lively each day. Prospectors and ex-

and quite settlement has sprung up
here. at the new townsite. The first
family to settle down on a lot in Sny-

and lodging house. Another business
place in operation is meat market
and general supply house owned by A.

The snow has almost left the roads
and travel is easy all over the dis

A number of new locations are being

on the Fish Creek side of the big range
where little. work has been done. The
entire camp has been prospected and

NEAR MT. MAJESTIC.
Good Copper Ore Discovered In the
Greene Claim.
Especial Observation-Disclosures


Park City, June 3-During the win
ter Robert Brighton has pushed stead
lily, though single-handed, the prospect
ing of the mining claims in which he Is
interested. The Greene claim near Mt.
Majestic. south of Brighton's, owned
by Senator j. L. Rawlins and Robert
and William Brighton, has just fur
nished an excellent showing of fine
looking copper ore. Thousands of peO-
pie have walked over this ground with
out discovering any naturalization. bur
Robert Brighton has always carried a
strong impression that the ledge con-
tanned good rock; so one day recently
he stuck his pick in the outcroppings,
which, when loOsened up, showed I'M
miStakable indications of copper For
the purpose of prospecting he dropped
down and started tunnel al a vertical
depth of seven feet below the discovery
striking the ledge in twenty feet a few
days ago. The vein matter has already
shown up twenty feet in width and the
hanging wall has not yet been reached.
In it appears the copper ore like that
on top and samples are now ready to
be taken to Salt Lake for assay. The
claim is the first ground located by
William S. Brighton, father of the
brothers.
The winters work on property of the
Mountain Lake Mining company, which
is situated southwest of Brighton's,
consists in extending the tunnel thirty
one feet, making its total length 6S1
feet. According to the survey the ledge
is only few feet further ahead. 1t is
well known that some good ore has
been taken from the upper workings
Two lodges appear-a gold quartz and
a copper, and some high values have
been obtained in both metals.
I.a h.
which has five distinct veins, is said
to show good copper ore. In fact the
presence of copper in these Brighton
properties is so marked that they have
attracted the attention of eastern par
ties, who are seeking copper mines

Promising Properties Are Now Being
Opened Up.
Special to The Herald


Price, Utah, May 3.-Noah Bartholo-
new formerly owner and manager of
the Price and Vernal stage line, is in
town tonight getting supplies to take
out to his copper property near Sunny
side. He has put down a shaft during
the last thirty days to a depth of
twenty-four feet, and has a small body
of ore that goes as high as so per cent
copper and small values in gold and
silver. The vein, which was small i'll
width at the surface, has widened out
as depth is attained. and he has great
hopes of making shipper there before
snow flies.
Near him and on the same vein. to
the south. Harvey Hardy and associ-
ateS from Salt Lake are putting down
good body of low-grade copper. No
shipments have yet been sent out but
there is every prospect of encountering
paying ore with few feet more of in
telligent work. The vein here began
twenty-five feet of work. has widened
out to over three feet. The shaft Will
be put down to the 100-foot mark be-
fore any drifting will be commenced.

ant. The country is easily reached, the
only drawback being the scarcity Cf
water. There is plenty of timber for
all mining purposes, in fact, more than
there is any use for. The solid forma-
ton encountered after ten to fifteen
feet is attained. makes the timbering
of shafts entirely unnecessary in most
instances.

There is great excitement in North
epn Muskingum county over the find
ing of oil in the test we'll being drilled
by local company on the farm of
Jay Shrier in Madison township. The
Berea sand was drilled into Saturday
with a good showing of oil and a
strong flow of gas, which is being pip
ed from the well to a sufficient dis
tance to prevent danger. A sample of
oil taken from the well was exhibited
at Dresden last night 1t is of the very
best quality and the Dresden members
of the company are very much enthus-
ed, over the prospects of securing oil
in paying quantities. There is a crowd
constantly surrounding the we'll and
the neighborhood is greatly excited
Operations have been stopped since
Saturday and the we'll has been guard
ed to prevent the igniting of the gas
by careless persons. The drilling will
be resumed today and after the Berea
rock is penetrated it will be shot in
the expectation of getting oil in pay

Gathering fruit, or raking hay,
Or driving cows, whistle away
