a heavy weight, which would fall with
known force, was slowly lifted into the
air until at height OF about twenty-five
feet it suddenly dropped and struck the
steel terrific blow. 1t snapped like a

through the window Of neighboling

The Bedrock Democrat says: The
Tom Payne mine is about nine miles
northwest of Baker City and within
ono mile of the now famous Nelson
mine. 1t lies in the same mineral
belt and to the north of the Cracker
creek mines. Geo. l.. Hayes has for
eight years been working his property
in primitive manner. A month ago
Messrs. Young Il Harris secured
contract on the property and since
that time have had set of men
working under the supervision of
Thomas Bentley. The developments
have been of such a nature the gen.
tlemen have now decided to accept
the property. A l0-stamp mill, to
run by both steam and water power,
has been secured by the present
owners, and will be in running order
on the mine within twenty days. A
boarding house is also in course of
construction. There will be on the
payroll Of this company over twenty
men next week.
Almost within the confines of the
town of Sparta is located the Orc
Dell, a mine that gives great promise
as bullion producer, as it is soon to
pass into the hands of a wealthy
Kansas syndicate, and before snow
flies stamps will be dropping on Orc
Dell ore. The mill will be ten
stamps, with sufficient power to dou-
BILE the capacity, run saw and neces-
sary machinery for frst-class plant.
One great advantage to the camp
will be the custom department and
sanpling works, and all ore assaying
over 81 in free gold and sc in sui
