Consolidated Franklin.

The Consolidated Franklin is pushing
ahead and drifts are being run west in
opening up an ore shoot about three feet
in width. The ore carries good values.
James c. Berryhill of Des Moines was
in the city this week looking over the
property and announced himself as high
ly pleased with the work which has been
accomplished.
A shaft has been started to connect
with the adit level. AS soon as air can
be secured in the lower workings stoping
that large quantities of good pay ore will
be found in three different shoots.

T. l.. Rodda and c. w. Deems have
taken bond and lease on the Little Ella
This property is owned by Mrs. R. ].
Welch of Denver and has produced a
considerable sum in years gone by.
Messrs. Rodda and Deems will, in the
course of few weeks, install an up-to-
date plant of machinery and it is expect
ed that by December they will be taking
out good ore.
1t is the intention of the leasers to at
once commence sinking the shaft, which
will be put down an additional 100 feet.
If indications will warrant they will in
crease the force after January 1.
The bond calls for $4,000.

Lawson Briefs.

Wreckers are tearing down the old
buildings on the property recently pur-
chased by A. E. Reynolds, the mining
man. A large plant of machinery, which
is already en- route, will be installed i'm
mediately.
A small hoisting plant was placed on
the Boston last week. This property is
owned by Olson and Anderson of Lawson
and Charles Worth of Idaho Springs.
A telegram was received from Boston
Tuesday by one who is interested, stating
that the money for the first payment on
the Sisters property had been paid over
and the deal closed. We hope this report
is true. The Sisters is fine property
and should be worked.

will be continued until the junction of
the Mary Matilda is cut. The vein will
be then followed for about 800 feet.
This property is owned by J. B. Allen,
who has been in Idaho Springs for a
number of days, and his brother, ]. c.
Allen of Texas. The last named gentle
man is organizing company which will
be composed largely of Texan residents
with plenty of capital back of them.
The property consists of twenty-five
unpatenteu claims. all of which are To-
Gated in a good section.

Many improvements.

Twelve hundred tons of ore a month
are now being shipped to the smelters by
the Sun and Moon. More than 100 men
are employed in and around the premises
and in a short time it is expected that the
force will be materially increased.
During the last few days the company
has installed two new electric motors of
Ioo-horse power each to drive the two
new air compressors The wires of the
Cascade Electric company have been run
from Georgetown to Central City and
electricity will be supplied the Sun and
Moon by November 1. At that time the
transformers are expected.
AS soon as this machinery arrives and
everything has been put in place drifting
will be crowded to the full limit. Then
when the raise is completed from the
Newhouse tunnel drift up to the shaft the
company will be employing several hund-
red men.
Six machine drills are now being work
ed, but as soon as the above work is COM
pleted 1t is the intention of the company
to install several more in order that de-
velopment work may be carried on as
extensively as possible

Gum Tree in Line.

Messrs. Owen and Morgan, who are
operating the Gum Tree mine at Freeland
under lease, are meeting with much sue
cess. The gentlemen only secured the
lease a few weeks ago and from the day
they started work on the property they
have been taking out pay ore.
Operations are being carried on in the
third level west of the property and as
far as mining men have been able to de-
termine there is a body of ore in sight
which will keep the leasers busy for
number of months. No stoping is being
done but the mineral is being taken out
as fast as they can knock it down.
There is three foot streak of smelling
ore that gives returns of from $40 to $50,
while the mill dirt will average over $40
to the ton.
Four cars of the smelling grade are
sent to the Globe smelter in Denver each
week, while the mills receive from fifty
to 100 tons of mill dirt. Shipments of
the mill dirt have only been commenced
during the last week.

Will Sink the Shaft.

The management of the Black Eagle
has decided upon sinking the shaft an
additional 800 feet. Work will be re-
sumed the first of the coming week and
will be pushed as rapidly as possible.
The shaft at the present time is down 400
feet, and while large bodies of ore have
been opened up it is not of high enough
grade to warrant the treating at the pres
ent time. The vein which has been
opened up is considered strong and
crosses the Chicago, which is also to be
drifted on. The last named lode is sup
posed to be the same as the Quito, which
in former times has made a record for
itself.

LARGEST
ENTERPRISE
IN STATE
Enormous Plant Of Machinery to be Erected
on the Red Elephant.

