arercur Mercury Mining Notes.

Colonel M. J. Sheridan of Chicago.
chairman of the Chicago mining and
mineral board, was a visitor to Mercur
this week, and examined some of the
great mines of the camp. He was
greatly impressed with the merits of
the district.
Work is being driven ahead as rap
idly as possible by three shifts in the
Cannon property, but we are unable
to say as to the results of the work, as
the operators are saving wood in large
quantities.
The water in the Hecla has been "a
great obstacle this week, but the boys
are still crowding er down, and Man
ager Leonard thinks he can begin to
taste ore and wears a smile like an
angel.
E. e. Clark, superintendent of the
Eagle mine, was taken suddenly and
seriously i'll Saturday, and for a time
great alarm was felt by his family and
friends concerning his condition. He
is improving at present however, and
it is hoped that he will soon be COM
pletely restored to health.
Preparations are being made to re-
sumo work at the Brickyard the first
of the week. The pump which has 0 cen

and it is expected that ore will be en-
countered in a short distance.
The Olsen shaft on the Junebug claim
is down ninety-five feet and the bot
tom is in mineral quartz which runs
from 81 to SIS per ton in gold. 1t looks
as though the Olsens were sure of a
big mine in this property, and that all
the old timers will have to revise their
ideas.
The electric light company have Sc
cured water power on Ophir creek, and
Manager Brown has been here during
the week arranging all preliminaries
for the rapid construction of the plant.
Coal oil will soon be at a discount in
this camp.
People who have been prospecting
this section for gold so faithfully for
some months past, seem to have for
gotten that the gold vein is underlaid
by one of the richest silver bearing
zones every discovered. This fact was
brought to mind Monday, however, by
the discovery of ore running 1878
ounces silver The discovery was made
by Hunt, Castleman and Parsons in
the Markham group, while prospecting
for gold, and the ledge was uncovered
in a hole not three feet deep. The
Markham group lies in the western
foothills near the mouth of Silyerado
canyon, half a mile south of the leila,
a famous old producer. Of course the
discoveries are feeling jubilant, and
the strike has caused considerable ex-
element in camp.

to any observant person that the best

nervous vigor, is the one which most
rapidly and completely nourishes the
worn out parts. 1t is not in the pow

So is the city.
The members of the committee on
improvements had an informal CONSUL
tation during the day, but the matter
has been left in such a shape by
the council that they could do moth
ing.
The talk Of municipal ownership of a
light plant is on the increase and many
are becoming favorably convinced that
this is the only ultimate solution Of the
problem which is now confronting the
city. With this object in view several
Of the members of the city council, it is
understood, are making thorough in
vestigation in order to be informed
when the question will be brought up
at some early meeting of that body. A
plan that seems to be meeting with
favorable comment is to have some
eastern company construct plant and
the city pay for it in installments, or
as much each year as it would other
wise pay a private corporation for fur
nishing the light. In this way the finan-
ces of the city would not suffer to the
extent they would if the plant was
constructed and paid for at once. 1t is
conceded, however, that the latter, I'M
der ordinary conditions would be the
cheaper in the long run, but something
will have to be done; the city cannot
continue in darkness.
Nothing in the way of a change may
be expected until next Tuesday night
when the council meets. Even then the
councilmen are all firm in saying they
will not recede from the stand they
have taken-light or no light.

discovered on the Dalton ground at a
considerable distance above the old
workings, which, by mining men, is con-
sidered to be the true mother vein of
that region; and it is also. believed the
assure or. cash vein in which the former
workings were run, is only a feeder to
the main vein, and it is held that at the
juncture of the feeder with the true ifs

only a question of time now before the
theory as above outlined will be demon

At the present time drift is being

sent to the mine the first of the week. and
there is no question but that several con-
as the snow goes, so that the ore can be
sent down the mountain.
Ever since the Dalton failed as pro-
Queer, rumors have been rife to the eff
feet that certain parties knew just
where to find the lost ore body, and re-
ports of this kind are even now in cir
culation. Indeed, SO persistently are they
repeated that some color can be given
to the belief that the ore chute was pur-
posely lost or covered up, to be found
again when the right parties secured con-
troll of the property or were enabled to
work it on a lease. But, be this as it may,
the present company is confident that it
is now on the right track, and that the
course it is now pursuing will land it
into the main ore body of that locality.
Another thing calculated to advance the
interest of the Dalton company, together
with every mine owner in the Marysvale
district, is the fact that the R. G. w.
road is almost sure to build into Marys-
vale by fall, as even now it is doing ex-

of the superintendent, John Began, to

improved pumps, with capacity of
100 gallons per minute.
Mr.. Began states that the pumps
will be in position and everything
ready to resume sinking by May 1.
when the eight hour shifts will be put
in the shaft, and a record for sinking
will be made equal to any in the camp.
The Began shaft is now down 500
feet where a station has been cut for
the pump. This is exactly the depth
and the same formation at which the
Silver King encountered a small body
of water such as the Began now has,
and after sinking about fifty feet be-
low this point the formation was so
open that the water escaped, and Mr..
Began states that inasmuch as he is
IN exactly the same IoIIHallOH anu d.
the same depth that the Silver King
was when they encountered water,
that it is reasonable to suppose that
the water in the Began will go through
the open formation when he sinks
about fifty feet further.
