THE -FOUR ACES STRIKE.
Great Body of Ore Uncovered in This
Promising Mine.

Promising Mine.
Last Saturday rich strike was made
in the Four Aces mine near Silver City.

the 30-foot level in this property expos
ing body of ore the full size of the
which show 97.2 ounces silver, "a per

and dividend payers OF the district 1t
adJoins the Old Swansea mine, now show
ing up rich and large ore bodies; the
South Swansea, another good paying
proposition, besides another old producer
that has paid its thousands in the past,
and it is truly lin the swim with the
other producing mines of Tintic district
The Four Aces Mining company, re-
Gently incorporated in this city, is the
owner of two claims in the locality men
toned, one of which is patented. Since
Its incorporation last winter, it has made
one or two shipments of high grade ore;
1t has put in a fine gasoline hoist that
will do ali the work required at an eX-
penditure for fuel not to exceed a dollar
day; 1t has built ore bins shaft house,
ETC.; and has opened up its property
in excellent shape and can show up good
ore bodies in different portions of the
mine.
The company is out of debt; has plenty
of money in its treasury and is in a posi-
ton to soon begin the payment of divi-
dends. At present it is working from
eight TO ten men, which force will be
increased as occasion demands, the in
tention being to sink to the 50O-foot
level before beginning heavy ore eXtrac-
ton. 1t is expected that a shipment of
high-grade ore from this property will
be made this week, to be followed by
others from time to time, as it is taken
out in doing development work
Messrs. R. L. Colburn, c. E. Hudson
hn vic tod
perry last Saturday, were greatly elated
over the fine ore body recently exposed
in the north drift, besides the excellent
showing made in other portions of the
mine. They also examined the Swansea,
and report that this is the making of a
bonanza and dividend payer, as it also
has a rich body or ore in sight.
Mr.. Hudson, who took in the Ajax mine
during his trip, says that this is the
biggest buy, at the going quotations, 70
to 90 cents. now listed on the board of
the exchange, as it shows up magnificent
bodies of high grade ores, and the de-
posts see ineXhauStible.

The Checkmate.

Mr.. Chaplin, the Ogden man who
bought the Checkmate mine at Willow
creek and is now making up carload
of ore to ship, did not intend to visit
Boise but was on his way to examine
mine at Baker City. On the train he
heard so much of the Boise gold belt
that he concluded to come in. Reach
ing here he said he would go out and
spend one day at Willow creek, and
returning, go on to Baker. Instead of
one day on Willow creek he stayed a
week and the result was he paid $4,000
cash for the Checkmate and has now
thirteen men at work developing and
taking out high grade rock at an ex-
pense of about $50 dollars per day. He
is an old miner, an enterprising and
thorough business man, and has every
reason to believe that he will not regret
visiting the Boise gold belt. The fore
going facts were picked up in a con-
versation the writer had with Al
Kohny who is well acquainted with
Mr.. Chaplin. The rock that OF Nc

Officers Visit This Property and Are
Well Pleased With 1t.

Well Pleased With 1t.
Last Saturday DR. Maclean, DR..
Pfoutz, S. .. Day and c. H. Wilbur
returned home from an inspection of
the group of mines in Central mining
district. New, owned by the Ophir Con-
solidated Mining company. of which
they are officers and stockholders.
DR.. Maclean, when seen by q Herald
representative at his office yesterday,
was busy unpacking ore specimens
brought back by him, and the quartz
was as rich and lively looking as any
one could wish to see.
When questioned regarding the mine,
Dr. Maclean said that the party were
highly pleased with its appearance,
which was much better than represent
ed by Mr.. Wilbur the promoter of the
enterprise.
1T is a great property" said the
doctor, land has been a producer from
has been developed by means of an
incline shaft, which is now down to
depth of 92 feet, the bottom showing
from foot to IS inches of ore running
from $40 to $50 in gold, ID ounces in
silver and per cent in lead to the
ton. At 60 feet a drift has been run
on the ledge for 80 feet or more, show
ing up good 'Dooy OF pay ore all Ule
way, and from developments made up
TO date the company feels every con-
fdence in the future of the property.
TO work has been done in this mine
since the last shipment was made in
February, but now force of three
men will be at once employed, and in
the near future it is the intention to
erect a mill at the mine for the reduc-
ton of its ores. The company controls
all the water in that locality and 1t
is believed that with reduction works
of its own the property will make
regular dividend-payer."
DR.. Maclean says that this country
is certainly a poor mans district, as
the ore exists near the surface and
can be easily mined. The district is
an ll-the-year-round camp, all that
is needed to make mining lively there
being custom reduction works, as the
long wagon haul and the high tariff
charged by the railroads eat up about
all the profits, even on high-grade ore
The country, he also says, abounds IN
quartz lodges rich in mineral. Al
though not many miners there are
shipping, there are several properties
in the immediate vicinity Of the Ophir
that would pay big with milling ia

GOLD AT HARRINGTON.
Rich Lodges of the Yellow Metal
Exist Near This City.