Oh AhS ANCo A@iS Pudlls
Lawson properties are in demand, as is
noted from the fact that A. E. Reynolds,
the well known mining man, has sue
ceeded in buying up nearly all the lodes
on Red Elephant mountain,
But this is not half the story. One of
the largest plants of machinery, in fact
be installed on the property recently Sc
cured by Mr.. Reynolds.
Mr.. Reynolds was the man who for
merly operated the Old Commodore mine
at Creede which had a world wide repu-
tation, and he has decided upon removing
the entire plant from Creede to Lawson.
Work has already been commenced in
tearing down at Creede and it is expected
that the machinery will arrive on the
new grounds in the course of a couple or
three weeks.
More men will be employed as a result
of Mr., Reynolds movement at Lawson,
than ever in the history of that camp. 1t
is the intention of the parties interested
to drive several tunnels for the purpose
of cutting the ore veins at great depth.
The first tunnel will be started at the
base of the mountain at the upper edge
of Lawson and will have a greater depth
by 800 feet than the Tabor This tunnel
will be driven at least 1 600 feet at which
time it is expected that several of the
noted silver veins will be cut. 1t will be
the purpose to cut all the lodes, thus
draining the workings and cutting under
the mountain at a depth of from 900 to
1000 feet.
Mr.. Reynolds has secured possession
of seventy patented claims and many OF
them were heavy producers before the
slump in silver occurred.
During the last week the deeds were
filed transferring the balance of the prop
erty which it was the desire of NJ. Rey-
nolds to secure. The enterprise will be
state but there can be no doubt as to its
success.
The man who is undertaking this en-
terprise has purchased all the town lots
from the main street to the mountain.
This property will be used for buildings
and dump purposes.
While all this is going on in and near
Lawson, is it any wonder that the camp
is assuming an air of activity never be-
fore known2

Good Results at Freeland.

A strike is reported in the Great West
ern adit of the New Era company at
Freeland this week. About three feet of
mineral was opened and the smelling
ore gives returns of four ounces in gold.
In addition to the gold values 1t carries
good percentages in copper, lead and
silver. Along side of the smelling streak
is large body of mill ore which will be
tax n out and sent to tine companys mill
for treatment.
Air drills are being worked in sinking
the shaft on the Great Eastern shaft.
While there is large quantity of miner
al IN sight, no effort Is being made at
stopping for the reason that the manager
is desirous of sinking the shaft another
100 feet in order that a number of levels
may be driven.
The New Era company is one of the
big propositions OF the Freeland district
and thousands of dollars are being spent
in prosecuting development work. J.. r.
Elgan is manager of the property.
The Poorman company, which is op-
Grating at Freeland, has received a new
gasoline hoist which was ordered some
time ago. The hoist is to be placed in
the adIt level a distance of 400 feet where
a Wine is to be sunk. There is a good
body of mineral in sight and the indica-
tions are that the shoot will go down.
AT the present time the adit is in 700
feet and it is the intention of the COM
pany to proceed with the bore for a con-
siderable distance. Later, they have in
contemplation tunnel on a very preten-
uous scale. The proposition is to COM
mence the said tunnel at a point near
Dumont and thereby secure the greatly
needed railroad facilities.
Some time during the coming week
the Freeland Extension company will
start up their electric drills. A Leyner
air compressor has been received and is
now being put in place. AT depth of
400 feet in the shaft the ore body has
been opened and il is the intention of
those in charge to continue sinking in
order to make a connection with the old
levels, when drifting will be commenced.
The ore appears to be of the same high
grade as that formerly found in the old
workings of the Freeland.

Will Organize a Company.

A complete steam plant is being in
stalled on the Allen group of mines in
the Cascade district. The machinery con-
sists of double-cylinder hoist, a steam
engine and a 6o-horse power boiler 1t
is expected that this will be in working
order by the first of November, at which
time sinking will be started on the Little
Flat lode. The shaft is only down at
the present time few feet, but sinking

TWO BIG
DEALS
COMPLETED
The Teller Group and Morning Star Sold
This Week.

