narrow escape yesterday from losing
life or limb. Some workmen have been

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Assured.
A very impairment mining purchase
was made yesterday by Major W. A.
Elderkin. Capt. ]. ]. O'Brien and w.
NJ. Mast. The purchase is important
from two considerations: First, the
mines are SO far developed as to sshow
that they are very rich gold lodes, and,
secondly, they are within twenty five
miles of Cheyenne. Our people are OF
course interested in these two facts.
John A. Dial, the welt known ranch.
man and miner. who has lived near Ia.
BILE mountain for many years, was the
grantor OF the mining claims, which
are named as follows: The "Calabunk,'i
sCloy Eta, /" "Idonia" and the ''Boom'
erang.u Mr.. Dial owned but q half in
terest in the latter claim, which is pro
nounced q very promising one. II
carries gold in splendid paying quanti'
ties; no assay being less than $14, and
the greater number being ver $40 pei
ton. The vein is an extremely wide
one, and the ore is partially decomposed,
30 that it al be mined and milled at
a very small cost. AS the lode is a vast
one, there seems to be a bonanza in il
alone. But the other, claims in the
group are equally promising. though
the ore may not be quite SO easil,
mined.
Assays obtained from all Of the
claims show very satisfactory figures,
while an examination of the prospects
by experienced parties has demonstrated
the permanence Of the lodes. 1t is uu-
derstood to be the intention of the pur-
chasers to put up a small stamp mill
for a start, on North Grow creek, and
make the mines pay for their own de-
velopment. The uccess of this feature
seems assured, based upon controlling
assays.
This new purchase will undoubtedly
draw q greater share Of attention to the
region round about Table mountain.
and will inspire prospectors to examine
the hills thoroughly. The persistency
of Mr.. Dial during the past two years
Is at last rewarded, and a fine mining
camp promises to DOL grow out Of the
region that contains many fine gold
claims.
