Cave in the De Lamar Mine.

On Wednesday morning. says the
Record OF Phoebe, Nevada, the De-
Lamar COMPANY had cave in one OF
their big slopes. The Slope was OF
great width, about 100 feet. tiinbersd
in the most substantial manner with
Pinch tirnbers.7 square set. For some
has been doubling W on these sets,
with solid buikheads in many places,
filled in with waste TO within eight or
ten feet of the back of the stope.
Notwithstanding ali this the ground
caved and the cause was the soft
porphry on the foot walls of the ore
body, into which water from the snow
and rains found its way. making it soft
and mucky. causing the timbers to
slide over
superintendent Oman and foreman
Reynolds Were in the ground a short
time before the cave occurred. The
ground was working so badly then that
all the men were ordered out and con-
sequently no one was hurt.
Two hours after the cave Mr.. OK
nam had matterst so arranged that the
men were ar work in other parts of
the mine and no stoppage of the mill
occurred. The cave is not thought TO
be serious one as things are so ar
ranged that the company can get out
the ore without much loss.
Some of the tunnels above No. are
closed from the cave. No. 10 is open,
however and access to several of the
upper levels is obtained from there.
The cave occurred between 4 and
5 O'Clock in the morning. The watch
man was just closing the door of tunnel
No. when the conclusion of air from
the falling ground forced open the door
and threw him to the edge of the dump,
fortunately without injury.
This morning about T:30 o'clock. Just
after the men had gone to work in the
Pacific tunnel. large rock fell from
the roof striking F. Holcendorf on the
back and knocking him down. He was
STOPPING over in the act of shoveling
when the boulder fell. striking him in
a glancing way which saved him from
a serious hurt. The rock weighed sew
eral hundred pounds. filling half car.
He was taken TO his cabin where he at
present is resting as easily as can be
expected.
The Summit mill is now running day
and night shifts. The music of its
whistle is a pleasant sound to the ear,
and seems more like the awakening of
business.
Charley Roe made another shipment
to Salt Lake Monday Of about four
tons from his property at Bristol.

sANTAeU1N CANYON GOLD.
Phenominally Rich Float Found in
Nebo District.

Nephi. May 3O.-A story comes from
the recorder of Nebo mining district
that a man named Williams. from
LakevieW. had seen a boulder or piece
of float which was picked up at the
head of Santaquin canyon by a pros
pector. which assayed $40. 200 10 the ton
in gold. he further stated that there
were now $50 to 200 men searching that
district for the ledge from which this
piece had at some period been Clipped.
1t is a well-knOwn fact in Nebo mining
circles that several pieces of rock have
been found at different periods which
assayed in the neighborhood of $500 to
the ton, but no rock mas ever been
found which has come up to or eclipsed
the assay from this just reported.
If the story proves true. the Nebo
mining district Will experience phe-
nomenal mining boom during the COM
ing year.
Some Tintic parties have made a
good strike on the old Iron Mine prop
erty west Of Mona.
Hyde & Burdick have sent a large
number of pack mules and drivers up
to their mine up North canyon to haul
ore. and from reliable sources it is
learned that these gentlemen have a
good thing. there being a large body of
ore in sight.
Other strikes are reported in North.
Wash and Pole canyons. the values of
which will be made known in the near
future

would be their sDaymaster and would
cash their, time orders. but upon pres
entation of the orders Mr.. Olson de-
hied the responsibility and refused to
pay the men. ST. V. LIE Sieur was next
interviewed by the disgruntled miners
and ne Informed them that Mr. Olson
was Dayfnaster and they must look to
him. The men are yet without pay and
have been, in Price for several days
trying to collect. Suit will likely be
Instituted against lie Sieur and Olson,
who have been handling the ore mined
by the men and the ore will be at
tached for the wages due. The miners
are all young men and apparently well
disposed. but from their expressions
upon realizing that they had been VIC
timized it is safe TO predict a red hot
time for the Castle Peak schemers un-
less the men be paid. Miners came
down from Scofisld expecting TO take
the places of the strikers, but upon
their arrival at Price and learning of
the shabby treatment accorded the men
here awaiting pay. they refused TO ac-
cept the preferred jobs.

