Electric Works Frozen Up.

For two or three days last week the
Golden Gate, the Chloride Point and
the Overland mills in Camp Floyd and
Ophir districts were closed down for
want of power, the extreme cold
weather of the past week or ten days
having interfered with the power plant
of the Telluride Power company just
above Provo, but it is learned that the
works are in good order again and that
the plants named above are now being
run as usual.
This is the first time that hind
rance of this character has occurred at
the electric power works, and it is
learned that the stoppage was caused
by the clogging of slush ice in the pipe
conducting the water from the canal
onto the wheel, both of which became
clogged so that further operations at
the time were impossible. 1t is not
believed, however, that recurrence of
this difficulty will be experienced, but
as it was, the temporary close down
was a knocker to the plants at MeTcur,
Sunshine and Lion Hill, which were
using electricity for power and light.
The new electric hoist for the Over
land is rapidly nearing it's destination
and it is expected that it will arrive
at the mine today or tomorrow. When
this machinery is put in and is in run
ming order the mill can be operated to
it's full capacity.

Stocks On the Curb.

All was activity on the curb yester-
day and the dealers and brokers wore
wings on their feet as they flew around
to fill orders for the leading mining
stocks, quite a number of which were
on the ascendancy and touched the top
notch before the close of business for
the day.
Among the active stocks were Ajax,
which was in earnest demand at 81;
Northern Light, which was quite &C
tive at 60 cents by the time the cleo
trio lights were turned on, while sales
of Star Consolidated were recorded at
S1.55. Joe Bowers was a favorite at q
cents in the bidding; Joe Bowers Elk

Strong Company Incorporates Or
Valuable Ground.

a deal was contaminated in this city
yesterday and another big mining en-
terprise was foated, which has been in
contemplation for the past six months,
being nothing less than the incorpora-
ton Of a strong company on a valuable
group Of claims at Tuscarora, New, adj
joining the Dexter gold mine on the
east.
The title of the new association, ac-
cording to the articles of Incorporation
filed yesterdays is the Tuscarora Gold
Mining company, the principal share
holders in the Dexter being, to a large
extent, the leading spirits of the new
company, the capitalization of which
has been placed at 100000 shares of a
par value of 81 each, the officers and
directors of the company being as fol-
lows:
J. S. Lal1in, president; John Dern,
vice president; S. 3. Miner, treasurer;
E. e. jenkins, secretary; E. H. Airs
and Peter A. Mckenzie.
The property on which the incorpo-
ration is embraced comprises the HID
den Treasure Nos. l and 2, the Frank
Marguerite, Comfort, Blossom, Leopard
No. /, L. and NJ, Uranus and Missing
Link lodes, the group covering some of
the most valuable mineral ground to be
found in this great gold and silver
camp, the merits of the property hav-
ing already been proved to a certain ex-
tent by work done in the exploration
of the vein on different portions of the
property, and as the company is even
now doing extensive work in the devel-
opment Of this ground, with the inten-
ticn of still further increasing the force
employed, it is safe to venture the as
sertion that in the near future the Tus-
carora will take rank as a, heavy pro-
Queer and dividend payer
