tributed to the Unsuitable appetite Of its
stamps. The average value Of the ore upon
which the mill has been running for several
years is $40 per ton, though rock of a much
lower value can be worked since the cost of
hauling and milling combined does not at
any time exceed eight dollars. The plese at
capacity of the batteries is Thirty Ions per
diem, which is slightly in excess Of the pan
capacity. Next spring four additional pans
will be worked. As before stated, the pro-
plieSors obtain nearly all their ore by pur-
chase, but occasionally work ore for other
60 to so per cent. Of the assay value, and de-
duct from SIS 10 $40 per ton for putting it
through. When it is secured by purchase the
miners receive one-third of the assay value
for moderately low grade ore the plice
being raised in proportion to its increased
worth. All dissatisfaction on the part of the
miners is thus avoided, as the manner of dis
posing oftheir ore is made optional.
Within the past year, now drawing to a
close, extensive and costly improvements
have been made, causing an expense of not
less than $4,000. Dut the end is not yet, for
two mammoth double flue boilers are now at
the terminus awaiting transportation, and the
purchase of still other machinery necessary
to Increase the reducing facilities is in con-
temptation. 4w,
The main difficulty against which The pro-
prieiors are now conteniing is that noiwith-
standing their capacity of thirty tons daily,
they are still unable to execute all orders,
orto reduce large quantities for ore which
they desire to purchase. At the lowest calcu-
lation a dump of 1000 tons Of ore is awaiting
shipment from the Boardman mine alone,
which, when reached, will keep the stamps in

The Hapi,lest Social Event OF the Season

For some time past the cultivated circles of
Butte society have been on the qut viuc in
a%nt.icipation of a coming matrimonial event
of more than usual interest, and last evening
tbe excitement eliminated in the bltssful
union of two loving hearts. We have refer
ence TO the nuptial ceremony uniting the deS-
TIMES of our popular fellow-tow nsman, Mr..
Max Mayer, with those of the charming and
accomplished Miss Dora Engle, a union, by
the way, upon which society sets its stamp OF
enthusiastic approval.
The marriage was solemnized precisely at
7 O'Clock in the Masonic Hall, Mr.. d. Cohen
officiating as Rabbi according to the Hebrew
Gus ON, ATTIC 7hich Judge Irvine, under the
simpler marriage law of this country, per-
formed the same service for the happy couple.
A large assemblase of co~ngratnlating friends
was present. Miss ,Nettie Mendelsohn, Miss
Lizzie Jacobs, Miss Ida Capinus and MissSa-
rah OrnsJein, elegantly attired, acted as brides
maids Messrs. II. Barnet, S. Jacobs, }. Men
delsohn and l.. Wise officiating as grooms-
men. The congratulations of friends were
showered thick and fast upon the
high contracting parties and after grace
full expressions of boundless good Will the
assemblage removed TO the Centennial Hotel.
The genial host, DR.. Beal, here added greatly
TO his reputation as a caterer by furnishing an
elegant and bountiful collation. to which the
guests did ample justice.
Toasts, speeches, the sparkle OF champagne,
aud the smiles of lovely women, comblnedlo
make the memorable OCCASION one OF extreme
pleasure. After the repast was over the
Guests repaired 10 he dane, where JOY con-
tinued uncontined aud d rare and excellent
good lime was had.
Under these favorable auspices, a popular
and successful gentleman and an attractive
and amiable lady are embarked onshe ocean
of matrimonial felicity. They deserve all
the success in life their friends so heartily
presaee for them, and The MINER can only
add the simple wish that they may never be
less happy than they were on their wedding
day.

To give some idea of the number of mines
discovered Ill this vicinity within the past few
years, it may be stated that there are no less
than 142 patented claims within a space of
four miles square on the adjacent hills. As
it COSTS money TO secure a patent, it may be
inferred from the above statement that the
mineral bearing ground of this district is
considered by It's owners 10 be valuable prop
elty. Within The next FIVE years we expect
to see many of our present prospects devel-
oped into dividend paying mines, and as the
great majority of them are patented, it may
be confidently predicted that litigation will
not to any extent retard operations.
