No matter what anybody thinks or say s-i-weT care not a snap'of the finger about conclusions of those who never have seen the ground and our mine but we do court the opinions of those informed there is a universal expression that HORNSILVER IS TODAY ONE OF THE MOST PROLIFIC GOLD AND SILVER CAMPS BE NEATH THE CLOUDS. AND "'J- '- "1 .,' : The Tiger Butte Mine One of the Hornsilver Infants Soon to Develop Into a Giant Am " . Oftentimes hungry frequently in almost tatters and rags the discovers of Tiger Butte strenuously labored to establish what everybody now knows to be the nucleous of a mine destined to most lavishly reward its finders and all those .who own its shares, and thus, assist in opening its vaults of treasure to the hands of man. We require the installation '-of a hoist in miners1 vernacular a "gallows' and we are ready for business, but like the traveler requiring a $100 railroad ticket and only $90 to his name, we must have help to get that other $10, In our case it is another $1,000 or a little over, and , ' : TO GET THE MONEY QUICKLY WE ARE SELLING 25,000 SHARES OF THIS 12c STOCK AT 5 CENTS EACH. One dollar to us now means as much as $2,50 when we are shipping ore, and it is for this reason that we are sacrificing this block of stock upon the heartless altar of necessity. . HAyE DECLARED THAT HORNSILVER IS ONE OF THE WORLD'S GREATEST CAMPS, AND SO IT IS. t , All its acquaintances-make this declaration, and none are more honest in this regard than the Goldfield newspapers, notwithstanding the new camp is in every sense an active rival of the old. The Chronicle, News and Tribune of Goldfield and the Nevada Mining News of Reno, are constantly filled with the most outspoken applause of Homsilver and Us mmes,-telling.usthat the shi and the outlook there even more promising than in Goldfield yes, a dozen tinies over at the 6ame age. v ; y. y ' ... ; , ..

The quarts dikes are strong and persistant and similar to those of the Gold Mountain district, just across the Oranlt Range. The town Is growing as rairtdly aa supplies' and ' building materials can be ahlpped in. and lots on the main street have sold for as nigh fas 11,000.' Annexes, additions and extensions to the town are be- . log laid out. The camp is on aalope, making drainage and sanitation easy. The Russell fcrothers,' Tames and Howard, have worked patiently on their Oreat Western property for three years and have developed a mine which la now acknowledged to be one ot the greatest silver-gold properties in southern Nevada. For months past they have been shipping by mule team a 16-ton load every other day of ore running from $150 to (200 per ton.' This ore was taken from above the 100-foot level, but yesterday the ore-body was entered In a ouMisout from the 200 level, and shows a magnificent vein of shipping ore. WlthlrfU stone's throw of the Oreat Western engine-house, on the Friable lease, ore has been found at a depth of 12 feet which runs over $2,000 per ton. On the Peyllng claim of the Russell boys' Silver King claim the Deane lease has a ledge running from $50 to $100 on the- surface. In at least a dosen places shipping ore has been opened up and a number of owners are making preparations to ship, as a considerable quantity of shlp- ?lng ore, all of which has been taken out In development, la sacked and ready or the sampler. If teams can be had it is probable that there will be seven or eight shippers by July 1. Officials of both the Brock and Clark railroads have been looking: over the field and siting up the avaUabiatonnage with a view to building a branch road, probably from near Cuprite, to the new district. The owners of claims have adopted a most liberal plan of leasing, the royalty rate being; generally IB per cent flat and the term at least 1$ months. A number of prominent Ooldfield operators have secured properties or leases In the district and a live ly,, campaign ot development Is scheduled for the Immediate future. - - (Ooldfield. News May 6.) One-halt of the Friable lease from the Silver King Mining Company on the Red Top claim at Homsilver was sold today for $10,000. The sale was made to Johnny Hook, a well known Colorado mining man, who has been In the dis trict for a short time looking over the mining1 properties there. The news was telephoned to Ooldfield today to How ard Russell, -who has extensive Inter ests at Hornsilver. The Hornailver situation Is looking up In a very gratifying manner, and the future of the camp seems assured. Five leases have ben let lately on Lime Point ground. Three were taken by H. Fred Scott, who la working In the IS 50-foot Shaft of the company own ing the Lime Point ground, and who has contracted to put In a 26-horse-power gasoline hoisting engine within SO days . No. 4 lease was let to Mrs. Dr. Francis E. Williams and associates, and there la an 80-foot shaft on that lease and three feet of ore assaying on an aver acre of SS0.E0 a ton.

