The MORTON MINE.
II Is to be Taken Hold Of by an Exs
periemccd Mining Man.


The Morton mine in Lees gulch,
about five miles below HALEY, and
5000 feet from the famous Minnie
Moore, is about to change hands.
Last evening deed to 100 feet of it,
owned by f. +. Brim, of this city,
was placed in escrow in I. II. Jones'
bank. According to the conditions OF
this deed, the purchasers, Lyttleton
Price and w. b. Scott, agree to put
force of men at work on the Morton
mine Immediately, and take the prop
erty within sixty days. The price to
be paid is $4,000, in three payments.
two of $4,000, and one of $4,000.
The first payment to be made as soon
as the title to the property is examined,
the second payment fifteen DAYS after,
and the third payment thirty days
after the second. The property
would therefore be paid for in forty
five days, on the basis of $4,000 for
the whole mine.
The 1000 feet bargained for will
undoubtedly be accepted and the first
payment made upon it as soon as the
title shall be examined by Mr.. Price,
who is out Lost River way examining
some mining property with the view of
investing in it, if it suits him. He is
expected back Saturday or Sunday.
In his absence Mr.. Scott signed the
lapers and deposited 81 900 forfeit.
Messrs. Scott and Price are former
residents of Arizona, where they at
tanned distinction, each in his line,
MIR. Scott as mining and smelling
superintendent, and Mr.. Price as an
attorney at law. They came here some
time ago to look over the country
with the view of settling if they found
anything worth their while to take
hold of.

About 400 Men at Work In the Camp

A"O"' 1VV men NJ work In the Camp

Major Frank p. Cavanah, superin.
tendent Of the Atlanta Hill Mining
and Milling Company, got in last eve.
nlng from Atlanta, having come down
to lay in heavy stock of winter sup
plies.
He states that work is being
pushed energetically on the Big Lode
and Tahoma mills. The Big Lode
company's mill will start up on the
LIST OF October, without fail, and the
Tahoma mill will be started up some
time thereafter. The former is gold
mill OF twenty stamps, and the latter
silver mill of ten stamps. The
Buffalo mill is running Oh Monarch
atlanta company's) ore, and in
week or so will begin ON several
hundred ton run of Jessie Benton ore.
The Last Chance gold mill is running
steadily on Atlanta Hill Company's
ore, and yielding an average of over
$1,000 a day. This company has a
twenty-stamp silver mill on the ground
which will be erected next spring.
There will be ninety stamps run
ming in the camp next summer, with
plenty of ore ahead.
In the mines good progress is max
ing, and the workings are showing
satisfactory quantities OF rich ore. The
Monarch ATLANTA Company's) mine
is opening up very rich on the 4OO-foot
level and there seems to be no end to
its e-bodles. Superintendent Petit
is figuring on estimates for twenty
stamp mill that will be put up he 1t
year. He is now employing about fifty
men, besides keeping the Buffalo mill
running on Monarch ore
AT the Big Lode mines and mill
about fifty men are employed, and
Superintendent Baxter is confident of
making good record next spring.
At the Last ance mine the 800
foot level shows much better ore, and
in larger body, than ever yet found
in the mine. Major Stanton, the
foreman, is fixing the mine up in
splendid shape, and working about 40
men. With the 10 at the mill and in
the Office, this company employs about
80 men altogether.
AT the Tahoma nine and mill about
80 men are at work. Very little is
doing in the mine, as there is large
quantity of ore in sight awaiting re-
duction at the mill.
The Buffalo Company are employ
ing Is or 70 men, and preparing to
erect hosting works. Outside of those
mentioned above, about rs miners are
employed. Also, about 200 coal
burners, woodchoppers, transfers,
etc.
The companies all have regular pay
days, the camp is therefore prosperous
though not lively, and there is not
known thief or strumpet in town.
The people there complain of the
action of Wells, Fargo & Co. in with
drawing the express from Rocky Bar,
and thus compelling them to ship
their bullion from HALEY as the
nearest place. Heretofore the bullion
had to go clear through to Winnie
mucca before it got started on its way
to New York via San Francisco and
the Southern Pacific Railroad; but
even that was better than no facilities
at all.
Major Cavanah will leave for At
lanta tomorrow, and meet Ma or Pet
tit at Sawtooth, when both men will
visit some claims in Jake's gulch, and
return home.

quantity of ore in sight in both OF
these mines, and Of exceedingly high
grade.
The Lucky Boy, in Jake's gulch. is
also yielding some 400 to 5OO.ounce
ore, but only three men are employed
there. The ore-vein is about fourteen
inches wide and regular. 1t is owned
by w. d. Vernam, of the Columbia
and Beaver Company. The Wire
Silver, on the. same vein as the Lucky
Boy, but higher up the hill, is looking
very fine. The shaft is down 100
feet, and shows an ore streak
from two to six inches wide.
Two tons Of this ore are on the dunn.
which assays over $4,000 per ton.
This mine is owned by J. ID. Bergin,
Louis Hanson and S. ii. Wooster.
Two tons shipped last year averaged
100 ounces.
The Comstock lies parallel with the

The shaft is down 1870 feet, in a vein
three to four feet wide, which shows
ore all the way to the bottom, which
assays from $500 to $500. About
three tons of this ore is on the dump.
Nine tons shipped last year averaged
800 ounces at the Buffalo mill in At.

The Silver Bow is an extension of

an average width of iyht feet, and
shows ore along it's entire length of
