Of the trend Of the vein in the present
working, is a valuable addition. It is
one of the few stocks in the market
that has not suffered materially from
the late decline. 1t started on the first
of January at 1Ssc to &c per share. At
the highest it sold for about 20 cents.
At the present time it is quoted stead
lily at Is and IA cents. The property
has had conservative management. and
while its shares are widely held there
has been no wild speculation in the
trading.
Bingham Copper Boy Mining Co.
The holdings Of this company include
nine claims on the Tooele side of the
Highland Boy hill, and Immediately
contiguous to that well-known prop
erty. It has been under development
during the year and ore has been ex-
posed in several places. The mine is
opened from the Pine canyon side Of
the divide on which it is located, and
the outlet for its ores will be on the
Stockton side. A tunnel was driven
400 feet from the entrance and struck
the vein in the latter part of October.
Drifting was begun at once in both
directions There is every indication
that it has the making of a good prop
erty.
Pine Canyon and It's Outlook.
A striking feature Of the general In
terest attracted to mining during the
past two years has been the develop

opened up Immediately adjoining the

the general mineral zone of West

the Oquirrh range. which forms the
easternmost range of what is known
as the Basin range of mountains Of
Utah. This range is from ten to twen-

west of Salt Lake City, with which it
is connected by two lines of railroad

distance of eight miles, and the Rio

Messrs. w. A. Cooke, J. H. Hurd and

erty, and it will require but a short
time until it is heard from as a large

ores will be blocked out during the
coming winter to warrant the construc-

work now progressing has been laid
out TO that end.

Mrs. Hinsdale says that Christian
