MINING NOTES.

Mitchell-We regret to learn that
the parties who we're working this
mine near Pine Grove, with the
Intention of buying it if the result
OF prospecting operations justified,
nave concluded to quit Work was
suspended early last week, and every
thing is again at standstiIl at this
mine. The parties who were operat-
Ing it have left. They paid up every
thing. The suppositlon is that the
output of the milling tests tailed to
come up to their expectations. and
That they were not satisfied with the
outlook from financial point, and
concluded not to purchase.
Wheeler-The company operating
this gravel claim at Pine Grove we're
greatly encouraged few days ago in
picking out from the debris a fine
nugget. The value Of this chunk we
have not learned. They have not got
to hydraullcing yet, but were doing
some preliminary work when this
piece OF precious metal was uncover
ed. 1t tells them in unmistakabIe
tones that they are in a gold bearing
channel. They are naturally eIated.
and the general opinion is that the
undertaking is destined to prove
paying venture.
Zeila-Surface water from the
abundant rainfall is getting trouble
some. 1t takes about all night OF
steady hosting to control the water
that accumulates every twenty four
hours. The drift at the lowest level
l540 feet has not yet encountered the
ore body, although it has passed the
point where it was expected the ledge
would be encountered. The electric
power just installed at the mill works
charmlngly. For over one dav last
week the mill had to be operated. bv
