French Gulch Properties

Frank Rossi has started up the mill on
the Brunswick mine and has large guam
tity of ore ready for crushing. 1t is esti-
mated that sufficient values are out to
more than pay for recent development and
addition of new machinery. The Bruns-
wick gives promise of being one of the
best producers in the French Gulch dis
trict.
Wolfe & Wheeler are developing prom
ising property on the south side of Sum-
gulch. The ledge is in a contact of slate
and diorite, varying in width from three
inches to two feet. About so tons of ore are
on the dump, which are estimated to carry
$50 per ton in free gold, besides a good per-
centage of rich sulphurets.
Geo. Leavitt made good cleanup on his
Washington lease for the month of March.
1t is expected that the owners of this prop
erty will operate it on their own accord at
the expiration of present leases.

Mining Notes

The river miners on the klamath are now
rushing operations to commence hoistinS
pay gravel. and a few have already started
their derricks. The river being down Ia
the low water mark so much earlier this
season than usual, the work of wing
damming will soon be completed in all the
claims for pumping out and hoisting. The
yield from river claims during the coming
summer and fall is expected to be better
than for several years past.
A. NJ. Carter, who is down from Trinity
for a few days stay informs us that the
dry season will work much hardship upon
many of the Understanding Searchlight.
The outlook for a good season in Lewis
ton and vicinity is better than for many
years past. A large amount of the river
bed with adjoining bars has been located
by new companies. and considerable work
will be done this season in opening ana
developing mining properties.-Trinity
Journal.
Henry White and Henry Musgrave have
discovered a four-foot ledge on the north
fork of Humbug. A crushing of seven
tons yielded s25 ton.-Sskiyou News.
Quicksilver has been found by a Stockton
we'll digger in the hardpan of a basement
in that city six feet below the surface ot
East Main street. The extent of the dis
covery has not been determined. but the
Record seems to think it one of value.
The pay roll of the Senator mine, In Sal
Diego county, is nearly $4,000 per month
and the mine is considered fine property
the ore averaging $40 per ton in the mill.
1t is foregone conclusion that there vii
be falling off this year in the volume oi

age of water, but there will be great in.
crease of activity in quartz mining and q
corresponding increase in the total output
of gold from that source.
There is sufficient ore on the dump Of the
Garcia mine, twelve miles south of Wick
cnburg. In Yavapai county, to keep the
new ten-stamp mill, for which the frame
work has been erected, pounding steadily
for a considerable length of time-Yuma

A Coffee Creek Discovery

If indications count for anything, mine
of unusual value has been discovered about
two miles above the mouth of Coffee creek
on Scorpion gulch. Toney Peterson and
Mat HOWE made the locations few weeks
ago and all examinations made up to the
present time give indications that a prop
erty has been found that in the near future
will keep a large number of stamps profit
ably employed.
The ledge, from six to nine feet wide,
can be traced on the surface for over 1000
feet and will go from IS per ton up in free
gold. Neither end of the pay shoot has
been reached as yet. The locators have
crosscut the ledge on the surface at vari'
Gus points along its course and every
where meet with the best results. If the
shoot will continue as depth is attained
and the owners have every reason to be-
lieve that it will-this property will de-
velop into one of the best mines of Trim
ity county.-Redding Searchlight.

Report From the Wedge

A report was received this week from
Superintendent Mcmahon of the Wedge
mine, Randsburg, at the home office. LQs
Angeles. Superintendent Mcmahon reports
that in running a cross-cut at the 25O-foot
level they discovered another rich pay
chute, from twelve to fifteen inches In
width, and which he estimates will aver
age not less than s24O per ton. He also
reports that he expects to make another
mill run of sixty tons of ore about May ISL
next.
What the Wedge has done and what 1t Is
again doing under its present emcient
management mark 1t as one of the most
wonderful mines in the Rand district And
yet it is safe to say that what has been
done in the Wedge could be done in numer-
GUS other properties In that district under
equally efficient management.-Los Anga-

A Floral Model of the Maine

Forty officers of the Irish-American VOL
unteers in full uniform and accompanied
by their buglers and color-bearers attend
ed high mass at ST. Agnes church and
saluted the Host by pointing swords. Be-
fore service they presented to the church
beautiful floral model of the lost battle
ship Maine. After the services hundreds
of Catholics from all parts Of the city
filed in and out of the church to view the
eift. 1t is nine feet long, twenty-four inches
beam and three feet deep. The masts, tur-
rets, cannon, flags and all are there rep
resented, and the whole is artistically light
ed by electricity. This unusually large
and beautiful piece of floral work will re-
main on view in the church as long as 1t
is possible to keep the flowers fresh.-New

A Lessened Gold Yield

It is highly probable that the gold yield
of California for this year will show ma
terial falling off in amount, as compared
with the last few years. The water sup
ply this season will be exceedingly scarce.
In the higher mountains the snow, which
is the source of the water In the streams, is
much smaller in quantity than usual at this
season, and the streams will run low long
before they usually do. This, of course,
means scarcity of water for the miners.
The gravel miners will not be the only suf-
ferers. In these days most OF the larger
and many of the smaller quartz mines de-
pend on water power for their mills and
machinery. Comparatively few are
equipped with both water and steam plants,
though some have steam power to be used
in case of emergency. 1t looks now as II
some Of those mines with only water power
would be compelled to close down possibly
for one-third of the time this summer. In
other cases, where it can be AFFORDED
steam plants will be provided. The ditch
companies will have such scant supply
that their customers cannot all be provided
with as much water as they want. Inc
mining community realizes this state OF
affairs and is preparing as far as possible
to meet 1t. River-bed mining is one branch
of gold mining which will be benefited. and
numbers of new places will be worked this
summer, when a lower stage OF water IN
the rivers is expected than has been the
case for years. Lots of new wingdams and
water wheels will be built Another thing
too, prospectors will be able to work IN
the higher ranges this season month or
SO earlier than usual. owing to the small
amount Of snow. But, generally speaking,
we can scarcely expect to look for so pros
porous a gold mining season this year as
we have been having of late. 1t will be all
the fault of the scant supply Of water, since
more mines are now being worked than
ever before.-San Francisco Examiner.

Grizzly's New Stamp Mill

A new stamp mill Is being put up at the
Grizzly mine in Yavapai county. A large
amount of ore is now on the dump, and it
will all be worked as soon as the new mill
is in place, a previous run of several hun
dred tons in another mill having given
very gratifying results. The pay streak in
the mine is twenty inches wide and the
granite formation on either side is so full
of rich quartz stringers that the rock will
