found in other districts.
Mr.. c. z. Allen, superintendent Of
/ the Centennial-Eu said recently
that IN studying the formation Of the
lower levels Of the mine. he is begin
nlnS to have suspicion that at a con-
siderable greater depth than they are
now working, a contact will be found
such as we may refer to as the "regu-

IN all the eastern part of the noun

mines are practically dry. A little

Gemini. but at a depth even of 400

Water On the Property.
Farther east. upon reaching the
/ porphyry, there is plenty of water and
| a considerable part of the supply of
! the city and of the mines has to be
hauled or conducted in pipes from that

All of the ore from this district and
from the Silver City district. three or
Z Tour miles farther west. are shipped to
the salt Lake valley for final treat
ment. In nearly all of the mines there
has been an accumulation of ores
/ classed as low grade. and that includes
all under less than SIS per ton value.
The BulliOn-Beck company erected a
splendid mill. but II did not fully meet
expectations.
The Eureka Hill property has a mill
also which has been more successful
in treating the class of ores found there.

tally, it may be noted that wherever
mention is made Of carload lots, it is
liable to be misleading. While the in
