EUREKA STOCK EXCHANGE.
A New Feature For This Thriving
Mining Camp.

1t is learned that the thriving mining
camp of Eureka will soon be able to
boast of a stock exchange of it's own.
In fact, it is understood that the es-
adjustment is to be opened today,
probably in the afternoon, as dealings
on the board are to be governed by
quotations established ON the, floor of
the Salt Lake exchange in the mora-
ing. arrangements having been per-
fected to send out quotations from TINS
city TO Eureka by-telephone immediate
ly after the morning call of the Salt
Lake institution.
This is move in the right direction,
as it viii enable the residents of Eure-
ka and Tintic district to deal success
fully in mining securities without wait
ing for a day or two to learn what
stocks are selling at in the Hub, and
it will also stimulate the decided in
terest being taken in mining stock
transactions at the present time.
OF course the dealings on the Eure-
ka board will doubtless be largely con-
fined to Tintic stocks. still, the estab-
lishment of this exchange will enable
Tintic people to deal in any security
called on the Salt Lake board, the post
ing of quotations giving them the OPP
poTtunity of ascertaining the strength
and direction of stocks so that they
can place their orders by wire with
brokers in this city.

"This has been a. season of prosper
ity in all branches of the mining bust
ness"
With this Introductory remark a
heavy mining operator Of Salt Lake
went on to enumerate the different
classes of people who had already ben
Gifted by the revival of activity in
mining circles SO noticeable during the
past twelve or eighteen months.
In the first place, said he. the
business interests Of this city have
been stimulated and invigorated by the
steady stream Of wealth which has
been pouring into the laps of our citi-
zens in the way of dividends, the rev
enue from this source alone running
up into the many thousands yearly, and
even up into the millions, and it is safe
to say that had it not been for this
source of wealth business in Salt Lake
today would be duh and stagnant,
whereas, instead, it is brisk, and the
merchants are all doing well, which is
clearly to be seen by looking at the
daily bank clearings, which are nearly
double what they We're a year ago.
Then, again, look at the immense
amount Of money paid out by the long
list of mining companies to their en-
ployees, the aggregate distributed in
this manner exceeding in amount the
sums paid out in monthly dividends by
hundreds of thousands of dollars. and
nearly all of this finds its way into the
channels Of trade and commerce in
this state, as the laborer, the me-
chanic, the miner, the mine superin-
tendent and every attache of these COM
panies must live, must eat and dress
and therefore their weekly earnings
speedily find their way into the safes
of the merchant, and from there to
the vaults Of the big banking institu-
tions Of this city.
Other lines of business are also
stimulated by this active and healthy
activity in mining affairs. The old
prospector who has held on to his min
ing claims for many years, or, perhaps
for a few months only, suddenly dis
covers that there is a demand for his
holdings, and he either sells out COM
plete or joins the promoters in the for
nation of a company for the operation
and exploration of his ground, many
instances being cited where this pa
tient and perseyering class have been
able within a short time, to clean up a
small fortune, which, invariably, is
invested in valuable real estate in
Zion, and evidences of wealth thus ac-
CURED are to be seen all over the city
in the shape of palatial homes on the
fashionable streets and avenues of Salt
Lake, and in splendid business houses
which adorn the capital of the state.
THE mining machinery men are also
doing a rushing business, and never

PAYETTE RIVER GOLD.
Will Drain the Bed of the Stream For
Two Miles.

