M. w. Neff is short of water at Han
over, but when the furnace is run, about
5000 pounds Of bar copper is taken out
daily. The product is of a fine grade,
equal to that from the Lake Superior re

cess and as soon as sufficient of water
can be obtained, Mr.. Nef will give en-
ployment to number Of miners.-Silyer

Hillsboro note : The Mamie Richmond, a
steady producer Of high grade ore, has been
recently sold for $1,000 to Chicago parties
and will now be more extensively devel-
oped, and they expect to put in mill OF
their own. The Bonanza and Hope
mines are working all the men on their
mines that the can conveniently. They
are working their ore at their own mill,
two miles from Hillsborough, liye-foot
Huntington mill and concentrator, capa-
city twenty tons in twenty -four hours.
Word has reached here from Kingston
that the vein which was the source OF the
rich float found on the Solitaire mining
claim has at last been found. Nine years
ago prospector discovered a lot of ore on
the surface Of this claim which was nearly
solid silver, and $50, 900 was picked up in
one week, but all efforts to discover the
vein proved futile until now a miner
named Edward Coffey has opened a true
fissure vein of sulphide of silver near this
property which shows the richest ore ever
produced in the camp, and it is thought
to be the feeder" which furnished the
Solitaire ore. Fabulous stories are told OF
the value Of the ore in sight.
Grant county miners: The Key is
again in trouble with bad air. Over
thirty men were laid off this week. The
falling weather is considered responsible
for the bad air. The blower is not equal
to the emergency. The mill is still run
ming. Adam Hugg has sold his interest
in the Consolidated mining claim on the
Queen lode to John E. Eberle, for 81, 900.
This will put stop to litigation about
the claim. There was conflict OF title
between the parties to the sale. f. Cos
grove and D. R. Brownel have pur-
chased a one-third interest in the Cham
pion, of Silver creek, adjoining the Little
Fanny and on the same lead, from Mr..
Clop' G. A. r. Enca%pmassnff:4 miS fas r. 500.
