A repor: comes from Piute county
that an important discovery has been
made On the property of the Deseret
Gold Mining & Milling company.
A gold brick valued at S25 was the
result of the first run of an amalgama
ton. The Marysvale Enquirer, in
speaking of the new find, says
the brick was brought up by
Brigham D. Darger of Spanish
Fork, who is the locator of the prop
erty. Mr.. Darger also brings up some
flattering reports from the district, and
tells some very fiatterirg stories of
wealth
There is a whole mountain of gold
bearing quartz. some % feet of success
sive veins. which viii average moret
haan $40 per ton. One small vein, from
two inches to a foot wide, goes $1,000 or
more per ton. Some of the dirt Just
taken from it brought IS cents per
pound at the mill. There were 465
pounds of this kind of ore brought up
last time. Then there is vein two
feet wide, going S64 per ton; another
eight feet, going S17.S5. and another
five feet. going SO.
The character of the ore is a decom-
posed Quartz. and the veins all dip
about 40 or As degrees to the west. The
present company owns a group of mines
and is working the Silver King. on
which is g, tunnel of 200 feet. Several
parties are negotiating to put up a
mill
The owners are nearly all Utah
county people. Albert Singleton of
Provo is president of the company. and
Brigham D. Darger of Spanish Fork is
superintendent The company has in
corporated for 100000, and has already
sold all the treasury stock, 100000.
'You will be safe in saying, added Mr..
Darger. that it is a second Cripple
Creek
The property is in the Gold Mountain
district.

Property.

A Committee Sent to Examine the
Property,
The directors of the Ajax will hold an
important meeting next Tuesday even
ing.
At this meeting it will be determined
whether operations shall be resumed or
not.
A committee consisting of Judge
Boyle, w. G. Nebeker and Judge ".
II. King, were appointed at the last
meeting of the directors to make an in
speetion of the mine and make a report
OF its condition upon their return.
It is said there is no scarcity of ore
in the mine, in fact there is more IN
sight at the present time than ever be-
fore: but there are some differences of
opinion between the directors as to the
best course TO pursue in the further de-
velopment of the mine.
No conclusion could be arrived at on
account Of the absence of Judge King.
and the property was closed down tenn
porarily and men put to work making
needed Improvements.
Now that Judge King has returned
it is Likely steps viii be taken 10 re-
sumo operations at an early date.

HE WILL RESIGN.
Hon. P. T. Farnsworth Will Leave
the Management of the Mammoth.

The Mammoth mine at Tintic is to
have a new manager. Hon. P. T.
Farnsworth expects to resign that po-
sition to take effect about Sept. /.
Mr.. Farnsworth returned from a trip
to the Horn Silver at Frisco yester-
day morning and when seen at his
office in the afternoon verified the re-
port that his resignation was to take
place.
II have my hands full said Mr..
Farnsworth, 'and L have concluded to
resign the management of the Nam
moth. for the reason that 1 cannot
give the property the attention it
should have from one while acting in
that capacity.
Mr.. Farnsworth said it is not prob
able that the Horn Silver mine will
close down right away.
The ores taken out of the mine all
carry values in gold and copper, hence
the depreciation in silver does not af-
feet that property like it does some
others.

BOOTH FUCKERS SCHEME.
He Returns From London Profoundly
Impressed.

New York. Aug. 27.-The world says:
Commander Booth Tucker returns to
America filled with enthusiasm over his
plan to colonize poor people on small
farms in the west. He submitted the
plan to General Booth in London, and it
was commended by the leader of the
salyationists in every detail
When reporter asked him about the
various criticisms that have been raised,
he said:
Il am prepared to meet every objection
to this plan | have made a practical
to General Booth, but to many proni-
nent business men in this country, and
the editors of newspapers who are
familiar with the sections where the
colonies will be established and 1 have
yet to find one who does not give hearty
approval:
the organization of an association and
will endeavor to secure sufficient funds
for a fair trial and to secure only such
people as are desirable. We need $500, 900
irrigable lands in Colorado, Wyoming or
Utah which will be paid for in INSTALL
ments.
For several years I was an officer of
the British government in India and know
the practical results of irrigation. There
can be no question about good crops
each year. We will divide the land into
ten acre farms. We will build a cabin or
small house on each farm, have the
land ready for cultivation and each family
that joins the colony will find work in
readiness and a bank account of $500
to its credit.
THE colonists will pay for the land in
installments at the rate of perhaps 81
per week. We believe these colonists will
come from largely populated centers
Why not start these colonies nearer
the large cities of the east rather than
the West?'
I'VE need a large section of land. 1ua
must have it as cheap as possible and it
must be frrigable. 1t is impossible to
find these conditions in the east. We
have offers of land near Pueblo, Colo,
and Claus Spreckels, the sugar magnate,
has offered $4,000 toward the establish
ment of a colony on these lines in Cali
fornia. The western railroads have shown
the greatest interest This is not a
socialist scheme. 1t is on a purely bust
ness basis. 1t is not a cooperative
scheme. We believe in individual owner
ship. In Colorado families are able to
make living and have a little money by
farming five acres of land
II will be one of the trustees. another
will be an officer of the trust company
that holds the funds and the third will
be a sound business man.

premises, and has been compelled to
work in the vineyard by the side of
hired men off the public highway. and

The British consul has interested
himself in the matter, at the request
OF the MARQUIS of Salisbury. and the
Sheriff of the county being appealed

She is supposed to be in Fresno. and
the sheriff will try to find her today

Opera House, became i'll and was forced
to go to his home, which is called Ryle
