for the present the sending of any re-

say this spontaneous manifestation OF

own, there being two arrastras at
work, and ore is being shipped to the

a profit. In fact every one is quite
encouraged with the outlook for the
Spring, and the fact that most of
the mines produce ore which works
from $15 to $50 per ton gold and

L. J. Hanchett, who has charge Of

From Mr.. Hanchett we learn that
Mr.. Salkeld, the millman, Inspected
the mill at the Peak. His report
was that a new mill must be built,
with the exception of the engine and
mortars, which are in good condition.
The new mill will contain 30 stamps
to begin with, but as soon as the
weather permits, the forty stamps
now at Gold Mountain will be added
to the Peak mill, making 20 stamps
in all. Mr.. Hanchett expects the
mill to start up about May 1st.
Two steam traction wagons will be
put on, one (of 100 tons capacity to
haul ore from the mines to the mill,
and the other for general freighting
purposes, and to haul freight from
the most convenient railroad station.
We understand from other sources
that sale of the property is an ac-
complished fact and that the first pay
ment of 800, 900 has been made. The
purchase price is $500, 900, to be paid
in five yearly installments. Mr.
