Eagle was the talk Of the day yester-
day on The street and in the offices Of
the leading brokers, while on the floor
of the exchange and on the curb it
was a ready dealer at steadily ad-
Vancing figures
Sometime ago mention was made in
these columns to the effect that in
resurling operations in the exploitation
of this Camp Floyd property the show
ing was such as TO lead TO the belief
that it would not be long before
mineral carrying pay gold values would
De reached, and yesterday it was learn
ed that success had crowned the ef-
forts OF A Il. Mayne, who has had
charge of development work, and that
d fine body of ore had been disclosed
which runs wen il the yellow metal to
the ton.
Mr. Mayne, who is now in the city,
informs The Herald that in the former
operation OF the Eagle the shaft had
been sunk through the vein, which, at
the point Of contact. carried such low
values that its presence was not sus-
pected, the shaft being sunk on down
through the country rock to q depth
Of 400 feet, at which point work was
suspended Indefinitely.
When Mr.. Mayne took charge q few
months ago he began work in the shaft
at a depth of $50 feet, where the vein
had been disclosed but which would
assay but little in the precious metal
In fact, this was a barren spot in the
ore zone and very much broken. start
ing drift in this. he followed along
the vein for 100 feet when he encounter
ed fault, On the other side OF which
a nice body of oXidized ore was broken
into, and which has been cross-cut
diagonally for a distance Of six feet
without disclosing the hanging wall, the
whole body carrying gold values rang
ing from 81 to Sc, and The Herald is
Informed that it is believed that from
this level up to the surface there is
from 500 to LOCO feet Of good stopping
ground on the vein.
On the top of this announcement Of
a rich strike comes the statement that
a deal was conSummated yesterday
whereby A. II. Airs and his associates
had purchased a. large block of Eagle
stock, Sheets & Thompson negotiating
the sale, which was betW cen Mr.. Airs
and his friends and W. Z. Hubbard,
the well known mining operator, the
price paid for the stock not being given
TO the public, it being understood that
before making the purchase Mr.. Airs
made exhaustive examination as to the
extent and value of the new discovery.
The strike in the Eagle means much
for that portion of Camp Floyd dis
trict, and from this time on the prop
erty will be worked in a vigorous man
ner, another shift having already been
put on. and it is intimated that the
mine viii be able to boast of reduction
works during the present year.

According to the constitution and by
laws OF the Salt Lake Stock & Mining
Exchange, no member can join any
other exchange, and for this reason no
names Of any Of the leading members
of the old board appear on the list of

There is considerable difference of
opinion in mining and business circles
in this city as to the ACCESSIBILITY of
having an afternoon call, but d trial of
the experiment will decide the question
pro or con and if there is room for the
new enterprise it will surely succeed.

In every civilized country, rich and
Door alike have found restored health
and new vigor in Paine's celery COM
pound
Handwriting people of ordinary
means are TO be congratulated, says
an English writer in reviewing the
scientific work of the last quarter OF
century, upon having so easily
within their reach today a remedy
which the wealthiest and most influen-
tial persons must themselves use. if
they would get the best that modern
medical skill offers. Paine's celery
compound proves that the science Of
medicine has kept pace with the Won
derful progress which chaFacteriZes the
life Of the present generation"
The astonishing reputation that this
most wonderful of all remedies has ac-
quired is principally due 10 the word
Of-mOuth recommendation and en-
dOrsement OF men and women of the
highest business and social standing,
as well as of those in humber, but no
less important positions, who have
themselves discovered its merits.
Adeline, Countess Schimmelmann,
whose portrait is here given, in a re-
cent letter TO the Wells & Richardson
Company. speaks of friends of hers
who have been benefited by Paine's
celery compound, and who first advised
her to recommend it to her sick friends.
The countess. as is well known. is a
prominent member of the Danish court.
Her coming to this country has been
