CONTRASTING THE CROWN POINT.
Battle Royal Over This Manning

Manning, Utah, April Fittings are

Some parties came over from Mercur
yesterday and started to sink on the
Crown Point property. When asked to
vacate they refused, and then a gen
eral battle ensued, in which stones.

used. 1t ended in a draw, by both
parties withdrawing their forces. Later

some time past ore thefts from several
properties have been numerous. This
has been particularly true of the mine
of which Mr.. Hutchinson is superin-
tendent. It was known that ore was
being stolen in small quantities right
along, but the superintendent was un-
bile 20 detect anyone in the act. The
richness of the ore made the aggregate
of the thefts very large, and Mr..
Hutchinson concluded to make an in
Vestioation.
AS a result he has in his possession
the records of shipments of ore from
Silver City by men who work in the
Trade Dollar and other mines and some
men who have never been known to
work anywhere, much less in a mine.
He secured the names of the shippers
and their receipts to the smelters, the
data embracing an interesting lot of
information. He does not intend to
prosecute in any of the cases, as it
would be fruitless, owing to the diff
Guilty in Identifying the ore, but he
knows those who have shipped other
folks ore and will keep a sharp eye on
them.
One smelter received a shipment of
four pounds of ore that returned the
shipper SIG. The man who shipped it
was an employee of the Trade Dollar.
He carried the rich stuff. out in his
pockets.
Superintendent Hutchinson has pur-
chased a, new hosting engine and the
work of sinking from the Blaine tun-
mel will be commenced at once. He will
go down 300 to- 400 feet. This will give
a working depth of 1900 to 1900 feet
from the surface.
Asked about the report of the threat
ened strike on the Trade Dollar over
wages, superintendent Hutchinson said
there was nothing in it. The men
were satisfied. He said the wages
would be increased with a rise in the
price Of silver.
In the east, Mr.. Hutchinson said, he
heard many inquiries for mining prop
erty. Hundreds of men were anxious
to invest if they could secure fair pros
poets at a reasonable price. He be-
lieved Idaho would see a good many of
these investors in the near future.

paying mines, and it begins to look as
IL this prediction would be amply yeri-
lied, judging from recent reports from
this promising camp, and that within
the next few months several large
bodies of ore will be uncovered within
a RADIUS or mile or two in the Silver
City and Diamond region.
The showing in a number of the
properties there is already most en-
couraging, but there is none that is
coming to the front with any greater
rapidity than the Triumph, in which
two important strikes have been re-
ported within the past two or three
weeks, and it is the opinion of expert
enced mining men who have recently
visited this property that it is the
making of heavy producer of the
precious metals.
Inc last strike, which was reported
less than a week ago, was in the face
OF cross-cut from the drift that was
run from the bottom of the 10O-foot
shaft. This discovery consisted of a
tWo-foot body of ore in which there
We're eight inches of high grade ore.
After prosecuting this, however. John
a. Kirby, the manager of the mine,
came to the conclusion that it was
nothing but feeder to the main vein,
SO he continued the cross-eut on for a
Instance OF 70 feet, and yesterday he
wrote to Mr.. Theodore Bruback, one
OF the officers of the company, that the
indications were that the face was
breaking into another body of mineral
which he believed was the mother
lode.
1t will be known within the next day
or so if this is the case, and ii the be-
lief is verified, the Triumph can safely
be classed among the regular producers

1t is also reported that the Home
stake, in the near vicinity of the Tri-
1mph, is showing up good bodies of
line copper ore, and as this property
has lately been equipped with a first
class steam hoist, there is no doubt but
that it will soon join the ranks of the

GOLD HILL DISTRICT.
Oregon Gold Camp That is Coming
to the Front.


Colonel James A. Painting took a party
of gentlemen to his mines the first OF
the week, says the Democrat. of Baker
! City, Ore, and the party has returned
enthusiastic over the prospects of the
! district which is to be added to the list
of bullion producers this season.
The Burnt River Mining company own
all of the numerous quartz claims on
what has been known for some years as
Gold Hill. The mines are located q
miles down the river from Baker City.
four miles down the river from Durkee
| station and one mile back of the river
| itself. The openings on the lower veins
are located some 800 feet above the river
and from that point to the summit 1000
showing the existence of at least ten
parallel veins. Each one of these veins
has been explored by drifts that run in
on ore from so to 125 feet.
The ore in the veins runs from 20
inches to four feet in width, and in
assay value from 81 TO 500. The ores
are pure quartz. brown to white in color,
and carrying through the main body free
gold. tellurideS. and traces OF copper car
Donates: while next to the footwall the
vein is heavily impregnated with rich
SulohuretS.
A crosscut tunnel has been started on
the Spring Gulch mine. to cut all of the
lodes at nearly right angle. This tunnel
is already in over 300 feet, and has cut
four foot wide body of ore. Drifts and
slopes on this ore are now being started.
and the mill will begin work upon it as
soon it can be put up. This main
tunnel IN addition to crosscutting to
known veins should expose one or two
more, as there are surface indications of
their existence. When the main tunnel
is a little over 1000 feet in length it will
be 1850 feet below the summit of the
mountain. From this it will be seen that
a large amount of ore will be made ac-
cessible at a comparatively small cost.
The work that has been done since the
Cincinnati parties took charge reflects
decided credit upon the management of
the genial colonel. When he took charge
there were no buildings at the NINE and
the little three stamp mill. half a mile
away was IN bad order. Already the
main tunnel is equipped with T rails and
Traux cars and ore bins and water
reservoirs are building at the end of the
track. A large. well arranged, and we'll

