THE GOLD COIN AGAIN.
Not Only Contains Lead and Silver in
Large Quantities, But Begins to level
op Into a Geld Proposition-Free Gold
Quartz Found in the Ore.

The Gold Coin mine. which has
been rather prominently before
the people Of this city, is again
to the front, bidding for attention.
Heretofore this mine has only
laid claim to a large amount of
silver and lead in its ores. the for
mer running as high as SCI
ounces Now the of that
claim are beginning to find free
gold specimens in the ore taken
from the 100 foot level. The dis.
covery was entirely by accident.
One of the men who was helping
sort the ore for shipment, acct.
dentally found a lump of rock
which contained what he took to
be gold nuggets. The rock was
carefully examined and found to
contain many particles Of free
gold all through it, with some
large sized nuggets. MOI satisfied
with their own examination the
rock was taken to Jeweler Scott
and, after a careful examination
and ~subjecting the ore to the US
ual tests, Mr.. Scott pronounced
it gold.
There is considerable interest
felt all over the town over this
discovery. This mine, which is
the property. of the Badger Stat,
Mining and Milling Co, the in.
corporators of which are citizen.
of Saratoga, is tributary to this
place. The Gold Coin has al
ways been regarded as a very rich
mine, owing to the very large
amount of silver and lead which
it carried. Property owner in
that vicinity have regarded the.
ores in that country as being
more valuable for gold han any
other metal, but the Gold Coin
has not shown but very little
gold in the assays had heretofore,
though it must be confessed that
no assay has been had since the
shaft a down to a depth of Y
feet, and the present rock was
taken from a depth of lob feet
A very great change is liable t,
come in the ore after the shat;
has attained SO much greater
depth.
Our people will look forward
with interest to the development
work which is done on this mine.
confident that it will develop into
a very valuable mine within tn,
next hundred feet. 1t also stands
to renson that should the Gold
Coin turn out a shipper that there
will be many other rich mines
discovered in that vicinity.

Nels. Hanson, a ranchman at La
barge, Uinta county, a few days ago
had an adventure that, while start
ling, did not result in any physical
injury. He was returning to his
home from Labarge after shutdown,
and it was very dark. Suddenly he
heard a report, saw a fash and his
horse dropped between his legs. As
soon as he recovered his feet Hanson
made an examination and discovered
that the animal had been shot. In a
minute an unknown man appeared
leading a horse and offered the steed
to Hanson to ride home on. Hanson
feared TO ask any questions, but ac
crpted the offer. The unknown
walked at the horses head until the
ranch was reached, then mounting
rode away in The darkness. Hanson
believes that the man was lying in
wait TO assassinate someone and made
a mistake, then did what he could tc
help out his victim of his misunder.
standing. He considers himself
lucky to have escaped with is life.
