BE1cHER.-This famous mine shows
considerable improvement during the
last day or two, especially at the south
end Of the 110O-foot level, whore It was
said to look a little shaky. The drift
IA now in 225 feet and the face shows
good ore. The main ore body at this
level Is being stopped out rs feet in
width, and Is still continuing wider,
no east wall being found, aud Is being
worked to the hight Of three floors.
The total ore yield for October was
1900 tons, giving a bullion yield Of
1910. 900. The yield Of both ore and
bullion will be largely increased dur
ing the present month. The Enterprise
says: The following mills are now re-
ducing Belcher ores: Occidental, Pet
aluma, Pacific and Rock Point, Day
ton. These mills use quicksilver in
their batteries In order to catch the
free gold contained in the ore, the per
cent Of which Is very large. They are
at present engaged In raising q shaft
from the 1,l0OLfoot level to the 1000
foot level, and are sinking from the
900 to the 1,000-foot level at q point so
feet south Of their north line. for the
purpose Of ventllating the mine. In
the drift to the eastward from the
northern part of the mine, that which
was supposed to be the east wall,
proves to be O sort Of slide, as In and
beyond II they are now finding good
ore. In the old mine they are making
good progress with their new incline,
and are now down so feet below the
S5O-foot level. Big work will be done
In the mine during the present month,
and an astonishing result will doubt
less be obtained.
