SAXTON'S GOOD SHOWING
Beyond a Doubt 1t VIII Prove
One of Ely's Best Mining
Properties.
Immense Ore Body Gut by the
Drift connec ting with the
Mcdonald Shaft.
Main Shaft Is Now In Iron, Un-
doubted Gaping A Rich
Copper Deposit.

This week will witness the compile
tion OF the drift connecting the work
ings OF the Saxton mine with the old
Mcdonald shaft and the commence
ment OF the tunnel before mentioned.
The immense ore body cut by this
drift has been referred to heretofore,
but now that the work has been com.
pleted 1t pressnts an astonishing show
ing. For distance OF 2l6l feet a body
OF ore fifteen feet in height is exposed
and how far it extends downward can
not be estimated This ore body Is
known to be 239 feet in width and the
average gold values which it contains
is between 81 and SS. That this ore
body goes down there is no doubt and
"a Itself it is bonanza, without taking
into con sideratlon the vastly richer de-
posits that have basn opsnsd up in
other parts of the property.
In the main shaft, which is down
255 feet, iron pyrites have been encoun-
tered and before many days the an
nouncement that big body of copper
sulphides has been struck may be look.

In the Aultman the work Is confined
TO drifting from the 200 level and good
progress is being made.

taking who knew absolutely nothing
about mining or milling has cost the
stock holders hand reds Of thousands OF
dollars, and they now have the consola-
tlon of knowing that they have nobody
to blame for the loss but themselves.
The Chairman is grand property,
and, as the NEWS has always contend /
ed, will be o good pa, ing proposition
for ages to come. The losses which
have been sustained thus far are as
nothing when they are compared with
the profits which will now accrue.
However, we can not pass this epoch
10 the company's affairs without calling
attention to the fact that the COM
pany's money has been squandered by
reason of incompetency and lack OF
good Judgment on the part Of the men
whom they placed in charge of their
business here.
It is true that wisdom does not con-
sist in never making a mistake, but
rather in not making the same mistake
twice. Let us hope that the stockhold-
ers and directors will profit by the les
son which has been taught and not
make the same mistake thrice.

| from New York, and went at once u
the mines at Copper Flat. Mr.. HOOK
expects to remain until Fall and during
his stay here, it is understood, all de-
tails will be arranged for the future de-
velopment of the property and a plant
decided upon for the treatment OF the
product OF the mines.
In the mine the same excellent show
ing continues, the dump showing the
same high grade OF ore, and as the new
pump Is now ready for operation 1t Is
expected that the work OF sinking Will
be resumed within few days.
It is also intended to crosscut the
southwest drift In which such large de-
posits of high grade ore has been found
and there Is no doubt that larger and
better bodies will thus be opened up.
The assays made last week showing
s1o3 in gold and 14l per cent copper
have been duplicated several times
since, the result proving that the gold
values of about 300 are correct but
the copper percentage has run consid-
erably higher, some assays showing as
high as % per cent.
