Lineman Shot and Robbed

Assailed by three Mexicans,
knocked down, stabbed, kicked in
the face, beaten with a rock, shot
in the back, robbed and thrown
over a high cliff, Charles Misner, a
telephone lineman, arose from the
bottom of Flat Creek bluff, on the
road from Jarbidge to Twin Falls,
Idaho, and walked five miles to
Three Creek and reported his case
to the police. His assailants, three
Mexicans, later were identified by
him and almost all of $3.50 which
they stole from him vas recovered.
AS he was passing the Mexicans on
a road, one of them struck him and
in the course of a fierce fight that
followed he al overpowered.

NATIVE COPPER IS
FOUND IN SINKING
PROPERTY IN LANDER COUNTY
SHOWS ORE OF GOOD
GRADE

That the Gold Top Mining COM
pany property, nine miles from Bat
tie Mountain, has been placed in an
important light as a producer of
the Copper Basin district is empha-
sized by the recent discovery Of a
strong vein of copper at depth.
The claims, formerly known as the
Pedro group, have been mined for
gold and silver, gold values running
high, the ore showing copper stain
with traces of copper heretofore not
of sufficient value to warrant saw
ing.
Considerable development work
has been done at the mine, a cross
cut tunnel of owe 500 feet u
with extensive drifting. There Is
blocked out and on the dumps of the
company sufficient gold and silver
bearing ore to keep the mill in OPP
Grafton for some time.
While sinking on the vein FOR the
purpose of developing water for the
mill, the miners last week broke into
ore %peppered with native copper.
The vein was stripped for 20 feet
and is one Of the strongest on the
property.
This unexpected discovery 200
feet from the face and at a depth
of eight feet below the tunnel level
promises to put the property in a
separate class as a producer that
will not only turn out the gold, but
bids fair to greatly increase the cop
per output of the Basin.
The mill, an Ecleston ball mill and
concentrating plant, has made nu-
merous successful runs. The second
bar of gold bullion since Jan l was
brounght down the first of the week.

MINE OPERATORS TO
CONDUCT HOSPITAL
BUILDING REFURNISHED AND
UNDER MOST CAPABLE
SUPERVISION

On Feb. 10 the Goldfield Mine
Operators Association will assume
direct management of its hospital
on Columbia street. The building
will be refurnished and will be
known as the Association Hospital.
Miss Freda r Bergstrom. register
ed nurse from the hospitals of Min
neapolis and specially trained in
surgical technique, will have charge
of the operating rooms and will be
day superintendent, while Miss Ber-
nice Gwaltney, registered nurse
from the hospitals of Los Angeles,
will be night supervisor.
The chief surgeon of the Associa-
ton will reside at the hospital and
be on duty at all times. The gen.
eral public, as well as the employees
of the Association will be admitted
for treatment and the hospital will
be at the service of all the doctors
of the city.

PLATINUM ATTAINS
RECORD HIGH PRICE

In the Mining and Engineering
Journal the platinum metals are
quoted at an unusually high figure,
platinum being s1O5 per ounce and
palladium $135. This is a pheno-
menal price for palladium. being
six and three-quarters times the
price of gold.
The increase of $40 per in
the price of palladium during the
past few weeks has probably been
brought about largely by the de-
mand for "Palau," the alloy of gold
and palladium, used to take the
place of platinum in the manufac-
lure of vessels used in chemical
and metallurgical processes.
The Pacific Platinum Works of
Los Angeles have just finished and
delivered $4,000 worth of the
Palau ware, and have orders for
something like $4,000 additional.
A large portion, If not all, of the
palladium used in this plant comes
from the Boss mine.-Goodsprings

YELLOW PINE IN
ANNUAL MEETING
PROPERTY is SHOWN TO BE IN
EXCELLENT CONDI-
TION

The regular annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Yellow Pine Min
ing company was held at the CON-
pany office in Go%odsprings Saturday,
Jan. 10. Directors were elected and
other routine business disposed of.
The same officers were returned for
another year, which Is a testimony
of the faith the stockholders place in
their directors. For the benefit of
readers who may have forgotten, the
officers are as follows: President, j.
F. Kent; secretary and general man
ager, Fred A. Hale, Jr.; treasurer, c.
w. Kent; additional directors, s.. E.
Yount and R. B. Chapman.
General Manager Fred A. Hale,
Jr., made his annual report, which
was unanimously approved. A new
contract has been made by the COM
pany, their former five-year contract
having expired. Under the new con-
tract, the ore will not be milled, but
will be shipped crude. The contract
calls for from $4,000 to $4,000 tons
of crude ore annually. For the first
six months the price will be fixed,
but after that will be dependent on
the rise and fall of the prices of
lead and zinc.
Much of the ore will be shipped as
mixed lead and zinc ores to oxide
plants. The sorting facilities at the
mine will be greatly improved and
the lead and zinc separated there as
far as possible. 1t is expected that
the new arrangement will work out
most advantageously for the COM
pany.
The mill will. of course, be kept in
tact, in case the management should
decide at some time in the future
to resume milling. With enough
ore in sight to continue operations
for at least another year. and with
conditions on the 900-foot level and
in the south end looking favorable
for the opening of new orebodies.
the Yellow Pine has just entered
upon a year which should be as
prosperous as the two just passed.
The new contract goes into effect
Feb. l, and ate that date the ia
miliar chug-chug of the old Yellow
Pine mill will, for a time at least,
not be Misunderstanding Gazette.

