The interest IN mining stock dealing

papers make so mucn OF. a great many
people are investing small sums. ana d
few people are investing considerable
amounts. Those who invest small amounts
are scalping the market. Those who m
vest larger amounts generally act only
after a pretty careful investigation OF the

They are not investing in dividend PAYERS

they are choosing well located properties

Superintendent L. n. Smith of the
Geyser mine at Mercur, is in the city,
and tells a wonderful story of a. new
strike in this property, and of the
wealth of ore contained in the mine.
Go where you viii ON this property"
said he, land you will find ore. You
might make a survey of the mine, ver-
teal, horizontal, criss-cross and back
again, and almost every foot of the
ground would be milling ore that can
be mined as you would take coal out
of a coal bed
Mr.. Smith has BEEN working of late
in a drift on a vein underlying the sur
face ore bodies and after going a dis
lance of sixty or seventy feet, broke
into "a solid body of quartz that is much
richer in values than anything else ever
found in this magnificent property, and
Jas a. consequence the management is
much elated, for. seventeen months
ago, when the company took charge
of the property, it was believed that
the mine was good for $4,000 or $780,
600, but now it is estimated that there
is more than $1,000,000 worth OF ore
blocked out and in sight.
The average output of the GeySer
mill has been over fifty tons per day,
but in order to handle more eXpedl-
riOuSly the enormous ore DodleS expos
ed in. the mine, the company has de
.eided t. increase the capacity of the
lf1ill, ana with this end in view have
ordered a new Gates crusher, similar
to the one used in the Sunshine mill,
and VIII put in a larger elevator and
twelve more tanks. which will enable
them to handle at least $50 tons of ore
daily. The mill at the Geyser has been
running very steadily of late, and a
close down has not occurred for over
thirty days. AT the Geyser everything
is done automatically, and it is the
only producing mine in the vicinity of
Mercur that dumps it's ore from the
mine into the crusher. thus saving
hauling by teams or railroad.
Mr.. Smith has not BEEN sleeping
since he has taken charge of this
property, as the excellent condition of
the mine will testify, neither has he
been blind to his opportunities, as he
has secured a, bond and lease on the
South Geyser ground, the life of the
option being until November l, 1896.
This is a valuable piece of property,
and already several Salt Lake CAPT
talists are trying to figure themselves
81 on the deal.

The Silver King and Alliance Will
Swop Condolences.

Although the matter has been kept
very quiet. it leaked out yesterday
that something out of the ordinary
run of things was going on between
the Silver. King and Alliance mines
in Park City. A Herald representa-
tive took the trail and run it down
until it led him to the Alliance Of

Treweek was found and interviewed.

the Silver King people and the AL
lance have been in close conference

kWeen us. nor is there likely to be any.
Our workings are getting pretty close
together. being probably zoo feet
apart. To avoid any possible chance
for controversy as to boundary
lines the Silver King has asked the
privilege of surveying our under
ground workings, which was granted,
Esnd they have accorded the same

its survey of the underground work

REPORTS FROM THE DAGMAR.
Col. Ed. OsDonneII Returns from the
Scene of Action.

Colonel Ed. O'Donnell. who recently
went out to Eureka to examine the
reported strike on the Dagmar proper
ty. returned sunday night and says
that the reports have not been in the
least exaggerated. This property is
located about half mile north and
west of the keystone mine, and is
owned by S. r. Marks and others, as
stated in these columns a few days
ago A shaft was sunk on the claim
and ore encountered at a depth of 16
feet that asSayed $3.50 in gold, As
ounces silver and 80 per cent lead to
the ton. The shaft is now down II
feet and the ore body is gaining in
size and in values as work progresses.
However. the true ore body has not
yet been reached and the shaft has
been sunk in what now appears to be
a blowout. The formation is gray

old-timers who have visited the strike
affirm that it will develop into a mine
equal in productiveness and value to
any of the bonanzas for which Eu-
reka is so justly noted. The owners of
the Dagmar are building a shaft house
and are working two shifts of men
on the property. They have made

