THE CAMP OF RANDSBURG.
A Good District, but There Are Bet
ter Ones in Utah.

| Colonel H. G. Heffron of the Niagara,
who has Just returned from trip TO
California, accompanied by his family,
informs The Herald that during his
absence he made an inspection of the
rev camp of Randsburg, in the Mo-
have desert, on the edge of Death VAL
| ley, and he is of the opinion that while
the district is q promising one, that
there are many better ones in Utah,
while no comparison could be insti
tuted by the former in the way of con-
veniences Offer ed.
At Randsburg the principal mine. the
Rand, is tied up in litigation, and be-
sides this property there is only one
other producer, although there are nu-
merous prospects which have encour-
aging indications to sink on.
The Rand mine was discovered by
parties who were operating dry gold
placer washers. These parties acct
dentally discovered the ledge and this
was the starting point of Randsburg.
The mine has been developed so far by
means of a hundred-foo incline, when
the ledge flattened out. 4 drift was
then run for a distance of so feet, when
a VIM was sunk to a depth of 75 feet
without striking the footwall. and the
extent of the deposit has never been
ascertained as yet This is apparently
a mammoth deposit of gold ore, the
average value of which is $50 ton.
At present the Wedge is the only
producer in the camp, and this proper
ty is shipping from Is to 20 tons OF ore
day that will assay an ounce of gold
to the ton. The shaft in the Wedge is
down to the 15S-foot level and the bot
tom discloses four feet of mineral that
will run over $40 in gold.
The ore from Randsburg is treated
at Garlock, II miles from the cam0,
where there are three mills with an
aggregate of % stamps, but there is
scarcity Of water, which will interfere
with extensive operations.
According to Colonel Heffron, there
are so men employed in the develop
ment of the mines at Randsburg,
while SOC men are engaged in building
the town 80 -
w. H. Thomas OF the Niagara ar
rived from the east yesterday, and
while he does not state the object of
his visit here this time, it is believed
that he is the advance agent of the
Mckinley wave OF prosperity which
has been daily expected in the west for
the past thee months.

When unwritten on, is not more color
less than the cadaverouS countenances
of those unfortunate persons whom we
are accustomed to call confirmed in
valids." What a misnomeri implying,
too, despair, a giving up for lost. As
long as the vivifying power of Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters can be felt, and
that is possible so long as there is no
absolute collapse of the faculties, fresh
vitality can be infused into wasted,
feeble frames; color and flesh can be
brought back to wasted, pallid cheeks
with this grand sheet anchor of the
debilitated and sickly. 1t is a tonic of
the greatest potency and the utmost
purity, and a remedy for and prevent
i've of dyspepsia, bilious, malarious,
rheumatic, nervous and kidney COM
plants. Appetite and sleep are greatly
aided by it; it counteracts the effects
of undue fatigue, or excitement, and
nullifies the often perilous conse-
quences of exposure in inclement wea

FABULOUS WEALTH.
Late Reports From the New Camp
Near Yuma.

Every available vehicle, every sad
die horse and all means of travel have
been brought into requisition at Yuma
to convey people to the new mining
field in the S. H. mountains, 65 miles
from that town. says the Gazette of
Phoenix, Ariz. The rich, yes, fabulous
find made by Gleason and Eichelberg,
two weeks ago, has started a great
rush. Then when Frank Guerra, the
well known mining expert, went to the
scene OF the find, brought 600 pounds
Of ore that was worth S1.50 a pound,
excitement reached fever heat. This
has been augmented by a strike made
by a prosDector named Kane, who but
a few miles distant from the phenome-
nal strike. found a well defined ledge
on a mountain of malleable iron. This
assayed $4,000 20 the ton. Then the
rush began TO be irresistible and from
Sentinel also parties began to outfit
for the new camp. While it is scarcely
a fortnight since the first discovery.
the news has been far spread. Frank
Guerra, after making careful eXamin-
alton along the ledge. says it is many
times the biggest mine he has ever
seen and that at least LOCO 900 lies
within one foot Of the grass roots. This
sounds unreasonable, yet all hope it is
true

at the instigation of this paper. and there
is every reason to believe that the report
is true in every particular
Work is being pushed in the sinking of
the shaft in the Sunbeam mine, near Sill
yer City, Tintic. and it is stated that the
shaft is now down to the 450-foot level.
The shaft is still being sunk in vein mat
ter. but The Herald is informed that no
bodies of ore have been encountered as
yet and that the mineral occurs only in
punches. The Lawrence Sunbeam mas
been segregated from the holdings of the
company, and it is not known as yet
whether or not this fractional portion of
the group will be purchased by the COM
pany.
Some time ago the firm of Windsor &
Hudson was dissolved and in its place
a company was incorporated under the
title of Windsor, Slater & Hudson. A few
days ago the company met and appointed
n. B. Windsor as manager of the COM
pany on a salary. and this gentleman will
hereafter give his undivided attention to
the business, while Mr.. Hudson will now
devote his time to the conducting of a
general brokerage business and the hand
ling of mining stocks. These gentlemen
are well and favorably known in Utah
and those who have dealt with them once
will do so again.

But little interest was manifested
yesterday in the call of the mining ex-
change. and the business transacted on
the floor was rather limited.
For the past week or so Anchor has
been inactive and but little noticed.
Ajax continued weak, and yet the stock
was fairly active, but at declining fig
ures. Bullion-Beck was a trifie stronger
and was in good demand, and the stock
was firm at the offering quotations of
the previous day. There was scant in
quiry for DAILY. which was quoted at
the close at about the figures of the
day before. DAILY West was not strong
at ali in the pit but on the streets be-
fore the call transfers of 300 shares
were made at So. Galena was a favor
tie with the brokers, and before the
close sales were recorded at 81 and
$1.025a. Geyser developed a strong up
ward tendency and was very firm at
the close at the quotations given be-
low. Mercur maintained its own in the
bidding and offerings. but was quiet.
1Iammoth fell off in the bidding and
holders were willing to sell at a de-
cline from yesterdays figures. Geyser-
Marion was firm, but chronicled no
sales. Utah was slumpy and was in
active.
But little attention was paid to the
unlisted securities. and this class of
stocks failed to cut any figure in the
dealings Of the dav. and YET some of
the shares were firm at the going quo
tation or made advances in the bid
ding. South Swansea was firmly held
at the 81 mark, with bids at S--Si19, but
it is believed that there VIII be mac