COAL PRICE IS
AGAIN CHANGED
ADMINISTRATION DECIDES ON
RETURN TO FORMER
RATES

E. H. Walker, state fuel admin
istrator, left here. this morning after
deciding that local coal prices were
h~enceforth to be the same as be-
fore he lowered them, or SIC per
ton, with proportionate increases
for smaller quantities.
Few persons we're given an OPP
portunity to talk with Walker
while he was here and the local
committee was not called to con-
suit with him, according to men,
bers. 1t is said the administrator
could not be found by persons wish
ing to consult him.
The price of SIC per ton is the
one recommended by the local
committee before the conference at
Winnemucca and it Is said that To-
cal coal men cannot continue in
business with lower rates. The
exact status of the situation can
only be cleared by the administra-
tor and so that the public might
thoroughly understand local condi-
lions it was the desire of members
of the coal committee here that he
make a statement before leaving,
so that it could be explained why
it was found necessary to return to
tho old schedule after lowering the
rate but a short time ago.
1t is believed the administrator
may make a statement after his re-
turn to Carson.

COPPER BASIN
HAS DISCOVERY

Une of the most important strikes
in the Basin has just been made by
George Dewitt, leasing on the Don
Macdonald group. While prospect
ing on the surface Dewitt uncovered
some rich specimens of copper ore.
The surface was stripped for some
distance and a body of ore one mass
of carbonate and copper glance was
uncovered that will average better
than 10 per cent. A carload taken
from the surface will be ready for
shipment in a few days.
Clyde Ganser, leasing on the Glas-
go Western, has a fine showing,
struck about a month ago. There is
on the dump about a third of a car
ready for shipment.

NEW DISCOVERY Is
CAUSE OF STAMPEDE


The reported finding of a new
manganese field about 20 miles to
the south of this city by E. w. Grit
fifth and J.. H. Ladd, was the cause
OF a general automobile rush" to
the scene of the reported strike Fri
day. Two hours after the reported
discovery the hills in the vicinity of
Erie station, on the Salt Lake Route
we're being combed by many parties
in search of the ore which has
been proven lately to be n of the
big discoveries of this section of
the country. Many locations were
made.
The original find vas reported
by E. w. Griffith, which showed,
according to tests made by j. o.
G.llice of the Manganese Association
80 per cent manganese.
Among those who made the trip
to the new location Friday were j.
H. Laid, G.. H. French, F. j.
Pearce, NJ. NJ. Riley, M. J.. West and
several parties from Japan. Many
claims were located.-Clark County

Fresh Mountain Lion

A big mountain lion a few days
ago walked to where an Indian was
chopping wood outside the limits of
Ely, ate the Indians lunch and tore
his sweater, which was beside the
lunch, to shreds. When the Indian
saw two other lions in the distance
he made a fast getaway. He Sc
cured help and later he and another
Indian killed two of the animals. One
of them measured II feet and is be-
lieved to have been the largest ever
killed in the Ely vicinity.

EXTEND TUNNEL IN
MINE NEAR CARSON
IN PROPERTY OF GOOD
PROMISE

Henry Schupp of B~ellingham,
Wash, vic~e-president of the Panama
Canal Mines company, near Carson
City. arrived yesterday for the pur-
pose of getting first-hand informa-
ton of the workings of the company
and to determine the advisability of
continuing the development work OF
the mine. After his arrival he i'm
mediately left for the mine, in COM
pany with l.. A. Thomas, the mining
expert, and the result is that some
very extensive development is to be
started at once in opening up the
orebodies that have been proven by
the upper tunnel.
He stated that funds would be at
once available for driving the lower
tunnel for a ditance of 400 feet, or
until the vein was tapped.
AS stated a few days ago, the re-
turns on the first car of ore Melted a
handsome profit. This ore was from
the upper tunnel and the work done
since this shipment was made has
proven highly satisfactory. The
ledge is wider and the values con
tinue to increase. There is no ques-
ticn in the minds of those who have
inspected the property that it is des-
tined to be n of the best in the
state and will surely stimulate min
ing in this vicinity.
This is not the only property in
this vicinity that the Bellingham peo-
pie are interested in, and in which
they have faith to the extent that
they are willing to spend money to
back up. They are back of the
Washington and Nevada Develop
ment company's property, situated to
the north of Carson City, which is
under the management of Grin Du
Bots. Extensive work is going on
here, where a new shaft is being
driven to cut a vein that was opened
up by NEAR of an incline several
months ago. and which carries eX-
cellent values.-Carson News.

