WILD SCRAMBLE FOR
NEVADA SILVER

The scramble for silver prop
critics in Nevada is assuming pro-
portions that are somewhat RI
diculous in the opinion OF the
owner of developed property or
the estimate of an operator who
has expended capital in bringing
a prospect to the producing state.
Frantic kilograms from New
York and other eastern cities,
directing agents to purchase sill
yer mines outright, or to take over
prospects without payment OF
any consideration, are coming to
hand every hour, indicating that
New York operators are appre-
ciative OF the opportunities Tor
speculation now afforded by the
silver properties. Conditions III
Nevada, however, are in such
shape that most of the owners
of good prospects can tind capt
tai for development without a
great deal of trouble. AS for real
silver mines. there is no record
of any for sale at any price.
Some Of the scouts who have re-
turned to San Francisco during
the past few days predict that
some extravagant prices will be
paid this winter for properties
which might have been purchased
for song less than year ago.

WHAT A WHALE
1T MUST BE

One hundred million dollars is
the price which the Mining Cor
poraton of Canada is said to be
paying for the Pioneer mine in
British Columbia. This corpora
ton is the largest silver producer
in the British empire. The prop
erty it is purchasing is on the
Cadwallader creek, Lillooet min
ing district, and near the line OF
the Pacific Great Eastern Rail-
road.
w. r. F. Parker, VICE president
Of the Mining Corporation OF
Canada, announced the purchase
last week in Vancouver. He says
developments on much larger
scale than before will be under
taken by the new owners. This
is expected to greatly increase
the output.
Adolphus Williams and the two
Ferguson brothers have owned
the mine during the past three
years, and they receive the $780,
100000, which it is said is paid
in cash. They took out consid-
cradle gold during their owner
ship.--Spokesman Review.

ANOTHER VICTIM
FOR LAKE TAHOE

Capt. E. II. Pomin. skipper OF
the steamer Tahoe on Lake Tahoe
for the past twentyfour years, was
found drowned in the cold waters
Of the lake near a pier at Tahoe
City Monday morning by his
wife. twas thought that he was
walking on the pier when the ice
and snow caused him 10 slip into
the water and drown. No one
was near at the time and when he
did not appear for lunch, his wife
went in search of him and found
the body floating in the clear wa
ter near the steamer pier.
The captainj was one of the
most familiar figures around the
lake where he had spent the last
forty-five years of his life. He
had been captain Of the steamer
Tahoe since it was placed on the
lake twenty-four years ago and
had made the trip around the lake
every day of the tourist season
and twice a week in winter. He
was considered all authority upon
the lake and knew it's whims and
temper better than any man in
the region.
He was seventy years old and
leaves wife and five children.
An effort will be made to clear
the snow between Tahoe City and
Truckee so that the body can be
taken to the Coast for burial.
