A BIG MINING SALE.
w. b. LAWLER BUYS THE DO
ANA GROUP OF GOLD CAM
YON--S3z, 900 INVOLVED.

During the past week a sale of mining
property in Gold Canyon district has
been quietly consummated, surprising
in magnitude any transaction of the
sort that has taken place in the county
for the past three years. The Joanna
group of gold mines, located in the
above district, about eight miles south
of Cherry Creek, has been bonded by
the owners, VIM. Watson ct al, to
w. b. Lawler, representing Oregon
capitalists, for the sum of S37, 900, OF
which a very substantial payment has
been made down. The balance is to be
paid in two installments, of which the
last falls due about April |, 1901. The
purchasers further agree to prospect
the mines to a depth of at least 200 it,,
by means of a crosscut tunnel, which will
be pushed forward at once with two
S-hour shifts under the direction of Mr..
Watson.
The claims comprising this group are
the Joanna, Joanna No. ?, Three Lad
les and Doubtful. Besides Mr.. Watson,
the fortunate owners are his wife, his
brothers West and Joe, Ernest Baker,
Mrs. p. Bonner, Mrs. M. A. Baker,
Miss Maggie Bonner, and Mrs. Katie
Jackson. The mines were located only
last April and, like so many of the big
bonanzas, they were discovered on
ground over which men had walked for
twenty-five years without suspecting
the presence of gold. The richness of
the rock at once caused an excitement
and large number OF claims have since
been located in the vicinity.
On the Joanna group there are five
distinct parallel veins OF white quartz
varyinglin width from inches to IT,,
all carrying free gold visible TO the nak-
ed eye. A mill test on 10 tons of the
ore yielded sp2 ton and a carload re-
Gently sent TO Selby 4 Co. gave returns
Of S75 ton The veins have been pros
pected in several places to a depth of
40 #. without any signs OF plnching or
diminution in value. In fact, every
thing indicates that with the advent OF
deep mining, a bonanza rivaling the
great Delamar mine win be developed.
Mr.. Lawler, who negotiated the above
sale, Is well and favorably known in this
County having successfully worked
and sold mines at Ruby Hill district
many years ago. OF late years he has
been engaged in the development o.

A Mysterious Disappearance.

The Millafd Progress, published at
Fillmore City, Utah, contains the news
OF the most mysterious disappearance
of +. w. Penny and son. of Kanosh.
The two men started prospecting last
November in the neighborhood of Wah
Wah Springs, on the border of this
county and have not been heard of
since. The Sheriff of Millard county
has commenced a diligent search, but
not trace of the men or their outfit
has yet been found, and foul play is
feared. Both men had families.

Frank Paul Wins His Suit

The damage suit of Frank Paul VS..
Rocco Cragnaz was finally decided by
the Supreme Court Of the State last
week. The Judgement for s22S7. so,
which was secured by Mr.. Paul last
May in the District Court, is sustained
by Judges Bonnifeld and Massey in a
long and able opinion; Judge Belknap
dissenting. The case has been hard
fought from the beginning by as able
counsel as can he found on the Coast,
and is notable victory for Messrs.
Wren and Murphy, attorneys for the
plaintiff.

We congratulate the mine owners of
Gold Canyon in securing the attention
to their properties of so energetic and
capable mine manager. From all ac-
counts received by us regarding the

guarantee that essential requisite, we
feel assured that during the coming
summer we shall see lively camp at
Gold Canyon.
Should Mr.. Lawler conclude TO per-
