The strike made in the Golden Gate
Extension ground at Nercur last Sun
day, exclusive mention of which was
made in these columns, is one of the
most important discoveries made in
that portion Of rhe district this spring,
especially as it was unlooked-for, as it
was not anticipated that pay ore
would be encountered at less than $50
or 400 feet. and also as it controverts
all of the expert theories regarding the
existence Of GOLD ore in that locality
at such a shallow depth.
The Golden Gate Extension company
had but recently placed its new hoist
in place, and was just getting to work
in earnest when, at forty feet, it cut
through the hard blue lime into the
porphyritic formation that carries the
gold values in that locality. This was
sunk upon to a depth of three or four
feet, and the formation was so soft that
a crow bar was sunk to a distance Of
three or four feet further into the min
eral, which, upon being assayed, dem
onstrated the fact that the deposit was
milling ore.
The finding of this sheet of mineral
prise to every one. Development may
prove that it is a large body of mill
ing ore, or the deposit may not be more
than twelve or fifteen feet thick; but
in any event the company do not in
tend TO make any great noise about it,
but will carry out their original inten-
ton of sinking to d depth of 400 or 500
feet, and after the lower gold belt is
reached sinking will be continued until
the silver vein is encountered.
If the present ore body proves to be
large and permanent. it is anticipated
that The mineral on the foot wall will
be OF very high grade, as this is q
characteristic of the gold deposits of
this camp.
From the very start the company has
been much encouraged, as in the shaft
1T has had three Of the northeast frac-
lures that Professor Emmons mentions
in his geological report on Camp Floyd
district.
The blue limestone above the gold
vein was extremely hard; so hard, in
fact. that the contractors were about
to throw up the job, and had they not
broken into ore when they did, it is
more than likely that by this time the
company would have been looking for
a new bidder to go on with the work.
The ore has the greenish tinge so pc
culiar with the rich gold ores of Mer-
cur. and. from ali indications. the dis
covery is likely to prove permanent and
valuable.
While considerable expert work has
already been done in Camp Floyd dis
trict up to date, ii is believed that re-
ports Sc far made furnish no criterion
to go by, as it will take several years
yet to discover all of the faults and
breaks in the formation; and for this
reason no one need be surprised to hear
of strikes in localities where scientists
claim that ore does not exist.

Some women are born stronger than
others. Some are born with what is
called constitutional weakness" 1t
is easier for some women to retain
health and strength than it is for 9th
ers. Some seem able to do anything
they like, whenever they like, without
serious results. Still there is no rea-
son why women should not enjoy per-
feet health. Those who do not need
only to take the proper precautions and
the proper remedy to become perfectly
well and strong. DR.. Pierce's Favor
lite Prescription will cure any derange-
ment of the distinctly feminine organ
ism. 1t is absolutely certain. There are
some who have neglected themselves
so long that complete cure is next to
impossible, but even these will find
comfort and improved health in the use
of the ''Favorite Prescription. 1t has
cured hundreds of women who have re-
ceived no relief whatever from years
of treatment with good physicians. It
is absolutely unique in the history of
medicine. Such a remedy can be dis
covered only once. There is nothing in
the world like it, nor has there ever
been. Its sales exceed the combined
sales of all other medicines for women.

MINERS HOME.
Western Federation Adopts Reso-
luton.


DENVER, Col, May 1S.-By unani-
NOUS vote, the Western Federation of
Miners today adopted the following res
olutions:
Whereas, The dangerous and haz-
ardous vocation of mining, flotwith-
standing the modern inventions and
scientific appliances, is constantly re-
sulting in the disabling and manning
Of a large number of our fellow miners,
rendering them incapable of earning a
livelihood and leaving them wholly de-
pendent upon the charity of the world,
we feel that the time has arrived when
the combined efforts of the miners Of
the west can do something for the al
deviation CIR the suffering of our IN
fortunate brothers. The suitable home
to be erected can be paid for by popu-
lar subscriptions and by donations from
the various local unions. When a suf-
ficient sum has been realized by this
means, it is proposed to apply to the
congress of the United States and to
our several state legislatures for the
appropriation of a sum of money equal
to the amount collected. Therefore, be
Z
Resolved, That it is the sense Of
this convention of Western Federation
of Miners of America to empower its
executive board to solicit public SUBJ
scriptions and to receive private dona-
tons to be set apart in a fund to es-
tablish and maintain an institution in
some suitable localii--- to be known as
the Disabled Miners Home
Old age, permanent injuries OF any
kind, incurable diseases or the dreaded
miners consumption will be sufficient
TO permit the entrance of any miner.

