The reported sale of ground reported by
Judge Henry Shields, located adjoining
Bald Eagle group, east of the Ontario,
calls attention to the group of twelve
claims owned by Chris Schlagle and c..
{. Whitehead. The. group lies a short
distance north and east of the ground re-
ported sold, and on the line of the On
JarIo tunnel, and is, in the judgment of
many well posted miners, a most valua-
BILE group, and would be d good PROPOSE
ton for some man with money back of
him to take hold Of The ground has been
devloped to a considerable extent by
means of a tunnel and shaft, and shows
a strong vein of low grade mineral, which
with depth should develop into pay rock

Mr. c. Lowe, who is experimenting the
removal of the Glencoe concentration, is
making rapid progress, and much of the

A great many miners. and claim owners
are under the impression that assess
ment work must be done before Oct. / OF
this year, but the idea is a mistake A
bill was introduced in Congress to change
the date of assessment work from Jan.
10 Oct. l. but 81 did. not become a law,
hence the old law still holds good. How
ever, claim owners should take due no
tice that assessment work will have to
be done for the present yeer of 1895, and
the sooner it is done the better.
Brig Snyder returned Friday afternoon
of last week from a brief visit TO the
mine being worked by his brother, Gree
lev. in the mountains north OF Ogden. He
brought back with him some samples of
splendid ore now being taken out. The
ore carries copper, silver and lead, and
will undoubtedly run high. Brig says the
-~Nein, where cut, is fully seven inches and
is loaded from wall to wall. In this camp
such vein would be a paying PROPOSE

thinks will pay a small profit even from

Last week the Record mentioned the
fact that Jack Green had affirmed that
Bald Mountain would one day prove II
self to be the mother of Park City's min
eral belt. and in support of that asser-
ton it has this week to announce that
Billy Thomas, who has been working a
group of claims on that mountain for
some time has cut a vein of as nice chic
ride ore as was ever uncovered in this
camp We have not as yet examined the
find personally, but give the news simply
as we got it from a friend who is both
truthful and conservative. Once a rich
mine is uncovered on that hill the future
of Park City is assured for generations
The Daly-West mine is rapidly coming

The next three months. The fact that the
company is advertising for bids on a
contract 10 haul the company ore down
and freight and supplies up, is evidence
that the company propose to rot only
ship a large tonnage Of concentrates, bur
also proposes to soon begin breaking and
shipping first-class ore, large amount
OF which is already stored in its ore bins.
The Daly-Nest has been developed very
quietly, and it is today much bigger
mine than the majority of Parkites have
any idea
