POLICE DOGS HELP
IN WAR on CRIME
SPACIOUS Animals Go With eluecoaes
on Patrol In Outlying Ssetions.

New York.-New York's police dogs
are having q large part In cleaning up
crime in the Flatbush section of
Brooklyn and in making it a place
where women may walk the streets
safely late at night without fear of an
noyance. The vigilance and activity
Of the dogs have done much to rid this
coy settlement Of detached houses Of
tramps, idlers and criminals. The dogs
have also done much In Riverdale,
where several were dispatched after q
series Of burglaries.
The police department is devoting
considerable time to the serious train
ing Of these dogs with view to find
ing out to what extent they may be
used in certain lines Of police work.
Kennels for the accommodation Of
twenty-four dogs have been built at
Foster avenue and Ocean parkway,
two blocks from the Parkville police
station, and good sized dogs hos
pital has been constructed, in which
the animals when i'll may be isolated
and receive veterinary treatment.
There are twelve full grown Belgian
and German shepherd dogs in the de-
partment, and to these may be added
a litter OF nine German shepherd pup
pies, which arrived at the kennels re-
Gently. The dogs are in charge Of
Sergeant Joseph Hickey, who has thir-
teen patrolmen to assist him in their
handling. 4 dog is assigned to each
patrolman. Every night the police go
out to patrol with the animals. The
dogs wear large leather muzzles, so
that they may not bite any one, for
they are powerful enough to tear a,
man limb from limb.

TUSCARORA COMING
TO FRONT RAPIDLY
ONE OF OLDEST PROPERTIES IN
STATE SHOWING FINE
FORM

Revival of Tuscarora, New, augurs
much for the Sagebrush state. 1t
carries ~certainties for prodigious re-
ward for capital engaging there in
both the regeneration of the "old"
Tuscorara workings and in bringing
into condition for yield what is rec

ground. Much of the latter adjoins,
or is in close L~-ntiguity to the Tus-
carora mines O. the SOS and COS.
which yielded thousands of tons OF
ore so rich that it was almost pure
silver and gold.
Time-stained records of Elko coun-
ty, showing very large taxes col
lected by the state off the Tuscaro-
ra pioneer owners, confirm the mag
nificence of the wealth they took
unto themselves before and immedi-
ately after the civil war. Then only
the higher grade products of the
mine were necessarily hauled to San
Francisco by oxen and consigned, via
Cape Horn, on sailing vessels to
Wales for smelling.
Shafts were flooded at relatively
shallow depths. Lack of pumps of
sufficient strength to unwater them
forced abandonment of these work
irgs. Decentralization of silver in
1878 discouraged during an entire
succeeding decade any attempt to
operate in the district.
Deaths occurred of nearly all the
pioneer claim from time to
time, and when the last of these re-
sponded to the call of his Maker a
few months ago some of the conced-
ed richest ground in the district for
the first time became subject to act

held by the New Tuscarora Mining
company, composed principally of
Salt Lake residents.
This syndicate preceded by but a
few months the advent in the dis
trict of the Stewart Mining company
of Occur d'Alene, Idaho. Directors
of this corporation had been seeking,
during an entire year, a meritorious
mining property which might justify

searching the entire North American
continent, until they visited Tuscaro-

PLACER MINING
GROWS POPULAR
ROUND MOUNTAIN COMPANY
PROSECUTES YORK ON
EXTENSIVE SCALE

r. H. Ernest. superintendent Of
the Round Mountain Mining COM
pany says he will be later than
usual starting p~lacering on an ex-
tensive scale, owing to the cold wea-
Their of this month, which has kept
back the water in the upper end of
the various canyons and draws, feed
ing the pipe line of the Round
Mountain Mining company. Never
theless this is a happy augury for
the summers work since it means
that the season will be prolonged
and the saving much greater than
the last two years. While the
fall has been less than normal it
came early and was preceded by
rains that soaked the earth and
thus insures a better flow when
frost releases it's grip on the frozen
moisture and lets the streams come
down the canyons. Last year the
precipitation was greater but the
bulk of the water came out almost
at once following a heavy spring
rain that washed the snow into the
gulches and the result was hat the
placering season was curtailed.
Operations will begin about the first
of April.-Tonopah Bonanza.

LESSEES OPERATE

BREAKING GOOD GRADE OF ORE
PREPARATORY TO
SHIPPING

Operating on the Moss Copper
company estate in the Fitting dis
trict has been assumed by leasers.
II. S. Mcleod of Hawthorne Sc
cured a lease on the ground and
now mas a force of men at work
taking out a shipment of copper ore
of which he now has a good body
opened up. The property is near
that of the Nevada Ore and Copper
company, which has a good gold
strike on which it is operating a
mill, and about four miles east of
the Southern Pacific at Acme Tank.
II was located in 1906 and owned
by Utah people. the late John Mar
wick of Provo being n of the heav-
lest owners Since his death the
property, which consists of a number
of patented claims, has been lying
idle. Several attempts have been
made to secure leases on the ground,
but not until II. S. Mcleod secured
the present one were there any let.
A few shipments of high grade cop
per ore were made in 1907.
With the splendid showings of ore
now uncovered it looks as though
Mcleod is shortly destined to be in
the money. 1t is an easy haul from
the mine to the Southern Pacific
railway at Acme Tank. With this
lease operating and the Copper King
further up the canyon also operat-
ing and making shipments, that sec
ton of the Luning district promises
to become a second New York Can

WESTERN ORE co.
TO BU|lO SAMPLER
WILL BE LOCATED AT HAZEN
AND WILL HAVE LARGE
CAPACITY

A 6O0-ton sampler will soon be
built at Hazen by the Western Ore
Purchasing company to care for the
enormous increase in the ore out
put of the state. F. NJ. Manson,
manager of the company, said to-
day that plans are being considered
for the building of the new plant
and it will probably be started in
the near future.
The company is now operating a
300-ton sampler at Hazen and the
new plant will give the company a
900-ton daily capacity for handling
state ores.
The sampler will be equipped to
handle all kinds of ores and at the
present increase in the state output
ming full capacity at all times.
"The movement of ore in this
state" said Mr.. Manson, "is the
greatest it has ever been and the
coming summer promises to be the
most active in the history of Ne
vada mining. Old camps, such as
Candeleria, are turning out an nor
nous volume of ore and practically
every old camp in the state is
s%pringing into life.
I'VE have been considering the
erection of a new sampler at Ha-
zen for some time and present condi-
tions justify the building of the
plant. Just when work will be
started on it has not been definitely
decided upon but it will probably
be in the near future"
