DR.. ]. H. Hall of Parowan, is in the
| city. DIR. Hall is quite an enthusiast
when it comes to mining and has quite
number of promising claims in Iron
county, which, with railroad facilities,
he believes could be developed into
paying propositions. The doctor is also
! fond of good horses, and keeps one of
| the slickest travellers to be found in
the southern country.
Work is being pushed on the Glad
stone group of claims, just north of
De Lamar's holdings in Mercur, and
1t is believed that ere long another
producer in this property will be added
to Mercur's list of paying mines. A
double compartment working shaft is
now being sunk on the Gladstone,
which is now down fifty feet. The
group has also been developed by
means of 100 foot shaft and two 100
foot tunnels, in which good values have
been obtained. The Gladstone is a
most promising proposition, to say the

showing before returning to this city,
especially as they already have good
values to go down on.
DR.. George H. Fennemore of Beaver,
is a recent arrival in the city, and al
though he does not say so. it is believed
that he is here TO arrange his plans

which, added to the value of concen-
trates sent out by the company's lead

ores daily shipped, will make a very
handsome revenue for the company

well-known prospector, was in the

ings of the property will be brought
down to a solid business basis. Twenty
stamps are soon to be added to the
sixty-stamp plant already in operation
at the mine, which will increase the
capacity of the mill by at least third,
and this means a great deal, as there
are immense bodies of low-grade ore
in the mine. already blocked out and
exposed to view, that only await great
er milling facilities to be made remun-
erative to the company.
H. A Cohen. general manager for
Captain J. r. DeLamar, left last night
on flying trip to New York, it being
his intention to return as soon as pos
sible to supervise the construction
of the 500 ton mill for the Golden Gate
mine at Mercur. Captain DeLamar's
experts are now hard at work in the
perfection of the process to be used in
this mill, and when satisfactory results
have been obtained, it will take thirty
days more in the designing of the plans
for the plant which is to be the most
perfect mill ever erected in the west;
and it is proposed by the process used
to save at least 80 per cent. of the val
ues contained in the Golden Gate ores.
