THERE appears to be some little
contention between the Water De-
partment and Lea & Sons Company
and the Park Commissioners, over
building dam across the Brandy
wine, where the old Barley Mil
dam stood for years. Tho Park
Commissioners want to erect dam
ut this point, SO our people can have
skating place this winter, if the
weather permits. 1t is hoped the
Water Department and Lea d. Sons
will allow the dam to be built and
not gain the i'll will of the people
by their non-consent.

Gomez Going Ahead.

The Gomez mine, situated on Warren
gulch, resumed operations this week. The
property is being unwatered and as soon
as this work is completed, sinking will
be commenced. This mine is owned by
Boston gentlemen and was closed down
some time owing to a misunderstanding
as to the proper way in which the work
should be done. There is plenty of capi-
tai behind the enterprise and the people
can look for something doing in that vi
cinity from this time on.

Union Group.

The Union group of mines on Silver
mountain which was recently acquired
by a syndicate of Kansas and Nebraska
gentlemen. is being developed on a most
extensive scale. An upraise is being
made from the present tunnel level to the
surface, distance of thirty feet At this
point shaft house will be erected. A
large and complete plant of machinery is
at present on the grounds awaiting the
completion of the buildings which are
now under way.
The above work, it is expected, will be
completed within the next thirty days,
and the machinery will be installed, at
which time sinking will be commenced.
At the bottom of the forty-five foot
winze there is a streak of smelling ore
about fourteen inches in width which
gives returns of better than eighty dol
lars to the ton. This will be converted
into surface shaft by the upraise.

Work on the Seaton.

A plant of machinery four times as big
as the one in use at the present time is to
be installed upon the Seaton in a short
time. Moses S. Rosenthal, secretary of
the company, has been in the city this
week and in company with Manager F.
S. Goldsmith. has been inspecting the
property.
Mr.. Rosenthal is of the opinion that
the new mill discussed some time ago is
one of the needed improvements and it
is quite probable that work will begin
on the mill very soon.
The mine is showing up better at the
present time than it ever has before and
throughout the drifts can be seen great
quantities of ore which await the miners

viii Operate on Ute Creek.

Another new company has been incor-
porated which will operate in the county.
1t is known as the Chicago Gold Mining
and Tunnel company, and has capital
stock of 81 900, 600. The directors of the
new corporation are Thomas F. Somers,
Nathan Glieck, William f. Mayhew, w
E. Geise, John F. Farley, Frank Percy
and Mrs. Frank Percy.
The company has secured some valua-
BILE claims up OH Ute creek and for some
time they have been in the hands of Mr..
Farley. 1t is intended by the manage
ment to at once place the property in a
condition for extensive work and a large
plant of machinery will be installed at an
early date.
The principal offices of the company
will be in Denver.

Skaters Production.

The Shafter mine is one of the steadi-
est producers in the entire district. For
some weeks now, or since the new shaft
house was completed, the production has
been about thirty tons of ore day. All
of this is high grade and is sent to mill
of the Idaho Springs Mining and Reduc-
ton company for treatment
peculiar thing about the ore taken
from the Shafter is that there is very lit
tie of the smelling grade taken out. 1t
is composed mostly of mill dirt, and the
mining is therefore much easier. What
smelling ore there is, is mixed with their
mill dirt and all sent to the mill together.
Manager Roller says that he makes bet
ter savings by so doing and does not have
to go to the expense of sorting it.
The Shafter is being worked full time
now and as soon as a certain amount of
dead work is completed the output will
be largely increased.

Will Favor This District.

w. S. Tarbell, representing the Mining
Investor, at Colorado Springs, is in the
city doing some strenuous work for that
publication. Mr.. Tarbell states that the
Investor is going to show more than its
usual loyalty to the Idaho Springs dis
trict by making it the object of special
est mining publications in the mining
world and has always proven a loyal
friend to the district and to its mining
interests. MIR. Tarbell is gathering the
data for the big publication at the present
time and states that it will deal with all
the propositions in detail and also be a
pictorial reflection of the larger propo-
sitions.

ABOUT THE
YANKEE HILL
RAILROAD
Looks as if Central City was Making Per
sistent Effort for Little Advertising.

Looks as if Central City was Making a Per
sistent Effort for a Little Advertising.
In conversation with the citizens, or at
least many of the prominent ones, of
Yankee and Alice, it is apparent that lit
tie confidence is being placed in what is
them in speaking of the matter the other
day said
There is not resident of either place
who would even make an effort to pre-
vent the incoming of a railroad line no
matter what sourse it might come from.
The fact at the present time, however, is
against the idea of railroad To be frank
with you, we have not developed our
properties to the extent that a railroad
would be able to obtain a tonnage and
especially line running across the hills
from Central CITY. If we get railroad,
it must necessarily come up Fall river.
In my opinion the Lucania tunnel and
many of the big propositions along Fall
river will soon be in position where
they can talk tonnage and then a railroad
will be glad to come. We do not want to
spend onr own money to get line that
will be imperative half the time. One
fellow said to me that if we could Just
get railroad. we could get all the capi-
tai We need. 1t don't look TO me that
way. If we had a railroad and did not
have the tonnage to give it business suf-
hcient to pay operating expenses it looks
to ME as il we would be in worse shape
than we were before. Without Fall river
and the many mines along the line there
Is positively no chance for a railroad nor
will there be for five years to come. With
Fall river, Yankee and Alice, it looks to
me as if line might be able to do some
thing next year, provided development
continues as rapidly as it has for the past
two years.
"a line to Central City will practically
mean nothing except the ore from Alice
and Yankee. The people along Fall riv-
er will not haul their ore up hill by any
means in order to obtain a market for it.
But you can put 1t i'll your pipe and
smoke it that the people of Yankee and
Alice will not put up for a railroad line
to Central City nor will they tie up the
right of way for railroad line until they
are certain that it will be built. In my
opinion the Colorado & Southern is the
line that will do the building in time. At
any rate hope So"

Last Chance Sold.

