BONANZA TUNNEL.

This property has been quite a pro-
ducer during 1900, the work being done
on the tribute system, the principal out
put of the ore being stamp mill ore
which varied from 31s to as high as 5
ounces gold per cord, the concentrates
netting an average of SIG per ton.
Thirty-five miners have found employ
ment under the tribute system, who,
after paying royalty to the tunnel COM
pany, have been making better wages
than they would have received if work
ing under days pay. New ore bins have
been put near the mouth of the tunnel
and other Improvements added to facili-
tate mining. James A. Gilmour, of this
city, has charge of the mines worked
through the tunnel.

vised, which easily handles the water in
800 foot shaft over which the plant is
situated.
The Bertha Mining con pany, at the
head of Elkhorn gulch, has installed a
% horse power gasoline holster, and
erected shaft building, besides acquir-
ing neighborhood veins. Sinking is being
done on the Colfax vein, the shaft being
235 feet deep. All the claims owned by
the company will be cut by the New
house tunnel.
The Carcasonne Mining company is
working the c. rcasonne vein by sinking
shaft which is down It's feet. This
company is erecting shaft building and
will install a gasoline holster. Drifting
is being done both ways from the bot
tom of the shaft.
The John Owen Mining company is
unwatering the Aududdell, which they
recently purchased, as also the East and
West Frontenac mines, all situated in
South Willis gulch. The holdings of
this company, as soon as the Newhouse
tunnel cuts them, will be worked in cen
nection with that enterprise.
AT the beginning of 1900, the Topeka
was being worked, and great expecta-
tions were entertained of its being oper-
ated throughout the year. However,
through legal complications which arose
the mine is idle, although a short time
ago, steam was raised, and the hoisting
of accumulated water and sharpening
drills was commenced. 1t is to be hoped
that existing legislation will be settled
and work be resumed at the mine, for it
is too valuable property to remain idle.
The ore in the mine is of very high
grade, and the mine is equipped with
one of the best hoisting plants in north
ern Colorado, capable OF mining at a
depth of $500 feet. Its present depth is
over 1000 feet in the east or No. shaft.

vEnMrLLIoN DISTRICT.

This district, which adjoins the YAM
kee hill, Clear Creek county, belt of veins
on the north, has received considerable
attention during 1900. Among the prop
critics continuously worked are the
Golden Sheaf, Ohio and Ohio No. . lodes
the Mann and Surprise mines taking
the lead, also the properties of Leidinger
& Son, situated on Sheridan hill. Ono
great drawback with the district is the
absence of stamp mills for treatment OF
ores, the mine owners being compelled
to transport their stamp mill ore to
Black Hawk at n heavy cost in transpor
tation. Several attempts have recently
been made to secure % stamp mill but
have not yet eliminated successfully.
There is very favorable mill site near
the Golden Sheaf, where there is suflici-
cut water to furnish % stamp mill, ii
the proper reservoirs for storage purpos-
es were put in. There is plenty of fuel
near at hand to last for several years,
which could DO secured Mt small price
per cord. The Golden Sheaf, Ohio and
Ohio No. . have been opened sufficiently
to keep that number Of stamps employed
continuously. Parties have been looking
over the ground recently with the view
to the erection Of II modern Gilpin coun.
ty mill of that capacity.

nANnoLrM VIII SOLD.

The Randolph Mill company last FRI
day sold to the Colorado Mine com
pany their 5o.stamp mill in this city for
a good round sum. Two mill sites are
included in the sale, namely: The
ground upon which the mill stands, as
also the Wheeler mill site above, adioin-
ing the mill site of the New York Mill
company. Included in the sale is the
water rights, concessions Of right-of-way
for the numc, etc. The mill is supplied
with both steam and water power.
Stephen Hoskin, manager of the Colo
RADIO. Carr mine, will have charge OF the
mill, which will trent the ore taken from
the Carr mine, which was acquired by
the company some months ago from
John Helm and others, for which they
received cash consideration OF $4,000
With the developments inaugurated mt
the mine tho company will be enabled
to keep tho capacity OF the mill en-

