FROM CLIFTON DISTRICT.
Showing at the Lucy L. and Copper
Belt-Strike Near the Midas.

Clifton, Deep Greek. Sept LIT is
believed here that the long expected
and often predicted mining boom IL
this great mining district is about to
materialize. Strikes seem 20 be the
order of the day throughout this re-
giOn, some Of such magnitude as TO
astOnish even the old timers.
a visit to the Lucy / group Of
claims, owned by the Lucy L Mining
& Milling company and operated un-
der the direction Of the Wilson broth
ers, was interesting. This property,
consisting of four mining claims, is
about three and One-half miles from
Clifton in a nOrtherly direction. The
main incline following the vein, which
pitches 10 the northwest about As de-
grees, was sunk to a depth of about
leo feet From the bottom Of the
shaft a level was started in the same
general direction as the incline to
crOSscut the ledge. A careful exam
nation showed the crosscut had been
running through ore for more than
thirty feet and that the quality Of the
rock improved as the work advanced.
while information from the mine this
evening is to the effect that they are
still in ore and have not encountered
any wall The ore contains fine values
in gold and copper. and from appear
ances much OF IL would pay TO haul 10

a fine body of high grade copper and
gold ore was also encountered I'm a
shaft recently sunk on the property Of
the CopBer Belt Mining & Milling com
parfy, which promises, on further work
ing. to be another bonanza.
Frank l. Wilson, secretary and
treasurer of both the Lucy L and Cop
per Belt companies, who came OUt
from Salt Lake some weeks ago to
Inspect the properties, was billed to
return to Zion several days since, but
he cannot tear himself away until he
sees the other side of the ore body in
the Lucy L.
Another strike in this vicinity which
for richness is remarkable was recent
ly made by John st. JeOr, in charge
of the Midas property; Alma White and
Perry Lewis, on the Mishap, a claim
recently located by them near the
Midas. They have just begun work on
the vein. which is three feet in width.
An average of three samples, which
they had assayed from the surface.
was S137 in gold.
This property is reported TO have
been promptly taken in by James Chip
man of the Midas company at a figure
satisfactory to the owners.

lhat this wagon road viii be converted

ores from all over that section can be

Several companies and individuals are

$4,000. or $500 per mile. and will likely be

Mammoth, Sept. 26.-An idea Of the
proportions of the fat streak" in the
Star Consolidated can be obtained from
the statement that one man with a
single Jack broke ten mine cars of ore
on one shift. With every shot the ore
chimney increases in size, and now
promises to rival if not exceed any
thing yet opened i'm the mine With
only one wall visible it requires four
square sets to timber up, and Of this
the face shows eight feet of the high
grade material, of which a car Of
thirty-seven and one-half tons last
week brought a check for SO, 361 40.
About half a car Of an equally good
II not better, grade is piled up in
the ore house, and the management
expects 90 be able TO complete the lot
by Monday. OF the balance Of this
marvellous stope. the entire mass is
shipping ore. and but for the presence
of the Monte Cristo streak would be
reckcaed as first class. OF this sec
ond grade" stwo cars went in this week
that should bring, according TO mine
sampling, $1,000 EACH
The magnitude of this chimney
can best be understood when il is
considered that the winze from the
300 level was sunk for sixty fifive feet
IN ore, the amount taken out in that
distance netting the company $1,000,
and that the raise from the 400 level
is also in ore almost the entire dis
tance. Chutes have been put in during
the W eek to the 400, and active stopping
operations have been recommended.
In the meantime the drift on the ifs

crossing in heavily mineralized ground

After Slumping the Mining Share

The past week on the mining exchange
has witnessed the selling down of a ma
J0rity OF the active traders from opening
figures but, aside from isolated instances,
the close found ths list gradually
strengthening. The eastern markets have
drawn heavily on Salt Lake talent dur

market here hGs suffered. During the
week a total of 255. 939 shares Of stock,
with selling value of $50. 1870, changed
