MINING NOTES.

Another very quiet week. About the
only notable occurrence was the arrival
Mr.. ]. H. Ely and Mr.. Godbe of Salt
Lake, who are interested in the Ely
mine. From the latter the reports con-
inus to be very encouraging. There
now seems to be very little doubt but
this enterprise will be successful and
that Mr.. Ely will have the good fortune
Of owning in and naming another first
class mine in this district. II is said
that lightning never strikes twice in the
same place, but to all rules there are ex-
ceptions, and this seems one of them.
We understand that Mr.. Godbe was much
pleased with the appearance of the
claim and that the work of developing
will be vigorously pushed. In outside
districts there have been sales of claims
made, both in Pennsylvania and Long
Valley Districts. Work in Groom Dis
trict is also being actively carried on.
Though not by any means out of the
woods, and therefore no time to shout,
We think that mining matters in Phoebe
and surrounding districts are now slowly
commencing to recuperate. Its long
lane that has no turn and Heaven knows
Ploche has been progressing along an
extremely lengthy .thoroughfare. The
exports Of bullion for the week ending
last night figure up $34, 057.

levels. The ore breasts are without

level is being opened as rapidly as posi-
BILE. The pump keeps the water in the
shaft at certain point below, which, for
the present, no attempt is being made to
reduce. At the mills the product of bull
ZION keeps about the same rate, both as
regards result and rate per ton. There
has little else occurred during the past
week to cause remark. The same obser-
walton applies generally to the Meadow
Valley which is without any change.

visit to this shaft y yesterday revealed
tie fact that the shaft was down to
depth of sixty feet, with pretty good
seams of rich ore, the ledge at that depth
being forty feet wide from foot wall to
hanging wall and showing well. The
ore assays from 500 to $l,500. Many
parties have visited this mine from
Pioche and the surrounding districts,
also from Salt Lake, and pronounce it
one OF the finest prospects for good
mine they have seen.
This company is keeping its employees
steadily at work in the upper drifts, and
also in opening the lower level. Night
and day shifts are employed. The face
IN the lower drift has the appearance that
ane ledge may be struck at any moment.
