VALUES STRUCK
IN DIVIDE EXTENSION

Divide Extension sprang the great
est sensation yesterday of recent
weeks when it became known that a
wonderfully large and rich body OF
silver ore had been encountered on
the 200-foot level. according to the
Tonopah Times.
While official reports were not
forthcoming, it became known that
the ore vein has a width of thirty-four
inches, sixteen inches of which car
ries silver values of $3.50 a ton and
eighteen inches being worth $500 a
ton.
The enrichment of this great ore
body is self-evident, according to we'll
informed mining men who have had
the privilege of examining the work
ings. That the shoot will be found
persistent to great depth is generally
conceded, and a feeling of optismism
prevails throughout tie Divide and
Tonopah districts regarding the
future of not only the Divide Exten-
sion. but numerous other properties
as well.
The ore, which was encountered
in extending the crosscut to pick up
the ore shoot that was exposed on the
.ifty-foot level, and which extends
downward for a known depth of fifty
feet through the Caldwell shaft work
ings, is greenish in color. Assays
that were had, according to well con-
firmed reports, show the shoot to be
one of the richest and largest that
has been uncovered in the Divide dis
trict in months. 1t will result in mine
development in that immediate local
ity being greatly augmented. with
the natural result that the people
can look forward to important dis
coveries being made in the near flu
ture with great frequency.
AS a result of the mineral find that
was made on the Divide Extension,
the price of shares went aeroplaning
on the San Francisco mining ex-
change. With the first sale that a
made on Tuesday the stock only COM
manded ffty-five cents, but when the
session was concluded yesterday, with
a recess being taken for the holidays.
the price had jumped to S1.25.
There had been rumors in the air
for two days that something unusual
had taken place at the Divide Elk
tension, and when the truth dawned
upon the public that the mine was
no longer to be considered a pros
pect, but was to be ranked shortly
with the Tonopah Divide. the pessi-
mist was awakened from his lethargy.
In truth he must now realize that the
revived boom for the Divide district
is in the a~scendancy and that early
the coming year the big noise will be
heard resounding throughout the
length and bredth of this land.

sheriff thinks to search.
Drake encounters Mercedes Syl-
vester, who has been imprisoned by
the rascally sheriff on a trumped-up
charge Of smuggling, and straightway
falls in love with the dainty captive.
His sole ambition from that moment
is to release the girl and prevent the
sheriff and his henchmen from steal

her brother were forced to
conceal in their old home down in
Mexico, to prevent the insurrection-
lists from taking it. In the midst of

THE STORY

Filled with desire to get out into
the world and do something, young
Mr.. Teddy Drake, a typical New
Yorker, goes into the West and pres
emily the opportunity offers itself on
the train running into Sonora, Mexico.
Teddy encounters Manuel Lopez, lead
er Of an outlaw band, who is being
pursued by the sheriff of the county.
Drake changes clothes with the ban
dit, enabling him to elude his pur-
suers, and Drake himself leads the
enforcers of the law and order a mer-
~ chase, until he is finally rounded
up in the town of Sonora, where he
takes refuge on the roof of the coun-

support are set forth in a letter sent

THE trend Of the times is TO give
the producer a greater share Of that
which he produces. This applies TO
the farmer as we'll as to the me

effort is put forth TO reduce the cost
OF living to the consumer. Between
producer and consumer lies the dis
