In 1892 the Bullion-Beck Mining com
pang, at Eureka, marketed 200 or 300
tons OF ore that was sold on controls
showing gold values of $500 to the ton.
This ore was taken from a deposit of
mineral six feet wide in the shaft in.
sinking from the $50 to the 500 level.
and now that silver has dropped out of
sight 1T is the intention of the company
10 look for this ledge, and, if possible,
psace the stock of the company back
to where it was two years ago.
In speaking with Mr.. Beck yesterday
on this subject The Herald was in
formed that orders had been issued TO
prospect for this gold deposit and that
a drift had been started south from the
LOCO foot level With this in view.
ms drift Will be run on a small vein
OF quartz that assays from 50 to 81 in
gold, and Mr.. Beck is confident that in
time a continuation of the gold ledge
WIZ be encountered. He Dis confident
that he knows where it is and thai as
soon as the workings are out of the
broken country where the vein
'squashed" cut he is of the opinion
thar the vein VIII be found as large
and as rich as it was above
a. E. Hyde. who was superintendent
of the mine in 1892 When the gold ore
was discovered, corroborates tl1e story
of the rich find. and he states that he
had trouble in selling the ore because
of its large gold contents and that in
several instances the ore had to be re-
sampled before the buyers would
take it.
This is the first time that it has been
given out publicly that the Bullion
Beck eyer made a record as d gold
producer. but if history can betmade to
repeat itself there is every reason to
believe that the stockholders of the
company viii yet be made happy. re-
gardiess of the degradation and depre-
citation of the white metal.
There are other mines in Gintic that
may yet astonish the mining world in
the way of a transformation from sill
yer to gold producers, and in this even;
those who now bewail their mis-
fortunes may have cause to rejoice.

Palmer at Tuscarora.

Professor Q. A. Palmer, noted min
ing engineer and mineralogist of Salt
Lake City, who has been engaged for
some time past in making an exarlina-
ton of the Dexter and adjacent proper
ties in the interest of the owners, will
probably complete his labors today,
says the TuscaroTa (NeY) TimeS-Re-
view. He is very much pleased with
the showing in the gold properties
south of town and regards their ex-
tent, and believes that few districts
can show such an area of gold bearing
rock as can be seen here. Like many
others who have made the matter q
study, ne is inclined to the opinion
that it should be worked as a mass
without reference to the very rich
streaks which intersperse the whole
zone between the walls, and that VIVA,
is needed is a large mill to crush and
OF course this would involve a large
outlay of capital at the start. but the
extent of the deposits would, in his
opinion, justify it.
With silver at 81 per ounce, Mr.. Pal
mer believes we have one of the best
districts in the west in the silver hedges
north of town, and that our resources
in the white metal are as yet scarcely
more than touched,
In view of the wide experience of Mr.
Palmer all over the west and in con-
nectton with the famous producers Cd
Utah, his opinions are entitled TO more
than ordinary weight and respect, anc
1t is with pleasure we find his views t.
accord with those of others who have
made similar examinations

A VOICE FROM KLoNDIKE.
Former Salt Lake Boy Writes to a
Friend in This City.

Through the courtesy Of James Con-
nelly;of this city The Herald is permit
ted TO publish the following letter.
written by " K Comson. a former
Salt Lsaker, who is now sojourning in
the Klondike country. The letter is
dated at Dawson City on the 18th Of
July and reads as follows:
AS l promised to write you, here
goes.
L arrived here three days since and
find that this town is a hummer, sjnd
no mistake. There is no doubt what
ever that this is the richest placer re-
gion ever known. 1t was struck only
last fall, and this spring over two tons
of gold were shipped and only part of
the claims were worked, and those
with but few men. Some claims pay
$3.50 and over to the pan.
This is Mgh-priced country.
Wages are SIS a day. a man with a
pair of horses commands $50 per day.
Eggs are worth 81 each; lemons the
same; whisky so cents a drink or So a
bottle; potatoes are 81 pound. and
other things in proportion. Gold is
weighed out here like Mrs. Slaughter
would weigh sugar
L had very fine trip coming in.
The weather was perfect. There were
a few rapids in some of the rivers
where we found a 25-mile current, and
this was pretty swift for small boat
and. sometimes a little exciting.
