SACKlNG RICH ORE
IN THREE PLACES.

Salt Lake, March 20.-That Fore
man Steward is sacking ore in three
different places on the properties of
the Amalgamated Nevada Mines &
Power company in the Blackhorse
district is the word that NJ V. Clay
brings from the camp. Mr.. Clays ar
rived in the city yesterday with lib
eral supply of samples from the lat
est strike on the Blackhorse group
which was made only few days ago
by placing couple of shots at a
point 20 feet from the shaft that is
being put down on the big vein.
No assays have yet been obtained
but the spatters of gold in the rock
make it evident that the foreman was
conservative when he estimated the
values at from $500 to $500 ton.
Ore is being sacked not only from
this strike but from one side of the
shaft that is going down in the
Blackhorse vein and from rich
streak in the San Pedro mine. The
Blackhorse shaft, 4x7 in dimensions,
is all in ore. the main body of which
runs about $50 a ton, but in one side
lead of the picture rock has been
found.
The crosscut tunnel to catch the 4
inch vein of high grade opened at the
surface is well under way. 1t will
tap the vein at about so feet depth
in running so feet The vein has
been opened for | , feet and shows no
signs of diminution in size or values
Indications of Permanence.
The foreman who ordinarily is the
personification of conservatism. and
self possession, actually became eX-
cited, Mr.. Clays says, when the rich
vein was uncovered The indications
of permancncy of values along with
the size of the values makes 1t in his
opinion the most important strike
chat has ever been made in he dis
trict
The entire district is looking bet
ter than ever says Mr.. Clays, and no
longer is there any question of its
permanency. The San Pedro mine
has done a great deal toward proving
this. its showing improving virtually
with every foot of depth gained in
tunnels and shafts.

TWO OGDENITES TELL OF
VISIT TO GREATER ELY

Ogden, March 22.--John S. Lewis
and John Adams who have been to
Ely for a few days have returned to
this city very much impressed with
the future of that great copper camp
Business and progress are noted ON
every hand and there is no labor
trouble. everything is going ahead
with great rapidity. The new town
site is going ahead all right and there
is considerable good natured rivalry
between the old and the new that is
resulting in the building up of both.
Everyone is prosperous and work
is noted in every direction
Several extensive enterprises are
contemplated or in progress. The
Guggenheims are spending lots of
money. A new depot costing between
SIS 1000 and 100000 is assured; a
great hotel worth 100000 and a big
system of waterworks are already on
the way. Cottages are going up by
the hundred, the smelter people be-
ing engaged in constructing several
for their wdrkmen.
Both Ogdenites are optimistic con.
corning the future of the place and
say that it is going to be one of the
greatest camps in the west

CHURN DRILLS Al
ELY ARE COMMON.

Salt Lake, March 20.-The use of
chun drills is becoming a common
sight at Ely, and there are numerous
companies that are now employing
this method of prospecting their pos
sessions, stated NJ. Johnson Tuesday,
upon his return to Salt Lake from the
great copper camp of White Pine
county. Mr. Johnson states that util
ization of the churn drill is simpli-
tying the process of searching at a
depth for precious metals, and at the
same time it is extremely econom-
cal. This process costs about SO a
foot, while to sink a shaft to a cor
responding depth would cost any
where from $15 to $40 a foot.
As for Ely, Mr. Johnson states that
too much can not be said of the prop
critics there The recent strike of
ore in the Alpha shaft at a depth of
1000 feet demonstrates to everyone
familiar with the same that Ely val
ues extend to great depths. Then the
values of the ores being found on all
sides with depth easily establishes
the camp as a high grade district as
wei las a milling one. The town of
Ely is growing like a mushroom, says
Mr. Johnson On all sides one hears
the click of the hammers, and lots
that have changed hands recently as
many times as five have raised in
value $1,000 each time. Some lots
that cost Mr. Johnson 5000 short
time ago are now worth $4,000. The
character of building going on in the
camp and the character of develop
ment work being accomplished in the
mines is of the most permanent char
acter, and will endure for years.
Duck Creek, states Mr.. Johnson, is
proving its worth more and more as
the various companies get to work on
their properties. The Ely Gibraltar
with which he is connected, has an
ample treasury for all purposes, and
the work will soon be on in greater
earnest than ever with the coming of
better weather.
