A contract has been let on the Wilson

Work on the Marsac mill is being

part of which will come from Chicago and
part from Salt Lake, has nearly all been
ordered, and unless some unforeseen OBJ
stacle arises, Mr. Joe Gallagher feels posi-

giving Day.
On Tuesday morning as drift was be-
ing run from the old shaft on the Bonanza,
only 25 feet from the surface, a vein OF
foot in width was cut which looks very
promising. No doubt has ever existed ID
| the minds of experienced men that
there was good ore in this property,
and this adds fresh confirmation to the
| belief.
A force of men are at work improving
| the grade of the Crescent tramway be-
tween the concentration and mine: The
curves are being eased and wldened
preparatory to laying heavier rails, sc
that the engine bought for the purpose
can be used to haul the cars up to the
mine. The first car load of rails for the
new track arrived last night.
Situated on Treasure Hill, adjoining
the city on the west, is the Creole lode, 8
large deposit of carbonates. The dlscov
erer and owner is D. T. Condor, who
since the discovery some four years age
has made all the developments almos
alone. This now consists of tunnel 15(
feet in length to tap the deposit and abou
$50 feet of workings on the vein. Two
raises of thirty feet each, at different
points, show the deposit to have thai
thickness at least. The ore is low grade
as yet, but by concentrating about fifty
ounces to the ton are obtained. He ships
in five and ten ton lots.

the Morgan group of mines, we learn the

double compartment shaft already having
been begun. This property is located be
tween the DAILY and the Anchor Mining
Company's ground, there being a Sigh
conflict between the Daily and this com
pany, which, however, will be amicably
settled. Mr.. Phillip Morgan will be fore
man.
