H-GRA
AT Irrational

r. s.. Bolam. superintendent of
the National Mines company's pro-
perty at National, arrived in town
Wednesday with another lot of high
grade ore from the Stolfelt & Wat
kins lease on the bonanza estate
for shipment. While the value of
the ore was not given out it is
understood that the shipment is
worth from $40 tG $50 a pound.
This is the second shipment of
high-grade ore from this lease and
is of the same character and value
as was taken from the same vein
when the National mine was con-
sidereds one of the richest mines in
the world. A large quantity of the
ore in the present shipment is al
most solid metal with very little
quartz and is known as electrum
ore, the values running about equal
parts in gold and silver. This is
so rich that it makes beautiful
jewelry.
Superintendent Bolan states that
there are now eight sets of leasers
at work on the National Mines
company's ground.-Humboldt Star.

DEATH TAKES
PIONEER MINER
WILLIAM CAMPBELL, WE'LL
KNOWN HERE, PASSES
AWAY IN ELY

William Campbell, one of the pi-
oneer mining men of the Goldfield
district, died yesterday morning in
Ely, according to word received
last night by his nephew, H. j. Nc
Guigan, who has left for Ely.
Campbell was connected with the
Mohawk, Combination Fraction and
other mine arrangements in the
early days and was superintendent
of the Daisy, in Diamondfield,
when Walter Geddes was manager
of that property. He was also con-
nected with a number of leases, be-
fore leaving for Tonopah about four
years ago.. Since then he has been
a frequent visitor in Goldfield and
was widely known here. He was
employed as foreman by n Of the
Ely copper companies.
He is survived by his wife, whom
he married in Goldfield about six
years ago.
Campbell came here from Colora-
do, where he was known by men
now in Goldfield 20 years ago, when
he was mining in the Cripple Creek
and Victor districts.

ID. Il. o., Butte, Mont.-Develop-
ment work continues in the Ke-
wanas property and has lately been
considerably enlarged in scope.
Manager Darcy is now conduct
ing some important development
work in the southern part of the
property, nea a point where lessees
produced some of the richest ore
ever found in the Kewanas prop
erty, at a depth of SO feet on the
incline of the vein below the $50
foot level. A drift is being driven
from this Wine and is showing
some good ore and it is probable
that the winze will be sunk another
SO feet to reach a level with the
shale's surface. Work continues
in the northern area, where there
seems to be every reason for con-
fidence in the quest for ore in the
faulted segment of the contact ore

Child Falls From Train

Alice Hefner, ~nine-year-old daugh-
ter of Mrs. Grace Bassett of Ogden,
was killed a few days G by fall
ing from a window of a fast-mov-
ing train near Hazen. The mother
retired for the night and the child
fell asleep in a seat. 1t is believed
the little girl awoke and fell from
the window when she leaned out
too far to peer into the darkness.
The mother did not miss the child
for a long time and when she did
the train was backed for several
miles into Hazen and from there
speeders were sent over the line.
The little girl was found beside the
track, unconscious, and was taken
to a Sparks hospital, where she
died without regaining conscious
ness.
