THURSDAY, OCT. "a.
THE MINES.

in last week, not really enough
to make much of a showing in
print. Every ore bin in the camp
is full, but the operators are wait
ing for better prices. Then, too
operators who would sell are un-
able to get cars to load the ore.
It is believed the shortage OF
cars will not be as much nuisance
this fall, however, as last. The
report of ore sales follows:
Zinc Lead
Matthews & Co.. ....... $3.50 .....'
Baxter Royalty co...... ...... $3.50
LAO. Development Co. ...... 2'Sao
/. M. Rice & Co.. ...... ...... 1880
Total sales $3.50 $4,000
Values: Zinc. $I,7o2: lead, $I,o77; to-
tai, "a, BOG.
&c. Bryner is pushing devel-
opment in his shaft on the Bax-
ter Royalty land. The lead is
made in loose ground, and the
zinc in flint formation.
The Micawber is building a
new failing trough to take the
place of the one blown down, and
is making other necessary repairs
preparatory to starting up Its
mill.
Hannibal-St. Joseph and Qua
paw Lead and Zinc Combination
has a very large amount OF good
ore to 20 to. Its mill is now
ready and will be kept busy with
dirt from both properties.
Good Luck is still rolling out
the big blocks of zinc ore. This
ore is being sold right in the
rough without jigging-just pure
ore-that's all. d. D. Gill gets
bigger every day as the ore in
creases in size.
]. w. Watson is busy these
days arranging for the installa-
ton of a new boiler plant and
compressor at the Omaha mines.
Sufficient capacity will be put in
to give ample power for both the
Omaha and Hobo.
Several of the parties inter-
ested in the Lucille mine, west OF
the Mason, were here last week
inspecting the property and max
ing arrangements for further de-
velopment; also getting esti-
!. mates for a big mill.
Mr.. Peake is pushing the ed
velopment of the Big Chief rap
idly. The ore is looking better
as the sinking progresses, and
no doubt will improve right
along to the bottom of the ore'
which is twenty-seven feet thick.
Fred Worth has gotten the
Myrtle going again, and it is do
ing nicely. The new compressor
plant is doing fine. The i'm
provements throughout the plant
have added much to the produc-
ton, enabling the property to
run full time.
The Virginia has made good
progress with its new mill con-
struction, and will keep the
ground working right along so as
to have all the room possible
when the mill is finished, in or.
der that il may be kept running
at full capacity from the start.
Sunburst has several thousand
tons of fine ore on the dump and
isstili piiingeitup. No. 2 shaft
Is being equipped with new ma
chinery, preparatory to starting
this shaft working also. The
sore dumped at shaft No. 3 and
that at the Lancaster mill is no
doubt the richest ore yet shown

in the camp in such large quanti-
ties. The Lancaster dump con-
tains several thousand tons also.
Kramer-Morse sold a car load
of lead last week, and will have
two cars of zinc ready for mar
ket this week. This property is
showing better every day, prov
ing that the rich ore found in
drilling this lease is uniformly
distributed in all directions, dem
onstrating the making of a big
mine.
M. L. Douthat is drilling his
land just west of Tar creek on
the township line. Every indica-
tion of a big deposit is prevalent
on this land and we wish M. Z.
all kinds of good luck, as he is
among the first of the land own
ers to risk some of his own money
in helping to develop the new
field.
Newland Mining Co. has about
100 tons zinc ore in the bins ready
for loading and is turning out
more each day. The ore bed in
this property is pitching to the
southeast at such a degree that
another shaft will have to be
sunk at the low dip of the ore in
order to mine the full 30-foot face
which has been demonstrated.
At the Mason mine the mill
shaft is being sunk to the bottom
of the 27-foot bed of ore, which
| it is working. The sinking has
proven that the lower depth con-
tains even richer ore than the
upper portion of the ore bed.
This new sinking will add Il
feet more to the faces of drifts
which have already been driven.
The 3F is taking out very rich
ore from the S0-foot level, where
a drift is being driven to the west
of the mill; also from the drift,
| to the south. This is a daylight
mine, the ore having made to the
surface, and the taking out Of
the surface ore left an opening
all the way to the 40-foot level,
which is the top level being
worked.
The Lincolnville, is the latest
and possibly the richest shaft
strike made in sometime. 1t i:
located just east of Newlands
mill in the hollow. 1t has twelve
feet of much the same formation
as the Newland has and equally
as rich if not better, now devel
oped, while the drilling showed
I30-foot face of the same kind.
| The Mission has completed it.
