and the iiecia Group.


Recent developments, says the Mer-
eur Mercury, would seem to indicate
that there are many gold-carrying
Btratas outside of those on which are
situated the great mines of Mercur and
the West Dip. There are at least three
veins in the limestone between Mer-
cur and the Yves, Dip from which as
says of as high as $500 can he obtained.
although the development thus far has
been meagre. and mining man was
heard TO predict recently that within
a short period of time, Lewiston can
yon would be lined from top to bot
tom with cyanide mills. The district
has scarcely been scratched yet.
We were informed yesterday that
this morning the wonder company
would resume development with w.
T. McFarlane as superintendent. MIR.
McFarlane was foreman of the Golden
Gate under Supt Klslingbury and is
consequently thoroughly acquainted
with the dip and trend of the ore
bodies, and as he is also No. miner, II
Is the general opinion that he will find
the ore bodies in the Wonder without
any trouble. We understand that
eight men will be employed with
George Webb as foreman.
