DALYM|NE TOSTART UP
Order Goes Into Effect TOmor-
row Morning.
OVER $4,000 ON HAND
TO BE OPERATED THROUGH THE
ONTARIO.

After a close-dOwn covering a period
Of more than three years the DAILY
mine at Park City will resume opera
tons tomorrow morning by first TAX
ing up the further exploration of the
! 200 level and later, if work there
warrants it, by throwing a force into
the LEO as well, Such was the infor-
nation given cut by President r. c.
Chambers on his return from Park City
last night, and that the result will be
the continuance Of work and the final
placing Of the old DAILY which has al
ready distributed S2,925. 900 among it's
shareholders again in the dividend col
umns Of Utah's producers is verify be-.
Ieved by those best informed on the
character of the ore chutes which have
been so productive in the past.
In order to obviate the expense of
operating the hoist and air compress
s5rs at the No. 2 Daily shaft. the mine
is to be operated through the Ontario
at least until the 1900 level has been
explored and for that purpose the west
drift from the 1000 level of No. 3 on
tario has been selected. AS this level
Is identical with the 1,200 of the DAILY
and connects with the latter's No. Q
shaft. the scheme at once commends
itself as being a most economic one
This fact becomes all the more appar-
ent when it is explained that this drift
IS already equipped with 800 feet of
air pipe, which only needs adding to in
order 20 get the power with which to
operate the drills, to say nothing of the
fact that the trackage as well as any
number of cars will be at the disposal
of the management with which to han
die the ore and waste as it is mined.
With this arrangement, Mr.. Cham
bers says the lower levels of the DaIv
can be opened at a very greatly re-
duCed cost as compared with what il
would be If a separate plant had to be
maintained and everything hoisted to
the surface. Therefore. the stockhold-
err can count on a good showing being
made with the more than $4,000 now
In the treasury.
OF conditions on the 1,200 level Mr..
Chambers states that where work was
left off, at a point some distance east
of where No ! shaft in the DaIv would
intercept it if continued down, the face
showed about three feet of rather low
grade base ore with a small streak of
high-grade making alongside and he
feels confident that the richer portion
of The chute Will sooner or later be en-
countered.
With expectations realized on the
1000. the LOO will be attacked and
connections made between the two
with wines and raises.
1t must not be inferred that because
work is to be prosecuted from the On
tario side that that company is going
To do 1t, for such is not the case. All
the Ontario has TO do with it is to SUD-
ply the power and grant a right of wav
10 the DAILY company and that has been
already arranged for.

Another of Jim Bridger's stories
which the public then refused to &C
cept, told of catching fish in cold water
on one side. and then, without taking
them from the hook or changing posi-
ton, throwing them irto a hot spring,
where they were cooked in a few mo-
ments- This, however, is done fire.
quently. Anybody can try the expert
ment who desires. and within a few
yards of the lunch station, at what is
called The Thumb, a still more extra
ordinary experience may be enjoyed.
1t is possible TO catch and cook a fish
in the same water. At a point along
the shore ali immense boiling spring
discharges its overflow directly into
Yellowstone lake. The specific gravity
of hot water being less than that Of
cold water, the discharge of hot water
floats in a stratum two or three feet
thick upon the cold water of the lake
for quite an area. The lake abounds
in salmon trout and other fish that
take the bait readily. Tourists sink
their hooks through the stratum of hot
water into the cold water below, and,
when a fish is caught, they draw 1t
up into the hot water, where 1t viii be
cooked ready for eating IN a very few
minutes This is a favorite place for
tourists to be photographed. The
scouts report that last winter an elk
was cooked alive in one of the hot
springs.
Perhaps the most extraordinary yarn
told by Jim Bridger of the wonders Of
this park related to the petrif1ed forest
which he discovered alongside the yell
lowstone river, between the canyon
and the Mammoth Hot Springs. From
the accounts that have come down to
US, Bridger may have INDUCED in a
little eXaggeration, or, what is more
likely, may not have been accurately
reported when he told about the pet
rified animals that stood in the pet
rified forest, and the petrif1ed birds
that sang petrified songs, but neVerthe-
less with slight exceptions the facts
sustain him.
Ages ago, before the birth OF Adam,
flood of liquid volcanic material sub
merged a forest for hundred, and, in
places, a thousand feet. Subsequent
eruptiOns followed in ages afterward,
and the percOlatiOn of the silicious
waters soaked the timber and turned
it into stone. The result is a forest Of
petrified trees, roots, bark, limbs,
leaves, worm holes and all, preserved
with absolute fidelity by natures

While Golfer was no doubt the Origs-
nal white explorer Of the park, every
now and then evidences are discovered
of visits of other white men early in
the century. In the ravine crossed by
a wooden bridge just before the Can
yon hotel is reached is d tree bearing

