THE BOOM AT ToNOPAH

Special to The Times.
Tonopah is the livliest and busies st
town in the state to-day. There is no
doubt about it, Tonopah is enjoying
a real boom and many think it has lust
begun.
Brokers' Offices look like bee hives,
with the bees swarmirg. The swing
ing doors of the Mizpah Hotel are
never still and the management is OBJ
liged to turn people away for the lack
of rooms.

open only from $50 until noon,
when it is obliged to close in order to
catch up with its work

sensation of the age The ore is rich
er on the second and third levels than
on the first and wonderful future is
predicted for this property and the
Divide district, which is situated on
the Divide between Tonopah and
Goldfield.
The ground around the Tonapah
Divide Mine is located for ten miles
and town is to be built at Divide
Every day, from Goldfield, where it
is now very quiet, houses are being
moved to Tonopah or the Divide
district
In the lobby OF the Mizpah Hotel
messenger boys and girls rush to and
fro, and men, in knots of two, are seen
standing together and mysteriously
whispering while they pore over a
map of the Divide district. A few
moments later, they move to a corner
where one man writes check WHICH
passes to the other and for which he
is given merely receipt. for the
stock which he has, just bought is not
yet listed and its certificates have yet
to be printed.
Business at Tonopah is booming
and it is difficult to gel room
anywhere.
Mining men are surely meeting
their friends here and groups stand III

Monday the interest was intensified
by the arrival OF George Wingfield
