Russell roses and tulle carrying out

placed at intervals. on either side of
the long white carpeted aisle. down
which the bridal party passed. Miss

organ and rendered beautiful pro-
gram of wedding music during the
interval of waiting for the coming
of the bridal party. Lohengrin' 9
bridal chorus was used for the pro-
cessional. and Mendelssohn' we'd
ding march for the recessional. The
lovely young bride was given in
marriage by her father, and never
prettier than at this sacred hour, in
a shimmering gown of silver cloth
with trimmings of rare old lace. A
court train fell from her shoulders
and the full length veil of illusion
was fastened to her dark han in cap
effect. NShe wore an exquisite dia-
mond pin. gift of the groom, and
her flowers were orchids and valley
lilies, arranged in shower effect.
Miss Sykes chose for her maids OF

something big In a mining way Was
developing at the property. but moth
ing. definite was given out regarding
the find. No one really doubted thai
q discovery had been made. but all
were content to await official an
n0uncement concerning the discovery.
Much speculation has been INDUCED
in during the past two weeks concern
ing operations in both the Tonopah
Divide and Brougher Divide mines.
In exploring the lower levels a race
la prosecuting resulted, as both com
panies were supposed to have about
the same distance TO drive to reach
the MERGED vein. While the Brougher
Divide crosscut has been passing
large stringers of ore for the last sew
eral days, an ore body four feet wide
| is reported as having been encoun-
tered that shows values Of SIS ton

neatly desired has not been reached
or at least no official report has been
made concerning any discovery re-
sulting.
Deep Mining IN Order.
| Deep mining is going to play an
important part in the Divide district.
Following the cutting of the station
at the 475-foot level, sinking was
again started, the management being
confident that the continuity OF the
shoot will again be proven. The shaft
has now reached depth of 60 feet be-
low that point, and when the 575-level
has been reached prosecuting VIII
again be undertaken. In the mean
time stopping will be started with a
view Of increasing the output from
this now famous producer
The future of the Divide mining
district is assured. There has been
lintimation of finds having been made
on several properties, but nothing
definite has yet been given to the
press for publication.

THE oLD-TIME PRosPEcToR.
Still Finds Mines in Violation OF the
Orthodox Theories.

The old-style type of prospector
yielded results, partly due to the
fact that there were so many OF him.
Watch the scout patrols of some col
ony of ants, and you will observe
many of them wandering around as
IL demented. But as soon as one
makes a strike, the news spreads
rapidly and traffic is organized along
certain routes, while vague and ran
dom prospecting still continues In the
vicinity of the famous mines OF
sugar, rice or whatever chances to De
the temporary boom. Frequently the
ant gets results simply because in
stinct governs, rather than orthodox
theories as to the genesis of sugar
deposits. The adherence to orthodox
beliefs limits the field of the scienti-
fic prospector, says the Engineering
and Mining Journal A belief In the
persistence of orthodoxy may even
prove disastrous, as shown by an Ole
yarn published in Galaxy OF April
I1S72. Two prospectors in the Reese
river country, in Nevada, had JUS
bought ham. regardless of higf
prices. They boiled it and ate spar
ingly, it being doubtful if more couit
be purchased When Jewish neigh

FORMER coEuR D,ALENER MAIN
OWNER IN THE NEW
BONANZA.

Old sinners in1Wardner and wallace
will recall "Car' Brougher, who was
more conspicuous in sporting circles
in those wide open days than he was
in mining operations. After leaving
the Occur d,Alenes he was next heard
from in Nevada and was there during
the boom days of Tonopah and Gold
field, in both Of which places he Sc
cured interests in mines which nave
become famous and which made him
immensely rich. And now Brougher Is
in on another big strike, the Tonopah
Divide, near Tonopah. which Is de-
scribed in the following article from
the Denver Mining Record:
Wonderful Body Of Ore.
wonders continue in the Divide DIS
trict formerly known as the Gold
Mountain district lying between Ton
opah and Goldfeld. Once again 1t
has been demonstrated that the Tono-
nah Divide mine is destined to become
one of the greatest producers In the
history of Nevada, and those interest
ed in mining in Tonopuah and Gold
field are jubilant over the official an
nouncement made by Fl. c. Brougher,
that the MERGED vein on the 475-foot
level had been penetrated and that
wonderful body of ore had been I'M
covered.
The ore body Is wonderful by reason
offthe fact that prosecuting has dem
onstrated that there is 20 feet OF ex-
cellent grade ore, and the further fact
that there Is no evidence at hand thai
the opposite wall Is anywhere near; II
Is even more wonderful because of the
fact that the ore shoot has been prov
en- persistent at an increased depth o.
100 feet over the workings above
whence tremendous production II
now, being made. the product belnl
treated at the MacNamara mill II
Tonopah.
Reports that were in circulation Il
Tonopah that the ore was of unusual
" high grade, averaging around W
ton. according to Mr.. Brougher, tn
values are not as high as this, but
/, true that the values are such as
warrant handsome earning resultin
fo, the treasury of the Tonopah ID
vide Mining company.
Hiah Grade Ore Expected.
I'VE do not expect the high grad
ore until we have driven a consider
able distance farther" remarked M
Brougher. "Our richest ore was foun
on the first level but in the WORKING
below we have always found a hie
grade product, and when the drift M
been extended the required distan'
we anticipate the usual high valu
will be contained"
Official Announcement Awaited.
The news that the Tonopah Divi'
mine had penetrated the ledge as e
posed on the 475-foot level spre'
Hike wildfire throughout the Tonop'
district and the eastern and weste
markets were naturally informed
the situation. For several days t
rumor has been in circulation tn