properties on Tip Top mountain, in
South Moon gulch and ON up nearly to
Rollinsville, which indicates that the
owners of the prospects have faith in
their turning out well with more de-
velopment work.
The Gettysburg Mining and Develop
ment company, Milford Steele, agent,
have ~ acres of mineral bearing ground
in Central district, and mill site of 20
acres. The work for 1900 was confined
principally to the Gettysburg, where a
shaft building 24x40 feet was erected by
Lamont & Ballard and steam hoisting
plant installed A vertical shaft was
sunk 200 feet. Ore was encountered
which assayed well. Stations will be cut
and levels driven to open this ore body.
The values of the smelling ore is from
$50 to $50 per ton, the stamp mill ore
running from Sc to SS per ton. The In

The After Supper Mining and Leasing
pool, home affair, during the year
under review have sunk the main shaft,
driven levels and made an upraise TO
connect with the present shaft. Con-
siderable stamp mill ore of very fair
quality has been treated at the Gilpin
mill in this city. Some weeks ago they
erected shaft house and installed a
steam plant, which will greatly facilitate
mining and hoistins of ore in the future.
The members of the pool, residents of
this city, are Benedict Kimber, George
Scheer, William f. Flick, the latter being
part owner in the property in connec-
tion with Thomas DeCcar, of Idaho
Springs.
The Senator group of veins on the
mountain south of Running Lode gulch,
owned by Backus & McNevins of this
city, was leased short time ago to
| parties who have erected shaft build
ing 20x40 which will enclose the plant
ordered for hosting purposes. The
mine is under water for quite distance,
which will be taken out after the plant
is installed. John Steiner, of Denver,
is the manager of the group.
The London & Colorado Guld Mining
company, Dr. Covers, of Denver, agent,
own group Of veins south of Running
Lode gulch, of which the Big Spring is
the most thoroughly developed. The
property will be worked early next
spring.
Newell & Newell have done consider
able work on the Blanche lode during
the year, which is situated on the noun
tain back of the Rocky Mountain mill
and concentration works. 1t is owned
by Mr.. Smith, who resides at Aspen,

NEW COMPANY.

The National Tunnel Mining and Mill
ing company is recent organization
who have taken hold in earnest OF the
development work. The company's
manager, John j. Reiiley, has for the
past six months been securing property
and concessions, and has secured over
twenty lode claims. He is now driving
two tunnels to intersect the several
veins, and is sinking shafts at various
points. Contracts have been let for the
erection of buildings. a plant will be
installed and power drills used in fur
thering the tunnel work with rs great n
degree of rapidity as possible. The
property is in the Bobtail hill belt OF
veins. Since starting up better results
have been obtained than WINS at first an
ticipated. They have cut several veins
the results obtained from the ore being
very haJtering.

rHEcoLoKApo-CARK MINING

THECOLORADO-CAR MINING CO.
Last August John Helm, Joseph
Griedler and others, sold the Carr mine
to an English Belgian syndicate for s4O,-
600 cash, since which time the Katie and
Humboldt veins have been purchased
for $500. The syndicate incorporated
as the Colorado Carr Mine company
limited, appointing Stephan Hoskin as
their manager. Mr.. Hoskin since as
suming his duties has stripped, straight
ened and retimbered the shaft, which
was carried down in bad shape from
surface to bottom, depth of 500 feet,
with the view to deeper and permanent
exploration of the vein, which embraces
$50 linear feet upon the Carr vein. An
80 horse.p power friction clutch holster
of the Vulcan pattern has been installed
and 1000 feet of q steel wire rope placed
on the hoisting drum, sheave frame
80 feet in height of 12x12 timber, an
addition l4x20, for an engine room er.
ected and the main building raised to
greater height, and new coal shed and
blacksmith shop added. All this work
required time, especially the shaft, which
was virtually making new, out of an
old one. The work is about completed
the manager will sink an additional 500
feet as rapidly as possibl, running three
S-hour shifts of miners in doing the
work. Tie Carr mine when operated
by the former owners proved paying
investment, always yielding its regular
monthly dividend. The company has a
large amount Of money at its command
to continue developments. Last week
they added by purchase the Randolph
80 slow drop stamp mill to their hold
ings, which will enable them to treat
their ore by this method. THE OBSERVER
is informed that Mr.. Hoshin, who will
have charge of the mill will thoroughly
renovate it and put it IN the best pos
sible condition.. During the manage.
ment of G. W. Mabee, who effected the
sale, the mill was rated a No. l in saving
the gold in the ore it treated.

