AMADOR COUNTY.
The 0neida-Jackson

The work of mill building at the
Oneida mine has been delayed SER
iously on account of the impossibility
of hauling the lumber to be used in its
construction from the depot at lone to
the mine. There is now at the lone
depot about 200, 900 feet of lumber for
that MILL which cannot possibly be
hauled in manner that will be profit
able to either the owner or the team
ster for some weeks to come. The de-
lay already caused by bad roads will
probably place the completion of the
mill as late in the coming year as July.
The development of the mine in the
new shaft and on the levels therefrom
continue under the efficient manage
ment of John Truscott, and whenever
the sixty stamp mill is completed the
propertyfwill be so well opened that it
can be kept running indefinitely. The
repairing and reopening the old shaft
is progressing rapidly and within a
short time connections will be made
between the old shaft and the new,
thus producing ventilation for the
workmen IN the mine than which there
is none better.

TUOLUMNE COUNTY.

Sonora Democrat: In doing the
assessment work on a claim on the
main Tuolumne river, near the Tuol-
umne mine, A. G Maier struck large
vein of high grade ore. The ore body
was struck ten feet from the surface.
The vein is from five to six feet in
width and the quartz shows free gold
and contains about 10 per cent sulphur
cts.
At the Mt. jefferson mine prepara-
tions are being made to start the three
compartment vertical shaft on the
hanging-wall. This will be driven
down 1000 feet, though it is expected
to strike the vein at a depth of 500 feet.
At present work in the various drifts
is continued and an immense body of
ore is ready for handy STOPPING. Su-
perintendent M. Meighan says he will
have the new ten-stamp mill in opera
tion by the 18th inst.

CATTLE STAMPEDED.
S. W. Bright's Cattle Break Out of a Cor
raj and Run Twenty-seven Miles.

S. w. Bright sustained loss of sew
eral hundred dollars on his beef cattle,
which are in corral and being fed at
place on the Calaveras River, be-
tween Jenny Lind and Bellota. There
we're eighty head in the corral at night
and in the morning all were gone. APP
parently they had been stampeded in
the corral and broke it down. The
man in charge of them notified Mr..
Bright of the condition of affairs, and
herders were sent out to look for them.
The ground being soft made it possible
to track them, and by energetic work
seventy-nine head OF the eighty were
recovered, some of them being found
twenty-seven miles from the corral in
which they had been cOufned. A sus-
picious man was seen lurking about the
corral the night of the stampede, and
the impression is current that he stam-
peded the cattle and made them break
out of the corral, in order that he and
his associates could run them off and
ship them to market. This theory
seems tena5 5le, as number of them
were found in dark and almost mac
cessible canyon twenty-seven miles
away from the camp. Mr.. Bright's
loss consists of the shrinking of the
stock, which was in prime conditions;
the money it cost to recover them and
the one animal not found, in all between
$500 and $500.

Sheep Ranch-Calaveras County

The mill is completed and the mine
unwatered and reopeued to the lowest
levels. A gang of men has been en-
gagged in the work of repairing the
shaft from the 300-foot to the 5OO-foot
levels. and in putting in forty-pound
rails the entire length of the shaft.
AS soon as this repair work is COM
pleted the taking out of ore will be
commenced and the mill started up.
The intention now is to commence to
crush ore this week and have the
twenty stamps dropping steadily and
continuously by the 10Th of the month.
1t is believed by the people who are in
terested in the mining industry, that
the Sheep Ranch will again become the
bullion-producer it was in the days OF
its greatest prosperity.

Killed Instantly.

Richard Roberts was instantly killed
last Saturday while coming up on the
skip at the Keystone mine at noon. He
was standing on the bale and his
clothes caught on the timbers in such
way that his body was pulled down over
the edge of the skip, the upper part
being held by the timbers while the
lower part was over the edge of the
skip. AS the upward motion con-
tinued he was practically cut in two,
death resulting simultaneously. The
funeral took place Sunday afternoon
from the M. E. Church, under the
auspices of the Ancient Order OF For
esters. The deceased leaves widow
and three children.

a view to locate a place for workin g
shaft. The quartz formation, COM
posed of a series of veins, is about 200
feet in width, so this cut will be run in
order to explore the different veins.
AS soon as this is accomplished, heavy
machinery will be installed and the
company will prepare to go down a
thousand feet.
A party Of miners are engaged in
working what is known as the ''Lime-
stone Crevice," placer mine near
Maxey's place on O'Neill's creek.
This is property which was worked
by early miners with good results, but
they were never able to bottom this
crevice or pot-hole on account of the
large quantity of water. The present
company is engaged in ground-sluic-
ing off as much of the ground as posi-
BILE preparatory to commencing sinking.
1t is good returns from the work and
is confident that ithas rich property.
When ready to Commence sinking it
will install pump of sufficient capac-
ity to handle the flow of water.
San Andreas Citizen. ON the Com
modore mine the prosecuting of the
ledge at the 300-foot level is still being
prosecuted. They have gone through
fifteen feet of solid quartz and have
not reached the wall yet. All reports
agreed that the indications are excel
lent and that the ledge is all milling ore
which it would. pay to mill. .Superin-
tendent Gary is elated with the assays
and the immense body of ore. 1t is his
intention to thoroughly exploit the
ledge at this level, and the result of
that will be the guide for the future
operations on this mine. If this ledge
holds out, as there is every reason to
believe it will, a forty-stamp mill will
probably be placed on the Commodore
in the spring.
San Andreas Citizen: 1t was origin
ally supposed that the large cash cap
ital with which the Melones Company
began business would be sufficient to
thoroughly equip the property. AS an
additional precaution. 30, 453 shares of
the original 100000 shares capital
stock were left in the treasury. The
shortage of capital is due to two acci-
dents which occurred when arranging
for the mill. A ledge, supposed to
reach across the creek. had been Sc,
lected for the foundation of the dam.
After the dam had been partly built it
was discovered that it ran into quick
sand, and during the delay flood
swept away that part of the dam al
ready completed. The foundation for
the 12O-stamp mill was insecure and
had to be reinforced and renewed at
considerable cost The necessary
money is to be raised by sale of pre-
ferred stock, bonds and an assessment.
Mr.. Ralston is now in Boston arrang-
ing for the vigorous resumption of

phal, is having some trouble in the
matter. 1t seems that the first pay
meut of 5000 was due on the End, and
by request of Folsom and Westphal
the date of payment was delayed for
one week. On the 9th McKelvey paid
one-third each to those gentlemen and
Turner has refused to take his one
third. Mr.. McKelvey does not pur-
pose to be trihed with in the matter
and will resort to the Courts, if neces-
sary.
