SOUTHERN MINING NEWS.
Operations Again Becoming Active
in Beayer County.

Reaver Utonian-The Hoosier Boy, a
patented mine. has in times past been
a. heavy producer of silver and lead
bearing ores. The last carload, shipped
in September last, went 81 per cent lead
and so ounces silver. ?. S. Martin, of
Milford, who is the owner. is at work
on this property Strengthening up the
shaft, and doing other work prepara-
tory to making further developments.
James Lavelle and others are work
ing on the Bu5khorn. an old producer.
This mine is not far from Milford.
O. D. Clark and James Barrett are
still digging away in the Monitor at
South Camp, some few miles south of
Milford. There is quite lot Of ore on
the dump. and the grade is very en-
couraging.
At present there are only three men
working on the Mammoth, which lies
between Milford, and Frisco; the pro
perry is ownsd by Cullen, Ryan and
Thompson. but Messrs. Kelley, Mchen-
non and Lewis have a lease on II. They
are meeting with some success.

ing on copper prospects with coasi4erd-
bic success, in the foothills, Star dis
trict. Good prospects for rich strikes
Of copper have been made.
John Forgie has just shipped his

ington smelter, Of which John Williams
is manager This is proving to be a
somewhat lucrative business for Mr..
Forgie, which we are Pleased to note,
! for John has been a hard worker among
the hills for many years past, and his
friends will be pleased to learn that he

I least in small way.
Under the law of July Is, 1894, ex-

from forfeiture from non performance
of the 500 labor on Improvements re.

were filed upon in the Newton Mining
district.
Work is actively progressing on the

in the near future. The bottom of the
shaft is now in fine looking ore.
The Finiays have resumed operation
on the Horseshoe, and are pushing the
shaft downward as fast as possible.
Other claim owners are preparing to
resume work at an early date, and
there will undoubtedly be considerable
activity in this camp before spring.

FURNACE BLOWN IN.
SmeItersof the hex Syndicate Has
Commenced Operations.

At the general offices Of the hex
syndicate a dispatch was yesterday
afternoon received from General Man
ager Williams conveying the intelli-
gence that the great furnace at the
bennington plant of the syndicate had
just been blown in and was doing
splendid work. This was extremely
pleasing news to the members OF the
syndicate who are in the city and will
be received with great pleasure by
every citizen who * interested in the
future welfare of the territory. The
bennington smtlter will treat all of
the ores from the mines of the Detroit
district. which have long needed just
such an enterprise to make their full
value known. but was more specially
erected for the purpose of reducing the
output Of The IbeX and Charmed and
the other properties of the hex group.
For some days past Manager Williams
has been at bennington getting things
into shape for operation and yesterday
afternoon everything was in readiness
for the turning in of the water over
The turbines which are to furnish all
of the power necessary for the sue
cessful operation of all of the works
With the raising of the gates and the
consequent rush of water down the
penstock the turbines began TO Tevolve
and give power to the drivers of the
blowers and other machinery of the
plant Then came the blowing in Of
the 100 Ton furnace and the reduction
OF ores commenced and will be con-
Iinued without q break, unless some
unforeseen event should neceSSitate a
change in the programme. The recent
steady delivery at the plant of ores
and fiuXes from the properties OF the
syndicate. and the purchase of five or
SIX carloads of concentrates from the
Horn Silver assures q sufficient stock
of reduction material and the success
of the enterprise, which means 50
much for the southern central section
OF the territory.
For the present the smelter will
daily but it is anticipated that within
q. comparatively short time additional
furnaces viii be put in. This enlarge
ment Will take place as the receipts
OF ore require. BY reason of a traffic
arrangement the works will receive
Unite ores as cheaply as can the Salt
Lake valley SmelteTS and already the
IbeS people are reaching out for 1896
ore and concentrate contracts from
that district. Some time ago it Sc
cured the control of the Sunbeam
group and IS now working the proper
ties TO their fullest capacity. On &C.
count OF the Siiicious mature of the
greater portion of the Detroit distlTcl
ores il is very necessary that the smell
ter should be fairly well stocked with
lead ores, and for this reason the Horn
Silver concentrates were stopped off
lnere on their way north.
