The change for the better noted i'm To-

volume of business done was not heavy.
there was something about the trading

have nearly all improved during the past
two or three days and the Park City list
also looks better. Bingham propositions
have held their own and Alta companies.

of the Columbus Consolidated, have pre-
sented a strong front. Altogether the
market seems to have caught its second

REACHING ANOTHER VEIN
IN THE MOUNTAIN LAKE

A telephone message from Provo yes
terday brought the information that the
face of the Steamboat tunnel at the
Mountain Lake property. at the head of
Big Cottonwood and Snake creek was
all streaked up with iron and copper sui
phides and the superintendent considered
that he was reaching another ledge. The
report resulted in the stiffening of the
price Of Mountain Lake stock and orders
were untitled when the day closed.
Recently. it will be remembered. the
tunnel cut a fissure carrying from three
to six feet of ore rich in copper. silver
and gold. ore that is expected to average
5000 a ton. Nothing is being done i'm this
ledge at the present time. as the winter
force employed is needed to keep the
tunnel going ahead This avenue Is open
ing up that country at depth of 1000
to $500 feet and every time new ledge
is tapped il means something.

IRUS AT FAY MAKES
FINE GOLD STRIKE

The Irus property, at Deer Lodge. near
Gold Springs is the latest property to re-
port rich strike from that promising
country.
The Irus is owned by George Moody and
Milton Damron of Fay. In doing assess
ment work recently they uncovered a
blind ledge about a foot i'm width that
showed considerable free gold. A shaft
was put down a distance of twelve feet.
at which point it had widened to two
feet. The ore was found TO be rich in
gold and drift was started TO the north.
which has since been cut out into an open
cut for fifteen feet. The ore taken from
this averages $50 in gold while a siX-inch
streak on the hanging wall runs s101 in
gold. The ore is being sacked for ship
ment.
