The Josephine Group Sold.

1t is officially announced that the 10.
sephine group, comprising four claims
and located just outside the city limits,
was sold last week by James E. Bowden
for $155,ooo. The purchasers immedi.
ately incorporated under the name of the
Josephine Cons. G. NJ. & NJ. Co., the cap
italization being placed at $780, 600. The
property lies alongside the Stanley Con-
solidated, which is one of the most
productive propositions in the district.
Mr.. Bowden, who for years was connect
ed with the Stanley as superintendent
and manager, is thoroughly conversant
with the possibilities of that immediate
section, as we'll as of the mines of Clear
Greek and Gilpin in general, and his
judgment is relied upon by those who
know him. The main work will consist
in sinking the Josephine shaft to at least
600 feet in depth, levels run, and mill
built to treat the ore.

Cyanide Adapted to Our District O,ss

M. w. Tanner is conducting series of
experiments in cyanlding the ores Of
Gilpin and Clear Creek counties that is
not only interesting to the average news
paper man but very liable to be of inesti-
mable benefit to our low grade ore pro-
ducers VINO are struggling in the coils of
what the Standard man calls the "octo-
pus." Mr.. Tanner is not a new hand in
cyaniding, neither is he conducting the
experiments solely in the interest of sci
ence. He long ago studied the process
that has helped to make the grade
mines of Cripple Creek famous and made
the milling industry a prof able invest
ment. Since coming here a few years
ago he has studied our ores and different
processes of treatment. About a year
ago he began some experiments, but was
more or less interrupted by his varied
mining operations. However, since the
sale of the Waltham, he has had more
time to devote to this interesting study.
He has had three tanks erected outside
the Boneita mill building and it is there
that the experiments are going on. The
concentrating ores of the Waltham, Rocky
Mountain Terror and other well known
producers in this immediate ore zone
have been carefully tested in quantity,
and the results have been highly encour-
aging. While Mr.. Tanner is naturally
reticent at this experimental stage and
does not wish to be quoted as holding
forth the promise of a revolution in ore
treatment here, still it is rumored that at
least so per cent. of the concentrating
ores and tailings of the two counties will
yield readily to cyanide and at a much
lower cost than by smelling. The tests
upon some of the mine ores, notably of
the Waltham, have been so successful
that Mr.. Tanner is arranging to contract
for carload lots. AT present the expert.
ments making are on ordinary iron tail
ings from different mills, and the results
are awaited with interest. Mr.. Tanner
has engaged one of the Coddington store
rooms in which to make the concluding
tests.

R. w. Mckenzie, who with his brother
John is driving the Beresford tunnel un-
der contract, was in the city Wednesday.
The Beresford starts into the mountain
some distance above the town of Free
lard and is designed to cut two groups of
claims in which the McKenzies hold
large interests. The tunneling is being
done on a cross vein, the heading being
about IS feet in and already nice body
of ore Is opened, there being two feet of
mill dirt, including small smelling
streak, all running in lead and gold. In
the IS feet of driving three veins have
been crossed, and in 80 feet more the
West London, owned by the Beresford
people, will be reached. From now on
it is confidently expected that good values
will be the rule. From the portal of the
tunnel to the Poorman, another PROPOSE
ton of the McKenzies, is about one half
mile, and in all probability that will be
the objective point. Richard Willis of
Colorado Springs is part owner in the
Beresford. Mr.. Mckenzie states that he
has engaged Jack and Wm. o. Jones to
assist in the tunnel driving, and that they
are making fine record. He also states
that it is the intention of himself and
brother to put up machinery and drive
ahead in the Coronation tunnel, below
Freeland. This is in 255 feet and started
for group, the first vein of which is 200
feet distant from the breast.
Idaho Springs siftings., 1903-07-18

The power drills at the Burns Moore
tunnel, five miles up Chicago creek, were
started last Monday morning by the con-
tractors and 1t is expected that from now
on the operations will be continuous, The
extent of the present contract has not
been announced, but we are informed
that arrangements have been perfected
for continuing the work indefinitely, if
the management so desires. The heading
of the tunnel is in 900 feet and is near
ing some veins that show good values.
These veins have but limited develop
ment, but their strength and character
indicate that they only need depth and
exploitation to ensure good returns. This
can be economically accomplished
through the Burns Moore. The main
field for this enterprise, however, begins
when the Ella Mckinney, Charter Oak,
Humboldt and farther groups with fine
records are reached. These will be cut
at depths that mean years of production
and miles of workings above the tunnel
level. The Burns Moore courses through
one of the best mineral zones in the
county, and if carried to the objective
point assures prosperous future for the
hackers of the enterprise and an immense
future production from the big properties
of that section.

