| A. A. Noon of Provo the veteran min

Four Aces would pay dividend inside of
one years time.
Some time ago, it is understood, bond
and lease to eastern parties was given on
the Caine Springs gold mine on Gold
mountain, in the Deep Creek country,
and it is stated that the time is now
nearly up and that it is more than likely
that, this valuable property will change
hands in the near future.
Superintendent Rome Wheeler of the
South Swansea, who has been in the city
for the past few. days, will leave for this
dfvidend-payer this morning. The South
Swansea has been shipping quite heavily
of late and now has five cars of good ore
on the market. besides which it has six
cars en- route to the sampler and is load

the mine.
The work of searching for the ore body
at the North Swansea in Tfntic, between
Mammoth and Silver City, is being
pushed with vigor The shaft has already
reached depth of 275 feet, from the bot

date.
j. e. Beveridge, the experienced and
successful mining operator, under whose
supervision magnificent bodies of good

workings of the New Mammoth mine at
Bingham, was in the city yesterday on
business with the company Mr. Bever-
idge, in speaking of the New Mammoth
states that it is showing up in most
gratifying manner as the work progresses
in its development. and that work in the
erection of the new mill is also progress

says, a fine water supply adequate for all
purposes, is being developed a thousand
feet or SO from the mine, which can be

The Antelope Mine.

Charlie Andrews, the successful Nephi
merchant, who was in the city yester-
day, speaks most encouragingly of the
new lead discovery a. few miles south
east of Black Rock in Willard county.
The property is located in what is
known as the Antelope mountains, the
discovery being "a big blowout of spar
carrying heavy values in lead, assays
from this body of mineral showing
metallic contents of 52.2 per cent lead,
8 ounces silver and a trace in gold to
the ton.
The Antelope is owned by Mr. An
dreWs and Walter James of Black Rock,
and it is understood that it is the in
tention of these gentlemen at an early
day to begin new workings in it's de-
velopment and to start 5OO-foot tun-
mel with the expectation of cutting the
ledge at considerable depth from the
surface.
The property was examined a short
time ago by L. U. Goliath, the veteran
mining expert, his report being to the
effect that it should open out into
big mine with sufficient development.

New Copper Find

D. J. Frew, the well-known mining
operator, will leave for the south this
morning, with the intention of meeting
Tom Ferguson at a, new copper dis
covery made at a point between Mon
roe and -Marysvale, almost on the line
dividing Piute and Sewer counties
Mr.. Ferguson is directing operations
in the development of this copper pros Z,
pect in the interest of c. S. Holme1
and the indications are that it will opsl
out into bonanza, as the ledge is from
four to five feet in width, and carries
values running from to 40 per cent in
the red metal.
The find was only made during the
past month, and it is but three miles
from the railroad and easily accessible.
1t is believed that it will soon rank as
a paying proposition and find a place
on the list as another producer for the
southern country

RUNNING FULL CAPACITY.
The Great Sacramento Now Looking
Better Than Ever.

G. r. Boutwell, and r. E. McCon-
aughy, manager and secretary of the
sacramento, who have returned from
an inspection of this bonanza mine,
state that it is looking well in all Of its
workings, and that the<e seems to be no
limit to the fine bodles of good gold
ore being blocked out in it's workings.
In speaking CT the reduction works at
the mine. Mr.. Bothweil stated that the
plant had just been started up to its
full capacity, $50 tons daily, the mill
having been run at only 100 tons for
sometime past, the delay in the increase
in the tonnage output being due to the
non-arrival of crusher supplies, which
have been on the road for the past
three months.
The annual stockholders meeting of
the company will be held on the 9th
of this month, and it is anticipated the
report will be of most in
teresting character, and gratifying to
the shareholders of the association.

call at 1870 a. m, both to take the
chances on the curb business in the af-
ternoon.
The representative of the Utah ex-
change, however was of the opinion
that it would bedifficult to arrange for
the 1880 call, arguing that the board
would prefer to begin at 100 p. M
Both exchanges are beginning to real
fze how senseless it is to hold so many
calls, and 1t is believed that affairs will
eventually be arranged to the satisfac-
ton of all concerned, the concensus
of opinion among dealers and investors
being that it would be more preferable
to hold the calls in the morning, thus
leaving the afternoon for the curb.
