pay. N consequence there are many
yet u has been dem
onstrated beyond a doubt that good
paw does exist on these creeks. As u
evidenced by the outpu; of several
claims. on Dominion one OF these
claims is owned by Captain Hansen
and worked by Douglas WateTml n.
young California mining ems. nser, a
graduate OF Berkeley. Good pay has
been struck in apparently ineNhausti-
bic quantities. An example OF the
other class Is the claim owned BY Il r. |
Davis and Lou r. Haber OF san Fran
cisco. abandoned by lay men. Ihe
owners. however. confident OF striking
the yellow metal. have put men To
work to- develop the claim. On sulphur
the claim OF John ID. McGilivray. own
or OF the San Francisco Mining and
Scientific Press. Is yielding we'll. while
those OF many others have proven pro
fitless.
\ different condition Of Affairs exists
on I'll Dorado and Bonanza There the
pay streak Is usually found NJ n lower
/ level than the bed OF the creek. and
| there is little or no difficulty in getting
water on the bedrock without interior
ence with others rights. BY the WORK
done on No. 10. r. Dorado. this winter
IL has been proven absolutely that the
nav streak Is at least $50 feet wide.
while on Nos. - and - the pay IS near
IL as wide. The richest claims IN that
district have not been worked for more
than fifty feet OF their width. II the
proof OF the greater extent OF the pay
applies to others. then there Is yet
much to- be done on them with pTot'
to their owners. This much may IN
said of all the claims on both theSs
creeks. that the work done this winter
is OF far more careful nature thar
previously. and less gold will escap'
the searching eye of the miners thar
2 heretofore.
The prospect OF valuable quartz dis
: coveries is becoming more hopeful.