LII OAOhP dhI otdI OOio
This Week.
A deal which will mean much to the
Freelaud district was consummatted on
Thursday morning when the Teller group
of mines situated in that locality, were
turned over to Monroe, Rogers & Co. of
New York City
This property is situated between the
noted Freeland and the famous Lamar
tine mines, both of which have produc-
ton records which total up in the mil
lions. Long years ago the Teller was a
producer but work has been suspended
for a considerable period.
While the consideration is withheld
from the public for certain reasons, it is
enough to say that the amount paid was
no small item.
Mr.. Owen retains an interest in the
company by the terms of the sale, and
will act as general manager. He is now
in Denver for the purpose of placing an
order for heavy plant of machinery to
be installed on the property.
The Teller mine is the principal one
and the best known in the group. On this
property the shaft is now down 2So feet,
with four sets of levels which are Just
being stared
There is good showing of ore in the
mine from the top to the bottom, but up
to date no stopping has ever been done, as
enough ore could be taken out during
the work of drifting and sinking to de-
termine the ore values.
Owing to the situation of the property
there is no reason why with proper de-
velopment work it should not become
one of the leading producers in this end
of the county
The Boston and Cleveland Mining
company, owners of the Morning Siar up
Gilsen Gulch will, in the near future, in
stall heavy plant of machinery on their
property.
John Owen, who is one of the heaviest
stockholders in the company, when he
returned from New York the latter part
of last week, at once made arrange
ments for the placing ofthe order for the
machinery. An So-horse power boiler
will be installed as will also a 90 horse
power engine.
The Morning Star has produced more
than $50, 1000, but for several months has
been idle. The shaft is down 28s feet,
and as soon as the machinery is in place
sinking will be resumed.
Some of the richest ore ever found in
this end of Clear Creek county was taken
out Of the Morning Star. At one time
there was a body of ore opened up which
gave returns of SS 900 to the ton It is
thought that with the proper develop
ment the vein from which this mineral
was taken will be again encountered, and
that the production will again be on the
same order that it formerly.
This company is backed by wealthy
Boston and Cleveland gentlemen, and
from a telegram received on Tuesday of
this week by Mr.. Owen, he was informed
that he might order the machinery nee
essary and start work on the property.
At the start more than $4,000 will be ex-
pended for machinery alone, and no time
will be lost in putting the mine in good
working condition. 1t is probable that
about twenty meu will be employed dur
ing the winter months.

boom, and if the plans of the Clear Greek
Gold Mining and Dregging company are
half carried out, the production record of
Clear Greek county will be almost doub-
led.
The property of the above named conf
pany was advertised to be sold at sheriff 5
sale in Golden, and when the bids were
received it was found that the company
had representatives, in the field with in
structions to secure the property at any
price.
The first bid received by the sheriff
was 100000 and it represented just what
the instructions were from the promoters
of the old company. No other bids were
offered and accordingly the property once
again passes into the hands of the men
who started the enterprise.
There were three judgments against
the property, amounting in all to $1,000,
and the sale was advertised for the pur-
pose of satisfying the above. The sum
due was paid into the courts hands and
the property is now in the same condition
as it was previous to the Indebtedness.
II is the intention of the company to
spend in the neighborhood of $3.50, 900 in
putting the necessary machinery on the
ground. Everything used in placer min
ing that is known to be of value will be
installed at an early date.
The pipe line which was started some
years ago and which was built for several
miles, is to be repaired as quickly as pos
sible and in addition to this the line will
be continued for a considerable distance.
The property has not been worked for
a number of years to any great extent.
At one time, or at the start of the enter
prise, the improvements which were
made amounted TO more than $500, 900.
A legal tangle resulted and the outcome
of it all was that operations were sus-
pended indefinitely.
During the last few months the move
ment to reorganize the company was put
on foot and the result was that every
thing was arranged most satisfactorily.
Now that all legal troubles have been
CARDS the final outcome of the work in
hand.
Two men are now at work doing placer
work and it is reported on excellent au-
thority that they taking out good
quantities of the dust. While they are
not equipped with the latest improved
machinery for the work. they have dem
onstrated to the owners that the gold is
there in sufficient quantities to pay for
working the property.
Grading has already been commenced
and the pipes are being repaired. This
work will occupy considerable time, but
when it is taken into consideration that
gold is TO be taken out as work progress
es, it is no small item in mining fields.
The property is owned by capitalists in
New York and one man who is familiar
with the inside workings of the company
makes the statement that 100000 will be
expended if necessary.
Other parties along the creek have also
taken to placer mining on property ada
cent to this, and now in a short time it
will be a common thing to see the creek
lined with men who are at work taking
out the precious fetal.
The property is located near Floyd hill
and extends for number of miles, both
below and above.
