MINES LOOK GOOD
IN E[KO COUNTY
Aura King Gold Mining Com
pany Making Excellent
Showing.
SENSATIONAL REPORTS
COME FROM PROPERTY
Section Is Apparently One of
the Richest in the
State.
Special TO The Tribune,

! Special TO The Tribune,
OGDEN. Aug. 27.-The fact that north
ern Nevada contains just as good and as
| expensive gold values as do the south
! western fields seems about TO be demon
! strated by an Ogden concern that has
| been operating in the northern part of
| EllSo county for the past Two years, the
properties being located on the Snake
| river watershed. where there is an abun-
dance. OF water and considerable timber
r, P. Hunter, president OF the Aura
King Gold Mining company, is In re-
ceipt OF samples that demonstrate that
there are as rich gold and silver values
in the district in which this Ogden COM
pany Is operating there are In the
southwest counties OF the same State.
Recent samples sent into him and
assayed in Utah showed values of 1S 90
ounces OF gold per ton. and from another
claim, the Tecumseh owned by the same
company, values OF over 81 ounces Of
silver per ton were obtained. The COM
papy has patents aud ownership on over
800 acres Of mineral claims in this vi
cinity. which is north and east Of Tus-
carora
Reports Sensational.
Some OF the reports from the section
are almost sensational. Beutley and
Blewett, who are operating the Jackpot
near the holdings Of the Aura King, have
recently opened into a large body OF ore,
which assays from $500 TO $4,000 in gold
per ton and which shows an important
body OF ores Of these values. The In
formation from J. j. Carmichael Vice
president and manager OF the Aura
King, is 10 the effect that the strike is
not only rich. but big. and he adds that
an influx OF miners, capitalists and pros
pectors has resulted. many OF them com
Ing from the Goldfeld and Bullfros dis
tricts,
What was particularly pleasing TO Mr..
Carmichael, however, WAS the fact that
the Bentley BleYett holdings are ad
Joining and apparently the continuation
of the holdings of the Aura King, where
there is continuation for $500 feet on
the same ledge. This same property Is
fully developed and the values are ex-
posed for the entire distance, but not
with the same high values, though val
ues as high as thirteen or more ounces
have been obtained The average values
of a three-foot vein seem to run about
$40 per ton, and is nearly free milling.
Mill in Operation.
The company has but recently over
hauled an old stamp mill that was on
the ground years ago, and now has five
stamps In operation. with tables for the
sulphurets The entire plant is oper-
ated with water power and there Is
enough water and timber in the region
for the successful operation of the mines.
Mr. Hunter states that the region af
fords better facilities for prospecting and
development than any part OF the south
western sections of the State, for these
reasons.
The stock OF the Aura King is held
principally in Ogden and vicinity. but
the stock books show that considerable
blocks are held In nearly every State In

The gaudy airs put on by some of the
college men fail to make a hit with the
foreigners in Murray. This was forcibly
demonstrated when two university stu
dents Travelled to the Smelter City flaunt-
ing their school colors in the form of two
little crimson caps which were set on the
back of the head Two Greeks looked with
suspicion on this style of headgear and
proceeded TO mix things with the collie
gians. Feeling the need of achievements
one of the Greeks uttered some magic
words and instantly a horde emerged from
every possible shelter and fastened to the
scene. The first assailants pointed to the
caps. the rest took the signal without
wCrd and began hostilities- The two hap
less youths managed after a struggle to
escape and started a foot race up the
State road toward the city of Zion with a
yeiping mob of foreigners in pursuit
Here is where their college training was
a godsend to them. Their fleet limbs
trained to defend their alma mater, came
to the rescue. Unlike their ancestors, the
Greeks of Murray weer not fleet of foot,
the gods had forsaken them. Mercury had
lent his speed to the college youths. and
Greece was defeated in the modern Mara

crimson stopped to catch their breaths in
the shades of the Granite stake taber-
nacle while far to the north the chimes
