him. The doctors administered RENE.

The army or some kindred worm has
been making raids on oat fields in this
vicinity, and has entailed serious loss in
many instances. Mr.. Turrell had over
a hundred acres taken in one body,
as we understood, and at the fair meet.
ing on Saturday a number of other los
ers were reported, Mr.. Duncan being
among them. The worms worked so
stealthily and swiftly for the latter,
that he didn't discover the loss un.
til they had removed themselves out
Of sight, leaving nothing but the stalks
of the oats behind them, utterly strip
ped ofithe grain. Our neighbor over
the way, Mr.. Truesdell, is another
victim to the extent af fifteen acres.
One of Mr.. Turrells tenants pulled
out his watch to time a specimen
worm, and found that he consumed
just one minute in cutting off the grain
from stalk of oats, and then travelled
unto another. Mr.. Z. has bottled q
few specimens for preservation.-Red-

SH YER BASIN ITEMS.

1t is only three miles to Silver basin
by the new trail, leading around to the
right of Mt. Owen, over the head Of
o, -Be-Joytul and hugging close to the
mountain. The trail was built by
Stevens & Co., Prindell & Martindale,
Swan Bros, August Schrimann, Mr..
Miller, and Sayles & Robertson. Maj.
Gen. Stevens acted as engineer and
superintendent, and displayed his greet
skill as such.
The N. Y. Central is being worked
by Prindell Bros, Martindale & Co.
This lode is one of the most promising
in the basin. The shaft is 50 it deep
and shows 2o-inch pay streak. The
quartz is very much the character of
that of the Forest Queen.
The Poland and Alabama, extern
sions fthe Gen. Sayles, owned by the
Ruby District mining company and
Chas. Stevens, have had the assess
ment work done upon them and show
good body of quartz with some min
eral and, will doubtless, when sufficient
work is done, be paying mines.
The Swan Bros are actively work.
ing several claims which show up we'll.
They are speaking Of working several
of their best lodes all winter.
Charles Stevens & Co. are working
vigorously upon some half dozen
claims, all of which arevery promising.
The Texans who recently visited
our camp, Col. E. H. Fordtran and
Mr.. Cockrill, who are largely inter
ested in the Galveston-Ruby mining
company, have purchased from John
Callahan and G.. A. Russ their inter
ests, being SO in the Gen. sayles
mine, and tine company have purchased
from the same parties the entire oi
little Oracle lode. These transfers
throws the entire management of the
Gen. Sayles and its main extensions,
the Little Oracle and Silver Chief,
under the control Of J. W. Sayles, the
property making an unbroken vein Of
4, 5ooieet, showing crossings along the
entire length of crystal quartz and
spar from 10 to 20 feet wide, will
doubtless prove a bonanza to the
lucky owners. The developments thus
far are a 6s-ft shaft and shaft house on
the Gen. Sayles; an 18-ft shaft and
3o-ft tunnel on the Little Oracle q
as-f, 15-ft and 17-ft shaft and shaft
house on the Silver Chief lode. The
Gen. Sayles and Little Gracie each
show a SIT crevice between vail rock,
with 4 s-ft pay streak. The ore IS ar.
senical iron and galena, highly stain-
led With copper and blackjack, which

strongly impregnated with arsenical
iron, upon which soft. shaft was
sunk last winter, but work had to be
discontinued in the spring on account
of water. This company owns some
20 claims in this district, many Of
them showing exceedingly we'll, also
some valuable property near Gothic,
among which is the Virginia Belle, a
fine lead, specimens from which have
run 1900 ounces of silver per ton.
The entire management of this prop
erty is under the control of Mr.. D.
B. Powers, the vice president and
general superintendent OF tine COM
pany.
The coal interest of this country is
assuming some magnitude, for it is
spreading and extending over consid-
cradle scope. Will Remington came
in from the reservation Z few days
ago where he has been looking after
some coal claims about 40 miles from
here. He has fine vein of anthra-
cite which shows a width of six or
eight feet at distance Of ten feet
from the surface. It situafed with
in twelve miles of the D. & R. G..
survey. Messrs. w. H. Whittlesy and
O. G. Shultz also have some valuable
interests in that direction in the way
Of coal claims.
The dispute over the Bonanza
Adirondack claim, situated just above
the town of Ruby, has at last been
settled to the satisfaction of all parties
concerned, and work on it will be re-
sumed in few days. 1t is the inten-
ton of tine owners to expend about
81, 900 in development upon it at the
present time and, Of course, should
pay mineral in sufficient quantity be
taken out, the work will be continued
without cessasion all winter. There
is at present a 65-ft tunnel, a 25-ft
shaft and 14-tt open cut on the vein.
Near the latter stands the celebrated
cabin which was used as the strong
hold from which to defend the claim
last winter. The claim has Oft vein
Of quartz carrying ruby and brittle
silver, an assay from the surface OF
which gave 200 ounces of silver and a
trace of gold.

