given to monument. with six months
to perform 240 cubic feet Of location
work on each claim.
The auto road to Ubehebe has been
completed by Jack Salsberry at con-
siderable expense, and several ma
chimes have been to the new camp
within the past few days.
Bob Lockhart, who is heavily in
terested in the district, has Just re-
ceived a report to the effect that an
excellent strike has been made on his
claims at Willow Springs, twelve
miles northwest Of the Randolph race
track. The material uncovered is
copper, it is stated, Of good grade.
George DeHart, who with Charles
Kane and other Rhyolite associates,
has several valuable groups in the
Ubehebe, returned Wednesday night
from the district bringing with him
some high grade r obtained from
the Maybe, situated three and one
half miles northeast of the Lost Span
ish and seven miles from Shively's
recent strike. The rock is jasper
quartz with lots of free gold sticking
over it. No assays have been made,
but Judging from the looks the ore
carries high values. The ledge, Mr..
DeHart says, carries good surface
strength, and he is of the opinion
that an immensely profitable body
can be opened with development.
The Ulida is another of the proven
properties of the district. This has
apparently an inexhaustible supply
of gold and copper ore. AS an evil
dence of its prosperity there Is 4
sign hung out before the yes of all
travellers which reads: Forty Men
Wanted"
The Paddle property, in the same
locality, is developing in great shape.
Twenty men are employed on the
ground.
Among the prospects of great
promise must be named the Wedding
Stake group of seven claims owned
by Chas. del Bondio, Joseph H.
Crook and other Rhyolite people, The
group is located on the east slope
Of the Ubehebe range. easily Access
sible from Race Track. 1t is on a
steep mountain that rises abruptly
from the Salton sink, and at the first
glance appeals to a mining man as an
ideal formation for tunnel work.

ALL EYES ARE On
SCHWABP PROPERTY
GREENWATER, WITH ALL OTH.
Frs, ARE WATCHING DE-
VELOPMENTs

While drifting eastward from the
%crosscut in Copper Queen shaft No.
3 Thursday night, the men encount-
cred a huge ledge of low grade ore
which was assured through and
through with copper sulphides of
the very richest grade. The sui
phides appeared in the form of cop
per glance and chalco pyrites, which
appeared in streaks across the en-
tire vein. The night shift deliber-
ately dumped this bonanza ore on
the dump, where it was eagerly taken
up by specimen hunters, and others
who are watching the developments
in this mine.
Jumps of this ore broken apart
showed the high grade pyrites, cop
per glance and cuprite, which is by
far the richest that has yet come
from a shaft. The drift in which
this occurred is on the 400-foot level
of this shaft and has been in ledge
matter for a long time. As soon
as the compact ledge is found in
place the engineers are certain that
1t will be composed largely of this
grade of matter, which win give a
most phenomenal per cent. Cuprite
runs as high as 80 per cent, being
the highest grade of oxide, while the
copper glance IS the highest grade
of oxide, while the copper glance is
the highest grade sulphide known
in copper ore.
The manager of the company, Jer-
ny Rourke, is very confident regard
ing the ultimate character of this
mine and was not at all perturbed
by the remarkable ore which comes
from the Queen shaft.
I'VE have lots of ore he OBJ
served casually, when shown the
rich specimens, and was not at all
backward in admitting that he felt
certain the large quantities when
once exposed would be Of a very rich
character.

ledge was sampled oyer a width OF
two feet in a prospect cut and re-

There are at least half a dozen
other good leads on the same proper

During therecent inspection five new
places we're found where free gold
is exposed in the outcrop.
The ledge matter is jasper quartz

The Lost Burro is only a prospect.

While the entire mining world is
watching ~Greenwater, to see in what
manner this great copper prospect is
going to spring its surprise, the ma
jority of men who are developing
mines in this district, and all the
people who are living in the district.
have their eye fixed upon the six
shafts of the Greenwater Death
Valley Copper mine, the largest
property in Greenwater and the best
developed. A ear has passed since
work on this property began. a for
tune of more than 100000 has been
sunk into the ground by this COM
pany, six shafts have been bored
down to a surprising depth between
the twelve parallel veins which cut
this mine, and now. without cry or
warning, the camp has taken an at
titude of expectation. All are GER
tain that something of Importance is
about to happen. II may truthfully
be said that Greenwater is awaiting,
almost hr~eathlessly. a climax. No
one is historical in this moment of
anticipation for the result is looked
upon in the light of a foregone con-
clusion, but nevertheless, all that are
observing Greenwater have their
eyes focused upon the Greenwater
Death Valley mine, and for good
cause,
No II doubts the intentions of
this company to make n copper mine
and ii such IA mine can be made ii
this district no one doubts for a mo-
ment that this IS the company that
has the money and ability to make
such a mine. The active development
work by this company during the last
few months has more than support
ed this faith. But 1t has done more.
Six shafts have been j%udiciously and
wisely sunk oil the main veins in the
property to a depth where they will
show within a few days how good
or how bad the mine is. Within the
next few weeks will demonstrate
largely whether the faith of SO many
great engineers in Greenwater has
been badly placed, or whether the
camp is really another Cananea, a
second Jerome. or perhaps greater
than both. And the work in this
mine of the last few weeks would in
dictate that Charles Schwab, John
Brock. Donald Gillies, Malcolm Mac
donald and one or two other mon
eyed men behind this mine are as
eager to learn the truth as are the
people of this town. Certain 1t Is
that every effort is being quietly
made TO find out just as soon as
crosscuts will demonstrate just what
this mine has. A few weeks, pos
sibly a few days. will tell much.
The deepest shaft is the Junction.
or Queen No. 2. sinking where 1t will
intercept the Queen and Copper
Glance veins. This shaft is 500 feet
deep and from it a crosscut is being
driven toward the interception OF the
two veins, The erosscut is out only
twenty-five feet while the vein is be-
lieved to lie at least $50 feet from
the rim of the shaft, so it will take
several weeks in this shaft to come
