 Charles M Clark and Mir. Hosier visited the Black Horse mine yester- day. and were delighted with what they saw there. They brought in large specimen Of rock from which wire silver glistens on all sides. and MT. Clark says they have ihis quality Of ore for thirty inches solid in the mine The very brief history oi this property is another illustration of the possibiii- ties of our mining resources, The for mer owners of the property sunk shaft sixty feet deep. from which they took out coz rsiierablo skipping ore. For some caasGor other they stopped work and allowed the shaft to i'll up with water. Mf Boa1 hearing of what had been taken from it. concluded to lock at the property with view oi pur- chasing. He pumped the water from 1t, and procuring samples from the pot tom of the shaft, made safe of the property ioi 6 300 F. l.. Carlisle sub came out and sta ted sinking the shalt deeper This was only little over one month ago. At seventy feet deep this quality of ore was struck and has remained solid for Eixpaen feet, the shaft now being eighty-six feet deep. A ton of ore can be asserted from the dump which would more than pay for the original purchase price ef the mine, while Mr. Clark gays it vii average frsm si.oo0 to $500 per ton clear acrsss the ledge. The ore resembles that of the famous Silver King mine in Final county.