THE sTERL1NG MINE.
Indications More Than Favorable

Indications More Than Favorable
and Success Almost Assured.
Work is being steadily pushed in the
Sterling mine, and the outlook for ulti-
mate success is most assuring.
The Sterling ground is located about
two miles south of the Sunshine mine
in Camp Floyd district, and the bottom
of the shaft, which is now down about
1T5 feet, is in black shale that is i'm
pregnated with pyrites of iron. In the
black shale there are small fractures
or stringers that are mineral bearing,
assays OF which show values of $15 in
gold to the ton.
The company has horse whim and
is employing two shifts, who are put
ting the shaft down as rapidly as pos
sible. One of the most favorable indi-
cations at the present time is the fact
that the men at work in the shaft can
hear every blast fired in the Sunshine
mine, two miles away. which would
indicate that there was a crevice be-
tween the two properties the existence
of which is an almost sure Indication
of the continuity of the ore bodies
It is believed that the Sterling will
break into a good body of ore at the
2O0-foot level.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-05-19

the organization are as follows: Eras-
tus A. Benson. president; j. B. Car
michael, president; Thomas B. Nc
Pherson, treasurer; H. E. Cary, secre-
tary; c. H. Scheu, John I. Hopkins
and c. William Carlock. It is the in
tention of the company to thoroughly
develop its property this season. It's
capitalization is placed at 100000
shares of par value of 81 each, full
paid and worcestershire.
Edward Loose of Provo, manager of
the Grand Central mine, near Nam
moth, Tintic, was in the city yester
day. Work IS being pushed in the de-
velopment of the Grand Central, but
the labor now is being concentrated
in the shaft, which is to be sunk at
once from the 800 to the 800 level. The
Grand Central company has just com
pleted its water system, the line being
laid from Homansville canyon to the
mine a distance of about two miles.
At Homansville the company has a du-
pick Knowles pump, the pipe line con-
sisting of a two-inch pipe. This will
furnish plenty of water for all neces-
sary purposes, and the company is now
independent OF the other water COM
panies of the camp.
Two strangers called on Assayer C.
H Sanders yesterday, leaving with
him samples of black quartz ore for
assay Mr. Sanders completed his
tests last night, and was surprised
when the returns showed values of
$4,000 and $10,322 in gold to the ton,
and he has two beautiful gold buttons
to prove his assays by. The ore, he
says, is unlike anything to be found
in nearby mining districts, and that
it resembles Deep Creek ores more
than any other mineral that he is IA
miliar with in this portion of Utah.
If the ore came from any of Utah's
mining camps, and there is any guam
tity Of it, our new state can safely
challenge Cripple Creek as having the
richest gold producing district in the
west.

BOUGHT IDAHO PROPERTY.

A Ledge n Mile and a Quarter Long
and Twenty Feet Wide.
Considerable Utah capital has been
invested in Idaho gold property within
the last two or three years. the latest
venture in this direction being the pur-
chase by S. B. Miner, W. c. Miner,
L. M. Rutt, ]. H. Hedges and A. j.
Hanson, of this city, of twelve gold
quartz claims at the head of Stump
creek, in the Cariboo country.
This property, according to Mr.. Mil
ner, offers rich reward for the expen-
diture of money and labor; as, through
the claims recently acquired, a strong
ledge is traceable for a mile and a
quarter. the groupings being from
twenty to thirty-five feet in width and
showing values of from $3.50 to 1904 in
gold to the ton, the quartz being free
milling. In no place has a hole over
six feet deep been sunk on the ledge,
and it is believed that with but little
development enough pay ore will be
exposed to justify the erection Of a
mill.
The formation is a true fissure in
porphyritic-granite, and no doubts ex-
ist as to the permanency of the de-
post.
A force CT men will be employed at
once in prospecting the ledge, and it is
the intention to put in a twenty-stamp
mill this summer.
The mines are about sixty miles from
Soda Springs The locality is well
watered and there is an abundance of
heavy timber for building and mining
purposes.
Messrs. S. B. Miner and ]. H.
Hedges will leave for Idaho to look
after this property within a week or
two.

ANCHOR AND AJAX ACTIVE.
Good Demand for Several of the List
ed Investment Stocks.


ed Investmcnt Stocks.
The trading yesterday on the floor of
the mining exchange was confined al
most exclusively 20 several of the list
ed investment stocks, and while other
stocks received passing notice, some of
them being quite strong in the bid
ding, they did not figure to any extent
in II e sales; and, in point of transfers
made, the unlisted stocks received but
little recognition.
The Malvern was called for the first
time yesterday, but before this was
done, the secretary directed the atten-
tion Of the brokers to the fact that the
company has been regularly listed, and
read aloud the statement Of the COM
pany regarding the condition of the
property. When fairly launched, the
Malvern caught a bid of 10 cents, but
there were no sellers in the pit.
Anchor was slaughtered by the bears,
and when the stock was hammered
down TO the dollar mark, 400 shares
changed hands at this figure. On the
streets, after CALL there was consider
able diminishing after this stock at the
above quotation, and it is hardly prob
abe that it can be purchased at this
price today.
AJAX was unusually active and hgur-
ed largely in the transfers of the cay,
but at declining quotations, the highest
price paid being IS cents, and the low
est 96l5 cents, while fifty shares chang
ed hands at SO cents.
Bullion-Beck made quite showing
in the bidding and asking, but the call
closed without any transfers being
made.
Galena was strong at S1.95 in the bid
ding, but the lowest offering was at 81
Sales were made in Four Aces, but
at the old figure, 3215 cents.
Mercur was inactive, with a down
ward tendency noticeable, and it is not
believed that much dealing in this
stock win take place until after 1t has
paid its regular monthly dividend of
$4,000, which will be tomorrow.
Mammoth was also a little off color
