THE VICTOR ENTERPRISE.
Tha Victor dam enterprise which has
been in tho background for several
onths, since the withdrawal of General
Howard and his brother, is once more to
the front, and the plan of development
has been somewhat changed, but the same
results ultimately are in view.
H. B. Sweet and Attorney Pollard of
Los Angelo were in the city yesterday.
and along with thel ocal promoters, were
busy on plans ana making arrangements
for the prosecution OF the work. But the
method of financing the company is diff
ferent from the one originally intended.
1t had been the effort to build the en-
terprlse for large sum and thus incur
ami nds btedness which )uld be drawing
interest long before there were any returns
from water sold. The plan as now
agreed upon is to begin on a somewhat
smaller scale and increase as there is
demand for water.
The dam at the Victor narrows will ba
but twenty feet high in the beginning,
but its depth and breadth will bs Of such
dim-nsions that it may be gradually
built up to the full height originally IN
tended and Impound enough water to ir-
rigate 900, 0O0 acres.
From the twenty-foot dam water can be
led out by bitches TO the broad acres be-
low and to the northwest OF Victor, and
as the demand for water becomes greater
bv the settl 'ment of the lands, the enter
Prise will be increase 10 dimensions upon
which it was originally planned. Work
is to be commeucei INN ediately and
pushed during the winter.
BOUND FOR THE MINES.
Joseph Ingefsoll left today for the
Gypsy mine in the Virginia Dale district,
near Twenty Palms. in charge of an
outfit with which it is proposed to do
some extensive work on the mine during
thu winter. His supply train consisted
Of three wagons, with twelve horses and
sixteen men and in addition to machin.
cry and camp equipage. they carried
supplies for two months for the whole
force.
The Gypsy mine is one of the mines in
the Virginia Dale district which is eX-
pected to be "a steady producer. The ore
IL easily handled, and runs fro:: $40 to
Sl2N per ton in free gold. The mine has
already been worked to limited eXteLt
and the owners have had one-stamp
mill run by a gasoline engine at the mine
since last spring. The mill will be added
to and its capacity increased during the
winter.
The mine is owned by Joseph Ingersoll,
+. I. Essler and i. b. Lyons, and the
development thus far made justified the
unbounded confluence which they have
in the futurp of the property.
