DEXTER GOLD MINING co.
Salt Lakers Interested in an Old
Time Producer

1lne PrOHucer.
One of the latest candidates for
public favor in mining circles, incorpor-
porated IN March, 1896, under our state
laws, is the Dexter Gold Mining com
pany. Although so young to Utah.
still this property has paid large divi-
dends, S1O5,0O0 having, through the pre-
decessor's corporation reached the
stockholders with no knowledge of the
amounts covered into the pockets of
the managing stockholders, which
never saw the corporate books. Truth
is stranger than fiction, and the truth
as to Dexter is d story worthy some
novelist Of the present day.
John Hubbard, early in 1866. left his
New England home and, with Hon.
Thomas McGovern, a distinguished
Nevada statesman, located the Dexter
part of the surface ground of which
is covered by the town of Tuscorora,
New.
Reverses of various kinds came to
McGovern, and his interest was lost
to him. John Hubbard battled on. and
in 1889 made the first strike that gave
clew as to the richness Of the Dex-
ter AS soon as he made this discov-
cry, litigation was forced upon him,
and he was sought by designing men,
and through powers of attorney grant
ed the designers sought to take from
him the valua bic property On Jan
uary 9, 1880, John Hubbard turned his
face to the wall and expired The
worry of a lawsuit, coupled with a
weakened constitution and intellect,
were too much for him, and he never
lived to realize the greatness of the
property which his knowledge fore
sight and industry had partially de-
veloped.
Death having forever closed his
mouth, the designing men whom he
trusted, sought to retain the shares Of
the corporation formed from his law,
full heirs, and add to their own wealth
from the property of their principal.
Through the efforts of Hon. Thomas
McGovern the value of the property
was brought to the attention of the
heirs of John Hubbard in New Eng
land. Representatives came to Salt
Lake from New England and employed
Booth, Lee & Gray of this city to fer
ret out the matter and recover the

THE BLUE BELL DISTRICT.
Strong Lodges and Very Promising
Surface Indications.

Strong Lodges and Very Promising
Surface Indications.
Considerable attention at the present
time is being given to the Blue Bel
mining district, in the southeast cor
ner of Tooele county, six or seven
miles from Dorernus, on the Tint1c
branch of the Tintic railroad.
! 1t was while prospecting in this dis
| trict that the late Judge Barbee
passed over the range,'s and his last
letter, published exclusively in The
Herald, contained an excellent de-
scription of this new mining district,
which is said to be rich in surface in
dications, the ledge being strong and
well-defned in contact between slate
and lime, quartzite and porphyry, the
matrix being liver iron and quartz.
The veins, which pitch to the east
and run in northerly and southerly
direction, give values from trace up
to SIS or 81, and at a depth of a few
feet the quality of the ore increases in
most satisfactory manner, giving
promise of great wealth as sinking
progresses.
James A Adams of this city is the
owner of six claims in Blue Bell dis
trict, which are in the near neighbour
hood of or adjoining the locations
made by Judge Barbee for himself, E.
G. Rognon and Captain Snyder, be-
sides which he owns an interest in five
claims with Will Murphy and Bert
Brown.
At his rooms at the Walker House
Mr. Adams has some fine specimens OF
ore from his locations in Blue Bell dis
trict The quartz looks lovely, while the
iron gauge indicates the strength of
the ledge. On the Marguerite, Mr.. Adj
ans has a prospect hole about four
feet deep, the ledge being all of seven
feet wide and the vein walls ON each
side being slate. AT the surface the
rock gave little more than trace in
gold but at four feet assays OF $b2 IN
the yellow metal were obtained, Whlle
picked pieces went as high as s251.30.
According to Mr.. Adams, encourag-
ing assays can be obtained on surface
rock throughout the district, and as old
miners state that the formation Is
most excellent for heavy deposits of
mineral. it is believed that with work
a number of producing and paying
mines will be opened up there.
Blue Bell district is we'll watered,
wood for fuel is plentiful and it is easy
of access.
From now on it is expected that this
district will cut no unimportant figure
in the mining history of Utah, as peo-
pie are beginning to flock into that re-
gion from all directions. Even now
considerable development work is go
ing on there, and before the summer
is over it would surprise no one to near
that in Blue Bell a big gold mine had
heen added to Utah's list of bonanza
producers.