LOCAL MASONS TO
DEDICATE HOME
CEREMONIES WILL BE CONDUC-
TED BY GRAND MASTER
LINDSAY

The new home of Masonic bodies
on Columbia street will be dedicat-
ed with appropriate ceremonies on
the evening of Thursday, Feb. IA.
The new home, the lodge room
of which has during the past few
months been made into what Ma
sons who have seen many other
homes in the state consider to be
the finest small room in Nevada,
is now complete on the interior and
nothing remains to be done but
paint the front of the building.
In the purchase, remodeling and
equipment of the new quarters the
local Masonic bodies have gone to
considerable expense, but it is the
opinion of officers in the bodies
that Masonry will more than be re-
paid by added prestige in the COM
munity and consequent increase in
general prosperity.
The dedication ceremonies will
be presided owe by Grand Master
Thomas Lindsay of Tonopah and 1t
Is believed that H. H. Atkinson of
Tonopah, junior deacon of the
grand lodge, also will be present.
The dedication will follow a sup
per to be given at 6 p. m. and Ma
sons of Tonopah and Goldfield and
members of the Eastern Star, the
sister organization of Masonry, will
be seated at the table.
Following the supper grand lodge
will be opened in the lodge rooms
and the dedication ceremonies will
be held.

.SHAlE TREATED
IN ElKO PLANT
OTTO STALMANN HAS
FOR SEPARATING VARI-
Gus OILS

II was determined by the direc-
tors of the Standard Oil Shale COM
nany at a recent meeting in Salt
Lake TO build simultaneously with
the mill a cracking" or refining de-
partment. Accordingly, the engi-
neer of the company, Otto Stalmann,
was instructed to go ahead with
the plans and specifications with a
view to having the entire plant in
operation in four months.
The plant will be erected at Elko,
New. 1t will have a capacity OF 100
tons a day, shale. The "crack1ng"
department will be of such capacity
as to take care of all the oil as 1t
m from the retorts. The idea is
to make or separate right on the
ground all possible of the many In
gradients contained in these rich
shales. This is expected to greatly
add to the general monthly earnings
for the company. The products Will
include gasoline, light and heavy
lubricants, ammonium sulphate fer
tilizer and possibly paraffin and 9TH
er ingredients.
The process to be employed will
be that used in Scotland with i'm
portant improvements by Mr.. Stall
mann. In Scotland today they are
distilling shales mined at hundreds
of feet below the surface at the rate
of 100000 tons of shale per year.
With the Stalmann improvements 1t
is the expectation to make an ex-
traction of SO to 81 per cent Of the
oil content.
The shales in the company's 1000
acres of ground are expected to av-
erage better than so gallons and
some run up to 80 and ITO. While
the Scotch process requires IL to
"a hours, the Stalmann will take but
four to five hours to draw off the
oils.-Sale Lake Herald-Republican.

REASONS GIVEN
FOR FOOD RULE
COST OF FEEDING STOCK LED
TO Resembling
ORDERS

RENO, Jan. 30.-The recent ac-
ton of the food administration in
disseminating the observance OF
"Meatless Tuesday for the Pacific
coast states until March 13 and the
substitution of two porkless days
each week, was the result of repre-
senations made by the stockmen OF
the west, who said that owing to
drought conditions which are gen.
eral throughout these states and the
high price of feed, there has been
a sudden demand for transportation
facilities with which to market
stock.
This demand could not be met be-
cause Of %congested conditions in the
east and consequently the stockmen
were placed in the position Of fee J.
ing all winter or allowing their
stock to perish.
To remedy this situation it was
thought advisable to lift the ban and
allow beef and mutton to be used
for a period of 60 days and substi-
tute two porkless days a week. On
these days-Tuesdays and Saturdays
no form of pork or pork products
may be used and Mr.. Hoover has
asked Nevada to adhere strictly to
this ruling.

Sentence Scares Mex

Stand up. Is there any reason
why sentence should not be pro-
n~ounced?" asked Judge Taber of
Elko of Miguel Ruiz, who had en-
tered a plea of guilty to a charge
of perjury. The Mexican's courage
failed ami he demanded that he be
permitted to withdraw his plea.
Ruiz testified in an assault case and
protected his friend, who later plead
ed guilty.
