GOLDEN EAGLE STRIKE.
Important Disclosure In Conner
Creek Mine.


The BOYS who came down from the
Golden Eagle mine, says the Times of
Albion, Ida, report a rich strike in that
property in the bottom of a 40-foot
shaft. The character OF the new ore is
galena that carries a big per cent Of
gold. No assay has yet been made Of
the new find, but it is thought the ore
viii pay to ship. We understand work
viii be continued at this point on the
property and the ore body thoroughly
developed.
Since the strike in the Golden Eagle
the owners Of the Bimetallic will in ali
probability go to work again. This
property is fully as good as the Golden
Eagle, being on the same Vein. and the
success of the Golden Eagle boys viii
tend to encourage ali owners of mining
claims on Conner creek.
Work on the Cumora mine still con-
tinues in the long tunnel, about 60 feet
of the l00-foot contract being COM
pleted. We understand an offer of $15. coo
in cash was made to the owners last
week by a business man of Albion.
Mr.. HUntley, manager of the De La
mar Mining company in Owyhee coun-
ty, having seen q sample of the Cumora,
ore at the Boise fair, came here to ex-
anime the mine last week.
Mr.. Langford has several men at
work on the Melcher mine, taking out
and sacking as fine ore as ever came
out Of any mine on the hill The Mel
cher mine is rapidly coming to the
front as one OF the foremost properties
on Conner creek.

New Smelling Process Invented By
C. W. Wright.
THE OLD JOSEPHINE
STORY OF ITS DISCOVERY FIN
ALLY REACHES DENVER.
Important Disclosure On Common
Creek-After Idaho Mines-Bing-
ham Bulletin Brevities = Beaver
Lake Copper-Mistakes of Eastern
capitalists-La Sale Copper.

A process which bids fair to revolu-
tionize the smelling business is claimed
by c. w. Wright of Denver, who has
been in the city for a few days inter
esting local capital in the matter.
Mr.. Wright asserts that he can smelt
the most refractory ore, no matter
what kind, so there is not too much
lead in it, Tor 81 per ton, and alleges
he has plant in Denver which is now
handling so tons per day with the
greatest kind of success. He AYERS, too,
that when the work is done, the gold
and silver copper are all melted into
bullion and ready for sale.
The process is patented, and moth
ing beyond the general details have
been siVen out. The roasting is accom-
plished in three minutes, and then the
ore is subjected to a combined chemical
and electric process, which extracts the
mineral without any difficulty what
ever.
Mr.. Wright says he viii try the work
in this city soon, and knows when he
has shown what he can do, he viii be
able to set al the financial backing
here he requires. He contends his
process will completely revolutionize
the smelling business, and that mining
properties which have hitherto failed
TO pay, viii become good properties.

Mistakes of Eastern Capitalists.
Western Mining World.


One of the greatest mistakes made
by eastern capitalists is to seek only
for developed mines to purchase. AS
a general thing, owners of mines which
can be worked at substantial profit
have no need to look for purchasers,
and are not apt to look for them 1t
is for this reason that those who come
to the west for mines are disappointed;
that while they are offered partly de-
veloped or opened properties, the pay
ing or going mines are not then for sale,
except at what they consider high
prices. After man or company has
prospected. opened and brought to a
producing point a good mine, it is worth
as much to them as any one, and the
owners are unwilling to sell except at
a good profit. In fact, such properties
are seldom offered for sale. People
have to hunt them up. and then have
hard work to get bond on them, the
owners generally preferring to keep on
working. There are great numbers of
''going" mines with the necessary ma
chinery in the west, but the owners do
not let them be ''peddled" around for
promoters to bargain with. If any one
wants them they must make a good
offer and be prepared to prove their
intention of actual purchase. Other
wise propositions will not be enter
tanned. ThereFare plenty of good prop
critics for sale which need development,
machinery, reduction works, etc, but
most of the dividend-paying ones are
held for the legitimate profit to be made
from mining operations.

Bingham Bulletin Brevities.

