ON THE WEST DIP.
Daisy Explorations Are Most Pleas
ing to Company Officials.

Daisy ENplof2L1cnS are A-OSC G1SttS-
ing to Company Officials.
4. H. Mayne, manager of the Daisy
mine on the west dip of Camp Floyd
district. who partook of his Thanks
giving dinner in this city, informs The
Herald that as work progresses in the
operation and exploration of this pros
pective bonanza the disclosures made
are OF the most pleasing character, and
that the faces of the drifts on all the
levels of the property are in fine bodies
of excellent milling ore, while the
works at the mine are now treating
1927 tons of mineral daily, at a high
and most satisfactory saving of values.
In abiding to the new discovery
made while excavating for the addi-
tions to the mill, Mr.. Mayne stated that
a crosscut is being run from the second
level in the mine to intefSect it, the dis
&ance between the two parallel veins
being in the neighborhood of sixty-tlve
feet. and when the ore body is cut at
this depth it is believed it win add
much to the value Of the property, as
the ore in this second ledge is Of excel
lent quality and carries values of from
50 to 81 in geld to the ton in the bottom
of the tWenty-foOt shaft sunk upon it
at the time of its discovery, the full
bottom OF the shaft being in this grade
and character Of mineral, which is a
splendid teaching product, the indica-
lions being that the ore body is of
goo6ly proportions.
In keeping with the announcement
already made, the Daisy company will
soon declare its initial dividend, which
viii be paid out TO the shareholders of
the association as a Christmas present
and Mr.. Mayne states that the dividend
can be easily maintained and that it
viii be paid monthly hereafter for an
indefinite period.
In speaking Of west dip affairs, Mr..
Mayne said that work was progressing
finely in the development of the Cedar
pleasing showing Of good ore for the
amount of exploration carried on in the
opening UP of this ground, which gives
every indication of posing as a mine
before the flowers come again, and Mr.
Mayne is Of the opinion that the next
mill 10 be erected in that section will
be on this property.
Besides the Daisy and the Cedar
Hills, Mr.. Mayne is directing work in
the development and operation of the
Eagle, a short distance north of Mer-
cur, and he states that in drifts run
north and south from the 275-foot level
in the shaft on this ground large zones
of ore are being disclosed, the mineral
coming principally within the limits of
milling ore, and he is highly pleased
with the showing in this property, be-
ing confident that with sufficient and
intelligent development it viii in time
