Five Hundred and Ninety-eiaht
Ounces Silver and TWO and
One-Third Ounces Gold
The Average OF a Vein Three
Feet ana Four Inches Wide
That is Growing Larger and
Richer.
cHLoRIDE's NEW STRIKE.

The rich assays from the surface
groupings of this prospect. noticed In
our last weeks Issue, has attracted thu
undivided attention Of the camp, and
the exploration since made has served
to increase whatever anticipations
may have been INDUCED in. Upon Mr..
Shaw making his discovery known,
Messrs. George Turner and Charles
Garfield purchased one : fourth of
the property, and Mr.. Garfield immedi-
ately commenced prospecting it. The
ledge is about twenty feet wide, and
the removal of a couple of tons of ore
disclosed a pay streak three feet four
inches wide, which averages FIVE hun
dred and ninety-eight ounces silver and
two and one-thlrd ounces gold. The
quartz of the pay streak Is Of a highly
crystalline nature, and is blush in APP
pearance with the thoroughness of its
liberalization, while yellow specks of
gold appear to give visible proof of the
certainty of this royal metal in the pay
streak. What is in the fifteen feet of
the UNEMPLOYED vein lying TO the north
and east of this pay streak as yet nc
one can tell TO a certainty, as only
about five feet of the vein next to the
southwest wall has been explored, but
from a knowledge of the country gain
ed by constant observation a pay streak
of great richness may be predicted il
not a thorough dissemination of metal
throughout the entire vein.
The ledge, which lies about a mile
and a half north of Chloride in INT OF
the tributary gulches to Chloride creek
is now being prospected to decide the
best place to commence operations
work being continued III the first open
ing made, which shows increase IL
width and quality Of mineral.
This vein has been examined by some
Of our most experienced and best in
formed miners. and they are unhesi
tating IN giving the opinion that it has
the very best evidences of permanenc,
and great richness.
Since writing the above, returns o.
an assay of this ore made by Col. J. B
Mutton, of Fairview. have reached u
which give S1,055 in gold and silver.

has ore enough on the dumps and in
sight In the drifts, to keep his ten
stamps busy for n year.
1t is reported that John b. Adams,
Supt. Of the Alaska and other proper
ties, has received orders to push the
wOlk. But lac SLY the work will not
he pushed until he is satisfied that the
miners union will not interfere with
his employing men at such prices as
the men are willing to work for. The
union will not consent to this method
of rich companies taking advantage OF
men who come into the country in
Strengthened circumstances, and insist
that all those who work under ground
shall receive the same pay, be they
strangers or old timers AT this point
the matter rests. And in the mean
time miners throughout the territory
and in Colorado and Arizona are being
warned, by a committee appointed fol
that purpose and other ways, regarding
the circumstances. Already Other
unions are offering aid in case it viii
be required.

HERMOSA.

The Antelope shows a body of first
class ore two feet in width. The vein
at this point is twelve feet in width.
A new strike of Importance has
been made upon the Flagstaff and the
American Flag; but no assays have
been made as yet.
A branch road to the claims down
the canon has been completed. 1t
leaves the main road where Willow
creek emptie5 into the PalOmas and
goes as far as the Palomas Chief.
The Pelican is looking well, the ore
remaining constant as to the quantity
and quality. The adit is now about
forty feet from mouth TO face and shows
a fine band of ore the whole distance,
at places being wholly in ore.
A party of Colorado men camped on
the main PalOmas. a short distance
above the cabin, found some rich gold
float the other day which they traced
five miles up the creek, when the snow
commenced interfering in behalf of the
bonanza that was fast being discov-
ed.
The first trip over the new road was
made last Monday by Jim Moody, Tom
Kittrell, Geo. Beebe and John Hamil-
ton who arrived here from Chloride
with a four mule team. The load they
hauled over the road enabled them to
pass a very favorable opinion on it in
regard to it as a freight load.
The Palomas Chief holds its own, q
breast of ore showing in the new adit
three feet in width with the east wall
of the adit composed of ore. Two re-
cent assays return "a unces and 1914
ounces silver and one-third ounce
gold. The new adit is SO feet IN depth
and work progressing rapidly.
The new discovery on the Albatross
holds its own and. each succeeding
blast throws new ore on the roof of the
cabin beneath the workings. Two men
have been working on tho Columbia
and the lower adit has reached a
distance under cover of t~hirty-five feet
the ore shows some gold as well as
silver.

dack this week that gave $3.50 in gold
and silver.
For a week past fires have been in
progress in the foot hills of the Cuchil-
los, burning from a point east of Fair
view over considerable territory south.
Harry Chandler brought in some
good looking rock this week from the
General Arthur, near Ojo Caliente, in
which he is interested with the Cloud
mar boys. A shaft is being sunk, and
now at a depth of fifteen feet it shows
some nice mineral.
On Monday six good miners, under
charge of w. G. White as superinten-
dent, will commence work on the Black
Knife, and ore will be taken from the
mine every hour in the day, which will
be reduced 10 bullion as fast as the
smelter can work 1t. The sorting of
the present dump is completed, and
about seventy tons has been delivered
10 the smelter. Col. Mutton sends by
next mail to San Francisco for an ex-
pert to take charge, and as soon Us he
arrives the smelter will blow in, and
then Fairview will wear a s%ure-enough
air of prosperity.
