National Educational Association
Meeting.

For the meeting OF the National
Educational association at Buffalo in
1896 the excellent service given by the
Union Pacific was commented on by
all those who had the pleasure OF
using that line. This year our educa-
tional friends meet in Milwaukee, Wis.
July to 9. and members of the asso-
citation and others from points west of
the Missouri river. should by all means
take the Union Pacific
The service of the Union Pacific via
Omaha or Kansas City is the very
best. The equipment consists of,hand-
some day coaches. chair cars, Pullman
buffet and drawing room sleepers,
dining cars and buffet smoking and
library cars. Fewer changes than via
any other line. One fare. plus $3.50 for
the round trip will be the rate from all
points west of the Missouri river for
this meeting.

SOME TINTIc HISTORY.
Record of the Location of Several
Old-T;me Producers.

Old-T;me Producers.
The Silver City Star, in it's review OF
the history of the camp, says:
In our present issue we continue the
record of locations and discoveries in
the spring of 1872. the third year of the
history of Tintic's development
The Scorpion lode was located March
%. 1872. by Jacob Hofer. Joseph Gerber
and others. The locators sunk q. SHAFT
on the property over 30 feet deep
through rock which is proverbial as be-
! ing the hardest ever encountered in the
south end of the district but never
succeeded in finding any ore in the
ground. The Scorpion lay parallel with
the Julian Lane lode and is now en-
braced in the famous Julian Lane
group.
The Gold Hill was located March so,
1872, by James Yates. Richard Course
and others. The property was extern
sively worked in the early days and
produced considerable high grade ore
The ore vein on the ground is verv
wide, at one time requiring is foot

the Gold Hill was steadily, producing

and covered up the tools, and was
never dug UP again. The mine is now
a part of the Golden Treasure. Course,
one Of the original iocators of the Gold
Hill, afterwards committed suicide in

The Hop Creek Springs was located
April Il. 1872 by Charles POINTER and
William Buford. This location is on
the site of the recent reported gold dis
coveries and was relocated about two
weeks ago by L. c. Doty, D. b Cronin.

The Nettie was located May 70, 1872,
by H. H. Sowles and others. The
property lies on the east side of
Galena Hill. and has produced some
rich ore. It is now embraced in the
George Kappies group.

THE GREAT MERcUR MINE.
Brief Description of This Magnii-
cent Wealth Producer.

Mercur, May 23.-The Mercur mine
being the oldest, has done more to lay
open the Camp Floyd ore veins than
any Of the ether properties in the camp
and visit TO this famous property
leaves an impression not easily ef-
faced. Yesterday your correspondent,
escorted by Superintendent Edwards,
went through the greater portion of
the mine. and while aware of the ex-
tent of the ore body in many places,
was unpTepared for some of the facts
thar he learned.
Following down the Resolute incline,
levels are run of every 100 feet, and
along these levels drifts are run, con-
Meeting with the levels above and
below. The Resolute is in about 1000
feet, and in all that distance there are
large blocks of ore 100 feet square and
varying from II 10 So feet in thickness.
In the cross-cuts all the timbering
is being done by square sets. so that
when stopping is commenced no change
in the timbering will be necessary.
Your correspondent was informed that
the timber bill almost equals the labor
bill III the working of the mine.
We were led through tunnels and
drifts, until weary of walking, and
still there were unexplored workings
that time would not permit Us TO visit.
In all there is about seven miles of
workings in the mine. The Resolute
tunnel is about 1000 feet long, the Ruby
1900 and the Matte incline has runs
ct q depth of 300 feet The old Nimrod
workings are being quarried at the
surface of The ground and a large face
OF vein matter is exposed.
From the Resolute ground four up
raises have been made and at dis
lance of 30 feet above the old vein a
new body Of ore WAS encountered. Up
raises were also made from the Ruby
and the same ore body was found. In
this new vein q space of 500 feet long
by soc feet wide and in places 10 feet
thick has been opened up in the last
few months.
One Of the most interesting parts of /
the mine, is a chamber in the Ruby !
where the ore body is from 20 to 81 /
feet thick. and values found by De /
Lamar in his explorations last winter I
ran as nigh as $50 per ton This part /
and is used only when circumstances
prohibit the shipment of the usua:
tonnage. when values are kept up. and |
the usual dividends made possible by
the shipment Of ore from this point.
During the period when snow troubled
the railroad management, ore from this
treasure room kept up the usual values
In cyanides, but at present there be-
ing ample transportation facilities. the
rich ore is undsturbed.
Notwithstanding the thousands of
tons treated, but little stopping has
been done and the vast ore body is
untouched. The mine has
been furnishing an average of 30 tons
per day nearly all of it being taken
out while blocking out the ore body.
This ere averages so per ton so that
the output of the mine amounts TO
s., 100 per day in gold The pay roll ,
amounts TO $4,000 per month. and 125
men are employed. Added TO this are

his house Mr. Dunn has had two men
for several days building a fence about
his dwelling house, and yesterday af-
ternoon in sinking a hole in which a
post was TO be placed, they encountered
ore
There is a difference of opinion as
to the value of the find. some claiming
the ore is not in place and has been
spilled there from wagons hauling TO
the Horn Silver smeiter years ago.
Others contend that the ore is from a
ledge in place.
In support of the latter ii can be said
that there are many people in Frisco
who believe that in an old cellar in the
camp a four-foot ledge of lead ore
exists. The men who excavated the
cellar. it is said. kept the strike quiet
intending to get hold of the property
some time and work the ore, but the.-
drifted far away without ever being
able to secure the ground. 1t is claimed
these men confided in friend the in
formation of the ore, but would no.
divulge the location. It is suspected
the cellar was under a house near
where Mr.. Dunn lives. This house was
torn down a few wears ago and the
cellar has been filed up.
Mr.. Dunn, while not excited over the
find, is of the opinion that enough work
should be done 10 determine if the ore
is in place. and this much he will have
done in a few days. He has taken
the precaution to place a location no.
tice upon it to prevent anyone else
from locating the ground.
j. Y. Dunn, his son, claims he found |
the ore in another place on the lot two |
months ago, but had kept the matter 1
secret. desiring to investigate when he !
had leisure. and today he is exhibiting |
a sample of the first ore found.
The discovery is situated upon the |
townsite. for which the Horn Silver |
company holds a deed. Rich !
ard Grace. one of Frisco's pioneers, |
claims he holds a deed to the ground |
also. Meanwhile Mr.. Dunn continues
the building of the fence, while he
sings. You cannot play in our yard
or holler down our prospect hole

On Thursday of this week Ringing

large an amusement enterprise as the
Ringing show SO far west has hitherto

this season and take their entire show
