ARE
BIG ASSET
TO LOAN
CHiSES ARE HEAVY IN
COUNTY

At a meeting of the county coun-
ell OF defense and block captains.
lei. saturday nisnt N the ':oi!t
house, the captains reported that
excellent progress was being made
and that in some local districts total
sales would reach from $4,000 to
$4,000.
Judge j. Emmett Walsh, director
of the council, stated that from
progress being made at the present
time he hoped for a 100 per cent
over-subscription in the county, or
the raising of $4,000.
One Of the captains asked the di-
rector how persons reporting the
purchase of bonds could be checked
to ascertain that the bond or bonds
actually had been purchased. This
has been a big question with block
captains, many of whom were re-
lieved with the directors answer
to the effect that ample means
would be provided to check every
reported purchase.
In conversation with various cap
tains it was learned that there has
been much straight talk by them
to some non-subscribers and that
more is to follow. 1t was learned
that this talk had brought results
through a clear understanding be-
tween the captains and persons in
their districts as to the meaning
Of the Third loan and the non-sub-
scribers' cards hat are to be dis
tributed, it is believed, some time
next week.
The matter of the distribution of
the non-subscribers' cards will be
discussed at a meeting of the
Ill next Saturday night.
The work of the women captains
has teen particularly gratifying to
the council and to date the wOmen's
committee that has been working
in conjunction with the council has
secured 329 subscriptions for a to-.
tai of $34,10O, which is generally
considered a great record in
the work and one that demonstra-
tes that some hard and conscienti-
Gus work has been done, in some in
stances under circumstances that.
were none O pleasant.
A few days ago one of the wo-
man captains approached a m
who was on her way to the bank
to buy bonds and, as the m
was in her district, asked that credit
be given her in making the pur-
chase. The oma answered, You
must be getting a graft out of it."
This is oftentimes the temper-rais-
ing condition under which the wo-
men work, but they have come to
regard it as all in a days work.
The Goldfield people have not
permitted the Liberty Loan to inter-
fere with their purchases of war
savings stamps, as for the first 13
days in this month, or including
Saturdays sales, the total was So
917, or the best record for a cor
responding period since January.
The total sales now amount to over
$21 500. War-savings stamp sales
in Millers total $~1,16S.SO.

Seeking Bond Credits for State

Governor Boyle has been sending
communications to nonresident own
ers of Nevada properties and mines
asking that they apportion their
Liberty bond purchases so that the
counties in which the properties and
mines are operating may receive
proper credit.

supplied from the No. 2 shaft of
the mine.
Jim Butler Mine
Due mainly to the improved con-
ditions of the Jim Butler mine, as
confirmed by the successive reports
rendered by the management, the
earnings of the company have shown
great increases in the pasI few
months over those that were report
ed previously.
Not since September of 1917 has
the Jim Butler company shown
profits that are equivalent to the
March earnings, and the indications
pointed out by the weekly reports
that have lately been maoe by the
company are more than satisfying
to the management. 1t has been re-
ported, in fact, that the mine Is ca
pable of producing a greater ton
mage of ore than was shipped last
month, the only drawback being
that the Belmont mill, which is
working not only on it's own ores
but on those of the Tonopah Mining
company and the Jim Butler, is now
getting up to capacity and there is
so much ore coming to the mill that
shipments have to await their turn.
Con. Spanish Belt
At a distance of y7S feet from
the mouth of the tunnel of the Con
solidated Spanish Belt Mining com
pany, an immense flow of water
was encountered. Immediately prior
to striking the water, many quartz
stringers were cut, all of which, ac-
cording to the weeks report, show
ed iron s%ulphides, zinc and molybde-
mum. Work has Deen discontinued
until the flow of water has abated
but where the face Of the tunnel
now is it shows a smooth hard wall
which is thought to be quartz. The
indications are stated to be very
favorable.
North Star Mine
There is no change of any kind
to report as to the operations at the
North Star. All the workings which
have been under way for the past
several days are making good prog
ress.
The employees of the North Star
company are credited with subscrip-
tons to the Third Liberty Loan OF
$500, which is a highly commend
able recoru, and fully up to the
standard established by the other
companies of Tonopah whose re-
turns are yet incomplete.-Tonopah

