MINING MATTERS.
The Development and PROGRESS
Made During the Past Week.
Resume of the Mines.

growth of Our city has been marked:
every business interest has been aug
mented; promising mines have been
developed; costly mills erected, and
su; stantial business blocks of brick
have taken the place of tue old un-
slightly frames. The cause OF this is
evident. 1t is due to the continued
prosperity of our mines. The follow
ing is a resume Of the developments
during the week past.
CLARK's loLusA.
The vein has been cut in the cross
cut north from the 100 foot station.
The ore improves as the development
progresses. They are still sinking
the shaft as rapidly as possible with
three eight hour shifts at work. In
the drift from the Old discovery shaft
the ore is still being taken out, and
during the past week six car loads of
first and second-class ore were
shipped. The irst-class ore went
63.9 per cent. copper aud the second
class 1868 per cent.
THE MoULTON.
Stopping On the 400 foot level still
continues. The Slopes in the 200 foot
level on the center vein are looking
we'll. Work is also progressing in
the 500 foot Slopes.
NEPTUNE.
The levels in the old Shaft are being
run east and west aud the east one
continues we'll. In the drift being
run west from the new west shalt is
a very fine grade of ore, the vein
being about three feet wide. This
ore runs about l5O ounces in silver
and $50 in gold. A large amount of
ore is being taken out.
THE POLLACK.
The tunnel on the north which
was in $50 feet last week is being
pushed ahead in a body Of first class
ore, principally pyrargerite. OF this
| ore about four tons day are being
taken out. This mine promises to
be fine piece of properly. Eight
hour shifts are being constantly em-
ployed.
THE GOLD FLINT.
This property, which vas but re-
Gently p released by VIM. A Clark.
is abou, two miles west of the Moul-
ton, and is tine outlying mine west
ward on this mineral belt. Drifting
is being done east and west on the
east shaft at depth OF to feet with
good prospects. Fifty tons of ore
haye just been hailec to the mill
from this mine. The ore is of high
grade character and the mine prom
ises well for the future.
TIE ALICE.
Day before yesterday the contract
was let to drift 100 feet on the 500
foot level from the bottom of the
wlnze. In other respects the devt'-
opnent does not diiter materially
from our last report, except that tie
mine is looking much better than
last month. The nec ssary stoppages
during the month will aggregate -
hours in the big mill and % hours in
the little mill. This company dis
bursed $il 500 during the past month,
the product for the month being
$lo5, $50 SO assay value. The amalga-
nations for the month average $3.50
per cent. and the chloriuat.ons 81 OF
per cent.
SHONBAK.
The 3O0-fOot level is still beingex-
tended east and stopping is still being
done. The usual amount Of ore is
being taken out. This mine is look
ing very well, and i, an excellent
piece of property.
The work of development on this
mine is progressing favorabIy. They
are driving west Oh the 4o0-fUOt level
to strike the body of ore which was
in the 3O,j-foot in the old workings.
1t is expected that ii will be encuun-
tered soon. The 4gO foot extends 10
feet to the east and 100 feet to the
west. There are two raises in the
and
lively. About 20 men are Low at
work in the mine.
1t is estimated that the quarter sec
lion of land upon which tie c,l itol
is located at Bismarck will sell Tor
$500, ,OO. At al auction sale of lois
on the 22d o; last month, nearly SIS
900 was realized the first day from
the sale of t;3 lots. They would have
sold for great deal, but the late de-
cison Of Judge Edgerton AS to the
validity OF the location Of the capital
makes men OF money shy about in-
vesting in Bismarck real estate.
