More Machinery at Grand Central Mine.

The company operating the Grand
Central Mines has decided to place an
air compressor in the buildingj for the
purpose of running some Waugh air
drills that are to be placed in the drifts
and slopes. 1t is expected to arrive
some time this week and will be a
l0xl2xl4 compressor, capable of hand
ling all the drills that will be installed
in the mine. This will be a great i'm
provement to the working capacity of
the mine and much more ore will be
mined than has been done heretofore.
At present they are cross-cutting in
the east 500-foot level and have struck
a three-foot vein of good ore that prom
ises to run very high. In the west drift
there is a 20-inch vein of smelling ore
besides some milling:dirt. A. j. Saw
yer and Mr.. Osgood of Rhode Island
were here the latter part: of, last week
to examine the property and seemed
well satisfied with the outlook. The
company held stockholders meeting
in Denver Monday evening and the
above improvements is the result of
some of their deliberations.

EnqelberQ 375 Feet Deep.

The contractors have theNEngelberg
mine, which is situated inSQuartz valley
district, S75 feet deep now. This COM
pletes the next to the last section of the
lift that is contemplated and when the
next section is lifted the shaft will be
down distance of 400 feet. Here lev
els will be started and if the ore war;
rants will be run further, although after
the levels are started sinking will again
be commenced and the mine sunk deep
er. There is nice crevice to work on
and every once in a while test ship
ment is sent to the mills in Black
Hawk. The last.test which was made
week or two ago gavelreturns of two
and one-half ounces gold to the cord.
This is pretty goodi:showing and the
ore seems to be increasing in value a.
they go further down.

Gold Collar Resumes Operations.

All arrangements have been complet-
ed and Monday the Gold Collar mine in
Prosser gulch resumed the activity this
mine has enjoyed in the past. The
shutdown of the past month or more
was made to fix up the business matters
of the company and prepare for the ex-
tensive operation of the property. The
mine is now equipped with good sub
stantial shaft house and machinery, the
latter consisting of the boiler and en-
gine and new air compressor, which
will be used constantly from now on.
The shaft will not be sunk for some
time, but probably later on more depth
will be obtained. Miners have been
put to work in the 400 and 50O-foot lev
els, both east and west and machine
drills will be used to do the drifting and
stoping. Two machines are now in use
and two more are expected, some time
this week. These levels will be ex-
tended good ways and much virgin
ground opened up. After little de-
velopment work is done more miners
will be added from time to time.

Castro Mine 10 be Sunk,

AT the Castro mine on Winnebago hill
the shaft is being cleaned out prepara-
tory to sinking another lift. The water.
which has been holding them back for
some time from attempting to sink, has
virtually stopped coming into the shaft
and is going down over a foot every
shift. Since the spring break up has
passed the mine does not make hardly
any water. The shaft has been clean
ed out to the 400-foot levels where the
water now stands, and there is about
10 feet more to go, it is estimated. The
real depth is not known as the mine has
not been worked for so long that the
last parties working there have left or
forgotten the depth. When the bottom
is reached levels will be run besides
sinking the shaft another lift or two.
In the levels above not much work is
being done as it interferes considerably
with the sinking. The shipments of
ore, which have kept one battery busy
at the Buell. mill the past month, have
been discontinued while the develop
menu work Is beng done. However, a
cross-cut is being driven south in the
15O-foot west level to intersect the
Dean vein, which is owned by the
operators of the Castro property. Af-
ter the vein is encountered, drifting
will be commenced on the same and
cross-cuts run to the same vein further
down in the shaft. This will open
very large amount. of territory and big
shipments from here can then be ex-
pected. Drifting is also being done in
the 20Ofoot level where there is a good
streak of ore. This ore will be piled up
IN the level until a later day. This
mine is owned and operated under the
personal management of Alfred Ander-
son, of Central City, who is a practical
miner of many years experience.

New Company 10 Work Saratoga.

incorporation papers were filed with
the secretary of state Wednesday for
the Saratoga Mining, Smelling and Re-
duction company, with a capitalization
of 81, 900, 900, divided into 10, 900 shares
of the par value of $l0O each, says the
Idaho Springs Siftings.
The company was organized for the
purpose of taking up the bond on the
big Saratoga group of mines in lower
Russell district, consisting of nineteen
claims, which have been developed by
nearly ten miles of shafts and levels.
The property is now held under lease
and bond for $500, 900, and it is intended
to provide for taking up the bond and
absorbing the stock of the Saratoga De-
velopment company, which has been en-
gagged in unwatering the big mine by
driving a lateral on the vein from a
point three miles in from the portal of
the Newhouse tunnel. This lateral has
already been driven nearly half mile
and the water has all been drained from
the mine workings. On account of gas,
access cannot be had to the mine work
ings below the seventh level where are
located the largest and richest ore bod
les in the property.
The raise was started from the latera
as an open stope to connect with the
tenth level, and when this is completed
it will furnish excellent ventilation botl
for the mine workings and for the New
house tunnel. The open stope was car
ried to heighth of nearly a hundre,
feet and while the work was in progres
very little waste rock was extracted
everything between walls being of
smelling grade. 1t is said that for tn

DOWN SHAFT
Willie Rowe Meets Sad Death
While Working in the
Fisk Mine.

