lion HILLS ORE BODIES
Prof. Tibbals PronOunces Them Great Both in
Extent and Richness.
NORTHERN LIGHT AND CHLORIDE POINT
excitement In the Fit Today-Purchase'
the stewart No. = Miscellaneous
Mining Items.

Prof. Tibbals. a leading spirit in To-
cal mining stock circles, returned last
evening from trip to Lion HILL
where he says he saw some of the
greatest ore bodies. 1t was ever his
pleasure to gaze upon.
In q. talk with a News" reporter
today Mr.. Tibbals seemed very enthu-
sinstic over the grand display that Sec
ton of the Mercur district has to offer.
"Why, it's simply wonderful said he,
"the amount of ore there Is in sight
there. The Northern Light has a
phenomenal showing, and is busily en-
gagged putting great volumes of high
grade gold ore into its mill. Manager
curtis is out there looking into condi-
lions and he, too, is pleased beyond
measure at the excellent outlook for
that great producer.
Mr.. Tibbals Is IA great believer In the
future of the Chloride Point and pro-
nounces that property in tlp-tOp shape.
"There IRE huge masses of rich ore
I'm this mine" said the gentleman, and
lis development within the past few
months has greatly exceeded even the
most sanguine expectations. There is
uncovered in the Chloride Point. a
mass of ore fully 500 feet long by so feet
wide, the same having been penetrated
and gone into by means of tunnel work.
This ore body runs from to 40 feet
in thickness. and when the mill now
being erected Is completed, which viii
lie about the first of March, I tell you
the Chloride Point Will make n showing
that people little dream of. There is
sufficient ore already mined to keep the
mill in constant operation for over q
year at the capacity of $50 tons n day.
The company is shipping ore now, and
will continue right along. just as fast
the miners can take that quality of
mineral out of the mines chambers"
The Hercules people, says Mr.. Tib-
balls, are running tunnel on the Bal
tmore. a recent acquisition, while at
Sunshine. where the gentleman made a
short stay. large bodies of good milling
ore are also being developed in the
overland, the mineral giving values of
from So to 81 per ton. The Overland
company has a large tract of valuable
ground. their possessions embracing ia
acres, all patented.

leading properties of this portion of
the district. The new two-story ore
house has Just been completed and Is
being filed with mineral. In order to
enable the large ore wagons to reach
the mine a new road is to be built to
the ore house, and grading was started
today. The largest shipment ever made
from the mine was marketed last week,
and consisted of 1902 tons, averaging 20
per cent copper. Another large ship
ment is being prepared, and will be
loaded next week.
In the Treasure Hill mine some first
class ore is being uncovered on the 400
foot level. directly under the old work
ings. Sixteen men are employed and
the shafts are being worked right
along, Notwithstanding the great flow

had frozen and one of the workmen
took IL into the blacksmith shop and
placed 1t on the forge to thaw out
while he went out for a short time, but
on returning and entering the shop he
saw the powder In q blaze, whereupon
the miner wisely started down the hill
at gait which would have overtaken
any Rio Grande Western train run

a gigantic upheaval and n new black
smith shop will be sorted out.
The flow Of water Mt the Home

that the worlImen were not permitted
to take lay off over Christmas for
fear the mine would fill UP. 1t has been
estimated that the workings would fill
40 feet in six hours. The contract fat

Friday next. when the workings viii

fairly large one, although more gods are
sent out to foreign dealers in curios in
the bazaars of Cairo, Damascus, Colombo,
etc, for sale TO unsuspecting travellers
anxious to take home some mementoea
Of their stay abroad
The price Of gods varies greatly, You
may get Birmingham-made one in a
London curiosity shop for half crown,
or you may run up the pretty bill Of $40
for an especially ugly one, "stolen," ac-
cording to the dealer, "by sailor during
the Chinese war" In the Cairo bazaar,
however, the price Of tirst-class god Of
this kind may run from e20 TO anything,
A traveller informed the writer that there
was little difficulty in detecting god Of
native make from one Of Birmingham
manufacture. The first generally dis
played some slight irFegularity or change
Of design due to the native working by
hand, while the Birmingham god was as
superlatvely correct in form 40 the
most immaculate dandy is in dress.
The trade in idols is kept such a close
secret that it is difficult to estimate the
output, for in the board Of trade returns
the gods would doubtless be classed
under the humillating title Of "works Of
art or curios" But there is no doubt
the trade is fairly large one, and that
some cute Birmingham men do very we'll