SOME TINTIc HISTORY.
Diamond Hollow Properties Located
by the Swearing Christian"


The Silver City Star, in its review
of the history of Tintic district, says:
In our present article we propose to
continue the history of Tintic mining
district down to the close of 1872 or the
third year of the district. We give
only the important and well-known To-
cations, touching on some of the IA
nous old-timerS who helped to make
Tintic great
The Cumberland Maine Key and
Washington were located by !. W.
West, Sept. 2. 1892. They lie in Diamond
Hollow, near the famous Iron mine
Several hundred feet of a tunnel was
run in the ground. but nothing was
ever found and it was subsequently
abandoned and its identity lost. West,
the locator, was a Maine lumberman
and was famous all over Tintic as the
Swearing Christian" He was a warm
professor of religion, but was also
past master at profanity, and his many
tits with the wicked miners on reli
gious topics are recalled by many of
Tintic's old-timers.
The Eberhard was located Nov. II,
1922, and was situated on the west
side of Rising Sun hill. 1t is now COW
cred by the well-known Buckeye prop
erty, of which we will have extended
notice in a later issue.
1872. by Joseph H. Woodruff and ]. D.
Hamlin. The property was worked
quite extensively and produced great
deal of high grade ore. Hamlin, one Of
the locators. was locally known as
Chloride" He could play a good game
of poker. was one of the best judges
of ore ever in Tintic. and was popularity
supposed TO be confirmed bachelor.
We understand. however. that he sur
prised all of his friends by going back
to his OH home in the east and marry
ing a pretty schoolma am. Like most
of the old locations in the south of
Tintic, the Mary Bell was supposed to
be worked out and was abandoned. 1t
was relocated Jan. !, 1883. by J. F.
Fin" Hathaway. Singleton Ferguson
and Dennis c. Sulliy an. under the name
of the Primrose. It is now the prop
erty of the Alma Mining company and
is being extensively developed, with
most satisfactory results.
The Boston was located Nov. is. 1872,
by Messrs Croyle and Walroth. II lay
near what is now the Ajax mine and
produced considerable high grade ore.
1t was relocated March %. 1917. by
Charles Poynter, under the name of the
Hungarian. and was decided shortly al
forwards to Joseph Gerber and Jacob
Hofer. The ground has been worked
several times by leesees, but no depth
was obtained, and Its prOducton was
limited. 1t is. however. regarded 2s one
of the most promising of Tintic's unde-
veloped properties, and was recently
sold TO Frank Knox. president of the
Ajax company. for $4,000 1t is gen
orally understood that it is the inten-
ton of the purchaser to consolidate it
with the latter company.
The Golden Sell was located Dec. 49,
1872. by w H. Camp and S. r. Albee,
both well-known old-timers in the dis
trict 1t lies east OF the Tesora mine
and is now covered by what is known
as the Moore group.

GOLD STANDARD VICTIMS.
Discharged Workingmen Tear Down
McKinley's Picture

A dispatch from Wflmerding, Pa. or
recent date says:
Six hundred workmen Joined in
tearing down and trampling upon the
picture of the president of the United
States here today. Four hundred en-
ployees of the Westinghouse Air Brake
company had received notice of dis
charge Lack of work was the rea-
son assigned In the fitting room or
the mandatory were pictures OF Nc
kInley. one likeness was on banner
signifying Prosperity" The workmen,
furious at their discharge, rushed 70
the room. Following them were 200
others The leaders tore down large
print of the president and tossed the
pieces to the crowd. Then banner
representing Mckinley as the 'Ad-
vance agent of prosperity was seized
by many hands and its fragments
trampled upon. The walls of the room
were covered with insignia of the last
Republican campaign. The visitors lett
there not a scrap signifyinS Mckinney
ISM When the walls were bare the
crowd left the building shouting:
Bryan was the real thing. We made
a mistake. McKinley's prosperity be
damned" The men dismissed were all
expert managers. They had, every one,
taken part in a parade at Canton, o.,
in the last presidential campaign, and
had bought uniforms for it, Returning
to their homes, the men collected their
Republican regalia and made bonfires
of it. The suspension followed %
per cent reduction in wages.