Willie Rowe, IL years of age, was in
stantly killed Monday morning by fall
ing down the Fisk mine. He was work.
ing in the 400foot level with his
grandfather, Samuel Walters, who is
leasing in the Fisk. An ore car was
standing in the level near the shaft and
it was while attempting to push this
farther into the level that the lad
met with the sad accident. Instead of
pulling the car a sufficient distance
away from the shaft to enable him to
get firm footing on solid ground back
of the car, the boy stepped on some
boards covering the shaft. These gave
way as he was in the act of moving the
car, allowing him to fall through. He
fell from the 400 to the 5OO-foot level.
When brought to the surface it was
discovered that in falling the neck, both
arms and legs had been broken and the
body was almost torn in two at the
stomach. Coroner Asquith was sum-
moned and the corpse was removed to
Harris undertaking parlors.
An inquest was held Tuesday, the
verdict of the jury being ''That Will
liam Henry Rowe came to his death
through an accident by falling from the
400 to the 5OO-foot level in the Fisk
mine in Gilpin county, state of Colo
rado, on the oath day of June, 1907, and
while the accident was not unavoidable
the blame cannot be put upon anyone
about the mine"
Willie Walters was born and raised
in this city and had many friends among
his associates at school. He made his
home with his grandmother and grand
father in Mountain City. The funeral
was held this afternoon at 100
O'Clock.

STRUCK BY
LIGHTNING
Mike Rosetti is Killed During
an Electrical Storm at
Twelve Mile.

The body of Mike Rosetti, an Aus
trian living at Twelve Mile, west of
this city, was found near the Moose
mine Sunday afternoon by his daught-
ers. The man had been missing since
Thursday last. At that time he is sup
posed to have taken his gun and gone
hunting. When found the head of the
man was considerably bruised and it was
first thought that he had been murdered.
The body was brought to this city late
Sunday evening by Undertaken Harris
and Monday morning an examination of
the corpse was made by Coroner As
quith. The head was badly singed as if
by fire and the lower portion of the
body, from the head to the bottom of
the feet, was burned almost black. Cor
oner Asquith concluded that it being so
apparent that the man was struck by
lightning no inquest was necessary.
People residing at Twelve Mile claim
that last Thursday evening severe ell
ectrical storm visited that section and
think that Rosetti was returning from
his hunt and had reached a point near
the dump of the Moose mine, when the
lightning struck him. When the body
was found the shotgun which Rosetti
had been carrying was lying across the
mans chest and his hat was picked up
about thirty feet away with the crown
burned out.
Rosetti had been living at Twelve
Mile with his two daughters and at the
time he was killed these were in Apex
visiting with a sister, Mrs. Tony Andri-
etti. They returned to their home Fri
day and found the house locked and
We're compelled to break in the door to
gain admittance. 1t occurred to them
then that something must have hap
pened to their father, and as he didn't
show up by Sunday morning search
was made. 1t was late in the afternoon
of Sunday when the body was found.
Mike Rosetti had been resident of
the county upwards of forty years and
had been living in the Twelve Mile sec

past ten weeks an average of hundred
tons of ore were shipped every week
which gave returns of from S11 to s15
net per ton.
Ihe stope system was abandoned the
first of last week and instead a crew
OF three eight-hour shifts has been en-
gagged to put through the raise at as
early date as possible. 1t is claimed
that the connection can be made with
less than thirty-five rounds of holes.
While the raise is being made, another
crew OF men has been put to work on
the breast of the lateral and it will be
continued to the end lines of the Sara
toga property, where later another con-
nection will be made with the mine
workings above.
The driving of the lateral from the
Newhouse tunnel has opened up dozen
ore shoots and some of the mineral re-
turned values of 43 ounces in gold or
$3.50 per ton. AS the mining of ore at
any place in the lateral would interfere
with driving ahead, no attempt at ore
extraction has been made until the raise
stope was started some three months
ago. All of the smelling ore in the
Saratoga mine carries a good percent
age of copper and it is product greatly
desired at the smelters on account of its
fiuxing character.
The ore production of the Saratoga
mines is variously estimated at from
So, 900, 900 to 5000, 900, and it is likely
that the latter figure is more nearly
correct. 1t is without doubt one of the
best veins in the ''richest square mile
on earth,' and is one of the largest,
strongest mother fissure veins in Gilpin
county. The average value of the pro-
duct runs from an ounce to two ounces
gold per ton, and while large quantities
Of the ore have been tested by the var
ious methods of amalgamation and con-
centration, it cannot be said that either
of these methods made a close enough
saving to overcome the extremely mod
est smelling charges allowed for the
material at the smelters.
The capital stock of the new company
will be divided into three blocks. Five
thousand shares will be used for the
purchase of the mines; two thousand
shares for working capital as treasury
shares, and three thousand shares will
be used to take up the capital stock of
the Saratoga Development company
and to acquire additional property,
tramways, mills or smelling works as
provided by the charter.
The incorporators of the company are
John Owen, Ben. 7. Owen and E. L.
Regennitter, but the permanent officers
will be as follows: President and Gen
eral Manager, John Owen, Idaho Sp'gs;
vice president, E. A. Whitfield, New
York City; secretary-tr treasurer, H. T.
Rodgers, New York City. The board
of directors will consist of the above
named. and E. T. Bragaw, J. w. Peck
EFT, Jr., c. L. Bleakley and George l.
Thompson, prominent New York City
financiers, who are interested in the
present Saratoga Development COM
pany.