IMPORTANT PROJECT.
New Company Formed to Deve1-
OPP the Viking Ground

AS will be seen elsewhere in this is
sue, the Mercur Gold Dust Mining and
Milling company has filed it's articles
of incorporation
The ground on which the company
bases its incorporation comprises the
Viking group of thirteen claims in
Camp Floyd district, adjoining the no
ted Mercur mine. This property was
secured by General W. H. Penrose and
J. a. Street, who, in turn, interested
w. S. Mccormick, w. V. Rice, Josiah
Barnett and others with them in its
development. when the purchase price
was paid and the title vested in the new
corporation. The officers of the COM
pany are W. S. Mccormick, president;
w. H. Penrose, vice president, and j.
A. Street, secretary and treasurer, and
these, with j. A. Street, comprise the
board of directors. The company is
capitalized at 100000 shares of par
value of So each. Most of the individ-
Tal stock holdings have been pooled,
and but a limited amount of the treas
ury stock WIFI be offered for sale, and
this only through two official brokers.
The Gold Dust group is most favor
ably located, and o. A. Palmer, NJ. E.,
and Professor Raj Penrose, professor of
economic geology of the Chicago uni
versity, who have thoroughly examined
the property, state that without doubt
the group contains an extension of the
Mercur, Marion and Rover veins. EX-
terlsive development ON this group will
begin at once.

THE OUTLOOK FOR THE AJAX.
In Good Ground and Shares Worth
SD Each.

!
So Each.
II. M. Ryan, one of the stockholders
and directors of the Ajax property,
near the Mammoth. in the Tintic dis
trict has the following 10 say regard
ing this valuable property:
The Ajax is composed of three
CLAIMS. embracing what was formerly
known as the Champlain mine and
FRACTION and the ord CopperopoAs.
The deepest workings in the Ajax is
by means OF a 4S2-foot shaft When the
shaft has been driven fifty-five feet
about $50 feet, which will bring them
directly under the old workings of the
mine. When this is done and a small
amount of development work perform
ed at the face of the drift, which will
be necessary to make room for a
reasonable working force, the Ajax
will surprise those who are not we'll
Informed concerning this property, for
1t will then become one OF the largest
shippers of high grade ore in Utah.
More than a million dollars have been
paid to those who formerly operated
! this property, from the proceeds of
the mine. This was before the con-
solfdation of the Champlain and FNrac-
ton, and the Copperopolis. which con-
solidation was brought about by the
late legal contest, and at cost OF
many thousands Of dollars. The large
bodies of ore which paid this immense
sum was taken from the mine at
depth not exceeding $50 feet The
Mammoth, adjoining, is developed for
a depth Of 1,400 feet, finding its larg-
est ore bodies al that level. The de-
velopment of the Mammoth proves
that the Ajax will not lack for ore
WI dT-iI- M From
data secured and conservatively
figured, and taken in comparison with
the Mammoth and the former
production of the Ajax, and
the present condition of the
Ajax, we are satisfied that Ajax
stock is we'll worth SO a. share. Since
the consolidation the expenditures on
the property have been in the neigh
borhood of $4,000, nearly all of which
has been taken from the mine; yet
the management did not aim to ship
ore except when convenient to do so
while developing the property. We es-
ltimate that we have in and about the
mime about $4,000 tons of Second-clasS
ore, averaging SO. 80 in gold to the
ton. and carrying copper and silver to
the value of s.. However, the gold is
not found in quantities worth mention
ing in the ores that carry values IN
copper. the silver and copper ores be-
ing found in one portion of the mime,
and the gold and silver in the other.
Negotiations are pending at present
between the directors of the Ajax mine
and Mr.. Robinson of the Sioux Console
dated mill for tine sale of the Ajax
second-cIass ores. We have every rea-
SON to believe that the negotiations
will be successful upon the return of
Mr.. Robinson from the east, in which
event the Ajax company will be the
recipient of a large sum Of money, and
the treasury will be in such condi-
ton that the hearts of the stockholders
will be made glad.
