in uprising to connect the upper and
lower tunnels. The rich streak is not
being broken down, but all the material
taken out in making the upraise will run
more than $40 a ton.

RICH STRIKE At WARD.

B. & Nj Mine Discloses Unusually Rich
Body OF Ore.
A report comes from Ward district,
Boulder county, to the Denver Post, that
a strike of considerable importance has
oeen made in the B. & M. mine. In the
course of some extensive developments
the miners uncovered a large body of
low grade ore streaked with high grade
material. The vein is about four feet
vide. Last Tuesday the miners, by a
fortunate shot. uncovered fifteen inches
of pyritic ore which ASSAYS 1884 per
ton. 1t carries some silver and copper
besides the gold The streak has since
widened to thirty inches. This ind has
greatly encouraged all the operators in
that camp. John w. Helbig Of Denver.
secretary of the B. & M. company, is in
high state of rejoicing over the strike
and begins to see bonanza in that mine.
The Ward Miner says of this strike:
"Three weeks ago the contractors
completed their job of sinking the shaft
from the 600 to the 300 foot point and
since that time few men have been EN-.
ployed at running the two new levels
at 700 and 500 feet-both directions
from the shaft. Ore was FIRST encounter
ed in the 700 foot level only short dis
lance from the shaft. This was a wide
oody of mill dirt, containing some streaks
Of smelling ore. A day or two later

seen feet west of the shaft in the 500 foot
level. BY Wednesday of this week this
ore had widened out into body twenty
wo inches in width of solid smelling
ore, which assays trifle over four and
one half ounces in gold to the ton. This
strike is perhaps the greatest ever
known in this camp and to make it still
more important is at the deepest point
ever reached by any mine in the district"

To the Editor OF the MINER.
SIR: By the grand jury committee
report on the board of supervisors L
see that Mr.. linus and myself have
overdrawn our salaries, according to
the 3J'S limit-and we have If the Bus
limit holds good, which | don't think
it will-but to that limit plead ignor-
ant, for knew nothing about it-and L
was not the only Que. But If l have
drawn any money that am not entitled
to am willing to pay it back, but when
do our district attorney will have to
90 on electing tour as far back as the
law allows. The committee finds that
the board has been excessively extrav-
agant. | admit we were somewhat so
in repairing some old roads and build
ing new ones, mostly to benefit the
town of Kingman and the county in
general, and it don't look we'll for the
people of the town of Kingman to ac-
cuse us of extravaganza on that point.
But for me, am an advocate of good
roads, and don't regret it. They also
accuse us Of ignoring the advice Of the
district attorney. | plead guilty and
also for the whole board, on one occa-
sion only, and that time was when he
tried every way that he knew how to
talk US into signing that beautiful con-
tract his Employers, the Santa Fe Pa
cific railroad company, tried to force
us to sign the rights of Mohave county
away, which we did not, nor had any
right to do so. We held two special
meetings on his account on the rail-
road tax that we never should have
held if he had done his duty to the
county instead of putting in his best
lick for the railroad company, but he
was afraid of losing his job If he did
not tend to their business first, and he
knows he is always safe in the county.
1t says we went direct against his ad-
vice in the overdrawing of salaries. |
defy him or anyone else to show where
there ever was one word about salaries
