SHOWING IN THE ANTLER.
Face of the Tunnel Full of Good Mill
ing Gold Ore.

The Antler Mining company, of Lion
Hill, has not been saying much regard
ing its operations, and yet it has been
hard at work in the development of it's
property. and the indications are now
that it will not be long before the show
ing will be such that the subject of a

has been hard at work in the driving of
a tunnel in the Antler ground Mr.
Wilkinson was in the city yesterday
purchasing supplies for the mine, and
he informed The Herald that the tun-
mel. which is now in a distance of 40
feet. disclosed a fine body of of ore at
100 feet. and that now the face of the
tunnel was full of mineral that carried
average values of So and $40 in gold

GOLD STRIKE AT THE PARK.
Vein in the Constellation Carrying
$40 in Gold

Park City. May 13.-Although Park
City is generally regarded as purely a
silver camp, recent developments at the
Constellation prove that the district
contains gold as well. a very import
ant discovery of gold ore has been made
on this property near the surface, 1000
feet southwest of the shaft. The ledge
can be traced for about 500 feet on the
surface. 1t is only six inches wide at
the top. but has widened to over four
feet at the bottom of the prospect hole,
which is now down about 80 feet. As
says of the outcrOppings have given as
high as $40 in gold, and little silver
1t is pronounced fine gOld-bearing
quartz and as greater depth is attained
the prospect is more encouraging. The
footwall is almost vertical, while the
hanging wall dips only about 10 de-
grees from vertical.
a very promising feature of the strike
is that the same character of formation
is found in the ledge that was encOunt-
cred on the drift from the 800 level at
a distance 400 feet southwest from the
shaft. This ledge is "a feet wide and
contains decomposed quartzite, assays
Of which have given S2.40 in gold and y
ounces in silver. The ledge has been
crossed and a drift run IS feet, which
will be continued in the hope of strik-
ing one farther south. A drift on the
hanging wall has been run $50 feet and
strinsers of ore are coming in nicely
1t is believed that the lodges cross not
a great distance ahead.
Good reports are being received from
the Rescue property in Nevada. An as
say of an average sample of ore taken
from the vein in the lower tunnel gives
S64.40 in gold. There are five tunnels.
with a vein in each ranging in width
from to 16 inches. 1t was expected to
start the mill today
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1897-05-14

fore the bodies of ore in sight would
justify the erection Of a plant for its
reduction, as, like the Northern Light
and Chloride Point mineral. it can be
treated successfully by the cyanide
process.
Should the company decide to erect a
plant later on it will have almost every
convenience at hand for successful
operation, as the Northern Light Pipe
line runs just back of the cabin on the
ground and arrangements for water
could probably be effected, while in the
immediate vicinity there is plenty of
wood for mine purposes
Mr. Wilkinson recently visited the
Chloride Point mine, and he states it is
opening out in a most encouraging
manner, and he further says that he
is fully satisfied that this is the making
of great producer and dividend payer.
He has also made an inspection of the
Northern Light mill. and he announces
that this is a splendid plant and that
with it the company is saving high
values. There is no guess work as to
the ultimate outcome of the property
according to Mr.. Wilkinson. who says
that he knows" that it is all right.

OPERATIONS AT THE ALICE.
The Company Shipping Bullion and
Paying Dividends.

Regarding the Alice mine, at Walker
vile, Mont, in which a large number of
Utah people are interested, the Butte
Miner says:
Mining affairs in Walkerville are go
ing ahead as usual and notwithstand-
mig the low price of silver a good deal
of the white metal is being taken from
the mines. Manager Buzzo of the
Alice company has about 300 men en-
ployed in the mines and mill of the
company and is opening up some SPLEEN
did ground in several of the mines. The
stamp mill is kept busy, running day
and night reducing the ore taken from
the mines of the company into proper
form for shipment to the refinery. A
shipment of silver bullion is made
about every two weeks. running in
value from $4,000 to $4,000. A good
many silver properties in different
western camps are now being operated
but it is usually the case that the ore
is used in connection with copper ore
for f1uxing purposes. In some cases
the percentage of silver in the copper
ore is too small to pay to save and by
adding a certain amount of silver ore
the fiuxing properties are improved and
the percentage of silver raised to where
it pays to save ii. The Alice company,
however, is now paying dividends on a
straight silver proposition, under the
efficient management. of Mr.. Buzzo.
The company pays out each month
about $4,000 in wages and royalties to
those who are working in the mines
and mill.
At the Rising Sun mine owned by
the Alice company, a number of men
are employed putting the property into
shape and repairing the damage done
by some young vandals several weeks
ago. The cage. which was resting on
some timbers at the TOP of the shaft.
was let down, the timbers being re-
moved. The cage was also filed with
about a ton of old iron found about the
hoist. Fortunately for the company
when the cage started down it was
caught before it reached the bottom by
a patent arrangement in the form of a
brake which is intended for Just such
an emergency. This device only works
when a cage is going at a much more
rapid rate than it can be by an engine
regulating its speed. In this manner
the company was saved considerable
loss A reward of 5000 is still offered
by Manager Buzzo for the apprehen-
sion and conviction of the persons i'm
plicated in the malicious destruction of

Regarding the Dalton.

