NINA, New, Aug. Although
the silver-lead belt Of the Simon
district has been occupying the
spotlight in this region for some
time, with the interest therein daily
increasing, the great eXpanse of
gold-bearing porphyry contiguous
thereto, extending. westerly for a
few miles but lying mainly in a
aortherly and northeasterly direc-
ton. is now claiming lively atten-
ton on the part of big mining men
and gives evidence that within the
near future it will rank very high
in the gold-producing activities Of
the state.
That the district has the goods"
is shown by the splendid results that
have been achieved during the past
three years by the Olympic Mining
company on its property which Is To-
Gated about four miles north of the
Simon silver-lead mine, and from
which a production of upward of
one million dollars has been made.
This was originally known as the
Siebert-Nelson property. former
Governor Tasker l.. Oddie also be-
ing interested with them. 1t was
incorporated as the Olympic Mining
company. with a number OF San
Francisco capitalists becoming iden-
titled with it. The present officers
and directors are: ID. r. G. Nc
Connell of San Francisco, president;
A. e. Scarbaro of San Francisco,
vice rresident; Fred ]. Siebert, gen.
eral manager: r. J. Bonnemort. as
sistant general manager; Andrew
Carrigan of San Francisco. addi-
tional director.
Besides its other extensive sur
face equipment. the property Is
equipped with 75-ton cyanide
plant. and quite a village of sub
stantial buildings has grown up.
with a postoffice known as Omco.
signifying Olympic Mining company.

FLO RE- N CE
COMPANY
STARTS
WORK
THREE MORE CARLOADS OF
ORE SHIPPED BY FLORENCE
DIVIDE

Three carloads of ore were
shipped his week from the Flor
ence Divide lease., on the Florence
Goldfield, the first since the high
grade shipment. The ore was sent
to the Western Ore Purchasing COM
pany's plant. Smeiter returns from
the high grade shipment have not
been received.
The Boesch lease is preparing to
ship two carloads. John Boesch,
owner of this lease, and Henry
Koocher have, taken a lease north
of the shaft and near the surface
and have started work. John
Ogilvie is preparing to ship another
carload from his lease north of the
shaft on the 40O7foot level.
The company has lost no time in
starting work. as Superintendent
Mccarthy states that driving of the
west crosscut from the shaft on the
seventh leyel is under way. This
will be extended well into the Com
bination No. claim of the Develop
ment company, where the footwall
of the vein will be explored.

NEVADA MINED 6,4R,579 TONS
OF ORE DURING YEAR 1918

month In January and February,
1919. The output of copper of the
Nevada Consolidated was reduced
from 100000 pounds a month in
I191S, to less than 100000 pounds
a month in 1919. The shipments
from the Yerington and Santa Fe
districts were also greatly reduced.
Lead and Zinc
The output of lead in Nevada de-
creased from 27,677,92S pounds in
|f917, to about 21.OO0,OO0 pounds in
|191S. AS the price of lead is re-
duced and the shipments from the
Yollowpine. district are smaller there
will probably be a decrease in the
total for 1919.
Heavy shipments continue from
the Prince Consolidated mine, at
Phoebe, in Lincoln county, and the
Virginia Louise has become a con-
siderable producer.
The output OF zinc decreased from
23,SO7,S6S pounds in 1917 to about
Is 100000 pounds in 1918. Most
|of the ore containing zinc comes
from the Yellowpine district, where
shipments of both lead ore and zinc
ore are only about half those of
1918. Zinc concentrates were stored
at the Yellowpine property and new
machinery was being placed in the
mill building. The Potosi mine.
near Arden, produced several thou
sand tons Of zinc ore in 1918, but
reduced its shipments about 60 per
Icent during the first six months of
1919. In 1917 the district produced,
aside from other metals, 9,29S,706
pounds of lead and 20.5S5,7
pounds of zinc. In 1918 these totals
were reduced to about 5,571 900
pounds OF lead and 1881. 900
pounds of zinc.
In the early part of 1919 divid-
ends from Nevada mines were de-
clared by the Nevada Consolidated,
Tonopah Belmont. Tonopah Exten-
sion. and West End companies.
The advance production figures
are based on gold at $20.67IS per
ounce, silver at 81 per ounce. cop
per at .247 per pound, lead at OIL

