The Park Record, in its always in
teresting review of the mining indus
try of it's district, has the following TO
say regarding the mines of this Won
derfully productive camp:

now little question but that a wonder

IN the vein cut last week is improving
very rapidly, both in quality and guam
tity, and hauling to the sampling mill
was resumed Thursday morning. Fore
man Duncombe is proving the property
up very rapidly. and besides finding
the true vein, is demonstrating that
as depth is obtained the ore grows
richer. a number Of specimens taken
from the lot brought over are on eX-
hibition at John Frenton's and other
places, and they are beauties. showing
a very high percentage in copper and
giving strong indication Of carrying an
increased amount Of gold and silver.
The dip and strike Of the vein is also
conforming to that of the country rock.
In fact, the Vallejo is growing into
mine very fast and its owners are be-
ing congratulated on every hand over
their bright prospects. The success Of
this property means that adjacent
ground will soon be actively developed
and the chances are very favorable for
the vein being tapped at one or two
other points along its course.
AT THE CUMBERLAND
There has been considerable talk re-
Gently concerning the Cumberland
mine, and q report gained circulation
and was published in The Salt Lake
Reral6 to the effect that a large and
rich vein of ore had been encountered,
and that the property would soon be
numbered among the shippers. The
rumor was investigated this week and
the writer finds that the truth has
been estrained woefulIy. The Cunlber-
land is a most promising prospect has
a strong vein and some good ore, but
so far as being a candidate for the
shipping list in the near future, there
is no prospect of it. unless the IN
expected happens. The shaft is now
down 200 feet, at which point it passed
through a strong and regular vein
that shows punches Of good ore here
that shipments are liable to be made
at once. 1t IS a fiBe-looking prospect,
just the same, and makes a fine show
ing for q future mine. A station was
cut on the 200 level. from which point
the vein will be drifted on as the shaft
gees down. Superintendent Lawrence
is well pleased with the outlook

1000 feet before reaching bedrock, but

hundred feet more a large amount of

Sloned. Considering the results OBJ

finds made along the rim of this and

apparent Indifference to success which
might attend further development is
unaccountable. We understand a little

would open UP new ground which
might prove rich as any heretofore en-

The people interested in the ex-

kins and Gulf Railway through
Grant parish, have been greatly ex-
ercised lately over the fact that
the business of the Watkins syndi-
cate has been placed IN the hands
of receiver. The same telegram
which announced that fact also
conveys the information that MIR.
J. B. Watkins, the president of the
syndicate, has been appointed re-
ceiver of the road, and the further
statement is made that Mr.. Wat
kins' own financial affairs are in
good condition. Taking into &C
count the fact that the building OF
the road through this section is a
pet scheme of Mr.. Watkins we see
no need of fears as to its ultimate
completion.
