So Louis and Eastern Capitalists
fnvest In Baker County dimes.


Invest in fseker Conoty dimes.
The following account, taken from the
st. Louis Globe.Democrat Of the 25th
ult., refers to the celebrated Cracker
creek property Of Knowles & Bourne.
1t is situated twenty.eight miles south.
east Of Baker City. Verify, our mining
interests are looming up in great shape:
" Probably the biggest mining deal
ever known, and certainly the largest
known in this country, was consum.
mated yesterday by st. Louis and
Eastern syndicate Of capitalists Negotia.
tions for the property have been going
on for considerable length OF
time, the report made by those
sent to examine it having been so big
that those considering the proposition
were slow to act. Mr.. L. p. Cowen was
recently sent to make the fourth exam.
instion and report the property, and he
was, II anything, more enthusiastic than
those who had preceded him. This sat.
isfied the syndicate and the purchase
was made. The property consists Of two
kblu ttdlAiS IN EDUhLNg OfGkDut
named the Eureka and Excelsior. The
claims are on either side OF a guch ;and are
each 1900 feet in length. They contain
true tissure vein Of four to five feet OF
high grade ore throughout their entire
length, and sixty.f foot vein Of $50 ore.
The firstclass ore runs as high as $3.50
to 5000 a ton. A tunnel has been run for
some distance in each claim, and are in
ore all the way. Sufficient ore is al.
ready on the dump to net several thous.
and dollars, and from the explorations
aud calculations OF those who examined
the property, the purchasers count on
having countless thousands practically
in sight, and do not hesitate to say that
they have by far the largest gold pro
perty in the United States. . IL is worth
the attention Of the government was
the remark made by one Of the syndicate
yesterday. All those interested are slow
to say anything about the property, pre-.
ierring to wait until their expectations
have been realized, at least to some ex-
tent. The purchase price was kept secret,
but it was said that the original holders
would realize upwards of $1,000, 600.
The st. Louis end Of the syndicate will
have control and c. NJ. Donaldson, now
manager of the Small Hopes, will be sent
out TO look after the new bonanza. The
company will be organized shortly aud
will be known as the "Oregon Mining
Company" The property's only draw.
back is its location, which is in an al.
most unknown territory and cut off at
present from any railroad. A road is ex.
nectcd. however, TO be built TO within a
few miles Of it very soon. The company
will put up l00-stamp mill, and the
water supply being ample and continuous
no trouble is anticipated. One of the
experts who examined the property pro-
phesied a monthly output of $500, 900,
which would rival the celebrated Austria
liam gold mines. A large quantity OF the
ore has been received here, and those
who know consider il TO be a very fine
character. Baker City Oregon Blade.

Nevada Horses.

Nevada is fast making her mark as
a producer OF fine horses. The horses
now being reared in the State are ami
mails OF the best blood, and being
grown on a plateau, the elevation of
which is nearly 5000 feet above the
level OF the sea, they have broad
chests, big lungs and great powers Of
endurance. They are also well mus
cled and sinewy. This year we hear
of many droves of fine animals being
shipped both east and west from our
mountain pastures. For some time
past many carloads have gone to Cali
iornia each week. Both there and in
the East Nevada horses are making a
name for themselves Gazette.

There were about it a swarm Of flies,

made the fly bold, and he seems unable
to understand what a foreigner means

too, remarkably prehensile claws, and
keeps them keen and sharp when taking
constitutional walks over European coun-
tenances. IL was probably the knowl-
