Rich Ore In The Kennedy.

While drifting north of the north
shaft of the Kennedy mine, at the lower
leyel; about 23OO feet deep, recently, an
unusually rich vein of ore was en-
countered. Those WHO have seen it
declare that it is nearly if not quite
half gold. The ore is being taken out
in candle-boxes, sacks, buckets, etc.
Only two men work on shift while
taking it out and they are guarded by
two other workmen. The officials of
the mine in San Francisco were notified
at once, This remarkable discovery
indicates that deep mining pays in
Amador county.
Later:-The editor of the LEDGER
called at the Kennedy Office, Wednes-
day afternoon, and was courteously
received by Secretary Harrington, who
showed him some Of the rock, It is,
indeed, very rich. Mr.. Harrington
said that the exact location of the
strike sis in a crosscut from the north
drift at point 225 feet north of the
east crosseut fr9m the North shaft to
the Main Mother Lode Fissure.

Mining Notes.
cALAvERAS COUNTY.

Prospect: 1t is reported that the
Sugar Pine Mining Co, recently Or
gained for mining purposes, is pursu-
ing its labors just as rapidly as ele-
mentary conditions will warrant. Ex-
pert opinion is very favorable toward
the ultimate establishment and de-
velopment of a good mine at this place.
The lode is wide. The rock is in good
form and distinguishable as a vein of
tirst-class appearance. That it is good
In character can not be disputed.
Rock on exhibition at Mitchler's hotel
from the Hidden Treasure mine is very
good indeed. 1t contains a large per-
centage of galena sulphuret and better
than these pure glittering gold From
Stock ton paper it is learned the ore
assays nearly $500 per ton. A mining
company is also being formed to work
the various possessions. 1t is sincerely
hoped that success will attend their in
vestments. They certainly have good
assurance in good prospects.
The May Day Co. have thus far failed
to resume operations on their property.
They have done much and expensive
work in this section and it is to be
hoped an early day will see them amply
repaid for their indomitable pluck and
perseverance. Their success means
other successes in the mineral develop
ment of this region.
Chronicle: The Salvador quartz
mine, situated on the south side of the
Esperanza creek, in Mill Valley mining
district, four miles from Jesus Maria,
is owned by II. c. Newman of San
Francisco, and E. H. Dawson of Oak
land. This mine is a bonanza. 1t is a
north and south ledge and dips east,
the formation being slate in both walls,
the foot-wall carrying a wide black
gouge, also rich in sulphurets and free
gold. The ore is of ribbon character.
The ledge is from 3 to feet wide from
wall to wall.
The Full Dinner Pail quartz mine is
owned by the Mehrton Bros. of
Clements. The ledge, which outcrops
plainly the entire length of the claim,
is OF ribbon character and averages
about three feet in width. The trend
of the ledge is north and south. One
wall is slate and the other porphyritic
slate, with dip to the west. Some
very rich specimens have been found in
this mine.
