Price, who has made Gold field his home for tho past three years and who has mined in different camps throughout the country for 25 years, returned from Rawhide yes terday, according to the- Goldfield Tribune. “I gave the camp a pretty thor ough inspection,” ho said. “There is an immense surface showing there. It is a mistaken idea that the veins are small The dykes are from 7 to 00 feel wide. The stuff that shows free gold in abundance, comes in where small veins intersect th ■ big dykes. The formation is-porphyry, andesite and rhyolite. There are 1,200 people in the town and the number is being added to at the rate of 50 a day.

"A great deal of high grad' comes from Grutt mountain, which is only 200 yard- from Main street. There is i cat glomerate quartz ledge from 8 to 0 feet in width that can lie trace ! lor a mile. It runs northeast and southwest and in places stands nil for 1 0 feet. One standing a short distance away can actually see the gold glisten in the sunlight.” All shipments of ore are made by way of Scliurz by express. Mr. Price says the easiest way to reach Raw hide is to go from Goldfield to Mina at a cost of $5.80, and then from Mina to Rawhide by auto for $15, or by stage for $10. “W. R. Nichols with H. II. Dorsey and Mr. Work bought a group,” con tinued Mr. Price, “and they have the ground all leased out. All the leases are in ore and one payment has al ready' been made on the property. The specimens taken front this group are very fine. Accommodations at Rawhide are very fair. Ileds cost $1 a night and oneA:an get good meals for 50 cents each. There are plenty of ducks, and you can get a good ‘bird dinner' for a dollar. The altitude is 4,500 feet and the camp is in Churchill county. Of course Rawhide has no postoflicc as yet, neither has it an express office, but a mail service is expected to be Installed within a few days. The produce is so cheap in camp, because Rawhide is lint five miles from the Carson sink, where 1 he ranches are located. Rawhide has 20 saloons and 12 restaurants and they are kept busy. Potatoes are 3 cents a pound, eggs 50 cents a dozen, wood $30 a cord, water $2.50 a barrel and lumber $70 a thousand, although lumber may be reduced to $35 soon, by coming in via Fallon. Reese river hay is $5 a ton, hut has to be hauled 50 miles.” Mr. Price declares that Rawhide has the greatest surface showing of any place he has ever visited or heard of. Of course the place at this stateg is only a shark town, a mile long and a quarter of a mile wide, lmt it has a good, natural location. At the Lly Calumet 15 men are at work. They will lie continued for some time and may be kept going permanently. ARE YOU GOING TO CAMP OUT THIS WINTER If not, better build a house, and buy your lumber from us. We have it. “The Big Yard.” ELY LUMBER 4 COAL CO. H. W.

J. KIESEL CO., Ogden, Utah, Distributors \ I Bamberger Interests Feel Confident About Prop erty. GOLD CIRCLE STRIKE _ Another Good One is Reported From That Camp-Said to Be as Good as the Original Find. That the Bamberger Interests have a coming property of great merit in the Fortnna group in Nevada, is the opinion of E. A. Vale, the consult ing engineer for these Salt Lake cap italists, says the Salt Lake Tribune. Mr. Vale is just back from the prop erty, the same being located 14 miles north of Pioche, and in the vicinity of Ihe Ida May, the Bristol and such well known producers. On the For tuna group of seven claims are two great, lodes so far discovered, the Fortnna carrying lead ore, and the Volcano, with its copper values. Mr. Vale states that at a vertical depth of 100 feet, and by drifting, the management has encountered two feet of very heavy lead values on the former lode. On the copper vein re sults are being secured to the satis faction of the company. It is the plan to drive a deep tunnel to cut both these portions of the group at a good depth, and Mr. Vale Is certain this will result favorably. lie states that the railroad line has been a great help to Pioche, and that business now is being regularly conducted by the railroad company. The Prince, the Ohio Kentucky, (lie Boston Pioche and several other mines are pushing active develop ment work ahead with splendid re sults, presenting quite a prepossess ing appearance to one who visits this section. ANOTHER BONANZA STRIKE Ore Is Said to Re As Rieli As That of the .Original .Strike .Made By Hnnil*erger . Wliieli Caused Gold Circle Stampede Pavties who have arrived in Gol cornla from Golden Circle stated that the strike recently made on claims owned by Storey and Nelson, about four miles east front the main camp, is proving lo lie very rich. They have opened up a large ledge, the pay streak being equally as rich as the ore taken from the Bamberger claims, which caused the stampede to the camp. The ore Is somewhat different in character from the rich ore heretofore brought In from Gold Circle, but there Is little differ ence as to the values as l\je rock is fairly laced with wire gold. The ore is a porphyry quartz somewhat softer than that from the Bamberger claims and some of the specimens are very beautiful. It. Bamberger has started another shaft a short distance north of the place where he took out the phe nomenally rich ore that made the camp famous. He is sinking on the ledge and has the same pay streak that he had in the pit where he did his location work. The ore is just as rich and nas every Indication of going down to depth. The ore is being sacked as taken from the shaft and not thrown on the dump to lie high-graded. It is stated that over $5,000 worth of samples were taken away by prospectors who visited this property during the absence of the owner. Not only was the ore taken from the dump hut Blasts wore p-t into the ledge and the rich stuff taken away by the sack-full. GOOD RESULTS AT llLACKHORSE Oliann Property Producing Ore With Hotter Than $100 Values— Lenses Are Given According to information received by manager A. G. Burritt, ore con taining values of better than $100 a ton has been encountered in the shaft now going down in the Ohana property in the Blackhorse mining district out from Ely, says the Desert News. The Blackhorse district at this time is attracting more attention than any other camp in that section of the state. There are now more people in the district than for some time past and the number is being con stantly added to. The strike on the Ohana property is merely one of a series of similar discoveries which have taken place on a number of different properties in the district. The Phoenix, the Nil Desperandum and others have all had their strikes dining the past few months and as a result the attention of mining men is being drawn to the district from all sides. Following the discovery of rich ore on Ihe Greenhorn group owned by William Hamilton the owner was lie sieged with applications for leases. These he at first turned down lint later decided to farm out the property to 200 foot squares along the trend of the 12 foot vein which traverses their property. At last reports there were four outfits at work under leases on the property. According to Mr. Burritt. milling facilities are the only tiling the dis trict needs to enable it to forge rapid ly to the front. He has himself now completed arrangements for the con struction of the first mill in the dis trict. So far scarcely a hole has been sunk in the ground without uncover ing good ore.' Impossible.