The stock was held at 16 cents and the company has no mors .for sale at present (Ooldfield Tribune May .) A representative of the Tribune made a trip yesterday by auto to Hornsilver, and . passed no less than 1 5 wagons headed for the new mecca, all of them loaded with material needed In a new camp. The Oreat Weatern Is the big mine of i the camp,' and the ore has been struok at the 200-foot level, and It Is wider and richer than In any of the upper levels. Steady shipments are be ing made. ; In the past month there has been a rush to the comparatively new dis trict, and In it there was some of the wisest prospectors and mining inves tors who ever went into a new mining rtlntrlrt In that same length of time. For- miles around- the original find the territory nas oeen suutea. uiu or more of lessees are busy; and in more than one of the ahallow shafts better ore than that mined on the Ureat Western Is being taken out . Yesterday, by actual count, there were 110 tents and frame houses in the town. One of the best showings Is on the Friable lease on the Red Top, one ot the properties owned by the Silver King company. At a depth of 22 feet there Is showing two fet of quarts, and it la all high-grade. From picked sam ples assays - have been' secured that went as high as $2,000 a ton in gold and silver. . J.

There are two distinct ledges on the property. One can be traced for 2,000 feet and the. other 1,500. In the bottom of the 106 foot incline shaft there is an eight-foot ledge. All the mining men that have seen this are sure that It is the same ore body which the Oreat Weatern Is now shipping, running $10,009 to the car, and It Is lust a question of sinking a shaft to the SO 0-foot level and the Tiger Butte Company will be another Oreat Western.

Deane has returned from Homsilver, where he has secured some excellent ground on the Deyllng claim of the Silver King property, owned by James and Howard Russell. On this lease shipping ore Is In sight at the surface, values of from $50 to $100 being found on the fine quarts leads traversing the ground. When seen by a Chronicle reporter today, Judge Deane said regarding his trip and the new district; "I traversed an extensive field. The Hornsilver region ia big enough to make many mines, and the Oreat Western will repeat itself undoubtedly in a score of places. The region lies at the south end of that extensive flat area lying between Jackson mountain and Stonewall, a fine stretch of desert 20 miles square.

