: Somewhere in that ancient repository

it is writ that "God moves in mysteri
Gus ways His wonders to perform
Admitting the tenability of the state
ment, the strange anomaly of a news
paper man really getting thorough,
into the money does not appear so won
drous strange. The musical jingle OF
] the twenty dollar pieces in the pocket
of Joe Jordan, editor of the Rawhid,
News, is yet, however, so unaceustome,
a sound upon the t%ympanums of him
self and confreres in the local repor
torial field as to be somewhat discon
certing. Be it known that Jordan is, OF
rather was the owner of a lease on the
Mascot claim. Jordan recently separ
ated himself from the lease for an
equivalent of $4,000 cash and 10000
shares of stock in the Queen Mascot
Mining company, the corporation tax
ing over the holding. At a depth of AZ
feet the working corps is extracting
ore having n value of from $4,000 to
$4,000 the ton across a width of six
inches, the streak being contained in a
two-foot shoot of high grade shipping
rock. Two grades of ore are being
sacked, the lower having a value of
5000 the ton. Aside from the Jordan
lease the Queen Mascot company is the
owner of a two-third interest in the I'VE
Mascot claims. The holdings are
located in the very heart of the pay
zone and are considered class A mining
propositions.
That Grutt Hill Mint
Shaffer and associates must have had
a bunch when they named the company
Incorporated for the purpose of working
a holding on the Wild West claim, the
Grutt Hill Mint. The holding is a mint
good and plenty; a mint of Natures
own fashioning and wherein she has de-
posted a wealth of golden treasure. At
a depth of LAG feet the shaft has pene-
trated an ore body for a depth of 33
feet, every pound of quartz hoisted up
the shaft being high grade shipping
average. Both walls of the working
medium are in ore, the latter being
streaked with seams that are plastered
full with free gold. In the bottom of
the shaft is showing a 1h-inch streak
which is almost the equal in treasure
of the famous seam in the Kearns No.
2 lease workings on the Queen estate.
Two men are engaged in sacking the
product. The higher grade has a value
ranging between $1,000 and $4,000 the
ton, and the latter a value of from 5000
to $500 the ton. This lease is really the
marvel of the camp, depth and develop
ment considered. 1t is picked by local
mining men as one of the big winners
of the present summer.
Shipments From the Queen
Two shipments of high grade ore
went out this week from the Kearns
Nos. l and 2 leases on the estate of the
Rawhide Queen Mines company. They
were in amount of thirty.fve tons each,
that from the last mentioned having an
average value of $500 the ton and that
from the first mentioned a value of $3.50
the ton. The ore was billed to Utah
smelling points. From the Kearns No..
] a small consignment of $50 ore went
out to the Gates Tyrer mill. Develop
ment is progressing at both the hold
ings under the most satisfactory min
eral conditions, as at each is exposed on
every level a large and marvelously
gold enriched body of ore.
Rawhide New York
Lessees operating on the estate of the
Rawhide New York Mining company
are mining an excellent grade of milling
ore and are piling it on dump until such
time as a local reduction market is af-
OIutu. Int dNSidSc iidoc IL jim
what in excess of $27 the ton. Below
ground the ~lessees are blocking out a
large reserve upon which they will draw
for operating expenses as soon as ado
quate milling facilities are established
here. There is not a ~lessees on the
acreage who could not ship at profit to
local mill
Rawhide Florence
Thirty-fve dollar per ton rock is the
rule at the lessee blocks on the estate
of the Rawhide Florence Gold Mining
company. A large tonnage of that
grade ore is being blocked out in lessee
workings and is being oiled on dump
1t will go to stamp just as soon as tho
milling plants nov in course of eos
struetion here are in commission. As a
high grade milling proposition the aeie
age of the Florence company is the peer
of any in the west end Of he belt.
