Minnesota. has just purchased the Birth
day group of mines there for $12. COO The
Checkmate mine owned by Salt Lake
and Ogden parties. is located IN Willow
Greek district, and as the ore brings over
$500 to the carload, it is evident that
these gentlemen made a good investment
when they took in this property.
The Sun. of Cheyenne, Wyoming, says:
The owners of the iron mines at Hart
vile, this county, have secured salts
factory freight rates from the railroads
and VIII at once commence shipments of
iron ore to Denver and Pueblo. This ore
Will be hauled by team form the mines
to Badger station on the Cheyenne &
Northern branch of the Denver & Gulf
a distance of thirty miles. The iron ore
is of such superior quality, that per-
manent market is expected as the result
of the present shipments.
The Ontarios long drain tunnel prom
ises to have beneficial effect on nearly
every property in the near vicinity Of
the Ontario group. IN fact, 1T will resolu-
tionize the method of mining in that
locality and will transform wet mines
into dry ones, to a large extent The
Old Hawkeye mine, which, with rich ore
bodies uncovered in its lower workings,
was drowned out before the completion
of this three-mile tunnel is now COM
paratively dry mine, and it is stated that
work in its development will be resumed
at an early date, II operations have not
already been begun.
A. P. Challis came down from his
Stanley Basin placer mines one day last
week. He made a good cleanup this
season. and Is now being recompensed for
the many years of toll that he has spent
in getting his claims in shape to work.
He has plenty of pay ground to operate
for a hundred years 10 some. Every one
is pleased with his prosperity. Although
engaged in gold mining and almost a
lifelong Republican, Mr.. Challis will
vote for Bryan and Sewall electors this
year. He wants to see America free from
the greed of the gold power again. We
are pleased to see the old-time Republic
cans cast party aside and vote prosperity.
Silver Messenger. Challis, Idaho.
Alex Dunphy, an old Occur d Alene
miner who has spent most CT this year in
the Boundary district and on the reser-
walton, is in town and speaks in very
glowing terms Of the future Of that coun-
try. Mr.. Dunphy says that as soon as
they have transportation in that district
it will rival Rossland and the SLOGAN. All
the mining experts who have been in
there have been favorably impressed and
more or less capital has been coming in
throughout the year. Everything Is
must be during the winter in any camp
that IS practically new and has not
transportation Some OF the claims on
Eagle hill are looking very fine at pres
ent and very likely two or three crews
will work in that locality during the
winter. Whites camp is showing up very
we'll The Washington claim is in about
125 feet with the ore looking very good.
Several claims will be worked in and
about this camp during the winter

Mr.. Alliene Case, superintendent Of the
Columbia Mining company, whose min
ing property is situated on Fruit creek,
in the Cable Cove district, says the Demo-
crat, of Baker City, Oregon, left the city
yesterday via the S. V. r. r. for the
mine. having received word from the
board of directors of his company to per-
feet arrangements at once for mill build
ing operations. Mr. Case on arrival at
the mine VIII at once let contracts for
lumber and work will virtually be COM
menced today.
The mill contract has been let to the
Gates company, CT Chicago, Illinois, and
the machinery is now en- route to Baker
City.
The mill to be erected at this time will
be of ten stamps capacity. In the spring
it is the intention Of the company to add
thirty stamps, making forty in all.
The Columbia is the property recently
purchased by eastern capitalists from
the Cable Bros. and is one of the great
properties OF the west. With large mill
ing capacity it will certainly prove to be
a great producer.

THE Anaeeana Deal.

The Anaconda mines have been sold
so often on paper in the past few years
that the press dispatches of last evening
his way to America to close the deal
caused little comment in Butte. Among
those supposed to be in the CONT
dence of Manager Marcus Daily, says
the Intermountain, the report that the
London Exploration company held an
option on the remaining shares of the
Anaconda company was not denied, but
the general expression was that the con-
trolling interest could not be secured for
pointed OUT that had it been the desire
of the American owners Of the controlling
interest to dispose of it, they would not
have gone to such an enormous expense in
making improvements during the past six
months.
There are others in Butte who are of
the opinion that the sale of the control
to the foreign syndicate would be de-
cided benefit to Butte They figure it
out that large share of the proceeds
derived from the sale will be relnvested
in Butte mines and that another big COM
pany would Immediately spring up,
which would include the Washoe, Cold
Hill. Odin, Poulin, Stella and other well
known copper properties which are now
fairly well developed and capable of be-
coming producers at short notice.
1t is an error to suppose that the Lon
don Exploration company, in which the
Rothschilds are largely interested, owns
the stock already disposed of. The stock
was placed on the market and has been
bought up by English investors, and the
Exploration people merely act as brokers
in the matter. 1t is said the stock is he'd
by about 5000 people.

Mining Notes and Personals.

