BLUE MoUNTAIN GOLD.
Important Strike Reported In the
Eureka Nine.

From Lester Taylor, who is in from
the south. it is learned that an import
ant gold discovery has been made in
the Eureka mine, in Blue Mountain
district.
The Eureka is owned by John Shat
Ter and his associates, and is the same
property mentioned in these columns
some time ago. At that time the shaft
in the Eureka. was down a depth of
only u or II feet. disclosing a five-foot
body of ore that gave average assay
values Of $50 10 the ton in free milling
gold. Since then. however. Mr.. Shaffer
and his partners have been diligently
at work. and now, at a depth Of % or
80 feet. the ledge has widened out to
g9odly proportions, and the quality of
the ore has also materially increased.
In fact, the quartz is full Of free gold
that is plainly visible, and with such
mineral It is not necessary to make a
fire test TO determine the question as
to its grade.
The Eureka is situated between the
Gold Queen mine and the property
owned by the Blue Mountain Mining
& Tunnel company, of this city.
Mr.. TAYLOR is one of the parties who
recently purchased the May King cop
per property in the La Sale noun
tains. which. it is reported, brought
$50. 600. a large portion of which was
spot cash.
There is a growing interest in mining
circles in the Blue Mountain district.
and also in the La Sales. and with the
deals that have been consummated in
these districts during the past few
and the rich strikes reported,
there is reason to believe that these To-
calities win enjoy a rapid and steady
growth from this time on.

GOLD MOUNTAIN ACTIVITY.
Three Amalganators to Be Installed
In the Camp.

/ After an extended business trip Ia
Zion, W. F. Snyder, says the Richheld
Advocate. the mine owner of Gold
Mountain district, returned home to
Richfield Wednesday evening With
him was W. F. Mitchell, inventor and
patentee of the Acme Flour Gold Anal
gamator, and the two pushed on to the
camp on Thursday and Friday. Mr.
Mitchell will remain on Badly several
months, having contracted to plant
three Of his machines on as many prop
critics there. One is the Golden Star
company's Blue Bird, another is the
Trapper's Pride, bonded by G.. S.
Holmes of the Knutsford hotel, and ].
z. Ray, the Fillmore capitalist; the
third is the Holland, owned by a. ].
Moore and w. F. Snyder of this city.
Before the season closes all these bo-
nanZas will have demonstrated, by the
quantity of amalgam sold and on hand,
whether or not the Acme is adapted to
the treatment of Gold Mountain ores
On Thursday Is men, employed by
Mr.. Snyder, left Richfield for the Hol-
land, where, in three shifts, they will
operate the amalgamator that has been
placed near the mouth of a big open
cut into well panning ledge of decom-
posed quartz. This mine was worked
on the placer plan until recently, when
water ran too low to supply hydrau-
lies.
The three AGNES were landed at Sc
vier station Wednesday night Captain
Egan viii add to his Blue Bird force
enough men to run the machine sta
toned there and Is hands will get a
job on the Trapper's Pride.
