Solitude reigns in the sagebrush at
Diamond Basin, save only where jack
rabbit sits up on his launches and lis
tens or looks for the approach of a
hungry coyote. The vast amphitheatre
whore, upon the advent of better
weather, may, and probably will, be
seen the camp outfits OF hundreds of ca
ger seekers for glittering gems of purest
ray serene, is still locked in winters
cold embrace. Not so the field whore
the less valuable but more abundant
gems, the iridescent and fire flashing
opals are found. There everything be-
tokens the beginning of an active cam
paign. A city of tents and rude cabins
is growing and daily increasing in pop
ulation. In that embryo city roads are
being constructed and in the town ho-
tel has been built. The gems already
taken out have found admirers in al
most every city in the land. Their
beauty and value are now unquestioned.
Opal mining is an established and prof
table Owyhee county industry. Pros
pecting for diamonds and saphires will
be the occupation of many people as
soon as the weather permits.

Now that spring and summer will
soon be here and prospectors will be out
in the hills hopeful and busy in their
vocations, we wish to remind them that
they will always find tito their interest
to drop in on the NUGGET when they
come to town for supplies and let US
know what they are doing. ALI the rich
mineral deposits ia these mountains
have not been staked off yet, and the
discoveries of the present year may add
greatly to the known resources of old
districts. as we'll as adding new terri
tory never before successfully prospect
ed. We will have many visitors in the
county during the year in search of in
yestments, and among these will be
good number who will prefer to put a
little money ia a prospect and more in
proving that prospect to be mine, rath-
er than pay the estimated value OF
already developed. 1t will pay
prospectors to let it be generally known
what they are doing and what success
they are making. They should make no
which which will not be
borne out by an examination of their
claims. Getting people to come here by
disappearing matters is very short
zig hted policy and policy in which
1one need expect to be aided and
abetted by this paper. Come in and tell
IS facts and we will try to give them
circulation.

has steadily improved and widsnsd
down to the present depth of the winze

himself as very much encouraged at the
outlook for the Chautauqua mine, which
lies west Of the Manhattan.

Mr.. VIM. Rickenberg, who has bsen
superintendent of the mill since the
present company has been in charge,
and Mr.. D. w. Humphrey, who has had
charge Of tho tailings tables, have both
severed their connection with the COM
pany to devote their time to developing
thoir newly acquired claims on Succor
creek. Msssrs. H. B. Grumbling, the
artesian we'll borer, and Pat Strom bladt,
an employee in the mill, are in with the
former gentlemen in this now mining
enterprise. The ores on their claims
are rich in gold, but sulphurets and ar
senical iron in the ores may make it
necessary to chlorinate or roast them to
save the values. We have no doubt but
that the experience of Mr. Rick enberg
will enable him to devise practical
method of recovering a large percentage
of the values.

News came down here yesterday that
the people of Silver City were as wild
over strike made in the Ruth mine on
War Eagle, as Carter Harrison's friends
were in Chicago last Tuesday night. It
was reported here that four sacks of ore
had been taken out yesterday which
were estimated to be worth $4,000 per
sack. We telephoned up this morning
for particulars and received the follow
ing reply: fThe report is substantially
correct, although the value may be
overestimated. The vein is four feet
wide and athree to five inch streak ofthe
quartz is literally tied together with
wire gold. The whole width of the
vein, leaving out this rich streak, will
run $3.50 per TONI The Ruth, the prop
erty of the Ralph mining pool, of which
M. F. Leech is manager, has been
opened by a tunnel run on the vein
over 800 feet. The present rich strike
is nearly 200 feet directly under a rich
pocket out of which $4,000 were taken
in a few days, several years ago. This
vein crosses the famous Poorman at an
acute angle, and the present find is
about 1000 feet from the point where
they cross. 1t is in bunch of the rich
est properties on War Eagle.

In Difference TO the feelings of half a
dozen nice young men on the mountain
we are not going to copy, from the Nam
pa Leader, notice of the wedding of
our amiable and pretty Miss Jolie How
ard. Try and forget her, young gentle
men. She did wrong to remain here
whole year, making so many of you
learn to love her, and then slipping off
home, ostensibly on short visit, and
then marrying the other fellow. Well,
for her sake, we hope she has married
real nice man and will awavs be happy.

The Namps Leader says that the CO.
& |. Co.'S. covered coaches, running be-
tween that place, Silver City and Della
mar, have been made gaudy with new
coats of paint. Before asparagus and
spinach begin to grace the DeLamar
break fast tables we hope the snow will
be off the summit and Billy Mills and
Bob Ward will be riding clear through
on the big coaches. We are going to
have lots Of mining men in our camps
all summer and we want the fifty miles
of ride to be pleasant for them.

MINING NUGGETS.

| The excavation at the east end of the
DeLamar compapy's MILL for additional
pans and settlers, is now about COM
jpleted and men are driving tunnel
/ still further east from this place to a
point east of the assay and retort build
ing, in which to place the water wheel
which viii help to run the mill ma
chinery. The shaft from the water
wheel will be continuation of the main
driving shaft in the mill and 10th the
engine and the water power in the mill
can be used at the same time, or either
of them separately. The second ditch
below the water tank, is now being
cleared out and f1umed and will for the
present supply water for the wheel, Civ
ing about one hundred feet pressure.
Eventually the water from Louise creek,
which will give some eight hundred
feet pressure, will be brought in. This
will cut off the demand for wood for
several months in the year.
Messrs. Mick kleson & McElmesl, the
owners of the South Illinois Central on
War Eagle mountain, have brought
down to Silver City some large speci-
mems of very rich gold ore. About a
year ago thsy gave parties working
bond on their mine and had considera-
Bile work done on an adit tunnel run
ming some sixty seet below any former |
workings. Although crushing of ore
was taken out by the parties bonding,
quite sufficient to pay their outlay, they |
failed to take the property before their
option expired, last fall. The owners
have since continued the tunnel and |
the ore has been improving as they |
have gained depth. This mine is con-
.inuation south of the Illinois Central,
one of the famous Poorman group,
which lies nearly parallel with and
about one hundred feet east of the Poor
nan. A large amount of bullion has
3een produced by the north end Hi
nois Central and proving it up nearly
;wo thousand feet further south, and
much lower down the mountain, dem
'nstrates that this vein, which has,
wherever worked, been quite uniform
n value, will long continue an impor-
ant producer.
