Park Mining Notes.
Ozark Record

Hugh Connolley, for some time machin-
list at the DAILY Judge, has severed his
connection with that company.
John Thompson has been succeeded as
master mechanic at the Daily Judge by
W. S. Mcfarland of Freeland, Pa Mr.
Mcfarland has been employed at the On
tario since his arrival here three weeks
ago.
The Wabash has been closed down all
week on account of lack of coal, and I'M
less the scarcity of that article now pre-
vailing is soon overcome. other properties
will suffer temporary suspension of oper-
atoms
The new engine at the DAILY Judge mill
is just about in place and steam will prob
ably be turned in next week. This plant
is still grinding away steadily and turning
out some very high class concentrates.
Work at the st. Magnolia goes
steadily ahead, and as time goes on the
new machinery settles down better and
better in its operation. Barring unfor-
seen difficulties development work will
now be prosecuted without further inter-
ruptiOn.
Work progresses nicely at the newly in
corporated- Iowa Copper company's Cot
tcnwood DISTRICT property, and the last
two days the showing has been most
encouraging one. A nice body of high
grade silver-Iead-copper ore has been un-
covered and indications are that there is
plenty more to follow. A big block of
stock has been bought up by local peO-
pie.
Shipments from the old Valeo property,
which is being worked on a lease held by
Evans brothers and Ike Rogers, are being
made to the snelters via Heber and the
Pine canyon Rio Grande road. The leasers
are equipped for a campaign of work to
continue through the winter. and are con-
fident of making good in their under
taking.
Reports coming from the Nelson-Queen,
Eikhorn district property, are most en-
cCuraging, and the returns from the ship
ment to be made from there in the near
g.1r-v Tod rr-ffl
prospects in this section are also not be-
Ding forgotten. Prominent among these is
the Brown Eagle, upon which extensive
and systematic development work is soon
to be done.
Final payments were made this week
to MesSrs. W. J. Hall, Kelly and Johnson
for the Hall group of claims in Thaynes
canyon, which have now passed into the
control of the Silver King Consolidated
company. This company now has few
men prospecting on the claims and expects
to develop them to such an extent that
they will be justified in putting in a COM
piete plant at the property and work on
an extensive scale
Ii is highly probable that the DAILY West
com pany will declare an extra Christmas
dividend The mine is in better shape to-
day than it has been for three years past.
New ore bodies of great dimensions have
been opened up of late, and the company
is consequently piling up grand treasury
surplus. while at the same time regular
dividends are being paid and virgin
ground is being explored continuously.
According to all reports and indications
the best days of the Daily West are yet
to come.
Despite the fact that progress is some
what hampered by an abundance of va
ter due to the drain tunnel trouble, work
is being vigorously prosecuted at the
American Flag, and shipments, the re-
turns of which more than meet mining eX-
penses, are made from the property. The
ore in the Flag is of very rich character
and a little of it goes a long way. This
is not to say that the Flag has but a lit
tie either as on the LOCO and 100 levels,
partjcularly ore deposits have opened up
in splendid shape. Everything is in readi-
ness for the winters work.
