matter to the attention of Presi
dent Wilson and congress. Secre
tary McAdoo recently said, ‘At no
time has this country so much re
quired the largest production of
gold as at present. Next to food
and ammunition, gold is one of the
most needed war essentials. The I
man or the community that main
tains or increases the production of
gold in the face of difficulties and
discouragements is performing a pa
triotic service no less than the more
obvious, but not less useful, servic
es that are more in the public eye.’
“The production of gold must be j
stimulated to avert a serious short
age. and sooner or later gold min
ing companies will be encouraged
to increase their output, and it is
believed that congress will very
shortly take steps which will be
greatly to the advantage of gold
mining companies, to encourage
production of the yellow metal and I
reward the producer.
"Pioneer Consolidated Mines com
pany stockholders are in a position
at this time to become interested in
a live and going concern by the
payment of very little money in the
form of exchange bonus, by having
their shares exchanged for shares t
of this company, and acquiring
shares in an assessable company.
We believe this to be the fairest
plan of financing, the whole scheme
being on the co-operative plan
where each shareholder pays his
prorata of expenses in the develop
ment of the property, and in doing
this he is certainly doing a patriotic '
duty in paying his share toward the
development of a most promising
gold property with every chance of
making a paying and profitable
mine and increase the value of his
holdings and doing his part toward
increasing the production of gold
bullion.
Many requests have been re
ceived from parties who know the
Pioneer mine, wishing to purchase
treasury shares, should there he
any for sale, but in each instance j
this company has advised that no
treasury shares were for sale at this
time and that the only way that
shares of this company could be ac
quired at the present time would
be through the exchange of Pioneer
Consolidated Mines company shares,
together with the exchange bonus
of lc per share.
"Before anything is d'uo in the
way of offering treasury stock to
the public, the officers of this com
pany desire to give stockholders of
Pioneer Consolidated Mines com
pany every opportunity to exchange
their shares and after the time limit
of exchange expires the matter of
offering treasury shares will be
taken under consideration by the
directors.”
The letter is signed by W. J. To
bin, president of the Reorganized
Pioneer Mines company, and Ben
Gill, secretary.

These claims are of interest be

In a drift running parallel to

the original discovery was made the

ganese ore of good grade, with
seams of almost solid metal in plac

GERMANS ARE
“DECENT”
RESENT “UNKIND • ASPERSION
ON GERMANS” BY BURN*
ING HOUSE
DUBLIN, Aug. 22. — A remark
able story illustrating pro-German
sentiment in Ireland was told at the
Cavan assizes.
Sergeant O’Reilly of the royal
Dublin fusiliers had fought at
Marne, where he was made a pris
oner by the Germans.
After three years as a prisoner of
war he was returned to Ireland and
states that Irish prisoners who could
not be induced by Sir Roger Case
ment to accept the German offers
had their rations cut down and were
subjected to torture.
This interview, as was given in
evidence, caused local hostility
against the sergeant, because it was
an “unkind aspersion on the Ger
mans,” whom the Irish neighbors of
O’Reilly described as “decent peo
ple.”
The indignation resulted in the
burning of the sergeant’s dwelling
house and furniture and the case
came before the court to assess dam
ages for malicious injury.
Judge Gibson awarded 60 pounds,
remarking: “The burning was a
cowardly and treacherous act, and
it makes me sick to think that per
sons calling themselves Irishmen
would be guilty of it.”

‘QUIET SECTORS'

RELATIVELY SMALL THINGS
LOOK BIG TO NEW
MEN
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
IN LORRAINE, Aug. 22.—“A quiet
sector,” said an officer of an Amer
ican division holding a position so
designated, “appears to be a part
of the front where nothing but
scouting, patrolling, shelling and
gassing are going on, with a little
bombing and flame throwing to vary
the monotony.”
in a quiet sector tne American
soldier gets his first experience of
war. “Some of the relatively small
things in this war look so big to
the new man that he is inclined to
take them for bigger ones, said an
American general, “and it is import
ant for both the new soldier and the
young officer to get familiar with
the little frightfulnesses the Ger
mans send over so as to get the
proper proportion between them and
real attacks.”
Patrols are large contributors to
the war diary of the division in this
sector and the American soldier is
particularly apt at it. It is no se
cret for the Germans that he is al
ways at it and that • he is venture
some enough to push into their lines
and into the villages back of them.
The Germans find their wire cut
in most unexpected places, even live
wire in some cases. A patrol caught
at this dangerous work found itself
in the range of machine guns and
had to roll back under the wire and
across No Man’s Land with bullets
whistling over their heads.
Another patrol, pushing into a
German commanding post and find
ing it vacant, dragged an officer’s
trunk back over the shell holes to
their own trenches.

