RICH STRIKE AT MERCUR.
New Vein Found Carrying High
Values In Gold.

Mercur, March "a sensational
strike was made at the Snider this
week. While prospecting the property,
q. w. Kellogg, who has charge of the
work, decided to try operations on a
ledge that showed above The ground, a
short distance west of the original vein.
A Gaping of iron was found, and below
it a well defined vein of good teaching
ore, carrying considerable higher val
ues than has been found in any pros
pect in the camp. The news of the
strike has attracted many visitors to
Five Mile pass, and all are loud in
their praises OF the outlook for the new
company.
A steam hoist is now on the ground
and more men are being put to work
1t is the intention to sink the shaft tc
the 10O-foot level as soon as possible,
and see what the vein contains. Should
values hold out it will prove to be ore
of the most important strikes made in
the camp for a long time.
The incorporation papers of the COM
pany will be filed with the secretary of
state tomorrow Already 10000 shares
have been sold to local buyers and
more could be placed without much So
licttation. Property-owners in the
neighborhood are working hard on their
ground to prove up the value of the To-
calitv.
H. L. Benner of the Sacramento has
gone south to put men at work on his
property near st. George. George F.
Walker is in charge during his abb
sence.
The road to the Northern Light has
been opened up and some of the ore
brought through. AS the warm days
are making the roads muddy, however,
no more will be brought down until it
dries up a little. There is a great deal
of high-grade ore sacked w at the
mine and still more to sack, and before
many days teams will be kept busy
transporting it to the railroad
On the Senator Stewart a good vein
has been opened up, which has all the
earmarks of the Cedar Hill ledge.
The South Snowstorm company,
which owns a large tract of ground
south of he Romney group, is prepar-
ing to put a force of men at work. Two
shafts will be sunk on the property to
the vein, which is thought to underlie
all the ground in this part of the dis
trict

Messrs. Ben Sprenger and G. w. Keel
Visit Stateline District.

Messrs. Ben Sprenger, George w.
Keel and Robert Gorlinski have re-
turned from Stateline district, where
they have been on business connected
with the Ophir mine, recently acquired
by Mr.. Sprenger by purchase, Mr.. Keel
visiting the property as an expert min
ing operator, While Mr.. Gorlinslli sur
veyed the group of six claims for pat
ent while there.
In speaking of the Ophir, Mr.. Spren-
ger, as we'll as Mr.. Keel, alluded to it
in most complimentary terms, although
the property is so well known that it is
regarded in mining circles as being one
of the most promising gold and silver
mines in the southern country, it be
ing the opinion of both gentlemen that
this is the cream of Stateline, a, camp
that is prolific in its gold and silver
mines of more than ordinary merit. AS
a matter of fact, Mr.. Keel was most
favorably impressed with the district,
and spoke in glowing terms of the for
nation, the accessibility of the camp,
and the ease with which good water adj
vantages were secured, and he also
the mother Lode of that section, be-
ing a true tissure in porphyry.
At the present time a small force is
engaged in the operation of the Ophir,
in the workings of which fine bodies
of shipping and milling ore are ex-
posed, it being the intention of Mr..
Sprenger to increase the force in the
near future, the probability being that
ere long reduction works will enbellish
the property. which, at an early date,
may form the basis for another mining
Incorporation.
While in that section Mr.. Sprenger
made a water right location, taking in
a spring on Government Peak, in Ne
vada, about a mile from the Ophir
mine. and during his stay, assisted by
Mr.. Keel, a. thorough sampling was
made of the mine, and measurements
were made of the ore in sight, so that
when the data is completed and esti-
mates made, the tonnage blocked out
can be accurately determined.
Besides the Ophir, Mr.. Sprenger owns
a three-fifths interest in the Sulphide
group Of three claims adjoining, so that
for mining purposes he has all the
ground necessary.

ANTLER ANNUAL MEETING.
Excellent Showing In the Property
Old Board Reelected.

The annual meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the Antler Gold Mining company
was held yesterday at the office of the
company on Main street About 300, 900
shares of stock We're represented. The
presidents report showed that work at
the mine for the past year had been
steadily prosecuted and had I|aen at
tended by excellent results. The work
ings are now in good milling ore, which
is in such quantities that it is fully
expected shipments will be made as
soon as the snow is sufficiently gone
There is a force of men now blocking
it out and the recent assays average
about $40 to the ton in gold and silver.
The treasurer's report showed about
$1,000 in the treasury and large block
of treasury stock. The company is free
of debt and on a thoroughly sound ba-
sis
The old board of directors were re-
elected with the addition of two others.
The personnel of the directorate is as
follows: Jacob Alt. president; John w.
Hughes, vice president; A. w. Ray
bould, secretary and treasurer; Thomas
Dobson, r. E. Hoag, E. F. Stolten-
berger anud r. H. Ensign, directors.
The property, which consists of six
claims on Lion Hill adjoining the
Northern Light, will be surveyed for
patent as soon as possible and work will
be continued with renewed activity
when the spring opens up.

fble treatment charges would be i'm

posed.
Pursuing the subject still further, the
gentleman above alluded to said: II
have been approached by representa-
tives of smelling companies who have
refused to join the proposed consolida-
ton and asked to make longtime con-
tracts for my ores, the parties stating
that they would not join any trust or
consolidation. OF course, l took this
proposition and statement with grain
OF salt, as Il have it on information
which believe to be reliable that these
outstanding shelters will eventually
join the consolidation, or as soon as
they can get their price, and, upon con-
sideration. l have put it up that one
or the other of these two propositions
is plainly true, viz: that they will or
will not join the trust or consolidation.
If do sell out to the trust or join the
consolidation, then, in my opinion, their
purpose in soliciting longtime con-
tracts must be to sell them to the trust
or consolidation at a profit and as a
part of their assets. If they do not
ton, L apprehend there viii be lively
competition between them and the con-
solidated company, the result of which
Will be a decided decrease in smelling
charges all around, from the benefits
of which the long-contract men will be
barred. In TACT, nave III upon the au-
thority of prominent smelling man
that treatment charges on medium and
low-grade ores, say from $50 down, will
be reduced in case a consolidation is
effected, the idea being to encourage
greater production. ! have had fifteen
years experience in mining and I have
always found that the long-contract
men are losers in the end. as improve
ments in metallurgy are constantly
being made resulting in steadily de-
creasing treatment charges on ores, of
which the short-contract men are the
beneficiaries."

The FL Rey Mining company has start
ed the sinking of a double compartment
shaft in the extensive development of it's
valuable Tintic property and by the time
the shaft has reached the 200-foot level a
steam hoist will be in readiness to go
still deeper, it being the intention to go to
the deep in the exploration of this old
time producer, and no let-up will be
chronicled until the 10O0-foot station is
reached. The company is now figuring on
a hoist. the equipment of which will be
heavy.
Hans OWE, the contractor at the Copper
Mountain, who is in from Beaver Lake
district, reports that the mine is in a
most flattering condition, as the working
shaft has now reached q depth OF about
40 feet the bottom being in a large body
of ore which carries good average values
in copper. Another contract has been let
and Mr.. OWE will resume operations

metallic values of $50 gold, twelve
ounces silver and six per cent lead.
Another consignment of this class of
ore from the Checkmate is expected at

the indications are that the company
will soon begin the payment of regular
dividends.
The Checkmate is located in Willow
Creek district, above Boise, and The
Herald is informed that as work pro-
crosses in it's operation the vein is get
