BRIGHT PROSPECTS.

Not since its discovery have the pros
poets of this mining district looked SO
promising, and this year will surely find
Ely one OF the liveliest camps in the
State. The facts that prompt this
statement are these: The New York
parties having bonds on several copper
mines are making their payments
promptly, and to say that they are sat-
isfied with the property is making it
very mild Development work has been
actively carried on since last August,
not day has been lost, and millions of
tons of ore are in sight-snough to run
fore the dog days come, teams loaded
with copper bullion will be going out of
this canyon. There is every probab-
ility that the Robust Co. will build a
mill in the spring; the mine is improv-
ing with every stroke of the pick and
they are blscking out as fine ore as
man should wish to look at. The
Chairman niue Is an assured success;
the recent cleanup at mill was the most
satisfactory yet made. The mine is
immense; practically all the ore that
goes through the mill is gotten from
drifts made in virgin ground, very lit
tie stopeing is done They will probably
more than double the bullion output
before the summer is ended. The Ju-
piter mine is considered by almost every
one here TO be one OF the best gold
propositions in the camp. We have
heard that it is likely to be sold for
large figure in the near future. II the
New York Co. viii do custom work at
their smelter, there are several copper
mines that win pay handsomely

oscEoLA MINING DISTRICT.

The following description of the Os
ceola Mining District appeared in the
New Years edition of the Salt Lake
Tribune above the signature of Mr.
Orson Hudson of that place:
.sThe principal formations here are
quartzite, granite, slate porphyry,
shale and lime, and the hills are like
unto network of gold bearing quartz
veins, although silver, "copper" lead and
other metals abound. The principal
mining which has been carried on here
up to recent date has been hydraulic
or placer mining and the hundred of
thousands of dollars in gold which have
been extracted from these auriferous
grand deposits have established for
them a reputation which needs no com
ment, for Oseeola nuggets can be found
| in all parts of the country ranging from
$4,000 down to fine dust, and these gold
deposits are practically inexhaustable,
Some of the gravel beds are 200 feet
thick and extends miles in length and
width. Two large canals bring water
B with which to work the gravel under
/ heavy force, one ditch being fifteen and
the other being eighteen miles long,
with discharge far above the gravel
1 The bullion shipment the past year was
light owing to an exceptionally dry
season, light snow in the mountains and
hence a scarcity of water This helped
make goodthe old adage "There Is no
loss without some gain, as it proved
true during last summer here. Not
being able to do as much placer mining
as usual, miners turned their attention
to quartz and the result is that several
new corporations were formed num-
ber of valuable discoveries made in an
around the district from which assay
values have been obtained ranging from
trace up to 500, 600 per ton. A twenty
stamp mill was erected by the Eagle
Mining company and a four months
run under the management of w. F,
Patrick, with Orson Hudson as fore
man, has proven that there is good
merit in the property. The company
is developing their mine during winter
so as to make a steady run during all
of next summer. We have reason TO OK.
pect two other companies to be in full
operation by next summer and there is
good field open here for others. The
hubernite or tungsten discoveries twelve
miles south OF OsceOla was n very in
terestng event of the year and 1t prom
ises to do much for this locality. Th,
climate here is unsurpassed and tn,
people are unanimous in the belief tha
bright future is dawning.

ANOTHER DEFEAT FOR BULLER
AT TUGELA RIVER REPORTED.

LONDON. Jan. IA telegram from
Newport, Wales, says Rutherford Har'
ris, formely resident director in South
Africa OF the British South African
Company, has received cablegram to
the effect that General Butler has SUI
fered another reverse.
The War Office has no information to
enable it to confirm or deny the dis.
patch said to have been received by Mr..
Rutherford Harris.
LONDON, Jan. Is. Up to the present
the reported crossing of the Tugela riv-
er by General Warren's division re-
mains but rumor. Nevertheless the
whole tenor OF such news as has drib-
bled in from South Africa during the
last forty-eight hours indicates that a
combined forward movement OF COM
phrehensive character is proceeding.
1t is not necessary to believe the uncon-
firmed stories of the Beers being in re-
treat from Colenso, because it has been

via Weenen to Helwaaker to cut off
their retreat. But at the same time the
credible information received from
many scources indisputably points to
momentous changes in the disposition
of the republican forces.
Adyices at Pietermartizburg dated
Saturday, January 18th, say that since
their defeat on January 9Th, the Beers
have been removing their guns from
the positions south OF Ladysmith. The
same dispatch confirms the report that
the Thirteenth Hussars reached Grob-
lersklof without meeting the Beers.
As the trenches of Groblerskloff were
perhaps the strongest position held by
the bnrghers their vacation has con
siderably astonished the British.
Merchants at Pietermartizburg have
