SOME idea of the enormous production n
of the precious metals that are yielded
by our western mines may be had from
the results of those at Leadville. Since
operations were commenced there
the quality of the ore used up to Septem-
Der last amounted to 1869 tons. The
bullion produced equaled 9,958 tons, and
the number of ounces of silver 8, 3,4O1 ,2S3.
The value of the ore shipped is about
$5,50O,0O0, and the silver smelted $3,.
725,0OO. With a production such as
this on the one hand and a stream of
gold pouring into the United States from
Europe, the plethora of the precious
metals in this country bids fair to short
ly become embarrassing.

as Sergeant Jasper, fell in the defense of

kets, and possessing themselves of the
loaded weapons, compelled the surrender
of the six, released the prisoners, escorted
them to the American army at Purys-

his wife and child. 1t is doubtful if his

What Our Ruby Hill Contemporary
Thinks OF It.

THINKS OF IG.
Mr.. Musgroys, Of the Ruby Hill Min
ing Report" during the early part Of the
week, visited the Banner mine, and made
a personal inspection Of its workings.
| He publishes an account Of what he saw
as follows
The total depth Of the incline is 800 feet.
1t followed the ledge all the way down and
in the bottom the vein is II feet wild and
the ore very high grade. At the depth of
l59 feet n lew, was opened on both sides
Of the incline. There were about JOt tons
Of ore extracted, one-half Of which went
over 500 per ton, and the balance from
$50 to $50. About 210 feet down another
level was opened, from which 100 tons Of
very fair ore was taken. This drift is in
lis feet, and near the face . winze was
started and has attained the depth Of rs
feet. There is a splendid showing in this
winze, the ledge is over three feet wide and
the highest grade of ore ever encountered
in the mine. The recent strike is q very
important one, for it proves beyond a
doubt that there is an immense body OF
very rich ore in Prospect Mountain, and
gives a new impetus to mining in the adj
joining claims. At another point on the
mine, a perpendicular shaft was sum 40
feet, in which the ledge is plainly defined.
A force will be set to work in this shaft
some time during the present week.
So far as ~prospected the ledge averages
eight feet in width. There arc 139 o. of
500 rock on the dump. The Banner is a
valuable property, and the more work is
done the richer appears the deposits Of
ore. The ledge can be traced for 700 feet
on the surface. It is owned by M. Nc
Garry, Peter McGarry, Geo. w. Cassidy,
A.. NJ. Hilillouse and NJ. B. Kelley.