ROBERT EMMEr MINE.

In the earlier part of the year the
Robert Emmet mine, owned by W.
81. Nichols & Co., was worked to
some extent, but at present is closed
down temporarily, pending negotiations
for the purchase of the property. Like
the rest of the mines crossing Maryland
mountain, on which it is situated, the
ore is of galenous character, carrying
gold, silver, copper and lead values. The
smelling ore has values of 300 per ton,
the stamp mill ore yielding from 81 to 5
ounces gold per cord. the concentrates
selling readily at s15 per ton, and at
times reaching higher value.

HIDDEN TREASURE MILL.

Through the courtesy of Hon. W. J.
Lewis the following interesting item re-
garding stamp milling is furnished THE
OBSERVER for publication: During
eleven months in 1900 the mill treated
2,913 cords, or 1880 tons, of ore, princi-
pally custom ore. The mill is provided
with 70 slow drop and 10 rapid drop
stamps, total of So stamps. The mill
concentrates are loaded into cars of the
Colorado & Southern railroad and are
shipped direct from the mill to the Den
yer smelters. Water is used portion
of the year as the motive power, steam
being used through the dry season and
winter months.

capacity of holding 1000 tons of ore.
Development work is going forward, 40
men being employed. The larger por-
ton of the ore broken remains OIL the
various stulls in the mine until the
slopes are beaten through. The develop
ment policy of the manager is to reduce
the cost per foot to minimum and the
cost of producing the ore to the lowest
possible figure. The ore is proving valu-
able, leaving good profit, the returns
received from both the smelters and
stamp mill being above the average of
Gilpin county ore.

PINE DISTRICT,

Erroniously by many called Pine
backs the past year, the chief one of
which was the unusal amount of water
to contend with, caused by the late
spring SHOWS, IN addition to that which
fell during the winter months Of 1899
and 1900. The two best and most thor
oughly developed mines are those of the
Plateau and Ge,ger. The first is situat-
ed on the top Of the mountain at the
head of Pine Creek. The shaft is over
700 feet in depth and is opened into ore
bodies by system of levels, in all of
which are good bodies. With proper
concentrator near at hand the mine
would prove great producer and also
very profitable. A mill of that charac-
ter is contemplated by the company
owning it, OF which E. j. Adams is the
manager.
"Over in the Black Canon" as it is
termed, number of very promising
lode locations have been opened some
OF the ore running well in gold under
stamp treatment.
The Geiger group, especially tie
Geiger vein has received large amount
of development through an adit which,
when driven up under the crest of the
mountain on which it is located. the
vein will be tapped at depth of 1000
feet. Connected with this group is the
Side Issue belonging to Hon. Hugh But
Ter and Mr.. Gilmour both residing in
Denver. Mr.. Stephan, the manager. has
been directing his efforts toward the
erection of Pyritic smelter of the Lo-
der pattern, the ores Of this section being
OF sulphide character. The excessive
price charged by the owners of the pat
ent right for permit to use the smelter
and the royalty charged on every ton of
Mr.. Stephan and his brother, whom he
represents from installing plant of that
character. They have the ore, clear
mineral, besides large quantities of crude
concentrating ore, which would pay we'll
if smelling appliances were near at hand.
The Schultz Wonder mine is another
very promising property, which has
thorough and systematic development
by an adit of the vein the breast and
back of which has exposed ore some of
which gives values up into the thousands
of dollars.
Another vein named the st. Louis,
owned by Thomas Cornwall and others
is promising property. There are un-
patented properties in the district the
assessment work upon which has been
kept up.
At the Twelve Mile diggings west of
Apex, the head center of the district, as
also in Elk Park but little is going on
farther than that required by law to
hold the locations that have been made.
The great essential needed is capital
judiciously expended along economical
lines, to make this portion of the county
great ore producer. The majority of
the mine owners are poor men, hence
they cannot develop their property to
the extent that they would had they the
\ means to do so
