The mi

The copper concentration of Boardman &
Stephens has got down to active work.. The
buildin located some distance south of the
copper smelter, is fitted up with a part of the
machinery formerly used in the National
mine, and with a rock-breaker, screens. and
all other needed appurtenances. The works
are at present making a run on ore from the
Parrot mine, where there is a dump of $500
tons for the treatment of which Boardman &
Stephens have the contract. The process en-
ployed IS simple and comparatively cheap,
and is a success as far as the concentration is
concerned. The ore, as taken from the mine,
contains from u to Is per cent. CT copper, but
on being run through the separator is found
to assay from 26 to 46 per cent. of that metal
"a sufficient amount to pay a profit after be-
ing sent east for reduction. The capacity of
the works is about 25 tons per day, and
enough of low grade ore is already promised
the new company to keep them engaged dur
ing the coming winter. Ten men are en-
ployed.
The weekly miner. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1878-1881, 1880-10-05
Work 10 he Resumed.

Since the arrival, on Sunday, of Messrs.
Meneray and Packard, part owners OF the Ac-
QUESTION, and since they have seen the ire
mendous improvement which the develop
ment of the last two months has made in the
property, they have announced themselves
fully in accord with the other members ofthe
company in relation to the project of purchas-
ing such machinery as is warranted by the
proved value of the property, aud of resum-
ing operations with all possible energy. A
week ago it seemed that the mine would be
closed down for the winter, but it has now
been decided to begin the draining of the
mine to-day, with what appliances are at
hand, and of stopping ore until such a time
as the pumping machinery shall be placed in
position, when the sinking of the shafts will
be continued.
This certainly is gratifying news, for the
public was keenly disappointed when it was
stated last week that a property in which all
had so much confidence was about to be
closed down for the winter. The ore on the
dump will sell for more than enough money
to purchase the necessary hosting machinery.
The weekly miner. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1878-1881, 1880-10-05
Road Locomotive.

While taking a constitutional (walk, not
dram,) yesterday morning our attention was
attracted by a singular looking engine placed
in position OIL the Ophir claim, and prepared
to do good service in hosting ore and water
from the incline. Drawing nearer and sub
jecting the nondescript to a close examina-
ton we were not a little surprised in discov-
ering a very compactly built road locomotive,
a machine constructed for the purpose of
hauling ore to the mills, but which it is the
intention of the owner to employ as hosting
engine during the fall and winter. It consists
of a locomotive engine placed in the middle
of a very strong frame work of timber, the
whole being supported by two large driving
wheels, about five feet in diameter each,
placed one on each side in front, and a small
er guide wheel centrally located behind.
This, the first road locomotive constructed in
Montana, was built by Mr. j. F. Allen, form
erly proprietor of the Butte foundry. He
estimates its hauling capacity at 20 tons on a
leyel road.
The Ophir, owned by John Noyes & Co.,
is worked under lease by Mr.. Allen. 1t is a
well-defined vein, dipping south, and quite
wet at the depth of 20 feet. Rich base ore
taken from the incline ranges from 80 to 800
ounces silver per ton, and to judge from the
slight depth yet reached the ore promises to
improve as the incline goes down.

Unique Specimen.

The prettiest specimen yet seen about
Butte was taken yesterday from the Anselmo.
1t consists of a helmet shaped piece of ore,
almost solid silver, while from the 'front.'
piece of the helmet several plumes of wire
silver strands stand gracefully out, forming
so natural looking a crest that it is difficult
upon first seeing the specimen to believe it to
be otherwise than q work of art, instead of a
mere freak of ature. Upon looking at it
we are reminded of the old fables of the
smetal demons" which the ancients believed
to be placed in charge of mines, to guard
their treasures from the touch of p~rofane
hands, and fancy suggests that the iaunty
little helmet was once worn by a gnoIhe of
the silver lode. The helmet specimen en-
riches the cabinet of Mr.. Henry Jacobs.

Runaway.

Monday afternoon Mr.. d. N. Dellingers
delivery horse, evidently disguised with the
monotony of existence, determined to raise a
little excitement all his own. The animal
had been driven to the store house near Mis-
soula gulch, from which place the powder
was beirs removed, and being left alone for a
moment, basely took advantage ofthe drivers
confidence and started off as though he had
been sent for. Under very little restraint, as
the wagon was a light spring vehicle, and I'M
loaded, he rapidly increased his speed and
was in a fair way to lower the 2:lOs record of
Maud s., when he rashly undertook the de-
struction of a log cabin which stood in his
course, the result being that the wagon was
left behind, each wheel going its separate
way. The vehicle was a total wreck. Loss,
about $S5. The horse, which is a valuable
one, was, fortunately, unhurt.
