Grandma Consolidated
Sinking continues without inter-
ruption on the Grandma property
and the shaft is now at about the
70O-foot point and is expected to
reach the shale contact zone at from
$50 to 500 feet. Good progress is
being made III sinking and funds
have been provided by a recent as
sessment.
Lone Star Consolidated
Arrangements are being made to
start development work under favor
able conditions on the Lone Star
property, at a point where good as

in a vein of great promise. The
work is to be carried on under the

assay returns show q constant i'm
provement in the grade and width Of
ore exposed, until the entire winze Is
now In rich ore and no attempt has
yet been made to determine its full
width. The drift on the 400 level
has been advanced some rs. feet be-
yond the winze, to the north and to-
ward the hanging wall, and is now
showing what appears to be the con-
tinuation of the same ore.
Above this drift a raise has been
driven to a height of about 40 feet
and drifts have been started north
and south on the vein from the top
of this raise. The work OF retlm-
boring the main shaft from the 500
tc the 60O-foot level was completed
a short time ago and 1t is the inten-
ton of Manager Kendall to conduct
extensive development work on this
level.
The shaft is 500 feet deep, with
stations at the 700 and S00-foot
levels, but little work was done by
the old company on the deeper levels
beyond preparing stations. Work at
present is being conferred upon the
exploration of the vein near the re-
cent bonanza discovery on the 400
foot level.

from Hawthorne, where he has been
wiring business houses and residen-

complete and the town now enjoys
light and power supplied by the
observation-disclosures Power company,
whose high-tension line passes near
Hawthorne. Several hundred dol

EARLY-OAY MINE
AGAIN OPERATED
OLD LIBERTY PROPERTY IN
NYE COUNTY BEING
REVIVED

The old Liberty mine, situated at
Liberty, 20 miles north Of Tonopah,
has opened a rich body of ore that
may reward the owner for years
of patient waiting and an invest
ment close to half a million dol
lars. The news was brought in by
M. H. Aubrey, who has been in
charge of the mine for the past five
years. The discovery at a depth of
so feet was made Feb. 3 and since
that time a drift has been run on
the ore for a distance of 20 feet,
disclosing a width of 10 feet that
carries 60 ounces of silver and six
and one-half per cent lead, making
one of the finest shipping and smell
ting ores.
The vein was found directly after
cutting through a faulted one for
a distance of go feet. While the
orebody was opened at a depth of
only 60 feet in the mine was de-
veloped in early days to a depth of
700 feet and a great amount OF ore
was taken out in the early '7Os by
the first Mexican owners of whose
operations there Is no reliable rec
ord. From appearances the first
wner ran over the formation and
continued to depth until they failed
to find anything justifying them in
continuing operations.
The Spanish operated a
small roasting and pan amalgama-
ton plant at the old stage station
of San Antoine about half way be-
tween Belmont and Austin and ship
ments we're made to Phoebe n
Salt Lake, by OK teams as far back
as 1866. Later, by about lo
years, a company from Austin built
a hypo- sulphate plant at which 1t
treated the dump ores and stopped
a little high-grade to sweeten the
process. In 1901 Cramp & Sons,
the great ship-builders, bought the
property from Lige Harris and nroc-
ted a concentration, which failed to
give results.
Then the Cramps sold to James
G. Lindsay, at that time a wealthy
iron and steel man of Philadelphia
who, associated with Stephen B. Ell
kins and others, formed a close cor-
poration which continued the r
of development. Failing to gain
adequate returns and the other
stockholders growing dissatisfied,
Mr.. Lindsay reimbursed them fer
their investment and took over the
entire property as an individual
risk. Then he advanced the CON-
pany $4,000 with the Elkins es-
tate retaining an interest.
The next step, when the admin
istrator baked at further disburse-
ments, was to buy out the EIkins

AJAX VICTOR OVER
BERNE IN 10
MINUTES
PROVES COMPLETE MASTER OF
OPPONENT AT ALL
TIMES

At the end of 10 minutes OF
gruelling wrestling last night in
Tonopah, the veteran Victor Ajax
threw William Berne and brought
to an abrupt termination their fin
ish Graeco-Roman match.
The end came with a suddeness
that the big crowd in the Airdome
was not prepared for and at a time
when it had settled down to witness
a. long tussle.
With cat-like agility Ajax threw
Berne over his head with terrific
force, following him to the mat and
pinning his shoulders until Re-
fierce King Pierce declared him the
winner. The fall took Berne COM
pletely by surprise and he %as
thrown SO hard that he was COM
pletely winded for some time after
leaving the mat and later declared
that the force of the fall nearly
broke his neck.
From the start of the contest
Berne was at times apparently lost
and evidently realized that he had
met his master at the Graeco-Ro-
man style. On several occasions
wien he resorted to ca~tch-as-catch-
can methods he was reprimanded by
the referee.
The veteran Ajax, over SO years
of age, was in the pink of condi-
ton and had forgotten none of the
tricks of the game. Since starting
training he had confidently predict
ed to his local admirers that he
would throw Berne and many of
them cleaned up in fancy style last
night through backing him with
their coin.
After waiting for 10 minutes to
secure the grip that would bring
home the bacon, Ajax hooked his
opponent at the end of that time
with a revers body hold from
which there was no escape for
Berne.
Ajax weighed 1929 pounds and
his opponent 210.
Ajax said after the match that
Berne vas as strong as a bull and
that his style was a rough one.
but that the style used by an OBJ
ponent was always immateri+i tc
him as he knew them all. r., sail re
had never been in danger of being
thrown at any stage of the contest.
Berne said after the contest that
as he had agreed to meet Ajax in
the Graeco-Roman style, he hoped
the latter would give him a return
match in the catch-as-catch-can
style.
Ajax says he Is just as willing
to meet Berne catch-as-catch-can
as Graeco-Roman, as he has had
20 years experience in Europe in
the former style.
Johnnie Morrison won all the
way in his scheduled six-round bout
with Kid Neil and scored a knock
out in the fourth. Neil went a long
way outside his class when he tack
led the local boy.
Kid Sullivan and the Fighting
Trout went four hard and fast
rounds to a draw.
The show Is generally consider
ed to have been the best staged in
either Goldfield or TOnopah in a
long time and is believed to have
revived interest in the wrestling
game.

To Prevent Fish Entering bitches

The w~ell-stocked fish streams OF
Nevada have troubled irrigationists
since large numbers of bitches yer
dug in different parts of the state,
and fish screens in many cases have
proved ineffective because they be-
come clogged with debris too read
lily. Ed Morton, a sportsman Of
Reno, has now invented a device con-
sisting of a paddle wheel turned by
the stream. The device has been
tested and it is said that 1t fright
ems away all small fish that attempt
to enter the bitches through the
paddles striking the water. 1t is
thought that Morton has solved the
problem.
