where man may work and be comfortable while he works As has been said Mid the Manhattan district con contains contains contains many prospects and some mines and among the latter those of the L M

that some day If It they keep on sinking shafts and ting and running drifts they will be rewarded ed by finding ore are of ot value They are a who know that for tn every dollar lollar they expend for their employer many dollars will be bo returned On this basis therefore the tha t e work of developing d the Uto Sullivan properties at Manhattan ban been going g on Under the general of ot John D Campbell un uni i 1 the best known and on v the most reliable experts in the sta st of Nevada and under the direct super supervision supervision supervision vision of Ed Hoffman the man who made the Carisa mine In Utah a suc success success success cess when other superintendents had failed the work is going on The wisdom of the Sullivan Trust company in allowing these th se men the fullest full ruB fullest est latitude In giving them authority to use the funds derived from the sale of treasury stock in opening up the ground has been splendidly exemplified ted lied Three of the four Man

guesswork it is not information Information Information tion received from an Interested party It I is 11 the result of ot careful painstaking personal investigation and herewith shall be set forth the outcome I THE INDIAN CAMP I IThe The first of the Sullivan properties to which attention will be called Is the tho th Indian Camp not because it Is the best of oC the lot for all seem equally good but because stock in the Indian Camp c mp Is today quoted at a higher figure than stock In any my of at the other Sullivan Man Manhattan Manhattan hattan corporations The Indian Camp was purchased by the Sullivan compi compa company ny and made ma e the basis of at an Incorporation Ir tion last April ADril At that tuns it was wasa a mere more prospect although the he surface Indications were such as to give the Sullivan experts the assurance that It would develop Into a property of great at value The stock st was put on the market at 20 30 0 cents a shore The Th Issue was at once oversubscribed and he h security com eon commanded commanded a premium when the tb San pan Fran Francisco Francisco Francisco cisco disaster took place This disaster as those who are interested In mining securities will remember had a para par paralyzing effect on all stocks but especial especially ly on Manhattan for the reason that Manhattan stocks were held largely by San Francisco people who were com compelled compelled to realize r on them at once and at almost any price But the disaster had very little effect on Indian Camp and the other Sullivans This for the ther reason r that the Sullivan company Is a developer of at mines rather than thaI a promoter pro promoter promoter moter of mining companies The money mone from tram the sale of the treas treasury treasury treasury ury stock tock f was In the treasury treasur not In lit Inthe Inthe the pockets of any promoter It was there for the purpose of t being r put pat In Inthe Inthe inthe the ground and into the ground It was

