and it is probable that it will be con-
tinued indefinitely The property lies
south of De Lamars ground and east
of the Annie, and over $1,000 has al
ready been expended on the property.
Among other workings in the group is
an incline 127 feet long, in which a vein
of ore about il inches wide was dis
covered Assays from the face of the
incline show values of $3.50. The COM
pany proposes to follow the vein. with
the expectation that it will lead to the

Work Will be resumed at the Wachu-

altogether too good to stand idle. and a
force of men will commence operations
in a few days.
Business and prosperity seems TO be
in the air at Mercur these days. The
activity at the mines is growing rap

THE FREE COINAGE MINE.
Little Cottonwood Property of Merit
and Promise.

J. z. Darmar and Scott Hamilton,
two of the officers of the Free Coinage
Mining & Milling company, who re-
turned from Little Cottonwood canyon
Wednesday evening, where they have
been for the purpose of making an in
spection of the property OF the COM
pany express themselves as delighted
with the showing made, and they
brought back with them some samples
OF ore from the mine that would indi-
cate that the property is all that is
claimed for it.
The Free Coinage group of four
claims is located up the canyon about
six miles above the little town of Wa
satch, which place is the terminus Of
the short spur from the Rio Grande
Western road. The claims join each
other end to end. and embrace in their
side lines a true assure vein in granite,
which crops boldly for distance of a.
least 5000 feet.
From 10 to u openings have been
made on the vein, all of which show
good bodies of ore between two well
defined walls, the naturalization being
all of four feet in width. There are
three tunnels and one shaft, which have
been run and sunk in the development
of the group, and the pay streak dis
closed ranges from 10 to u inches in
width, the values running from 80 to
100 ounces in silver, So TO S. in gold, and
Is per cent lead. besides which the ore
runs well in iron.
The company is working four men in
the development of the property. and
this force will be doubled within the
next few days, the intention being to
make a shipment some time this fall.

Ed Stewart, the successful mining
superintendent who has charge of the
Development of the Silver King and New
Guinea mines at the head of Govern
ment creek, Tooele county, is spend
ing a few days in Salt Lake.
In speaking of the Silver King. which
is owned by the Naylor brothers and
Paddock of this city, Mr.. Stewart
states that the mine is looking fine,
and that he is working a force of is
men on an ore body from 20 inches to
two feet wide that carries gold, cop
per and silver to the value of $40
ton, and there is large amount of this
class of mineral in the mine-enough,
in fact, to justify the installation of
ten ton matte furnace on the ground,
which is now handling this amount of
ore daily, and the The Herald is in
formed that at the mine the owners
now have nice lot of matte ready for
shipment. The furnace is of the Ma
tional make and comes from st. Louis.
Charcoal is used in the reduction of
ores, and this is made on the ground,
so that it would seem that the prob
lem of utilizing ores that are produced
a long ways from the railroad has been
solved in this instance, as Mr.. Stewart
states that the mine and furnace are
being operated on a paying basis,
which would not be the case if the ore
had to be hauled to the railroad.
Mr. Stewart also has the development
of the New Guinea mine in charge. He
is working but three men on this prop
erty, and they are engaged in running
a crosscut for a four-foot body of ore
which, when uncovered, will also call
for the erection of a plant for ore re-
duction.
The ore in the New Guinea, of which
considerable is exposed in the mine, is
of the same character as that found in
the Silver King, and Mr.. Stewart is of
the opinion that it will develop into
heavy producer in the near future.
Mr. Stewart will remain in the city
until after the first of the month, when
he will return to he mine.