TONOPAH DIVIDE ISSUES REPORT

Iof the development work and esti-
mates of ore reserves and value;
and of the secretary and treasurer
as to the company's financial status.
From these reports it is to be noted
that many improvements have been
made, assets acquired and a large
ore reserve established which will
be of benefit in the future.
Report OF Consulting Engineer
July 4, 1910.
I beg to submit the following re-
port on the operation of your mine
for the period January 29th, 1918
(the date of the last reporD to July
1st, 1919:
The ore-bearing vein that is now
being developed on your property
has a northwest and southeast
strike and slight dip to the north
east C feet in 1907 and is being
developed by means of a vertical
shaft at a distance of approximately
14O feet northeast of the vein.
In the last report you were in
formed that this double compart-
ment shaft, Az by 7A feet, had
been sunk to "a depth of go feet.
since that time the shaft has been
sunk to a depth of $50 feet and sta
tions cut at the 265, $40, 475 and
5SO-ft. levels, and main crosscuts
driven ON these levels southwesterly
through the vein, from these main
crosscuts on each level drifts have
been driven northwest and south
east along the trend of the vein.
The last report informed you that
+ the main crosscut had been driven
through the vein on the 165-foot
level and drifts driven from this
crosscut fcs a distance of 25 feet to
the northwest and 35 feet to the
southeast. Since that time nothing
/ has been done on this level, ex-
cepting the driving of raise from
this level to surface. The vein is
shown to be 20 feet wide in the
main crosscut on this level and as-
say results after sampling has shown
the average value of the ore to be
$3.50 per ton across the width of

In an issue of the Tribune last
week there was published part OF
the report of A. l. Darcy. who re-
Gently. resigned as consulting engi-
neer for the Tonopah Divide.
The complete report follows:
Report OF the President.
Following are reports of the Off
GERS of the company covering the
period from the date of the last re-
port, January. 1918, to date OF July
/. 1919. Hereafter an annual re-
port will be rendered at the time OF
the stockholders meeting. the first
Wednesday in March, covering the
operations of the company for the
calendar year preceding.
The property of the company con-
sists of nine patented claims OF ap-
proximately 112 acres and four
claims of 38 acres now in the pro-
cess of being patented, making a
total of $50 acres.
Plans for the erection of milling
plant have been deferred until the
amount, value and character of the
ore is determined by the develop
ment work now being carried on,
and general conditions return to
normal basis. In the meantime the
ore being produced is hauled five
miles and treated in custom mill.
Naturally this results in high costs
and we are making no efforts to-
ward a large production. rather the
present policy is to ship only the ore
from development work and the
little in addition that is necessary
to nay the cost of developing the
property and to accumulate a small
surplus. Fortunately it has been
found the ore yields readily to cyan
ide treatment giving a high extrac-
tion.
Mr.. A. I. darcy, who has de-
veloped the property to its present
stage. has, owing to his personal in
terests. found 1t necessary to relin-
ouish the active management and
Mr.. E. A. Julian has been placed in
charge.
The following are reports OF the
consulting engineer. giving details

Athens Fair

While rational amusement is as es-
sential as our bread and butter the
day spent at the Athens Fair was not
misspent The preparation for a
large show and gathering of people
was surely evident both in the field
and hall. The arrangement OF aru-
Giles in the hall were matter OF
praise and the entire effort OF the
good people of Athens should have a
vote of thanks. But when the men
gathered round the loaded drag at
the hauling test of strength, the
horses did their best. They did
what they could but the men crowd
ed and abused the teamster with no
respect 10 manhood or themselves.
But just al this time near by the best
thing OF the day started up. The fife
and drums, the best of music. and
called away that disrespeetful sell
fish crowd so We could see and then
We had some fine hauling and could
see il. There is nothing more gen
tlemanly at a hauling match or more
important than large ring.
