Altogether the sitlation looks good.
and most satisfactory results are
predicted.-virginia City Budget.
News today from the Union Con.
mine Is of a very important char
acter, further development work
from the raise from the $500 level
at the 40-foot point showing the
vein to have a width of fourteen
feet between walls. Two feet of
ore on the foot-wall and from four
to six feet on the hanging wall is
first class ore, and the intermediate
is all of milling value, the entire
width giving an excellent average of
milling grade ore. Work north and
south on the ore will follow at once.
The encountering of the ore at
! this point adds greatly to the d.
mansions of the orebody which is
giving such good results from stop
Ing operations on the 24O0 level
and gives additional backs of ap-
proximately 20 feet below that level.
As the vein is apparently stronger
below the 2400, there is ample rea-
SON to believe that 1t will be found
to extend to indefinite depth. The
vein along the 2400 was opened up
and ore is being extracted for a
length Of over 200 feet, so there is
every indication that the same con-
ditions will be found to prevail be-
low the level.
! The blasting into the ore from
the $500 raise is therefore of ex-
treme interest and Importance for it
not only demonstrates the extension
Of the ore below the 2400, and in
Increasing strength, according to de-
velopments to date from the raise,
but bids fair to add most substan-
TALLY to the bullion production of
the property.
The shares of the Union Con. have
taken a sharp advance on this lat
est development in the mine.
Ore extraction and development
work is moving forward with good
results in the local mines this week,
and conditions continue of a most
favorable character. The Union
mine will have a large ore produc-
ton this week and 1t Is of spec
ial interest to learn that on the last
day of the year 1917 and the first
day of the New Year ore shipments
from the mine to the Mexican mill
had a value of $4,000.
This is the largest two days ore
shipment made from the Union, In
many years. That the mine is look
ing we'll is amply shown by the
splendid ore production.
At other points at the northend,
the exploration work is being at
tended by unusual interest and
promising outlook, especially in the
Con. Virginia on the 200 level,
where driving in a ~southwesterly
direction on the vein exposes a very
strong formation, showing more

B. NJ, Bridgeport, Conn. = The
Gold Reef district is situated a
short distance south and southeast
CT Tonopah, north of Klondyke, and
the mining men were first attracted
to this region by discoveries made
some time after the first rush to
Goldfield. The district adjoins the
Tonopah Gold Mountain district,
where an important discovery was
reported lately on the property of
the Tonopah Divide company. Little
development work has ever been
done in the Gold Reef district, al
though the surface indications at
several points are pronounced n
c%ouraging.
q. III. W, Albany, n. Y.-Plans
for the renewal of mining opera
tions in the Bullfrog district are
still hampered to a considerable ex-
tent by war conditions, involving
high operating costs due to the ad-
vance in the price of all supplies.
AT several points, however, ener-
getic work is in progress, notably
on the Consolidated Mayflower prop
erty, in the Pioneer section, and on
the Sunset M. & d. company's prop
erty, near Rhyolite. Both these
properties have made important
ore exposures in the course of re-
cent work and with the Mayflower
mill now in operation, the prospects
for a return of material prosperity
to the district plainly are brighter
than for a number Of years past.

Talk about slow trains through Ar

pared to slow trains through Virginia.
There is distance of seventy-fve
miles, in which the train made fifty
two stops. It seemed that we would
never get to Newport News.
/ must confess that enjoyed secret
satisfaction in being delayed. I am
not coward. I was not compelled to
enlist in the army, yet as we neared
our destination htere arose in my
heart secret longing to be back at

Something seemed to forbode coming

Everyone seemed to hate Newport

We arrived in Newport, safe and
sound, as they say, and were conveyed
to the camp in an army truck. From
the time that we alighted from the
train until we reached camp all that
we heard were tales of woe.
The receiving barracks-that is a
row of very unsanitary tents where
all the men are taken before they are
assigned to company-was pictured
