THE GOLD BUG MINE.
Gives Promise of Becoming a Rich Mine
With Depth-the Lead Is now r6 Feet
in Width and Contains Free Gold
Quartz.

w. Fl. Green, the superintend-
ent of the Upper Platte Gold
Mining Company, returned Satur-
day from a trip to the company's
properties % miles east of here.
He came down on snow shoes as
far as the ranch of G. A. Kenna-
day. He says he found it very
hard shooting on account of a
fresh fall of light snow, to the
depth of four or FIVE inches the
night before, obliterating the road
and all familiar land marks.
Mr.. Greene says they are now
down IS feet in the shaft on the
Gold Bug vein and hat the indi-
cations grow more and more prom
Using with every foot of depth
They have not yet reached the
solid formation and do not expect
to find the ore in place until they
go considerably deeper. At pres
ent the vein is Is feet in width.
but it is thought it will narrow up
and grow much richer when they
rea9h a depth where the formation
is solid.
j. F.. Pullam, jacob Mauk and
Ralph Miller, who are employed
at the camp, came down from that
place last Sunday. In c~onversa-
ton with Mr.. Pullum who is we'll
informed on such matters he said:
"The Gold Bug is certainly a fine
claim and is one of the coming
gold properties Of the West in my
estimation. In fact Gold Hill is
going to be one of the richest
mining camps any where in this
country. But miners will have
to go to some depth to get it.
Look at Stratton. He had to 90
over 300 feet before he found any
ore worth anything in his Cripple
Greek mine. That is what will
have to lie done in Gold Hill.
Just as soon MS they get depth
they will find rich ore. The vein
on the Gold Bug, where we are
now at work, is Is feet in width.
That is a very large vein and it
has free gold quartz scattered all
through it. 1t is probable that
when they get down to n depth
where the formation is not broken
up, as it is now, that the lead will
not be SO large as it is now, but
it will be a great deal richer and
will increase in richness as they
go down"

Hinton, w. Va, Aug. 27.-Great ex-
citement exists in the vicinity Of Red
! Ash and Beury today, caused by the
constables removing the striking miners
from the companies houses. About
forty families, who were notified to
leave the houses of the Red Ash Coal
company, refused to vacate, and when
the constables began to remove their
household goods, a volley of shots were
fired at the officers from the opposite
side Of the river. They returned the
fire, using Winchesters, and it is estl-
mated that 500 shots We're fired. The
shooting was all at long range, and no
one on the Red Ash side was hurt.
About forty deputies, who have been
stationed at Thurmond and other points
in the striking district, were rushed to
the scene of the shooting, and late
report now states that the men who be-
gan the firing are now surrounded.
The officers are removing the house,
hold goods, and the houses will be occu-
pied by other miners, who are willing
to work.
The coal output is steadily increasing.
One hundred and ten cars of coal and
twenty-three cars of coke We're loaded
