OR. R. \. RICHARDSON
SUPT. STATE ASYLUM

DIR. r. II. Richardson has received
the appointment as superintendent of
the state insane asylum at Reno
The honor was conferred without So
licitation on his part and In fact the
local physician was perhaps more
surprised than any of his friends.
The selection for this important
position was made by the state asy-
lum board, consisting of Governor
Emmett Boyle. State Treasurer NAL
ley and State Controller Cole. The
position was made vacant by the res
ignation of Doctor Sullivan.
Doctor Richardson expects to leave
this morning to assume the duties of
the office.
Although pleased with the compli-
ment extended and the opportunities
offered, 1t is with regret that Doctor
Richardson leaves Ely. He has re-
sided mere many years and has large
property holdings in the district. hav-
ing been one of the men who erected
the Richmar rooming house. one of
first large buildings In Ely. lie
is acquainted with the citizens of the
county from one end to the other end
few men have a larger circle of
friends than he. BY his departure
several public positions become va
cant, including those of County
Board of Health and Board of Edu-
cation.
The best wishes of the citizens OF
Ely and White Pine county follow
low him In his new field of endeavor.

SOLDIERS AND SAILORS
SCORE SOCIAL SUCCESS

The Soldiers and Sailors of Ely
went over the top last night In their
big drive for social prestige. The
occasion was the grand military hall
and the scene of success was Bio
ball. The attendance was large and
nothing was censored In the way of
thoroughly good time. The SOL
diers and Sailors proved their Prov
ess as hosts and the ball goes into
the history of local events as a most
enjoyable event.
The decorations were naturally of
a patriotic nature. the red. white and
blue OF the Stars and Stripes. These
colors predominated and the scheme
was carried out even to the pro-
grammes. Suspended above the
dancing floor was an airship poised
for flight. Goumond's jazz orches-
ira set the pace that kept the sea of
dancers surging to the breeze of mel
ody. There was pep to the people.
pep to the punch and pop to the pret-
ty partners circling gracefully in the

SECOND TRIAL ON SECOND-DE-
GREE CHARGE OF KILLING
FRANK NORRIS RESULTS IN
QUICK VERDICT OF AcQCITTAL

In the trial of Arthur Newell last
Friday, in the district court on a
charge of murder in the second de-
gree, the jury after a few hours of
deliberation returned verdict of not
guilty.
Arthur Newell was accused OF the
killing of Frank Morris in a saloon
at Riepetown last January and was
brought to trial in the February scs-
sion of the court, but the jury could
not agree after being our for nearly
twenty hours.
At the trial Friday the evidence of
the state was shattered by the dra-
matte appeal of Attorney g. F. Bore.

argument before the jury when he
attacked the credibility of the wit
nesses for the prosecution and plead
the cause Of his client as an act COM
mitted In self defense.
The jury retired about FIVE o'clock
In the afternoon and returned a YER
dict of not guilty about $3.50 p. m.
Az this case was the only criminal
case on the calendar, the jury was
excused until notified by the court.

COALITION CO. BEGINS
WORK At SPRING VALLEY

Work has been started by the
American Standard Coalition Mines
company. at the Bews property in
Spring Valley. Immediately north Of
the Siegel mine where the company
has several mining claims. Mr.
LorIn Hall of Salt Lake City who IL
in charge of the work, said yesterday
that a contract had been let to drive
a tunnel some 200 feet to a point
where II is expected to strike a
strong contact fissure. that on the
surface shows exceptionally rich.
Supplies are all on the ground and
the men are at work. Some assays
recently run show ore running as
high as so ounces In silver. and the
mineralized zone is quite extensive
and has been opened for some dis
tance by open trenches and cuts on
the surface.
The tunnel being driven will give
about $50 feet of depth on the vein,
and It Is expected to have 1t finished
within so DAYS.
The company has its Office at
Ogden. Utah, and 1t is understood
that Willard Scowcroft and John W.
scowcroft are heavily interested.

