The tunnel on the Gold King com

for which the management was driy-
ing. A good body of mineral similar
in character to that showing in the

Rafael Estrada, prominent min

BRIGHT OUTLOOK
FOR SEVEN DEVILS
INDICATIONS ARE THAT MANY CLAIMS
WILL BE OPERATED SHORTLY.

G.. M. Mcdowell, general manager
and superintendent of the company,
arrived in the city Saturday, from
tour of inspection of the work being
done at Ho mestead; to view the
roads from Huntington to Homestead
and from Council to Homestead, to
determine by which route they would
send the material and supplies to
Homestead, and also to look at some
OF the leading properties of the Seven
Devils district, IN order to ascertain
the amount OF ores they could get
from the district to keep their smelt-
er in operation.
They were well pleased with what
they observed in tue district, and the
outlook for ore from it, and also de-
cided to ship all their supplies and
material for Homestead, via the
p. & |. n. railroad to Council, and
transport it from that point by teams,
1T being shorter and more pracIic
able route than via Huntington.
The Ladd Metals company haI
now more than 10000 pounds Of
supplies at Council awaiting ship
ment 10 Homestead. They are noy
arranging TO put teams 70 worl
transporting what is now there, and
10 remove what arrives 10 the future
as rapidly as il can be handled.

From present indications it looks
as though the Seven Devils district
will be lively camp in very short
time Claims that have lain idle for
several years will have large forces
of miners employed in them, taking
out the rich copper ores which have
made the Seven Devils district
famous. There has been large sums
of money spent in the development
OF properties in the Seven Devils
much has been spent In man
ner that is almost criminal. Ihe
work that will be done in the future
will be of benefit to the entire camp.
The building of the smelter OF tne
Lsdd Metals company at Homestead
ill afford a market near at hand for
all the ore that will be produced.
The Ladd Metals company propose
to deal fairly by the miners OF Tue
district. and will pay them a salts.
factory price for their ore. This Will
cause a resumption Of work in the DIS