'. u Oresden, May .At last the Meyer Hng mystery, -has been cleared tip. A, court official, who conceals his identity under the pen name of "an Austrian aristocrat. " has written en 'lntimate his tory of "The tragic end of Crown Prince Rudolph," from the advartoa sheets of which ths following relaUoo ia taken The new book proves conclusively that the Baroness Marie Vetsera was not killed by the crown prince, but that aha committed suicide by potsonr that the crown prince killed himself In a fit of semi-drunken, semi-insane remorse and that this double tragedy was pre ceded by another. Much of the atory is substantiated by transcripts of the last letters written by ths Crown Prince Rudolph and the Baroness Marie Vetsera. 1 These letters were copied from the originals In the secret archives of the Austrian imperial family by Count TJgarte of Rome,-the husband of Marle'a youngest sister who also committed suicide In 1901. These things being clearly stated, the book tlisn describes the last days of the lllfated lovers as follows: .- On January 7, 1889, a papal delegate presented hfrfiself In the court mar shal's office of the Imperial Hofburf. He brought lettera from Pope Leo XIIL setting forth that he was authorised to communicate with his msjssty. the Emperor Francis Joseph, uirect and without the knowledge of the , papaj nuncio accredited In Vienna : ; Bmperor Amassd. The emperor's amaaement - knew- ne bounds when he learned for the first time from the pope's . letter that the holy father was advising Crown Prince Rudolph, through his majesty, that it waa impossible for the Vatican to grant the prince Imperial the divorce he waa seeking at the pontiff's feet Francis' Joseph waa still more amaaed when the pope quoted a letter - from the crown prince also asking a separation." . . When the emperor had finished read ing the pope's letter he sent for his brothers. Archduke Alhrecht and Karl Ludwig, the. prince bishop of Vienna, Dr. Gangibauer, and Rudolph. Re asked the 'elder gentlemen to be seated, then facing Rudolph, both standing under the Igreat central chandelier of the lib rary, he read the pope's .epistle with irreat ' solemnity. y Rudolph listened to Pope os let. ter with varying emotiona Surprise, resentment, fear, were alternately pic turedi on his countenance. Then, over corn by smotlod he threw himself Ints his father's arms and promised on his honor to accept the pope's advice, re turn to his wife and break with Baron ess Vetsera- Following his father's in vitation hs at once repaired to the crown princess to beg her pardon for his long neglect and assure her that his love had returned and that thereafter he would honor her as wife and mother. Btepheay was overcome with Joy, "Then you accompany me to ths dinner party at Reus?" she asked. Kadolph Promlstl, Rudolph kissed her end said he would be only too happy. Two hours later Prince Rous' guests were discussing the reconciliation of the long estranged couple and before she -went to bed that night Stepheny telegraphed to King Leopold: ''Tour daughter is once more happy. Heaven be praised," Before leaving. Prince Rous, Rudolph and Stepheny Issued Invitations for a dinner to be held January i, when the reooneiliatloa was to be officially cele brated. Next morning (January SI), Rudolph announced to his wife that he- had pre viously mads arrangements to hunt at Meyerling, Prince Philip of, Coburg, Count Joseph Hoys and others being his guests. "But I will be back tomorrow sfter noon.'' he assured his wife. ' Inthe meantime the baroness heard the story of the reconciliation. Sha immediately communicated with ' one Bratfieson, the cabman who always drove Adolph when the latter did not want to be seen la his own carriage, ' . ; Bands Xtsa. Bratflesoh Informed the ' baroness that he had orders to drive Rudolph to his hunting box. "Five hundred gulden if you will take this letter to him, and five hundred more if you return with orders to bring me to the Meyerling," sai l the baroness. ' ' Bratflesch earned the thousand gold en and in doing so sealed the - death warrant of the three. . ' " t The hunting party at Meyerling was much disappointed on Tuesday morning, January S6, . whsa Rudolph- Informed his friends that a eold prevenrsd him from partkjtpating la the chase. At about the time when the hunters left for the forest Baroness Mary entered Bratfiesch's cab In Vienna and was rap idly driven away in the direction of the auburb. The lovera met at a oroas road, about a mile from Meyerling. and drove to ths hunting lodge together. rtuaoipn ana siarie entered tne green parlor of the lodge on the sec ond floor and some time later the crown prince dispatched -the following telegram to Stepheny': "Sorry 1 can't come; am Indisposed, but It Is nothing serious. .' Love, Rudolph." Mother learns of Trip. In the meantime Baroness Marie's mother sad learned of her daughter'a trip and had called upon Count Taaffe, tfien prime minister, demanding that he cause the crown prince to send home her daughter. T beseech your excel lency," said the mother.- "to rescue my little gtxl -from the clutches of this be bauohed man." - Fearing that the minister might not act, the Baroness Vetsera drove to her brother the hanker Baltassi. and asked him to go to Mayarling and bring back Maria Baltassi . ordered ths fleetest four-ln-Iiand from hia stables and start ed off at breakneck speed. - Baltassi - burst-' into- the green salon while bis niece -was imploring the crown prince not to forsake her. particularly aa she was In . a - delicate condition. Hearing this, the uncle flew Into a rage and swore that Rudolph must keen his promise to the girl, adding that If he refused he (Baltassi) would Inform the emperor anA all the world that Rudolpji had broken his word of honor by onoe more receiving Marts In his house. "Don't talk of honor; it sounds badly In ths mouth- of a procurer!" shouted Rudolph. . . - - -- , -'.: - ..'i. . -- The banker at ' once jumped fr his throat The crown prince tore himself loose, seised ..a revolver- and shot Marie's uncle in the abdomen, lust as one of the hunting arty.

So hs ordered Bratflesch to fetch a priest, while the crown prince's body physician attended to the wound, . Drink Deeply. ' A Less than 10 minutes after her vnole was wounded to death, Marie sat down to dinner with her slayer and the hunt ing party, a dinner at which every one drank deeply. About midnight the crown prince announced that his cold compelled him to withdraw, and ordered Bratflesch to drive the baroness to ths Royal hotel in Baden. This was done for decorum. After all had 'taken leave of Marie, she slipped up the stairs and into Rudolph's apartments. : The crowns prince, who had . drunk very heavily; soon fell asleepv while Ma rie sat up thinking of her disgrace. She leaned out of the window and saw the room where the doctor was working over the prostrate fcjrm of her uncle. If he died, and he waa sure to die, she had overheard his blood waa on her head. .
