Excellent shape, with quite good deal
I bf ore in sight. Besides these properties
&here are any number Of properties be-
Mig worked by the owners or under lease,
Ead large amount Of ore is being min
ID. This district is principally in Clear
TGreek county. Should the recently sur
ffeyed railroad become reality the dis
,tr;ct will vie with some of the older
eEmps IN the matter of production of the
previous metals.
E'l'he Nevadaville district has been
s2mewhat quiet the past year. owing to
fhe closing down of the California and
Hidden Treasure mines. At the Kansas
Burroughs mines the company has been

good production. At the Ophir mine
the home pool which is working it
kdve been kept busy doing develop
pent work, and of late they have been
Doing well, and the mine is looking very
good at present. On the Gould Bur

They have done great amount of dead
work, but Manager Parenteau now has
the mine in good shape for the shipment

and driving levels on the Pozo mine, but
owing to the large amount of zinc in the

1fes do not find good market for
them. On King Flat the Nevadaville
Mining company has been doing
Development on the King and the
Oranoke veins, under the management
OF 6. E. Moore. The water has been
taken out of the King mine, and levels
dfjyen and stopiug done in both the
King and Oranoke mines. At the True
Democracy II. c. Bolsinger has been
keaping force of miners at work in
sinking and driving drifts. The main
shaft is down little over 200 feet. A
ve1y good body of ore has been encount-
cred, which it is thought Will open up
with further developments. At the Alps
/ mine Williams & Co. have had hard
puh of doing dead work, but within the
past two weeks they have encountered
an ore body which they think is the
main ore chute OF the mine. Should
this prove to be true the pool will be
WEB repaid for their % months of dead
work. 1t is not often that local pool
