The MINES AT Pixies PEAK.-A correspon
dent Of the Chicago Press and tribune in Il
review of some Of the impro able stories told
in relation to the richness of the gold deposits
at Pixies Peak, remarks
! "a patient and careful investigation of
Pixies Peak gold mining has convinced me
that The dust nbounds in exhaustless quunti-
ties in the quartz rock and comparatively
little is to be found in guch or dirt diggings
A long tom. pan or rocker will find hut little
to do. until the quartz crusher. driven by
water-power, first provides them work. Aud
most Of those who go to Pixies Peak with
nothing better than pick, pan or rocker,
will return wi fsherman's Il ok, after losing
their outfit and half years time. If man
wants to succeed let him club his means with
two or three others and purchase nn outfit,
consisting of II six horse portable steam en-
gine and a quartz crushing machine; also.
l.o0O feut of leather or canvas hose, to supply
water for washing the pulverized quartz"
