defunct State Bank &
Trust company. some of which may
eventually be paid to the stockhold-
ers, but the property here has re-
NAMED idle. The Goldfield Jupiter,
Goldfield Madonna and Combination
Extension companies, like the Fran
ces-Mohawk, have protected title to
their ground, but this ground is of
questionable value and nc work has
been done by any of the companies
to prove up their holdings. There
is little prospect of any early work
on any of this territory. Mr.. d.
Mackenzie is said to be in New York
at, the present time.
f.. c., p, Washington, ID. g. -
Your inquiry regarding the Gold
field Consolidated is answered in
the news article on the first page
of this issue. With the success of
~flotation achieved in other mining
districts and the process being per-
fccted to apply to Goldfield ores
under direction of the best metallur-
gical advice obtainable, there is no
reason to doubt the success of the
process here.
az important effect on the property,
as those identified with the company
are confident that pay ore will be
found at this depth. The cutting
of the vein was expected earlier,
but an error in measurement of the
work performed placed the depth
greater than was shown by actual
figures and the estimate therefore
proved Ore of good grade
has been found in this vein, a short
distance to the south.

Contractors Unable to Continue
Work the Past week.
Start Work Again this Morning and will
Rush it Through to Com
pletiOn.

Weather has been raising cain
with the paving job on west
Bayfield, street which is being
put in by Welsh & Company,
and the contractors have been
compelled to discontinue work
for practically the entire week.
They started work again this
morning and will continue it
through as fast as possible in an
effort to complete the job before
weather interferes again.
Welsh & Company have a large
amount of equipment and with
favorable weather can complete
the work in very short time,
but since beginning the job the
weather has been against them
at all zines. Mild weather is
desired while the concrete base
is being laid but after that part
of the work is finished the
asphalt top can be laid during
freezing weather.

War Tax Hits Theatres.

After the first day of Novem-
ber, 1917. every theatre in the
United States is going to be hit
by the war tax which goes into
effect at that time and the Wash
burn theatres of course come
under the law.
The law provides for tax to
be paid on every admission
ticket sold and in addition there
will be a film tax which is
charged by the, exchanges to
The theatres.
In many of the larger cities
throughout the country theatres
have raised the, price of ad-
mission in order to meet this
added war tax. while some few
theatres have not raised the
price of admission but have
asked that the patrons pay the
war tax, which the law provides
for.
Because of the rush in the
revenue department blanks, etc
have not been sent out ard
Manager Trowbridge is waiting
for these before he determines
just how to apply the tax.

F. T. Beers, of Washburn, has
been prevailed upon to serve as
manager of the Bayfield, county

launched for the purpose of
raising funds for the Army &
Navy Y. M. G. A. To give him

success the drive which is to be

Der 18th, Mr.. Beers has chosen
I. R. Nye, of Bayfield,; Martin
Rogan, Of Cable; Frank Bartlett,
of Drummond; Byron Ripley, of
Iron River; C. III. Werden, of
Mason; Warren w. Wilmer, of
Washburn. Mr.. Beers and these
chosen lieutenants held a meet
ing in Washburn Tuesday night
for the purpose of mapping the
compaign.
In his letter notifying his
helpers of the duty he had laid
upon them, Mr.. Beers says: THE
statement has frequently been
made, by men whose sons are
enlisted in the army, that they
would be far more more willing
to make this sacrifice if they
could know that their sons, pro-
vided if they escaped casualty,
would return to them as men and
not as buns. | believe that this
is the feeling of every person of
right mind thruout the country.
There is no influence doing more
to prevent the thing they fear
than the Army Y. M. c. A.
Funds must be raised for carry

cellent organization both in this

being called for aggregates

Northwestern Fuel Co. Announce
Drop to Govt Prices.
Rebates will be Given on All Hard Coal
Sold and Delivered After
Oct. LIST.

/ Washburn is to feel the effect
Of the government fixing of coal
prices according to an announce
ment made by Supt. John w.
Gibson of the Northwestern
Fuel company yesterday. The
price takes effect as of October
1st and all persons purchasing
hard coal since that time are
entitled to rebate by bringing
their receipts to the office of the
Northwestern Fuel company in
this city where the refund will
be made.
The following are the prices
as fixed:
Nut coal $9.15, formerly 1885
Stove coal $9.05, formerly 1920
Buckwheat coal same price as
before.
No drop in the price of soft
coal was announced but it is ex-
pected that this will also follow,
although the Northwestern
people have no information to
this effect.
The docks in this city now
have a big supply of coal on
hand and there is not likely to
be a shortage in the city the
coming winter. Coal shipments
will continue to arrive at this
point until the close of naviga-
tion in the fall.