Shipping has averaged light this
week.
Mayne's teams finished hauling a So
ton lot from the York last Friday.
The Julia Dean is again shipping. the
consignment being a lot of fine lead
ore.
Bill Eckman is jogging the Wasatch
dump and has a good thing.
Quite a number of locations, lode and
placer, have been made in this district
during the past week.
The Old Jordan & Galena mill began
running Monday, after tWo-days'
stoppage caused by the engine becom-
ing disabled.
The Dalton 81 Lark management will
probably soon begin work on the placer
of the company, next north of the West
Mountain placer.
The Dewey mill is finishing up a 200
ton lot of ore from the Red Wing, and
will start today or tomorrow on a lot,
1,500 to 1000 tons, coming from the Old
Telegraph.
Boy terminal station is completed and
the structure now being rooted and en-
closed. Work ali along the line is re-
ported progressing favorably.
A. ]. BEETLES, for the Boston CONSOLE
dated company. will put the old Mark
ham mill in thorough repair and add a
new table, intending to make expert
mental runs during the balance of the
year on ores from various claims Of
the company.
Hirsch & Shaw are preparing to do
continuous work this winter on the
Rosa group, at the head of Markham.
The Rosa is on the same vein as the
Ophir. 1t is giving up excellent milling
ore, and the boys have faith that with
more depth the quality will change to
shipping grade.
w. c. B. Allen. the well-known min
ing man, is starting work under bond
and lease on the Morning Star and
Morning Star No. 2, at the head of
Carr fork, near the Highland Boy. They
have been idle long time and the old
workings are caved. Some good mill
ing ore was formerly taken out.
Crouch & Benedict of the Zelnora are
now in a fine body of high grade ore,
and with two men in the stope could
keep Mayne's wagons busy. The upper
road, however, is dangerous, especially
when coated with ice or snow, and
teamsters do not like to tackle it. Mr.
Mayne this week brought down a 25-
ton lot, but with the first snowfall will
''yump the yob.''

TEE OLD JosEPHENE.
The Story Of It's Discovery Finally
Reaches Denver.


Concerning the finding of the old Jo-
sephene mine in Summit county, this
state, the full details of the discovery
of which have been duly chronicled in
these columns, the Denver Republican
says:
H S. Andrews of New York, who has
been in Salt Lake some time, tells an
interesting story of the discovery of al
old mine in Utah, supposed TO have
been opened by the Spaniards centuries
ago.
The story sounds like fairy tale,
ana yet its truth is established by the
fact that a company has been formed
for the operation of the mine under the
title of the Lost Josephene Mining
company. Whether the mine was
worked by the Spaniards or not, the
fact remains that u shaft and connect
ing tunnel have been found and are
now being reopened.
According to Mr.. Andrews, the dis
covery was made by a man named Bird
and his son. while they were prospect
ing about Is miles east of the KaHas,
Summit county, north Of Park City.
The two men came upon the shaft and
found that while it had once been tim
bered, The timbers had all rotted away.
a strong draft Of pure air coming up
through the shaft satisfied them that it
could be explored with safety, and that
there was another opening. The lat
ter they found in the shape of a tunnel
opening some distance down the noun
tain side. Obtaining assistance, they
descended the shaft, and, at the depth
of about 100 feet, found an incline
starting off from the shaft. At the
depth of $50 feet the shaft was found
clogged with fallen timbers, but by
dropping rocks through the interstices
it was found that the shaft continued
for a considerable distance. The tun-
mel was explored for distance of more
than 80 feet, the continual rush of air
satisfying them of the connection with
the shaft
Samples of quartz and tale were
brought into Salt Lake City the as
says yielding values of from $40 to
more than 500 the ton in gold The
property was subsequently examined
by Timothy Egan Of Salt Lake, who
found a ledge nearly four feet across,
from which numerous samples were
taken. At 80 feet the samples showed
value Of about $50 TO the ton, and
few feet further down the Samples
yielded nearly 5000 in gold.
Mr.. Andrews says that the theory
that the opening was made by the
Spaniards is based on the fact that no
where in the vicinity of the mine are
there any old stumps. All of the
stumps found are of recent date, and.
as most of the timbers found are in q
cTumbling condition from dry rot. it
is argued that they could not have been
taken from the stumps now in sight
The stun1ps from which those timbers
came have been rotted and buried for
generations

w. E. Pierce has returned from the

one of Captain De Lamar's experts to

examined by the expert, says the Boise

Mr. WEIGH and his partners have two
claims which they hold at $50, 600.
It is understood the expert came to
the conclusion that the properties have
not been sufficiently developed yet to
justify him in recommending their pur-
chase. At the present stage of develop

splendid showing, do not come up to
Captain De Lamar's requirements. 1t
