C. G. DeGraw has set his heart upon
some promising properties in the Cherry
! Creek country, White Pine county, Ne
4 yada, and ii is stated that he will spend
the winter in that camp. DeGraw has
many friends in this city who are hop
-n- that he will strike it rich
But little news has been received from
! the State Line district of late, but it is
understood that in the Eagle Valley
district, adjoining, Ben johnson, with one
or two men, is engaged in putting up
csbins on the Allen G. Campbell gold
/ claims, it being the intention as soon as
! they are completed to do some extensive
| prospecting on THE ledge
The directors of the Henrietta Mining
! company held a meeting on Monday and
/ decided to refuse the late offer made for
/ the purchase of this promising property
/ The Henrietta is in excellent shape, &C
ccrding to the amount of development
work done, and the company is confident
I that in time it will open out into one of
the best mines in the district.
The lumber is all on the ground for the
construction of the Northern Light mill;
and it is expected that the machinery will
begin to arrive some time next week. The
company is highly pleased with the
progress that has been made in the con-
that within the specified time the mill
will be turning out cyanides.
F. W. Edelsten of Los Angeles, Cal,
the able editor of the Mining and Metal
interest of his publication, and also for
{ the purpose of taking look at the City
of the Saints" of which he has heard so
much. The Journal is first-class min
ing paper, and it is hoped that Mr.. Edel-
stem will win his way into the good
graces of our mining men. Mr.. Edelsten
is accompanied by his wife, who is de-
lighted with Salt Lake.
Frank P. Davis of Hsrcur, who has
been in the city for the past week, ex-
poets TO return to this great gold camp
this morning. Mr.. Davis is interested in
the Great Eastern group at Mercur, the
directors of which met a few days ago
and decided to resume work in the de-
velopment of the property. Mr.. Davis is
also interested in the Big Flat group of
nine claims in the western foothills. and
he informs The Herald that during the
past few days he has had several offers
for the property, which, since the hurrah
over the showing in the Omaha and La
Clgale mines, has more than douE<ed in
value, in his estimation, at least.
1t is rumored in mining circles in this
city that the Consolidated mine, four and
a half miles north of Brigham City, rs
one OF the coming bOHanZaS of the state.
This property is under the management
Of H. c. Baker, and it is learned that in
the 2,OOO-foot tunnel in this ground and
in the extensive workings there is an
immense amount of ore blocked out ready
for extraction, the estimated value of
which is 100000, and il is also claimed
that the ore will assay from s. to $500
IL gold to the ton and high in silver
and lead. The property is being steadily
developed by three shifts, and now that
the $4,000 tramway has been completed
ii is believed that ore shipments will be-
gin at an early day. If rlis mine is all
that is claimed for it, there is no doubt
but that it is one OF the greatest mines
in Utah.