Thinks Three a Lucky Number.

]. w. Boyd went to Denver the first of
the week upon matters concerning the
Augusta mine, a copper proposition stu
ate near Evergreen His visit was to
make arrangements, if possible, to start
up that property, as he considers it good
investment.
Mr. Boyd is interested in other mining
propositions as we'll, one being the Alad-
din group of claims, in the famous
Horseshoe" country and southwest of
Georgetown. The development so far is
comparatively superficial, but the surface
indications and the workings warrant
systematic exploitation. J. B Odea, Mr..
Boyd's partner, is on the ground and
superintends the work. The adit tunnel
is in 10 feet on the Aladdin vein and an
ore body two and one-half feet wide has
provsn values-I6 inches running $50
US. silver and 80 to 90 per cent. lead; the
balance of the streak goes SO to 100 ozs
silver A cross vein returns from I to S
ozs. gold in a SIX inch streak at grass
roots. The group is situated near the
Pennsylvania. Float ore of the Aladdin
has assayed as high as 100 ozs. silver.
His remaining and third proposition is
a group in old Mexico in the Andres del
Rio district. A force of 20 men is there
employed in tunnel driving and stoping.
The ore obtained is being piled up, await.
ing the completion of the stamp mill
The Kansas City, Mexican and Orient
railroad will reach the mine in a short
while.

To show that the knocker is not con-
fined to any particular camp, the follow
ing from the Georgetown Courier is
given space in this department 1t is
merely sample of the complaints COM
ing in almost every mining exchange:
Another sale of one of the oldest mines
in the district was knocked out this week
by the letter writer. The money had
been deposited for the purchase of the
property, and in few more days the deal
would have been completed. The prop
erty is a good one and has produced a
great deal of high h-grade ore. This is the
fourth or fifth sale that has been blocked
the past few months by interference of
parties who had nothing to gain, and
Georgetown a great deal to lose"

James McConnaghey, AL Straub and
jules Hulllet have nearly everything in
readiness for jigging the paying part of
the big dump of the Jo. Reynolds mine.
six horse power gasoline eugine has
been installed and Mr. McConnaghy,
who has charge of the work, is figuring
on revolving jigs. AS he jocosely re-
marks, he will have a complete concen-
traitor upon the ground before long.
Silver creek will furnish sufficient water
for the jigs and rifles. The interested
parties should realize handsomely from
this venture. The 10. Reynolds produc.
ton began when Clear Greek county was
young and the older dumps undoubtedly
are fruitful in concentrating material OF
high grade. Should this enterprise be
winner, others of similar character
will follow.

In general resume of the mining in
terests of Colorado, General Frank Hall,
of the Denver Post, has this to say of the
Clear Greek section: There is a de-
cided awakening this year also in the
Clear Creek valley from Idaho Springs
to Empire and Georgetown. The great
veins cut by the Newhouse tunnel have
been put under brisk development above
and at the tunnel level. The Sun and
Moon one of the big combinations that
has been idle for some months, has ad-
iusted its difficulties aud is again in Wig
orous exploitation of its mines. The
Monarch or McClelland tunnel at Du-
mont is pushing for the Freeland terri
tory, where fine bonanzas await its COM
pletion. The Reynolds tunnel at Law
son is striking for the treasures of the
Red Elephant Mountain and the Kelley
tunnel at Georgetown is hunting for rich
ore that we are assured will be encount-
cred before June expires"

The Argus tunnel, which is now $40 #.

of fine ore. Some time ago a six-inch
vein was crossed and east and west drifts
have been started, both showing we'll.
No effort will be made for the present to
make shipments, as the promoters desire
to develop the vein in the expectation
that it will widen and grow richer. In
all events, this is one of the best veins
yet encountered and gives promise of
great things, furnishing much encourage
ment to the owners.