men are too deeply absorbed In the
cakes and pies of this life to take any
interest in higher things. And when
Miss Hope says, pertly. her papa lis
not the only one to get left, anyho~,"
she is sternly ordered from the table
as user of slang.
"And remember, miss, IL / ever hear
you use again word of slang, the apple
tree will come into use. Where that
child gets her wretched habit of slang
do not know. But, come to think, the
English are strongly addicted to it, and
jeremiah, being of English parentage,
Hope gets the vulgar propensity from
them"
Again let me ask you not to mistake
my friend, Mehitable, a kindly-natured,
bright-minded, lofty-principled woman
when the cake is well-behaved and the
meat will roast itse.t, whether the fire
is forgotten or not.
Well, learned or, rather, empha-
sized what 1 had already learned, this
truth: A spinster, single, is a spinster,
married. Is it wrong Tor these inde-
pendent, strongly individual women to
marry? Ask jeremiah!
Few men are long happy so trained
and throttled and weighted by vine
that they cease to try to lift themselves
to a more inspiring atmosphere, and so
remain nothing greater than poles to
hold vines; and it is only the most
brutal part of humanity, just one re-
move from the apish ancestor, who can
enjoy wife of the door-mat species,
only fitted for the daily mud and wear
and tear of earth-lives.
Now, Mehitable, standing on her own
roots so sturdily, is gradually, as the
years go by, leaning her wealth of TO-
liage nearer to the partner of her life,
who stands somewhat sturdily, too, and
the little sapling of Hope between them
makes them look, in the distance-per-
haps from the "Other Side"-like one
growth. Indeed, / fancy the figures Of
the clinging vine and sturdy oak as
types of womanly and manly strength
are scarcely suited to these times. Like
Baucis and Philemon, they are more
u uiy lypeueu ny TWO trees VI uedTly
equal growth and richness of verdure.
Why is it when thinking of my kind
friends, jeremiah and Mehitable, the
words of quaint old English ballad
keep Ginning through my brain?
"And on one grave shall grow a red
rose,
And on the other briar.
They shall grow so high, they shall
grow so tall,
Till they reach the mountain top;
And there the rose ana the briar shall
meet,
And tie in true loves knot

and spinster can testify.
Now, having lived on this little flying
ball some years, 1 know whereof l
speak. BY the way, did you ever meet
Mehitable Long? She lived many years
in that old farmhouse behind the big
spreading oak on the way to Hopper
town. Mehitable had character, guam
titles of it, and very good Of its kind,
too.
Her father was no Carthaginian, and
did not lay her helpless baby hands on
the altar of home and country, COM
pelling her to take an oath against that
enemy of womankind-matrim Not
at all. Yet she was as decided as
though she had been oath-bound. Now,
don't misunderstood me. Mehitable
was no fool, and did not go about rail-
ing against the men. She treated all
frankly and courteously, and had warm
friends of both sexes. But the pyramid
of Egypt was not more firmly based on
its native soil than she was on de-
termination to remain, through good
and evil report, a fixed member of the
highly-respected and respectable sister,
hood of spinsters. She used to declare.
'The legend on my tombstone shall be
'Mehitable Long, spinster; age ninety
nine; never had an Offer"
Time sped on, and treated my friend,
in it's liberal way, with its bitter and Its
sweet, but not once had she swerved
from her early determination, and l
should have as soon thought of hearing
that the great pyramid had been caught
waltzing with the sphinx as to hear that
Mehitable Long contemplated treach-
cry to the sisterhood.
Like a thunderbolt dropped from a
clear December sky came the news that
Mehitable was engaged to be married
to a man. You may pronounce the close
of my assertion a superfluity, as women
generally marry men; but / emphatic
ally declare that my astonishment was
intensified by that very fact. 1t seemed
to me that Mehitable's marriage should
change the whole natural order OF
things.
But why linger? She married, and
went-with her husband, too-on a
wedding tour. Somehow, 1t could have
been borne with more equanimity had
they taken separate journeys.
In process of time, after the effects
of the shock had somewhat subsidized
l went to pay the married spinster a
visit. Several years had passed since
her catastrophe, and her family now
numbered three, the third one being lit
tie Hope, child born in the memorable
blizzard Of 1888, and as remarkable as
the child of a spinster and a blizzard
should be. Now, do not for moment
think that l am casting any re ections
upon the exceedingly worthy jeremiah
who bears the trials of his life, and
especially Of his married life, with a
fortitude approaching, if not reaching
sublimity.

reant friend, l amused myself by I'M
agining the changes the experiences OF
married life might have produced. She
had always been fond of standing on
intellectual heights, and her dearest
and most intimate friends were the oc-
cupants of her treasured library; and
with her fine taste and keen apprecia-
ton of literature was a corresponding
dislike of the hum-drum, never-ending
round of household work.
How will it be now, with both Jere-
miah and little Hope to feed and care
for? Has she become vine, hanging
over the wall-metaphorically Jere-
miah;-a vine fruitful in household
works? Can it be that my friend, Me-
hitable, who always stood so uncom-
promisingly on her own roots, has by
some mysterious process become a
clinging matrimony vine? And Is Jere-
miah the supporting trellis?
"Centripolis!' screamed the con-
ductor, and gathering together great,
middle-sized and little bundles, l went
forth to receive the answer to my
queries. On the platform stood my
friend, Mehitable, with a combination
of Mehitable, jeremiah and blizzard by
her side, in the form Of Miss Hope.
In justice to the little midget, let me
say the blizzard side was rarely upper
most.
The hearty greeting, 81 am very glad
to see you once more, Graysaida"-her
pet name for me in the happy spinster
days-was reassuring. She had not
quite lost her identity, then, in the
thickets of matrimonial perplexities
and felicities. We had only to walk
across a little common to be at her
door; and we were soon exchanging
"reminiscences of the past and news of
the present. This conversation was not
entirely unshared by Miss Hope, who
was so often and so emphatically sup
pressed by her mother that she confided
to her favorite doll the opinion that
