STRIKE IN THE UTAH.
High Grade Mineral Disclosed In
This Valuable Property.

Word was received in the city yester-
day that body of exceedingly high
grade mineral had been uncovered in
the Utah mine, at Fish Springs, Super
intendent H. p. Kruse writing the COM
the 500-foot station, in a cross-cut 80
feet north of the shaft. a vein had been
encountered which showed assay values
of 1,0sS ounces silver and 62.5 per cent
lead 20 the ton.
According to information obtained at
the Office of the company in this city,
the strike was made in virgin ground,
and although the full details of the i'm
portant discovery have not been re-
ceived as yet, it is believed the new
strike, when fully opened, will prove to
be bonanza, and one that will enable
the company to pay regular monthly
dividends for a long time to come.
At the present time, as Herald read
ers well know, the company is now en-
gagged in sinking a new working shaft,
at the mCG tn of which is to be installed
a new gasoline hoist and air COM
Iressor, while at the same time work
is in progress in the development of the
property through the old workings, and
consignments of high grade ore are
finding their way to the Salt Lake
market.
The officers ard stockholders of the
company are feeling highly elated over
the new discovery, and are very san
guine as to the outcome of the prop
erty.
1t is also stated that in the Galera,
the companion of the Utah, a discovery
of fine body of mineral has been made
on the S00-foot level, in new territory,
that carries values of 37.S per cent

Messrs. Sullivan and Harding are

Messrs. H. o. Morris and Frank Saw
age, who have contract for running
a drift on the Kate Sackett from the
bottom OF the 100-foot shaft, are in hard
rock and progress is slow. This hard
rock is the footwall of the vein, which
should soon be encountered.
Manager A. L. Morris of the Copper
Mountain has contracted for 100 feet
of sinking in the main shaft. which is

With the quantity of ore now in

win reach a depth of 200 feet this week,
and a drift will at once be started TO
tap the strong ore chutes that crop TO
the northwest. When these are reached
the Galena should be able to ship reg

A period of activity is promised for