Mining Mention

The Plumo lode, the boss mine on
Treasure mountain, is owned and be-
ing worked night and day by the
Ruby & Treasury Mountain mining
company.
John NJ. Sigel has transferred to
John NJ. Lapp an undivided II inter
est in the Little Jessie, Texas Girl and
Temple lodes, and Il interest in the
Logan Boy lode.
The Grand View lode, in Redwell
basin, owned by T. T. Palsgrove, ct
al, has tunnel 80 feet long, which
is intended to cut the vein at a depth
of 100 feet. The groupings show the
vein to be FL feet wide. Forty fee,
more work will cut the vein, which
will be done this fall.
The Kirkendall lode in Ruby basin,
has tunnel 90 feet long, and at dis
tance of twelve feet more the owners
expect to cut the vein at a depth OF
17s feet from the surface. The lucky
owners of this property are Mrs. A.
!. Miller, Messrs. ]. w. Skinner and
S. P. Lyons.
The Young America has 80 feet Of
shafting completed, which will be con.
tinued until a depth of 100 feet is at
tanned. Pay rock which will mill
from 900 to 500 ounces per ton is be-
ing taken out in quantity and has ac-
cumulated until about 20 tons are now
on the dump. The pay streak, ; feet
wide, IS getting larger as the shaft is
sunk on it.
Ore from the Youngstown lode, sit
uated east of town, give .973 ounces to
the ton. This claim is owned by
Messrs. Curley & Connolly, of the
lower town. The owners are now
erecting shaft house and will ship
ore in a few weeks. This assay was
obtained at the bottom ofa aft shaft.
The lead is about "a feet wide with a
pay streak one foot wide. The ore is
ruby and brittle silver. This is quite a
good strike and is ip locality where
there has never been much found.
Mr.. D. 4. Powers. superintendent
of the Ruby & Treasury Mt. mining
company, accompanied by Alex. Gull
lett, Esq, and Miss Lou Turner, of
Crested Butte, visited Gunnison last
week. The gentlemen went for the
purpose Of compromising the long dis
puted Bonanza Adirondack claim,
over which the lively battle took
place last spring. The compromise
will give 7-12 Of the Bonanza-Adrion-
dack and Maggie claims to the Ruby
& Treasury Mt. mining company, and
5-12 to McCabe, Horri gan, Keough
and others.
The St. George, in Redwcll basin,
has an 8-ft. vein which is interspersed
throughout with galena, iron, gray
and native copper. The pay streak is
"a inches wide of solid galena of fine
grain and assays 81 ounces per ton in
silver and 81 per cent. lead. There
are several tons of this ore on the
dump. 1t has a shaft IS feet deep
which shows perfect walls, and the
vein can be distinctly traced from one
end OF the claim to the other. The
owners are Cartwright & Co.
The Elk Mountain & San Juan mi
ming company have let two contracts,
one on Prairie Flower and the other
on the May Mona lodes in Evans
basin. The Prairie Flower, now down
II feet, shows galena that runs 90 ozs.
silver per ton, and it is confidently
expected that when depth is gained it
will turn out a good mine. The May
Norma has a3-ft. shaft on the vein,
mineral from which looks very prom.
ising. This company is also working
night and day shifts on the Clara lode
in Elk basin, which shows some ruby
