The following is also taken from the

to the groom's parents:
Away up In the Panamint mountains.
surrounded on one side by dreary
waste of alkali and sand and on the other
by the rugged hills Of La Panza. there
isa woman miner. She is perhaps the
only one of her sex In the west that has
engaged in practical mining for living,
and no similar case is recalled in any
other part OF the country. This woman.

more modest, refined or caltured woman
IS hard to fad.
( That woman is the wife of DR.. c. Il.
Garrlsoa. formerly of this city. To her
! love For adventure, 10 her perseverance
and aptuess as a mineralogist the new
mines IN the Panamut range owe their
discovery and development 10 large
extent. For 80 or 60 miles about the
new mines there is scarcely II map,
much less a woman, and only now and
then, with tie melting of the SNOW, does
auyone frcn the outside ever reach the
new camp.
Mrs. Garrison is the heroine OF the
camp, aud more indefatigaba worker
would b. hard to find.
While the mines have only recently
boon discovered they are already pam
ming out well. Mrs. Garrison has two or
three claims, and her husband has
several more. II. H. Benedict, l.. 5.
Ross and J. Rice. all OF this city,
have numerous claims. which they say
are worth many thousands OF dollars.
The mines are rich in quartz that carries
gold in large quantities. Assays show
that it runs from $50 to Si,S00 por ton.
A Mexican known only as John" was
recently offered Sl2, 900 for gold claim
that has been quietly worked long
enough to bring out i:s value.
Mr.. l.. S. Ross. who is a friend of j.
q. Rice, at Ill West Second street. has
Just returned from the mines, where he
went two months ago, before the snow
became 30 feet deep in the mountains.
His long absence was noted in The
Herald few day $ ago. He expects to
return to the mines early next week.
The mines are located said Mr..
Ross to reporter for The Herald last
night, "in La Panza mountains. be-
tween the Slate and Panamint ranges.
We go by the way Of Mojave to Red
Rock, and from the latter mines it is
exactly fifty miles to the new La Panza
djggings. When you get there you are
exactly 5000 feet abeye sea level.
"At this season, Of course, snow is oD
the gronnd. but there has been little
hindrance to work on that account.
The principle trouble is the snow block
ing the way cut. lD a few weeks we
anticipate fine weather ont here, and
then you will hear Of some work.
'You want to know Of the woman
miner. eh? Well, Mrs. Garrison and
Mr.. Garrison say that as soon as the
weather breaks they will erect a teE-
stamp mill. They are jubiant over the
prospects and are going to stick by their
claims. Mrs Garrison has the honor OF
finding a mine which looks as though 1t |
will bring her fortune. The rock
shows free gold IN big Jumps, and tho
whole country seems TO be full OF such |
lodges.
Development Is all the new mires |
need. Mexicans have been quietly |
working arastres IN the canon for
mentIis with good success, aud one or |
two of them have made considerable
money. Unlike Goler and Red Rock.
there has been but little placer gold
found. but nearly every ledge carries
gold in big quantities. Iiasper canon,
as the place is called where the mines
are located. promises to be as famous
ana much mole lasting, than any OF the
other diggings discovered OF recent
years"
. Unlike Red Rock and Goler, there are
no promises that La Panzs Is born To