mill 2277 tons, the Tonopah Min
ing $3.50 tons, the Tonopah Exten-
sion 2459 tons, the Jim Butler 493
tens, the West End $50 tons, the
MacNamara 527 tons, the Montana
200 tons, the Cash Boy 46 tons, and
the Midway 6S tons, making the
total production for the week TO-
PIG tons, the estimated value being
S174,692. This valuation is calcu-
lated on the gross milling value of
the ore.
The monthly cleanup of the To
ncpah Mining company at its re-
duction works at Millers resulted
in the production of 20 bars, which
at the rate that is quoted for sill
yer at the present time, has an esti-
mated valuation of $51,500, this es-
innate being placed upon the ship
ment by the officials in charge of
the local office of the company.
The development record for the
past week was ZAP feet. The foot
e at the Sandgrass was consider
ably less than usual, by reason of
the fact that a great deal of the
time during the week was consum-
ed in the installation of a small
hoist at the head of the under
hand stope on the Lower Sandgrass
vein, which was getting too deep to
be worked conveniently. At the
same time, track for the running of
an ore car is being laid, to hoist the
product from the stope.
The Silver Top workings were
advanced at about the usual rate of
speed, making a total foOtage of So
feet during the week. In the Miz-
pah ground, however, the develop
ment work exceeded in amount any
weeks total recorded for several
months past, there having been 81
feet of work done in raising on
some good showings of ore.
All the operations in the mine
at it's several sections, were contin-
ued ahead under much the same
general conditions hat have previ-
ously been reported, with little
change at any of the workings, ex-
cept, as mentioned, in the Sandgrass
territory, where the company was
H. llt~n nnn0coor U
equipment to take out the ore from
one of its Slopes.
In the Silver Top portion of the
mine, on the 24O-foot level, the
Stopping work went on as usual. The
vein holds its width at about 2 feet
and the stope Is gradually making
Roadway on the extreme western
end of the vein. This work is all
being done at a point west of the
shaft, and up to date has been pro-
q, duced and sent to the mill.
On the 34O-foot level, the raise
on the small vein south of the shaft
is making the usual progress, and
still shows a small streak of mill
ing-grade ore, no particular change
having been noted as greater height
is attained in the raise.
Some new work, in the way of an
intermediate cross-cut, has been
started in the footwall of the Valley
View vein, and already promising
conditions have been found.
TOnOpah Belmont
The splendid progress that is be-
ing made at the Tonopah Belmont
Development company's local prop
erty, and the developments on sew
eral of the main vein systems of
the mine which elected from Presi-
dent Heller expressions of gratifi-
cation on the occasion of his visit
to Tonopah last week, give rise to
the confidence that has been ex-
pressed by many keen observers in

The Woodsons at Zolfo

Rev. T. r. Woodson of Punta
Gorda, accompanied by his esti-
mable wife, arrived in Zolfo
Springs on last Monday and are
now occupying the pastorium,
near the Baptist church. Rev.
Woodson has accepted a call to
serve as pastor Of the local
church. He has been located at
Punta Gorda for a number of
years, and during his pastorage
there gave splendid service and a
good account of his stewardship,
and the church there was loath to
give him up. The local church
has been without a pastor for
some time, and the members are
to be congratulated in being SO
fortunate as to secure this God
fearing man for their pastor. Rev.
Woodson will fill the pulpit on
next Sunday, both morning and
evening, and well filled house is
expected to greet him.-Zolfo

Names of Aviation Fields

MANY of us have wondered
whence came the names of the
aviation Fields at Arcadia. The
Times-Union of Saturday informs
us as follows:
Dorr feld.-Named after Cadet
S. II. Dorr, of the Aviation Sec
ton. Dorr enlisted in the sum-
mer of 1917 and was sent to To-
ronto, Canada, for training. He
met his death there in a flying col
lision on Aug. II of the same year.
Carlstrom field.-Named after
Victor Carlstrom. Carlstrom was
recommended for a commission
in the Signal Officers Reserve
Corps, Aviation Section, on Jan.
10, 1917, and soon thereafter went
to Newport News to assist in the
training of army flyers, although
not ordered to active duty. He
was killed in an accident at New
port News on May 9, 1917.

1t will be cause of regret to
many people to know that, after
the coming Saturday night s
show, the Plaza Theatre will close
for the summer. So many of our
people, as well as tourists, have
gone abroad for the summer, that
the patronage of the theatre is not
enough to pay the expense: hence,

Rigdon Weeks and family, re-
turning from a visit of several
weeks to their former home in
North Carolina, stopped over here
a few days last week before going
to their home at Marco. In this
paper will be found an official GER
tificate from a North Carolina
county officer that refutes SLAM
der said to have circulated here a.
bout Rigdon Weeks. The Her
aid has never heard the SANDER;
and, if it had heard it, would not
have believed it. Rigdon Weeks
is all right.
The garage which the Hewitt
Brothers are building will be. the
biggest of its kind to be found
outside of the largest cities of the
State. Indeed, we do not believe
that either Jacksonville or Tampa
has garage that is larger than
Hewitts' will be. Hewitts' COW
ers a ground space of so by $50
feet. The walls will be of brick
veneer and the floor of concrete.
The Hewitts are building for the
future as well as for the present,
and they deserve great deal of
credit for what they are doing and
have done. They are amongst
the few who are adding to our
taxable wealth.

Emmett has the nucleus Of bust

ed by Mrs. George Huebener. 1t is
Mrs. Huebener's intention to limit her
pupils to ten, number to which she
can give personal and individual at
tention, and as several of these are
advanced students and will. have fin
ished their course in a short time,
there will be vacancies for the admis-
sion of others. Already several ap-
plications have been placed on the
waiting list.
Mrs. Huebener has had wide exper-

cisco and under Gregg in the Chicago
school of shorthand and typewriting,
which system she now employs in her
work here. She was an instructor at
