BEAVER COUNTY'S
new BONANZA
Revenue Mining Company Has
One of the Biggest Propo-
sltions Imaginable.
NOT FAR FROM NEWHOUSE
OWNED By SALT LAKE OPER-
ATORS EXCLUSIVELY.

For practically four and one-half
years the Revenue Mining company
has been noiseIessIy developing and &C
curing ground in Beaver county that
little has been learned about it's ac-
complishments. The company has pat
enred over thirty claims, and owns
seventy more on which patent has not
yet been secured. This means that it
has over 1000 acres of mining ground
an one solid block. Not only that, but
II has thousands Of tons of ore blocked
out In workings which aggregate more
than 5000 feet. and has thousands Of
tons more IN the bins and on the dumps
The proposition is owned almost ex-
ciusfvely In Salt Lake L. S. Hills and
other prominent capitalists are prom
tnently identified with the enterprise,
which is being managed by l. G.. Bur-
ton
Henry Schepers, who has been super
tntendent in charge of the work for
nearly all the time, and who has just
resigned In order to come out of the
wilderness and make Salt Lake his
home. talked about what had been ac-
complished yesterday afternoon. The
mines are located IN the Pine Grove
district. bordering the Nevada state
sine, and about eighteen miles south OF
west from Newhouse, in Beaver coun-
~, north OF the Moon iron mines. On
the property IS @ big stream of water,
millions OF feet Of growing timber and
millions Of cords of wood suitable for
steam-making purpose and domestic
fuel. The company operates its own
sawnill and has erected many build
lngs, including two boarding houses,
several dwellings, bunk houses, black
smith shops carpenter shops, etc, as
well as a mill building which is now
practically ready for the installation of
machinery.
Four tunnels on the property are in
over 500 feet each and a network of
true assure veins that cut through the
quartZite, pOrphyry and into the lime.
Running at right angles are several
great contacts between the formations
mentioned and great bodies of ore have
already been opened. Samples from
two OF the great bins that are now filled
with milling rock gave assay returns
as follows: No. 1 showed As per cent
lead $500 ounces silver and $500 in
gold, while the other ran 26-5 per cent
lead 90 ounces silver and $1,000 in gold
This ore comes from what is known as
the South Side ledge, where large
quantities of ore that carries 43.5 per
cent lead. 1876 ounces silver and 1920
in gold is ready for stopping. Another
shoot in the same vein is now being
stopped and the ore runs 1873 per cent
ledQ. ala ounces SILVER anu % III SOlu
This ore will go to the mill dumps and
bins.
In the Cliff ledge $40 feet of ore has
been opened from a 2OO-foot shaft
which carries several feet Of ore that
averages Al per cent lead, 1S6 ounces
silver and $3.50 in gold per ton. while
with It is a mass of milling ore valued
at about $45 per ton. The company is
getting ready TO do things in that re-
zion.

NEVADA HILLS SHIPMENT
Sells Two Carloads of Ore That Is
Worth Nearly
$4,000.

The Nevada Hills company yesterday
marketed two carloads of ore and.
while the management was unwilling
to release particulars on smelter re-
turns, enough data was released to
make 1t plain that the two consign-
ments must have enriched the company
to the extent of close to $50, 900. One
car was the shipment made on the 7th
of last month, and which was delayed
many days somewhere In transit. The
control assays on that car showed 7.S6
ounces in gold and 1887 ounces silver
per ton. or a valuation of considerably
better than $500 tons, gross. The sec
ond carload, the one shipped on Sept.
10, assayed 3-56 ounces gold and 303.S
ounces silver, or approximately $210 a
ton. AS the company has been in the
habit of loading better than thirty tons
TO car, it is seen that the above eSti-
mate Of the two carloads is not far
from the amount stated in the begin
ming of this item.
Treasurer w. v. Rice stated yester-
day that the company's experience IN
getting the high-grade car through was
enough to last for long time, and that
hereafter there would be no shipments
made in that way. 1t was probable that
the extremely rich ore would continue
to be sacked separately, and If It was
II would be sent through with the or
binary grades In such q manner that
there would be nothing to distinguish
1t from the lower-grade material Such
precautions, 1t was considered, would
be necessary to protect the company
from the theft or possible changing of
sacks after the ore had left the mine.
These two carloads OF ore from the
Nevada Hills property have provided
enough money to pay a $4,000 dividend
and then leave a good surplus. 1t is
evident that the mines of that district
are going to produce something better
than hot air if the Nevada Hills is to
be taken as an example Of what others
NAV vet do.

Average January Weather.

January is always a dreaded month
by the people of the Ohio valley. Du-
ring that month as a general thing
the coolest weather of the winter is
experienced. +. J. Walz. of Louis
Vile, district forecaster of the wealth
er bureau, has compiled data for thir-
ty-three years, period during which
the weather bureau has been estab-
lished at Louisville. During that
time the mean or normal temperature
was thirty-four degrees which was in
the neighborhood of freezing. The
warmest month was in 1850. with an
average of fifty degrees. The coldest
month was in 1888 with an average
OF twenty-five degrees. The highest
temperature recorded in that period
was on January ~, 1890. when the
thermometer registered seventy-two
degrees. The coolest day was on
January 5, 1884. when the mercury
registered twenty degrees below zero.
The greatest amount of rain was In
January 1876. when 1163 inches
fell. The least amount fell in 1895,
when only O2 Of an inch fell.
The coolest weather on record for
Paducah was Feb. II, 1903, when the
