HIGH-GRADE GOLD ORE
Surprising and Pleasing Revelations
In the Sacramento

No one acquainted with the Sacra
mento mine, the popular dividend-paver
at Mercur, and its workings, was great
ly surprised to hear that in the ex-
ploration and operation of this great
gold mine a fine body of high-grade ore
had been uncovered, although, for mill
ing mineral this character of rock is
something extraordinary, the ore being
of such value in its gold contents that
II would easily bear shipment to the
valley shelters.
AS Will be seen by referring to a
Herald special from Mercur, which an
pears In these columns, a splendid
strike has been made in this mine
which, already, is noted>for it's gigantic
bodies of good teaching gold ore ex-
posed, and the report of the discovery
viii doubtless create considerable stir
IN mining circles as soon as the details
of the find become generally known.
a hint of the disclosure just made in
the Sacramento was received by a few
Salt Lakers yesterday, although the
matter was kept as quiet as possible for
obvious reasons, and still there was
more or less inquiry for the stock of the
company in the afternoon.
AT the office of the company the truth
Of the report was confirmed, although
the officials of the association were in
tliHSu 10 nc very conservative IN the
matter, the statement being made that
in the face of the 50foot incline from
the lower or mill tunnel a sample had
been taken on Wednesday of this week
which showed gold values of 1852 to the
ton, the breast Of ore being the fun
width of the workings. while the aver
age assay of the entire fifty feet was
SIS to the ton. the values often Showing
from $50 to $50 to the ton in the precious
metal.

A GREAT SURFACE SHOWING.
j. D. Eeifer Corroborates Statements
Regarding the Columbia.

j. D. Eeifer Corroborates Statements
Regarding the Columbia.
In yesterdays issue of The Herald
mention was made of the Columbia
mine on Lion hill, adjoining the Chlor-
ide Point and Northern Light, and the
statement was made that in recent ex-
plorations made of the surface area.
of this group of claims it was found
that a strong ledge existed on the
ground from which surprising values
had been obtained, considering the fact
that the samples upon which the tests
were made were taken from the crop
pings of the ledge and at the very
Srassroots, the impression being that
this is a most important discovery.
Recent disclosures prove that the
statements made relative to this new
discovery were not exaggerated in the
least and Mr. J. D. KeifeT, at one time
the owner of the Columbia ground and
who is now one of the heaviest stock
holders in the company, corroborates
all that The Herald has said in the
matter, his only criticism being that
the article in question really failed to
express the Importance of the find
Several months ago Mr.. Keifer
noticed the ledge in question and he
decided to make a careful examination
made on the 18th instant, when it was
ascertained that this was an immense
quartz ledge with a width of at least
10 feet, while it was found that it was
traceable on the surface for 800 feet.
the vein being a fine gray quartz which
is well mineralized, samples being
taken which showed the presence of
silver and gold in paying milling
quantities even at the surface, one face
sample having been taken from a place
in the ledge from four to five feet in
width which, when tested by fire by
Currie, disclosed values of $40 ounces
silver and SO cents in gold, while two
samples taken from other portions of
the ledge gave returns of 1920 ounces
silver for one lot, and eight ounces sill
Yer and Il cents in gold for the other.
The quartz is splendid teaching
product and very similar in character
to that now being successfully treated
at the Chloride Point mill.
It is the intention to thoroughly
demonstrate the value of this new find
and a shaft is being sunk in its ex-
ploration, It having already been. ascer-
tanned that the mineral is increasing
in its metallic value with depth.

THE HERCULES OF STOCKTON.
Fine Showing of Ore Below the Cave
Disclosed In This Property.

Disclosed In This Property.
II. e. Zerbe, one of The owners Of the
Hercules mine in Stockton, in which a
cave was disclosed a few days ago. as
mentioned at the time in these col
umns, has returned from making an
inspection Of this promising property.
and he states that the finding of the
cave was certainly the forerunner of
the discovery of a fine body Of pay ore,
as already the showing is such as to
lead to the belief that it will not be
long before the Hercules is listed as a.
steady and heavy shipper of high grade
mineral.
AS previously mentioned, the cave
was found while sinking a winze from
the 450-foot level, at a point about $50
feet from the shaft, the winze having
attained a depth of about 60 feet when
the discovery was made.
Since then. according to Mr.. Zerba.
the Wine has been continued on down
through the cavity, and when about five
feet below the floor Of the cave a, fine
body of galena and lead carbonates was
uncovered, all pay mineral, the deposit
being four feet in width, in which there
is a chute Of high-g grade lead ore, from
which a shipment is being prepared.
and at the same time drifts are being
run both ways on the ledge, the indi-
cations being that the workings are
just on the top of a magnificent BODY
OF ore, for the occurrence of which that
section is so justly famous
Two shifts are being employed in the
operation Of the mine, but operations
win necessarily be slow until the hand
windlass at the mine is replaced by
better equipment, but, nevertheless, the
showing is most encouraging, and the
owners of the mine, Messrs. Zerbe. I.
A. Benton and c. q. Kitchener, feel
that in this property they have the
making Of a bonanza

San Francisco, Nov. 1S.-Mine owners
throughout the state are discussing the
effect upon CALIFORNIA; gold output of
the scarcity of water in the mountains
caused by the prolonged dry spell.
Colonel Doolittle, who is interested in
Placer county mines, says that the pre-

Donald, another prominent mining
man, estimated that the gold output of
Tuolunne county had fallen off more
than SO per cent because of an insult
ficient water supply.
Julian Sonntag has just returned
from an extended tour of some of the
mining counties. He says:
''All the mines about Neveda City are
shut down and only three at Grass Val
ley are being worked. In Tuoiumne
county and at other points many mines
are IDLE and will remain so until heavy
rains come A great many mines have
not been worked for months because of
a lack of water. On this account Cali
