SpeCtion to that and other properties IN

ing and continued on to Rockford last
night. DIT. htmbaU, who talks IKE 4

judging from few words that he let fall.
is far from being "A stranger TO the call
ing. expressed sreat satisfaction with the
appearance of the property ana the man
ner in which il has been handled by the
Salt Lake management
I appreciate the fact. said the doctor
yesterday afternoon, that mines are not
made in minute. but / want 10 say that
good work has been done a the Superior
and the showing was far ahead Of any
thing ] expected to see, judging from the
reports that had reached me The smart
has been completed TO the SD-fOOt level
and the ledge is now being CTOSS-Cut there
and on the 30 level as we'll. Four feet of
good shipping ere is exposed on the 800
and the ledge looks strong and good
enough TO develop large bodies Of tine
ore at that depth. On the 1O0-tOOt level
Considera bic work has been done and
miners are now stopping in a fOur-inCh
streak of hiEh-grade for shipment On
end above this level there is now blocked
out I'm the thiTty-fOOt vein- not figuring
the hiEh-Erade streak mentioned, not less
than $4,000 worth of fine milling ore
ore which, if il was in one OF the nearby
camps to the smelters here, would be
cIassed as shipping ore Of good grade.
From the hish-gTade shoots shipments
have now been Inaugurated- the first load
going to the railroad on Monday While
development is progressing We expect to
keep two teams at least busy hauling out
this firSt-claSS ore, and by and by. when
our plans for the installation of a mill
have been perfected and plant has been
Installed at the mine. the road viii be
kept warm with ore teams
THE developments mentioned have been
done on the EXchequer claim. but that is
not the only one in which q fine showing
has been made Shipping ore : now be
ing mined on the COmpanys Iron Mask
and Hans Wagner claims. and there is
nothing TO suggest other than that they

Il am also much interested in the Ante

in shane 10 begin shipping next week. All
can say in conclusion Is that both prop
critics are all and more than they have
ever been represented to be and while
they are productive largely Of the hOmely
metals lead and silver. We would rather
Rave them than many Of the rich gold
mines over which the world appears to be
going crazy
The ore from these properties will most
likely find a market at the shelters here,
rather than at the Selby works, on the
coast
