 a Tons of Ore
 Upwards of 25 tons of high grade ore Is now sacked in the Little Annie shaft. Wiley said. It cannot be moved until spring as the country is covered with 12 feet of snow. Tunnels are being driven below the cliff in an effort to pick up' the rich veins.
 The mine was discovered in 1871. It was worked until 1898 when 1t was abandoned. The Wiley group leased 1t last July. Only three men were employed to work it. Another mine of the Annie" group is located near Silverton. San Juan basin town which has been marooned for a month by snow slides.
 site, which only those expert in the use of snow shoes can reach. Wee pah continued to draw scores of .prospectors who came in flivvers 10 shiver through long nights in tents because fuel Is scarce. Both camps are alike in that they are located in treeless wastes. A Desolate Locality Fortune seekers choosing to spend the nights at Weepah in- stead of the base at Tonopah. found only sage brush to burn in the camp stoves. as few trees grow in the desert country of the Silver Peak range.
 While the Weepah discovery brought an influx resembling the carly day "rushes," there apparently was little possibility of such condition at Delnorte, or Summit vile. where the Little Annie group of mines centers. The group is owned by T. \. Barnsdale and the A. l.. Reynolds Morse corporation while virtually every claim in the district is patented. The ground has been thoroughly prospectel and treasure seekers would depend mostly on luck. old miners say.
 Original Strike in 1881
 The original strike at summi's- vile was made within soc feet of the present find. Activity generally slowed in 1884 when the high cost Of treating low grade ore, found after the rich 1odes were exhaust ed, wiped out the profits. The camp was re-opened again in 1897. but closed q year later due 10 prohibi tive cost of operations.
 Frank Horton, on whose claim his son and a companion found the ore that started the Weepah rush. has withheld plans for develop mcnt. The youths have refused s1n,000 for their claims. but the elder Horton. an experienced miner is generally non-commital.

 "One day Leonard and l noticed some good looking rock just at tn: edge of an old badger hole. I re- membered my father saying that several Of Nevada's biggest gold strikes had been made by a badger.
 T guess that's what happened when we made this strike. We banned the rock around the bad ger hole and got some nice strings of gold.
 "We kept on digging and the ore started to get better and better. It was pretty good looking stuff. But 1t was not until we had dug sev. eral feet that we made the real strike.