The Humbug mine, which promises to
develop into one of the largest producers
in Tintic mining district. will have it's
first shipment of ore on the market to-
day, and the owners expect to ship five
carloads a week regularly hereafter.
From al reports the Humbug is "a gem
of purest ray serene"
Hon. j. f. Brown, of Kanab, who has
been in the city during the past few days
attending to political matters, is inter-
ested in the copper deposits discovered
last spring in the Buckeye mountains.
He states that the ore runs high in this
metal and also well in gold. and that they
will probably receive considerable atten-
ton the coming season.
The mines of Willow Creek, north of
Boise City. Idaho. continue to attract a
great deal of attention in mining circles,

THE THREE MILE MINES.
Crowther Bros. and HOuseiy Find
Good Gold and silver Ore.

Good Gold and silver Ore.
A short time ago an assay was made
on ore from the Housley mine near Three
Mile Creek 1t went $500 gold and $3.50
silver For several months, says the
Brigham City Bugler. Growther, Bros.
and Frank Housley of Three Nile have
been doing considerable prospecting on
the hills four miles southeast of Brig
ham. They have located seven good
claims. During these months form three
to five men have been working steadily
on the various claims, but SO far the
Housley is proving the best. 1t is up in
Three Mile Creek canyon about a mile
and a half. The tunnel is being dug in
the side of the hill that was recently
plowed out by the great reservoir flood.
Z. D. Crowther brought to The Bugler
office several good samples of ore taken
from this mine. They show pyrites of
iron and copper, traces of gold and sill
yer, with a good proportion of white
iron. The owners are quite encouraged
over the prospects.
Near by they have also located a big
deposit of graphite. The samples sent
10 Boston showed 1715 per cent pure
graphite. If a little richer. this find
would prove a bonanza. Developments
may so result.

THE GARFIELD MINE.
What n Miner Says About the Big
Tunnel Mines.

runner MtneSs
One day this week, says the Brig
ham City Bugler, a reporter inter-
viewed a miner who has in the past
few years done considerable work in
the neighborhood of the old Garfield
mine, or Consolidated Mining and Mill
ing company's great 2,200-foot tunnel.
The man is in no way interested in
these mines. and we asked him for a
candid opinion Of their real worth.
His reply was in substance: Yes, l am
satisfied Baker & Co. have a good
thing. 1 have been up to their mine,
but was never allowed hardly to look
in, excepting once, when I saw down
the big tunnel sacks of ore standing
thick all along as far as my eye could
reach. l have seen good ore from this
tunnel. / know one thing, that an ad-
jacent mine that they recently bought
in, has produced ore that assayed
over $500 TO the ton. I know that.
The company has recently let con-
tract for a tramway that is to cost in
the neighborhood of $4,000.

w. a. CLAaK's BONANZA.
Probably the Greatest Gold Mine in
the World.

the World.
If the reports received from the May
flower mine near Whitehall are true,
says the Butte er-Mountain-and they
are apparently from a thoroughly reliable
source-W. A. Clark has probably the
greatest gold mine IN the world. The re-
port reached Butte last Sunday that the
ore body had been struck in the May
flower tunnel, but it was impossible to
secure confirmation OF the report until
today. The tunnel taps the ore |)dy only
sixty feet from the bottom OF the big
cut from which ore is now being sacked,
but sixty feet means & whole lot more
money than most people will believe I'M
less they have visited the mine in person
and seen the quality and extent OF the
big pocket or vein. 1t has been learned
that the ore in the tunnel IS Of the same
character as that above and equally as
rich. Superintendent Donald ellis, who
has had charge Of the operations at the
mine since its purchase by Mr.. Clark,
will not let even his closest personal
friends visit the tunnel unless accom-
panied by some one higher in authority,
and the mouth of 1t is guarded by day
and night. If it should be shown later
that 1t is only pocket of ore, as many
mining men believe, 1t VIII go down IN
mining history as the biggest and richest
pocket of gold ore ever discovered. An
assay of the ore struck in the tunnel
went 10 ounces in gold to the ton.
In view Of the fact that hundreds OF
men are pouring into that section 1t
would not be inappropriate TO remark at
this time that the only rich ore body
found there yet is that at the Mayfiower,
in which only four men are employed in
the open cut and two at the tunnel. The
magnitude and richness of the ore body
and the ease with which it can be mined
may be judged from the fact that four
miners have taken out 100000 worth of
ore in one month. The place is one
which no seeker for work need visit and
at present 1t offers little for the pros
pector, for every claim within a radius
of ten miles of the Mayfiower is staked-
sometimes two or three times over.

Further Details of the Explosion Mt
Buluyyayo.


Buluyvayo.~-
LONDON, Oct. A dispatch to the
Central News from Buluwayo gives
further details Of the explosion which
occurred in that town yesterday, re-
sulting in loss of life and extensive
damage to property. The magazine
which exploded was located on the out
skirts of the town. The greater part
of the explosives in the building was
intended for use in mining operations
and consisted of eighty cases of blast
ing gelatine, 725 cases of dynamite
and 1900 boxes of dynamite.
The wreckage caused by the explo-
sion is immense. The first reports of
the loss of life were exaggerated. It
is known now that only one white
man and nine blacks were killed. The
total number of injured is thirty-two.
A large number of horses and mules
were killed.