has been opened for length OF 400
feet, varying In width from to 40

i4,e4i tons OF ore that averaged az

Ing about s per cent copper. Three

has cut some good ore. whose limits
have not yet been determined. The
Alpha mine has responded TO devel-
opment remarkably well and there is
every encouragement to push dcvel-
opment and especially to open up the
mine to deeper levels. The shaft has
been sunk TO a depth OF 1440 feet:
a station has been cut on the 1900
foot level and a erosseut is being
driven to cut and open the ore bodies
on this level The company intends
TO sink the Alpha shaft to lower
levels al once.
Wide masses of limonitic material,
thoroughly leached, are met with ev-
erywhere in the zone of alteration In
the Alpha mine. These limonitic
masses invariably contain at least a
trace and usually a fraction OF per
cent of copper The natural conclu-
sion Is that these large limonite
bodies were originally copper iron
sulphide, which have been leachec.
leaving the limonite as residual iron
oxide, and are indicators of large
bodies OF enriched copper sulphtde
ore at greater depth In the vicinity OF
the original water level. The pure
copper oxide found In the 1900 level
indicates that the oxidizing process
has been very extensive and that the
oxidizing solutions have penetrated
to great depth. AS the process of So
luton and oxidation are supplement-
ary to each other and the oxidized
zone In tho Alpha is 80 extensive.
there is every reason to believe that
within the next few hundred feet In
depth will be found the concentrated
ores which have been leached from
the immense zone OF original sui
OXIDES which occurred In the vicinity
of the Alpha workings. The very large
bodies of limonite found in the Alpha
have great significance. Limonite Is
a hydrous iron oxide which results
from the oxidation OF other ores or
minerals containing iron. The Alpha
ore bodies occur in zone of intense
teaching and oxidation. All sulphide
cres break up under weathering con-
ditions, so that the iron is left as
residual product, and the soluable
copper is carried by the liberated sui
rhate solutions to the vicinity OF
water level. where oxygen is excluded,
and deposited as copper sulphide.
Some of the copper is deposited as

The NC-1, under Lieutenant Com

course somewhere between station

Fog evidently caused Commander

toe hotel of East Ely during the
past week.
The party spent several days in
specting mining properties as well
as underground workings of the
Alpha mine of Coppermines company.
with which all were greatly pleased.
Mr.. Merritt says results OF oper-
atoms during the past year are high
y gratifying; the whole condition OF
the mines and properties of the CON-
pany look great deal better than
ever before. The Alpha mine Is look
ing especially encouraging. Devei-
opments during the past year have
disclosed some very valuable bodies
OF high grade direct smelling oro.
and the future prospects of the mine
are exceedingly bright The Alpha
nine has produced. since operations
we're resumed. early In the fall OF
1917. a total of s2.570 tons Of ore
that averaged 7.67 per cent copper.
Based on faces OF ore now exposed
and experience In mining these do
posits Mr.. Merritt estimates that the
ore bodies now exposed will yield at
least 200, 900 tons of ore Of similar
Grade above the 1300-foot Level.
development work, however, indf-
Gates, In his opinion. that much
larger ore bodies viii be found as
development progresses. Valuable
bodies of direct smelling ore, extend
Ing from about the 500 level down
to the 1900 level are now developed,
In q productive zone. about $50 feet
maximum length. and there Is no
evidence that the limits OF ore oc-
eurrence have been az yet reached.
The ore bodies occur In altered lime
stone near a limestone porphyry con-
anct. very similar to the great bodies
OF high grade ore Of the .Bisbee. Ari-
iona, district. Several thousand feet
OF this limestone-porphyry contact
lie within the Coppermines company's
properties. and there is very good
reason to believe that extensive de-
posits OF high grade ores, similar TO
the Alpha, will be opened as explora-
ton Is extended along this contact.
Development on the 1900 level has
not progressed far enough TO aford
much definite information beyond
demonstrating that the oxidized
ore extends to this depth with un-
diminished grade. Several faces OF
ore have been cut on the 1900 level,
varying In grade from per cent to
~ per cent copper. On the 1900
level, which has explored the ore