There has been considerable activity
of late in Dalton stock. although but
little has been said of the intentions
of the company relative to the opera
ton of the mine this coming summer.
The movement in the stock, however.
would indicate that there is something
in the wind. and it is limited that some
Of the insiders are loading up on the
strength of what they have heard re-
garding the outlook for the property,
which. it is said, is excellent.
From q reputable source it was
learned Yesterday that Frank Dalton
who had short lease on the mine last
winter, had made a proposition to the
COMPANY TO the effect that if it will
Install him as superintendent of the
before he will begin the shipment of ore
that will carry values of $4,000
in gold to the ton. Mr.. Dalton. so it is
alleged, claims to know the exact To-
cation of this body of high grade min
eral. but as he only had a short lease
on TIE mine in the winter time when
he could not ship, he did not propose to
show his hand and let the COMPANY
have the benefit of his knowledge. If
Mr.. Dalton cannot get the position as
Superintendent of the mine, he would
like to get another lease on the prop
erty.
. The Dalton has been a black eve 70

discovery of the mine, and while it is
believed that it is an exceptionally rich
property. i. begins to look as if the
stockholders are no nearer to dividends
than they were six years ago, and it is
understood that there is now some
talk Of asking for the appointment of

event the stockholders could at least
have the satisfaction Of knowing what
was going on in the manipulation of

Work at the Valeo.
Park City, May 13.-Work at the
Crown Point mine was temporarily sus-
pended yesterday on account of water.
A pump will soon be placed in the
shaft.
The Steele group is looking very
promising at present. The formation
at the face of the tunnel which is in
about $50 feet, carries black and brown
manganese and it IS stained with
copper and iron. which is regarded as
a good indicati of the near approac h
to an ore body.
James Kervin. the new superintend-
ent of the Valeo. was over to the prop
erty Monday directing the work. The
drift north from the tunnel is being
driven with vigor. Owing TO water in
the upper workings. the sinking of the
shaft TO the lower tunnel has not vet
been commenced, but will be Started
soon.
The new Walls steam jigs at Weber

Impressions of State Line.

James NJ. Kennedy. who has just re-
turned from a visit to State Line min
ing district, in western Iron county.
informs The Herald that he was most
favorably impressed with the camp,
and he is of the opinion that there is
a bright future ahead for the district.
THE deposits of gold ore said Mr..
Kennedy, ARE large, but it will take
development to prove their values. The
camp looks well, and with the expendi-
ture of time and money in opening UP
the lodges It Will doubtless make a
great showing as a gold and silver pro-
Queer.
The range of mountains continued
Mr.. Kennedy, trend from north to
south. The west slope is a silver bear
ing country. while the east side
abounds in lodges of gold quartz. There
are quite a number OF valuable prop
critics in the district, but they are
largely held by prospectors who are in
need of capital fer their thorough de-
velopment.'
Mr.. Kennedy is a veteran miner who
knows a good thing when ne sees it,
and he is satisfied that State Line is

WIRE GOLD IN CHRYSTALS.
Salt Lakers Excited Over Valuable
Finds in Nevada.

If there is anything that will attract
attention and draw a crowd it is the
display of fine samples of gold-bearing
rock. and this is one reason whv the
office of Colonel S. B. Miner. in the
Commercial block was thronged all
day yesterday by mining men and
"tenderfoot' mining operators, as the
colonel has specimens of some Of the
richest gold quartz that have ever been
exhibited in this city.
These samples of rock, according to
Mr. Miner came from newly discov-
cred prospects in Nevada, about u
miles notheast of Wadsworth, where
the colonel and his associates have
made Is locations.
No development work has been done
as yet on the group, but from the sur
face Groupings pieces of quartz have
been broken off in which the gold eX-
lists in its native state in the shape of
nuggets, leaf gold and coarse wire gold.
In the quartz the free gold is also to be
seen in calcite crystals. while the rock
is also resplendent in amethyst crys-
tails.
Mr. Miner became interested in these
new discoveries when the snow was
on the ground, but now that the
beautiful" is fast disappearing, he
has just sent an expert mining man TO
the scene of the gold excitement, and
WITHIN the next lew udES he expects TO
hear from there. and if the news is as
favorable as anticipated he will leave
for the new gold fields himself at an
early date.
According to letter received from
Wadsworth a day or so ago there is
considerable excitement in that locality
over the new discoveries, and the writer
stated that a Wadsworth citizen had
Just returned frcin the diggings With a
lot of float that he had picked up
which sold for 5000.
Since the location of the Miner group
of Is claims about 40 locations have
been made in the same section, and IL
is believed that the new camp will ex-
perience a rush and boom this sum-
mer; but, as usual, Salt Lakers will
probably get the cream of the district.
as they have the happy faculty of get
ting in on the ground floor in nearly
every good thing that is found in this
western country, as is shown by their
