Dunyon is accompanied by Mrs. Dun
yon, who may possibly have to under
go a surgical operation for an abcess in
the stomach. 1t is to be hoped that she
will come through the trying ordeal
successfully.
Hon. George w. E. Dorsey, Hon.
Frank Harris and G. H. Robinson
came in from Tintic last night. Messrs.
Dorsey and Harris were much i'm
pressed with the mineral wealth of
Tintic district, and what they saw
there IN ore values was an eye-opener
to them.
The Northern Light company sent
500 ore sacks out to its Lion Hill pro-
perty yesterday, which are to be fol-
lowed within a short time by 500
more. The mine is in excellent shape
with large bodies of ore in sight, and
a shipment of high-grade mineral will
soon be made.
Superintendent Ed Magner of the
Gold Dust mine at Leesburg, Ida, will
leave for the mine next Sunday and
before his return, which is expected
within twos weeks, he will visit Butte
city and Helena The latest reports
from the mine are of a most encour-
aging nature.
Eastern advices are to the effect
that the future market for copper is
likely to be strong one, with an adj
vancing tendency. The market, how
ever, will be largely a speculative one,
as it is controlled and manipulated by
Lewisohn and the Rothschilds, who
are rivals of each other.
Joe Young, the popular Union Pa
cific official, was busy yesterday at
tending to shipment of ore from the
Checkmate mine in Willow Creek dis
trict, Ida, in which he is interested
with F. L. Chaplin, c. A. Henry and
which carried we'll in gold values, will
be followed soon by another one.
Saturday evening Messrs. John
Heinrich, W. R. Wallace, E. G.
Woolley and E L. Sheets will take a
run out to Eureka, and during the
day following they will explore the
underground workings of the mines of
this magnificent camp, and also take
a run over TO Mammoth and Silver
city.
Samples of ore were taken from the
dump of the old Bob Ingersoll mine
yesterday from which values of $3.50
in gold were obtained. This mine is
located short distance northeast Of
this city and is being extensively de-
veloped. Day before yesterday two
boys found good-looking ore within
from Main street, and probably by this
time the ground has been located.
Major j. E. Jackson. the western
agent of the Consolidated Kansas City
Smelling and Refining company, re-
turned yesterday from a trip to Den
YER. He reports mining matters as
state. and that the mines of Cripple
Creek and Leadville are increasing
their output with a likelihood that they
will discount the record made during
the last six months of last year, which
was an unusually good one.
j. r. Slater and r. L. Colburn ex-
pect to leave for Silver City, Tintic, to-
morrow afternoon. Mr.. Slater will
look after the Four Aces property at
that place, while Mr.. Colburn will be-
gin operations on the famous Shoe
bridge-BonanZa with a force of men.
A number of Salt Lakers will go out
with these gentlemen, including Broker
George F. -Downey and G. E. Hudson.
Sam j. Kenyon, who goes out to
Tintic today, will most likely join the
party at Silver City.
H. A. w. F'yler expects to open his
Mercur mercantile establishment next
week, Wednesday, in Murphy & Pre-
bles' new block. This will be one of
the largest stores in the state outside
of Ogden and Provo, and will be up
to-date in every respect. J. w. Law
renee, who was so long with Reming-
ton &, Johnson, will have charge of
the grocery department of this new
enterprise, while Louis Sweitzer. the
well-known and popular salesman of
this city, will look after the dry goods
and clothing. Mr.. Fyler opens up
under favorable auspices, and he has
unbourded faith N the future of the
camp.
Frank Stouffer, of Fremont, Neb..
who used ito train with Messrs. Airs,
Dern, Brown and Peyton when east
ern Nebraska was a pasture for buffa-
loes and antelope, is in the city, and
during his stay here can generally be
found at the Mercur office. Mr. Stout
fer, in commenting on the Nebraska
people who have settled in Salt Lake
and engaged in mining, says that they
are representatives of the best and
most substantial citizens of that state,
and that what has been Utah's gain
has been NebraSka'S loss. Mr.. Stouffer
himself has the appearance of being
a solid citizen and we trust that
Utah may become so attractive to him
before his departure that he will de-
eide to return and locate here.
Hon. A. c.. Cleveland of White Pine
county, Nevada, who is so we'll and
favorablY known in this western coun-
try, is Cullen guest. Mr.. Cleveland,
when seen by Herald reporter last
might, stated that in his county in the
vicinity of Cherry creek, there was
considerable activity in mining circles
at the present time. Mines were being
leased and bonded and considerable de-
velopment work was in contemplation,
it being his intention to resume work
on his Star and Grey Eagle properties
at an early day. Mr. Cleveland also
stated that the people of White Pine
county were waiting anxiously for
railroad building into that region from
Salt Lake City, and that when it was
awarded transportation facilities, east
ern Nevada would be a source of great
wealth to this city.