The Last Chance mine, situated on
Chicago creek, was sold last week to a
party of Denver men, the consideration
being SIS. 600. This property has every
indication of becoming producer at an
early date. There is three inch streak
of solid lead which carries copper.
The first payment on the property was
received by Sol Nichols last week, and
it was at once turned over to the present
owners
1t is the intention of the new owners to
at once begin putting the property in a
first class shape. A plant of machinery
will be installed at once and development
work will be pushed rapidly.

Gone to Mexico.

Joeseph Boyd, manager of the Golden
Hecla company, and Jack Bell, the we'll
known mining expert, will leave in a few
days for Mexico, where they will look
after property in which they are inter
ested. The mining property is situated
on the banks of Rio del Fuerte, Realito.
The above named gentlemen intend to
develop the mines in a thorough and
systematic manner. They have ample
backing and will at once make all ar
raugements for the working of the mine.
Mr.. Boyd will not return before the
first of the year.
Idaho Springs siftings., 1902-11-15
The Conlstock.

The Comstock mine still continues to
ship large quantities of ore to the smelt-
ers and mills. On an average, two cars
of smelling ore are sent to Denver and
Golden for treatment, and in addition to
this, forty tons of mill dirt are hauled to
the Wilkie mill daily. The manager of
this mill has contract for treating 500
tons on a test, and SO far the returns have
been entirely satisfactory.
The manager of the property has given
a contract to Ole Sanden for the con-
struction of new road near the mine.
The work will be completed in short
time and then the output will be consid-
erably increased.
The Comstock is owned by Charles J.
Hughes, jr., the Denver attorney

Popular "Pres" Waterman.

Pres Waterman, who is known to a
number of the residents of this district as
an authority on mining and one of the
old time newspaper men of the state, is
lying in St. Joseph's S hospital at Denver,
suffering from acute Bright's disease. Mr.
Waterman has been a resident of Central
City since the year 1850 and during al
most the entire time has been connected
with the Register Call and later the OBJ
server of that city.

High Values in the Fraction.

The Fraction mine, situated on Spring
gulch, has opened up a big body of ore
which gives returns of thirteen ounces in
gold and 22o ounces in silver to the ton.
The streak is ten inches in width and has
been followed for distance of 100 feet.
During the work of driving this 100 feet,
the assays were always found to run very
high, but the ore encountered this week
gives better returns than any before en-
countered in the mine.
The Fraction is one of the Occidental
Development company's S mines.

NO REASON
TO WORRY
IN IDAHO
Denver Man Writes that the Idaho Springs
District will Prosper Increasingly.

District will Prosper Increasingly.
We are in receipt of a communication
from gentleman in Denver who states
man, it was stated that the decline in the
price of silver was liable to play havoc
with the district. In commenting upon
this statement, the writer says:
81 told him, and do not mind saying
to you, that it will not effect you in the
least. While it would be unfortunate to
contemplate a reduction in the price SO
that it would get down as low as forty
cents or something like that, yet such
condition of affairs would make every
gold camp greater because it would put
leasers and men out of work developing
for the gold so in the long run the prof
it derived in general way would be ev-
en- more than it is at the present time.
"I believe that the Clear Greek district
will soon become one of the greatest gold
producing districts in the entire west and
when I say this 1 believe know what 1
am talking about. There is no reason
why the people should begin to bellyache
up there the minute silver gets off point
or two, for it is bound to huctuate pretty
close around fifty cents in the future. 1
do not believe it will ever get as low as
forty cents but if it does, the hardest suf-
ferer in the state will be Aspen. George
town is already finding gold and it will
find whole lot more of it as soon as de-
velopment work is carried on and the
proper depth attained.
"All this thing of laying down as soon
as anything comes up is what makes
district dead and quiet There is no rea-
son why they should not dig for the
gold. Any man can mine in Georgetown
and make money as a matter of fact it
is better mining proposition than Ida
ho Springs, and l often think that if that
old city had the same life and energy
that Idaho Springs has, it would throw
you people in the shade SO far that you
would not know what hit you. These
are plain, hard facts, and own property
III that district and do not want to see
the people getting sore again Just because
silver has gone off a point. 1t went off
several points and look It the production
of the district today. Keep good, stiff
upper lip, all you people in Clear Greek,
and quit your whining"

Rich Ore in the WaItham.

The Waltham mine, in Russell gulch
still continues to encounter rich bodies
of ore and as depth is acquired the re-
turns continue to become larger
On Monday of this week a new streak
was opened up in sinking the shaft which
is now down 10 a depth of 100 feet 1t is
about fourteen inches wide and alongside
of the smelling there is a four foot streak
of mill dirt. A large quantity of the
mill dirt has received treatment at the
mills and in each case it has been proven
that the entire vein pays handsomely.
There has been no test on the smelling
grade as yet, other than having assays
made. On Monday samples were brought
to the city and turned over to assayers
and the following results were obtained I:
Gold, TIA; silver, 1910; copper IL per
cent, making a total value of SISII5.
This property has lately been equipped
with the necessary machinery to prose-
cute work on an extensive scale. A new
shaft house was erected and everything
is in shape for extensive work.
The property is owned by four gentle
men of this city, ard is a close company.
There can be no doubt as to the success
pf the mine.
