ANOTHER PROPERTY TO RESUME.
George Fl. Graham OF Denver, and as
sociates have taken lease and bond on
the property of the First National G. NJ.
Co., situated on the Kansas vein, also the
property of the Gould Burroughs. This
lease and bond includes very valuable
ground on the Kansas and Burroughs
veins on Quartz hill, and with proper de-
velopment work, such as is mapped out,
will have one of the best properties in
the county. The new company will put
a plant of machinery and shaft building
on the old Gould shaft, and after retim-
bering the shaft will sink it 500 feet
deeper. The company has ample means
at its command, and with judicious ex-
penditure OF the same will soon be re-
ceiving dividends.

Stewart & Co. have their plant below
the Drake tunnel on North Clear Creek,
to treat the shines, up and ready to run.
From the amount OF dead or develop
ment work that is being accomplished
at several of the deep mines in Gilpin
County, bids fair that the present
season will prove profitable one to
mine and mill operators. Other mines
that have been idle are preparing for an
early resumption of work, all of which
portends an increased ore output dur
ing 1902.
The Newhouse Tunnel is now being
driven at the rate Of II feet per day.
1. B. Seaman of the Yankee Hill Con-
solidated Tunnel company, will put in an
air compressor and power drills with

PRor. wYNN,s PROCESS.

A Salem, Oregon, press telegram Of
February 8, states that William L Long,
who has spent the past six weeks here,
claims that he has discovered new pro
cess for extracting gold from ores cheap
er than the old method, and producing
three times the amount of gold that can
be gotten by smelter. His claim is
similar to that OF Prof. Wynn, who re-
Gently died in Denver, after announcing
similar discoveries.
. Long has experimental with ore from
various sections with great success The
last experiment was made with tailings
from the Ashland smelter. Long extract
ed 40 cents from ten pounds of the tail
ings. or at the rate of 800 to the ton, af
ter the smelter had secured $40 per ton
rom the same ore.

JANuAnY. rnnnucr.

Manager p. McCann of the Kansas
Burroughs and Patch Mining companies
on Quartz hill, reports that
the output OF the former property for
last month was 26S tramway cars, repre-
senting 2275 tons. The output of the
Patch Mining company was 10 cars, or a
tonnage of $40 tons. AT the California
mine the latter company will soon be in
condition tolafgely increase their month
ly output. The values in the ore OF the
California are proving very satisfactory
to the operators of the property.

Again at the Front.

The "Wynn process" is again at the
front. George Fl. Waterbury for num-
ber of years postoffice inspector, with
headquarters in Denver, has accepted
the position of superintendent of the
laboratory, and the first of the week the
announcement was made that he had
demonstrated that the process is all that
was ever claimed for it. The company
announces that it has no stock for sale
and that a plant would probably be
erected in Denver.

Horse Thieves Abroad.

1t appears as though Gilpin County
Is likely to be infested with thieves
again, those preferring to break into
stables. Sunday evening they broke
into the barn Of George Barrick on Eu-
reka street and stole a fine s35 saddle
and bride. They broke open the loci,
with bar of iron and after securing
their booty made their escape. The
matter was reported to the authorizes.
but no trail of them could be found
Monday evening Barrick got the idea in
his head that the thieves would return,
and therefore hid himself in the stable
After awaiting about two hours he heard
two men go up the street on horseback.
and as they were passing the barn re-.
marked: "There is good horse in there
yet, but noticing the blinds of the win
dows in Barrick's house were up. said.
there is light in the house." Barrick
Immediately got out of the barn and ran
to the house and pulled down the blinds.
After course of probably ten minutes
he came out of the house and thoupht
he saw two men in the back yard. Hav-
ing shot gun with him he took a couple
OF shots at them, and then commenced
shooting with his revolvers. The thieves
ran up the hill in the rear of the barn.
barrlck following until Just above the
tramway track the thieves stopped and
commenced shooting at Barrick. The
latter having no more ammunition re-
turned home, while the thieves, who had
hitched their horses to snow fence
jumped on them and made their escape.
Sheriff Cody was notified Tuesday. and
on going there found their tracks. as
also the horses tracks, but could not fol-
low them as the ground in that vicinity
is too rocky. Nothing more has been
heard of them. since, but people with
stables had better lock them up good,
and if you see any one monkeying
around, shoot them.

Colorado Specie Payment is now reg

made great success Of this property.
In addition to the rich smelling ore he
has from ten to fifteen feet of milling
ore which is netting him 81 ton under
the stamps. Tho company has new plans
under way which will require the Drift
ing on the vein by adit for over 1000
feet. In addition several OF the tunnels
should cut this great vein by the close
Of the year, when the output will become
enormous.
