The board of selectmen have been petit
toned by Hiram King, jr., and Il. G..
Elliott to lay out a highway reaching the
Webb Terrace at point near their dwell
ing. This would leave the present high
way at the pond Gate, this side of Mr.
Lambs. and follow the road leading to
Minard's pond. The board have held a
number of hearings but have reached no
conclusion as to the wisdom of the move
ment. There are other good building lots
in that locality, but the only dwelling now
there which would be eccomm dated would
be that of Mr. King. They have always
used this road to reach then place, but it
is not a highway, and they have only a
right of way over it, The decision is to be
announced later. While the dwelling is
lust outside the limits of the village corpo-
ration, the road asked for is wholly within
the limits, ard would add to the length of
the street system under the charge of the
commissioner.

r. E. Warnell has returned from an
EXTENDED trip tc the mines about
Marysvale 10 the sity.
Mr.. Warrell says the country is a
camp of tunnels, and that very little
practical mining has been done in that
section until lately. when mine owners
have awakened TO the fact that in or
der 10 get mines there they must do
some sinking on the ore bodies. Where
mis- has been done, he says, better val
ues have been obtained.
In speaking of the properties in the
north part of the Ohio mining district,
which he visited, he says the Great
Western will start up again in few
days. Operations will also be resumed
at the Elephant mine, which shows up
very enc0uragingly.
At the Monroe mine phenomenal

esty on an option of $25,O00 which he
refused.
The parties working the Copper Belt
property have recently transferred their

in character to that found in the

Mr. Warrell is interested in the
Wedge Extension mine, and visited the
section of the camp where it is located.
He says that property is looking eX-
ceedingiy well and everyone connected
with it is greatly encouraged over the
outlook

GRAND cENTRALs CONDITION
Manager Holbrook Explains the Ces-
sation of Ore Shipments.
Especial CorrespondenceD


Robinson, Sept. 21.-Speaking of the
mines physical condition General
Manager Holbrook of the Grand Cen
trail, this morning said that the tenn
porary suspension of ore shipments for
last week only-because they will
resume marketing again this week
was almost wholly occasioned by the
necessity of obtaining access to the
ore in the Wine running from between
the 600 and 700 to the 900 levels, because
it made it too expensive TO handle the
mineral so many times. Drifting has
begun on the 900 to tap the Wine
Continuing. Mr.. Holbrook remarked:
"As you know, I have been in poor
health recently and have scarcely been
able to go through the mine entire but
Mr.. Donnelly assured me this morning
that il / deemed it advisable he could
resume daily shipments of ore that
nets us SIS per ton, but it seemed pru-
dent to me to conclude our plans as
mapped out, and / advised him to con-
tinue on the present lines. The ore
won't get away"
Speaking of the Victoria, one of the
company's gilt edge holdings, on the
Eureka side, Mr.. Holbrook said that
the new shaft house was complete and
the hoist working in fine shane. That
sinking had been resumed at the
seventy-f ve-foot depth and that two
Burleighs had been put in. From the
present work it would seem as if they
should be able to make about eighty
feet a month. Later on surveys will
be made and connecting levels made
with the balance of the group in
Mammoth hollow.

STRUCK PAY DIRT.
West Mountain Placer Will Soon Be
Producing Gold.

Superintendent James Earles, of the
West Mountain Placer, came in from
Bingham yesterday and reported at
the office of the company that the
drift being run from the bottom of
the old shaft had encountered the pay
gravel. 1t came in at the upper part
of the drift and the first pan knocked
down washed out between Is cents and
20 cents in coarse gold. The drift is to
be continued till the rim-rock is
struck when mining of the gravel will
be commenced in earnest.
The Cornish pump is handling some
1,1e0 gallons of water per minute and
doing it with the greatest ease. Mr.
Earles believes the water can now be
handled without trouble and all kinds
of the yellow stuff is expected to be
hoisted to the surface in the near
future. OLD Binghamites have re-
peatedly declared that when the water
problem was solved the West Noun
tain Placer would prove a veritable
bonanza. Mr.. Earles goes back this
morning to hurry up the work of max
ing the old timers words good.

WEST T1NTIc DEVELOPMENT.
What Is Going On at the Orient and
Other Properties.

Judge o. w. Powers has returned
from one of his periodical trips to the
Orient mine in West Tintic. The judge
came home well pleased with the de-
Velopments made since his last trip
there. The shaft, when he left, was
down 10 a depth of 21S feet. The en-
tire bottom of il is in a highly mineral
lied forna ton, from which assay val
ues OF $3.50 in gold, aside from other
values in silver and lead, have been
recently obtained. The rock is also
heavily stained with copper. Better
progress is being made than was pos
sinie a few weeks ago. The extremely
hard rock has been passed through
and the formation where work is going
on is much softer, with every indica-
ton that an ore body viii soon be cut
into. 1t is the intention to carry the
shaft 10 the $50 level, when cross-cut
win be started toward the vein opened
on the $50 level. The claims have been
recently added TO the Orient group,
aside from the acquisition of some val
liable springs of water which amply
furnish the mine for all present and
future needs Six men are employed

Result of Earthquake That Shattered

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 21.-The steamer
Rosalie bears upon her stem mute
evidence of the general shaking up
which has occurred in the north. When
the steamer crossed the entrance of
Taku Inlet she encountered fields of
icebergs through which she had to
pick her way. Going into one of these
foes the steamer struck her nose with
force enough to break away portion
of the stem and iron plating that binds
it down.
The unusual quantity of ice, is due
Ito the breaking away of the face of

say landmarks have disappeared and
where green-fringed shores were be-

RICH GOLD ORE.
Sevehteen-ton Shipment From Blue
Bird Sells For So, 800.

P. Ryan Of the Blue Bird group Of
claims. which adjoins the Annie Lau-
ries at Gold Mountain. pulled down a
check yesterday which called for S156.06
for each of seventeen tons of ore he had
just marketed The incident is signifi-
cant in that it goes to show that rich
gold rock is being mined in the dis
trict which Expert F. c. Rutan recent
ly declared had a magnificent future
before it.
Mr.. Ryan's shipment was sufficiently
large to leave no doubt as to the value
of the Blue Birds ores, and that other
shipments win follow this one is prac-
tically assured.
