Sherman was wounded and brought to the
hospital at Washington his case was not
considered serious. Miss Wyer came TO
Washington for their marriage on the date
previously fixed. While she was en- route

Work Begun on the Gold Rock.

Frank Kempfer, Robt. Woodmansee,
Fred Walker and Owen Tierney have
begun work on their lease of the Gold
Rock, hrving moved up Monday with a
good outfit. They have moved into the
cabin lately occupied by E. Peterson,
and are comfortably fixed. They ex-
pect to push the main drift of the Gold
Rock ahead at least a hundred feet, and
ascertain what is in the hill. The face
is said to present considerable ore now,
although it has just gone through about
40. feet of a half-barren zone. Besides
this the boys are going to stope out
some ore in the tunnel which was ex-
posed by M. G. Erickson and E. Peter
son two years ago when they were leas-
ing the same ground. The streak is not
very wide, but the assays made are suf-
ficiently high to warrant the work of
extraction. 1t is hoped the present les
sees will open up a big thing on the
Gold Rock.

Lease of the Copper Queen.

B. O. Kempfer and Joe Hegener,
leasing on the Copper Queen lode OF
.Mackey creek have a 10 inch body of
ore which averages over 100 ounces in
silver besides carrying about 81 in gold.
This is not a new strike but this is the
first time they have permitted mention
of it to go into print. The Copper
Queen is developed by a crosscut tunnel
which taps the vein at a distance of AZ
feet. A drift of 60 feet has been run on
the vein, all the way along cutting
through a chute of ore which assayed
from SO to 200 ounces in silver. About
90 feet from the mouth Of the tunnel
the boys have sunk a shaft 25 feet, from
which they are now drifting north, hav-
ing gone about 25 feet on the drift.
The ore body is strong, persistent and
continuous. The ore is on the hanging
wall from which it is easily separated,
almost clear of waste. The gangue is
mostly auger ground and the lessees are
taking out about a ton a day. They
bale the. shaft by windlass, requiring
about three hours a day to keep the
water down. If the smelter returns on
their coming shipment appear to war
rant the expense they will at once put
in machinery to run the shaft down a
distance of two hundred feet, and Mr..
Kempfer told us that correspondence is
already begun to such end.
A HERALD scribe visited this mine
last Monday, and found the lessees
working on the ore. They expect to
ship two or three cars about the first OF
February. The Copper Queen is the
farthest south of the Hegener group
1t lies on the west bank of Mackey
creek and joins the Philippi lode on it,
north end.

This is what he was doing when a
friend came into the ROOM: He had a
large vase in his hand which he was
shaking with a spasmodic enthusiasm.
On the table was a white piece of pa
per, with the days and dates of the
coming month written thereon and
blank spaces attached.
On the walls were several charts, and
some peculiar looking instruments in
glass cases ,9posed snugly ON brackets
in the ner
Indeed it was a weird scene, but nei-

newcomer seemed particularly awe
stricken.
Sat it again, eh?" exclaimed the
friend, as he observed what the other
was doing. There seemed to be a sus-
picion of slight contempt, mingled V, h
pity in his tone.
The man with the vase merely nod

him, and went ON shaking the vessel.

His Health Improving.

Give McMillen, son of Mrs. Barnum
of Kibbey, is reported recovering from
his sickness o. long standing. Mrs. Bar
nun took him to Chicago more than a
year ago and placed him under care of
the best specialists IN the country, all of
whom pronounced his case incurable.
AS a last resort, when all such efforts
had failed, and doctors said the child
was dying, she took him to a Christian
science hospital, and almost Immediately
the patient showed signs of improve
ment.
Mrs. Barnum was in town last week.
Speaking to her upon the subject of
faith cure she says she no longer doubts
its efficacy. Once having been skeptic-
al upon the subject, she now is sure that
nothing else could save her boy, and
that prayer and faith did it.
Mrs. Barnum Is an intelligent lady,
| conversant upon general modern topics,
and a talk with her upon the case OF
her son is most interesting. The boy
is affected with spinal weakness and
general debility. If the Christian Sc
enlist can do what she says she knows
he can, the system is we'll worthy of Sc
rious consideration.

Another Big Strike.

D.. e. McGrail and II. d. Mclaughlin
have met the smile of fortune in their
mining ventures, and report a rich
strike of ore on the List lode. The
List lies just east of the Uncle George,
one of the Whipporwill group. 1t vas
once claimed under another name by
Robt. Frizzell, who eight or nine years
ago did some work upon it. The ledge
runs north and south parallel with that
of the Whippoorwill.
Mc(trail and Mclaughlin, who have
kept two men almost steadily prospect
ing on Carpenter creek for the last two
years, bought H. B. Mackey's interest
in the List lode, which then had a shaft
about Is feet deep cutting the vein, and
with a little ore in place. They at once
started a crescent tunnel to cut this
vein which they did on Dee. 20, at a
distance Of 1876 feet, and about 100 feet
below the surface. Gay Flynn and
John List were driving the tunnel. and
where they cut the vein they found a
solid foot of sulphide ore, lead and sill
yer. They sacked some of the ore and
came to town to spend Christmas. The
owners had the stuff assayod, and it is
generally understood that it run high
in both lead and silver. They decline
to give the figures but authorized the
HERALD to say that the returns are
quite satisfactory.
John List is also an owner in this
ground. He and Flynn have moved up
for the winter and started drifting or
the ore. The owners have spent con.
siderable money in the Carpenter creek
country, and their success in this in
stance is worthy of congratulation.
