Ber nN cme re ee Se i Be = Sain James Cronan and Charley Wright left the camp early on Saturday-morning, in.a private conveyance, for a point near Timber Mountain, on the Muddy, in the southern part of Lincoln county, Nevada. A few days ago some California ranchmen, who were traveling throngh the Muddy country.on their way to Arizona, found a ledge of what they be73 o thverlieved to be good silver-bearing quartz. They sacked a quantity of the rock, brought it to the Reef with them, and had it assayed by Mr. Cronan. What the returns were we have beeti unable to learn, but the report around town {fs that all the specimens tested went away up into the thonsauds of dollars to ihe ton. The factthat Messrs, Cronan and Wright started out forthe locality immediately afterward, and took with them an assaying outfit wherewith to test such rock as they might come .across, Jends color to the statement about the value of the quartz brought in by theranchmen. The discovery of rich. mines in the neighborhood indicated would occasion little surprise here, ag very rich float has been brought in from there at different times, and by parties who could have no object in Wing about the-tocality.

Cleary tefuse to_let_ anybody know on what part of the Wash they found the croppings. As soon as some few preliminaries can be arranged, the ground will be located, and then probably we shall know something more about it. OO oo The Kinner. The Kinner continues to furnish the Leeds mill with about fifteen tons of ore a day. Next to hoisting and pumping machinery Colouel Wall needs a mill of his own to reduce the lower grade of ores found in the mine, and it would surprise nobody if he should go quietiy to work before Jong and order the necessary machinery. Ores that will not pay to mine and ship to a-custom mill could then be extracted and made to return handsome profits. The recently-ordered hoisting machinery for the Kinner will probably not reach here for three weeks yet. A Christmas Hestaurants. Tree. Gentlemen! Go to J. B. Stephens, fof your GOOD FITTING BOOTS.