com command command command mand upwards of 2 per share within a comparatively brief brier period Soon to Be Big Producer The Sullivan Trust Trust company company t really cares less about the condition of the stock market than about making good for its clients who are s throughout the length and breadth of the United States and In most of the th prominent cities of at the world The ex experience expErIence experience of 1 gullible ones has shown that it Ills Is possible to manipulate n stoat toc mar market market market ket so gO as to create fictitious values It ItIs ItIs Itis Is not possible to create ore in ht paying quantities And ore orb or was what the me com company company company pany was after in m the Indian Camp Manhattan It Is I pleasant nt to be able to say jay with wilh truth that ore are has been found there and In such quantities as warrant the statement that the Indian Camp seems destined to become one Cine of o othe the greatest gold producers in the state of Nevada Neada To get et down to details The main working shaft on the Indian Camp Manhattan has been sunk to a depth depot or feet Two stations have b been en cut cutone cutone cutone one on the and one on the foot level On the tho first named nam j level a crosscut was run feet where experience had demonstrated that a vein would be encountered rh calculation was wag exactly correct A vein oln was encountered at this point It is sixteen fet feet fe t wide and carries values or of from tram 12 to ro In gold with an aver ave average age of 20 per ton No drifting has been done on oOn the strike of this vein em t 1 but ut It Is known to run through the entire I length of the property plop rt At the level the same vein has been encountered though It was necessary ne necessary c to run a crosscut feet on account of the dip of at the vein In to t reach it At this point the vein pin has widened to forty feet and tho the values tire are the same as on the higher level the assays running from 12 to with an average of at 20 per ton Drifting on this vein has been bean Mn done to a distance or feet northwest and southeast at the time the writer saw a the property and every foot of it was as in cIe ore The strike of ot the tho vein is northwest and southeast with a 11 pitch of o 5 S degrees d ArNs southwest New Vein Encountered At a depth of feet an entirely new vein has been encountered in tho the shaft This vein Is considered by y tho the manage management menti ment and the assays show that their J judgment is correct to be bo the best in inthe the tho property The values alues average bet betI I ter than 25 per ton and they the are growing grow growing growIng ing stronger as depth is attained No attempt has haR as ill yet been made to ascer ascertain tain tatu the Ite extent of at this vein but the shaft has been sunk feet in It and there is still no sign of the end endT The T e dip is the same as a that of the other vein According to surface measure measurements measure measurement measurements ments ment by which it Jt Is possible to deter determine mine m ne In this country the width of at veins at depth this vein will be not less than feet wide No attempt will wil be made to cut an another another another other station until he level Is reached At this point drifting on the vein will be begun When Manager Hoffman has sunk the shaft to 0 feet teet teethe he ho will begin sloping the ore At pres present present present ent little Is la being done in the way nay of extraction except such as Is necessary in the progress of development work This development has however re resulted res s In the placing pl Of upward of 1000 tons of ore are of an average value of 20 on the dump There are literally thou thousands thousands thousands sands of tons of ore In the mine wait waiting waitIng ing big for extraction As many men as can be bo worked to advantage are arc being worked In the mine In shifts shirts of right eight hours each The big gasoline hoist IB is s never allowed to stop and there is an air of Industry and activity about the property that Is II not duplicated in any property not a Sulli Suit Sullivan Suitan van an in the entire camp A feature of the development d that has been particularly particularly larb pleasing to o Manager Hoffman has been the encountering of a flow fio of wa water water water ter At present pr It Is 15 what might be called a negligible quantity only 2 00 gallons in hours but It Is expected to grow greater as the mine Is opened so that eventually e there will willbe willbe be enough for a mill yet et not enough to tG interfere In way with the work working ing of oC the property Still Another Vein Mr Hoffmans Investigations have proven to him that there Is still another vein eln on Indian Camp Manhattan ground northeast of what Is known as the shaft vein It runs as Mo the others oth others others ers In a direction on Its strike and with its pitch of 65 55 degrees should be encountered encountered encountered at the level The country be between between between tween the veins is hi highly hl mineralized through small fissures that cross and the main veins and carry high values The Indian Camp Manhattan may be said to be virtually a mountain of mill milling millIng millIng ing ore are It Is easily concentrated rated and every dollar of ot value can be extracted by tho the cyanide process Enough devel developments have been made in the Indian Camp Manhattan alone to justify the erection of a large mill and It is practically practically practically certain that this will be done at al althe atthe atthe the earliest possible moment Then the gold bars will begin going out across the desert and dividends will begin flowing Into the pockets of the share shareholders shareholders holders hoT rs The advice ot dis disinterested disinterested interested and who has e mine Is Hold all the Indian Camp Manhat Manhattan tan you have l axe and buy as much more at atthe atthe atthe the market as your yo r purse will stand It is a sure winner the surest thing In Ina Ina ina a mining way that any Investor could possibly desire 1 I THE STRAY DOG 1 t The Stray Dog Manhattan Is another Sullivan property that has through the expenditure of at treasury money In the ground on which the corporation was based developed from a prospect with comparatively small values val es at the grass crass grassroots Tass roots into a mine that is getting bigger with every Inch of progress in devel development development development work When the tho writer saw the property early in December he had his first glimpse at the real roal thing ingold in ingold Ingold gold mining He saw stored away in ina ina Ina a great treasure treasur chamber that has been hewed out of the solid rock sacks of o ore too precious to store on the sur surface surface surface face of the ground Miners are ordinarily ordinarily ordinarily honest men but Manager Hoff Hoffman Hoffman Hoffman man takes no chances The ore in those sacks is valued at more than 50 60 cents a pound and if It was stored on the surface the constant services of ot watch watchmen watchmen w men would be required It Is estimated that In each sack there th re are pounds of oC this ore making 50 60 pounds In all or tons There has been no guesswork In the sacking The ore are will run 1100 per ton at the lowest estimate and it Is confidently expected that the average will be even higher But at 1100 per ton there Is now in the treasure cham ber awaiting the disappearance of the snow so that wagons can take it across the long desert trail to the railroad ore of at the value of pt And this is a beginning The Tho Stray Dog Man Manhattan Manhattan Manhattan hattan ground has in the eyes of some who are accustomed to very deep min mining mm lug ing barely been scratched Still a beginning and a good begin beginning beginning beginning ning has been be n made Compared with the work on prospects on which some unscrupulous promoters have based in incorporations Incorporations Incorporations corporations the development of the i 1 Stray Dog Manhattan group has been tremendous A shaft has been sunk to toa toa toa a depth of or feet and the sinking is progressing as rapidly as money and men can put it down There will be no cessation of ot the work until a depth of ot feet has been attained Then the sloping will begin Stray Dog Smiths Story Stray Dog Smith who located the Stray Dog Manhattan many months ago would be surprised if he could come back and see what has been done on the ground in which he has lost all financial interest But Smith has dis disappeared disappeared disappeared appeared no man seems to know whither He may be dead ho hp may be camping out somewhere on the desert or in the forbidding hills or he may be wearing out his hits life in a crowded city elt The one sure thing is that his nickname will live after alter him for many years ears while the work worle of taking gold out of the claim he be located goes on Smith was a humane man Let that fact be set down to his credit cre it In his breast there beat a heart that was stirred at least occasionally by noble impulse impulses It was such an impulse that led to the location of at the Stray Dog Manhattan Smith was wandering about the hills his prospecting outfit on 1115 back when ht sat down W f to rest un ted pine He was tired and thirsty and out of sorts with himself and the world As he sat there half dreaming he heard a faint whine At first |
