Notes from Sodaviile.

ED. BULLETIN Hero are few
items from Silver Star:
Frank Lothrop has nice little
batch of ore on the dump at bis
mine and is finding quite number
of fine specimens in the rock.
The Bounce mine is producing good
ore from the 300-foot level, and the
mill is running steadily.
In the Calico range, east of town,
Ranch & Vaughn have lots of ore on
the dump and intend to have crush
ing at Stewards mill shortly. From
Mornings | have seen | think they
have q mine.
The Vulcan Company is doing a lot
OF work on the Parrot and have sunk
we'll for water between that mine
and Luning. 1t is down 100 feet and
the flow OF water is so great that it
will require steam pump to handle
it. 1t is a good thing for the COM
pany, as it will enable them to con-
centrate low-grade ore and supply
the mine and boarding house with
pure water, something which is alb
solutely necessary.
Cap. Fagin got back from Chicago
last week and is trying to locate
Gladding's Peak and other land
marks, to be certain he is here. His
idea OF Chicago is not fiattering to
its hustling inhabitants. He says he
didn't see a red blanket, man with
his breeches stuck in his boots, a
mule team nor quiet minute while
he was there. The people rush
around all day and into the night
till they give out and 60 to bed in
self.asfense.
Elmer Dunlap and Charley Ganong
came in from their mine at Bellevile
last week and give favorable report.
Billy Kellar came in from Monte.
yuma a few days ago. He says the
boys working for Stewart q Douglass
are doing well and will ship carload
In few days. They have been de-
layed by the weather and sick ness.
Phil. Mitchell injured his spine sit
ting on a hard, cold rock while wsrk-
ing the jig, and Bliss Robinson and
Cameron, the terrible Swede, bad