Through the instrumentality OF
young Idaho mining man, says the
Denver News, an abandoned placer
claim of great richness is to be re-
claimed by company composed of
number of the most prominent men
in Colorado.
In the office of the secretary of state
yesterday afternoon articles OF Moor
poration of the Horseshoe Bend Gold
Mining & Milling company, with
capital stock of 100000, were filed by
the following incorporators: a. b.
McGaffey. Lee Bunch, l. b. Porter,
/ Alva Adams, Luther NJ. Goddard,
Owen E. LIE Fevre, Charles j. Hughes
and Samuel w. Widney- The capital
stock is 100000, and the company IS
to. operate in Idaho and Colorado
Governor Adams, among others, be-
( lieVes that his company has secured
control of one of the most valuable
placer claims in existence, and appaf-
entity has plenty of solid foundation
j for such a belief. By means OF tun-
mel 700 feet in length, cut through solid
4 rock. it is proposed to drain the bed OF
/ the Payette river in Idaho for dis
lance of two miles, leaving the gravel
| that forms the bed of the stream access
Sible to the miners.
There is a history connected with
! this stream that enhances the interest
/ of the announcement that Denver
company is to sift its gravel in search
of yellow nuggets and dust About
/ 1862 a prospector, weary with tramp
| ing over the timber-clad mountains of
/ that section of Idaho, stopped one
| evening to water his burro in the Pay
cite at one end of what forms the
! horseshoe bend. Darkness closed in
upon him. and he determined to pitch
/ nh e he 1iNp
were abrupt and steep at that particu-
/ lar point, making it necessary for the
prospector to make use of his pail in
! shaking the thirst of his beast. His
! joy and surprise were great when, on
! the following morning, he discovered
"colors'' clinging to the bottom and
sides of his pail. In dipping for the
water the previous evening he scooped
up little gravel, which explained the
| presence of the gold on the metal sur
face That prospector did not travel
much further. Nevertheless, the news
! of his discovery spread rapidly, as
such matters will, and in the course of
a few months there was an unprece-
dented rush of miners into that locality.
For fifteen years the placer diggings
along the banks of the Payette were
worked continuously with great sue
cess, the estimated gold output being
something over S100,000,0O. At last
the gravel to be had along the shore
was washed clean of it's gold so far as
profits were concerned, and gradually
the miners took their departure for
more fertile fields.
The engineer who accompanied Mr..
Porter upon his inspection trip found
the distance around the curve to be
just two miles. The gravel is from
three to five feet in depth, insuring an
almost unlimited supply of material
for placer washing. Several hot
springs flow into the stream on the
curve, and the water from these will
be utilized for washing in the winter
time.

IN BEAVER COUNTY.
Renewed Activity In This Region of
Many Mining Districts.

From a gentleman who is just in
from Beaver county, a portion of the
state which, next to Tooele county
has more mining districts to its credit
than any other county in. the common
wealth of Utah, states that there is
quite a revival of activity in that re-
gion and that the outlook for the COM
ing year in the mining line is brighter
than for many seasons past.
As previously mentioned in these col
umns, Mr.. Sam Godbe and his associ-
ates have taken a lease on the old Cave
mine, in the mountains between Mil
ford and MinerSville, this old and rich
producer being in plain sight from the
wagon road which connects these two
towns.
According to The Heralds informant,
quite a number of men are now en-
gagged in the operation of the cave, the
workings following a good-sized streak
of pay ore. from which a shipment to
the Salt Lake market will be made at
an early day.
The Vicksburg, in old Star district, is
also showing up we'll. This mine is To-
Gated eight miles from Milford, and is
owned by Peter Martin. an old-timer
( in mining affairs in the southern coun-
try, and it is stated that the ledge.
which is a large one, carries values
as high as $95 to the ton in gold. while
the average value of the whole deposit
is $35.

Some surprise was manifested when
it was learned that David Keith had
been reelected Superintendent and

PASTOR AADREAE ROBBED.
Thief Enters His House and Takes
Away Clothing.

While the Rev. Gottlieb Andreae. pastor
of st. Johns German Evangelical Luth-
eran Church. on Fairview avenue, was
absent from the parsonage on Wednes-
day afternoon. the house was entered and
two suits Of clothing belonging to the
minister were stolen.
Mr.. Andreae, who had gone to a barber
shop, had scarcely left the house which
he is occupying alone during the absence
Of his wife in Germany, when a man in
his shirt sleeves assembled the steps and
knocked at the door. Receiving no am
swer he went to the rear of the house.
He returned In a few minutes with several
articles of clothing over his arm. The
man was seen by Mrs. Alberts, Of Kear-
ney avenue. a washwoman, who was
working at a neighbours house.
Mr.. Andreae, on returning. found that
some person had entered the kitchen by
forcing the door and had ransacked his
bed room, taking the clothing mentioned.
He reported the matter to the police. AS
yet no trace of the thief has been found.