ST. MARY'S CATHEDRAL.
CLOSING CEREMONIES OF THE
MONTH OF MAY.
The Church Thronged-The Corona
tion-special Musical Exercises
Under the Direction CT Miss Glea-
SON.


Throughout the Catholic world the
month of May. is specially set apart for
devotion to the Christ mother. If one
attends the, services in Catholic
churches during this period. he cannot
fail of being impressed with the voices
of children uplifted in song TO Ave
Marie
Last evening in St Mary's cathe-
dral the church was thronged 10 wit
ness the closing ceremonies of the
1t was really the children's night. for
the pupils of the Sunday school made
the jubilee and crowned the virgin. The
altar of the virgin, through the skill
of the young lady teachers. had been
transformed into grotto. The lavish
decoration OF flowers intermingled with
smilax and ferns. the softened light of
many wax candles shedding a halo
over the beautiful statue. the children
arrayed in white dresses. white wells
and their heads adorned with crowns
of white roses-all made the scene one
of enhancing beauty.
Before the ceremony of coronation
began Father Kiely delivered an elo-
duent sermon descriptive of the honor
which Catholics pay the mother of
God. Then 70 children, led by a little
one bearing banner and preceded by
others scattering flowers. marched
through the aisles of the church sing
ing hymns. stopping at last before the
grotto of the virgin. where the corona
tion took place.
Little Helene Caverly and Margaret
Collins performed the act of crown
ing. and these little queens had their
maids of honor in the persons of Katie
Murphy. and .Berenice Seidenfadon.
The flower girls We're Mary Smedley,
Genevieve O'Connor and Gertrude Geo
CHAN: the pages, Lambert Weist and
Robert Lynch. and the crown bearers,
Jack Caverly and Willie Murphy.
The choir was in good voice under
Miss Nora Gleason, and the violin ac-
compartment by Master Williams was
indeed excellent.

Review of the Mining Outlook by the
Vernal Express.


Up. Lake was successful in interest
ing Salt Lake parties in his mining
property in the Grand Encampment
district of Colorado. and last Saturday
passed through Vernal with an outfit
headed for that place. The Grand En-
campnent district is receiving consid-
cradle attention in mining circles lately
and some rich discoveries are reported.
Mr. Lake spent last summer prospect
ing in that district and made some To-
cations which we hope viii prove 10
be bonanzas, as the veteran prOspec-
tor has spent lots of time and money
prospecting and certainly deserves to
strike it rich if anyone does and would
put his money into circulation as soon
as anyone we know of. His Dostof1ice
address is Saratoga, Wyo-
Dr. Mcdonald came over from Fort
Duchesne last Friday and in company
with William Gagon made trip to
their mine on Blue mountain. They
have some fine mineral bearing rock
and claim to have a large assure vein
about 30 feet in width. They will have
tests made of the ore as soon as they
are down far enough to get samples
that will give them a correct idea of
the value of the property.
W. A. Donaher and Dick Pope went
UP to the Carbonate mining district
gin operations on the Big Four mine
Immediately. They will put a force of
men to work taking out ore and Will
ship car load as soon as possible. The
Big Four was a steady producer last
summer, and even greater returns are
anticipated this season.
John Bennett is over from the mines
and showed US some good ore from the
Jessie Ewing canyon and from Doug
lass mountain. An 1S-inch streak of
very high grade copper has been struck
in the Bromide. is what is called pea
cock copper. An assay was made yes
terday from the new strike and il went
10 per cent copper. The owners of the
mine are jubilant over the find and
development work Will be pushed more
energetically than ever.
VIII Gunner, a son of one of the
owners of the Culmer gilsonite mine
near Fort DucheSne, came over from
the mines Tuesday. Mr.. Culmer is a
civil engineer and is putting in an
electric light plant at the mine.

of his visit. there is considerable sig

of the flow of water
A company of employees of the Star
Consolidated mine have taken short
time lease on the upper workings OF
that property. The Star company, how
ever. retains the lower levels and sill
prosecute the new arrangement now in
progress. Arrangements are now being
made to turn at least a large portion of
the second class dump over TO the leas-
ers on the Sioux mill for treatment.
