The mines in th» vicinity, of Ruck-! ley-Walker Lake district are being rapidly developed in a systematic j way. and while there is not excite- i meiit or lioom on, yet the eyes of j the mining world will soon lie turned j that way. says the Western Nevada Miner. There are five different prop erties now getting out shipping ore. and as soon as me railroad people put in the sidetrack at Buckley it will be a lively place, as then the different shippers will commence battling down their ore. The Bonanza mine, owned by the Margaret-Xevada Mining company a Seattle corporation which Panl’U'ick ley and Captain Xels Peterson pro moted, is still sacking ore, and ins recently let two contracts to go down 100 feet deeper in each shaft. They have recently uncovered a silver vein which promises to develop lnt > some thing remarkably good. The company is also sinking for water in Wild Horsq basin, briow the mire, and is now down 175 feet with its shaft, expecting to get bedrock and water at 200 feet The moment they are assured of a plentiful supply they will commence the erection of a stamp mill to treat their ores. They now have ever 1,000 tors of fine mill ing ore on the dump of Xo. I shaft, with enough ore in sight in their workings to keep a stamp mill busy ter two yeais.

Farrell Ore is Attracting Attention in Salt Like. On West Second South jjiivet is a large chunk of ore, which was brought to Salt Lake last week by Capt. O. A. Tibliots, says the Tribune. The ore came from the property at Farrell, Xev., of the Salt Lake and Xevada Exploration company, t lie group that \\ns acquired not long ago by the Salt Lakers composing this organization. Assays show the rock to average ir.flS.TO in gold to the ton, and is from tlip streaks that hover round both walls of the nine foot ledge. Word from the property yester day was in effect that during the first two days of sinking a shaft upon this ledge the management extracted and sacked $3000 worth of the ore. Tlie ore is a splendid quartz, and tlie ledge has every appearance of going down to fine depths. It is under-1 stood that the owners have com-! pleted arrangements for financing an organization to take over and operate the group, and that this new com pany will lie perfected in the near future. Captain Tibbets deems tlie proposition one of the most promis ing prospects that could lie desired. 1M.IMAS COUNTY. It. It.

Ploclie is now in a position to boast of a railroad, says the Ploclie Record. This week the rails were laid to the smelter site and there only remains such work as the laying of sidetracks and other details. Of course, it will require no little work to put the roadbed in a position fot traffic, but this is being completed as fast as possible. Only temporary cribbing was put in at the different bridge sites, iuU the pile driver is now nt work replacing these with permanent structures. When this is finished it will allow the use of a large locomitive, which is absolutely necessary before any amount ol transporting can be done. One must needs take a trip to the smelter to realize the immense amount of work that is being done by the railroad, which would indi cate that they anticipate a large amount of business in these parts. The ore from the Nevada-Utali properties will be hauled on the nar row gauge and dumped in the bins and then transferred to the standard gauge and to that end the Xevada Utah Company is having sidetracks and ore bins constructed which is CLASSIFIED ADS FOR RENT.

The advent of the railroad was ac cepted by the people of Ptoclie in a very quiet manner, but it is deter mined to celebrate the event in a proper way when the opportune time arrives. Holding the celebration in the spring of the year has many ad vantages, in that the appearance of the town is greatly enhanced at that season by the trees being in bloom, and also when a date set some cer tainty can be felt that weather con ditions will not interfere; and the further and more important reason, that the railroad company' will then be in a position to handle a great many visitors. In the meantime we can forge ahead and grow. Passenger and freight service will lie inaugurated immediately. Agent Montgomery will be removed from Panaca to this point and a box car used until a depot can lie construct ed. This will make it possible to get the large amount of freight con signed here delivered in short order, there being in the neighborhood of twenty cars in the yards of Caliente and Panaca.
