In NIarvsvale Haunts.

Hon. Tom Ferguson arrived in the
city yesterday from Marysvaie. where
he has been the past winter supervis-
ing the development of the Crystal
mine in Cottonwood canyon.
Mr.. Ferguson states that the mine Is
looking we'll with good bodies of fan
grade ore in sight. and that he has
force of ten men at work in ore and in
doing development work. Considerable
shipping ore is being piled on the dump
but it is not known when the company
will put it on the market
Mr.. Ferguson states that at the fam-
Gus Deer Trail mine a few men are at
work in sampling the property and
that it is expected that within short
time an English syndicate will take
possession of the mine and soon after
put in reduction works, when IL Will De
operated on a large scale, as II Is stlll
a magnificent property.
At the Webster, in Bullion canyon,
the main tunnel is being extended on a
fine body of ore, while the indications
are that there will be g. great deal of
activity throughout the district this
summer.
In the lower mountains, according
to Mr. Ferguson, the snow is now al
most gone. but there is stin plenty of
the beautiful on the lofty peaks and
high places.
The mountain streams are consider
ably swollen and the Sewer is at high
flood.

quality of ore is being taken up. A
track has been laid in the tunnel and
the work of driving further into the
hill is in progress. 1t was from that
part of the mine that $125, 900 worth of
ore was taken years ago. and all the
rich ore has not been exhausted. The
tunnel is now in about 100 fee ond
Mr.. Presnall of this place has taken a
contract to put it in a hundred feet
further
little further I'D the hill a new
opening has been made, and the vein,
which was at first only a streak. has
widened out TO little over two feet
and runs from too to bottom of the
face. It was from this cut that the
high grade ore, which is being sacked
ready for shipment, was obtained The
values were as high as 220 ounces in
silver.
The vein is a true fissure and while
there is considerable chloride in the ore
sulphurets and bromide are also found
The values seem to be increasing as
the vein widens. and there is good rea-
sons for the owners to feel gratified at
the progress made.
In the tunnel at the boarding house
two-fcot vein was uncovered yester-
day, which is very rich, but your cor
respondent was unable to obtain the
figures. The ore. however. looks high
grade. and there IS reason to believe
that large body VIII be encountered
before long.
One of the curosities which is at
tracing g great deal of interest in this
property is

AT THE CONSTELLATION.
Very Promising Showing in This
Park City Mine.

! Park City, May 29.-As greater depth
is attained on the Constellation gold
! ledge, it is found to dip more to the
north. The pay streak, which seems to
/ be passing into the hanging wall, is
about IS inches wide and the ledge
matter five feet at the bottom of the
prospect hole, which is about 81 feet
deep. The ledge is enclosed in a casing
of black manganese. which is believed
to indicate a true assure vein.
The formation encountered at present
is a soft chloride. and although no as
says have yet been made. the appear
ance OF the ore indicates that it car
ries good values in gold.
About 30 feet north the outcrooDinSS
of another ledge have Just been dis
covered, which appears TO run parallel
with the other. II is thought the two
lodges viii be found to come together
in q trouGh-shaped condition. No de-
velorment work has yet been done on
the new one.
Meanwhile work is being pushed Wig

he writes to friends in this city that
he has Just completed the assessment
work on the Is claims owned by the
Blue Mountain Mining ard Townsite
company, and that the showing in all
of them is excellent.
Mr.. Taylor is fairly taken away with
the district and predicts that before
the end OF the year there Will be al
least 5000 people in that camp. and
that a large proportion of these will
be Coloradoans, as the people of that
state have become enthusiastic over
the great mineral showing of the Blue
Mountain district.
Quite a number of Salt Lake people
are also interested in this promising
gold camp. and il will not be long nov
before they will begin active operations
in the development of their prospects.

Blue MOUNTAIN ACTIVITY

From Robert J. Thomson, one of the
directors of the Blue Mountain Mining
and Tunnel company. who arrived in
the city yesterday from the BIue
mountain mining district. in San Juan
county. this state, il is learned that a
few days ago a pTospector named Nc
Nance had made an important strike
on claim near The Gold Queen mine
and the prooerty owned by the Blue
Mountain Tunnel COMPANY
The extent of the new find has not
been determined as yet, as the dis
covery was made near the surface. but
Mr.. Thomson brought in a piece of the
quartz with him, which was as large
as a mans two fists, that was liter
ally covered with the yellow metal, and
it is believed that the strike is a most
important one.
II is understood that Ben Haywood
of the Gold Queen, will leave for the
mine this week Tuesday with the in
tention of increasing the capacity of
the mill by 20 stamps, and it is ex-
pected that the plant will be started
up by the LIST of July.

GOLD AT BENNINGTON.
Excitement Over Valuable Discover
les on the Sewer.

There is considerable excitement in
mining circles south of Tintic over the
discovery of large deposits of mineral
two miles north of bennington, and
also at Oak Creek, u miles south of
that place, and as a consequence this
locality is just now experiencing quite
a boom.
From a gentleman Just in from that
section it is learned that the first dis
covery was made by DR.. Bing and as
sociate. and that the deposits are large,
while the formation is somewhat SINH
lar to that of Tintic. The ore carries
good milling gold values. besides some
silver. and a small amount in lead, and
it is believed that the mineral can be
treated successfully by the cyanide
process, and tests with the intention of
determining this are now being made.
According to The Herald's inform
ant the ore bodies are large, and in
some of the rock gold is to be found in
a native state.
Mining men are 1ocking into the new
camp, and it cannot be long now be-
fore the details concerning the extent
and value of the discovery will be OBJ

1t is with regret the Miner registers
this week the resignation of Mr.. Ralph
Zwicky as manager Of the Beckwith
Commercial company, to take effect

the pleasantest and most successful

most kindly towards Rock Springs and
his many friends in it, but he believes
duty calls him to the Northern Light

is required in the management of the

take up the work here where Mr.. Minta
left of, he did 1t out OF consideration

RUSSIAN PEASANTS.
A Party En- Route to Winnipeg,

New York. May pa party of Rus
sian peasants, the first, as far as
known, that ever came to this coun-

The Russianks. or Ruthemans as
they are called, are the inhabitants of
the semi-independent duchy of Buko-

The party which passed through
New York consisted of nine men. ten
women and twenty-five children. all of
magnificent physique. Not one of the
men was less than six foot tall. and
two or three were more than seven

well formed and the children seemed
to be healthy and intelligent.
None could speak English except
