From Silver Siantsr1
Charles Morris was visitor here on
Tuesday looking after his mining inter
es,s. The Dunkirk is looking well and
some nice ore is being extracted
The Terrible mine is not the only one
that has had trouble with their pipe line
this winter, as nearly, if not all the pipe
lines in the county have been frozen, in
similar enterprises.
Superintendent Frank Oliver of the
Stevens group returned from Denver on
Tuesday, and reports every thing in readi-
ness to begin turning out ore from the
richest lead producer in Colorado.
Joseph Proutt. who left this city about
a year ago, having been rendered posi-
ton by Gov Peabody, returned on
Wednesday evening. He is again en-
ployed at the Seven Thirty mine as
blacksmith. We are always glad to see
our citizens return.
Meyers & Ward, on the Vulcan have
recently encountered nice streak of
silver and lead ore and sulphurets, test
Of 600 pounds giving returns of zoI ozs
silver and 81 per cent lead. large ship
ment from this lease will be made about
the 2sth of this month.
Nels Anderson & Co. shipped two
wagon loads of high grade ore from their
lease on the Seven Thirty yesterday.
They have put two shifts to work recent
ly, and will average two wagon loads
each week from now ON. The two loads
shipped this week gave returns Of 497H
and 772H ounces Of silver per ton.
Nszro & Co. have leased the Frostburg
dump from Sup't John Old. and will con-
struct tramway for the handling of ores
This will be an economical process. as it
Idaho Springs siftings., 1904-03-19

will carry the material from the mine
direct to the railroad cars. The ma
chinery for the new enterprise arrived the
fore part of the week.
Ben Warner, an old time prospector
and discoverer of the Atlantic mine, was
visitor in town ON Tuesday. He made
the discovery in the year 1872 and con-
tinued his prospecting until 1890. The
Atlantic is situated above the Baltimore
group. Mr.. Warner remembers all the
old-timers OF this district and made in
quiries as to their whereabouts.
Vim. Southwark and Thomas Calvin
have taken lease on the old Lebanon
mine Just below town, and have recently
encountered nice streak of high grade
grey copper. This mine, which resumed
operations after an idleness of many
years, is looking well in all parts. A
great many leasers are at work develop
ing the property and some splendid show
ings are being made.
James Garrett. Manager Stephens and
w ]. Pomeroy will attend banquet to
be given by Charles Stephens aud Leo
Rebel at the Indiana mine this evening.
Squirrel pie, mountain rat fry. ground
hog and quail on toast, also coyote stew
will be served. chas. Stephen and Jim
Garret will be the cooks on this occasion,
and ''water whelps" are promised for
breakfast Sunday. Gas understands
beef. and should make rattling spread
with such a variety of fowls.

The Specie Payment.

A resident of Denver, long interested
IN mining affairs. just returned from
trip to Gilpin and Clear Greek counties,
furnishes the results OF his observations
to the Post as follows;
ANY of the old-timers of Cilpin and
Clear Creek counties around Denver who
have not been up about their old haunts
for some time, would be surprised at the
amount of work going on, aud how the
modern methods have superseded the
crude manner OF mining OF years ago.
The writer was greatly astonished by
the activity prevailing throughout the
district. Travelling from Central City to
Idaho Springs after night. as we entered
Virginia canon, an electrict light showed
up, indicating new industry. On in
quiry found that a thoroughly modern
plant of machinery had been installed for
the purpose OF driving tunnel through
Bellevue mountain in order TO develop the
Specie Payment company's property
This company is composed OF Providence
and Boston men, and has always been
worked from an incline shaft near the top
of the mountain, necessarily to disad-
vantage by reason of the hard pull in
Specie Payment has been good producer
and paid dividends. but year or TWO ago
BY reason ofthe development not keeping
pace with the production possibly, divi-
l. .,,S-..,I.I
nomic method OF working had to be de-
vised. The officers came out from Provi-
dence and called to their counsel A. NJ.
Welles, NJ. T., who. after making an
exhaustive examination of the property,
recommended the running of this tunnel
at the base of the mountain. which will
cut the Specie vein some 400 feet deep.
or about 700 feet below the present work
feet. for which all of the funds have been
provided, but long before that distance is
run or the Specie vein has been cut other
veins known to exis, in Bellvue mountain
will be intersected, which will no doubt
yield handsome profit.
II is for the purpose of driving this tuu-
mel that the machinery has been installed.
II Is now in about 800 feet, after about
two months OF active work. and is max
ing hcadwsy at the rate sf roo to 200 fee,
per month.
The machinery plant is a model Of con-
struction and convenience. So many
mining plants are hastily put together,
with no apparent thought of economy OF
convenience. that it is pleasure to see
one with all the little details worked gu,
for the economy of the company and CON
yeuience of the workuien. II consists o'
a battery of two 80 horse power Scotch
Marine boilers. Buffalo 20 horse power
upright engine to run the ventilator, and
electric dynamo, a Rand Cross compound
air compressor, of the imperial type, and
the drills used are the new ~ Sargent
and is inch Rand Sluggers. The tun.
mel will be lighted by electricity. The
timbering track and everything about il
is of the very best. If the ore is in tha,
hill which its pas; record couoiasively
proves. it will not be long before ii viii
be pouring out Of this tunnel. instead o
being hois,ed to the top of the mountain

lease on the dump at the Gold Rock
mine and will run all the product through
the mill in this city. This property has
not been worked for several years. but at

devoted their attention to smelling ore

Vilas County news. [volume] (Eagle River, Vilas County, Wis.) 1896-1927, 1904-06-27

New York, June 24,-Iacob H.
Schiff, treasurer of the committee APP
pointed to solicit subscriptions for the
relief of the victims of the Slocum
disaster, reported yesterday that the
committee had thus far received over
$4,000.
Much of the testimony given at the
inquest today into the disaster went
to show that the life preservers on
the steamer were practically useless.
At least half a dozen witnesses de-
scribed how difficult the life preserv-
ers were to get at and how they fell
to pieces at critical times.
Captain Van Schaick was brought
