Fenner, $3.50: Needles, $l.25; Powell

NJ. w. Harvey and Jack Thomas have
commAnGad work on an old claim IN
Cedar, sevsn miles from Gatewood's,
which was once operated by millionaire
Dick Gird, In days when a sack Of -four
and rasher Of bacon was considered high
living. They have taken some very fat
tering samples from this claim and think
they can make It pay though, they hsvs
to haul water seven miles.
At the sampling Works during the past
week the following lots have been run:
Six carloads Of the G. o. d. have been
shipped and four more await working,
nearly all the output Of that mine last
month American Flag, small lot; hsr-
ris & Robinson, lessees c. o. D., small
lot high grade ore. The strike stopped
the shipments Of ore, but the ores accu-
mulated are being loaded as fast as cars
can be procured.
Supt. Bowers, Of the Nighthawk mine,
will soon leave for California to confer
with his co-owners In regard TO erecting
machinery on this mine. The water has
not increased with the depth Of the mine
but the distance it has to be raised makes
It impossible to sink deeper without
steam. The north and south drifts from
the bottom Of the north Wine have been
driven 50 feet each and both are and
have been in fine ore, and the amount OF
high grade ore at present in sight will re-
auire about two months to stope out.
All indications point that these drifts
have tapped the spex Of the largest and
richest body Of ore yet encountered In
