Lease Again
Pays Dividends

The fourth dividend OF $4,000
was paid by the Engineers Leasing
company, operating IN the Florence,
Monday, which brings the total up to
date of 100000. and all within the
short space of three months, says the
Goldfeld Tribune. The first ship
ment from the lease a made on
June II, and it means that this
amount of money has been earned in
ninety days, as settlements are usual
Nv one week behind times. The gross
value OF the ore that has been ship
ped and settled for is $650,000. The
production is not as heavy as it was,
but there is Sent out daily from forty
to fifty tons of a gross value OF
$4,000. AS the lease has another two
months to run it is safe to predict
that at least another dividend will be
Forthcoming, but payment may be de-
ferred to the expiration of the lease,
when there will be a final cleanup.
The net earning of the leasing com-
pany since shipments were started
has been $4,000 a day, and there is
money left in the treasury besides
| some 800 tons of ore in transit to
! the smelters that has not been heard
1 of.
This undoubtedly is a remarkable
record. even for Goldfeld. All the ore
t comes from above the 3O0-foot level
t and is being mined on a small block
S of the Florence lode, and almost I'M
d der the old office building. Nothing
IS has been neglected in keeping the
e ground in a safe condition. All OF
the ore shot down is of shipping
l. grade. There is little or no waste
n and the work Of sorting the quartz il
d done by a couple of men on eacf
.e shift. The dump is also being rur
through, and when time is called
lie there will be very little ore in th'
id underground workings or on top tina
1e will be worth going after.
e. Mr.. Taylor said last night: "Th'
gross output of the property will g,
Id better than %$850,OOO, but I hardl,
a think it will reach the million mark
sy as we are getting pretty well out o
ne ore. Still we are not ashamed of tn
ar record"

Diamond Queen
Has Rich Ore

RHYOL1TE, New, Sept 25.-The
winze on the south drift of the origi-
nal lease at the Diamond Queen is
again in a big body of ore, similar
to the ore from which two cars were
taken a few weeks ago. The lessees
have been following the ore Chin
ney, which dips steadily toward the
po~rphyry-lime contact for 40 feet.
Some ore has been encountered all
the way, and the heavy iron and
spar for the last 10 feet indicated an
ore deposit, which vas broken into
a few days ago. There has not been
enough work done as yet to deter
mine the extent of the ore, but it
looks as though the shoot was still
larger than the last and the grade of
ore seems to be better, but no as
says have beer taken on the new
find, as the lessees know the ore is
high grade shipping stuff and are
too busy taking it out to have any
tests made. A carload shipment
will be made soon
Strehilke & Scale, leasing on the
) Easter Sunday, will Don make a
/ carload shipment to the smelter.
) Mr.. Scale is looking for a hoist and
one will probably be secured the
coming week. and as soon as Install
ed the task of sinkingsthe shaft to a
depth of $50 feet viii be commenc-
ed. When this is done and the drift
r run to the ore this lease will be.
come a regular shipper.
8 On the May-Gray lease, sinking
o continues in the drift at the 65-foo
level. The ore is rapidly concen
o trating as the spar disappears, ant
it will not be long until this leas
e has use for the ore haulers. MI
le May will be down from Goldheld /
a few days and It is expected tina
e, when he comes arrangements will b
1t made for a hoist. in which ease tn
ny shaft will be sunk to at least 20
feet before any lateral work is bon.

Fine Ore Bodies
On the Daisy

President George B. Thatcher OF
the Round Mountain Daisy Mining
company and the Hon. George A.
Bartlett, one of the directors of the
company, made a flying visit of nj
spection to the property last Thurs
day.
Mr.. Bartlett stated that a vigor-
GUS campaign was about to be prose
cuted in order to interest eastern
capital in developing this splendid
ground and the chances are that in
the not very distant future the com-
pany will resume work again.
The company already has a shaft
which it has sunk to a depth of about
200 feet. The last 20 feet Of this
cuts through a quartz formation and
the nature or the rock at present is
a silicified slate carrying considerable
quantities of sulphides.
Installed over the shaft is a gal
bows frame with a 25-horse power
gasoline hoist, while a fully equipped
blacksmith shop and engine % are
a part of the property.
1t will be seen by this that the
company has everything at hand and
that all moneys now secured can be
devoted entirely to the work of de
velopment
In the mean time the Solid Gold
Leasing and Mining company have
lease on a large block of the Daisy
ground which has passed from tht
prospect stage into that of a regular
producing mine.
The main shaft of the Solid GolC
lease is down 125 feet at which poin
a drift has been run for a distance o
80 feet to the south.
This drift is cutting through
three foot body of ore which will rul
on an average of from SIS to $35 t
the ton of free milling gold ore
. Every little while solid gold seam
and stringers are encountered whic
go up into the fancy figures, blu
: these are not included in the averag
! figures given.
1t was only last week that some {
! these high-grade seams were encoui
tered and they are certainly beaut
Il full specimens. 1t was the report {
e this find that brought out Messr
; Bartlett and Thatcher and they wei
u highly elated, not only over the ia,
e that the property contained such ric
evidences of existing gold but MOI
n especially for the reason that eaC
/ day of development is proving Il
r fact that there is a tremendous boo
o of, low grade milling ore.
Drifting is also being done in Il
u old Madigan lease on a low graz
a. body of ore. It is estimated by 5
he p%erintendent William Madigan tn
the upper and lower dumps of t
is Solid Gold workings contain in t
neighborhood of 1900 tons of @
oil ready to put through the mill viii
he will average better than SIS to t
TO ton.
TO When asked how much ore
calculated there was in sight,
&c Madigan said: 81 haven't the fai
eh est idea, but there are thousands
IN tons as we have the ore in four

MS Drifting, sinking and crosscuttI

This is the day when the mayor will decide whether or not the city of New Haven shall have voting ma chimes Ten days ago the board of aldermen, by a vote of 3 to 5, de- clded in favor of the machines, and the time given to the mayor to de- termine his stand on the matter will expire tonight at midnight. Mayor Martin last night declared positively that he would not let the bill go through by failure on his part to act and whether he will approve or veto is the alternative which the day will discover There have been some per- sons who held the idea that the may or would allow the bill to become law by failing 10 act within the specified time, but he has no intention of doing anything of that kind.
 If veto comes from the mayors pen to-day. tnut VIII settle the fate of the machines in this city. One of the leading members of the board of al- dermen, who strongly favored the passage of the bill ordering the ma chimes. stated that the board would not pass the matter over an executive veto. Several prominent democratic members of the board, he declared, would not turn down the mayor on a veto of the bill, though they had vot- ed for it originally.

LABOR REPRESENTATIVE
One to Be Selected for Board of
 Education.

A meeting of labor union members Is 10 be held tomorrow evening in Union hall at 91 orange street at which time the 'project suggested at a meeting some time ago that repre- sentative of labor people be appointed to the board of education will be ta- ken up. To push the matter along 1t has been decided to present the name of q candidate to be appointed by the mayor as one of the two appointees which he must make in September The meeting will be held under the auspices of the New Haven Trades Council and will probably be largely attended. The matter becomes very important one on account of the prominence given to the composition and actions of the board of education and on account of the unusual step which this means in the matter of sug- gesting an appointment. Who the candidate will be has not been dl- vulged if he is known but when he has been selected 1t Is expected that all labor people will urge upon the mayor his appointment.

 The races could scarcely have been rowed with a finer setting The sun just dropping behind the high hills on the west bank tinged the lans scape with color and the breeding | thunder clouds to the northward | formed a background which was, al- though ominous, superlatively grand.
