LION HILL MINING CLAIMS.
A. S. Day Visits the North Golden
Gate and Chloride Point.

A. S. Day, the secretary of the North
Golden Gate Mining company, whose
property is located on the western
slope of Lion hill, in Tooele county, has
just returned from a visit of inspec
ton of the work that is being done in
the development of the group, and he
states that the company has reason to
feel encoura ged over the favorable
indications that are being disclosed in
the property as work progresses.
The lower tunnel in the North Golden
Gate ground is now in a distance of
about $50 feet. The formation in the
face is already we'll mineralized, and
it is expected that during the coming
month the ore body will be disclosed,
judging from the dip of the vein on the
surface, where the groupings are quite
prominent.
During his visit to Lion hill Mr.. Day
also made an inspection of the Chloride
Point Consolidated, and he states that
he is highly pleased with the showing
made in this old-time producer. Mr..
Day has explored the underground
workings of the Northern Light mine
several times. and he is free to express
the opinion that the formation in the
two properties is almost identical,
while the ore is chloride in character
and can be easily handled. AS this was
Mr.. Days first visit to the Chloride
Point, he was very agreeably sur
prised to find that the showing was be-
yond his most sanguine expectations,
as there are large bodies of low grade
gold and silver ore exposed in the
mine, besides which the men at work
in the development of the property are
taking out shipping ore, some of which
carries values as high as 500 ounces sill
yer and S. in gold to the ton.
AS for the deposits of second-class
ore, Mr.. Day is satisfied that there is
enough of this character of mineral in
sight to justify the erection of a mill.
The snow is quite deep at the present
time on the road from Mercur to Lion
Hill, but when once opened the sleigh
ing is excellent. which condition facili-
tates rather than retards freighting

EUREKA HILL ELECTION.
Directors Chosen by a Very Close
Corporation.

The Eureka Hill Mining company
held its annual election of officers yes
terday afternoon, and $500 shares out
of the 10000 at which the company is
calitalized, were represented either in
person by the holder. or by proxy.
AS a result of the election the fol-
lowing board of directors was elected:
NJ. C. Fox, president; r. J. Hilton,
vice president and general manager; j.
Q. Packard and II. \. Whitney.
L. S. Hills, of the Deseret National
bank, was appointed treasurer.
The reports made by the president
and secretary, so it is understood,
were very gratifying to the board, the
details of which have been withheld
from the public, as the company is
known as a close corporation. Enough
was learned, however, to give rise to
the belief that the affairs of the COM
pany are in excellent condition, finan-
cially and otherwise.
The regular meeting of the board of
directors will be held on the third Mon
day of March next, at which time it
is expected that the question of divi-
dend will be discussed. The last divi-
dend declared by the company,
to 100000 was paid on the
5th day of January, 1891, but since that
time the company has put in a fine
lot of machinery and erected one of
the finest mills in the state. Up to
date the company has paid $1,650,000
in dividends.

Big Nevada Copper Property.

Western Mining World, Butte, Mont:
According to all reports and from sam
pies of the ore there are about a dozen
people in Butte that are to be congrat-
ulated in being interested and owners
in a valuable group of copper claims in
Nevada. The properties are located
about so miles from Wells in a north
eastern direction and on the Little Sal
mon river. The company operating
the property is known as the Salmon
River and Smelling company, and
among the stockholders we notice the
names of the following Butte men:
Gambling Bros, Samuel Blend, Erick
Wyman. F. J. Bliss, S. j. Cummings,
T. j. Collins. T. H. Collins, Levi Car
tier and II. NJ. Reynolds.
These men have kept force of men
at work for some time past doing de-
velopment work and the property is
now opened up to such an extent that
they can keep a Seton smelter at
work This plant has just been COM
pleted and has made the first run on
ore. 1t is simply a water jacket blast

LITTLE PITTsBURG ASSESSMENT
Directors Meet and Declare an
Irish" Dividend.

The directors of the Little Pittsburg
Mining company met yesterday and
elected officers for the company, to
serve for the following year, as follows:
E. H. Arts, president: DR.. E. d.
Woodruff, vice-president and manager
and c. E. Hudson, secretary and treas
urer.
Immediately after the election of
officers the board levied an assessment
of half a cent on the capital stock of
the company, and DR.. z. D. Woodruff,
who is also the manager of the North
ern Light mine, was empowered and
directed to examine the Little Pitts
burg property as soon as the weather
would permit, and to contract for per-
manent work in the development of the
mine at such a point as would seem
most advisable TO himself and those
who will be associated with him in the
making of the selection of the site for
the permanent workings 1t is under
stood that the gentlemen who will as
sist DR.. Woodruff in making the ex-
animation will be Superintendent
Frank Hines of the Northern Light
mine and w. c. B. Allen.
1t is the understanding that from this
time on the Little Pittsburg will be
worked in a most thorough manner,
and as the property is most favorably
located, there is no good reason why
1t should not find place on the pro-
ducing list within the next few months.