pleted at the mouth of the gulch. and a

SALE OF THE DODGE MINE.
The Favorable Showing in the Rising
Sun

| William Johnston, recorder for Gold
Mountain district, says the Richfield
Advocate, has recently purchased w.
| G. Dodge's entire interest in the Fort
! Dodge group of claims on Gold mount
ain. The Dodge share was trifie over
oIe-half and the remainder is vested in
w. F. Snyder of this city. Messrs.
Johnston and Snyder therefore are now
| in full control of this promising group,
which is well situated in the center of
the Triangle formed by lines drawn
from the Annie Laurie to the Congress,
thence to the Breckenridge. Some
mighty fine looking quartz has been
taken from the Fort Dodge, and while
the group has not been developed to a
great extent there seems every reason
to believe it the sort of good thing to
push along.
Mr.. Johnston is at present cooking
for the force of men employed on the
Miller mine. He SAYS il will be folly
to attempt any outdoor work on Gold
mountain sooner than the first of next
month as the snow is still seven feet
deep on a level.
THE RISING SUN.
A letter recently received from j. NJ.
Bolitho brings encouraging news of the
Rising Sun mine, which is in the
Marysvale district of Mount Badly. A
tunnel in the Sun, owned by Judge W.
w. Wallace and Mr.. Bolitho, had been
driven 10 feet last year, when a horse
was encountered. For 80 feet the hole
pierced naught but barren rock, there
not being left a trace of the handsome
ore vein that had previously been fol-
lowed. IN 140 feet from the mouth
there were traces of the ledge again
visible, but it was only in broken and
irregular formation. Work on the tun-
mel was suspended last December and
for two months the ground lay idle
while two men were engaged in build
ing a blacksmith shop and cabin. About
the first of March Mr. Bolitho, accom-
panied by his mountaineering better
half, took possession of the newly erect
ed dwelling and resumed work on the
Rising Suns tunnel. Twenty feet more
has fetched them into the well defined
lead again, and the ore, whose picked
specimens have shown fabulous values
looks better and more plentiful than
ever before. The tunnel is now some |
l70 feet long, following an almost hori- |
zontal vein. In addition to it there is a
,0-foot drift on the property.

Stedman,s Poems.

Mr.. Edmund c. Stedman's verse is cor
rect in form and agreeable in sentiment,
but commonly suggests that the scholarly
author is upon most occasions not so much
inspired as resolved to write a poem upon
the given subject. The volume issued by
Houghton, Mifflin & Co. contains his poems
written in recent years and now first col
lected A number of them are commemora-
tive and written for special occasions. Most
OF the others are songs and ballads, some
of which have gone the rounds of the press
as F'alstaff's song, beginning Where's he

which was found there after his death:

two forms. First what would be His judg-
ment or the city? The question has only
one possible answer. Doubtless His con-
domination would fall most heavily upon the
well-to-do and prosperous who have taken
His name and do not His work Doubtless
the grief that He felt over Jerusalem
would be little abated over New York. And
yet He would find more to approve, more
to be hopeful about in the modern world
represented by New York than He found in
the world to which He came. Second, how
would He be received? Doubtless He would
be a hated disturbance to the majority. as
His living presence is now where it is felt
in it's reality. Doubtless He would be de-
spised and prosecuted as a fanatic and
disturber by the high and mighty and the
hypocrites as by the rabble and the prof
ligates. Doubtless neither the common
morality in living nor the business morality
would welcome the test of His justice and
purity. But He would find more who are
living in His spirit more who would follow
Him gladly, than He found at His coming
in Judea. He would find more charity and
brotherly kindress, a higher standard of
life, than He encountered in the society IN
which He began His mission, than existed
in Rome that crucified st. Peter. or in the
middle ages that built the magnificent tenn
pies in His name.
