III a short time
Fred Redmond, a we'll known assayer
and metallurgist, was out from Salt
Lake last week looking over some min
ing properties near Silver City and
Diamond. He was much surprised at
the splendid outlook for that part of
the district, and says that without
doubt many of the old prospects will
be worked and new ones opened up be-
fore many moons have waned.
The whim ordered some time ago for
the Eva Mining company. near Dia-
mond, has been put up and is now in
good running order. The shaft is being
sunk on what is known as the Bowers
ledge. Well mineralized rock, carrying
fair values in precious metals, has
been struck and everything presents
a very favorable appearance.
The Eureka Hill mine and mill will
start up on Monday morning. One shift
will be put on to begin with. and as
soon as everything is in good running
order two shifts will be worked. About
300 men viii be on the payroll when
the mine and mill are running full
force. This means a distribution of
SO, 900 each month in the camp from
this company alone.
