length, with many veins or outcrops
carrying good values. Quite good
many samples taken show plenty of Wis
ible gold, and samples taken at various
places which showed no gold, returned
values as follows: $2O3.76; 1890. .18;
$229.6s; 5000 and 1894. Such
values from groupings would surely in
dicate the probability Of bonanza with
development.

the erection in the near future Of a mill

tom Jaggers, "Saff'' Purdy and Thee.
Roguet, three of the oldest prospectors
in Nevada, are at work developing the
property of the newly organized Tom
Jaggers Tule Canyon Mining coming,
near Ida. They are sinking shaft 100
feet to determine the permanency Of
the ore bodies uncovered by Jaggers
during his individual work on the mine
during the past eleven years. Jaggers
removed 5000 worth of ore in that
period before selling to the company,
and at the 4O-foot level, which is the
greatest depth he had penetrated, was
still removing ore that assayed as high
as 500 ounces of silver and ounces Of
gold. Stock of this company, of which
L. L. Patrick is president, will be placed

bore has been driven for some distance,
and lime. Important developments may
be looked for from this portion of the
company's workings most any day
Splendid reports also come from the
Deadwood, where big bodies of highgrade
ore are being opened up and blocked out
The showing on the Centennial-Saphire
group is also reported to have materially

ground embraced in the townsite. The
requirements of the law are to be fully
met with and patent secured at the
earliest possible date so that clear title
may be given in transferring property.
