CUSTER MINES.

John |. Minear. manager of the
Yankee Fork group of mines
near Custer, was at Kenyon. Mr..
Minear was in the city to buy
supplies for the mine. He says
that the district is more active
than it has been since the excite
ment of years ago, and that a
number of properties are being
worked. The camp has been
stirred recently by great strike
on the MCGEE mine on Mt. Estes.
There six feet of wonderfully
rich ore has been struck, carry
ing high values in ruby silver
and gold. Several persons have
been trying to get a bond the
property, but the owner refuses
to sell.
Work is progressing favorably
on the Lucky Boy mine in which
Mr.. Mccormick and other Salt
Lakers are interested. The new
shaft made necessary by the cave
in the old shaft is being put
down, the hoist has been moved,
and the twenty-five stamp mill,
handling about three tons of gold
silver ore to the stamp, will be
in operation about Sept. 1st.
On the Yankee Fork group,
which Mr.. Minear is operating
for Boston syndicate headed
by Thayer & Wilkins, who not
long ago bought the famous
Potosi group of twenty three
mines in Nevada, i've miles from
the California state line, the
capacity of the mill is being
doubled, and development work
is being pushed. The property
was bought early in the year
from Jas. McFadden, who is now
ill at the Keogh- McKenna hospi-
tai in Salt Lake. A new hoist
has been put in and the enlarge
ments for the mill, making it of
ten-stamp capacity, are on the
way from SanFrancisco.
At a depth of 352 feet the ore
body is holding out with a diam
eter of five to seven feet. The
values average 500 to $50, Mr..
Minear says, but there is a little
high grade ore which runs $500
to 81, 900 a ton, some of which is
now being sacked for shipment.
The syndicate owning the prop
erty. the Hartford Copper &
Gold company, is also interested
in Alaska.
There is a splendid showing
on the jesse James group, own
ed by the Montreal Gold Mining
& Milling company. The prop
erty is under the supervision of
Hugh G. Baker. This is a gold
proposition, the vein being sixty
across. and the values running
upward of IS a ton. The com
pany has purchased a ten stamp
mill, which is now on the road,
and has built road six miles
from Custer to the mine, which
is on Jordan creek. IS. l.. Herald.

Gen. Stewart Of Pennsylvania, and

Sickles represented the opposition to

command. The American people
would be pleased to learn that all our

AGAIN there is CONSERVATION among
the governing classes Of Great Britain.
Those irrepressible Boers--who won't
stay licked, although they have been
licked by proclamation and in theory
for long time-are at their old tricks
capturing British detachments
and helping themselves to arms, am
munition and horses.. Judging from
the London dispatches to- American
metropolitan newspapers, the anti-war
feeling is growing much stronger
among the common people Of Great
Britain.