For a week or more it has been
whispered on the street that gold ore
in paying quality and quantity had
been found near Pennington. AS an
evidence of the truth Of the report
samples of quartz fairly glistening with
the yellow metal have been exhibited,
but the location of the ledge has been
kept a dead secret as the parties
desired to make another location before
giving out news of the find to the
public.
Last Friday a Herald representative
interviewed a party who had locations
on this ledge, but who desired to set
up more monuments before making
known to the world the existence of the
deposit; Saturday morning two ranch
ers from near Pennington were in the
city with their pockets filled with gold
quartz, while still another proSpector
was met with who had heard of the
new discovery and had taken advant-
age of his information.
Yesterday morning The Herald
scribe encountered F. H. Matthews in
the Commercial block and was al
lowed to feast his eyes on fine speci-
mems of free gold ore brought down
by that gentleman from these new
mineral fields. According to Mr.. Mat
thews the Pennington gold ledge is
located about three miles southeast of
that place. The gold-bearing quartz
is all of six or eight feet wide on the
surface and can be traced for two
miles. the rock being so sprinkled with
the yellow metal that it is not neces-
sary ito obtain assays on it to ascer-
tain the fact that it is valuable.
Mr. Matthews left for Pennington
last night for the purpose of making
several locations on the ledge this
morning.

CHICAGO, April 2S.-Closing mining
HIGH GRADE ORE IN SIGHT.
inc hex Mine Showing Up Large
Bodies of Mineral.

The Ibex mine, in Detroit mining
district, which has made a splendid
record in the past and from which
large quantities of ore have already
been shipped to the smelter at Lean
ington and to this city, is in the field
again with a rich strike, and now the
stockholders of the company can rest
assured that the property is about in
shape to become a dividend-paying
proposition.
\ Immediately after the incorporation
of the Ibex company Manager S. f.
Mount went down to the mine for the
purpose Of driving a long tunnel to
cut the ore bodies and also to give a
working outlet, as 1t was expensive to
hoist the ore and waste from the mine.
This tunnel made its connection with
the ore bodies a few days ago at con-
siderable depth, and now it is esti-
mated that in the mine there are 10000
tons of ore in sight that will range
in value as high as $50 in gold and

A representative of the Star Gold
and Silver Mining company came in
from Tooele county yesterday, and
expresses himself as being highly
pleased over the outlook for the prop
erty of the company, which is located
in Pine canyon.
The NINE so far, has been developed
by a twenty-five foot tunnel, the face
of which shows a five foot ore body
from which three sacks of ore have
been taken that shows values of S.

cent lead and u per cent in magnesia
to the ton. The company is about to
controct for another one hundred feet
of work in the extension of the tunnel,
ard by the time this is completed it is
believed that regular shipments of high
grade ore can then be made.

Fred Homes Tries His Own Case and
Is Convicted.
When Fred Homes was brought before
Judge Wenger yesterday to be tried on a
charge of interfering with police officer,
he demanded jury trial. which was
granted He felt sorry for it afterwards.
Homes was the man who bounced upon
Detective Sheets last Saturday when he
was in the act of arresting Frank Fenton,
suspected of being the burglar who en-
tered Mrs. Albertson's house Saturday
afternoon. Homes is no tenderfoot. He
has been in police courts before and dem
onstrated yesterday that he can conduct a
case better than many of the police court
practitioners. 1t was his witnesses that
were responsible for the poor showing
made.
Homes gave a frowning look at Clerk
Shoup and announced to the court that
he would conduct his own case AS wit
nesses he summoned Frank Fenton, Will
lam Roberts, Tom Tracy, j. d. Stevens
and J. w. Harris. AS all these were in
Jail charged with drunkenness or vag-
rancy, it was an easy matter to have
them subpoenaed They all told good
stories on the stand and the defendant
smiled and wore an air of confidence.
The only time he frowned was when the
prosecutor brought out the fact that they
were guests of Jailor Kimball.
When Detectives Sheets and Janney had

fore the jury that caused everyone in the
room to litter and laugh. He referred to
Clerk Shoup as 1.-The profoundly learned
counsel and hoped the jury would take
into consideration his own lack of learn
ing.
1t took the jury just five minutes to
bring in verdict of guilty, and Judge
Wenger less time to impose a sentence
of 500 fine and thirty days in Jail, which,
of course, means 100 days on the rock
pile

bled Homes as the jailor took him in
tow.
OF the witnesses in Homes behalf
Frank Fenton and j. D. Stevens were
each fined $40 for being drunk; j. w.
Harris got ten days for the same offense
while William Roberts and Tom Tracy
were given an opportunity to leave town
