MT. NEBo MINES.
Encouraging Showing in the North
Star Property.

Quar- property.
During the past few months the de-
velopments that have been in progress
in Mt. Nebo district have resulted in a
demonstration of the fact that this is
a richly mineralized region, and that
in time there will be a number of rich
producers in the camp. The North Star
is already a shipper and a paying prop
osition. In speaking of this property,
the Springville Independent says:
Messrs. S. NJ. Davis and George Hyde
came in from their mining properties
last Friday and report everything look
ing we'll at Mt. Nebo, where considera-
BILE development work has been done.
An incline shaft 60 feet deep has been
driven in a face of ore about three by
five feet. A car load has been shipped
and one or two car loads are on the
dump. The ore shows an assay of
about As per cent lead. with 81 ounces
of silver to the ton. The North Star
group is rapidly coming to the front as
paying property. The snow is quite
deep in that locality at present, but as
soon as spring opens up lots of men
will be put to work and considerable
activity will be seen Whereabouts.
Messrs. Davis and Hyde have received
some fine offers for their property
one which is acceptable-and a sale
will likely be consummated early in the
spring.
Messrs. H. S. Powell and Thomas
Bryan of Springville, Mr.. Edwards and
a number of prominent mining men of
Mercur have located a quarter section
under the placer mining act at a point
about midway between Springville and
Provo. The claim will be known as the
Fire CLAY Chief. from the valuable
deposit of fire clay found there, which
has been tested for fire, ornamental
crockeryware. etc. There
is a large quanty of building. rock on
the claim, which the boys are intending
to sell at % cents per perch, besides i'm
mense bodies OF building sand. gravel,

There is no discounting the fact that
1Iercur is much stronger than it has
been for the past week, and there is
every reason to believe that it will
make gradual advances from this
time on.
Yesterday morning. during the call
on the floor OF the Mining Exchange.
the bear element. laboring. under the
impression that it would have an easy
victim in Mercur. started the bidding
at $50. The bulls made a grand rally,
however, and the next moment the
bidding advanced to S6.25, and the
stock closed strong at $500 bid and 81
asked.
There was a better feeling in the pit
Of the exchange yesterday, and al
though the trading was not active, an
upward tendency was noticeable in
most of the stocks, and especially so
in the listed securities.
Anchor. which has been steady in
the bidding, advanced to 9712 cents,
while in the offerings it declined )
cents. Ajax was practically unchanged
and only cents stood between the
buyer and the seller. Daily recovered
lost ground in the bidding, but the
stock is not quite as strong as it was
a. week ago. Daily West, however, was
q prime favorite. and with the advance
IN the bidding the holders of the stock
invariably held out for higher prices.
Galena noted some gains in the low
bidding. while there was the usual in
Quiry for Geyser al about the going
quotations Mammoth experienced an
attack from the bears and suffered
small losses in the bidding, and at the
close sales We're recorded at S207I5.
Geyser-M Marion held its own at s1.40 in
the bidding, while the stock was Of
fered at $1.45. There has been an ac-
tive demand for the stock of late, and
IL is expected that within the next few
weeks advances in this security will
be noted. Sunshine was slaughtered by
the bears and registered sales at 6712
cents.
The unlisted stocks were inactive
and recorded but two transfers dur
ing the call One was of Sunbeam,
which. although the stock was badly
broken a few days ago, has fallen into
line again as a general favorite and
IS now making steady advances. Start
Ing at cents in the bidding the stock
made steady gains until it touched the
72s-cent mark, and it closed strong at
this figure; offered at 10 cents. Swan
sea made sale at 80 after the stock
had been passed. South Swansea was
quiet and but little noticed, while
Northern hight was neglected by the
talent. Crescent of Park City was
called and was credited with a bid of
cents, with no sellers in the pit.
Buckeye was inactive. and yet strong

Concerning the Gold King mine, not
far from Mountain Home. Idaho. in
which a number of Salt Lakers are
interested, the Mountain Home Bulle-
tin says:
Bunting's bank failure at Blackfoot
has had mora than disastrous local
effect The Geld King mine at Dixie,
near this place. of which Mr.. Bunting
is one of the owners, has reduced its
working force down to two men, and a
mine at Silver City has. been closed
down for similar reasons. Dan Reber

deavors to develop the Gold King, but
he'll come out a bonanza king yet.
