 The 249th dividend of the Idaho 1 filming Company, at Grass Valley, 'alitornia, was declared ou Monday. to S6 POO. No other mine n the Pacific coast, oi on the conti- lent, has ever paid as many dividends, nd but few gold mines have yielded as 'rge an amount of gold bullion, as its roduct has reached about Sli, 100000, which amount s4,S20,000 has been aid in dividends. The Reymert m,ne Is to be shut down l February. This property in Final ounty has been in charge for two ears past of Wallace Corbei [, formerly the Contention m.ne, and largs of money expended upon if. [ he cause of the suspension of ope ra- ions is due to the lack of water and 'amping machinery. But 20 stamps ave been at wSrk where there was afficient ore to keep so at work Is The mines of Lower California are c ot apparently diminishing in impor- Inoe, although the wild rush of few ears since has ceased. Some very ex- V 'nsive machinery is being placed there ] work the immense quartz iedges, but ,e days when nuggets as 'big as hens IL ygs" were picked up has pass ed away. |