George Pierson and John Mclntee

engaged in extracting old pillars
and have shipped good ore in the

ing them so as to be able to mine
the pillars.
Lessees on the Florence operate
on a 25 per cent royalty basis, with
no limit placed on the amount or

STRANGE DISEASE
ATTACKS U. $.
SAILORS
PECULIAR EUROPEAN DISEASE
HAS NOW' ALMOST DIS
APPEARDE
_ |
AN IRISH PORtTauk. 21. — The
theory that the strange epidemic of I
a similar type as influenza which
has swept Europe attacked only
those who were “run down” because
of lack of proper food, was exploded
when the disease threatened to take
hold among officers and men of this
American destroyer base.
Aside from American soldiers, the
American sailors • are probably the
best fed persons in Europe, but the
disease attacked several score of
them here and for a week or so dis
rupted crew assignments. It has
virtually disappeared now.
The disease is not dangerous if
taken in hand quickly enough, and it
has left no ill effects at the destroy
er base.
It has the peculiarity, however,
of weakening the victim in a few
days as much as the average illness,
will in twice the time and conse
quently it required several days for
recuperation.
Victims suffer differently when
the disease first begins. Some sud
denly become dizzy and even faint.
The most prevalent symptoms, how
ever, are first a cough, then terrific
pains in the back, followed by fever
and a chill now and then.
Physicians say it is dangerous to
attempt to continue activities, as
pneumonia may develop and they
prescribe bed for four to seven days,
with ordinary remedies for combat
ting fever.
TONOPAH DEVELOPMENTS !
< Continuro *Tom Page One)
is indicated by the exceptional de
velopment that is taking place in the
Ohio territory. The discovery on
the 500-foot level, which was made
some months ago, has gradually in
creased in size and importance each
week until now it promises not only
to produce a tremendous tonnage
from this level, but that these same
orebodies will be developed at much
greater depth. The most substan
tial proof of this fact is the open
ing of the ore channel on the 800
level, which is the downward exten
sion of the bonanza vein on the 500
level.
The West End mill is treating
about 4000 tons per month of the
company’s ores in addition to the
ores of a number of small mines in
the camp.
Jim Butler
The official figures for the Jim
Butler show that tfc.e company made
a net profit of $30,622.30, which
resulted from 1810 tons of ore pro
duced by the mine and treated at
the Belmont mill. The net earnings
for July were slightly more than for
the month of June, which aws $29,
828.87.
Mining operations at the Jim
Butler have been carried forward
on the same scale and under the
same conditions as has been re
ported for previous weeks, without
any change of consequence having
occurred. The stoped produced the
regular amount of ore for the West
End mill, which is around 350 tons
per week, and the customary gain
in footage was maintained in the
various raises and cross-cuts. No
development was prosecuted during
the week at the Desert Queen sec
tion of the mine.
North Star
Aside from the fact that the
general mining conditions continue
to be very.encouraging, there have
been no further sensational devel
opments on the bunch of high-grade
ore that was encountered last week
in a drift on the 900 level.
A full carload of ore of very good
grade was extracted from the dis
covery, and during the past week
further quantities of ore were pro
duced. The management started a
raise from the 900, but nothing of
an extraordinary nature has as yet
been developed. The indicatjpns in
the raise are favorable for the de
velopment of other bodies of ore,
but inasmuch as the workings are
near a fault the ore occurs in
bunches, and it will probably not be
known until the raise has reached
the upper levels what the possibili
ties arp for proving up the discov
ery. •
