out the world. This tract is known
as the Comet In 5rilliancy Its
name is not q misnomer, but in point
of permanently the word Comet does
not apply. This single claim is dis
tinct from che other holdings of the
Imperial and its end lines are CON
current with the end lines of the
Cactus mine owned by Samuel New
house and which IS acknowledged to
be one Of the rarcst and greatest
mines on earth. Tt might be stated
here that comparisons, figures and
estimates are inadequate to express
conditions that exist, generally, in
Beaver county, but more particularly
does this condition prevail in the
Comet and Cactus vicinity.
Sold the Cactus.
The worth Of the Cactus was EN-
phasized also by Mr.. Lewis, who
some two years ago obtained con-
troll of that property and afterwards
disposed of it to Mr.. Newhouse. A
description of the Cactus and of the
work being done upon and about il,
appears in another article IN this IS
sue. but as to the Comet itself too
much cannot be said. Limited in
area and unlimited in wealth, it IS
without a peer. It's territory is ira
versed by four distinct and parallel
veins, about the apiees of which
there can be no doubt Only one of
these veins has been explored. but
this exploration work has revealed a
simple treasure house. At a depth
of probably sixty feet the ore car
ries values measured by over - per
cent copper. While these astound-
ing values do not continue, the ex-
tcns of the ore not only does CON
tinuc. but increases with depth. The
ore Is copper sulphide IN form,
favorable for concentration. At the
100-foot level, on the vein being
worked. the ore has beer cross-cut
for a distance Of 15G feet. Mixed
with the copper are iron pyrites,
mostly crystallized, and at this place
the showing is dazzling. The face
exposed is dotted with miniature mir
rors. revealing the wonderful and ac-
eurate work OF the World-maker.
Viewing this place. one cannot but
be impressed with the fact that there
is a World-maker, whose work was

of them are in ore. On the north
side Of the gulch, where lies the

operation. A report from Colonel
Parish, recently made, states that
from 1000 to 5000 tons per day can
be taken from this ground, without
taxing its resources.
The Imperial Properties.
Leaving Milford vicinity, the work
of Mr.. Lewis Is next encountered in
the neighborhood of Frisco, some
twenty miles to the west. Here are
located the Imperial properties, on
which work has been prosecuted with
in the last two years with results
which. in order to be comprehended.
should be seen aud not described.
In the Imperial group are forty-six
claims, eight of which are patented

this ground much wealth has been
taken, and on the surface are prob
ably the most wonderful showings In

from 1,40O to 1.SO0 feet A little
more than 100 feet of further work,

and even greater body Of ore than
that through which the tunnel has
passed, and viii also connect with
Wine in the old workings and give
@ circulation TO the mine and a
cheaper method of extracting its
ores. This property is well equipped
with buildings and machinery, and
is now practically ready for produe-
ton should the even greater and
richer ore bodies contemplated not
be found

the sun At the 200-foot level, as
far as the work has progressed, the
same showings continue. To call the
Comet a million dollar property
would be a ridiculous underestima-
ton. Unlike the expression Of the
Queen of Sheba about the wisdom of
King Solomon when she exclaimed:
"The half has not been told me-
IN the case of the Comet, the one
half cannot be told. Should Mr.
Lewis, By any of the uncertainties
incident to business and so often
encountered, lose all of his proper
ties. except the Comet, he would still
be entitled to be classed individually
as a man Of wealth beside Mr.. New
house, the owner of the Cactus, the
Comets nearest neighbor, and with
the other rich men Of the country.
But a few hundred feet from the
shaft on this property the Cactus Is
down a distance of 500 feet, at which
point the ledge Is well defined, and
the best mining talent, who have ex-
amined the ground, estimate that the
ore bodies viii continue indefinitely

even more While the water IN the
Comet is not sufficient to interrupt
the work begun. when good pumping
appliances are used, yet it Is ample
for operating a concentration of al

investigation shows the possibilities
of future mining, the extent on which
it can be operated and the perma
neney Of It's duration.
In all mining there are three Gle
ments to be considered-the honesty
of the management, tho integrity of
the management and the merit of the
ground. Viewing the neat work at
the Comet, and its wonderful results,
the inspector is convinced that in
this instance the man and the mine

All this property is located In that
southern country to which tho at
tention of the public is now directed
with much eageIness. Its worth Is
also being magnifed by reason of the
construction of the railroad being
built through that region from Salt