THE DIAMOND MINE.
Underground Workings of Which
Resemble Aladdin's Palace.

Concerning the Diamond mine at Eu-
reka, New, which is owned by Hon. R.
c. Chambers, Hon. Richard Mackin-
tosh and Charlie Read of Salt Lake,
the Eureka Sentinel says:
During his sojourn in Eureka, at the
invitation of Superintendent Read,
Hon. Evan Williams visited and went
through the Diamond mine He ex-
pressed himself as highly pleased with
the trip and all that he saw. 1t was
the first time he had ever been in a
mine where the ore deposits were
formed IN caves and assures as they
usually are in this district The laby-
rinth of caves. leading from one to an
other IN an almost endless chain. are

sible that where the ground benches
and dips off fatty chambers of ore may
be discovered that will cast into the

and more extended assures. and there
fore more extensive chambers and
greater ore deposits than even the
Richmond and Eureka Consolidated
mines developed in halcyon days of
Eureka's grand past. Not only that
our products of recent years have
yielded larger proportion of gold than
was obtained from the ores mined in
earlier days, and it is only a matter of
vigorous prospecting that is required
to restore to this great camp a return
of its past prosperity.

SNAKE RIVER PLAcERs.
Claimed That the Mother Lode Has
Been Found.

The source of gold found in the bars
along the Snake river. in Idaho, has
always been a mystery to mining men.
but a story comes from Lewiston to the
effect that the mother lode which feeds
the Snake and Salmon rivers with the
bar gold has been discovered at the
mouth of White Bird creek. Two
prospectors, McFadden and Cooper.
have discovered a 40-foot ledge of free
milling gold ore. which is cut by the
Salmon river canyon and exposed for
more than two miles, every sample of
which shows free gold. There is great
excitement in the new camp. Men are
climbing over the walls of the canyon
all day and even at night with Ian
terms. The ledge is well defined, and
the canyon exposed to a depth of 1000
feet. and there are millions of tons of
gold bearing ore in sight. 1t is not a
spew or overflow, but a true assure
vein with well-defined walls of tale
and Dorphyry. All the assays made
upon the ground are high. c. B. Wood
of Grangeville, an experienced and con-
man, has acquired interest
in the camp. He has come out with
rock for mill tests. The samples con-
tain free gold and no mining man
doubts the richness of the ore. Mr..
Wood saws that the value of the dis
covery can not be doubted.

BRITISH COLUMBIA MINING.
Great Activity in the Kootenai
Country

The Silver Bell hosting machinery,
drills, etc, says the Rossland Miner.
are here and will be put in place as
soon as possible. Mr.. Founder hopes
the mine will be shipping in about six
weeks. The shaft is down 10 feet and
will be sunk % feet more to the ledge,
when a cross-cut will be started.
There was a quick sale of Silver Bell
stock yesterday. A man walked into
w. H. Taylor & Cos. office and Of
fered a small block for So cents. He
buyer walked into the Hotel Allan
with his stock and there sold it for
cents and this buyer in turn disposed
of ii for cents, all in the space of 20
minutes. This is interesting in view
of the fact that the Silver Bell COM
pany has been buying in the stock at
cents and has withdrawn all it's stock
from the market.
The new shaft on the Evening Star
is now down 25 feet, and shows good
body of ore all the way down and on
the bottom. The ore at first was highly
silicious and a good deal mixed, but
now it has changed to a nearly solid
sulphide. The assays have been en-
cOuraging from the first. The shaft
was started a few weeks ago by
Managing Director H. B. Nichols when
Cook is foreman and the work is be-
ing done in good shape. There is con-
siderable ore of shipping grade now on
the dump. and it is questionable if the
Evening Star ever looked as we'll as it
does now
The upper tunnel on the Cliff now
has an exceedingly fine showing of ore
in the face. 1t is supposed to be the
beginning of a good ore chute ex-
posed on the surface midway between
the tunnel mouth and the big surface
showing on the west end of the claim,
from which shipments are now being
made. The new chute of ore has not
been penetrated far enough yet to
determine it's width or the value and
of course its length is wholly unknown.
1t contains some of the prettiest and
richest ore yet found in the mine, and
the progress of this tunnel will now be
watched with interest.