MERCUR's $40, 900 DIVIDEND.
A Distribution of That Amount Or
dered Friday Evening.

uSASu EIIudy EVenlnS.
As the stockholders have been an
ticipating it and as the details Of final
ly winding up the .companys affairs
have a tendency to drag along in a
provokingly slow manner, but still be-
yond the power of the management to
hasten, the directors of the old Mercur
company held a meeting Friday even
ing and decided to close the books and
pay a dividend of 20 cents a share. or
$4,000. without waiting for the final
Wind-up. Therefore all stockholders OF
record on Friday night will, during the
next few days receive their checks for
the sum named.
1t is understood that there is still
something like $l5. 900 or possibly more
on hand. and after everything has been
settled there will still. more than likely
be another small wad coming. With the
distribution of the main sum, how
ever, the management VIII feel mora

everything should be absolutely
straight, before retiring. there is no
question but what the action taken will
meet the unanimous and hearty an

In the meantime the consolidated
company Is making a splendid record.

Aug. 19, 1918.

This mute record Of an unknown
visitor has never been explained. No
hunter or trapper of early days bore
these initials.
Early in the morning, usually soon
after daybreak, at ShoshOne lake a
strange sound is heard in the air. It
begins softly in the remote distance,
resembling the singing of telegraph
wires, some have said, or the peculiar
whir of a trolley car. 1t grows louder
and louder as it approaches the hearer,
then decreases after il has passed him
and dies away in the opposite direction.
The sound has been compared to vari-
Gus familiar things by different people
who have heard it Professor Forbes,
for example, says that it reminded him
of an Aeolian harp. Edward Linton
compared il to the humming of a
swarm of bees: others have Hkened IL
to the sound of the music of distant
bells, and the imagination of many
observers has found various forms of
comparison, but the phenomenon itself
has never had a satisfactory solution.
It's weird character COMFORTS with its
picturesque surroundings, and even the
most practical and hard-headed man
visitor must feel a sense of awe in the
presence of this remarkable song in
the air The easiest explanation is TO
attribute it TO the electric currents in
the atmosphere.

NEEK'SSTOCK MARKET
Better Business Than at Any
Time During the Summer.
TOTAL SALES s53,295.64
YESTERDAYS CALL ON CHANGE
A BRISK ONE.

The pass weeks business on the Salt
Lake Mining Stock exchange has been
remarkably good one for midsummer.
the figures showing that at the close
of yesterday mornings call 65.516 shares
had been transferred, with a total sell
ing value of $50, 295.64, as against 66, 600
shares and $22. SO the week previous.
The tone of the market was generally
improved. quotations advancing pretty
much all along the line, though strong
and well planned bear movements were
executed against some of the Ihares in
disfavor with the talent
May Day has been compelled to bear
the brunt of this movement for several
weeks, with the result that since the
first of the month the price has been
hammered down from 70 cents to as
low as 45A cents yesterday, while Yam
kee Consolidated, with it's ground adj
joining that of the former. has climbed
up from cents to 99s cents, at which
price sales were yesterday made.
The big guns have all shown signs OF
strength and in some of them remark
able advances have been recorded, the
statement being particularly true of
Mercur, which has been a lively par
ticlpant in the weeks business at rap
idly advancing prices. 1t commenced
selling last Monday at s5.75, and on
Friday. when the last transaction was
recorded, it was at s6.0S. 1t dropped
back TO $3.50 bid, with Sc asked yester-
day. owing to the announcement that
the books had closed the night before
on an extra 20-cent dividend, decided
upon by the directors at late hour
Joe Bowers received some hard
knocks during the week and sold as low
as sc. per share, but yesterday it
looked as though reaction had set in,
sales being made at l cent and rs
cents. Dalton and Lark remains firm
at about 31a bid and cents asked, the
difference being too great for buyer and
seller TO get together. Matters pertain
ing to the sale of the property are said
to be progressing satisfactorily, and
while a heavy payment was due sew
eral days ago, the management is not
worrying over the outcome as it realizes
the launching of an enterprise of such
magnitude as the deal contemplates
cannot be hurried.
West Mountain Placer provided the
surprise of the week, wlTen, on top of
the Accent assessment levied a few days
since, or Immediately after the cOllec-
ton of the one levied previous, the or
der was given to close down the mine
and discharge the entire force. That
the property will remain idle until after
the return of President and Manager
John Dern from Europe, is a sure thing.
Fridays bid for the stock was 1sc per
share. though of course no one would
part with his holdings at any such
figure. No figure was quoted yester-
day.
Daly-West has been quite active at
increasing prices, while Centennial
Eureka. has easily held its own, with
buyer and seller invariably too far ar arr
to make q trade.
The daily record of the weeks trad
ing is reflected in the following table:
